Craigslist contractor hired by Flug in a desperate bid to outsource extra help back in 2016(?). She hit said doctor with her car during a two week bender when he was leaving another unsuccessful BHO hiring event.
She felt pretty bad about that, and impulsively decides to shove his unconscious lanky ass into the back of her crappy little hatchback to get bro patched up properly. Does she let him stay on her couch or something or go to urgent care? No! She does what she can as a nursing school dropout, checks his ID for a place of residence, dumps him on the stoop, and rings the bell before peeling out of the driveway.
Later that week, determined to get her life back on track she was looking at job openings after wrapping up her degree. Clicking on the first Craigslist ad that had the keywords ādoctorā and āassistantā in it, she sent in an application. Lo and behold, her employer was the VERY SAME GUY she ran over days ago. Desperate for a job no matter the cost, she plays it cool all throughout the interview, hoping against hope he doesnāt recognize her. It works! Mainly because Black Hat canonically doesnāt let him use the company website to search for assistance, so poor guy resorted to a vague enough Craigslist ad. But it didnāt matter. After almost a year of no bites, he FINALLY landed someone whoād be a perfect fit.
At least, until he insists on walking her to her car.
Her newly dented, damaged, semi-bloody car.
Before he could even protest or rescind her application, sheās already hopping in the drivers seat and screeching out.
He goes through all five stages of grief in that driveway before realizing heād be seeing a LOT more of her, whether he likes it or not. The more he works with her the more he canāt get enough of this patchy little train wreck. Damn girl, on one hand youāre a hot mess. But on the other hand, you got a LOT of mutations! One or two little traits he might not have taken a second glance, but the more he learns about her during her ātrial periodā, the more he wants to keep her around.
It does get excessive after a while, and Roach begins to passively aggressively take notes on HIM too, to see if HE likes being scrutinized that closely, and will back off a bit. This has the opposite effect. Eventually they have pages and pages full of idiosyncrasies, likes, dislikes, ticks, and tells on the other.
To be loved is to be understood. They grow thick as thieves, and thereās NOTHING out there that could rip them apartā¦
A type B burnout with a tongue as sharp as her eyeliner, a lot of folks who hadnāt already written her off based on appearance would find a reason to bail in that department instead. Her manner of speech vacilitates wildly between eloquent, well spoken vocabulary and a casually dry wit. Sheās the type of person who can notice something is off and deliver a comforting pep talk or dose of wisdom to Flug, only to completely ruin it with an inappropriate joke. Her method of comfort is less in the vein of a listening ear and more in the practical solutions camp, but sheās trying! She can be argumentative and sassy, oftentimes without meaning to and will drag something out until she gets an answer sheās satisfied with.
She is independent to a fault, and regularly reminds Black Hat that because Flug hired her OUTSIDE of the BHO website on his own time and dime, she technically only has to answer to him as an independent contractor. She doesnāt necessarily BREAK rules as much as she exploits loopholes.
However, she does begin to soften up after a while, and if thereās a person or subject she cares about enough, sheāll become far more thoughtful and curious. If sheās not all that interested, then itās pretty obvious, even with her absolutely cooked attention span. She finds it easier sometimes to play dumb to avoid responsibility and high expectations, but the reality is sheās actually pretty brilliant and capable of handling things if she would buckle down more often when shit hits the fan. She can be a little scatterbrained too, couldnāt tell you where she put her keys but will remind you that your nephew has a birthday next weekend.
All things considered sheās pretty open minded due to the treatment she endured growing up, not wanting to judge someone right off the bat until she knows them a little better.
Ophelia Griecco (alias: Roach), is a short, plus sized woman. She clocks in at 154cm tall and 93kg, or exactly 5 feet tall and just over 200 pounds. Due to absorbing her twin brother in the womb she has vitiligo, showing up in lighter colored patches of skin on her face, arms, belly and thighs. Smattering of freckles along her face and shoulders. Thick, curly dark brown hair with white streaks usually seen in a half pony. Heterochromatic eyes with thick, curly dark lashes: right is green, left is hazel. Has a mutation that gives her a supernumerary row of lashes, making them appear even fuller. Occasionally seen in tortiseshell glasses when she can be bothered to wear them. Gap in her front teeth, and has all 4 wisdom teeth grown in and intact.
DIY projects and collecting hobbies
Collecting little trinkets (she lived in her car for a while, so she didnāt own much!)
Mangoes- doesnāt trust the texture
Rosewater- an ingredient in Miss Heedās perfume that she is HIGHLY allergic to
Small talk. Either tell her what billionaire youād eat on an island first or leave her alone.
Invasion of personal space
Mocking jokes about her appearance
Needles (at least when theyāre used on her!)
Her ex-husband is one of her best friends to this day, they only got hitched in college for the housing benefits.
If I had a nickel for every time sheās been considered āclinically deadā, Iād have two nickels. Which isnāt a lot, but itās weird that it happened twice.
Is an organ donor with a universal blood type, but whether or not her insides are even viable for most humans to receive is up for debate.
Flug is the first one to stop calling her Roach and use the shortened nickname āOpieā. Only her ex husband, his new boyfriend, and her estranged dad have used this.
Cyberbullies Miss Heed in her spare time, making account after account.
Despite her devil-may-care attitude, she was actually a straight A student. She only crashed out after she graduated.
Very heavily autistic coded, I donāt make neurotypical OCs in this damn house
