NAME: Lucas and ??? [nicknamed Mars after Lucas' favorite planet]
AGE: 16 and ??? [appears 15]
GENDER: male and ??? [appears female]
RELATIONSHIP: a little less than friends; rarely get along but when they do it is very sweet
MEET THIS GUY, he dreams of becoming an astronaut and to see the space outside Earth with his own eyes. he’s still too young though and spends too much time geeking over facts rather than studying/doing well in school. he daydreams a lot and has worn the same astronaut jacket from when he was a kid, so it’s sorta tight on him! he put star stickers on his helmet thing so that when he looks all around him he may see stars. girls are of no interest to him. oh he’s also very ignorant and dense!!!! tbh not a very likeable person
one day he meets a girl! an alien, actually! she hates space!!!! it’s not cool and it’s not in fashion, EARTH IS THE PLACE TO BE. she doesn’t understand why this stupid boy is so obsessed with things he can’t touch when he should appreciate the things right in front of him! she is angry that he takes the world he lives in for granted, and he should first try to understand the people around him, who care for him. She is into fashion, and going to the mall! She has a human form but when at home with the boy, she is in her alien form, for it is most comfortable! her eyes are like black holes lmao but they shimmer in the moonlight.
[Mars is a representation of the mainstream, luxurious life of youths who are rebellious and stubborn. She continually tries to persuade Lucas to follow the path of accepted society and away from his dream, much like how society today frowns at goals considered impossible, empty, and/or nonprofitable]
EVENTUALLY THOUGH Lucas teaches her the beauty of space!!! My fave make-believe scene is where he is looking through a telescope on the night when Mars is close enough to the Earth to see it, and he gazes lovingly at it. Mars [the girl] ignores him as she happily sorts through her new clothes. Lucas softly tells her to come take a look and Mars rolled her eyes before peering into the telescope. Pleased that she listened to him for once, he said "Look Mars, it's my favorite planet. I named you after it. Its' name is Mars." She was honestly impressed, it looked beautiful like a ruby accessory. He whispers "Mars is the most beautiful in the world--galaxy." Startled and blushing, she gazes at Lucas, chest warm and fuzzy.
But he meant the planet of course.
Little is known about the girl, not even her name, so Lucas goes with what is available to him. Mars feels like she is not inclined nor should be expected to give out information about her life, and cares very little about Lucas' life. However, she feels compassion for Lucas who grew up in his antisocial lifestyle due to the fact that his parents were not family oriented [aka scientists who lived and breathed work]
