Stellar Firma (Station)

Stellar Firma Ltd is based on a space station with many decks and floors, as well as "basement levels" and portholes that show outside into space. Inhabitants get around mainly via tubes, which have hatches on the floor of rooms. Otherwise, the station is incredibly hard to navigate and there are no existing maps of the station.

Due to the overburdening of I.M.O.G.E.N. and eventual RAM shortage, much of the station that clients do not see is in heavy disrepair, including power outages, leaks, dead plants, puddles of water and battery acid, and exposed heaters.Many locations on the station are defunct and empty.

## Synopsis

Trexel and David 7 have been travelling through the vents for 23 and a half hours trying to find where the complaints go.

They find Enola in the vents, who has been creating leaflets.
Formorian Realt

Formorian is an Employee-Citizen of Stellar Firma Ltd. He wants to trick someone he's interested in romantically into signing the forms to become legally in a relationship with him, but he seems to not notice Formorian, who cannot sing nor dance, as well as being allergic to chocolates and flowers, which all happen to be detrimental to wooing him, as he is apparently very taken with his clone who sings and dances for him. Formorian says that to counter this, he is both tall and very punctual.

## Trivia

* It has been speculated that fraternization with clones in this manner is atypical, so the person Formorian is interested in may be Trexel himself.
Number 48

Number 48 is a member of Standards, and is married to Number 1.

## Personality

Number 48 is shown to be the pettier of the couple. They feel a need to over-explain themselves, as opposed to Number 1, who under-explains nearly everything, causing a lot of tension in their relationship.

Number 48 seems less invested in tampering with David 7's life, and don't want it to interrupt their life or their time away from work. Number 48 seems to feel a bit frustrated in Number 1's fixation on their work, and on David, and claims they have "communication issues." They are prone to storming out or going quiet when Number 1 pushes them to the side or snaps at them, and they seem to have a violent streak, taking delight in the idea of beating Hartro to death with their special murder hammer.

The two of them are currently seeing a couples therapist, Dr. Krell.

## Trivia

* Number 48's voice actress, Rachel, is Ben's (voice of David 7) wife!
* Number 48's name may come from their ID number, as Number 1's ID is 1.

The room where Trexel and David designed planets for customers. It has one known door, through which Trexel enters and leaves. It has a tube that dispenses the brief, and a tube that the brief is placed into.

Trexel Is The Best

*Trexel is The Best* is the second track in the Stellar Firma album, *Cabaret Night at The Cosmic Lounge*, and is sung by Trexel Geistman.

## Lyrics

[Speaking]

"This one's going out to anyone who’s ever woken up after a three-day binge full of doubt… shame…

Yes…"

[Verse 1]

When you're feeling kinda down and low

Don't know what to do or where to go

Physical and emotional pain

Paranoia and self-hatred reign

Get your stinking body off the floor

Drag that worthless carcass to the door

Look in to the empty hall

Hard to see the point at all

(No) NO! That’s no way to think

That a Geistman could ever be defeated by drink

The line that you represent and

Your many great achievements

[Pre-chorus]

This genius is once in an eon

Don’t let yourself get gainsaid by peons

Superior to all the rest, don't forget

Mmmm, Trexel is the best!

[Chorus]

Trexel is the best. Ooh, it's unequivocal

Trexel is the best. What's that? Say it again

Trexel is the best. Don’t argue with me!

Trexel is the best (he’s the best)

[Verse 2]

My methods? Always non-traditional

Love for myself? Always unconditional

Haters try to blame me for what's happening

Just because their world’s collapsing

Deep down, I know their insults are lies

I can see it in the mirror when I look in my eyes

[Pre-chorus]

If you doubt it, put it to the test, and don't forget

Trexel is the best (ooh!)

[Chorus]

Trexel is the best. It's non, non, non-negotiable

Trexel is the best. Say it again, say it again

Trexel is the best. What did we discuss about arguing?

Trexel is the best  (he’s the best)

Ah keep it rolling (Trexel is the best)

That’s it, that's nice to hear

You know it's good to have someone like you around

(Trexel is the best)

Y’know, someone who gets me,

who understands me, not like David, always arguing

(Trexel is the best)

"Oh! Oh that's not right, Trexel", "That doesn't work"

Hasn’t he heard? I'm the best!

(Trexel is the best)

I mean I’m literally the best!

