erika is trying
a silly lil idea i had this morning. idea was erika having social anxiety / a boomer moment with the dread not angel kids.
BECAUSE SHE'S A MOOD! like, i've been having a lot of social anxiety as of late. not even real life anxiety, it's online social anxiety! XDDD not to invalidate people (or myself) but because online bonds are both more accessible and ethereal, my gut feeling is to view this even happening in the first place as SILLY :') i feel like i've said a few things lately without complete awareness or good sense that the things i've said are in a particular social context/culture now than what i'm living in... and also, i think the one i am living in is outdated.
someone once mentioned this year on a discord server that once you're out of the loop, you become that "old person who doesn't get anything." i find that a bit scary. i don't want to be so tuned into everything--i can't handle it--but as much as i want to be a punk, i know i desperately want to belong somewhere. i want to be a part of the circle. i want to be seen and loved as a human.
i... i think it's telling how so many of my OCs, old and new, have this desire in the center of their soul. annika, navi, rafa, and now erika & undine...

wesker is decidedly Not Normal but neither is judas exactly. wesker greets him literally everywhere except using the front door (he used it Exactly Once.)
judas will be in the middle of getting ready for bed or just waking up and hearing a knock at their window. so they check it out thinking oh, maybe like a stick hit it or something. nope! wesker's standing on their balcony leaning against the wall drinking the strongest coffee known to man
judas is *always* wearing a mask and sunglasses so nobody knows what they look like underneath all their clothes and techwear. and wesker admittedly is Pretty Curious. yknow hes always got his sunglasses on too but his face is pretty well known.
at first wesker was probably trying to play a long con to get judas under his wing and use him for t-virus experimentation, but somewhere along the way he genuinely fell for judas, but its very one-sided. wesker still thinks he can get judas with his charisma but theyre having None Of It.
at least it was one sided at first until judas eventually does finally let his walls down and allows himself to be a little vulnerable with wesker. and then proceeds to ghost him for weeks. runs off to miami for like a month until coming back and finding wesker knocking at his front door. invites him in for coffee. apologizes to wesker for ghosting him and running off instead of, well, doing the right thing?
judas planned on getting wesker to play into his hand so that he could kill the guy, mainly because he had intel proving what a shitheel wesker is, but while he didnt forget about it, he was just... he doesn't really know when it happened. but he is still incredibly suspicious of the guy and Will kill wesker if he tries to do anything remotely stupid.
