I have some mermay questions for Iâ, Atrophy, Shama, Oko, Cecile, Salty, and Laeta. What kind of sea creature are they? How do they feel about it? Who finds them? Who takes care of them?
Iâ:
Obviously, some kind of Flying fish, with his feathery wings perhaps changing along with the transformation into more fin-like attachments (also some bioluminesence because that’s cool, too).  It’s probably a spell-gone-wrong; someone attempting to keep him from drowning or something like that. A hurried attempt that ends up causing a mer-elf.  Drauchanar is the one who finds him, let’s be real here, being Iâ’s best friend, and he’s the one who probably cares for him the most.  Not that Iâ doesn’t appreciate help from others, but he’s already self-conscious of his appearance and Drau and Damian are like, the only two he can really be himself around.  Laer wouldn’t bother him too much, either, mostly because Laer just /doesn’t care/ and everyone knows.  As for the transformation itself...having to only breathe water is annoying, and his wingfings are weird and a bit cramped.  Also his hair is not perfect and just...appearances are important for elves and this is not doing it for him.  He’s grumpy.
Atrophy:
Ha!  A taste of weirdness medicine.  She’s some black Betta fish type; all fancy, flowy, feathery fins because...it’s Atrophy.  It’s Hekla and Ben who find her as they’re walking home, and they drag her back to Carter’s place so she can chill in his apartment tub.  Dev definitely calls and mocks her while also worrying uncontrollably.  She hates it.  The water, being wet all the time, the roughness of the scales, the gills...she hates all of it.  She and Ethan would get along real well. 
Shama: 
Sailfin Blenny, with a huge, striped dorsal fin and the perfect camo colors for hiding on the bottom of pools in the palace gardens.  Probably an attempt to ruin his life (again), and now he’s a flopping half-Blenny.  He’s probably found by some nice servants who came into the market to get food, and he’s brought back to the palace.  Depending on if his dad is found yet, it’s probably Luca who has to take care of him.  Being a merman is okay..free movement and being able to explore the bottoms of pools is cool.  Breathing underwater and having the weight of water constantly over him is discomforting and he doesn’t like that. 
Oko:
Peppered Moray Eel.  Varnin finds him..or..his clones do and then they have to modify one of the rooms of their ship to hold a now water-breathing Jedi Knight.  Either that or he and his padawan just so happen to be in the same area as Cadras and Dasire, who have to drag him out of a life-threatening situation and onto their dumpy little ship to drop him off at the nearest Jedi Base with lots of water.  Again, they’d have to modify a spot to hold him and water.  Despite how apathetic they are about everything...this definitely weirds the twins out enough to show some emotion about the whole ordeal.  Oko doesn’t like how long his tail is, he doesn’t like his sudden desire for raw fish and other little critters, or his ability to now electrocute people who touch him.  But the whole breathing-underwater part is pretty cool and his hair is majestic and flips about when he comes out of the water. 
Cecilia:
Veil Angelfish, bluish with white constellation speckles down her tail and long, feathery, whispy fins.  It probably happens while Kaz is at work and..let’s be real..some neighbor finds her so Kaz gets home and now she’s at the aquarium or something like that.  Leading to a scenario where he has to rescue his now very Siren wife and majestically fly her back to their apartment where he can make her all cozy in their bathtub.  He is such a doting husband and worries over her a bunch.  She doesn’t like how she’s pretty much a literal Siren now, and she doesn’t like how worried this all makes her husband. Also, she can’t hug him because his wings would get all soggy and uncomfortable.  She doesn’t really enjoy any of it.  
Salty: 
Blue-Ringed Octopus.  It’s amazing, how calm he acts in most situations, but this completely throws him for a loop.  Not only is he now part sea critter, but a highly toxic one, to boot.  His friends, Sam and Luna, have to be cautious in handling him, and he is highly agitated the entire time.  Having eight extra limbs is useful in some ways, and he makes himself as useful as possible in the meantime.  Like everything else in life, he tries to take this in stride, trying to keep a lid on his emotions.  Luna and Sam both help him equally, helping him to realize that it’s okay for him to let a bit of his scared, anxious energy out while they work on a way to fix this.