(He’s the best)

Damn straight.

[Speaking]

"So, anyone going anywhere nice after here? Not—not that we couldn't stay here, not  because I’m—not because I’m banned. Not like—not like—oh,er, not—not like Trexel is banned, because I’m not Trexel. Becau—I— ‘cause I’m not— ‘cause Trexel's banned and I’m not— Despite what the song sa—*I* *am allowed to be he*— that's—I—we’ve—we g— Um, *D—DAVID!"*
Berthenoldimothy Von Wittlesteinium VII

Berthinoldimothy Von Wittlesteinium is the club historian of The Intergalactic It's-Probably-Not-A-Good-Idea-To-Touch-That Club, who requested a lava planet you could swim on. Trexel describes members of the club as "danger-seekers" and "threat loons" which speaks to the personality of Berinoldimothy. They died while trying to swim in lava on 512903-Ợ, like a Minecraft character.

Ethel Unction Yeems

Ethel Unction Yeems wanted a planet for the ongoing education and social erudition of young sentients who have "forgotten their manners". She likes order, neatness, straight lines, folded sheets, use of "please" and "thank you", respect for elders, and clean hands. She dislikes filth, rot, speaking out of turn, and "that look you are giving her right now, young man", which is basically everything that Trexel is. If she was an animal, she would be a swan. Her greatest strength is her sense of what is right, and her greatest weakness is other people's rudeness.
Expediting

The Expediting Department of Stellar Firma is widely considered the lowest of the low, being generally unacknowledged and unknown. Fittingly, the office is a trash compactor. The former Head of Expediting, Mez, was recycled for unknown reasons shortly after the rest of his team. Expeditors are to submit a suggestion for what to do about problems before the end of shift, or they will be crushed to death. Expeditors are not "beings deemed of worth" and clones employed there do not have any sort of pod or the ability to eat, instead getting nutrition mixed into their air supply.

Sales Meeting Room

A cavernous room found off the Sales Consultancy Room in which Trexel and David meet the clients, which Trexel describes as: “an echoing, intimidating hall of commerce. Doors twice as high as a human being. Ceilings three times higher than that. Giant stone tables. Cold, hard furniture, but sumptuous wines and foods.”. It is unclear if this is accurate. The room can also be filled with immense amounts of mud and adorable wildlife at Trexel's command.

## Lyrics

[Speaking]

"This one's for all the haters who are out there saying that I’ve got,

Well, I‘ve not got much on, but you know, I'm—I'm alright,

I’ve got stuff… I'm fine"

[Verse 1]

Up in the morning, find a clean shirt

cuppa hot slurry, out to work

Maintenance, that's the game I’m playing

mediocrity that's how I'm swayin’

Keepin’ these facilities clean and right

simulated dawn, simulated night

Things gumming up the works, there in a flash

recycle unit bust, you don’t need that

Detritus strewn all over this place

here a leg, there a face

The body horror don’t bother me

I'm here to do a job you see

You'd think that that would cause me woe

You’d think that that would stem my flow

When it hits the fan, I've got my plan

I'm a free time man, watch me go

[Chorus]

Put on a holovid and kick back

(I’m a free time man)

See a friend and have a bit of a laugh

(I’m a free time man)

Read a book, maybe a chapter or two

(I’m a free time man)

Travel round this station take in the view

(I’m a free time man)

Um, watch another holovid if there’s one

(I’m a free time man)

See a different friend, I hope that they’re fun

(I’m a free time man)

Oh no! I’ve read this book before

(I’m a free time man)

They won’t let me travel to certain floors

(I’m a free time man)

[Verse 2]

Evening time in the Cosmic Lounge

feeling good just got a round

There's this new cat at the table

won't shut up, don't think he’s able

His monologue is upsetting the room

talking ‘bout his love for a fish and a broom

The regulars they don’t like that

Sweepy Anne’s still mourning her sprat

It’s my free time but just this once

I’ll lent a hand to a needy dunce

Saying Harry's the name, lay it on me friend

now stuck in a nightmare that’ll never end

I did what I now regret

I talked him off his parapet

But he won't go

Won't take no

Ruin all my flow like a strait jacket

[Chorus]

Stole all my holovids won't give them back

(Former free time man)

My friends now just point at me and laugh

(Former free time man)

No books for me, he burnt them too

(Former free time man)

Everywhere on this station he’s spoiling my view

(Former free time man)

It feels like I'm never alone

(Former free time man)

Except the 20 minutes he’s with his clone

(Former free time man)

He’s faked both of our deaths twice

(Former free time man)

Why is there no tool to reset my life?

