Teresa Parsons née Francis
Summary
Content warnings for this page include: deliberate poisoning, injury by fire, psychiatric hospitalization, consensual incest between adult siblings
Teresa is the queen of the universe. She's a witch by training and a wild magician by inclination. She leads with Astral as they move toward their messy alien future. Despite the fourteen-year age difference between them, she's unintimidated by him and considers him her equal. Beloved by Astral and Georgie, she relishes her time spent funneling her visions and mania into art (acrylic and oil paintings of an occult horror nature) and sex magic. She can get away with anything, even if she's experimenting on Mac for fun.
Personality
Teresa loves to play with fire. She is passionate, clever, and chases thrills wherever she can get them. When she's given room to, she'll demand the attention of everyone around her. She can be underestimated because she's a fashionable young woman, but where Astral might show restraint, considering the long-term effects of setting people on fire, she does not.
Sometimes she can take on more than she can chew, and she's not direct when it comes to her own failures. Still, she tries not to fail with all her might. She's proud, but she can swallow it for her children. She is Mama to everyone in the Connection except for Astral, and it shows.

Magic Powers
Because she has an alien soul, she has always been fluent in pyrokinesis. Unlike Astral, she doesn't burn and never had a need for self-healing magic, although she learns it later when Astral or her family teaches her terran magic. She loves sex magic, and it is the key to long-term body mutations that serve her desire to birth children.
Appearance
Body Features
She stands nearly a foot shorter than her husband and is slight to his broad. She wears her light blonde hair fashionably cut short.
She's transgender. Sometimes she goes through a testosterone-based puberty first, but not all the times. She has tattoos given to her befitting her status as alien royalty.
Clothing and Dress
Teresa wears loose clothing, especially sheer/see-through fabrics and lace. Georgie loves to dress Teresa in particular, so she can often wears some of Georgie's more experimental pieces.
History
The current year is 1969.
Born on August 8th, 1945, Teresa Francis was born, the first child to a purple heart World War II soldier and his wife, in Pasadena, California.
Another version of events has her as the oldest daughter of a Mrs. Francis. They lived with Teresa's grandmother, and she got a sibling, Georgie, when she was seven years old.
Teresa had no questions about her gender and knew she was trans from a very young age. She began to transition socially/medically as soon as possible. In the earliest version, she started HRT at 14, and in the second she never went through a testosteronic puberty.
Creative and crazy, Teresa picked up painting in one of the hospitals she ended up at for her mania. Painting helped stop her setting things on fire, so even though it was expensive and messy her parents happily paid for it.
Somehow, she meets Astral, either at a sex party or at a college party. In the college party version, she and Astral don't stay in touch and Teresa only sees him again because she needed his help solving a magical mystery—why did my sister's hand turn into goo?
Through magical conception, Teresa has Georgie's baby first (cuckolding Astral, who had been trying to get Teresa pregnant), and they name their baby Marvin after Marvin the Martian.
Later, she has Astral's baby, who they name Daffodil or "Daffy", continuing the Looney Tunes theme.
Relationships

Astral: husband
Despite their age difference, Teresa and Astral see each other as equals. They both possess an alien soul, and they believe this makes them superior to others. They make grand plans for their Connection, and Teresa promises that she will birth his child and signal the end of the human reign over their world. If he's bad, like when he torments poor Georgie, she'll poison him and let him wallow in his misery until he rights himself.

Mac: dog
They don't have much in common other than that Georgie loves them both to pieces. They're friendly with each other, but Teresa considers Mac more like a pet than a person sometimes. Mac participates in sex magic rituals like a good boy, and sometimes that means they'll have sex with each other, but they're not sexually or romantically attracted to each other.

Georgie: lover
Georgie is obsessed with Teresa, and Teresa knows and uses that to her advantage. Beyond their connection as the only trans women in the cult, Georgie's obvious infatuation and obsequious nature fans Teresa's ego. Sometimes Teresa can take Georgie for granted, and she can use her against Astral because of his desperation to make her like him the same way she likes Teresa. In stories where they're sisters, Teresa does not immediately accept Georgie's advances, for fear of ruining their relationship should something go wrong, but she overcomes those fears and welcomes Georgie into her bed in a new way.