Laeta:
Probably due to weird radiation or being saved from drowning by some well-meaning species, Laeta is part stingray, with gorgeous, wing-like extensions to her arms and a curled, thick, whip-like tail that lashes about when she’s agitated.  She is cared for by her fiance Aldaar, as this would happen while she’s on the USS Trailblazer.  She has a lot of fun getting to hear stories from engineers (she’s kept in an empty storage crate filled with water, and there are a lot of engineers in the area).  She gets to learn more about Ivek and likes hearing about his plans for marrying Leanna and the wedding and all the kids they want to have.  She actually doesn’t really mind any of the situation.  The only part that she doesn’t like is that she could hurt anyone who doesn’t handle her gently.

“Why do you hate me” Dev and Cecilia or Das and Oko :)
I’m going to assume you meant Dev and Cecile. Though Cecilia and Dev would probably get along, too ~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Why do you hate me?” Cecile murmurs, tugging on a black glove.  The only one listening in on the conversation is her reflection in the bathroom mirror, and she stares back with a dull, judging look as Cecile examines her makeup.  A bit of blush has added color to her cheeks, which are as pale as the rest of her skin.  Watery irises squint so she can better apply the red lipstick and mascara.  Once this minimal bit of face care is done, Cecile  exits the bathroom, coming to the main room of her little apartment.  
“Why can’t we just have a normal dinner? By ourselves?” 
She grabs a cloak, pulling it on over her deep purple dress.  The comfy, silky fabric entirely hides what little of her bare arms still show through the dress sleeves and elbow-length black gloves.  
“Why do we have to visit with this family?  What are they going to think?  Why does it matter so much that they know?”
As a finishing touch, Cecile adjusts a black, wide-brimmed hat atop her black, chin-length hair.  Then she adds a pair of black shades.  They will hide her eyes’ unnatural, faded blue.
Just as she steps back into the bathroom to examine herself a final time, there’s a knock on the door, and she trips across the room in high heels to answer it. 
She takes in the young man in the doorway.  He’s holding a bunch of flowers, some wilting, and his kurta has a whitish spot or two at the bottom hem.  Of course, he does run an orphanage, so she’s somewhat surprised his curled hair isn’t entirely shaved off or that his face doesn’t have little doodles all over it.
“..Cecile,” he greets in his usual kind of tone.  It’s rather no-nonsense, as he’s used to talking to many people who are smaller and younger than himself on a daily basis. 
She inclines her head, extending a gloved hand for him to take.  A tiny smile graces her features; it’s just as stiff and cool as the rest of herself. 
“Dev Khanna.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The drive is rather quiet, though not in a hostile way.  Dev talks about the latest escapades at the orphanage..who got what in someone else’s hair, who lost a toy, what new power decided to manifest itself among the few powered children he housed.  Cecile deigns to comment every now and again, mostly keeping her gaze fixed on the window.  The sun is setting, giving way to a dusty, dark bluish twilight.  Soon she’ll be able to see the first few stars. 
“...-and that’s all their names.  Don’t worry. There won’t be a quiz.”  Dev is chuckling quietly and Cecile drags her attention back to him.
“What?”
Dev laughs again.  It’s a warm, gentle noise. 
“I was just reminding you the names of the family we’re visiting.  Jonothan.  Who are the twins..?”
Cecile waves a hand.  “I know them.  We’ve met, remember?  Just a bit..and they don’t like me.”
Dev steals a glance at her when they pull to a stop sign. His brows crinkle together and he shakes his head. 
“..That’s when you were terrorizing other Mavericks and setting off their powers with your ability.  And now you’re not doing that.  Now, you’re my girlfriend and I know that they’ll respect you.”
Cecile huffs, letting out a sound like a scoff. 
“They don’t trust me. They have every right not to trust-”
“-They trust me,” Dev interjects as he turns the car into a parking lot.  “At the very least, they trust me.  And so they’ll trust you because of me.”  He puts the car into park and slides out, jogging around the car to pull open her door and take her gloved hand.
“And after tonight, they’ll trust you because you're trustworthy.”
Which..is a stupidly cliche thing for Dev Khanna to say, maybe, but he’s doing that little smile and offering his hand, so instead of a snarky response, Cecile will smile back.
And maybe she’ll believe his mushy words, tonight.

Quarantine questions for some of your babs :) how do Cecile, Cecilia, Markus, Myro-Raiko, Jaffa, Iâ, Angel and Elliot handle quarantine?