(Former free time man)

[Speaking]

"So you see, like, to the haters, I’ve got, like, a lot on,

like you know, too much. I wish I could sort of drop,

drop one of the things, anyway... yep"

She's worried about the possible prophetic nature of the dreams, despite the fact that rodentia have been extinct for nearly 800 years. She has had passing experiences with Trexel, which he believes to have been displays of her prophetic dreams, as she warned him of an oncoming wall that he walked into.

They dislike fish, dark colours, circles, mysterious fires, and blatant disregard for the scientific method. If they were an animal, they would want to be the queen honey bee. Their greatest strength is an "unrelenting passion for science!" which they state is also seen as their greatest weakness.

Cranewillis

Cranewillis is an employee of Stellar Firma Ltd and the head of the Build Team. He appears in episode 76 and is revealed to be a part of the group of employees now ruling Stellar Firma. The group also includes Standards, Harry, and I.M.O.G.E.N. Cranewillis is shown to have an enthusiasm for all aspects of building planets, particularly a new kind of soil they've been working on lately. He is then reprimanded and beaten for his enthusiasm by Number 48.

Near the end of the episode, he and the rest of his group are vented out into space in an untraceable pod by Trexel (whom is also in the pod).
Build Team

The Build Team are one of the departments of Stellar Firma Ltd. and are where the planet designs get sent for logistical feasibility and structural analysis. The designs include the brief and a recording of the design session. Members are not low ranking staff, but do appear to be lower on the food chain than Designers. However, this impression does come from Trexel, so they may actually be equally high ranking positions. Members of the build team include Enola, Diane, and Brant (who is "a charmer").

Trexel seems to dislike the Build Team immensely (which is reciprocated, if Enola is anything to go by), saying not to refer to them as it will "encourage them", but also admits that they also do most of the actual work in the design process. Much of the build team allegedly call Trexel "sock boy" after the events of Trash and Mysteries.

Megatron\_46 requests a planet dedicated to the consumption of rare delicacies and the native species of the planet must be unfeasibly aggressive in everything they do.

Consultant recommendation; Prank based planet. Psychically traumatised animals. Planet-wide dining table of massively varying scale. Laser weapons for guests to kill and cook their food. Prank - self evident.

## Synopsis

Trexel arrives the customary 20-25 minutes before the deadline. He has been drinking throughout the weekend and is still in a jolly mood after last week’s positive review.

The day’s client is Megatron\_46. They are asking for a planet dedicated to the consumption of rare delicacies, and their non-negotiable feature is that the native species of the planet must be incredibly aggressive in everything they do.

Trexel starts with a history lesson on humanity’s past with the Megatrons. They originally created Megatron\_1, who was quite lovely, but each iteration was made increasingly advanced. Things really took off with Megatron\_5, who was able to create new Megatrons by themself. They have their own society now and like to occasionally threaten war with humanity but they’re mainly customers.

They do really hate humans though and love to organise groups of people against humanity. This might very well be what the planet is for as, according to Trexel, robots only eat carbon.

Megatrons don’t have faces, just a big plate with a face drawn on it, and they decide to look up Megatron\_46 to get a better feel for them. Their expression is a bit coy, a bit cheeky and Trexel immediately realises that they must have wanted a prank planet all along, and he will not hear any objections from David.

They will have to accommodate any species that Megatron\_46 wants to invite and decide on an incredibly long table that stretches from pole to pole. It will start of enormous, a mile wide with massive chairs, and taper off until it’s small enough to seat even the smallest germ.

To kill two birds with one stone, the delicacies will consist of the unreasonably aggressive fauna. To make the animals aggressive, the planet will be covered in a web of psychic shields set to the emotional trauma setting. Wherever they go, they will constantly be traumatised as they pass through the shields.

Food preparation will simply be handled by providing the guests with laser rifles, allowing them to simultaneously kill and cook any tasty-looking animal. The underlying prank of the planet is that everything will taste of sadness because of the emotional trauma.

