One-word titles don't give you a lot to go off, but I would have assumed it had something to do with space. Maybe. Greek words are used for practically everything in fiction nowadays, so it's hard to be confident about what it might mean. But for some reason or other, Delta makes me think about stars.
I love the descriptions, they're what made me subscribe to this thread in the first place. I like sci fi action, I haven't seen a scifi romcom yet but I would like to, and making them space lesbians and including disability just makes it more memorable. I like seeing things I haven't seen yet, and this is indeed something I haven't seen yet.
(Also I don't know anything at all about NYC, so I'm curious how seeing NYC as a planet holds up in keeping the interest of an unfamiliar foreigner.)
The involvement of the different societies isn't that clear yet, but I'm keeping in mind the fact that there's only one short chapter at the moment.
I mean, there's the descriptions, which are good, but nobody's gonna give themselves a refresher on them before reading a chapter every time a new one comes out, so the bits of it that matter are gonna have to be worked into the story itself. But you know, basic stuff you were probably doing anyway. I'll try to avoid lecturing you about that.
For now I'd say the prime attractor to this series is the novelty of the premise (scifi romcom lesbian with aliens and action and NYC as a planet) and all you need to do to make it work long term is good solid world and character building. I'm confident in the character descriptions I saw, looks like you know what you're doing there. I'm interested in seeing more of how the'll play out in practice.
And then there's worldbuilding, which I'm looking forward to. Though again, I'm unfamiliar with the place, so keep that in mind if I get confused about something every kid in America knows.
As for what you asked about people objecting to the types of characters you made, I don't think anyone should have objections, but I can't help but wonder why you felt compelled to ask that. Are you confident in your ideas?
I'll try give some feedback on the actual chapter as well.
I really liked the details of the car being an amalgam of an old car and a new one, I like how Harry's dark colours are kind of more conspicuous than Robe's neon.
One thing I'd like more clarification on is Harry's amphibian biology. I know she has legs, but what are they like? I don't have a clear understanding of what the human-to-fishperson ratio of her amphibian-ness is, so I don't understand just how much this affects her life.
Welp hope that was helpful
