>>4026082Zeon is having a rough time finding his place in the world. He's teased by other boys his age because his father is in the civil military maintenance division of the city vessel they live in, but his mother is an artist that makes art for those with nothing better to spend their money on. His father married upwards in the social ladder, and Zeon doesn't know which of their footsteps he wants to follow in, he's naturally gifted at painting, but many scoff at painting and view it as archaic, outdated, and pointless, so he's being pushed towards the military after his father even though it isn't where he wants to go. It doesn't help that he's shy by nature, and all the artisans that he's met by association of his mother view him as a peer because of his talent, and that puts a spotlight on him he doesn't like. He feels trapped in his own life because the path he wants to take puts him in a position that directly conflicts with his shy nature. To make things more confusing at this time in his life, one of his father's subordinates in the military branch is also his best friend in spite of the fact that he is only 11 years old and the man is twice his age. He's a maelstrom of confused emotions and ambitions that tear him in opposite directions.
There, I've provided the setting, a starting point, and some conflict. If you guys want the story made someone else has to take a turn.
