With the introduction of Nathalie's father in the latest episode, I decided it was time to finally put my interpretation of him on paper so I can catalog how my perception of him changes. Below are some design notes, backstory, and character study comments. (Warning: it's a lot) Of course, spoiler alert for my fic!

Background:

Victor = reference to Frankenstein

Serdtseva = derived from the word "heart" in Russian

Gave Nathalie “Sancoeur” as a way to distance himself + as a cruel joke

Born circa 1930 in Leningrad to a lower-middle-class family.

Family had connections to the Russian Orthodox Church.

Early Life & Imprisonment:

His early experiences during the Holodomor sparked outrage at the government

Arrested in the late 1940s during the Leningrad Affair while a university student for:

Openly practicing religion in an anti-Orthodox Soviet state.

Expressing interest in banned Western philosophy and literature.

Possible possession of prohibited texts or being reported by a peer.

Sentenced to several years in the Gulag system.

Endures brutal conditions.

Experience deeply affects and distorts his worldview.

Post-Stalin Release & Academic Career:

Released after Stalin’s death in 1953 during the Khrushchev Thaw.

Quietly reinstated into academic life as a professor.

Outwardly reformed; secretly continues dissident activities.

Smuggles and distributes censored literature (e.g., Solzhenitsyn, Western political theory, Orthodox theology).

Involvement in Samizdat & Tamizdat:

Participates in Samizdat (underground self-publishing of banned texts):

Used typewriters with carbon paper to make multiple copies.

Circulated materials within academic circles—dorms, staff offices, cultural clubs.

Involved in Tamizdat (smuggling works abroad to be published).

Rise and Fall in Soviet Society:

Gains influence through connections with:

Other Gulag survivors.

Ideologically flexible bureaucrats.

Rehabilitated intellectuals.

Later accused of sexual misconduct involving minors.

Truth unclear; rumors spread in both academic and dissident communities.

Under increased scrutiny, he resigns and vanishes from Soviet public life.

Exile and Life in France:

Possibly uses false claims of Jewish ancestry or religious affiliation to escape.

Refugee channels assisted by HIAS, Amnesty International, or the Catholic Church.

Smuggled out via Austria or Italy; resettled in France.

Reappears in Lille:

Poses as a Soviet defector and intellectual.

Possibly tolerated by French authorities during Cold War for intelligence value.

Lives in exile—brilliant but embittered, haunted by past, with a sense of superiority.

Family & Decline:

Marries a fellow Soviet émigré, also carrying trauma.

Despite poverty and alienation, they have an unplanned child—Nathalie.

Becomes more religious in exile:

Uses faith to rationalize and justify his actions.

Becomes a controlling and abusive husband and father:

Traumatized, egotistical, and morally fractured.

Legacy marked by ideological extremism and deep personal damage.

Can't find proper work at first due to anti-USSR sentiments - first 2 decades in Lille marked by poverty

He works as a tutor

Slowly finds connections again as people recognize his prestige and skill

Works up in status again

His skills land him a spot on the council

Design Notes/Character Study:

Foil to Nathalie, the Duke, and Gabriel

Color scheme inverted from Gabriel’s

Nathalie dresses similarly to him

She looks more like her mother, but she undoubtedly is her father’s pet daughter

He dresses similarly to the Duke (in a darker color scheme)

Yellow tinge to his shirt - reminds viewer of decay and the past

Outfit based on Shostakovich

He likes to be put together:

Wears gloves

Doesn’t like to touch people directly

Touches Nathalie without gloves (views her as subhuman)

However, his past always cracks through

Clothes slightly oversized

Not afraid to get dirty

Clinical and precise

Juxtaposes Gabriel often getting emotional

Using Courier font rather than the usual Wild Words

Military training background in the USSR

Movements are precise and conservative

Gaunt

Muscle atrophy in the gulags

Doesn’t resort to brute force - is clinical and methodical in his violence

Uses leverage and environment to break bones

Learned to be observant

Scar on throat

His refusal to be silenced (contrasting Nathalie)

Dislikes humanity

Wants a better world

Likes cynical literature like Dostoevsky

Irony: completely misses the point of Crime and Punishment (book he is holding)

Blames the world around him

Believes Raskolnikov’s confession was weakness

Similar to Gabriel in that way

In the picture, he is beating up a predator

Irony: he too is a predator

Not out of concern or justice - out of possessiveness

Likes to inflict torture

First, break the legs (break strongest weapons; prevent escape)

Then, then the arms (not able to grab anything)

Final blow between C1-C7 vertebrae (if not dead, you’re quadriplegic for life)

Contrast to Nathalie, who prefers to tie up loose end quickly and cleanly + Gabriel who hasn’t crossed the line of killing

Eyes like "Lucifer" by Franz von Stuck

[tippytaptaps]

More on that Batman Spy x Family AU I was babbling about:

Bruce is a secret agent who knows how to use his good looks and playboy charm to get information but is actually extremely guarded and hasn't let anyone get close to him in years (it's the Trauma). His only concern in life is the mission.

