meet Bee! she's a former science experiment turned space engineer, a shapeshifter who was designed to absorb and become other beings in order to harness their unique powers. her forms range from relatively mundane earth animals like big cats to a xenomorph queen.

her and Morgan met during a tumultuous time in both of their lives; Morgan had fled to the moon to escape their past, and Bee fled to escape her 'father' and creator. she was fairly clueless about life, and Morgan tried to mentor her, putting aside their self destructive tendencies to try and be there for her; and in return, when Morgan had a sudden deterioration in their health, Bee took care of them and helped them recover. then, when Bee's 'father' came looking for his 'asset', Morgan was able to use their evil scientist credentials to negotiate with him, resulting in eventually granting Bee her freedom. (it wouldn't be the last run-in with her father, but still.)

the two of them have absolutely changed each other for the better; Morgan fully credits her for the reason they now want to live. they live together in a custom luxury spaceship called the Stardrifter alongside a pair of pet slimes and alternate between helping out at Wayfinder Station, a Trek-based space station focused on time travel, and simply exploring the galaxy together. Morgan just proposed this past week and she said yes!

like, Mika is probably the most moral of the main cast members. she's the one most visibly horrified at the understanding of what went on with the Volunteers, since she didn't have any knowledge of the Typhon ahead of time, and she has strong opinions on all of it. she even has a noble reason for being there, to look for her father. she's also a real spitfire who's constantly making snide comments and who very much yells at Morgan for their horrific actions even when they're seeking to help her. she's Good, but not Nice.
