(hello it’s kit again with another bangtan boy. insert real application here when it’s posted bc i didn’t save it bc i’m garbage so rn just have the parts i can remember)

( kim seokjin, cismale, he/him. ) — ATOM CHOI has lived at the L.A Coterie for SIX (??) MONTHS. They’re TWENTY FIVE(??) years old, and working as a BUG BOUNTY HUNTER. Sometimes when you walk by their door, you can hear KEANU REEVES by LOGIC playing.

Atom was born in Los Angeles, California, his parents having immigrated only a few years before with his older sister. The move had been financially tough for the family, and it was something they never quite recovered from. Growing up Atom was taught to not ask for much, and to expect even less. He knew it wasn’t because his parents didn’t love him, they one thing they were in abundance of during his childhood was love. But it got to a point in his life where it felt like it wasn’t enough. Seeing kids at school with their amazing lunches and fancy clothes made Atom feel... Kind of worthless.

It was during high school that he started to lash out, it started with stealing small things and getting away with it, which then turned to stealing bigger things. There had been more than once Atom had to run away from cops, and for some reason he loved the adrenaline of the chase. He smoked, drank, and got into fights, and it was during this stage of his life that he met Carson. Atom had never met anyone like her before, and it wasn’t long before friendship turned into something more. They loved each other, but they were so bad for each other, egging each other on and provoking when maybe they shouldn’t be provoked. It was the two of them against the world, until Carson realized that the world had more in it than just them. Knowing she had to get her act together she broke up with Atom, leaving him devastated.

Atom couldn’t stand the thought of staying in California, so he packed his prized possessions, some clothes, and all the money he had in a bag, and hitch hiked. He didn’t know where he was going, and it took weeks for him to settle, couch surfing with strangers he met (most of which, also liked to party), until finally he settled in Vermont. One of the guys he’d met on the road had a room for rent, and he couldn’t turn it down. After Carson, Atom didn’t think he could fall in love again, not like that. That was until he met Alek.

As much as he should have seen the signs, Atom didn’t realize just how hard and fast he fell for the man a few years younger than him. It didn’t take long until they were spending more time with each other than without, always at each other’s houses, and by the end they were almost inseparable. Which, is what made it so hard to juggle time when Atom finally found a purpose in life. Through a friend of a friend, of an acquaintance of a friend, Atom was introduced into the cyber security world. Informally for those who don’t have government based jobs, this is simply hacking. It was the first thing in his life that Atom had been good at, and he became obsessed. The ninety five percent of his time he spent with Alek was slowly dropping lower and lower. Which very much was a problem as Atom convinced Alek to move to California with him due him wanting to both go to college, and his homesickness.

The move had been hard on Alek, having to leave his family, and his mom, and his everything. And Atom should definitely have been more attentive to him. However, it was the first time in his life he was good at something, and could really be great and apply himself while actually still enjoying the task. Over the months he paid less and less attention to his boyfriend, only crawling back to him late at night when it suited him most. Alek was growing to resent him, and Atom had no idea. They started to fight more and more until one day it was the last straw, and it was over.

Now, you’ll find Atom in his room, engulfed in darkness except for the dim light spilling from his monitor, wrapped in a blanket with his earphones in playing his favorite music. He rarely leaves, concentrating hard on sorting through more and more layers of code, until he has something suitable to report to a company. Bug bounty hunting is huge if you know what you’re doing, especially if you can successfully find and properly report a bug within companies like Apple or even Facebook. While those are few and far between, there are other companies that offer good money, too. With the large payouts that Atom can get, let’s just say he doesn’t spend it wisely, often opting to flaunt it rather than save it. What else are you doing to do when you grew up poor?

Atom goes out to raging parties maybe once a month, spending hundreds upon hundreds on alcohol and drugs.

He’s an actual goblin when he’s working, having stashes of food saved in his room so he rarely has to leave. It’s a problem. Please make him shower.

After his two very much failed relationships, he’s decided the whole love thing isn’t for him. However he rarely goes out to seek one night stands, only really taking people as they come.

When he is your friend, he’s boisterous and loud, an image of who he was before he started to rebel.

With being boisterous and loud comes being dramatic AF. Death is solution to any minor inconvenience.

Lúcio totally had polio hear me out

here are a compilation of my “Lúcio with polio” talks with people

i am Ricky

First polio talk

Evan: you guys what if he had polio as a child

Ricky: oh dang do go on i could imagine that being a thing in some favelas but lucio would be the only one unlucky enough to get it in his favela as a kid the entire favela pitching in to get him a wheelchair

Evan: I mean, polio actually doesn't result in paralysis that often, apparently?

