had this idea woke up in the middle of the night... am I cooking
Pre expansion/ Human Al-an AU
A biologist in an age where all things biological on Earth were well documented, Robin Ayou had only one financially strapped startup to her name. When her sister Sam Ayou goes missing under the watch of the shady Alterra corporation, Robin doesn’t hesitate and opts to travel alone to a remote coastline in South America to join an already abandoned search effort. There she gets sidelined by a distress signal on her equipment.
An abandoned lab reclaimed slowly by the elements— the last place she expected to find a man trapped in stasis by his own machine. His name is Alan Meyer. The system seemed to keep his body alive. He had no idea how long he’d been trapped, and stranger yet he refused to remove his helmet. He seems to be experiencing some pretty significant amnesia— but by his recounting he was a tech prodigy in his youth. There seems to be things he’s hiding too…
In return for her assistance, Alan offers tech and augmentations that allow her to better search for her missing sister.
AU NOTES:
Robin cares a lot about her health and fitness - and enjoys triathlons.
Despite Alan’s stasis his body is in decent shape, though a bit skinny. He is rather huskily built so it’s hard to tell at a glance, and that combination creates the illusion of fitness.
Robin wears more casual/ semiformal, but frequently changes in to a wetsuit for diving.
Alan’s helmet is able to provide some visual input directly in to his brain, but even this way he is partially blind.
Alan prefers floor length dresses and robes which are pretty common in fashion at this time. It’s Robin who dresses retro.
Alan seems estranged from humanity and does not consider himself part of it. Robin thinks his time trapped in AR fried his brain.
Alan is suspiciously wealthy (for lore reasons)
jungle setting instead of ice for 1) it’s a refresh 2) it’d quickly show the similarities and differences in how both of them approach science and danger
This morning in Motaz's stories he said the IOF have killed all the journalists who had drones so they are no longer able to show the massive scale of destruction as easily as they did before. I don't believe this is accidental especially after watching the day IOF hacked Motaz's drone and took it. Just another fowl attempt to hide the truth from the world.
A few screenshots from his stories today:
If what we can see is already bad, can you imagine what new aerial shots would show? Can you imagine how much we aren't seeing thanks to the continued disruption to internet connection?
Some thoughts about Alastor's mom that me and my friends were brain rotting these days. Also some human kid Alastor too, I can't decide between wavy Alastor or curly Alastor, I think he looks cute with both ;w;
middleeasteye "Jamila al-Hissi, a Palestinian woman who managed to leave Shifa hospital in Gaza told Al Jazeera Arabic that women at the hospital have been subjected to rape, torture, and execution by Israeli forces."
But they're the victims? They're the ones we should sympathize with?
I can not wrap my head around this it's so insane to me how people still sympathize with these things. Fuck Israel.
