CR MEME

It’s CR Meme time! It's time to touch base with where players are at with their characters in game and look towards the future! While not a requirement, CR Memes are helpful in forging connections with others, along with general housekeeping for what characters are up to during their time in game.

Below is a helpful form to use in laying out your thoughts!

Character Name: Konstantin Veshnyakov
Canon: Sputnik (This character comes with a parasitic alien entity that he unwillingly became host to while on a space mission... There is more information here on the alien, how the setting affects/nerfs parts of its functioning, and a link to more detailed warnings & an opt out, if anyone needs it!)
Residence: A little homestead far on the outskirts of Milton, with the EMT Vasiliy Ardankin | info
Skills: As a Commander and Hero of his country, Konstantin is well-accustomed to the role of leadership, and has experience with the extremely vigorous physical and mental training required for both military and cosmonaut preparation. He has much knowledge of space science and technology, and plenty of experience being in confined environments. He's also extremely good with people, being a model of "social excellence" where he's from and regarded as the Exemplary Soviet Man... However, a lot of this is being tested since he is freshly infected with an entire alien and is weakened and sick due to the game effects... babygirl hasn't exactly been the best version of himself here and it's devastating for him

Aurora Feat: N/A, his possessed ass has enough going on atm

Wanted CR:

alien things — Kostya's been in game for a year now and I really want to amp up the alien horror with him! There's a lot of potential for alien things and I'd love to explore more of it. People encountering this thing unexpectedly, medical folks to help him out with it, people for it to befriend (or alternatively, I'd also love any antagonistic encounters & Worm Enemies), people who can help it find ways to better adjust in this environment where it continues to struggle, I'm down for it all. Something that's been building for him is how to live in a community with others despite his situation and even finding ways to utilise it to help people? Maybe??

friendships / companionships — Kostya's a very friendly and sociable guy, but his Worm Situation has meant he's kept up a certain distance from most folks, even those he's on good terms with. I'd love to strengthen / deepen his cr and find ways to bond with more people, or meet some new! He's also been a "concept" of a thing for so long that learning how to People more genuinely is still really new for him, so I want to do more of that, too.

dadly things — Coming with heaping doses of Father Abandonment issues of his own, Kostya also perpetuated the cycle and ended up abandoning his own son, too! Uh oh! Naturally this is an immense source of guilt in him and he's barely scratched the surface with Son Feels. I'm always here for all the dad talks, themes, younger folks, fellow parents, etc.

other — fellow monsters, fellow heroes / those with complicated experience regarding such a role, anyone with fellow lab rat / experimentation experience, opportunities for leaderships & team-up things. I'd love to find ways for him to become closer with the community itself and become more a part of it. I've had the thought that he might try to offer some kind of particular service to people here, or find people he can help out more in specific ways

Unwanted CR:

Kostya can be a big harmless flirt, but he's spoken for romantically — having fallen for his undead ex-Chekist roomie (as one does)

Day to Day: Usually at his and Vasya's little homestead where he helps tend to things as best as he can despite his Condition - he's also been learning how to do homemaker things like cooking and cleaning, as well as assisting Vasiliy on occasion when he sees patients. He ventures to town at times to make trades / try to keep in the know with what's been going on, spends some time ice-fishing and foraging for whatever he can, scavenging any electrical and technological parts for little projects, and seeking out some social situations to recharge his extroverted battery. He also walks / jogs a lot, trying to keep himself in good physical shape despite how ill his condition makes him, and he will rope anyone in with him who wants to (and even people who don't. You Will Run)

The Story So Far / Plans:

— Dealing with the fallout of September's events, in which his alien passenger killed & fed from an Interloper NPC during the chaos. Feeding from human blood stabilised its (and Kostya's) condition for a few weeks, but he's now back to being very ill, and isn't handling it well. The knowledge that in order to feel well and be more capable he'd have to feed regularly from humans is a pretty hefty one.

— Now that the alien has freshly fed from its preferred food choice, Kostya's going to be extremely worried that it might want to do that again soon, so he'll be concerned with making sure it knows who's Friends. We don't eat Friends. He'll be looking to really get into things like talking more to his cr about it / getting them "closer" to this thing / trying to train it / learn more about its functioning / etc. It goes directly against his preferred method of handling things, which is to Run Away & Ignore the Ugly Stuff, so I'd love to keep pushing against his comfort levels there.

— Inbetween all that, he's become Boyfriends(?) what are Labels?? + some Bisexual Panic?? with Vasya, after they survived the harrowing Forest Talker Invasion in September together. Konstantin's Genuinely In Love with someone else for the first time in his life (incredible but terrifying!), and has a lot of personal reservations / uncertainties / fears about his situation to go along with it. Being So Close to someone feels like the last thing someone like him should do, and there's endless guilt about the life he's "left behind" back home. All that said, I think he's having to learn how to let himself be genuinely happy, and what that actually means.

