They Throw Some Wild Parties on the Red Planet

With a lot of luck, if you hop a few galaxies away from the Milky Way and find an unassuming star like any other, you might happen upon the Trinary System. You’ll know it’s the Trinary System because while its star is unremarkable, there are 3 distinct planets orbiting it, immediately recognizable from their vibrant colors that they’re named after. Furthest from the star is the Purple Planet with its culture of people who have managed to vastly improve their lives by engineering viruses to lengthen lifespans. Their mastery of machinery is also unmatched, having efficiently terraformed their planet into a wonderland of automated machines to take care of every task imaginable. Suffice to say, the Purple folk lead very pampered lives. ...

She turns the tap off, straightens up, takes a deep inhale, lifts the bucket and sighs. “Imagine being a field mouse. Really take the time to imagine it.

His helmet falls to the floor with a heavy “TONK” Rene crawls onto his captain’s chair, looks down at his newly uncovered sky-colored eyes. “J…It’s going to be a long trip…And we both have to put up with the newlyweds.” She gives an annoyed sideways glance towards the bow of the ship where Gai and Mikoto were likely being a married couple.

Gargoyle

Hyrule Castle. Early evening. There is a great commotion in the castle courtyard. Military drills, crowds of nobility, the extended royal family. The promise of a royal ball and banquet later. Roam arrived earlier in the day, unaware that there was any kind of celebration going on. Having been out on a self-scheduled scouting mission for months, he felt that he should return to the castle to record what he found, at least to keep up appearances that he was actually doing something.

It was certainty: the consuming, almost religious focus of someone who refuses to believe that the outcome will be anything other than what he desires.” I just think this quote applies to him really well Birthday + That makes him a Scorpio + "Composed and focused most times but also charming and attractive.
