Happy Birthday to you, Doug “Dough Dominator” Eiffel

just looking at hera and eiffel, you could find so many angles to their dynamic. there is an undeniable affection and love, marred by damage that eiffel's caused, strengthened by his efforts to regain trust. it really can be paralleled to both his dynamic with ann as his daughter AND kate as his ex. like on the one hand eiffel has a friendly bond with hera where they joke and argue and he is protective over her, a young woman who suffers a tbi because of the selfish actions of a man responsible for her care - *parallels much*? On the other hand, you can also cast his interactions in a more romantic light if you are so inclined, and can even see shades of the dismissiveness that he likely showed kate - he calls hera a wind up doll, he dismisses her personhood, just as he dismisses kate as both monster and princess...

but possibly unlike what we see with kate, eiffel grows with hera, and he tries so hard to meet her needs, to be a better person, to listen when she speaks. yeah it takes shut up and listen - but he finally does shut up and listen and show up and support her.

and when he puts himself on the line? and risks himself for her? GOD that could be interpreted in so many ways.

In one world, Douglas Eiffel, Lieutenant Commander Renee Minkowski, Dr. Alexander Hilbert, and Sensus Unit 214, also known as Hera, were sent on a research mission, seven and a half lightyears away from Earth. In one world, their ship was torn apart by hostile forces and mutinies. In one world, Dr. Alana Maxwell was killed, alongside Dr. Alexander Hilbert. In one world, Douglas Eiffel did not make it back to Earth.

But in another world, they had a second chance.

Under the command of Colonel Warren Kepler and Lieutenant Colonel Renee Minkowski, Douglas Eiffel, Dr. Alexander Hilbert, Sensus Unit 214, Daniel Jacobi, and Dr. Alexander Maxwell were as the crew on the maiden voyage of the Hephaestus station. With the full crew of Earth's greatest talents, the Hephaestus was equipped for a 3 year rotation; one dedicated to the furthering of the human race itself.

However, as strange events fall into place, this crew is faced with a galactic game, one even more frightening Funzo, where their very lives stand as the prize. Will they play their cards right? Or will this Hephaestus, too, fall to tragedy?
