Astrophel Argentum/Relationships
Overview Relationships Gallery Events
I'm holding him up by the scruff of his neck. PLEASE throw people at him, he needs the social interaction (even if he's grumpy about it).
Jaina Ryder ─ daughter
“...”
A brave scout working in the Outerworld Division. Astrophel was a member of the squadron assigned to contain the law corruption that overtook Jaina’s home, where he found her devastated mourning her recently deceased parents. Despite being bad at it, Astrophel tried his best to offer her a modicum of comfort and a shoulder to cry on. Thankfully she wasn’t badly affected by the corruption and made a full recovery, yet, she surprisingly decided to keep in contact with him.
They quickly grow very close and attached to each other, developing a strong familial relationship. When she told him about her decision to join the Outerworld Division he was terribly against it, citing how she shouldn’t be responsible for carrying the burden of her parents' research. Of course, she didn’t falter when faced with his disapproval so he, begrudgingly, conceded as long as she takes care of herself and doesn’t do anything reckless.
Phel feels very proud of her; despite living through such a terrible event she remains a kind and compassionate person. A strong young woman with a bright future ahead of her, she’s his daughter in every way except in legal documents.
Nine ─ coworker, respects, a bit intimidating, complicated
“...”
A aloof housekeeper who works in the same Division as him. They meet when Astrophel is asked by Freyja to take over a checkup with Nine while she was away. Nine, of course, didn’t show up and Phel had to basically corner the other man in his “office”. Their relationship started… difficult, to say the least. Maybe Nine pointed a knife at him and Phel was ready to kill him by their third meeting. But they were able to mend things with the help of Jaina, who has decided that both of them are her parental figures.
Astrophel feels a strong relatability toward Nine and wishes he could connect more with him but he doesn’t quite know how to reach him. Yet. He thinks Nine is very weird.
Nyx Roseblood ─ capable fighter, surprisingly fun
“...”
A boisterous adventurer working in the Wayfarers’ Division, they meet after Nyx broke her arm in a wrestling match against Selena. Despite her… unique personality and overall rowdiness Astrophel finds her surprisingly endearing and fun to have around. She often comes by the medical wing to get her injuries treated and talk his ear off about her, often embellished, recountings of her latest mission accomplishment. Although she exaggerates it, she is in fact a formidable fighter and Phel greatly respects her strength, if assigned on a mission together he knows she’ll hold her own just fine. He finds himself missing her company and worrying about her safety when she’s gone. Nobody has to know how much she reminds him of the cute fluffy sheep back at home.
Freyja Lest ─ coworker, greatly respects
“...”
A skillful botanical doctor who works in the same Division as him. Due to her seniority and approachable personality, he feels comfortable consulting her when it comes to medicinal herbs. Astrophel greatly respects her passion and dedication to her work, her single minded focus on whatever she’s researching is impressive, but he wishes she would not skip meals and take a few breaks in between. While he will never admit it, he feels a bit of kinship towards her since both are snow leopard kindred.
Senti Ballahast ─ coworker, protective of, curious about
“...”
A shy medical student who works in the same Division as him. While his nervous nature made Astrophel concerned if he was really fit to be a healer, Senti has more than proved himself by sheer determination and hardwork. Phel has found himself being sort of protective over the youngest member of the Division, giving him pointers in whatever areas he can and (secretly) offering to be paired up with him when sent out to the field to give him more experience. While Senti still has a long way to go, Phel can confidently say he’ll make an exceptional doctor in the future. While he will never admit it he finds himself being curious over him since Phel hasn’t had contact with many Sectums in his life.
Odin Finch ─ greatly respects, capable fighter
“...”
A seasoned squadron captain working in the Outerworld Division and co-founder of the Valhalla Project. Astrophel had heard a lot about the renowned and fearsome captain and her great feats on the field but he was particularly surprised when they worked together for the first time, her carefree and friendly personality weren’t what he was expecting at all. By watching how she is towards others he quickly grows to greatly respect her and he finds that her reputation does precede her, she truly is a competent fighter and leader, he trusts her judgement and knows she’ll have his back. Once he learns about her background he develops a quiet kinship towards her - she understands what is like to live off of scraps, to not have a roof over your head and the constant uncertainty of it all. The moment he hears about her efforts in the Valhalla Project his respect towards her skyrockets and he quickly offers to help wherever he can.
Korin Altair ─ dependable, friendly
“...”
A reserved co-founder of the Valhalla Project. They only meet after Astrophel has been contributing in the orphanage for a while and he had no idea what to make of him at first, his serious demeanor and overall quietness made it seem like he had no interest in idle chit chat so Phel just let him be. He does come to realize how caring he is towards the orphans and his deep dedication to the project. While they don’t cross paths super often, they have developed a slight camaraderie and can be found riling each other up with sarcastic quips over a good meal and drink when they happen to meet. Phel feels a sense of quiet kinship towards him just like he does to Odin. However… in rare moments he feels a small sense of unease around him, and he cannot put his finger on why…
Ruairi Cromwell ─ capable fighter, friendly
“...”
A skilled adventurer working in the Wayfarers’ Division, their paths crossed after Ruairi got scrapped during the fight with Loco Motion. His fighting prowess and calm demeanor make him a good companion when they happen to work on missions together, and his charismatic personality has slowly chipped away at Phel’s icy exterior. He knows he can count on him on the field. Maybe they have more in common than Astrophel thinks…
Hanzekihel Oulieus ─ concerned about, sees potential
“...”
