Wilma & Vladimir - The Story (so far)

 Wilma & Vladimir


This is the story of Wilma and Vladimir, told the way it actually happened — not the order I built it in, but the order they lived it. Some chapters already exist as finished dioramas. Others are still waiting for the right idea to click into place. Follow along, or jump straight to whichever moment catches your eye.

EARLY DAYS

001 First Encounter
Location: UEO Academy, Helios Station
Cadet Wilma watches Vladimir during an EVA outside the station. Their first encounter

Wilma and Vladimir, honeymooning toward Prima Prime. An early chapter in their life together.

Arrival in the "City of a Thousand Domes." The beginning of a new shared chapter. And a visit to the Robert A. Lee Museum.
004 Plumbing
Location: Prima Prime
Wilma's Nano-Mission — one of the early, wonderfully absurd episodes of her career.
005 Hello Sweetie

Vladimir working the platform above Marlene. An early Wilma/Vladimir moment: "Hello, Sweetie."

CARSENDO

006 Are we lost?
Location: Serbaris in the Koppmeyer II Sector
The first joint SESG mission, with Klausz. The landing doesn't go as planned — Carsendo is already waiting above them.

Wilma, Vladimir, and Klausz — with several GB-2 units and pre-positioned containers — build the first Carsendo Base. The main team arrives later.
008 First Steps
Location: Carsendo
First explorations beyond the base. Carsendo turns from a mission site into an actual world.

Wilma doing yoga. Young Hercules approaches on his own and sniffs at her hand. Hercules finds Wilma.
010 I know the way!
Location: Carsendo
Wilma claims to know a shortcut to the base - straight through the jungle!

011 Wilma's House    
Location: Carsendo
Daily life on Carsendo. Wilma and Vladimir have made their corner of the base their own; Klausz lives separately, in his own small "bungalow."

012 Tunnel
Location: Carsendo
Wilma, Vladimir, Klausz, and GB-2 explore an underground passage discovered by chance the day before.

INTERLUDE

Wilma and Vladimir enjoy their vacation after Carsendo on the Space-Vespa. The glowing engine trail traces their wild flight path. 

015 SPLAT!
Location: SESG Materials & Suit Testing Facility
Vladimir is tasked with the durability testing of the new space suits as well as the structural integrity of the new light weight armor plates.

016 Hot Springs

A quiet vacation scene. Wilma with a swim ring in the hot spring, Vladimir with a rubber duck. No big plot — deliberately.

ATLAN TISI SLOST

017 The Frozen Vestiges of Atlan Tisi Slost
Location: Atlan Tisi Slost
Both stand on a plateau. Wilma spots the distant statue and points; Vladimir is already looking for a way down.

018 The Halls
Location: Atlan Tisi Slost
Beneath the ice, a massive artificial structure. Parts of it still work: "It's still working." — "...then it's not empty."
019 The Silent Throne
Location: Atlan Tisi Slost
The throne room — statue, sphere, star-map relief. The connection to earlier finds deepens, but stays unresolved. The expedition ends here.

INTERLUDE

020 Danger Surf
Location: Northgard
Wilma surfs a massive wave — and gets eyed as a possible breakfast by a Cultösaurus. Her solo counterpart to Vladimir's SPLAT!

ORTHEA IV

Landing capsule, with Wilma, Vladimir, and Klausz. The start of what begins as a routine SESG field mission.

Location: Somewhere nice
A light, personal vacation moment after Orthea. Wilma and Vladimir, simply a couple again.

KERBAL

Vladimir investigates Cymoril's hoard. The diorama captures the quiet second before it all goes wrong — Vladimir searching, Cymoril already watching from behind.
026 Wilma and the Dragon
Location: Kerbal
 After the escalation, an injured Vladimir lies behind her. Wilma calmly faces the giant Cymoril, one hand on its snout, eye to eye — and the familiar whale symbol shimmers in Cymoril's eye.

KATHARSIS

027 I paint the stars for you
Location: unknown
After the near-fatal encounter, Vladimir falls into a deep depression, blaming himself for putting Wilma in danger. Wilma tries to reach him.

Vladimir's turning point — his figurative "rebirth" after the crisis.

029 Serenity
Location: unknown
Vladimir finds a quiet moment of peace after Kerbal and everything that followed. The close of this emotional chapter.
