please tell me about your ocs
Fkdjdjsls THANK YOU, ANON.
Well it might be too much information to fit in a 2am post so I'll pick one for now:
Dr. Nathaniel C. Thorne (a.k.a. The Botanist):
It all started with this idea I had while walking though the IKEA plant isle:
Charming fellow and mad scientist obsessed with implementing plant characteristics into the human body.
His main field is botany but he's also a doctor in medicine and chemistry. Victorian era gifted child with free time and money to invest in an education.
Most of his interest focuses on carnivorous and poisonous plants, but he also has a soft spot for all kind of flowers, particularly roses, narcissus and pansies.
He's a passionate scientist with a brilliant mind and no regards for moral judgment, easygoing, sarcastic yet charming and driven by curiosity and a mentality of “fuck around and find out” when it comes to questionable experiments (i.e. he might break the laws of nature just to find out if he can). And well, hear me out, what if trying to grow chlorophyll in our bodies as a new source of energy? And if that works, why not grow something else? This might not actually be the most scientifically sound hypothesis, but as a friend pointed out "it’s nothing a little radical experimentation won’t fix". I guess he just didn't expect one of the side effects to be "the plants can talk to you in return".
His experiments with his flowers and the co-dependent relationship he subsequently develops with them lead him to his downfall and inevitable descent into madness, practically condemning him to a reclusive confinement in his laboratory (greenhouse), only to have his mind twisted by the demands and desires of the now dangerously aware plants growing on him.
He's also been featured a couple times on my NSFW twitter account but... We'll see if those get posted here. 👁️
Till then... Hope this satisfied some curiosity! 🌹