David raises some concern that this planet could galvanise an anti-human revolution but they're out of time and and submit the brief. Trexel intends to keep celebrating but before he can leave the office, he simply passes out on the floor.

A Star Marlin is a benevolent being and symbol of peace, hope, and purity throughout the cosmos. They are diametrically opposed to Space Whales, and one was born as part of an art exhibit by Orren Thruul. Their birth and life cycles are notable events, and they are a great interstellar import. That being said, their meat goes for a high price on the black market at Stellar Firma, being praised for it's "transcendental" taste. A drug is also associated with Star Marlins known as Marlin dust. It's unknown whether or not it actually contains Marlin remains.

## Trivia

Orren Thruul is the artist responsible for the popular, yet incredibly long and gory, exhibits *The Birth of The Star Marlin,* as well as *The Rebirth of The Star Marlin*, and asked for a planet to be built for the latter, and was very pleased with 512909- ⏇, becoming a repeat customer.

* Emotional abuse

The Lead Singer of *The Winter Lettuce Collective* requests a Planet to reflect their brilliance, including a sky mood ring.

Consultant Recommendation; Pod category planet in the shape of a lettuce. Pod contains a library of all the clients achievements. Grand atrium with optional memorials to murder and accidental death. Dogs with/without knives. Internal clouds with laser projections to display moods. Constant questions to establish moods.

## Synopsis

Trexel, once again arrives about half an hour before their deadline. He is particularly agitated as their review is tomorrow and line manager Hartro Piltz will judge the planets they’ve designed. If they’re bad, David will die and, more importantly, Trexel will get reprimanded.

They set about designing a spectacular planet for today’s client, the lead singer and only surviving member of *The Winter Lettuce Collective*. They request a planet that reflects their brilliance in every sense, and it must have a mood ring sky.

Unfortunately, no one knows who, or what, the lead singer of *The Winter Lettuce Collective* is. While an entirely dark planet would reflect this sense of mystery, it would hardly be impressive. They look for inspiration in the music of *The Winter Lettuce Collective* instead and decide on a pod planet containing a library of their full body of work.

They consider including a memorial gallery to the dead members of *The Winter Lettuce Collective* but it is rumoured that the one surviving member may have murdered them all. To be one the safe side, they include two galleries. One will be the “I Murdered The Other Members Of My Band” gallery while the other is “The Members Of My Band Were Tragically Killed In A Series Of Unrelated Accidents” gallery. They will rig both will explosives and the lead singer can simply detonate the one they don’t want to keep.

They look to the client’s credit record for more ideas on what to include. They have purchased a lot of ruched fabric, small dogs, and knives, so the obvious option is to include a lot of small dogs in frilly shirts. Half of the dogs will have knives taped to their heads, for a bit of spicy danger. To keep the dogs from killing each other, they will also be doped up on sedatives.

For the sky mood ring they settle on an interior laser show in the gigantic atrium of the planet. Someone will be employed to continually interview the lead singer in order to determine their mood and transmit the data to the laser show. As a bonus, this interview can be broadcast to paying subscribers, which will help pay for all the dog upkeep.

They submit the brief and David is terribly stressed about the upcoming review. I.M.O.G.E.N. suggests recording himself to unwind and David starts an audio blog.

Executive Quarterly - Ep 37Q2FD, H. Piltz (ID 63277482)

## Executive Quarterly - Ep 37Q2FD

This week on Executive Quarterly With Sigmund Shankeray we sit down with Hartro Piltz (ID 63277482), a rising young executive and Line manager who could be destined for great things.

We find out what makes her tick, what she attributes her success to, if she has considered betraying the board, and how she likes to let her hair down out of hours.

Will she survive? It’s Unclear! But rest assured we will have the truth from her come what may.
Earth

Earth is the planet humans, (and therefore Stellar Firma Ltd) bears, bees, and many other still living species originated from. There is a lot of nostalgia for old Earth propagated by Stellar Firma in the name of corporate branding, the animals of Earth in particular seeming to become an aestheticized feature of the current era. That being said, it appears that there is very little actual remaining history of Earth (all but small snippets of archival footage) and contemporaneous historians are piecing together events and traditions that were extremely well documented in their time. Trexel states that people "don't care" about answering questions related to Earth's past. Because of Trexel's unfortunate manner of factual inaccuracies we can count very little of what he states about Earth to be common belief.

