I have to still make the CAD, but I wanted to share the background and picture of the character I'm working on, spoiler tagged to save space:
I've been searching for him my entire life, sometimes even without knowing. It's not like my mother didn't raise me well, she cared for me... but while most of the kids could rely on a father, I didn't have one. Sure, mother was a bright scientist and quite pretty, and even as she aged men still called her cute. But those men weren't my father, and never liked the wandering eyes of some of them. To this day I still don't even know why was I looking for a father that left me. Filling a gap? Having an explanation? Some sort of closure? Go figure, I'm not going to a shrink to dig so deep, the important thing was that I wanted him, even without knowing him loved the idea of having a father. Maybe if I found him, maybe if he explained... I could have his love too. But mother always refused to talk, since the day I first asked until the one she abruptly died on a car crash. And there I was. Alone. Unanswered. That solitude only made me search harder, I had to find him, but the answer came by itself. Rummaging through mother's old stuff found a key and some boring electric bills, but they weren't of our home's address. If that place still existed, if the key belonged there... From the outside it just was a run of the mill apartment and as the key granted passage, I saw some letters scattered on the floor. It seemed that some payments were due, I'd have to take care of them now that mother was dead, supposing that the place hold anything of importance. The whole place had a fine layer of dust all around, and the kitchen never seemed to have seen any use, but there was a strange faint buzzing sound coming from the bedroom. I'll admit that for a moment I doubted, what was I getting into? What if I was better off without knowing? If mother didn't tell me it had to be a good reason, right? But not knowing was way worse, not knowing was poisonous and pushed me into that place. Strangely enough, what it should be the bedroom didn't have a bed, but a table and some chairs around it. Blueprints were scattered on it, weird technology schematics, floorplans of different places... I couldn't tie things together, but the static noise was gone. Approaching to a cardboard box in a corner, the contents felt awfully weird, almost out of place in that weird apartment. Two photo albums were stored there, and their covers were quite battered from use. The first one contained newspaper clippings, mainly from the Daily Bugle, and as I rummaged around, they all had something in common: Spider-Man. Knowing that so called newspaper it didn't come of as a surprise, but why were they there? Moving on to the next album, the surprise was even greater. Pictures of me were on every page of that thing, with annotations around. "Sophia, ten months" read one, "Sophia, first steps" a second, "Sophia, state science contest, first prize" another some pages along. It felt quite creepy at the time, won't lie. Some of them I had seen them at home... so mother had to send those copies here... to my father? There was no other explanation. But then, if she knew who he was, where he was... why didn't she tell me? Why didn't he come visit? My eyes drifted to the other album, wondering, dreaming, when the buzzing sound returned stronger, coming from the still unchecked wardrobe. Conflictive thoughts filled my mind. Did my father love me? What was hidden there? Who was my father? Was I going to die without knowing? A creature resembling a living knot of metallic arms swarmed out of the wardrobe, it seemed wary, but that didn't make it stop its motion towards me as I pressed myself against a wall. There was nowhere to flee, a scream died in my throat as those tentacles enveloped me, replacing what I expected to be crushing pain with something oddly resembling... a hug? Then two facts came to me, one clear as daylight, other a memory from the news: Doctor Octopus was my father. And Doctor Octopus was killed by the Punisher months ago, not long before my mother died. The anger, the frustration I felt and still do. I was so close... and yet I arrived late, answers taken from me by a man with a gun. Even if cold to the touch, I returned the hug to that metallic mass, the last legacy of the father I no longer could ever meet. Cried, yelled, sobbed. But I wasn't alone, the tentacles seemed to echo every thought, every feeling. With them, I felt a connection to the brilliant man I could no longer meet. With them I could have something resembling the father I never met, and yet I could still know, but above all... With them I could have revenge. Picture: |
