status: newcomer || 6' . he/him . 32 . game dev . Fairweather Hotel . ISTJ
❗currently in: New York, since Jan 7th
Zach Lockmoore is just visiting his brother, but don't miss him when he's gone. He probably won't even remember your name. He's always been a loner, but these days it's hard to spot him without his wife, six-year-old twins, and dog, and even though he shares a face with his famous brother, you won't get them mixed up, thanks to Zach's blue mane. Avid gamers might recognize him as one of the guys who have given the world a nightmare-inducing first-person psychological survival horror series. Whether they'll thank him for it is another thing.
Zach only feels comfortable around his people; he’s intelligent and observant, but also rather grumpy and stubborn. He's autistic, diagnosed as an adult since some autistic traits had managed to pass under the radar for years.
BIO & BASICS
CONNECTIONS & NPCs
THINGS YOUR MUSE WILL NOTICE ABOUT MINE ↓
⸻ WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE :
He's 6 feet tall.
He's probably listening to music to block out the noises.
Electric blue hair pulled into a half-up bun or ponytail. Shoulder-length, wavy/curly.
He's got a motherboard full sleeve (left arm + neck) and an easel on the right bicep, both done by his wife. @thexcarrollxtimes
A diamond stud earring in his right ear or a silver hoop. He usually has a few colorful bracelets on one arm and leather/metal ones on the other.
A neon lime Fila x Ackermann jacket, vibrant/very neutral hoodies. Some merch t-shirts and light blue jeans or sweatpants.
Sneakers! Adidas Attitude HI or Reebok BB 4600.
⸻ WHAT THEY SMELL LIKE :
Bayleaf, rosemary, and black currant. Shower gel. Hair dye when his hair is freshly done.
⸻ WHAT THEY TASTE LIKE :
Skin - salty & cologne tart. Kisses - coffee or something spicy, because he loves spicy snacks.
⸻ WHAT THEY SOUND LIKE
He half-whispers everything with his trademark deadpan expression.
Doesn’t raise his voice unless his emotions grow too strong and/or he’s on the verge of losing his patience & it takes a lot to make Zach lose his temper.
Usually, his laughter is barely a chuckle. Just like his smiles are not much more than a subtle quirk of the corners of his mouth, or they simply don’t last long (which is also why it can be difficult to tell if he’s joking or not; 8/10 he’s not)
He has a good singing voice, but you won’t hear Zach show it off on some karaoke night. You might hear him hum, though, especially when he’s working. The 80s are back, baby.
⸻ WHAT THEY FEEL LIKE :
He doesn't like unprompted touch (or being touched in general by most), so he'll flinch or tense up.
Fit and athletic (parkour, freerunning) - easy to tell without even touching him.
His touch feels mostly soothing and gentle, but it can be powerful or surprisingly confident if he's comfortable around someone.

🧠 - Autumn's donations to Zach's 'game people' remains a quarterly one. She doesn't say anything about it to either twin, and it comes from 'The Manchester' foundation.
Send 🧠 and a headcanon you have about my muse
@autumnonheels
//it's cute until you think that maybe she simply wants him to keep scar(r)ing people... which Zach loves even more lmao
Emily pampers Zach while he's deep into coding a new project. She will fix him/pick up his favorite foods. She plays with his hair, practicing her braiding especially fun for her. She occupies the kiddos by taking them out for daytrips when quiet, alone time is needed for the more pressing bits. Anything he needs, she delivers. On the condition that she gets first dibs testing it.

//EMILY. YOU'RE AN ANGEL. I hope he deserves her and all that special treatment🥹 of course, he appreciates everything she does for him, but he better pay back just as generously 🥺 ok, we know the answer is yes