— atm I'd really love to do some cr-building / expanding type things, and dive in deeper with Kostya in this setting now that he's been here for a good while and largely fizzled out of the idea that "Escaping This Place" is the main goal. Now it's more about surviving and helping others survive, and finding ways to have as good a quality of life as he can despite his "condition", as well as possible ways to work with and around it. It's a constant part of his existence now, and I'd love to explore that concept more deeply! The longer-term psychological effects just as much as the physical, etc.

Sorry it took me forever to wrap their most recent thread, but the Doctor is very serious about doing anything he can to help Kostya — I'd love to build on that momentum and do something new with them. I didn't want to assume too much, but if you were up for it, he would have definitely at least checked in on him the best he could, but I'd love more with them.

I could set up a thread with them if you were interested!

No worries at all, I have been the slowest bean in existence these days

I'm totally happy to assume some check-ins happened! And I would also love to thread something with the Doctor again, this cr is so great already and I'm really excited for all the potential with them!

Kostya was definitely lying low for a good while after September's attack, so it could be fun for them to touch base and for him to maybe reveal to the Doctor that this thing killed & ate someone.... He'll be lowkey (highkey) nervous how the Doctor would react to that but I think definitely also increasingly desperate to get some help about it all!

Yes, super agreed on that, I'm very excited for all the potential with them! And definitely the chance for Kostya to share about the creature killing and eating someone. Looking forward to it!

I set up a top level here if this works okay, I thought he could pop by for an unannounced visit lol. But also super flexible to adjust this if they should meet up somewhere else to connect!

omg, this is so perfect. He brought biscuits, he's precious and I love him ;; Thank you for setting this up, I'm excited to hop in asap and excited to explore this spacey cr more!

Absolutely! Excited for more with them too. c:

I still would love to do a montage thread of them running into each other that covers like the last six months lol... and I don't know how it could possibly happen but can you imagine these two commitment phobes freaking out and commisserating together??

LISTEN I would absolutely be down, we could even just have a running log to slap up dumb little Moments for him to bother the fuck out of her in.... and god it's still so funny to me that somewhere out there I fully believe in a Sing AU where these two end up coping with their Feelings & Commitment Angsts by having at least 1 one night stand... Imagine Kostya like "this means you like me in SOME way now, right?" as she's literally pulling off his manslut t-shirt and Wynonna genuinely just "no?? of course not"
She'll never like you in any way, Kostya

But it truly is incredible how much they could Relate about that!! Honestly if there ever is an opportunity for it, that would be really fun to see play out, maybe they'll be able to have a moment sometime.... Nothing scarier in this frosted hellscape than commitment & catching feelings for another human being

Oh my god running log, yes I am down, them just popping in and out of each other's radar now and then and Kostya annoying the shit out of her... and SAY IT LOUDER, you're so right, in a very slightly sideslipped Sing them hooking up as copium just makes sense.

This place is literally hell!!! no not because of the constant freezing temperatures or the never-ending dark or the supernatural fuckery, because they caught feelings and it's the most terrifying thing in the world

We absolutely have to do this, it would be so funny..... their ongoing interactions... Kostya sticking his big butt out at her trying to get her to notice his assets....

I also really do love the idea of them having A Moment to relate about this shit, and it's so ironic that she's one of the few people who would Get It so much, apart from probably Chloe. Maybeeeee there will be an opportunity for that soon? 👀 Or we could always make one at some point inbetween event shenanigans! I'm sure Kostya will be lingering around somewhere in major need of a drink that he tragically can't actually drink, as he Reflects on all of this.

this fucking guy is everywhere!!!

ohhhhh yes I would love to make that happen! and I'm completely sure there will be a chance soon, plus I can easily see her panicking and being her usual flight risk self and getting her ass into some kind of trouble that maybe he could get mixed up in... Wynonna and Kostya stuck in a cave-in in the mines with nothing to do but hash out their relationship fears

we gotta get levi to learn of wormy somehow. or just do more threads with the two of them hanging out.
kostya goes running regularly, doesn't he? levi should join him sometime

He does run a lot! Lately he's having a bit of a hard time with it bc he's pretty sick again, but he's stubbornly keeping it up. Maybe Levi could join him for a jog, help an old man out... and I can see Kostya openly telling him about his Alien Situation too, maybe even in the same thread? Gets all sick again and is like "okay there's something you should know,"

that sounds good to me!

i might try to put up a general log between xmas and new years when im off work, ill ping you if i do
