GRRRR THEY MAKE ME ANGRY! STOP BEING KINDA CUTE!
Privet! Could you give us more headcanons abt Vernon and AM? Such an interesting dynamic you have, can't help it but wish there were more!
Привет привет! Thank you so much for the ask, I'm so happy you enjoy my dynamics of the two :D 💞💞 it really motivates me!
VernonAM Headcanons 🏺🖥️
Upon getting AM getting a body, the Food and clothing situation in the complex significantly improved since it SUCKED having his senses filled with God awful smells.
Vernon often shares her meals with AM. She doesn't know why she does it, she knows he doesn't need food to survive. But she often finds herself cutting off little portions of her meal for him to try.
AM often latches his fingers onto the end of Vernon's tank top so his body doesn't stray behind. She's a fast walker and won't come back for him if he gets lost.
Their Glasses Match! AM's yellow lenses aren't for eyesight or eye protection like Vernon's. He chose for them to be similar in lens colour so they could be matching.
AM occasionally calls Vernon by her actual name, Veomany. Since he's a primarily English supercomputer, AM sees Lao as a language with strange noises and amuses himself with it. It's a pretty noise.
It's extremely difficult to get into Vernon's mind for information. She doesn't dream, she doesn't recall them easily. AM can only access a small portion of it, her fear. He stopped trying after the first 30 years. So AM has to find out for himself by talking to her and actually getting to know her.
Vernon has no shame. AM has plenty of it. She finds it a little strange that he covers his eyes whenever she changes for laundry. It's cute, He values her privacy. However he's definitely seen her naked decades before so she doesn't understand why he does it now.
And that's all for now! If you made it this far, thank you for reading! If there's any room for clarification please tell me :D
I have a question.
On Vernon, with the fact that we know she's a literal sadomasocist, (I think I said that right...) I'm just curious as to why or how this may have come up. Had she always been this "messed up in the head," as to say, or did she develop her morbid curiosity from an event that changed her?
Howdy Howdy! Thank you so much for the ask!💞💞 My Laotian ocs always have some aspect on Lao culture and history. So 2 in 1, you also get a very brief history lesson!
Had Vernon always been like this?
I believe she was always like this, some people are born the way that they are, and the environment they were raised in can further encourage or discourage their behaviors. If it wasn't for the circumstances of her environment, she might've had the chance to change.
Vernon is born in 1952, A year before Laos gained its independence as a nation (before that, the French recolonized, and before THAT, the Japanese).
For the first six years of her life, Vernon was raised lucky by all means; Rich family, A loving mother and father, grandparents that doted on her, etc. she was well liked by her peers for being friendly, charismatic, and extremely intelligent.
Vernon always exhibited a certain cruelty in her play as a child. She would rip off limbs of insects and line them up, have lizards drop their tails to look at the inside of it, peel back the skin of hers/other's cuts and scrapes. Vernon's parents disciplined her of course, it's just what some kids did at the time and that was their job to fix that.
It wasn't until 1960, one year into the Lao Civil War, when she first witnessed devastation. It wasn't much, Vernon (8) didn't see anything but the rubble of homes and buildings. But there was a little urge in her that wanted to see if there was anything left in them she could keep.
She was caught digging through the rubble of a neighbor's house. Her parents, were furious. She wasn't allowed to leave their side now, they were worried sick, her behavior was subdued for the convenience of her parents.
Four years later, 1964 Americans were now dropping bombs to fight the communist uprising in Laos. A planeload of cluster bombs dropped every 8 minutes, 24 hours a day. Vernon (12) saw death, the smell of ashes, burning hair and skin, limbs strewn about. She was terrified, but fascinated. It was meat, it used to be a person but now it's nothing but flesh. She wished she could've held it for a little bit, poked it, dissect it.
Her parents were already planning to leave Laos due to the tension from the civil war over the years, but now? They had to move fast, gathering what money they had to go to Thailand and taking a boat to America. They got out within the first 4 months.
Vernon lived a relatively normal life in Sacramento. Excelling in school, having a good group of friends. It wasn't until she landed her job as an Archeologist that her behavior, subdued for years, went haywire. Her job was just an outlet for it.
If you got this far, thank you for reading :D I tend to ramble a lot so if there's anything you'd like for me to clarify feel free to tell me!
