536. After the story is all done, how does or should the SC come across to the reader?

Different if needed or planed for.
It depends on the Story and what it dies to the SC's in question for Star Ryde my plan is that the crew SCs as much as the MC's grew different. Some closer some more apart and as with my general MCs , SCs, ACs & even BCs their lives have moved on & for some it will have become better, for some worse and I hope that I bring that convincingly into my story. Overall the rule is nobody is save from time, time changes things. And I'm not the nicest person if it comes to sending characters to hell and back, sometimes they are lucky and I only send them hell in German... 😈

537. What perspectives or beliefs have you challenged with this WIP?

Not sure I do any other than my own.

Maybe I am good enough for people to rethink families and human behavior. Maybe I'm just repeating all the tropes.

Let me answer this when it's finished...

Christmastime is the worst time for me to answer such questions especially this year seems even more different in a not good way.

#PennedPossibilities 537. #StarRyde #Writing #SciFi #WIP

538. What language(s) does your SC speak?

All ~ 38 ish SC's speak Terran Standard/Terran High & Union Standard/Union High. For the same reasons the MC's do. Some extra languages exist.

See Penned Possibilities 529 or here linked directly, for the MCs.

539. Christmas Eve Edition: You’re the Secret Santa for one of your SCs. What do you give them? (As a fellow character, not the author.)

So this HAS to happen in the Star Ryde Self Insert Romance Alternate Universe I briefly touched on and created in my head only to justify my personal interactions with my characters and thanks to the prompts here.

A collection of SciFi books from the Afterlife/Purgatory.
Simply so she can see the vast works that are done in this field and widen her view on things.

540. Holiday Edition: Who would your MC kiss under the mistletoe?

No Misteltoe's survived into the 24. Century. That said kissing is a mostly Terran habit of strengthening individual immune systems, thus is recommended to kiss A LOT.
Do to the fact that a plenty of, for us, new species could be hazardous to others and us, and kissing for Terran's and Terra living Xeni is something special,* a special filtration mask was invented, it's basically a sort of mouth condom.
It needs to be fit for every species specially but allows incredible kisses without any risk or benefit like immunity boosting.

*Some age old first stories of Terrans was how they defended their foes via eating their mouthes and stealing their souls.
It was later translated into Terran Standard as Kiss me a spacer which sounds way more pleasant if miss leading...

541. SC POV: What is the worst emotion a being can feel?

Silas Crosby, Security Chief:

"Loneliness, despair, knowing that no one will remember your story, for long.
Even your child's and their child's will forget you sooner rather than later, two lifetimes and mostly all of us are gone forever, relegated to an ass old pic someone randomly finds on a weird day. All our stories will end untold, everything we feel, who we are, what makes our lives des matter, will fade, everything we learned, what we are.

That is why I made it my call to protect others. So their stories live longer, so their lives last longer, so they can fill it with more people that will remember them before the universe finally deletes their story. And by upholding peace and fighting for them I can be a footnote in history for maybe a generation longer... maybe my story can inspire someone."

542. Is the reader supposed to root for the MC, have no feelings towards them, or want them to meet their demise by the end of your WIP? MCs aren't always the "good guys," of course.

As much as I want them to be liked I am not in control of this.
I have a certain ideal picture of them that is not that of a perfect person, but if I a) can portray it as it is in my mind is one thing and b) how people perceive her is another.
I try my best to show them not as Mary Sue or Gary Stu* and keep them consistent enough that (other than in cases that they aren't if their limit is reached) people know at least in general what to expect.

How exactly this will end up in the view of the reading Person is different for almost everyone.

543. MC POV: What is one of your happiest memories?

Kira, pulled Arkham on to her lap, pressing her belly against the others women's back, her nose and mouthe next to Arkham's shoulder and neck.
And her eyes beamed with light as she smiled.
"You know if you had told me, that I find myself in a relationship with a crew member that doesn't even feel romantic interest in others... Well I would have been surprised."

Arkham smiled while folding her fingers between Kira's over her belly.
"Ask me what I would have thought and I would have laughed. Yet here I am rooting for you like a lovesick teen not believing that I feel this and grateful for having that opportunity."

