lee minhyuk. terrascape cybersecurity officer. penned by ares (21+, s/h, gmt)

aye what's good y'all, i'm back with a THIRD muse (who do i think i am?) i bring you minhyuk, serving both good cop and bad cop tea. with all that's been happening with anon nowadays he's working extra hard to crack down on any further disturbances. without further adieu, if you liked what you've read below, hit this with a like and i'll grace your dms with some plotting energy. ciao!

FORTUNE FAVOURS THE BOLD

humble beginnings, they foster the most keen of officers. minhyuk hails from a working class family who live in the belt. his parents own a mom and pop noodle shop, which to be honest is more like a stall, but it has a decent patronage and in the summers there's outdoor seating where people can dine upon plastic dining sets.

he has two sisters, one older and one younger. he'd tell you that growing up, they were happy, they worked hard and they never got their hands dirty. but the day to day was set in stone and minhyuk wanting something more than what the belt had to offer, applied for a cybersecurity scholarship program when he finished school.

he'd never been the authoritarian type, honestly. he was the type to live and let live, to take the good, the bad and the ugly as it was (whether that be with judgment or not) but the training was fun and the food was free and it beat working in the noodle shop. there was a promise of being able to secure security housing in the megabuildings and he could tell you first hand that that certainly sweetened the deal.

he graduates, he gets his little flat and life is good. to be honest the work wasn't too hard. terrascape was a utopia after all. but then he meets a woman; another officer at his precinct and he thinks that one day he'll marry her.

things go well and he throws around the idea of marriage, of settling down with someone who gets him and gets the nature of his job. the only trouble is he quickly finds that he doesn't know her at all. as time passes by, she tries to indoctrinate him. challenges him on his fealty to terrascape, asks him if he truly believes all is as it seems.

love is blind as it is ugly and when things between them come to a head, she asks him to make his decision. he's either with her or with them. and minhyuk tries! oh does he try. he tries to appeal to her better nature. it's okay to believe in something but this is the way of their world. why not channel it into making change in a positive way? when he looks back on those last moments with her, he tosses around the idea of being a coward.

ultimately she betrays him and goes rogue. and the next time he hears anything about her is when her name is flagged as a suspect for anonymous activity. he'll never admit that this is why he can't stand dissenters, he won't say it's because of his love for things that will never love him back, not in the way he wants them to.

all in all, he believes that terrascape isn't perfect but what system is? you either conform or unplug and if you want to make change, then do it the right way. otherwise it's him that'll come knocking, and you wouldn't want that, would you?

PERSONALITY

scorpio sun, virgo moon, gemini rising (yikes)

on the clock, he's all about finding his man. he loves a good case, you can say it gives him a bit of purpose. things have been awfully quiet but with the new developments, it's like he's been born again.

plays good cop and bad cop depending on the situation, likes to think he gets more information being pleasant though.

deals mostly with facts, not so heavy on the rhetoric.

off the clock, he's cool and generally a great guy to be around. plugs' a little weird but he's chill.

generally doesn't like people in his home, considers it his home base but doesn't mind hitting people up at theirs

tries to visit home as much as possible to see his parents, doesn't really date much (swears he's married to the job)

PLOTS

i'm open to everything and anything but just a couple of ideas: anon members (or adjacent) who he's been investigating and just won't quit. i want all the sneaky mfers who have ever said anything bad about terra publicly to STAND UP. people who have grown in the belt (friend or foe) or neighbours who dwell in the megabuildings. fwbs/flings/people who have hoped to pin him down? other cybersecurity officers or people he went to the academy with?