I haven’t been avoiding this ask; I just haven’t had tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime
(blaming work and school for this one)
Cecile:
- Is more antsy than she probably knows
- pitters around in her lab but wants to be outside
- Dev and the kids stress her out
- a lot
- tries not to show it because Dev is not sleeping and can’t even do laundry
- Orders a lot of food and new stuff for the kiddos to try to curb their boredom 
- Spends a lot of time cleaning their house and preparing spontaneous date nights for herself and Dev 
- also spends whole days just changing in and out of outfits
- Snaps more and is definitely more sarcastic
- “Sorry Dev I can’t hold the screaming child I’m not allowed to touch people remember?”  “This kid isn’t a MAVERICK, HOLD IT”*disgruntled grumbling*
Cecilia:
- hates it
- she has daily routines like shopping and walking in the park and can’t
- complains to Kaz
- bunches
- drapes herself on a lot of couches
- takes walks in their backyard and records little videos of herself like it’s a nature documentary
- doesn’t show these to Kaz but may start a YouTube channel because she’s that bored 
- Would do something like an Etsy shop but she isn’t sure if she’s patient enough to actually craft anything 
- also complains about this to Kaz
Markus:
- “What a great day to go out and-”“We can’t, Sweetie”“:C”
- Still goes to work and has to wear a mask 
- His wife sews him a cute one with little dogs on the fabric
- Video chats with his friend Fletcher
- Date nights with Juni
- Lots of catching up on TV shows
- he can quote whole seasons
- someone help his wife
- runs out of medication at some point and kinda shrugs it off because it’s not like it really helped
- potentially leading to a situation where he has to tell Juniper about his powers
- so....a stressful time but not because of the quarantine itself
Myro-Raiko:
- Myro loves the outside.  He’s miffed.  He doesn’t want to stay inside 
- Raiko could literally laze on a couch all day
- lots of book flinging
- “I WANNA SIT BUT I ALSO DON’T”
- Fo and him have races and marathons in the Temple
- no one else is thrilled
- Raiko and Ksoral play a lot with her bears
- so many adventures 
- they go all over the Temple
- so much drama and heartbreak happens in these stories
-  trying to explain it to Fo or Di’Klo is weird 
- interesting conversations
Jaffa:
- Quarantine??
- joke’s on everyone he’s already quarantined to his archive
- cleans the books and shelves a lot
- “Fizzles you’re just in time to re-clean all these holobooks!!!”
- still hugs his friends unless they say no
- social distancing? Never heard of it 
Iâ:
- he has Valley Elf in his blood
- can’t NOT go outside 
- but he stays away from most people
- takes the bottles from Damian after he’s been hitting it
- “How can your wife know the real you when you’re drunk all the time?”
- Visits the sick in the court on behalf of the king
- spends a lot of time preening his wings and sorting through royal outfits for himself
- helps Damian with words and little things like that
- “Wrong fork, Damian.”
- disgruntled bird elf dad
Angel:
- volunteers to help anyone who might be sick in the Safe House
- comforts those who have sick people in their family
- runs errands and buys things for at-risk people 
- so he doesn’t really get stir-crazy
- lots of prayers and novenas for health and safety
- a bro for everyone 
Elliot:
- has always been stir-crazy
- the problem now is that everyone else is getting that way, too
- “NO I DON’T HAVE A PROJECT FOR YOU TO DO, GO AWAY”
- horns are also growing out of his forehead at this time so he has headache
- fun times
- They run out of coffee
- dark times
- very dark
- falls asleep under his desk more than once 
- this man needs hugs
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thanks for the ask, @supesofherown!

“It’s late.  Shouldn’t you be asleep?” Dev and Atrophy :3
For your listening pleasure and the inspirational song for this prompt, I suggest one listen to “Someone Else’s Story”, from Chess in Concert.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She couldn’t sleep, which was a common enough occurrence. 
Her body hung in a delicate balance between life and death, caught in an endless cycle of pain that she had caused by choice and now couldn’t end.  It was the curse of an experiment she had agreed to…all for what?  Recognition?  The self-satisfaction of knowing she was right?
Cecile propped herself up on the front step of the little condominium she had..ah..borrowed from its previous inhabitant.  Here she can look up at the India sky, trying to pick a few stars from the tatters of cloud and black patches of night that passed overhead. 
“It’s late.  Shouldn’t you be asleep?”
Cecile turned her head to the doorway behind her, to the shadowy figure in long, colorful robes.  He would advance, step by careful step, ever so formal and stiff and deliberate in his every action…!
He would stop behind her, not quite sitting down, yet.  Though he acted like he didn’t really care, he was conscious of his own appearance and the state of his clothing.
Fire raced through her veins instead of blood.  It burned and itched in a way she could neither really describe nor relieve. 
