Morticia grew up poor with there extremely supportive mom and her very much stuck-in-their-ways grandparents, she was often made fun of as a child for superficial reasons such as not having birthday parties, being “fat”, or even not having a dad in her life; Morticia really only ever really had a hand full of friends that slowly grew apart with time until she in her early teen found people online with similar interests and lives as her, even though those friendships have fizzled out with time she’s found who she really was as a person. Morticia was hired by Cognito after being kidnapped for info after making a joke tumbler blog about birds not being real in her late teens that everyone had taken too seriously, soon to find out her joke theory was, in actuality, the truth she was told she where more valuable as an employee then a civilian, so she initially was hired as an unpaid intern until working her way up to be a high ranking member of the Birds Aren’t Real decision aka B,A,R. Morticia often works alongside Regan Ridley to get new bird designs and features manufactured and up and running, (they bond over the fact they both probably have undiagnosed Autism), Morticia would slowly be introduced to the rest of the team

-Meeting Brett when he wanted to know which set of bird wings would be the most likely to be able to carry a Human (Brett loves how much she knows about animals and often ask her traditionally goofy questions where she always gives a genuinely thought out answers, it does bother her when she doesn’t know the answer to the question)

-Meeting Andre when they broke her leg and he was the only health insurance option, (she still goes to him for strong non-FDA approved painkillers for her EDS)

-Meeting Gigi when she needed to do a media cover-up in 2019, (they bonded over the gullibility of the public)

-Meeting Glenn when designing the possibility of weapons for secret service birds (Glenn doesn’t know if he should dislike Morticia or not based off her views but she always seems to treat him like everyone else)

-Meeting Myc when he tried flirting with her and she genuinely didn’t even realize that he was hitting on her (she is indifferent to his existence as a person but finds his species extraordinarily interesting)

Morticia genuinely loves her job as it combines her two favorite things animal and design, she has also become quite comfortable with her coworkers and considers them her friends wether they do or not.

You are just about to leave the office for the day when you walk by Morticia's office, finding her passed out on her desk laying her head on stacks of Graft paper covered with slightly smudged Graphite with several designs of birds to work into the ecosystem, you walk closer to her office peering threw the glass wall you can now see the deep circular under her eyes and several empty bottles of Dr, pepper and fast food wrappers around her, you wonder how long it been since she’s left her desk.