Emily was making a few last-minute adjustments on her end when Zach spoke. She glanced over at him, then at his background, and let out a soft laugh. “Zach, it’s fine. I already told the Emu Fam this was going to be a more mature stream, so definitely not family-friendly tonight.” She was usually known as a cozy streamer, but every now and then she liked to mix things up—scarier games, slightly more chaotic vibes, a little less filtered than usual. This was one of those nights. She smiled reassuringly, tilting her head. “Why are you so nervous? We’re literally just playing games together. Yeah, there’s an audience, but it’s not that different from uploading to YouTube. They’re just… watching live instead of later.”
Zach took a deep breath, holding back a smile; it was so nice of her to reassure him that everything was under control and he shouldn't stress so much. When he looked to the left, he saw everything his camera captured, then he had Emily and the live chat to the right, and in the center, the biggest screen had been reserved for the game. For maximum comfort, he had dragged his chair from another part of the office... and he still was nervous?
"Yeah, and it's a lot like a premiere for me, you know? A sneak peek into what'll be out there in a few... In a week?" This was so personal because the whole co-op mode was Zach's idea. "Bugs are not fucking welcome..." He forced a chuckle and looked at Emily. "Fine... Stealing some of that chill energy from ya... Ready?" Clearly, depends on who you ask...
Lilith leaned into the quick hug briefly, kissing the air above his cheek. "I told you, I wasn't shopping... this doesn't count," she lifted her bag. "These are gifts!" And in her book, shopping for gifts and shopping for herself, were two separate categories. Of course, some of these items in the bag were for herself, but obviously, the gifts took precedence.
"You know, you keep taking its name in vain like that, and you're going to jinx yourself to an entire life of unlucky and unfortunate events," Lilith warned him, notching her chin up. "Astrology and spirituality are real things, okay, and so is karma! Whatever you put out in this world, will come back on you... So, tread.. carefully," she poked him in the arm as she said this.
Was he far too comfortable with her reasoning after years of hearing these and alike, or did her explanation actually make sense? Zach furrowed his brows, trying to answer that in his head, before they fell into the bottomless pit of spirituality versus his empirical, data-driven brain that refused to admit any of that could be a part of his world.
Then again, he did believe in something like karma, so...
"Okay, there literally is a grammatically correct sentence in English: shopping for gifts." Zach laughed. "But I know what you mean, and that part makes sense so I'll just..." He reached up to his mouth and made a whole "locking the lock and throwing the key away" gesture.
"Are you threatening me...! Fine, I'm not saying anything about the abracadabra stuff." He paused right before the pizza place's door (because Lilith wasn't lying when she said that she was basically there). "Are you my little brother's karma?" He asked and stepped aside as he opened the door for her. "Or maybe his invitation's your unfortunate event," he joked.
ashton: i don't think that's the same as knowing batman's sexual history
ashton: yesss will be back by March for the the continuation of the regular nhl season
ashton: dw i'll just separate each person's bunch into lil gift bags with your names on them like a party bag distribution
ashton: I mean it's hard when you haven't played on the ice with them on the same team before, i've faced a lot of them as an opponent ig, there's a synergy we need to work on as much as we can, but it's certainly a lotta fun. Give us a couple more games, I'm sure we can figure it out, as long as we make it a couple more games 🙉
ashton: how were you doing before your crew then?
ashton: i absolutely will once I'm back home, I miss her sm tbh.
ashton: ha, she'll thank you for training Doom a lil more or she'll train him herself. Dawn just still got the military blood in her veins, not wise for Doom to annoy an old lady veteran
[📲text: Ash ] sounds like something he'd say in his defense too...
[📲text: Ash ] good, good, I'm too old for his pranks. btw out of context, it was a really funny statement: a party bag distribution.
[📲text: Ash ] it changes my perception of sports lmao
[📲text: Ash ] [liked I mean it's hard when you haven't played (...)]
[📲text: Ash ] yeah, it makes sense. it doesn't happen overnight, a more complex process than flipping a switch but I'm sure it's more stable or permanent this way. fingers crossed it's gonna be a fun journey.
[📲text: Ash ] good, but with a bigger team u can think bigger and be bold with ideas when it's not just one person working on EVERYTHING. 💀 surprisingly, with this kinda tunnel vision it's easier to focus on the project yk
[📲text: Ash ] he's trying, ok, but he's about as good with ladies as I was (was, bc now I don't have to worry about that, not bc anything changed)
[📲text: Ash ] that being said, we both welcome the consequences of our poorly chosen actions 😅

