relationships with her siblings
┌━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┐
Adonis ;; While Cassie loves all of her siblings, Adonis
can really get on her nerves sometimes. It's not big
things or anything like that, just some small things.
How he's lazy, how he doesn't seem to care about things,
etc. despite not liking these aspects of his personality,
she does recognize that her brother is pretty talented.
(she just doesn't get why he doesn't put this much effort
into everything else) his paintings, for example, and
how he wants to be a mechanic. Cassandra knows she
couldn't do either of those things-so, she's rather proud
of him for being able to paint like a master and be
able to understand what things are needed to be a
mechanic. his laziness does sometimes benefit her,
though. When she feels like just going somewhere
rather than her dorm to chill, she'll go to him and
sit with him and watch something in silence with
Adonis.
Astraea ;; Cassandra really admires her sister. Astraea's
determination especially. She isn't sure how her sister
manages with all of her advanced classes, she can
barely keep up in the normal classes she has. Cassie is
also really excited to see what the future has in store
for her sibling; she wants to see her excel at everything
and become a great commander. Although Astraea has
advanced classes, Cassie often visits her throughout
the day to check up on her and see how everything is
going. She use to be in classes with Astraea until she
opted to go to the advanced classes, and while Cassie
wouldn't tell anybody this-she really misses her sister.
Like... quite a lot. She just feels like she could tell
everything to her for some reason. Cassie is happy for
her sister and everything, but sometimes... sometimes
she wishes she would've stayed. Besides the depressing
stuff, Cassie also really admires her punk fashion. She
thinks it really suits Astraea, and would like to follow
suit, but she thinks she would look ridiculous. So she
just looks at her and admires her style from afar, not
daring to get anything that looked similar.
Midas ;; Cassie admires Midas quite a bit. Not only are
they quiet, respectful, and calm, but they're also good
at just about everything. Cassandra, on the other hand...
not so much. Often, when Cassie feels like she's just
going to blow up on some person or teacher that made
her feel inadequate or what have you, she'll go straight
to Midas to hear their calming words. And it works. The
fire of rage inside of her will die down, and she'll sit
there and talk to Midas about what made her mad so
she can vent, and if she gets to loud or frustrated,
Midas will tell her to calm down... and she will. Usually,
when people utter the words "calm down" to her, it
almost sounds sarcastic and snarky and manages to
make her even more mad. Midas says it in such a gentle
tone that Cassandra knows they're not trying to prod
at her. When she struggles with her classes, such as
trigonometry (god, does she hate trig), she'll go to
Midas for help with it. But Cassie doesn't go to her
sibling just for help, she often likes to speak with
Midas and hear about their day and hang out.

relationships with her parents
┌━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┐
Eros ;; When Cassie was younger, she quite enjoyed
the company of her father. He would play with her and
her siblings almost all of the time, and she absolutely
adored him. Now that she's older... who am I kidding,
she still loves her dad! On the days she comes home
from the academy, when she arrives back at her dorm,
she'll find some treats in her bag along with little notes
of encouragement and how he's proud of her and her
siblings. Usually, this makes her homesick and she'll
cry in bed for about 20 minutes while eating what he
gave her. While she's home, she'll often ask him about
his paintings, how much they're going for, etc. She
loves to sit down and watch him paint, although she
knows that her watching him might make him nervous.
But, he never says anything to her, so she continues.
Cassie loves hearing him talk, seeing how laid back he
is, and usually sits in silence most of the time to hear
him talk.
Psyche ;; Cassie, when she was a wee girl, use to love
hearing the stories Psyche would tell her about the
stars and the traveling he did with her other two
parents. The bed time stories wouldn't even make her
go to sleep, either, since she was too excited to hear
about said stories. She also liked to watch him play
pinball and would stand there for hours with him, only
leaving to grab a juice pouch or to use the bathroom.
Cassie once stood there in silence with him, the only
sound being from the pinball machine, for five hours.
And afterwards, both of them were so exhausted they
took a nap together... and when they woke up? Right
back at the pinball machine. Now that she's older, she
hasn't seen him play pinball in awhile and often gets
the urge to ask him if she could see him play one more
time, for old time sake, but doesn't want to bother him.
While she use to be close with Psyche when she was
younger, the only thing they really talk about together
is her ambition to become a navigator. He usually talks
to her about what it means to be a navigator, some
tips and tricks, etc. Cassandra often misses the
relationship they once had, but doesn't know what to
do to fix it.
Iris ;; Cassie use to love when she would come into
the living room some mornings to see Iris building them
lego sets. While Iris looked quite annoyed with the
situation, Eros would be standing with her and the rest
of her siblings, anxiously waiting for the lego sets to be
built. When Cassandra was 15, Iris was the one she
came out to first. She knew all of her parents wouldn't
care, seeing as how she has two fathers, but she was
still nervous as heck to tell anybody. She knew her
mother was understanding, and when she told her, Iris
just laughed and said that she knew. Then, Cassie
also laughed and felt stupid for thinking that Iris would
really mind that she was a lesbian. When she would go
to ask one of her dads something (like to do something
dangerous, seeing as how she knew Psyche would be
up for it) Iris would almost always be right behind her
and telling her that no, she couldn't climb to the
highest tree and see how far she could jump. Bummer.
Now that Cassandra is in the academy, she sees her
mother almost everyday and is actually quite glad for
that. As I said before, Cassie often gets home sick and
loves to go into her mother's class after it empties,
run up to her and hug her and tell her that she loves
her.

more about her
┌━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┐
likes ;;
long car rides, when all of her siblings are getting along,
quality time with her family, training, science class, star
gazing, sleeping, watching space documentaries, space in
general.
dislikes ;;
trigonometry class, her English teacher, people being mean
to her siblings, that one girl in Midas's science class, teacher's
pets.
personality ;;
Cassie is sort of rude when you first meet her, generally because
she doesn't want someone to get to know everything about her
and then use that to stab her in the back. If you show kindness
to her, she'll try to match it but it will most likely have hints
of sarcasm laced in it. To her siblings and true friends, she's
a very kind person to them and shows them all the love they
truly deserve. She's quite stubborn as well, especially when
she knows she's right. While she can take when she's wrong
pretty well, most of the time she's actually right and it makes
her mad when people say she's wrong. Or if she wants to do
something and she knows it's the best, she'll argue with you
all day if you try to do something else. Honestly, she does know
best though. She's also quite mature already, knowing the
academy doesn't need any goofballs messing up everything.
Although she's mature, she does have times where she
goes all out silly, usually on the weekends with friends and
her siblings. While she had leader tendencies, she feels
she would never be a great leader. Especially when her
temper takes over, she feels like she would actually hit
someone if she was leader and they didn't do as they were
told. That's how bad her temper can get sometimes, more so
when she's stressed than anything. Cassie also has a very good
memory, photographic memory if you will. That's why she
thinks she will be an excellent navigator. (spoiler alert: she's
a really good navigator)