"Oh I'm m a opportunity? Does this make you an opportunist?" She playfully bit Arkham's neck, a shiver ran through Arkham, she moaned softly, Kira's lips formed a ...

#PennedPossibilities 543 #StarRyde #KiraKnox #Arkham #writing #SciFi #WIP #relationships

a smile on Arkham's goosebumbed skin.

Arkham leaned forward to escape this pleasure trap her Commander definitely only set up to make her blush. "Hnghf... noo, you are a treasure." Arkham slipped her hands away & in a swift motion stood up, turned around & sat down on Kiras lap again, her arms slung around the taller woman's neck now having to look up to Arkham, gently pressing her forehead against Kira's. "You are my treasure." Arkhams eyes piercing intensity flooded Kiras body with joy. "And I'm lucky that I found you." Arkham's hands slid to Kira's cheeks & gently grabbed on to her lovers face. "Permission request to kiss my Captain?" She whispered softly.

Kira felt her breath tingling over her own lips closing her eyes she whispered: "Granted."

Kira opened her eyes. The room was sterile, almost cold & the cuffs where tight.

544. Decide on a favorite character of yours and tell us this: What is something that makes them stand out among your other characters, and why do you love them so much?

How cruel only one...😅🤪

Mondira Ramann, a) she only exists in her current form, as she is, thanks to the prompts here. b) I have her set up to be from a Cyberpunk Dystopia Rim World, that is pretty close to ours. She understands the values of working in Union with the Union & believes that it is the key for the Rimworlds to survive this war even if the mercenary forces do quite well against the Eltaryn. She only joined the Unions Alliance because of this & despite of her proud Rim Mother. The trust in the Union isn't there but she believes in the Alliance & uses her position to support her family.

She brings a diverse POV & for me makes it easy to relate to her, since she pretty much comes from today, a time traveler in a way without being one.
#PennedPossibilities 544 #StarRyde #MondiraRamann
#Writing #SciFi #WIP

I just can't stay with one...😅
Next to Mondira I really like how Arkham forms in my head.

As her romantic growth mirrors my own very much, even if I ended up on another pov and could even be seen as a self insert to a point.

I don't want her to bee seen as an confused asexual/aromantic finally getting "normal" but a representation of my own journey to understand where I started and where I'm currently now. I had a rough time awakening to my own needs becausey only pictures of relationships and live what's pretty much one sided hetero normative and even after I realized that I was part of the queer community shaped by monogamous one sided portraits of people like me. I can't wait to get her story written fully and even if i cut it out, from my point of viewi really like her, I'm not as good as pilot or a dancer as she might be, maybe not as impulsive as she might be, not as young anymore. But she feels especially close to my heart.

545. If your MC was asked what ‘humanity’ means to them and how they would describe it, how would they answer? Do they love or hate humans?

Kira: "I dislike them, humans are an outdated species concept for a monkey tribe that almost roasted its home planet.

Terran is a more intelligent approach. You are Terran by birth because your family once originated there or you're Terran because you now live there, all native species from Terra like cats, birds, bacteria, fungi, all are Terrans, and so is Somwhar Ovate R'Einbo, the Somwhar musician that lives on Terra, so is his House cat, so is the Asza'ni Ambassador.

If you look for Humans go to one of the Rim "colonies" that where founded by the first extra solar explorers. They took a lot of "Humanity" with them & are still as destructive as the people they wanted to leave behind. Bitter sweet irony that we got rid of this behavior while they kept it..."

0.001 — New Year Bonus Question (Courtesy of @ HeliaXyana): What kind of drunk is your MC?

Kira: Loving, carrying, cuddling type, she is the one that carries you to your canine/hyper pod/container or if necessary her own bed and makes sure you're sleeping well, warm and secure, however as long your are not in a relationship with her she would present You her back if you sleep in her bed.

Arkham. Quick drunk a bit hot headed but well meaning and eager to explain to you what she likes about you. Depending on the level of alcohol intoxicating she can be a bit sassy and overly sexual explicit and flirty but she still accepts a no, because for her its more like testing how far she is allowed to go and how far she can go without feeling bad herself and well that ends mostly with words or a snuggle rarely a kiss in the cheek if she really likes you.