Selina is an infamous cat burglar/jewel thief who was finally caught and offered a role in this scheme in exchange for amnesty. She treats life like a game and is largely out for herself, but has a soft spot for strays.

Dick is a Talon who had to be Turned early (at 13 instead of the usual 20s-30s) because he got in a terrible training accident and would have died otherwise. He's energetic and quick to laugh (often at someone else's expense), but deep down he's pretty self-conscious about feeling "defective" and like he'll never be as good as the other Talons because of it.

From here:

Noem’s Explosive Move Shakes U.S. Immigration to Its Core | RightWing

“At a Glance

Kristi Noem, Trump’s new DHS chief, ends amnesty extension for 600,000 Venezuelan migrants

Move aims to pressure Venezuela for reform and cut off remittances to Maduro regime

Cancellation reverses Mayorkas’ 18-month extension of Temporary Protected Status (TPS)

Decision impacts 2026 midterm elections and signals stricter immigration control

Over one million foreign nationals currently remain in the U.S. due to TPS

Maybe they are part of this human trafficking scheme that flew migrant beggars into US cities, per Brave AI:

“… the Cuban, Haitian, Nicaraguan, and Venezuelan (CHNV) mass-parole program allows up to 30,000 asylum-seekers from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela into the U.S. each month.”

30,000 a month, 360,000 a year, over a million every three years!

I hope the good lady has cancelled this policy already!

Case against Brazil coup plotters could end decades of impunity

he arrest of a four-star general in Brazil over the weekend shows courts are ready to play hardball with those accused of plotting to violently overturn election results, breaking with the impunity that shadowed nearly a century of military coups.

Former Brazilian Defense Minister Walter Braga Netto was arrested on Saturday for allegedly meddling in the investigation of a coup plot organized with former President Jair Bolsonaro, his running mate in the 2022 election.

Last month, federal police accused them and over two dozen active and retired military officers of taking part in the plot, including a scheme to kill President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva before he could take office.

Lawyers for Bolsonaro and Braga Netto deny they took part in the alleged conspiracy or would have benefited from one.

The preventive arrest and police report targeting military brass suggest they may not enjoy the traditional amnesty for members of Brazil's armed forces who punctuated the 20th century with their political interventions.

It may also provide a test for Lula's fraught relationship with the Brazilian military.

[sugarcube-stillabookworm]

been thinking about s4 (insert *cmon do something* @ amazon here) because the brainwot just wont go away and there is. so much stuff. they probably are and/or might be putting in? Like, what i can think of on the spot (heavy book spoilers under the cut):

for Rand, Tear and Callandor, since it's been talked about so much. Presumably, Tear also becomes the location of-

The battle against the Shaido, and therefore-

Mat killing Couladin and forming the Band (hopefully his focus episode); which, will it have a similar set up to the books about him trying to get away from Rand and destiny etc and being reeled deeper in? Because in that case, there would need to be a bit of build up to that too (though some of it can be found in s3)

for Rand in Tear, claiming the Dragon Reborn role, starting to plan future moves against the Shadow and how to unite randland, and learning to rule a country

about the latter, that could also be a place to have Rand + Elayne bonding. Because they also need to build the romantic relationships; will it happen with both Elayne and Aviendha at the same time? If they're together themselves, maybe

tied to Elayne, fighting Rahvin and taking back Andor (maybe)

i forgot before but also, presumably, plots for the rest of the Trakands: maybe not Morgase, but Gawyn and Galad

Second Forsaken enemy: Lanfear still, now fully unhinged, with a bit of conflict to build it up again and then the final final showdown with Moiraine

re: Moiraine, since she survived the season, some further bonding with Rand now that they understand each other and are on the same page. She could step fully into the role of political advisor and teacher (together with Elayne? they offer different perspectives, maybe)

