(Okay here is the rp we talked about in the dms. It is not canon to what has happened so far, but it can still involve cheesecake if you want to. TW: pricked finger and some blood drawn.)
Dr. Two Brains wiped his brow as he took a break from his latest invention. He looked up, bleary eyed at the clock on the walls in his lair, 5:55 am. Two Brains sighed in exhaustion, he spent another long, sleepless night working on his newest gadget and it was taking a toll on his already messed up sleeping habits. His Henchmen had expressed concerned when he started sleeping in late most of these days. He appreciated that his henchmen were concerned about him, but he had to get this particular gadget done in time. 'It's the only way I can find Mr. Charming and help Wordgirl put an end to this guy. If she wanted too.' Two Brains quietly scolded himself for thinking that. He didn't blame the kid for being confused and hesitant on stopping Mr. Charming now, even he wasn't sure himself if he should end the guy. It was so easy at first hating this new threat that came to terrorize everyone in Fair City. Mr. Charming had no qualms about who he hurt or blew up, he seemed to have a particular vendetta against him and the rest of the villains, but not Wordgirl, never her. It didn't make sense to anyone at the time why Mr. Charming was so hesitant to fight Wordgirl when he was more than eager to set the whole town and everyone in it on fire and watch them burn. It only made sense later when Two Brains removed his mask at the clock tower Mr. Charming was about to blow up. Even then, Mr. Charming's reveal made less sense then his mysterious persona before his mask fell off. It turned out that Mr. Charming looked and sounded exactly like the old Professor Steven Boxleitner. 'But how was that possible?' Two Brains continuously asked himself. He was Steven Boxleitner, or he used to be before the accident. But his feelings toward Squeaky and Two Brains, his intelligence and technological skills, his attitude towards Wordgirl, those were all characteristics of Steven Boxleitner. The other Steven even claimed he was somehow separated from his prisoners and tormentors and now had the chance to exact his revenge on all who failed to save him and let him rot in his mindscape, and Dr. Two Brains was at the top of his hit list. Two Brains had no idea what he was talking about or how it was possible his Steven half was ever separated from him. Did the accident cause some long term side effects, did his other self separate without him even knowing. Dr. Two Brains would have thought his other self might have been a clone, but their are too many factors of Mr. Charming that clones don't have. Two Brains rubbed his eyes trying to heal the pounding headache he was giving himself with all of these questions. He just hoped his new invention would give him and everyone else some answers. Since Mr. Charming must have some type of hideout to store his weapons or recuperate from a battle, Two Brains built a unique type of teleportation device that would allow him to locate Mr. Charming's lair and hopefully learn more about this vindictive duplicate. Dr. Two Brains gave a look over of his invention before deciding to give it a preliminary test run. He walked over to a section of the ray and pressed a button. The button opened a lid that contained a small space that was designed to store DNA. Two Brains personally designed that feature to help put an exact location on Mr. Charming. Since this villain was technically him. The DNA scanner in this teleportation ray would scan his DNA and find the other person in Fair City or near the area with an exact (or close to exact) match.
"Let's hope this works." Two Brains said to himself. He pricked his finger and squeezed out a few droplets of blood into the space. He closed the box then turned on the ray. The ray seemed to fire up well and sounded to be in working order. But as it begun to fire a beam, good old Murphy's law kicked in. The ray started to spark and light up like a christmas tree. Two Brains yelped and jumped back when a few sparks flew towards his direction. He just barely avoided getting electrocuted again. "Maybe I shouldn't have used those plutonium charges." Two Brains said in hindsight. Soon the machine grew brighter and hotter. Fearing an incoming explosion. Two Brains jumped away and ducked behind the couch. A loud boom sounded and a bright flash came from the other side of the couch, then silence. Two Brains opened his eyes a bit and waited a few moments. Sensing that the danger had passed, he slowly got up and peered over his couch. He could see the teleportation ray now a pile of melted metal and plaster. But to his surprise was the two new inhabitants in his lair now passed out a few feet from his damaged ray.
They definitely weren't the ones he was hoping for. Dr.Two-Brains hesitantly took a step closer to get a better look at the two. A damaged ray he could easily repair and handle. Yet this new unexpected turn of events left him rather frustrated. Not only did his plan not work it brought him two unwanted guests. A frown spread across his face as he got a better look at the two. His heart felt as if it stopped once he realized what he was seeing. WordGirl? She seemed different. A soft gasp of horror escaped from him once he realized why. White hair tipped him off, he didn't need to see the other side of her head to put the pieces together. That was rather upsetting to see. His attention was soon on the other inhabitant that he still didn't know who it was. Whoever it was, they were dressed in a costume similar to WordGirls signature wardrobe.
Dr.Two-Brains stood there, wondering what exactly he should do. If he moved them he could potentially wake them up while placing them somewhere else, he didn't know if they'd wake up disoriented and would attack in confusion. So moving them was definitely out. For now the mad scientist decided that he could just get a couple of spare blankets and put it on them. He disappeared for a few minutes before coming back with two blankets. Placing one on each of them.
Now what else could he do about this unexpected situation? It would be unwise to leave them unsupervised in his laboratory. So he could just stay with them until something was figured out. That would have to wait until they wake from their unexpected slumber. This just added to his feeling of uneasiness. First he had to deal with Mr. Charming now he had to deal with this. How could being a mad scientist villain be so stressful?
Dr.Two-Brains broke out his thoughts and started to clean up the mess his failed experiment caused. He would just have to make necessary adjustments to avoid this problem in the future. He'd call in his henchmen but they were on their day off and this would just cause them to worry about him all over again.
A tiny smile managed to work its way onto his expression, thinking about those two. They've become a small messed up family. Even though he does lose his temper and gets abit mean from time to time, they've never left him. They were always loyal to him and for that he was grateful. One of the nice things he had going on.
It took awhile to clean everything up, pieces of ray everywhere. The melted bits were harder to clean up but it wasn't anything he hadn't dealt with before. Plenty of failed rays could back that up. While in the midst of cleaning up the last bit of mess, he hadn't noticed that one of them had began to wake up. Too focused on the task at hand.