Ashlei: have you ever seen a drunk space ship/AI?

#PennedPossibilities 0.001 #StarRyde #KiraKnox #Arkham #Ashlei #writing #SciFi #WIP

546. How stable is your SC’s physical health?

The whole crew consists of trained middle-aged to young adult soldiers on a military space ship so they are well trained and have an overall good health. Some minor vitamin D doses have to be supplemented, some old wounds/scars but overall nothing dramatic. That said even a paralyzed soldier can still act on duty thanks to stuff like exoskeletons (exskels) and NIN (Neural Interface Network) uplink. Some prefer regenerative surgeries and treatment with stem cells which are won from menstrual blood cells and are back developed. For some even personal floaters exist that take a vide variety from hovering chairs to backpacks or for "creative" souls with missing body parts stuff like hover legs or arms. Which are a bit complicated to use and mostly serve personal expressions preferences. Usually people just get "cloned" limbs but robotic prosthetics also exists.

547. What inspired you to write your current WIP?

1 & 2 in no particular order.
Star Trek and Mass Effect but with a goal of a broader feminine, queer, lgbtqia+ palette, I didn't liked ST 2009 in the beginning (the Kelvin Timeline only started to come together with its 3. And sadly last movie Beyond), and thought I can' do it better....🙈

2. Edgar Allan Poe's SciFi stories.
3. Strata the closest real SciFi story Terry Pratchett wrote in my opinion

I am a jerky Fanfiction author that barely finished something but I love world building (of world bullying as one of my RPG players lately called my style). I love to creat Le spin off tails of stories I love bit overtime the whole extended universe behind my Star Trek and Mass Effect stories started to bleed into each other and got way more complicated and contradictory to the lore. That's where I realized I need my own universe. Oh and last but not least the
#PennedPossibilities :D 547. #StarRyde #Writing #SciFi #WIP

548 — How did you come up with the title for your WIP?

In an arcane alchemist lab.🤪
Now really I had many ideas Star Ryde stuck the best with me because I want a Star Trek Style story association. Stuff like Star Wars, Stargate make easily clear what they are. Mass Effect, the Orville or the Expanse don't.
One first incarnation of the title was Galaxy RYDE (which I now use, in a way, for my SciFi Parody universe Galaxy Glyde) but it didn't rang well enough to me. The actual explanation is far more complicated and if I put it here only under a "CW lenghty explanation" warning in a thread.😅

Fun fact several future Ideas thanks to the shitty Autocorrect have been spawned next to Star Ryde, that I my use in the future like Star Ryder Aron Shamus is bounty hunter in the Star Ryde universe, Star Rude a ride on a very different captains freighter, Star Tyde the Star Ryde parallel Universe where they work on a big Space Cruiser/Hotel.

549. Did your SC ever feel as though their innocence had been lost? If so, what moment in their life could be described as the end of that innocence?

1/2
I take this to most of my crew since I consider every one of the cast secondary if not main characters.

So we often speak from loosing our innocence, the thing is there is rarely an single event doing this to us. That's something everyone stationed onboard an alliance ship learns early. Loosing your innocence is a corruption over time or an infestation of bacteria, mold on a person. Its gradient always there from the first moment something unpleasant happens to us. That's the first time our brains learn but we not necessarily understand the lesson right, because it's not a lesson reached by someone, we don't have any ramifications to interpret it as neutral.
So we die piece by piece from the idealistic sunshine we where. Some only go so far others get corrupted entirely. It ...
#PennedPossibilities 549 #StarRyde #writing #SciFi #WIP

2/2 is sometimes a simple logic reaction if we take into account that emotions follow a kind of own logic.
Of course we can fight against this corruption, this infestation, creeping mold.

But we need to understand it's reactions first, sarcasm & cynicism are one of this, when the individual suffered enough to feel hate and anger but is still relatively decent towards others.
To prevent sarcasm & cynicism taking deep root the best way ist be truly compassionate towards others.
Care for the ones that surround you.
Onboard a space ship you can not go away far distances so check on your comrades, if they become sarcastic ask them what challenge they face. Get to know them better & especially if they tell you something, listen.
We all go through this the moment we had the 1. encounter of an hostile being. The 1. moment our worldviews are shaken.
The 1. time we defend.
The 1. time we have to act against someone.
The 1. time we kill...

