Marlene knocking the shit out of Vasili/Vincent at first sight during her “fight or flight” mode. She’s on autopilot and offence-mode. My sister had the audacity to message me these memes. (ノ‥ )ノ:
Overall past that, I think she’ll be indifferent and impassive, maybe a bit sarcastic, for a long while if they meet more than one time. But she’ll appreciate his quiet nature once realizing he’s kind of a mute and silent communication works for her most of the time. Marlene stopped being a talkative and social person from her recent traumas, but she’s still expressive and openly voices her opinions, uncaring if she comes across blunt or not. She’s emotionally constipated.

After proceeding to subdue him during a fight and knocking him down near an edge of a building, but tied his ankle with a wire so Vincent doesn’t fall down to his death.
“Hang in there, maybe you’ll get a chance to take me down next time. You’re good, really, but something’s holding you back.” She tapped his boot before walking off. “Maybe don’t hold back next time. I’d prefer when you’re not.” Yeah, Marlene’s humour is a bit broken and likes to poke at others for their reaction sometimes. 🥲
And she unintentionally tends to gives out mixed signals too.
Marlene knocking the shit out of Vasili meanwhile he's internally screaming like, "WHAT DID I DO?!"
Overall, Vasili might find it hard to go through Marlene's feelings, since she had emotionally blocked herself from everyone, but at the same time, Marlene noticed Vasili too who can't just speak about anything either, nor the things he has in his mind, because of the mental impact of the brainwashing that affected his urge to speak. Complicated situation, eh?
Oh god, the way Vasili's heart would have almost stopped beating if it weren't for Marlene's immediate action to tie his ankle down. For some reason, he appreciates the woman's courage and strength, along with the way she deals with anybody that comes through her way and gets the job done, like how she dealt with Bell. I am pretty sure he'll have a hard time understanding Marlene's humour but let it go, somehow. As long as they grow close, maybe he will! 🤣

Marilyn Monroe as Lillian Russell. Russell was one of the most famous actresses & singers at the turn of the century, known for her beauty & style, as well as for her voice and stage presence.
Marilyn Monroe as Theda Bara, silent film star from 1914 – 1926.
In 1958 Monroe posed for a series of photographs taken by Richard Avedon for Life Magazine. The photographs were to accompany an article titled “Fabulous Enchantresses” where Monroe recreated five famous actresses, Lillian Russell, Theda Bara, Clara Bow, Jean Harlow, & Marlene Dietrich. Though Avedon was not completely happy with the photographs, the pictures appeared in the Christmas issue of Life. This issue also included her husband, playwright Arthur Miller's article “My Wife” which introduced Monroe’s “Fabulous Enchantresses”.

Heyo, lovely! I’m bored, waiting during an examination, i was wondering on how Vasily and Marlene would interact. She somehow got time travelled to the early 80s, it’ll be explained in the story soon, and just surviving. So I think these two would meet during a chase. So heads up, Marlene’s first instinct is to protect herself, so it’ll likely end up in a fight during a pursuing since he’s associated with Adler. I just love your Bell OC, Vasily. 🥹 🫶
Sorry for the late reply! Hope your examination went well! And the love you all have been giving to Vasili, it's ABSOLUTELY heartwarming and thank you for that! 。゚(TヮT)゚。
Knowing Marlene, she absolutely matches somewhere around Bell's personality as well! If you think about it, she's reserved, intelligent, and knows what should be done, in the same way Vasili is. Of course, looking at the two, they're going to end up in a fight, and Bell on the other hand would find a way to defend himself.
The man may fight physically but not verbally, which can cause a little difficulty to make the woman understand that he had nothing against her. I can see him going into entirely defensive mode since he doesn't want to injure Marlene back, but at some point Vasili would stop her and try to convince he's not an enemy. And I feel Marlene herself would start to understand as well.
About their interaction once they calm down, Marlene might notice one quality of Vasili — he doesn't talk. Which kind of baffles her if he's mute, but it's a way different story. Communication is what makes the person know what the other feels, but it'll be hard for her to understand Vasili's thoughts because he cannot seem to grow the urge to speak, because of the brainwashing done by the MACV-SOG, that mentally blocked him. I wondered in what ways, Marlene might help Vasili break through his silence and get to know about everything she's unaware of?
Thanks for asking this question, this was so interesting to think about! Let me know what your thoughts are about it <3

