#I can't really call the star fleet or even z-stacks found family because they're all bound together out of their will

[bruhstation]

who here loves divorce? I do. here's captain star and captain zero: two people who can't help but drag other unwilling people into their huge mess! including the youth. can't forget the youth

(bit of ramble in the tags)

#this is tugs #tugs captain star #tugs captain zero #tugs ten cents #tugs zip #zerostar #zipcents #<-- let us hold hands through the trials of this world. #fortezza bigg city #senjart #complicated doomed old men yaoi is a bruhstation staple so of course I'm thrilled to show these two #said this to my friend #''what if ''found family'' parental figures have the toxicity of a traditional family's parents. something like that'' #I can't really call the star fleet or even z-stacks found family because they're all bound together out of their will #like a traditional family #also they're people just doing their jobs but the youngest ones definitely got the worst blunt force #related to the animal imagery #ten cents is unwilling to be ordered around 24/7 by captain star and wants to assert his own agency #but due to his status as an employee and a child in star's eyes he can't do much about it other than scoff when star asks where he's been #ten cents is more assertive and stubborn. he desires to fly free and do whatever he wants without getting constantly nagged #zip is more mellow and subdued. he is more obedient and doesn't question much of what he's told #whether it's by zorran zug or captain zero #zip is like if you take a silly jolly golden retriever and try so so hard to train it to become a hunting dog #he regards captain zero highly like a son would to a father. he believes that zero is acting upon tough love on him #when in reality captain zero is just being his impatient distant self. he does care about zip but he also wants profit from it? #''I could guide him at arm's length but I should also have another errand boy in my ranks. it's good that he's obedient'' #also FYI captain star and zero are not horrible people or whatever outlandish thing there is. they're just deeply flawed people- #-with distorted perspective on relationships and morality #anyways. I need a cold beer