Rand also still needs a teacher. Enter Mazrim Taim, maybe? or is Asmodean stil in the cards lol

presumably, the Rebels in Salidar creating the Little Tower, scheming a bit, and then calling Egwene to raise her as Amyrlin

Third forsaken enemy: Moghedien, now with complimentary Liandrin; no idea what they'll be doing, since they have the male adam it would seem they might to after Rand, but it feels like the big showdown will still happen with Nynaeve. So that too

possibly if unlikely: Logain makes his return (somehow) and does finally become Rand's teacher - either before or after being healed by

Nynaeve discovers how to heal stilling and gentling?? Surely not

who am I missing

Oh Perrin! Whitecloaks trial and related stuff

presumably something about Alanna, also with the cauthor girls (and maybe maksim, as much as i like him, finally goes)

in the White Tower proper, the aftermath of the coup, Elaida descending into chaos and Alviarin pulling the strings

possibly the amnesty for male channelers and the start of the Black Tower?

possibly Rand being kidnapped and Dumai's Wells???

possibly THE SEANCHEAN RETURNING???

something more still??

i'm sure a lot of these things can happen in a lot less time than i can imagine right now and some wont happen anyway. but still. help

give them more episodes prayer circle

[ber3ave]

✶ ◟ king roberon cole welcomes antigone to fabletown—or, as they were once known, antigone from the theban plays. before the magic mirror, they come glamoured in the mirage of a mouth open in prayer that emits no sound, grief being the form of everlasting love, skin being scratched by even the finest of silks, the taste of rotten fruit. the tale from which they hail exalted their + sanguine and + resolute, but decried their - anarchic and - turbulent in equal measure. no matter; this time, they shall write their own. in accordance with the fabletown compact, they are granted amnesty for any and all transgressions, even that which is little known: they were aware of a proposed scheme to dethrone her brother, polynices, and did nothing to stop it, ultimately resulting in his death on the battlefield.

PART #001 : the basics.

full   name.   just antigone   nickname(s).   none, but they wouldn't mind any if they came up, except tiggy   age.   eternally 27 yrs old, 500+ in actuality   birthdate.   redacted   gender.   demi woman  pronouns.   she/her/hers & they/them/theirs   orientation.   unspecified   language(s) spoken.   english, greek occupation. proprietor @ the lucky pawn

PART #002 : the specs.

faceclaim.   courtney eaton   height.   5ft 10in   hair   color.   soft black   eye   color.   brown   scar(s).   horizontal gashes across their palms, a knick at the tail end of her left eyebrow, other random marks littered across their skin   piercing(s).   none   tattoo(s).   none   other   distinct   feature(s).   dark eyebrows that cast shadows upon their undereyes, the faint indentation of smile lines that are rarely etched into, grown out hair that is usually unkempt as if she had just awoken from slumber   style.   a modernized adaptation of what she had worn in decades past characterized by flowing linens and expertly-chosen cotton and wool fibers that hang loose on their silhouette, gold jewelry - notably intaglio glass for pops of color as well as a gold arm band that sits on their upper right arm

PART #003 : the relations.

parent(s) or guardians. oedipus ( deceased ), jocasta ( deceased )

sibling(s) in order. eteocles ( deceased ), polynices ( deceased ), ismene ( alive / estranged )

other(s) of note. a sighthound named despina — her pride & joy

PART #004 : the story.

CONTENT WARNING(S) brief mention of death, talks of grief.

even a silver spoon tarnishes with use. antigone, the youngest of four, raised in a family of governmental pillars — subservient, believing, naive. black sheep would be too much of an understatement to encapsulate their relationship to their family. for most of her life, it felt suffocating to be tethered to such responsibility, and more so the people who held it. if she were close to anyone, it would have been her brother, polynices, always the mediator within such a full house of folks who only knew power. he, too, shared her streak for rebellion, dreaming of greater pastures that surpassed the confines of their kingdom. she initially admired him for that, but admiration soon soured as the days continued and his complacence morphed into, in antigone's eyes, cowardice. a quarrel between hotheaded siblings resulted in a loss of contact, with hallways and corridors feeling like countries in-between. bitter contempt had gotten to her, easily. a gash had severed antigone from their family. pettiness and contempt ruled their heart now, levels of disdain rivaling that of the tensions on mount olympus. battle struck, and so did news of polynices' death, a quick aftershock to the initial tragedy. the worst part : she knew of it all. haughty conversations in alleyways and enclaves she once thought of as secret, brushed off as lofty conspiracy, a welcomed demise under the haze of their anger. but when it happened, a scream with no air. complacence. cowardice. it runs in the family, apparently. if she could not honor him in life, perhaps they could in death. the exodus was a blur — one cave to another, it seems. not much has changed between then and now, but surely the next step is therapy ! the same stubbornness remains their hamartia, though age has done a lot to help soothe the more prickly parts of their personality. anger morphed into exhaustion, with days seeming to drone on and on. the lucky pawn is ample distraction, focusing on others instead of herself — supposed altruism behind a glass counter. but with trouble looming, and no oracles to confide in ( none they believe in, anyway ), their sanity is quickly wearing thin.

