the ev thing is actually so fucking sad
she coulve had a normal life until a natural death if it werent for the house fire? what are they even studying her for??? :(
maybe :´)
now that you put it like that huh. thats true isnt it. ev's link Osiris doesn't really work doing things like normal self-regeneration (what a sentence) and just reboots her anytime she dies, so it's not like anyone would've noticed it if she didn't get caught in a lethal accident like that. theyre just a normal link-less person up until the point something makes their heart stop and then they're back to a "blank slate". it was pretty unlucky to die there wasnt it. what are the chances
for the second question i am going to be honest with you ❤ i don't actually have a very clear idea im just torturing her in The Whump Lab because. there are some more specific concepts i'm playing with, though (like A. eliah's research on magic* energy and how it works- magic is still a fairly new thing in this setting so they're still figuring it out- and consequentially B. the fact that maybe when ev dies and comes back their body liberates some of that fun funky energy like when (bad analogy incoming) you split an atom. excuse to kill ev more than we already do but still) but it's quite vague </3 probably something like unethical testing they can't actually do on other subjects without risking their lives and stuff. thinking ev might get 'borrowed' to sufficiently-trusty entities eliah can verify and is willing to lend a favor to, in order to be used to aid their own research. whatever you do you can just "reboot" her anyway, so it's not like there's a big deal if you "damage her too bad". yikes. anyways despite that eliah can still be pretty protective and the vetoing process when someone requests it is still pretty extensive so it's not a thing that happens that often
(*not called magic in this setting but you get it)
