Hiya can you. Drop lore. Of your AU Gene. Fun facts or anything idc i just need content of him. Pleaseeeew
of course! i’ll share some pretty basic things about him in my au
hes an expert in all scientific fields, hacking, building machines, and medicine (hes a doctor/surgeon). he works for the FBI (IT specialist and special agent). actually all of the agents in Technopolis work for the FBI, lead by Dr. X, and who is his adoptive father. he’s from the 2100s, the future, where the oxygen and pollution on the Earth has caused many animals, plants and people to die. so, most of the remaining people on Earth became scientists to see if they can reverse the damage. the lead cause of death for Technopolians is lung cancer.
his skin is full of acne and extremely rough due to leaving technopolis/nyc, his body isn’t really used to actual food or good, healthy oxygen. and he also tends to overwork himself which is why he looks so unkempt. Alex has to help him shave, bathe and sleep because he goes weeks without it.
he’s nonbinary (he/they/it) and aroace/gay. doesnt have a good experience with women specifically because they make him uncomfortable, especially during his childhood, where he’d get used for his expertise by nearly everyone growing up, and never had a real friend until way later on. which is why he built Lenny.
he has robotic arms, holographic wrist cuffs and a robotic eye. i thought the holographic wrist cuffs were a better alternative to his holopad. though, his holopad was an early version of it he created when he was younger. he did these adjustments to himself so he can scan things with his eye (and shoot a laser out of it!), and his arms are robotic so he could perform surgery or build machines more precisely and efficiently.
his love interest is Alex. as a schizoid and autistic person, he has issues caring about others or developing the desire to want to be near other people due to his childhood. but once Alex came along, he helped him get more comfortable. though, Gene still has issues expressing his emotions and often says things that offend his friends or allies.
he sleeps for 30 minutes whenever hes too tired to function, then gets right back to working. he sees sleep as something that takes up precious time, and often drinks any source of caffeine to stay awake. he even attempted brain surgery on HIMSELF to see if he could find a way to alter his brain to stay awake for longer. which… didnt work.
his robotic arms can turn into guns, and if they break, he has a backup laser gun, a taser, a knife and his rocket shoes.
i cant really think of anything else so, thats it for now!
