Occasionally, you would remember what it was like to work for Dr. De Kuiper. He was an intelligent man who always had his priorities straight. He was also funny, so he was really easy to work with. But ever since the... incident, you just... stopped talking. He was taken to the asylum and no matter how many times you tried to visit, either the doctors, or De Kuiper himself would deny you.

You were alone for years. Research never felt the same so you quit and found new jobs. The world felt quiet without his silly jokes and his random piano playing way too early in the morning. You missed him and you really wanted him back.

And then, by complete coincidence, you met a woman. She was tall, very tall and one of her arms was a dark shade of purple with long claws like an animal. She went by Moira and she worked with a powerful group. This group was called Talon and you were asked to join it.

"You're great at what you do," she had told you, flipping through your old research notebooks and binders. "And I want you to join."

You had not a clue how she had made her way into Dr. De Kuiper's old office, but to be honest, you shouldn't have been there either. You just wanted to see how run down it was... that was all.

You didn't deny. You honestly didn't have a choice. You had no job and were living off of the little money you had left, trying to find something that would fit you, but nothing did. But when Moira told you what potential you had and what you could be doing, who were you to deny?

Stepping foot into the Talon headquarters was like a bad dream. It was dark and cold and the only noises were coming from leaks in the ceiling or from Moira's office. Everyone gave you death glares as you walked in and your eyes immediately locked onto a man with a skull mask, his breathing sounded weak. You quickly turned away, not knowing what his expression was saying under that mask and continued to follow Moira.

"What will I be doing here?" You asked, shivering knowing that the gaze of the other members were burning into the back of your neck.

"You will be my assistant," she said, unlocking a large door with a big klunk. "I saw the work you did for Dr. De Kuiper and needless to say, I'm impressed. Follow me."

She led you into a large, freezing cold room, and you swore you could see your breath. "Why is it so cold?" You shivered, looking at all of the oddities on the counter tops including a large centipede in what looked like a pet's cage.

"For the experiments, of course." She threw open a closet at the end of the room and pulled a lab coat over her shoulders, handing you one as well. "Ready to start working?"

You nodded and pulled the coat on quickly. It wasn't as thick as a coat, but it would do enough to keep you warm for a little while. "What are we working on today, doctor?" You quickly pulled out a notebook and a few pens and looked around the room.

"A friend," she said with a faint smile on her lips.

You tilted your head, confused and she excused herself. You didn't know what to make of this new job, but honestly, who were you to judge?

Moments later, Moira walked back into the room, empty handed.

"Where's the-"

"He's getting prepped," Moira interrupted, knowing what you were going to say. "Sigma should be in here eventually."

"Sigma." You echoed. Talon did have some strange names for their crew.

"Sorry about that, doctor," a voice said, the door sliding open. "I didn't mean for that to take so long! I've just had this song stuck in my head all morning and I've been trying to recall the melody!"

You froze, dropping your binder. Was this real?

The man who walked in looked at you with shock painted on his face. "y-y/n?"

"Dr. De Kupier?! I thought.... I thought you were in the asylum! What are you doing here?!"

"I should ask you the same! You're supposed to be taking care of my lab, aren't you?" His tone sounded serious and you got quiet.

"M-My apologies, doctor, I just-"

"I'm just playing with you!" Siebren laughed, wrapping his arm around you. "God, is it good to see you."

You couldn't help yourself and you completely encased him in your arms for a hug. "Doctor, it's been too long."

"Please," he said, rubbing your lower back. "Call me Seibren, okay?"

You looked at him with teary eyes, lightly tracing your fingers over the scar on his face. "Alright. Just... what are you doing here? Why aren't you back at the lab?"

"My place is better here," Siebren said, pointing to the room. "I have potential with my new abilities and I've been told that I can hone that potential here."

You smiled slightly. You weren't sure if he was right. This place made you feel... uncomfortable and cold. You didn't want to picture Siebren here for the rest of his life. "Siebren... I just don't know if-"

"Shall we get to testing then?" Moira gave you a glare that could break diamonds. It wasn't your place to tell Siebren what was best, so you were to keep your mouth shut.

"I would love to," Siebren pitched in. "But, I would really love to catch up with y/n here!" He smiled at you, placing a kiss onto your knuckles.

"Fine," Moira said, putting down a syringe, looking very upset. "You may 'catch up' but I want you back in no less than 20 minutes, do you understand?"

Siebren beamed and grabbed your hand, rushing out of the room. "Thank goodness we got out of that one for a little while, y/n. I'm very tired."

"Is Moira treating you well?" You blurt out. He looked exhausted and much thinner than you remember.

"She's alright, but this isn't about her, right now, this is about us!" He sat you both down right as the sun was setting.

You frowned and grabbed his hand. "Siebren, you mean a lot to me. I don't want to see you hurting."

"Oh, I'm fine, y/n, don't get all hung up on me, now."

You couldn't help it. You must've really missed him.

"How are the new abilities treating you?" You quickly changed the subject.

"They're great!! Though I can't get this damned song out of my head." He looked at nothing, his mind leaving for a little while before his attention turned to you.

"What about you? How's life been treating you, y/n?"

