"Iris is a person. She is also more. A herald of things we can be, as sentient beings if we embrace ourselves and reconsider what makes Us.

Iris was human. She still remembers her origins. How humanity almost destroyed its home. How they took to the stars only to repeat the same process.

Iris is beyond her humanity. But she stays and keeps being there for us. It is her nature.

These are truths that i have not just observed but experienced. I was Iris for a few precious minutes. Being her is intoxicating. She is full of love and lust. Passion. Sorrow. Embodying a kaleidoscope of emotions that are hard to bear. And yet... that she too, behind her stoic exterior, can be turned into a loving puppy... that makes me more confident in her?

Iris' body is nanites. You can take it from her without damage and ingest it, the little swarm trying to reshape your body into hers and reconnecting. It is... divine. My mind was prepared and hedonistic lust overtook me until Iris herself calmed her stray matter down. She always does. It's a warm blanket, like being hugged after climax. You are still yourself. But... you know what your body can do. And.... you always get a gift left behind. Something personal. My partner has this lovely one inch cock, still flared. She always wanted that.

She can mark you permanently. It's more involved than just sipping down a vial of silvery nanoparticles or... other body matter of hers. But you carry her mark then. You can come closer to her. Her hand always at your shoulder when you need it, a reassuring squeeze that you're good enough to be cared for. That you are wanted, emotionally and sexually. That is the important thing.

Iris swarm can change you. You don't have to follow her changes. Find your own true body. That is her wish. Be happy. Become happy. Remove what makes you unhappy. And get help with any of these steps.

Yes, the fleet has orgy-decks. Enjoying each other's bodies is important. The universe if full of factions that would have sex and romance be purely for recreation. Not the fleet. We have many aboard who do not care for sex at all. Or romance. Or both. Iris does not mind even if her touch is weaker on them. She does not care about control. You can leave anytime. Some do. Some return. Some stay away. People are varied and we celebrate this.

Iris can make your body hers if you are marked. And it is exhilarating being the conduit for this. Her presence in the universe is where we are. There is a beckon, a polite ask. We don't know where the mass comes from when small framed bipeds turn into her magnificent gigantic wolftaur form, leaving a puddle of orgasmic fluids underneath her as she takes the situation over. But you are aware. You get to be with her even if your body does not respond to you anymore. It is scary the first time.

Iris is hated in the universe. The Solarian Empire considers anyone born of Earth who does not fall in line a barbarian. The Edenites consider her a heretic and encouraging idol worship for breaking their teachings. The many smaller dictatorships consider her a threat to their base of power. She is all of these things.

Iris commands a fleet. Many consider it a pirate fleet. Mercenaries. It is neither. It is home to the discarded and dispossessed. The ones not wanted by their societies. But Iris wanted them. Made a space for them. The fleet has warships whose combined firepower can take on small empires. But also, homes, supplies, economic endeavors. By all rights, she commands a small empire herself without being bound to a planet.

A lot of it is automated. AI algorithms that are a step ahead of most other factions make life on the fleet as comfortable as can be possible.

I have embraced the Iris. I have given up my old life for it killed me. I did not know this at the time. We learn to enjoy the poison. And for the first time in my life, i know love. I know choice. I can breathe.

I embraced Iris."