## The Great Desolation

Earth was destroyed in the "Great Desolation" the year 2260, at which time all of humanity "volunteered themselves and their genetic legacies to be permanent citizen employees of Stellar Firma Ltd" and live on the Stellar Firma station. There was an "environmental apocalypse" (most likely the Anthropocene Event) which made the planet unlivable and destroyed all of Earth's ecosystems. The hubris of humans that destroyed the Earth is the reason given for why most other species (notably including the Polar Bears) dislike them so much . Most species on earth slowly died out (tigers, barracuda, rodentia) with some exceptions, I.E. Polar Bears and scorpions. From IMOGEN's point of view, the problems on Earth started when the proletariat organised and became armed.

Welcome To The Cosmic Lounge

*Welcome to the Cosmic Lounge* is the first track on the Stellar Firma album, Cabaret Night at the Cosmic Lounge, and is sung/spoken by Sigmund Shankeray.

## Lyrics

[Sigmund Speaking]

Good evening everyone and welcome to Cabaret Night at the Cosmic Lounge; my name is Sigmund Shankeray.

So wonderful to see some familiar faces here in the crowd, as well as the usual rabble and dross.

Now, I want to assure everyone that certain parties are still banned from the Cosmic Lounge, and our security protocols are second to none, so old “glug, glug, yell, yell, smash, smash,” shouldn’t be bothering us tonight.

With that let’s welcome our first employee to the stage; Ah, hmm, I don’t seem to see a name here just—just a weird stain on the sign-up sheet. Well, welcome to the stage this… person!

[moderate applause]

Episode 7 - Trash and Mysteries

## Content Warnings

* Comedic violence
* Violence to animals
* Emotional abuse
* Alcoholism

Lady Wimr Ikipidsah requests a planet where all the lost and found items of the universe end up. All of the items are mysteriously grouped together making a whole continent of odd socks from all the species of the universe that have feet.

Consultant recommendation; Trash collecting black holes. Unknowable sorting system. Self-continenting socks. Fun trash sorting activities provided gratis.

## Synopsis

David wakes up Trexel (who had passed out drunk in his design consultancy office last episode) around 20 minutes before end of shift, telling him he’d already read over the brief (given that Trexel had left the light on), much to Trexel’s dismay. He distracts Trexel by showing him the brief and denying his previous statement. To get David to confess to having already read it, Trexel says he’s got no ideas and suggests they turn in an empty brief (which would result in David’s recycling). David finally admits, resulting in a quick argument, before swiftly moving on to discuss the brief.

David’s idea is that the trash thrown into black holes from around the galaxy is rerouted to all end up at the planet. Trexel suggests that this might be scientifically impossible, but David insists that he knows enough about black holes via accessing IMOGEN to say that this would work. (it wouldn't.) Trexel gets angrier, saying he doesn't want David to learn because that could potentially lead to him sabotaging Trexel. They have a quick spat about the build team, who will assumedly work out the whole black hole thing. They begin to discuss the sorting system, and it becomes clear that David doesn't actually know what a sock is, and upon it being explained, is disgusted, becoming increasingly hostile towards the client’s ideas.

Trexel tries to talk him down, accidentally misgendering the client, which David uses to change the subject and get a jab in at Trexel. As for the sorting system itself, they elect to sort everything between “socks” and “other”. They don’t actually work out how it’ll work, giving that responsibility to The Build Team, saying that the build team is smart and clever so of course they’ll understand how it works, otherwise they’re all idiots, extending this to Lady Wmir Ikipidsah, and titling it the S.O.S.

They finish off by saying the base world will be completely covered in water, and the socks will build a continent on their own. They have a wistful conversation looking back on the design, before Trexel springs on David that he plans to be even later than usual the next day, and running off. David wonders if Trexel isn’t as bad a person as he seems, and then the words hit him like a pile of bricks as he realizes what Trexel said.

Kaliah Tallet

Kaliah Tallet worships a mouse god, Mickolas, and wanted a planet with at least four deathly trials, and a ferris wheel, for the winners. She dislikes mixed martial arts. She wishes she were a mouse concubine. Her greatest strength is her dedication, but she gets nauseous when she's nervous. Trexel and David, in an attempt to sell her a planet, terrified her by convincing her that Trexel was Mickolas (despite the fact that mice went extinct over 800 years ago).