My last two members of the Crime Syndicate: The Aresian Barbarian and Sea King:

Aresian Barbarian (J'edd J'arkus): In the anti-matter universe, mars is actually known as ares. All the planets in the solar system (besides earth) have greek names instead of roman names. This means mars is actually ares, and martians are known as aresians. This is a good warning of how cruel the story of J'edd J'arkus is going to be.

On the planet ares, leadership positions are determined via trial by combat. J'edd became king solely because he had no morality. He ripped his own daughter in half to get at the throne. He stabbed the previous king and ate him alive. Name a barbaric practice, and holy emperor j'arkus has probably done it. He killed his wife, let people sexually assault his children (and then killed them), tried to kill his brother (but failed because m'as'nijan j'arkus managed to escape to earth). Emperor J'arkus was a monstrous tyrant.

But then he shot too high. Just like the saturnians on the positive matter earth, j'edd led his aresians in a conquest of the galaxy. But unlike the saturnians, his conflict failed a little bit quicker. He managed to form an alliance with the kronians (inhabitants of kronos/saturn), but an allegiance of every planet in the solar system (besides earth and aphrodite/venus), led to ares being absolutely devastated. 90% of them were wiped out. And the ones that lived (like j'edd) were taken to the planet zeus, there to be tortured by the zanes for all time.

But after many long years of torment at zanian hands, j'edd escaped. He led a violent, bloodthirsty riot (ripping heads off guards and stealing their possessions), and it gave him the perfect smokescreen under which to escape zeus. Knowing ares was now a dead planet (and that no other planet would give him amnesty for his inhumane actions), j'edd flew to earth (the only planet in the solar system he never attempted to invade before).

On earth, j'edd hid himself by using his shapeshifting powers to make himself appear to be "Jebediah Marcus", a humble politician from Washington. Jebediah Marcus became a darling of washington politics, currying favour and earning people's trust, and it was all part of a long con scheme by j'edd to allow himself to take over globe. But before he got that chance, a bunch of filthy supervillians began popping out of the woodwork! Ultraman, Owlman, Superwoman, Sea King! It was enough to drive him mad! This is his planet! His! He had half a nerve to skin them alive and burn them as trophies to his lord ares!

But then J'edd had a better thought. He should infiltrate the ranks of these other villians, and use them to facilitate the founding of an earth based empire. Once he's done that, then he'll betray them and make himself sole ruler of earth! To do this, j'edd lets himself meet with Ultraman. He introduces himself as "The Aresian Barbarian, last of my kind (even though he knows that his brother is hiding from him on earth). He spins a tale of woe, about how he was exiled from his home because he was "too authoritative". And by working his way into ultraman's ear like this, he becomes second in command of the Crime Syndicate.

After the Justice League Canada arrive on the anti-matter earth and thoroughly demoralize the Crime Syndicate, J'edd snaps. He begins secretly plotting to join kronos and quit the Crime Syndicate. And he gets his wish. When Kronos/Saturn begins assembling an army, J'edd is recruited into it's ranks. So with him, Owlman, Power Ring and Johnny Quick gone, the Crime Syndicate membership dwindles down to three.

As for what happens to J'edd: his brother m'as'nijan flees to the positive matter earth and warns the Justice League Canada of Kronos/Saturn's attack. And when it's j'edd's turn to attack the earth, martian manhunter, jemm, son of saturn, ma'alefa'ak and m'as'nijan all confront j'edd. And together, their combined might turns this aresian barbarian into a broken tyrant, to be locked away in a cold, dark dungeon for all time.

Sea King (Alistair Curry): Alistair Curry's father was a brilliant marine biologist, fired for his insane beliefs about creating merfolk through human experimentation. Desperate to prove his theories to the world, he used his young son Alistair as a living test dummy. He did horrible things to his son, all to prove his stupid research theories. For example, he made artificial gills for his son by cutting them into his son's flesh. He also performed some unethical brain surgeries to give his son the ability to telepathically communicate with fish.