So she would shake her head.  She never really had a reason or a desire to lie to this man.
“I can’t.”
She had done it to herself…tried to give herself a power she was never meant to have.  She’d become the first Synthetic superhuman, with dire consequences.  A life of anguish in return for her attempts to reach godhood.
Ah…but despite the state of her heart, her mind..despite herself, he would only look at her with kindness.  Perhaps a touch of sadness, too.  
“You should sleep, Dev,” Cecile would answer.  She would then curl herself a little tighter, tearing her gaze from him in hopes he would go back inside.  
She was afraid of him never really caring for her.  She was afraid he would never stop. 
But Dev wouldn’t leave.
No.
That wouldn’t be like him.
Instead, he would sit down beside her, the wooden porch step creaking under their combined weight.  And he would look at her with his great, flickering eyes..so old, set in such a young face..!
He would find her hand, covered in black gloves, and he would hold it in his brown, sunkissed ones.  His hands had wiped tears from the faces of orphans, helped them get dressed, served them meals, picked up their messes, carried sleeping children to bed…
…His hands dealt only kindness, and they were open to the weak and defenseless. 
Did he think of her in that way?
It would take a moment, but Cecile would finally, slowly, give into his stubborn kindness.  She would rest her head on his chest, and they would search for stars together.  He wouldn’t touch her bare skin - if he touched her, her Synthetic abilities would cause him much pain - but he would hold her very gently, as if she were something easily broken.
Or perhaps as if she were something incredibly precious.
She would…and he would…
…If he were actually there, of course.
Cecile’s hand groped at empty air.
The fire burned in her veins, and its scorching heat made her skin warm and her vision cloudy.  She was propped up on the front stop of a little condominium she had borrowed from an absentee owner, the India sky over her head, and her body burned with the recurring fever that had plagued her ever since she agreed to become the world’s first Synth.
And she was utterly, entirely alone.
Cecile’s eyelids flickered dangerously.  Sleep, a troubled, hazy sleep, tugged at her senses.  It hardly offered peace, but it promised relief from the relentless pain, the throb of her head and the fire in her joints and the stabs that any light source made to her eyes. 
It promised another feverish dream..one of love and care and gentleness she’d come to realize was never hers..could never be hers.
So she curled herself on the wooden railing, holding her head precariously in a cupped palm.  Cecile could dream…and were she capable of prayers, she would pray that Dev would return to her.
Even if he only ever would come in a dream.

OC Study - Mutant Edition - Cecil Derosa
Apparently all my OC’s right now are mutant-related. (not true, actually, but they certainly are the best-developed as of right now, so)
@supesofherown ________________________________________________________________
Name: Cecile Elena Derosa/Atrophy Nationality: Sicilian Age: Just turned 29 Appearance Overview: 5′3″ in height (160.02 cm if we’re going with the metric system, used in Sicily). All kinds of unhealthy in terms of appearance, with abnormally pale skin and faded, though still black, cropped hair that comes to her chin (longer in the front). Small mouth, dimples when smiling (rare), darker shades of makeup, and perpetually dull eyes, also with a slightly “bleached” quality, making them extremely light, milky blue. Small hands and feet and not much curve to her overall shape. Universe: Marvel X-Men Universe Species: Artificial Mutant/X-Synthesis Survivor Abilities: Atrophy possesses the ability to trigger a power manifestation in other mutants via touch; aggravates the X-gene and takes away a mutant’s ability to control their own power(s). Also her touch leaves a unique “stamp” which can be tracked within a certain radius.  Can’t control her own ability and triggers a reaction with any touch. Family:
None worth mentioning
Friends:
Carter Key is the closest thing to a friend she’s had a in a long time
Aesthetic: Pounding rain that rattles window frames, with wind tearing at tree branches and thunder rolling overhead. Standing still in the middle of a busy, crowded metro or train station, watching the world and people around you go past.
Outfit of Choice: Anything dark, preferably black, to keep her from standing out too much.  Black, floppy-brimmed hat, black shades, and black gloves that go past the elbow.
Favorite Food: Simple, light breakfast food. An egg sandwich with fresh veggies and a cup of black coffee; seafood as well, since she came from Sicily.  Hates American food.
