''Binary Stars'' is a [[{{Webcomic}} webcomic]] written and illustrated by Caragh McErlean, also known as Ephermeres.

Anastasia's life has always been safe and secure. But at night, her dreams show her a different life - one with war and conflict and tragedy. She tries her best to ignore it, but her universe is shaken when she's kidnapped by the man in her dreams and told she used to be someone else entirely. Now, she must race across galaxies to discover who she was and who she's meant to be.

!! Tropes in ''Binary Stars'':
*AmnesiacLover: Anastasia very specifically has trouble remembering her former lover, to the point that even in her dreams his name is pixelated out.
*BountyHunter:
*EvilMatriarch: Vidalia Blackford is Anastasia's mother, and also the head of an interstellar corporation. She is established as quite evil early in the story.
*ExtremeOmnivore: Oliver regularly chows down on the food of his alien crewmate, which generally does not agree with his human physiology. He thinks he can handle it because he only got a mild tummyache once from an Ivvoran smoothie, but doesn't remember getting his stomach pumped due to the toxins knocking him out.
*IdentityAmnesia: Anastasia starts off with amnesia, having forgotten her entire identity before a certain incident and believing herself to be part of the Blackford family.
*IdiosyncraticEpisodeNaming: Each episode is named after various astronomical concepts.
*MysticalWhiteHair: Both Anastasia and Vidalia Blackford have white hair. So far it's unknown if there's anything particularly magical about either of them, but the former is the protagonist and the other is shaping up to be a BigBad.
*PsychicPowers: Kass' species has the ability to influence people's minds with her antennae.
*WhiteHairBlackHeart: Vidalia Blackford has white hair like her daughter, but she is definitely black hearted.
*YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Kass, being an alien, has naturally pink hair.
