“Um..” Looking down at her arm, she had peeled off her uniform shirt, still sporting the tank she always used underneath after being practically pushed to be seen. She didn’t think she needed to be at the hospital one bit but the other paramedic she had been on shift with who was also her friend had left her behind claiming she wouldn’t come pick her back up until she was checked out. She didn’t believe them at first but when she went out to find them they were gone. “Someone got a little more aggressive than they needed to be.” She frowned a little as she raised her right arm up, a small gash on the side of it. She thought she had calmed them down but apparently not enough. It wasn’t uncommon to get banged around on the job, she was more than use to it but it was upsetting. Not because she got hurt but because she felt those who lashed out the most always seemed so lost. It was usually drugs but that didn’t make a difference to her.

“I was just going to use glue I have at home.” Obviously not elmer’s glue but it made her want to laugh a little at how childish the thought was but she kept her composure. “but my partner kind of left me here until I had it stitched up.” It was the end of her shift, the only reason they were messing with her in such a form. “Anyway think you can just stitch me up real quick? It doesn’t have to be pretty, I don’t mind scars.”

“Why go for glue if you work in a hospital, lady?” It was unfortunate how dangerous their jobs could be. Vera didn’t know Natalia all that well, all she only knew she was a paramedic there, but she didn’t believe the other did anything to deserve that. The nurse clicked her tongue an proceeded to the drawer getting herself a new pair of latex gloves. Vera was naturally kind, even though the patients (or in the case co-workers) had been careless, willing to leave fast rather then let her do her job calmly.

“Well, lucky for you I’m like a pro in stitching up. Got to practice it a lot working here.” she smiled at the lady and came closer to her holding a tray with all the tools she would need. She first look over her arm, analysing the damage. “Unless you do want to have a scar, then I can try to give you something cool.”

Hopefully, the paramedic wouldn't mind the joke. Vera prepared the needle and the surgical suture with precision. Her hands were steady and precise. She wasn’t lying when she said she had got a lot of practice on this.

“Ready?’

Vera’s shift was finally over. That had been a particular crazy night at the hospital; knife wounds, broken legs, people who claimed to have been hit by cars but looked more like they had been under some sort of crazy form of torture. This gang war would eventually get everyone on that city killed.But this was not her problem anymore, not until her next shift. She let her hair loose as she was walking down the aisle. She was heading to the changing room when one of the other nurses tapped on her shoulder. Her work mate explained the patient at room 5 has been waiting for almost thirty minutes, but their hands were full and they hadn’t had the chance to see them. Obviously what they wanted was for Vera to go and do their job. The lady tried to explain that her shift was over, and she had even clocked out, but before she could say anything, her peer had rushed to see another patient.

Vera scoffed unhappily. She was tired, all she needed now was a shower and twelve hours asleep, but at the same time she could not let someone in need unassisted. She proceeded to emergency ward once again and looked for the patient the other nurse refereed to. She tied her hair up once again, hoping this would not take long.

Room five, Vera had fount it, but when she looked for the medical record she didn’t see it anywhere. Well, that was understandable, since the hospital had been awfully crowded. Yet, the sooner the patient was treated the sooner she would go home. Vera looked at them and an expression of surprised took over her washed face.

“Wow, what happened to you?”

That was one of those nights where Kim was in control. She felt it had been an eternity since she last saw the light of the moon and she would love to make the best out of it. A Halloween party wasn’t exactly her cup of tea, but she would take anything in order to live a little. She wasn’t even surprised while noticing that Esperanza was one of the dances on the pole that night, the two of them had shared the stages a couple of times, and Kim always loved it, Ese seemed like the full of life person you’d have want around. Kim decided to wait until the end, while maybe she could find somewhere else to have some fun, she would be glad to talk Esperanza once more.

She was sting by the counter when she finally arrived. Kim ordered her a shot, hoping she would please vodka as much as she did. She probably didn’t recognise them straight away. It had been a few year (maybe) since they last saw each other. 

“I just thought after all this work you could use a drink” Kim joked taking her own shot and slowing it herself. “A serpent should never drink alone.”

ese had just gotten off her shift as a spooky haunted house go go dancer , she was still in her slutty wonder woman costume as she stood at the bar inspecting the shot bought for her. after a moments hesitation she picked it up and threw it back before wrinkling her nose , fixing the other with a displeased look as she swallowed it , “ god , what was that ? trying to kill me ? did one of these bitches hire you to fuck me up and make me break an ankle ? “ she teased with a smirk as she flicked the empty shot glass towards them.

HISTORY / BACKSTORY

Born in Sunset City, Vera had a very traumatic childhood. Her mother died while she was still young. Her was a drunk piece of garbage who abused her. 

She doesn’t exactly remember when she started having episodes of lapses. All she knows was that sometimes she was washing laundry, and suddenly she would be taking a shower, her skin full of bruises. Not sure how she’d got there, how much time had passed, or what she had done in between. Eventually she got a letter from her other self. Someone living inside her, sharing the same body. She was being protected from her father by this person, who she kindly named Kimberly Black (or Kim for short).

One day Vera woke up to smell of smoke. Their home was on fire, she managed to escape but her father perished in the fire. No tear were shed for him. On the back of her mind, Vera asked herself if it wasn’t Kim who put the house on fire. Little did she know that Kim wondered if this was Vera’s planning.

They were sixteen when they ran away from one of their foster family’s home. No one really wanted her around. Calling her crazy. She was taken in by the Serpents, where she found a new home.

They dreamed about becoming someone in that crazy mess their lives were. Vera wanted to be a nurse, and Kim compromised herself to make sure she would get the money she needed for college. Kim would seduce man in exchange of money. Even though she despised them. They were all too much like their father. She did enjoy the gifts and the booze they brought, though.

One day things got out of hand with a client, Kim was in control when suddenly she just snapped. When she regained conscious, she found the body of that man burned to death. She knew Vera would never have the guts to do that, so it came to light that there was another alter, one who had most likely killed that man, and their father. The sisters from the brothel helped to cover everything up, and no one ever mentioned it again.

They finally were able to leave this all behind for a while, while they attended to collage. Vera finally became a nurse.

While in the past Vera and Kim would feel comfortable sharing the body, after Vera got a job in a hospital, Kim started to feel Vera was taking control over her, and felt somehow useless. When she is in control she tries to enjoy everything as much as she can. She attends to parties and take shots. Vera, on the other hand, is starting to get angry on how much their body feels bad after those crazy nights. 

CONNECTIONS / WANTED CONNECTIONS

Brothel Sister/Mentor: Vera and Kim lived a great part of their lives in a brothel. It would be great to have someone who knows their secrets and accept them for who they are.

An impossible romance: someone who either Vera or Kim felt in love with in some point of their lives but they couldn't be together for their other half would not be happy with it, so they had to let it go. (While Vera is bisexual, Kim is a lesbian, keep this in mind if you would like to fulfil this connection).

A former client: someone who knows Kim’s past in the brothel in far too many details. Maybe use this as leverage, or just stalk them.

Kim’s Parabatai Pairing: Kim was the one in control when they decided to join the Serpents, so this should be someone rather special to Kim while Vera probably fear their ‘bad influence’.