#PennedPossibilities 549 #StarRyde #writing #SciFi #WIP

550.Where does your MC feel most safe?

Kira: in the beginning mostly with Anika on Terra.
Arkham: later in the story, in the Captains Quarters, before that no where really and it only works I'd Kira is there.
Ashlei: in Union Space

They all know the sense of security is not equal to security and indeed security that will protect you will most likely make you feel insecure, because of if the constant dangers you are reminded at... Not to mention if it puts real dangers ahead to "keep other dangers away"

The Ghoz'Tarc itself is only a save bubble as long it isn't under attack... Does it make you more likely a target in a combat scenario? Absolutely...

#PennedPossibilities 550 #StarRyde #Writing #SciFi #WIP #KiraKnox #Arkham #Ashlei #GhozTarcCrew

551. MC POV: If you could have one talent or ability that you don’t naturally have, what would it be?

Kira:"To be able to read persons better, I manage but swex did I had bad decisions .... If it needs to be ridiculous what about regenerative abilities drowning back a limp in an instant or being bulletproof I heard that this old ash "superheroes" of old where bulletproof, not sure what a bullet is but that's one reason more to be proof of it, right?"

Arkham:"Being able to stand any touch without medication... Or smell less than I do... Let me phrase it like this conscious control over my Hypersensible nervsystem."

Ashlei:"A humanoid physical appearance closer to my crew would make some things easier. Only way for me to manipulate things inside my hull is asking nicely or send a maintenance drone but they are tiny and I my ment for repairs."

#PennedPossibilities 551. #StarRyde #KiraKnox #Arkham #Ashlei #writing #SciFi #WIP

552. How strong is your SC’s sense of ambition? What is something that they strive for in life?
1/2
Well the most of them strive for a peaceful life that's why they joint the military. As random & contradictory as it sounds in a universe that is constantly threatened by an Alien Aggressor the motivation to become a Union Soldier is to keep people save. The Alliance is an offshoot of this military, it has become more pro active in engaging Enemies where they encounter them & became an own branch in the century since the first attacks but the goal is the same for the most, keeping the Union a safe space for everyone that doesn't shoot on sight & establish some sort of communication (the Union tried over 150 ways to communicate with the Eltaryn).

Dr. Waberi & Dr. Kaiden joined to help the soldiers and the victims at the front.

Mondira joined to give an example for the other Rim people that it is possible to work with the Union.

#PennedPossibilities 552. #StarRyde #writing #Scifi #WIP

2/2 William Troika joined to keep his family save because he wants to see his daughters grow & thrive. As 2.XO he has some motivation to lead born from the feeling that someone has to lead & that someone should be a level headed person. If not Alliance he would probably have Ende Up in politics.

L.Jenkins: As the second in command after Kira, Jenkins always was a man of Action, he is not so much by the book but by the means. He wants to be the captain one day but his ambition is hold back by his sense of duty. After this Mission who knows.

Chief Engineer Charlston Tuck aka Tucker (a combination from his last Name Tuck and the German Tacker which means stapler) was the leading head behind the Ghoz'Tarcs redesign so he is in to keep his project running and successful.

I will not go into detail for all the last ~30 crew members no worries.😅

#PennedPossibilities 552. #StarRyde #MondiraRamann #DrWaberi #DrKaiden #CharlstonTuck #CharlsTucker #WilliamTroika #LJenkins #writing #Scifi #WIP

553. MC or SC POV: Talk about something made by hand.

Talissa: "Oh we cook regularly on board hand made food just brings people together like nothing else."

Rose: "Does handtyped code counts?"

Arkham: "I redesign my Uniform to my needs myself and work on a special project when I find time for it."

Ashlei:"I don't have hands, nor arms, feet or legs, I can manipulate things via maintainance drones inside or forcefield projection outside."
__________

Arkham held a folded flower in her hand, it was made out of paper, according to Kira it was used centuries ago, to send information between people, they printed information with color on it or wrote with color on it.
Kira said that they cut down whole forests to still the demand of the society. She started using a wooden pencil shortly after Anika went m.i.a.
Arkham wasn't sure how the wooden stick could transfer color to the paper.

