VVER-440 — that one quiet granddad

Field notes on him:

The first one to reach beyond the Arctic Circle (Kola NPP)

Very good friend of RBMK-1000

Calm, attentive, responsible — though with age, he may doze off at the control panel

Has been through so many upgrades, there’s hardly a single untouched spot on his body

Occasionally sips boric acid and, quite unexpectedly, slips into subcriticality… has to be brought back carefully

Doesn't tell jokes, but he remembers every story. And he'll answer your dumbest question like it deserves a diploma

Sometimes reminisces about Paks and grumbles about how much warmer it is there than in Polyarnye Zori. Carries a thermos from Hungary everywhere

Smiles often, but never on shift. On shift, he tends to be almost too serious

Yes, he looks tired. That's because he is

and i almost forgor that one silly chibi vver-440 is inspired by the last pic from this post

The disaster, the observer, the investigator — CURIOUS-2004!

Field Notes on her:

Her arrival always triggers INES-level events.

Runs around the facility yelling bizarre questions, derailing workflows and provoking incidents.

Was once seen chasing MKER (Multi-Loop Channel-type Energy Reactor) down the hall screaming “LET ME COUNT THE LOOPS! LET ME COUNT THE LOOPS!!”

Wears a rubber seal ring (GOST 9833-73) on her wrist — stolen from a pump shaft “because it looked cute.” Engineering staff is still trying to locate the missing part. Nobody dares ask her to return it.

VVER-440 is the only one who tolerates her. And CANDU, sometimes.

Once sent out party invites “in honor of AP-1000,” locked everyone in the auditorium, and delivered an unhinged slideshow on “WHY Y'ALL SUCK” while the projector made worrying noises.

a pretty enjoyable girlie, isn't she though? more of her and THE REACTORS will appear soon — IN THIS BLOG! :3
