[locusustus]

i hate looking at these old pictures of me because all i can see is how vacant i am and god i hope nobody else sees it too - zwei, probably

[locusustus]

90% sure the plot/concept is identical to some pre existing media bc of how well its crystallizing in my mind but whatever its compelling to me and thats All that matters

thank you to whoever brought up ball tickets in my school GC bc my 45 minutes of walking and fuming about British higher education culture has spawned a coherent albeit absurd plot for the dark macadamia AU

[locusustus]

ANSWERING THE OTHER ASK GAME THING SOON I JUST WANTED TO DRAW SOMETHING FOR IT

[locusustus]

16 (appearance), 16 (objects) Zwei 7 (food & drink), 17 (community & relationships), 20 (community & relationships) Vier 17 (mind), 14 (mind), and 10 (community & relationships) for Teucer (Just feel free to pick and choose if you don't want to do them all)

I'm in a boring af induction rn so answering them ALL (link here)

ZWEI

16 (appearance): She's put herself together in a way that's meant to be deceiving but is really telling if you're outside the story and know enough about her as like. A human person instead of a stalker that inflicts brunt force trauma on people. Dresses in a big off-the-shoulders coat and bulky equipment to look larger, hides her face most of the time, etc. In a literal way, she's also a clone and shares the same features as the original despite being a very different person so make of that what you will.

16 (objects): More of a "fine, I'll do it myself" kind of person. Hates relying on perceived authority AND perceived inferiors resulting in not asking anyone for much of anything.

VIER

7 (food and drink): She has a modified metabolic system built like a tank to withstand the pilot nootropic regimen so it takes a lot to get her sick (and intoxicated). That being said, she's definitely misjudged her alcohol tolerance and anything that smells/tastes nasty enough probably qualifies. Though that also probably takes a lot bc her olfactory bulbs are probably also super burnt out.

17 (community and relationships): Feeling useful makes her feel good! Her communication skills can be quite.....bad, but she prefers working with someone else for the instant feedback over working alone. Asynchronous teamwork would stress her out so much though so luckily she lives in 30XX and not 2024.

20 (community and relationships): Context dependent but usually very little; she has a self sacrificial streak and while being very capable, usually overestimates her strength. Needs very little convincing to throw a punch on someone's behalf.

TEUCER

17 (mind): Circadian rhythm is a difficult thing underground + being in a planetary colony. She does tend to wake up early though.

14 (mind): HARD TO THINK OF TBH! At the outset of the whole narrative she IS trying to resolve a codependent sibling relationship so she probably craves being truly convinced that there's nothing she has to live up to/she doesn't have to take responsibility for her kin. She'd also like to hear that she's free to leave at any time but that's even more unrealistic

10 (community and relationships): Finding it hard to be /srs about this one but she did pick up a really intense staring habit from her adoptive brother