554. How do you stay motivated to write?

Guilt because I promised to work on my book otherwise I have no form of motivation I have noticed.
It's more that I want it so I do it which is not very helpful for a consistent schedule to be honest.😅

*side eyes to her current word count this month and last month.*

#PennedPossibilities 554 #writing #AboutMeIGuess

555. Are there any themes for stories that you’re excited to explore in the future?

Can't tell for sure so far.
Maybe I revisit old plans and finally write them.
Have a lot to choose from.
Maybe I push Galaxy Glyde out of my system into words.
Maybe I start StarTyde the parallel universe where everything is Space hotel/luxusliner themed.
Or the Star Ryde Self Insert Romance Alternate Universe
Dive deeper into the StarRyde Universe.
Or as I said go back to old abandoned Projects like the Fox and Raven in which Aliens, Demons and Angels fight over earth.
Nacht des Mares how a soulless Girls learns to run humanity to aquire her soul.
Or I finally finish my Mass Effect Fanfiction that became massive inspiration for Star Ryde.🤷🏽‍♀️

But First I try to finish StarRyde and whatever themes will emerge while writing it on addition to my planned ones.

556. If it ever came down to it, who would your MC be willing to die for?

1/2
Kira had multiple near death encounters already & survived one death, that cursed moment as Anika went m.i.a./died. Her heart stopped shortly after being blasted into the Shuttles armored interior cabinet, with that high energy blast that fried her NIN port & damaged a part of her brain. They managed to revive her on the flight back to the Ghoz'Tarc where her NIN Snail replacement took place.
So Anika is out of the question, since Kira beliefs in the Union & the Alliance, defends their values & citizens. She would die for them on the battlefield if necessary but the goal is to stay alive.

Arkham doesn't like this martyr komplex thinking. She is focused on survival & to do the things she deems necessary.

Ashlei would do anything to keep her crew alive, dying for them, however is not an option, if the ship dies the crew is

#PennedPossibilities 556. #StarRyde #KiraKnox #Arkham #Ashlei #writing #SciFi #WIP

2/2 in danger of being injured or to die too, thua weather her program nor her body (the Ghoz'Tarc) are sacrifices to make. Her program in theory isn't needed if the sub core survives but the sub core efficiency rate is significantly lower than Ashlei's, it is more like a Bios. It has an low level of Artificial Intelligence, but the crew would need to adjust everything by direct order. The sub core just would provide the ability to do so. While Ash balances all the systems with high accuracy.

#PennedPossibilities 556. #StarRyde #KiraKnox #Arkham #Ashlei #writing #SciFi #WIP

557. For the writers who have more than one WIP: How do you balance multiple projects at once?

I don't it's hyper focused or nothing at all, my figuratively spoken drawer, has at least a backdoor to Narnia, or Michael Endes Phantasien, Wonderland, or in the library of the Unseen University of Terry Pratchett's Discworld, where a giant pile of unfinished Projects lies in the dirt until I manage it somehow to finish one...

#PennedPossibilities 557. #StarRyde #writing #SciFi #WIP

558. For the writers who only have one WIP: Have you ever started or considered starting a second project?

See Answer 555

https://nerdculture.de/@AnnaSaultron/113814538969331236

I also have some ideas like Rüdiger rettet a different Form af a Dragon Knight story, Cube world (wip title) etc, the never to be finished Mass Effect Fanfiction. A Star Trek Fanfiction with the same problem and only Gork and Mork knows how many unfinished Character Backgrounds still want to be written...

#PennedPossibilities 558.

559. MC POV: What is a sure-fire way to distract you from the task at hand?

Kira Knox:"Depends on the task at hand. Rescue extraction? The threat changes. Threat elimination? Few things can if I don't get wounded.
Cooking? I try my best to stay focused. Paperwork? Everything else could still it's necessary and needs to be done.
Having a moment with one of my significant others? Work emergency.

As a soldier deployed on deep range mission the safety of the ship and my fellow soldiers, my crew, my friends comes first but if our mission is to safe people I often have to make decisions on the fly and wing it (expression for improvising something with the available information - a wing just does what it's ment for it doesn't think to much on its own and reacts in combination to other parts) as good as possible.

