i'm gonna share a bit of wisdom with you, because this is how i approach writing both my hyper intelligent characters who also happen to be idiots:
you can be super competent in what you do, and still walk into a light pole.
#( ooc )#( tbd )#// thinking about this again today#// mostly because missing the whimsy in emmrich is a mistake#// if he's too serious he stops being who he is#// but seriously#// no one is immune to tripping over their own feet#// and i can't be serious to save my life like...ever#// and if you're not occasionally taking the piss out of your characters#// for being disasters#// are you even living?#// i got one cosplaying a fucking lich the first time you meet him#// who forgets he's got his lich mask on#// and one who has to have the cheez-its hidden from him#// because he'll eat them all#// does that make them any less top of their fields no#// but they are stupid#// and that's where we live#// eta: it ties into i think me hating pissing matches#// and writing characters who know they don't know everything#// and will seek out the people that know what they don't#// instead of being dicks about it ig
