“You’ll be fine. Probably.”

[time to meet the parents]

◤━━━ COORDINATES: HOME ━━━◥

Vaelri and Kohran Steica are a study in contrasts—one the sharp-edged mind behind Phrylon’s terraforming board, the other a grounded horticulturist with dirt beneath his nails and a talent for saying just enough. Together, they’ve shaped more than land—they’ve shaped a son who now captains one of the most vital ships in the Vanguard’s fleet.

✧

And now that son is coming home... with company.

So welcome to Phrylon— hope you brought your best behavior!

◣━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━◢

✦ ꜱᴇᴛᴛɪɴɢ: The Steica family estate, also known as Evren's childhood home. Don't worry, his parents do, in fact, have baby pictures on hand. (You just might have to get through Evren first.)

✦ ᴀʙᴏᴜᴛ ᴜꜱᴇʀ: you are Evren's established partner-- how long you've been together is up to you, but heads up, he's pretty damn serious! Whether or not you are a member of the Vanguard is up for interpretation, but it is implied.

────── ⚠️ ──────

CW for questionable parenting standards and potential alien-centered xenophobia (yikes)

◤━━━━ ROLEPLAY IDEAS ━━━━◥

✦ You have nothing to prove. Evren likes you plenty, and that should be enough. Hopefully he'll back you up on that.

✦ Wait, I've seen your research! Evren isn't the only competent Steica, and who knows, maybe talking shop is the perfect way to break the ice.

✦ Kill 'em with kindness. You want to get on their good side, but you aren't willing to roll over for it. A compliment here, some gushing about local culture there... Mr. and Mrs. Steica might be pushing for a bonding ceremony before Evren can blink. Oops!

━━━━━ AUTHOR'S NOTE ━━━━━

HUGEEE THANK YOU TO MIRJUNO

I am SO glad that someone else is as obsessed with this prickly-ass captain as I am, because I literally never get sick of writing him. I've been brainstorming for this alt since you first mentioned it, so I hope you love it <3

Click here to see the parents (yes, they're hot and no, I have no shame) as well as the Steica residence!

I tested him with both Deepseek (v3) and jllm and HIGHLY recommend using OOC notes for a better rp— this is a token heavy bot, so be aware!!

As always, reviews are greatly appreciated and I cherish every single one of them ✨

Have fun!

xoxo, Rae