Arkham and Ashlei both have the potential to distract me a bit more. But overall I don't think there is ONE way."

#PennedPossibilities 559 #StarRyde #KiraKnox #writing #SciFi #WIP

560. Your MC has exactly two hours to do something with a small amount of currency in their world. How are they spending the time and money?

Kira: Clearly a cover up/undercover mission so she would just pretend to be a tourist and act similar.

Arkham: Same idea maybe both are talking about little gifts, blink, kitsch for friends back home.

Ashlei aka The Ghoz'Tarc
Wellnesstime! Getting some fuel at the station, restocking the ammunition and a visit by the "Pedicure" getting her thrusters, cleansed, repaired and recoated.
Of course we talk a bigger amount of cash but if your are a slightly under 180 meters long scout vessel you don't buy your outfit and commodities of the rack.😉

#PennedPossibilities 560 #StarRyde #KiraKnox #Arkham #Ashlei #GhozTarc #writing #SciFi #WIP

561. Thoughts on your WIP's genre. Love it? Enough stories written in it? You an avid reader? (Shortened)

Oboe... Military SciFi mixed with lesbian relationship but queer as fork (hopefully), strokes of Dystopia/ Utopia if possible with human depiction like Terry Pratchett & a hint of Eldritch Horror.
It will be great, meh or a complete clusterfork.

I don't read as much as I wish this days but enjoy listening to audiobooks, a lot of small reddit stories get narrated on you tube (I try to only listen to human voices & no AI crap).

I like the subgenre of HumanityFuckYeah for it's different approach to SciFi tropes, I love Cyberpunk for its tales of humanity, Utopian tales for ideals that we should strife for. Military SciFi for the fight we need to keep our societal achievements protected. Dystopian as a warning for what not to strife for. Space Opera for the character driveness.

I want to live in the future but not in the one of 1984.

#PennedPossibilities 561 #StarRyde #WIP

562. Do you have a writing routine?

Not at all but that's a recurring theme in my live and trust me you wouldn't have me routined...

I could make up a mystical writing ritual like taking Alphabet Noodles counting every letter in it and than take the fitting amount of letters for a general German or English text, cook it, drain the water and slap the finished noodles onto a plate calling it a text, but than I would only be a LNSM a large noodle slap machine.

#PennedPossibilities 562 #writing #AboutMeIGuess

563. Silly question: Who would your SC want to take goofy photographs with? If cameras exist in your universe, of course.

Camera or Picta (Picture Taking) is a standard function of each Holo. You tab the "Hologram"* interface for Picta after which you form two L shapes with your hands and frame what ever you want as a picture. Or link it to a visor and say pict. The Holo extrapolates what you can see and takes all data in that area before it generates a 3D Video/Picture/audio file for as long as you have the "frame" up or say depicted.

Mondira has this really annoying tendencies to make photos on every occasion.

She would love to have some more relaxed Fotos with Kira and Arkham that said her hero crush on Kira is bordering into a real crush... which is an topic for a later time but Kira isn't very happy about that or Foto jump scares.

#PennedPossibilities 563 #StarRyde #MondiraRamann #writing #SciFi #WIP

654 What are your SC’s views on marriage? Do they believe it’s something strictly for love, or an institution rooted in business and social benefits?

General opinion in the Union.
It should be for love only but yet there are still enough political, financial motivated, alien princess stories happening in the galaxy.

But also in the union there are no big differences between married and unmarried people and relationships with more than one partner exist at the same general acceptance level.

#PennedPossibilities 654 #StarRyde #writing #SciFi #WIP

565 What would your MC’s go-to song at a party be? Would they be dancing?

Yes they would but most like to in universe music and sorry atm im working on developing my drawing skills I'm not going into digital music creation RN I'm barely writing.🙈😅

But if you need a musical reference
Take a metal song of your choice give it more of an dirty Rock E Guitar, mix in elements from Funkstar Deluxe Bob Marley Covers, Wintergaatan's Marble Machine, Daft Punk and Dax Ryder's, give it a little flavor with Diablo Swing Orchestra and or the Diva Dance from the fifth element.
