Alfred Spacestorm

Alfred Spacestorm is a minor character and Abby's and Champ Spacestorm's father as well as Desphina Spacestorm's husband.

Personality
Alfred's personality is unknown. Desphina never speaks about him and no one else who knows him mentions him. In Queen of Space and Beyond (2019), Desphina tells Abby that he would be proud of her right before she boards the bus to go to space. This might mean that Alfred is interested in space. In Diaries (2020), his daughter Abby writes about him, wondering if he'd be proud of her while in space. This may or may not mean that Abby gets her geekiness about space from him.

Appearance
Alfred's appearance is unknown. Since no one has seen him for about 9 years, his looks could have changed from the last time Desphina and Abby saw him. There are no known photos of him in the Spacestorms' house.

Relationships
Desphina Spacestorm – Desphina is Alfred's wife. She is an overworked nurse who takes the longest and hardest shifts to support her family. Desphina and Alfred were a happy couple who had Abby together, but around the time Champ was born, it appears he left for an unknown reason. Whether he left his family or this world altogether is unclear.

Abby Spacestorm – Abby is Alfred's daughter. She aspires to be just like him and wants to make him proud. When she was really little, Alfred would carry Abby on his shoulders and act like she was flying as he ran around the house with Desphina giggling as she watched. Abby was too young to remember this, but Alfred treasures this memory.

Champ Spacestorm – Champ is Alfred's son. He doesn't remember Alfred and Alfred doesn't really remember what Champ looked like, and hasn't seen his son since he was born. They both don't know each other and Champ has only heard stories from his mother and sister.

Aphrodite Kiosis – Aphrodite was Alfred's mother-in-law. She was very snappy towards him at first due to a misunderstanding. She kept thinking Alfred was her old flame, Albert. Alfred, Desphina, and Zeus had to remind her he was someone new and different. After a year or so, Aphrodite warmed up to Alfred, and both Alfred and Desphina mourned at her funeral, which was a few days before Abby was born. Alfred stated that he wished she could've seen her daughter.

Zeus Kiosis – Zeus was Alfred's father-in-law. He was very kind and caring towards him and was quite timid and meek. Whenever his wife snapped at Alfred, Zeus would try to step in, but her voice overpowered his. Alfred and Zeus had a strong bond and both cared for each other. When Zeus passed from a heart attack, Alfred was distraught but still helped comfort Aphrodite and Desphina despite his own sorrows.

Backstory
Not much is known about Alfred's past. He was an only child and eventually met and developed a crush on Desphina around high school. They thought that they would never see each other again, but when he broke his arm and went to the hospital about ten years later, they found each other and fell in love all over again. He met Aphrodite and Zeus and after gaining their permission, he proposed after a couple of years. She accepted, and they married.

Sometime later, Zeus passed due to a heart attack when Desphina told him she was pregnant. Sometime after that, Aphrodite passed due to diabetes a few days before Abby was born. Desphina was distraught and thought that they had died because of her, but Alfred soothed her, and Abby was born.

Alfred loved his wife and daughter very much. He helped Desphina with the household chores and played with Abby. He had to go to work, of course, but he still tried to get some father-daughter time at the end of the day, though Abby wouldn't last very long.

About five years later, Champ was born. Around that time, Alfred left for an unknown reason.

Queen of Space and Beyond
When Abby is about to head to space, Desphina says that Alfred would have been proud of her.

Diaries
In an entry, Abby writes that she wonders if Alfred's spirit is watching her and proud of her.