"Do they have any idea who it might have been?" she asked as she picked Baraka to face off against Mileena. Sub-zero. Nice one. How about the euthanizer? "Ha ha!" Emily threw out as many combos as she could while trying to also focus on the seriousness of their conversation and just how fucked up it had made her brother-in-law and his new girlfriend, situation, firtation....Autumun.
"I think the fact that you come up with your stuff out of thin air is what scares people," she mused as Mileena knocked Baraka back a few feet along with his health bar. Not so fast little lady. "Ku-ku-ku-kombo breaker!"
"But they just don't know the difference between real psychos like the one who did that - oh nice throw - and your beautifully dark imagination," she added with a consoling kiss to his lips, side eyeing the screen with the distraction.
ROUND TWO! FIGHT!
"How's Eric holding up in all of this? Did you guys have to call your big dogs to handle the fallout?"
Zach shook his head, mostly because he had no idea, but he was hoping they would catch the person responsible for the accident. And the incident. Both words fit what happened on the screen a moment later - they always picked the same characters, kicking the other's butt with child-like enthusiasm and lots of half-censored swear words that faded into giggles... Or more swear words. It was like therapy, even if they still discussed a serious matter.
"Good, they should be scared. Some of them are my main inspirations," he joked. Half-joked, actually. Would anyone be surprised if he listed "intrusive thoughts" as helpful for his creative process? "Fuc- Don't do that, don't stab me in the back, traitor!" He laughed, trying to save Mileena, but-...
He kissed Emily on the cheek before the second round started. "Exactly — thanks, oh, good one but you pissed me off, babe — but what makes me the happiest is that you find it beautifully dark. Cause outta all those people, I wouldn't want to put you off." He focused on the game for a moment because losing two rounds in a row would be a bit disappointing, and once he felt safe enough to continue, he started with a thoughtful hum.
"He thrives in chaos. Give him a problem to solve, a damsel in distress, and he's in his element." He smirked to himself. "Which is precisely why I wanna play a guardian angel. Make sure he's... holding up. How nosy can I be?" Oscar and Emily have been there before... Kind of. "Talking to Autumn and Eric, you know. How much is — whoa, eat this! fun, isn't it?! — How much is too much?"
ashton: as if you've ever known me to be someone to go around casually banging people
ashton: everyone that wasn't being too distracted by sex that is, we got our different priorities 🤷
ashton: you'll get yours when you next visit carroll again, best i can do is a postcard, sponsored by your very own Sander
ashton: thank you, i appreciate it, we're doing our best! it's been interesting with new teammates for the country compared to the NHL clubs, refreshing even. But we're still looking for that team chemistry
ashton: oh! Give Doom all the pets, Dawn for sure misses that lil rascal too, it's been awhile, how's he been?
[📲text: Ash ] do you know how many people from Bruce Wayne's circle DIDN'T know he was Batman?
[📲text: Ash ] ok, nice, I'll pay y'all a visit when you're back. just don't let my brother touch it bc he might pin it to a board or something 😛 even if I won't be using it it doesn't mean I don't want it intact lol
[📲text: Ash ] forget the condom convo, all serious now, talking about teams and clubs: refreshing is one thing, but isn't it a bit more beneficial when u get to do the same thing but with a different team? Maybe I should ask when I know ur team chemistry is all good, but still.
[📲text: Ash ] bc much as I hate changes, joining my crew was a huge leap and I've learned A LOT since then.
[📲text: Ash ] on it! make sure Dawn gets hers from me, I'll try and come with Doom next time so they can hang. he's good and a LITTLE BIT less tasmanian devil, so Dawn should appreciate it 💙
[📱text: Mr. Wexley ] Sir, what's this? [image attached]
[📱text: Mr. Wexley ] Rhiannon Wells says it's for Valentine's Day, and since they look like real flowers... I believe your family is throwing a party. Are they real flowers?
[📱text: Mr. Wexley ] if anyone asks, could you lie I'm allergic to them? 😛
When was the last time you made a game that WASN'T fucked up?
When was the last time you...?
"Fucked up? Betcha didn't bat an eye when you saw Quiet in The Phantom Pain. Fear sells just as well as sex and nothing about this phenomenon is fucked up."
ashton: what? you think it's me? sexing it up in the village? lmaooo i'm just locked in for the gold
ashton: i'm just hoarding the free condoms I got as a great leverage for bartering 😌
ashton sent an image:
ashton: gotten me quite a few extra swag and souvenirs and badges
ashton: I did promise some people I was gonna bring some of the Olympic condoms home tho :// idk why but sure
ashton: how's your valentines day huh?

Zach wanted everything to be perfect, so he checked the settings for the tenth time, the setup – especially the lighting, because this time he was in the office, streaming straight from the place where the O.utlast game was born – and it had to be the fiftieth time he asked Emily if everything looked good.
"Do you think this bloody guy over there is too much?" He chuckled, moving a little to the side so she could see the figurine a bit better, but the dim lighting seemed to "censor" some bits just enough. "He's always there, chilling during the streams...- Okay, we're gonna play a graphic game and I'm worried about a cutout." He sighed, amused, and looked into the camera. "I'm exceptionally nervous, Em-and-Em."