Ricky: If we're talking about poliomyelitis

Evan: yep

Ricky: About 0.5 percent of the cases do have muscle weakness which usually involves the legs And most people fully recover, but far from all

Evan: Outcome Proportion of cases[1] No symptoms 72% Minor illness 24% Nonparalytic aseptic meningitis 1–5% Paralytic poliomyelitis 0.1–0.5% — Spinal polio 79% of paralytic cases — Bulbospinal polio 19% of paralytic cases — Bulbar polio 2% of paralytic cases from wikipedia, but the data is sourced from the cdc and I checked it everyone had polio. lucio was the lucky fuck who got spinal polio

Ricky: and like he'd never fully recover from it? so that he'd regain some strength and control over his muscles but his muscles would be like permanently weakened

Evan: yes that's why he's got them weirdass leggies cause they're actually augmented so he can actually do shit

Sleigh: ;_;) i love this

Evan: and the skates are a bonus to make him require less effort to move

Ricky: But him still having his own legs and that his leggies are only armour that respond to his muscle movements and enhances them? Like through electrode bullshit I dunno

Evan: I was thinking that, yeah, cause his legs are pretty bulky compared to his upper body I mean, they do have completely prosthetic limbs, so they have the technology™ also, Genji Shimada lol

Sleigh: *handclap emoji*

Ricky: Genji's a walking example of They Have The Technology™ What if During a mission or some shit I dunno Sombra would hack him, just to disable his amplifier and crossfade and she'd be shocked to see Lúcio just collapse and she'd probably react like "oh shit fam u ok"

Sleigh: NOO omg

Ricky: LÚCIO BEING DISTRESSED AT HIS LEGS SUDDENLY NOT WORKING

Sleigh: NO stop This is... Too much

Ricky: I'm s ORRYy,,,, anyway he'd just be on the ground trying to drag himself to safety, failing due to the fucking weight of his armour

Sleigh: Ooh boy

Ricky: and Reinhardt would just slam down his shield like "GET BEHIND ME" and protect the little froggo so that someone could help him out of harms way and they'd finish the mission

Sleigh: Aw

-----------------------------------------

More polio Lúcio talks

Ricky: dunno if anyone remembers the lucio with polio headcanon the one where he has a wheelchair and shit but what if he'd keep the polio thing strictly secret for the longest time

Sleigh: I rememebe I always think about it tbhhh

gabrielreyes: I don't but I have a need

Sleigh: ok but like i have a gencio rp and it keeps me alive

Ricky: like he would try to not be seen in his wheel chair, like only a few select people like mercy, tracer and hana would know maybe?? and

Sleigh: yes

Ricky: like, he'd always be the first one to arrive to breakfast and the last one to leave, always the first one to sit down at debriefing meetings

Eu: oh man this sounds like it has feels

Sleigh: YELLS

gabrielreyes: Wait... How does he hide it?

Ricky: and noone would think it was weird until he was forced to walk/stand for longer than he was used to and he'd jst kind of

gabrielreyes: Oooh

Ricky: well i'm glad u asked spinal poliomyelitis brings muscle weakness and sometimes paralyze the victim, mostly children

Sleigh: If you search polio you can find it in the history

Ricky: and most people recover fully, but our thought here was that lucio would have recovered a lot of his muscle strength and control, but far from all so he'd usually have a wheel chair but he'd be able to walk and stand for short distances and smol periods of time

Ricky: but my thought here is that he'd one day have to walk a fair distance and he'd try but eventually his legs would just kind of give out and he'd fall and people would crowd around him asking if he was okay and he'd just kind of "so uh i have something to tell y'all, lena can you get my chair pls" and he'd sit everyone down and explain that as a kid in the favela he had had spinal polio and it basically fucked up his muscle strength and control from his waist down

Sleigh: Yesss

Ricky: what if he'd try his damndest to keep it a secret from 76, winston and genji though bc he'd be afraid that 76 and winston would kick him out if they knew???? also genji being a fucking ninja can't possibly want to hang out with someone that can't stand up for longer than three minutes

gabrielreyes: Aww

------------------------------------------------ More polio Lúcio talks

Ricky: Polio lucio headcanons coming in I had a thought that Lúcio probably loves being outside and he'd love to watch Genji and/or Hanzo climb the cliffs around Gibraltar But he'd be jealous bc he couldn't even walk up a hill and the roads to the highest points of the watchpoint were too steep for his wheelchair to handle So what if Genji one day would just "Get on my back and hold on tight" and when Lúcio was holding himself securely on his back he'd break into a sprint and climb up the cliff wall with Lúcio on his back Like imagine Lúcio screaming with glee and excitement Like he'd probably be able to use his augmented armour and stuff to get up the hills but Genji would want him to experience climbing even though he wasn't climbing himself? And maybe he didn't like to wear his armour outside of gigs or battle

gabrielreyes: -lucio clinging like the frog boy he is- but omg that's so cute im in pain
