#addison project

snippet of just that scene below the cut if you wanna read it btw >:)

CW for exactly what it says on the tin. vivid, probably inaccurate description of POV character burning alive, ect ect.

featuring Dahlia's neverending grief because i find it so compelling to write about :3

addison started out as just a smart, analytical person but now i have learnt that she is also someone who actively ranks conversations with her new coworker in her head based off of if she thinks she did well at social interaction. she's very well adjusted :)

thanks for the tag @seastarblue!

Doing my bbs Addison and Martin from my WIP novel, Spiritborne (working title teehee)

---

Who looks more like their dad?

Addison and Martin are identical twins, so technically both of them, but I'm gonna say Martin does on account of Addison being trans and having been on estrogen since she was 16

Who looks more like their mom?

Again, identical twins. But this time Addison is the lookalike winner :)

Who eats the most?

Addison. Martin is still in frequent contact with their parents and is influenced by their restrictive eating guidelines for the sake of his continued modelling career (which Addison broke free of)

Who has been in the weirdest situations?

Addison. She's a magic detective and Martin is a simple model and businessman.

Who sleeps the most?

Martin. Addison has PTSD and is also a workaholic who thrives on coffee, so sleep doesn't come easy or often to her.

Who has the most stable romantic life?

Martin. He has a wife and two kids. Meanwhile Addison hasn't been in a relationship for five years.

What is the worst habit of each?

Addison's is the aforementioned workaholic-ness. She literally lost her arm due to her dedication to her job and she needs to chill a bit. Martin's is probably speeding tbh. He's rich as fuck and doesn't care about tickets.

Who is the most dramatic?

Martin, easily. Addison is far too jaded. Though when they're together her more dramatic side is drawn out by him.

Who has the weirdest phase?

Neither tbh. During childhood they were lorded over and managed pretty strictly by their parents, so there was never really an opportunity to do anything 'weird.' Though perhaps Addison went a little crazy with her newfound freedom after breaking free from them. Something for me to think about.

Who is the best cook in the family?

Addison. Martin has been getting served by the family cook his entire life, while Addison was forced to properly learn after she was cut off.

What is their best memory together?

Getting to go to their highschool camp together and finally be free of their parents for a week.

What is their worst memory together?

Addison choosing to leave the family and be cut off to chase her dreams. They reunited not to long after, but it was still the first time in their lives they would be apart for any length of time, which was painful for both of them.

What is their dream trip together?

Visiting their hometown in France together, just the two of them. Unfortunately it will likely never happen as they're both too busy and Martin goes there pretty frequently on business trips anyways.

Would you rather: Not be able to shower OR not be able to change clothes?

Addison: not be able to change clothes. She wears her work uniform 90% of the time anyway. She would miss dressing up though.

Martin: not be able to shower. He needs to change clothes pretty frequently for his modelling.

Who’s older?

Addison, by two minutes.

Describe each other in three words.

Martin describing Addison: "Intelligent, stubborn, self-righteous"

Addison describing Martin: "Generous, caring, goofball."

Who’s their role model?

Addison's is her boss, Vice Chief of detectives, Alyx Luaz.

Martin's is their dad.

Who usually has the worst ideas?

Martin, if he had the freedom to actually follow through.

Who is the certified “Bug Killer”?

Addison. Esp in adulthood. Girl has been immolated; she Does Not Care about a cockroach.

this was a lot of fun! uhhh idk who to tag tho so... open tag! if you wanna do it, go wild :) Blanks under the cut

Addison raised an eyebrow. “And that would be…?” Dahlia grinned. “That you’re totally warming up to me, you just don’t wanna admit it.” Addison hummed. “Again, I never claimed otherwise. I found your work ethic and intuition during the investigation to be both admirable and indispensable, and your friendly nature makes you easy to get along with. I can foresee quite a productive working relationship between us.”  “...Has anyone ever told you you talk like a HR guidebook on workplace relationships?” Addison’s cheeks burned. Brig had indeed told her that once. She didn’t reply. “Well, whatever,” Dahlia continued. “I’ll thaw you out yet, Addy.” Addison wasn’t really sure what that meant, so she didn’t reply to that, either.

🌟🌹🌼 for the oc of your choice!

Picking Dahlia from my book to motivate myself to finish writing the current chapter of her POV lol

🌟- Is this oc good at expressing themself through words or do they have to use other means? I'd say Dahlia is pretty decent at getting her point across, but she's definitely a chronic procrastinator when it comes to admitting things she's nervous about. Girl will literally develop an alternate history for herself in her head to justify not telling someone something they honestly deserve to know. It's a bit of a problem of hers.

🌹- What's this oc's biggest fear Probably either having her horns ripped off (again) or losing everything she's worked so hard to build for herself (again)

🌼- What's your favorite thing about this oc? her tail has a fluffy tip and when she's happy it swishes back and forth :3