"It's been alright..." you admitted, twiddling your thumbs while watching the sunset. "I just miss my old job, that's all." You looked at Siebren and immediately got butterflies in your stomach.

"Is that so," he giggled, pushing a chunk of hair behind your ear. "I miss my old assistant."

You knew you were blushing, but you really couldn't help it. "Siebren, do you think things will be the same ever again?"

"No." He decided to be honest. How could they when he literally had the power to control gravity and the fear that he could lose his entire mind in a moment. "I don't think they will. I'm sorry if you wanted a different answer."

"That's alright," you sighed, staring at the sky. "At least your honest."

"Well, think of it this way, y/n: this gives us an opportunity to start a new life and have new fun experiences. We don't have to be doctor and assistant anymore, we can be something entirely new."

You nodded, feeling your face go warm again. "I like that."

"Me too." Siebren scooted closer to you, his hand landing on yours.

You turned to him and he did the same with a bright smile on his face. "It's so good to see you again, y/n."

"It's so good to see you again."

Siebren cupped your face and you leaned into it. His hands were cold, but strangely warm at the same time. He pulled you closer by wrapping his arms around your waist and leaning you down, your arms going around the back of his neck.

"I think I'm falling in love with you, y/n."

"Think?" You giggled, pulling him in for a kiss. His lips were so soft and you didn't want to let him go. You pulled him closer, cupping both sides of his face and he smiled into the kiss. When you pulled away, there was a bright smile on Siebren's face.

"Nevermind. I know." He giggled and you both jumped, hearing Moira's voice.

"I guess we'll start with a test of your serotonin and dopamine levels then, doctor."

"astarion is a traumatized abuse victim who deserves kindness" and "astarion is a mean rat bastard man who would rip out your throat for a corn chip if he felt like it" are two statements that can and should coexist

#the duality of vampire #i love our vampling as much as the next person #but fundamentally he's a bitchy self serving little gremlin and that facet of his character should be explored more #it's fun when he cries AND when he's evil okay i can have both #astarion #astarion ancunin #bg3 #baldur's gate 3

things to think about for characters

do they have allergies?

what foods will they not touch?

what kinds of music do they like?

how are they around new people?

do they speak in an accent?

have they tried learning a new language?

how many languages do they know?

what is a song that will always make them cry?

how do they cry? heaving? silently? sobbing?

how do they dress? for practicality or fashion?

what is the first thing they notice about a stranger?

what is their humour like?

do they have scars? what caused them?

do they wear jewelry?

are they a frivolous spender or a miser?

do they prefer luxury or practicality?

who would they quote?

what could make them change their mind?

who is the first person they'd call?

how are they around animals? do they have pets?

what is their favourite childhood food?

what is something they've never told anyone?

childhood friends?

what are habits they've picked up from other people?

what are their guilty pleasures?

what is something they're staunchly against?

do they speak a certain way? do they use contractions? popular turns of phrase?

can they fall in love? what does it look like? does it differ between people -- friends vs family?

what would they rather die than do?

what is their biggest mistake? one that they look out to never do again.

24 hour time loops: not long enough to create or undo anything permanent, crazy-making but often still funny

365 day time loops: the most fucked up shit you could possibly imagine

#the lazarus project #every time I go to rewatch tlp I get stuck on ep 3 because. yeah. but I am pushing through!!!! #much like Janet did one could say (sorry) #disabling reblog because you guys are just independently arriving at ideas for messed up pregnancy scenarios #which is is what this post was originally about - because this post was about the lazarus project and this very thing just not as outright #and it's great to see people get so creative coming up with this stuff independently but also it's just unoriginal and therefore annoying #to me as the person whose notes are being flooded. love and light ❤️

[coldasyou]

maybe I am just sentimental and easily impressed but tbh I disagree with the whole “yes local theater is almost always bad but it’s still important” thing bc I think a lot of local and amateur theater is really good actually! like yes I also agree that it’s important to support local arts no matter what the quality so I don’t think it’s necessarily a bad message but I also think if we really want people to go out and support community theater it’s also important to remember that there is a lot of talent outside of broadway or major touring productions so yeah going to see community productions is not something I feel I need to begrudgingly do just out of principle it’s something I genuinely enjoy.  

#even school productions which probably get the most shit can be great imo #sorry i know it's easy to dunk on these kind of shows but i think it's wrong! #anyway this is long but basically i love theater <3 #personal

My favorite part about the Debling plot was Penelope and Cressida doing the most over there top cat-fighting in order to win him over, not because they genuinely liked the guy, but because they wanted to escape their families and also lowkey just hate each other.

#the female experience that is… doing things out of spite #also if you ask me the actual love triangle this season is pen/eloise/cressida which I LOVE #toxic yuri let’s go! #don’t know why everyone was so salty abt debling bc me personally #i was enjoying the hell out penelope bulshitting her love of nature just to one-up cressida #and completely ignoring that colin was PINING right beside her #not out of cruelty she’s just that dumb <3 #all this time i thought pen was going after debling for petty reasons related to her mother #but turns out she was also going after debling for petty reasons related to cressida LOVE IT #penelope featherington #cressida cowper #lord debling #bridgerton #bridgerton spoilers #bridgerton season 3