Fast Facts:
Eye color was originally dark blue with brown specks
Sociopathic tendencies
Very big ego - usually motivated by gain (or personal spite)
Arc is moving towards her becoming something of an anti-hero/confidant for certain mutants
Less of a hatred for mutants and more of a general dislike for people in general
Has actually, pro-actively assisted mutants (e.g. saved Carter’s life)
Carter is one person she trusts
Becomes kind of like a little sister to Carter...a very crazy, slightly insane little sister
Likes hats 
Wants to have a cat at some point in time
Used to have unicorn wallpaper as a kid - drew other animals over them because they were too pink and girly and not /real/ unicorns
Crap immune system
Likes Classical music
Would prefer to sleep in
Background: Atrophy was a young scientist in Sicily who became involved in a project with an original goal to monitor mutants and their activity through various means.  Eventually, she worked on a developing side-project: the X-synthesis, i.e. a man-made replica of the X-gene naturally found in mutants.  The overreaching goal was to make it possible to give humans certain “useful” mutations, and Cecile freely opted to be one of the test subjects of the gene.  The process left her with her odd ability, bleached appearance, and her body hangs in a delicate, painful balance of accepting the new, modified genes and rejecting them completely.  She currently is swinging back-and-forth between being a mutant-hunter of sorts and a confidant who occasionally assists them.
Songs for OC:
Ain’t it Fun - Paramore
Main Attraction - Jeremy Renner
Bad Blood - Imagine Dragons
Gold - Imagine Dragons
Control - Halsey
I’m the Bad Guy - Wander over Yonder
Not Evil - Lego Movie 2
Danse Macrabe - Camille Saint-Saens
Lots of opera

OC Study - Dr. Wolfgang “Wolfie” Bacot
Another one of these, but with an entirely original character for a change.  He’s featured in this short drabble as well.
____________________________________________________
Name: Wolfgang “Wolfie” Marian Bacot/Stimulus
Age: 32
Nationality: Lots of French in his family, born in Tennessee 
Appearance Overview: 5′8″, with messy, dark hair, constantly defying hairbrush and gel attempts.  The beginnings of a beard on his chin, around his lips, and, running up his cheeks.  Eyes that were dark green, now they sport a milky, bleached hue.  Abnormally pale skin, giving a look a transparency and fragility.  Sturdy build, pet hair covering his clothing. 
Universe: Original Universe - shared with @supesofherown
Species - Synthetic Maverick - Human with man-made powers introduced into his system
Abilities: Hypersensitivity - Dialed-up senses that allow him to feel, see, smell, etc. beyond the normal person’s ability.  Since the ability is man-made and unnatural in his system, he’s unable to control it, causing his senses to often be overwhelmed with the amount of outside stimulus he can’t filter through.
Family:
Claude René Cabot - younger brother & natural-born Maverick
Marie Sophia Cabot - Mother
Thomas Joseph Cabot - Father 
Friends:
Carter Francis Key - owned by @supesofherown
Cecile Derosa - fellow Synth
Ernesto - shared oc with @supesofherown
Milo - owned by @supesofherown
L’esprit - French pirate dude shared with @supesofherown
Outfit of Choice: Dark clothing, a scarf, a hoodie, gloves, sunglasses, and earplugs/ear mufflers - anything to muffle his senses
Favorite Food: Soft, quiet food, preferably without a strong smell.  Applesauce is his go-to.
Fast Facts:
Used to have a loud laugh and loud voice before getting “Synthed”
loves fluffy animals
Is a vet
Rough-and-tumble personality
Got in with a bad crowd in late high school/early college years and went to jail for theft and accidental arson
Became a vet after getting out of prison and is trying to live a better life
The beard is because shaving is loud and hurts his ears
His ears have bled from normal phone calls
Would do almost anything for his little bro
Loves his job
Background:  After getting out of jail for past mistakes and faults, Wolfie pursued a career as a vet.  One night, coming home from work, he’s kidnapped and used as a guinea pig in the creation of the first Synthetic Serums, designed to give super-human abilities to people.  As the Synthetic formula was still largely in developmental stages at this time, Wolfie survived, but with severe side-effects.  The serum gave him hypersensitivity abilities, but they’re largely uncontrolled, and his body is hung in a delicate balance of integrating/rejecting the Synthetic formula, which is a painful state all on its own.
Songs for OC:
Morning Glow - Pippin Musical
Son of a Gun - Eric William Morris 
The Guide to Success - Eric William Morris (language in this one though)
Bleeding Out - Imagine Dragons
The Cave - Mumford & Sons
Monster - Imagine Dragons
Thousand Eyes - Of Monsters and Men
Run Boy Run - Woodkid
Flaws - Bastille
