Some facts about Astar:
Astar Magdalene (probably not his real name) / Age: 26 (maybe) / Currently residing in Mandela
Was born during a period where alternates had become common knowledge; exhibited "strange" behaviors as a child which resulted in his parents abandoning him for fear of him being an alternate
Put in the foster care system where he was passed from family to family; treated poorly in most & was abandoned several more times for the same reasons
Eventually managed to figure something out for work & bought a cheap home in Mandela; lived there for a year, battling a worsening mental state & periodically attempting suicide
One attempt, where he tried to drown himself when he was 25, was successful, and he was clinically dead for a while. While dying, he had a vision of Gabriel, who told him his life had been meaningless & that he was "finally waking up." Paramedics managed to revive him after a passerby called them
After that he became fascinated by alternates; he wants to know everything they know & more, about their biology, and what M.A.D. is. If his life didn't mean anything, then he has nothing to lose anyway
Spends most of his time working online (he runs a site selling handcrafted items mostly but does other things too), but often goes out at night to watch people & see if he can distinguish any alternates, or actively chasing alternate reports
After his near death he's gained the ability to sense the presence of alternates; he gets a strange rush which usually makes him excited
Most definitely neurodivergent (the "strange behaviors" as a kid was totally just early signs of it)
Is most comfortable around people his age or younger; has a deep distrust of any older adults and especially older men
Abnormally strong for his size & agile; doesn't resort to violence often but if pushed, can get extremely brutal

Falling in love doesn’t always come with violins and kissing in the rain. Sometimes it looks like, “Why do I know their coffee order, favorite pen, and dog’s birthday?”
They remember everything. Not because they’re trying to flirt. Just because their brain decided, “This person’s data is important now.”
They get annoyed by other people talking to them. Why are you laughing at their joke? He’s not even funny.
They show up. For dumb things. Things they wouldn’t normally care about. Your cat’s vet appointment? They’re there.
Their body reacts before they do. Smiling before their brain catches up. Leaning closer without realizing. Looking at their mouth while they talk. Oops.
They pretend they’re just "helping out." You know. Just being a good friend. A good friend who stares at your texts like they’re holy scripture.
They get flustered when the other person flirts with anyone else. “I’m not jealous. I just… think they deserve better. Like someone emotionally mature. Who knows their coffee order. Who… wears this hoodie. Okay bye.”
They panic when the other person gets too close. Not because they’re scared of them. Because they’re scared of how much they care.
So I finally caved in...

me and the homies got a bit silly and made this abomination
its terrifying LMFAO
@bagel1234 @disturbedpodzol @friedfrogs
a prompt list by @novelbear ᵔᴥᵔ
lingering hugs and stares
"you know i'm always going to be there for you, right? always."
compliments that are borderline (sometimes just blatant) flirting but they cover it up as just being a really supportive friend
^ "you sure this looks fine?" "trust me, you look fine as hell..."
being overly protective of the other (especially when it comes to relationships)
showing displays of affection that might seem questionable to others around them (ex. kissing each other on the cheek/ hands)
hand placement when hugging or guiding them also being a little more on the questionable side
"i'm always thinking about you."
being unable to tear their eyes off of them, especially when watching them excel at something they're best at
sharing clothes
"why are you looking at me like that?"
unconsciously including them in conversation when they're not even around
"there's no one else that makes me laugh the way you do."
noticing them blushing coincidentally after making a comment. but they can't be blushing because of what they said. they wouldn't. would they? no, of course not...right?
holding hands and neither of them knowing when (or wanting to) let go
when that realization hits that they really wouldn't rather spend their time with anyone else the way they do with their "best friend"
rambling on and on and on and wait are they looking at my eyes or my lips?
"if we were dating i'd take you to all the best places.." "what's stopping you?" "excuse me."
"can i kiss you?" "you have no idea how long i've waited to hear you ask that."
the relief that washes over both of them when the feelings are finally out there
"why didn't you tell me?" "the same reason you didn't tell me. i didn't want to lose you."
to the people who chose the knife option, I love you