A placid researcher working in the Arcane Sciences Division. They’ve come to meet due to Hanzekihels’ poor health and Faltered condition often landing him on the medical wing. His uninterested approach made him seem rather cold at first but Astrophel finds that they are both just people who don’t feel the need to constantly fill the silence with chatter. Slowly, they bonded over quiet companionship, interest in constellations and complete opposite tastes in food. While Hanze is an intelligent man this intelligence seems to vanish when it comes to taking care of himself, often skipping meals and pulling all nighters, which lead to Phel taking it onto himself to try to get him to eat proper meals and go to bed at reasonable times if he hears about it. If you see Astrophel carrying him over his shoulder please don’t worry about it, trust me it’s for his own good. Doctors orders.
Monica Holst ─ concerned about, protective of, capable fighter
“...”
An energetic scout working in the Outerworld Division. Astrophel was assigned to go into the same Bubble as Monica when her squadron was attacked, he was on the next squadron supposed to take the shift after hers. When her squadron was late for the shift change they were all concerned, when she stumbled out of the bubble - alone, completely alone - Phel was one of the first people to get to her. This event took a terrible toll on her, he was convinced she wasn’t gonna make it at some points and yet she made it - not without sequels. He finds himself paying them visits and checking up on them when he can, he develops a protective feeling towards them - and maybe, just maybe, he feels a little guilty he couldn’t come to their aid sooner. Since they share an interest in plushies, Phel keeps an eye out for any cute ones to give to her when they meet.
Lyna Solai ─ friendly, dependable, curious about
“...”
An upbeat environmental surveyor working in the Arcane Sciences Division. They’ve come to meet because of their mutual relationship with Freyja, while he expected them to stay as just acquaintances Lynas’ general charismatic personality slowly wormed her way into a more friendly connection. Astrophel finds her genuine curiosity and eagerness to understand everything around her refreshing. Lynas’ draconic origins shocked him, not only because duh, she’s a dragon, but also because she looks so adorable when in her dragon form. He will never utter a word about it, but she reminds him a lot of his beloved plushies.
Bunny Burrows ─ friendly
“...”
A kind and charismatic patisserie owner of the Sugarbun's Pâtisserie. While Astrophel had heard about the Sugarbun's Pâtisserie before - hard not to when people come out of the establishment singing it praises like they just got severe actual sugary ambrosia - he never really felt the need to check the place out since sweets aren’t his thing. That is until the Phoenix Festival. He kept hearing about this "cinnabomb challenge" and decided to take a moment to check if this treat is as spicy as they say. Her treats do in fact live up to all the praise and Phel got surprised by how friendly yet unobtrusive Bunny is. He tries to pass by Sugarbun’s once in a while for a good cup of coffee and some friendly chatter if Bunny is up for it.
Fovelly ─ protective of, concerned about, curious about
“...”
An outgoing orphan from the Valhalla Project. They meet when Astrophel starts contributing at the orphanage and Fovelly decides that he’s the perfect living jungle gym to play with. Due to her general clumsy and airheaded nature she often stumbles around and gets scrapes and bruises, Phel is terribly concerned she’s going to hurt herself badly someday so he will quietly hover around her and catch her with his tail when possible. He found himself growing attached to this little spider and now looks forward to whenever she asks him to play with her. Phel finds himself being slightly curious over her since he hasn’t had contact with many Sectums in his life.
Pollux and Castor ─ protective of, concerned about
“...”
Two mischievous twin orphans from the Valhalla Project. They meet when Astrophel starts contributing at the orphanage and he finds himself being prime victim to their shenanigans since he always has shiny silver accessories on himself. While they are a handful, and dragons above do they love trouble, he found himself getting attached to the kids. He doesn’t mind their antics as much and has occasionally been tasked with rounding up the fledglings after they run off to find more unsuspecting victims. He just wishes they would stop pouncing on his tail unannounced…
Manako Mitsu ─ coworker, sees potential
“...”
A small and quiet apothecary who works in the same Division as him. Despite her meek personality, he can see her passion for her field on the few times she lost herself while speaking about her interests and how her posture changes when working. Is particularly interested in learning about what kind of alcohol she ferments after hearing about it offhandedly, now if only he could muster the courage to ask…
Bellona Salvia ─ capable fighter, pushes his buttons
“...”
A fiery adventurer working in the Wayfarers’ Division. At first glance Astrophel was convinced she would just be your typical privileged rich kid type, a fancy looking woman from a noble house that talks the talk but runs with her tail between her legs when things get tough. Well… her sharp tongue and crude approach made him quickly realize how she’s very much not like that. Bellona has a particularly keen ability to push his buttons and comments about his bedside manners bring out his old quick temper back to the surface, but she is a experienced fighter and highly dependable on the field so really he can’t complain much. But, dragons above, does she get on his nerves sometimes.
Ari Lancaster ─ privileged prick
“...”
A silver-tongued treasurer working in the Trade Division. Two-faced, driven by selfishness and coming from a privileged upbringing, Ari is everything Astrophel despises in a person. He could see through his charismatic and good looking persona from the get-go and quickly decided he’s not someone he wishes to have around himself, despite Ari’s best attempts. They still cross paths from time to time and, while Phel tries to keep a modicum of professionality, Ari seems to know exactly how to push his buttons in the worst ways possible with the least amount of words, there might have been times people had to pry the off of each other before they escalated into physical fights. Despite his obvious dislike, Ari seems to randomly seek him out. What for? Who knows. If Phel had to guess, just to piss him off.
