Galantines

Like here are the two minor characters of the first arc of the Aspects story, so called Anthora arc: Asirfero-Aere (he/they) & Kyoko (they/them)! Anthora is a rich artificial city that collects the big figures from all over the universe. It's a capitalism heaven (although capitalism isn't the world-wide-spread system in the Aspects universe, but it has its centres on some planets) - and so many people who got rich on their home planet are often looking to get to Anthora for new connections. So, these two are kinda part of the whole sceme. Kyoko is one of the main Anthora sponsors, and therefore a very honorable guest for Anzora. They were born into a family that once owned a huge monopoly, which was agreed to be transfered to the order of the Intergalactic Union, but only with special conditions that provided Kyoko's family with a giant amount of generational wealth (absolutely unfavorable deal for the Union, but they really strive at all costs to avoid monopolizing important resources on their territory). So Kyoko decided to invest their assets in an apartment in a beautiful city and organize some buisness and elite parties there… And yes, they do do business sometimes, but they are oh so lazy about it... Eere is an economist, head of one of the major centers of the Intergalactic Freelance Network; this is not exactly a very privileged position, but somewhat authoritative, so it opened many doors for them. They arrived to Anthora in order to make a certain local deal with a business that Kyoko is associated with. But after meeting them, he was so fascinated by them, so he completely lost his cool. To put it simply, Aere has a giant crush on Kyoko. Now he cannot bring himself to put pressure on them and force them to complete the deal— and they are pretty nonchalant about not urgent business. Perhaps the events of the Anthora arc could help Aere in moving forward... In one way or another 👁️