⎯ 𝗣𝗘𝗥𝗦𝗢𝗡𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗧𝗬 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗜𝗧𝗦:
Myers-Briggs Type: INTJ-T (The Architect)
Calm and reserved: Despite having her moments of being a spitfire, she is actually a well composed individual and this really helps her in matters of survival. Although pretty social sometimes, then she can be completely asocial, Marlene is not exactly the kind of person who wouldn't instantly show her actual personality to others whom she'd just met. She handles stressful situations with the pressure very well most of time.
Selfless and loyal: Marlene may be an impassive and hardened young woman, but she has a good soul and heart. Those who are lucky to be a genuine friend of hers are privileged to see her display her true self at most times. Has the tendency to put others before herself. Marlene's love language is giving gifts, acts of service, and physical touch- which the latter is a rare thing of her to do frequently as a young adult now. Keeps it discreet though.
Tough as nails: She is unbelievably durable and endures a lot of life-threatening situations. Often gets underestimated by others, but tends to straighten them up with a surprise. It still hurts, yes, although she just quickly learns how to suck it up and keep going without letting it drag her down.
Jaded and weary: It's safe to mention that Marlene didn't had a normal childhood and went through a lot of hardships growing up with a paranoid survivalist of a mother. Kind of a sore spot for her to be asked about. Has a bad case of PTSD and denies her clinical diagnoses constantly. ("I'm fine." is her favourite saying) Has a complex relationship with her mother, her only parent that raised her this way, which means Marlene cares and resents her at the same time, yet she internally respects the woman who taught her most of everything she knows. She suffered from losses who were dearly significant to her... somethings she isn't ready to openly talk about. So the girl is just simply exhausted from existing.
Adaptable and intelligent, also a polyglot: If thrown into an environment that Marlene hadn't been in before, she will learn and adapt if it's necessary. Growing up traveling with her mother had taught her some things. She's quite a multilingual genius, speaks and read around 37(ish) languages, but also graduated high school at sixteen before attending Stanford University and finishing in three years for her computer science degree. So in a shorter summary, she's an eager and fantastic learner.
-
⎯ 𝗦����𝗜𝗟𝗟𝗦 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗔𝗕𝗜𝗟𝗜𝗧𝗜𝗘𝗦:
Primary Weapons: Knife, Karambit neck knife, Remington 700PSS, HK-MP5K, HK-MP5A3, TP-82, XM177E1, and Pipe Bombs.
Fighting Style: Hand-to-hand combat, some MMA.
Special Skills: Great at reading others' body languages and sensing danger.
Talents: She can learn to speak at another language in a short span of time, craft explosives such as a pipe bomb within an hour if she has the resources, and create traps with the right stuff.
Shortcomings: Can get paranoid most of the time, chronically insomniac, has some trust issues, and suffers from terrible migraines.

⎯ 𝗕𝗜𝗢𝗚𝗥𝗔𝗣𝗛𝗬:
"Born and grew up outside of Fairbanks in an isolated cabin for five years of her life with her mother, who had Marlene at eighteen, and mostly traveled around on the road after. She grew up with tough love and Melissa, her mother, was fiercely overprotective with her only child. Once they settled somewhere in California when she was eight where Marlene finally got enrolled in a public school where her peers would eventually learn about her intellect. She never knew how, or where, her mother earned her huge incomes to financially support themselves, but knows Melissa just has an every important job whenever she isn't home. Besides, whenever her mother was confronted, she was just met with a firm look by her and the woman stating that it's none of her concern as Marlene should just focus on herself. Eventually this led to her rebellious behaviour before incidents occurred and slowly shaped Marlene into a withdrawn teenager in college."
"Her history with Taskforce 141 was purely platonic. Met them through her mother, one by one when she was an teenager, before the group realized she was Melissa's baby girl and they all knew the same woman who met each of them outside of their occupations. She've met Phillip Graves when she was a kid when he came by to confront her mother before a father-daughter bond was formed between them since then. David Mason is her godfather and one of the people whom Marlene looks up to- much to Graves' dismay."
"When she was done with college at nineteen and the year 2021-[REDACTED]."
"Until 2022, she was brought into the CIA's custody in middle of a late evening walk, more like by Taskforce 141, and interrogated after some evidence of her was caught stealing some invaluable intel and secrets, appearing as one of their employees, before she was picked up by a black van after that. She kept denying the accusations and evidence for weeks until Graves, allegedly dead at the time, safely liberated her despite Marlene being in a frail condition with the help from David Mason and proof that she was truly innocent. Someone had framed her."
"Then not too long hours after she was brought into his protective custody, no one knew who helped her other than the fact that she escaped CIA's custody, as one of The Shadow Company's bases was attacked. Mostly everyone made it out, but Marlene who was soon announced dead after she passed out from the blood loss with the base getting bombed into nothing once they were forced to leave her behind. Leaving Graves and David angry, distraught, and vowed to avenge her once they find the culprits. Her remains were never found after that."

*Profile will be be updated once the story progresses and kept her backstory vague(ish) for now.
