❝ in the beginning . . . nothing. a vast ocean of emptiness, lifeless. and then there was a blinding brightness. life, like a vine, spread itself ; expanding into the universe we know and live in today. the building blocks of life's future ; ours and many more. still, even with the bountiful advancements mankind has made to understand the stars ... there is still much that many have yet to learn about the expanse of our surrounding universe.and why should ; or rather . . . would, they stop ?it was ██/██/████, another run-of-the-mill mission into the stars. data analysis and sample recovery ... that was their only goal.they never completed this mission.completely blindsided by the unknowns and chaotic nature of space ... by the times alarms and lights were blaring, it'd been too late. one moment, the team's communications with earth were clear as could be, and then ? silence. what ground control and the group had failed to identify was a powerful black hole.

almost immediately, the team's spacecraft would "vanish," no longer apart of our universe. at least, that was the case for most. the result of such a mishap still baffles most who were working there at the time.when that ship had disappeared, so too did the black hole. minutes of silence turned to hours, into days, months, and eventually years. seven, to be exact. as the years crept on, those who worked on that mission and remained began to forget. that was until a new gravitational anomaly would appear. what had everyone up with questions ? why was it the perfect size and shape of a human ?
        
most of the questioning would have to be put off for now, the anomaly had broken into earth's atmosphere. thankfully, whatever had changed with this astronaut had been contained within the suit ; concentrating mostly in the helmet.
       
despite every possible test and experiment being done, not a soul could identify what had changed within, or around, the astronaut. what was very clear, they'd somehow managed to merge with one of the scariest celestial bodies out there.

▍ ❝   I.
    
the start of it all. the event horizon. born to a happy, well-off family in austin, texas. from the very get-go, cassian was a baby of the stars.like every other adventurous child, they had dreamed of one day being among the stars. unlike every other kid ... they turned a dream into reality. _at twenty eight, they'd start working for ████████.

▍ ❝   II.
     
a few moves later, packing and unpacking their life over and over, cass finally settled down and tossed those boxes out, swearing this was the last one.settled in to their new apartment, the focus fell to bigger topics ; less interior decorator and more soon-to-be astronaut.

▍ ❝   III.
    
maybe that dream should have stayed a dream.
in the midst of a routine data analytic report, hell erupted in the helm. visors reflect the red hue of alerts, ears ringing from the trill of sirens.all cass could do was watch, stuck in the stars via tether. the culprit, a emerging black hole, swallowed up the ship ; in turn the crew, including cass.

▍ ❝   IV.
          
whether it be fate, or a long-hidden curse, cass would survive. unfortunately for the rest of the crew and equipment, they were gone .. no longer apart of this universe. their survival was still in the balance though, stuck floating unconscious several light-years away from rescue.despite the situation, cass' body seemed to move like its own conscious being. slowly but surely, a celestial blessing would leave cass in the andromeda system.

▍ ❝   V.
     
unfortunately, due to this time spend in space being mostly unconscious and disoriented, cass remembers little of their time floating among stars, and even worse . . . how they got home. readjusting to the simple human life, now that their head was quite literally a star collapsing on itself, was not an easy challenge.very often do they hear the many comments people have for them. they can't entirely blame others either . . . who wouldn't be put off at a walking, talking black hole ?

▍ ❝   VI.
    
life continued on, more complicated than ever for cass. to ease the discomfort of their differences and assist humanity with their goals, vortex was given accommodations ; a new suit, their own spacecraft, and of course — a lab aboard the ISS.
    
hopefully it'll help them discover their own self..