Driven absolutely mad by these experiments, alistair eventually snapped and killed his own father. In the proceeding struggle, his father's underwater laboratory blew up, and it led Alistair to lose a hand and the sight in one of his eyes. But with a bloody stump for a right hand and a glassy right eye, alistair swam off to live amongst the fish in the deep ocean.

Eventually, Alistair ran into the kingdom of Atlantis. But this ocean was only big enough for one! He declared a one man war on atlantis, and used his control of the ocean creatures to massacre the entire royal family of atlantis (except for prince orm, who narrowly managed to escape). From here, he became the new king of atlantis, forcing a woman to marry him under threat of death.

Now Alistair is the Sea King, emperor of atlantis and the world's greatest pirate, a champion of the high seas. Anyone who dares to go exploring the oceans of the anti-matter earth has to answer to him, and he's not exactly friendly. Of all the crime syndicate members, he's definitely the most violent and unhinged of the whole lot (followed up narrowly by the Aresian Barbarian).

Imagine this: It’s exactly one year from today, Memorial Day weekend, 2025. It’s 94 degrees in the shade, but the fact that the world keeps shattering monthly temperature records isn’t even making the news — and that’s not what has Philadelphians so hot and bothered. It’s been about two months since Donald Trump, the 47th president of the United States, announced Operation Purify America in an Oval Office address, and about a week since a stunned Philadelphia watched an endless convoy of militarized vehicles and federalized troops from the Texas and South Dakota National Guards roll up I-95. After a week of setting up a base camp at the Air National Guard base in Horsham, the actual operation began at midnight the day before, as a parade of Humvees and armored personal carriers cornered off a wide area in Philadelphia’s Hunting Park section and supported federal immigration agents who went door-to-door in the predawn chaos, bursting into homes and asking Latino residents for their papers. Journalists who’d been kept blocks away by the troops now search for anyone who could confirm the rumors of screaming, scuffling, and dozens of arrests. As the hot sun rises, Mayor Cherelle L. Parker, Gov. Josh Shapiro, and several hundred angry protesters gather outside the Horsham gate to denounce the raids. A phalanx of helmeted troops pushes the throng back, firing tear gas to clear the road for the first busload of detained migrants. They are bound for the hastily erected Camp Liberty, an already overcrowded and decrepit holding center on the Texas-Mexico border that Amnesty International calls “a concentration camp.” This might sound like a page from the script of Alex Garland’s next near-future dystopian movie, but it’s actually a realistic preview of the America Trump himself, his cartoonishly sinister immigration guru Stephen Miller, and the right-wing functionaries crafting the 900-page blueprint for a Trump 47 presidency called Project 2025 are fervently wishing for. As polls show Trump in a dead heat nationally with President Joe Biden, and poised to win at least some of the battleground states where Biden was victorious in 2020, the presumptive GOP nominee is making no secret of his scheme for what he calls “the Largest Domestic Deportation Operation in History.” The audacious goal of tracking down and deporting all 11 million or so undocumented immigrants living and working within the United States is, experts agree, all but impossible. But even the forced removal of hundreds of thousands, or one million, would require a massive internal military operation on a scale not seen since the Civil War and Reconstruction. [...] What’s changed in 2024? Everything. Despite the Hannibal Lecter-ized outward chaos of Trump’s rallies, behind the scenes, Team Trump is focused and determined not only to name the most rabid Trump loyalists to key political posts but also todramatically strip civil service protections andremove recalcitrant midlevel government employees. And this time around, Republicans in Congress are going to be on board with whatever Trump wants. [...] It was somewhat amazing to watch the furious debate online and on cable news this week over the weird incident in which small text about a “unified Reich” found its way into a Trump promo video the ex-and-wannabe president posted on Truth Social. The perplexing part, for me, is that this was discussed as some kind of Sherlock-Holmes-magnifying-glass a-ha moment, revealing Trump’s secret plan for Nazi-style rule. Folks, he is screaming his plan out loud at his rallies! The Trump deportation scheme is really Trump’s blueprint for dictatorship.

Will Bunch at The Philadelphia Inquirer on how Donald Trump's proposed deportation plan is a pretext for a fascist MAGA dictatorship (05.23.2024).

Will Bunch nails it in this Philly Inquirer column on how Donald Trump's fascistic plan for mass deportations is a speed-run for a MAGA dictatorship.
