aster lore dump #1
Feb. 24th, 2024 04:48 am- been thinking abt the asteraven situationship that leads up to them actually dating:
- after first taking on the identity of 'aster' and committing to finding meaning of existence in the real aster's memory (who WAS part of the doctors of chaos trying to find optimism and happiness in the meaning of existence)
- she starts taking on various side jobs to travel and learn about other people's reason for living. despite having a general nihilistic world view and difficulties connecting with others. she's determined find these answering to honor her dead friend
- i absolutely want aster & aventurine's to be at some random casino. where aster knows Exactly who he is and who he works for. Hoping to gain some sort insight (and possibly getting some sort of in with the IPC), she decides to play a few games in hopes of gaining his attention. but she has absolutely NO idea how to play most games in just kinda rolls with it and ends up learning a bit of WHY people like gambling so much
- aventurine absolutely knows she's trying to extort him and plays into it. wanting to know if SHE could offer anything to HIM. and oh the sexual tension starts so early. but aventurine does end up loose to her.
- privately, to two end up making a loose deal with aster providing back alley/black market time info that aventurine himself cannot physically investigate given his status. in return, aster gets access to IPC intel that is mostly unknown to the general public
- they have their deal, but do end up on opposite sides of various conflicts and it becomes a game of who can come out on top and eventually the sexual tension finally cracks and they fuck
