"Wait, let me get this straight. I'm supposed to describe my personality?" Daeho asked in disbelief.
James raised a brow at him. "Is that a problem?"
"O-Of course not! There is no problem here whatsoever. no problem here sir!" daeho quickly stammered.
"Then please proceed, we still have a lot more of this interview to go through and i don't have all day."
"m-my apologies! uh, well then, I guess i would say that i'm playful. During a time like this, i had to entertain myself somehow. Plus, I strongly believe that making jokes by myself helped me avoid depression. Depression is a scary thing. It makes you unproductive in a time where so much must be done just to live on a day-to-day basis. You have to liven it up a bit, you know? Mess around, be goofy, do things that make you happy. my dad would always say that he liked my earnest attitude towards almost everything i did," daeho laughed, as he began to relax. "No one likes everything they do, But yeah, I'm a pretty earnest guy. I don't give my anyone close to me any bs, THOUGH I GUESS THAT'S NOT SAYING MUCH. ANYWAYS, my dad also used to say that I was good-natured, and good looking. i'm a pretty friendly guy. I guess i just find it easy to talk to people. I like to think of myself as a pretty open person. i don't know really knowing i'm saying at this point, but everyone deserves to be given a chance, don't you think? Everyone and everthing deserve a chance at something new. I don't really like to waste anything so I try to be as resourceful as possible. everything has a purpose, even if it seems useless. One just has to be smart enough to find its use. it doesn't have to be conventional. YOu just have to be adaptable and go with the flow. You do realize that's the only reason why evolution was possible. Animals couldn't have evolved if they weren't trying so hard to survive. They strived to survive and they got they're adaptations. I mean just look at a giraffe! do you think giraffes always had those ridulously long necks? no! They gradually changed in order to survive. The world is survival of the fittest. being adaptable is what allowed me to appear before you. Well, that and being intelligent. Contrary to what a lot of the team may think, i actually did teach myself everything I could with the materials my dad left behind. I may have not seemed like it, but I actually liked science. I studied an incredible amount about science just to educate myself. I also may or may not have read the entire text book for fun, but don't tell anyone. I don't anyone thinking I'm a nerd. Promise?"
"uh, sure. why not?"
"Thanks, anyways, as i was saying, in order to survive the world as it is now, you have to get a little creative. since we can't do things as easily as we used to, we have to come up with new idea and new inventions. we can't stay the same if we want to be able to live through this red war. WE have to be a little unothodox, even if it seems pointless or scary. Because being normal will get you killed and I'd rather live to see tomorrow. I don't always do things that are conventional and am I proud of it? hell yeah i am! I'm alive because of it. it doesn't have to look normal, it just has to work. My friends always said I was weird and that I didn't fit normal standards, but look where it got me. WEll, to be fair they said I was crafty not that i wasn't normal. I can't say that I'm proud of some of my achievements since some of them had to do with let's just say, not the most honest of methods. But nevertheless, I was able to accomplish my goals using various procedures."
"mhmm, okay mr. perfect," teased james expressionlessly, "do you have any downfalls or are you a sweet baby angel?"
"ha ha, very funny, sir," Daeho deadpanned. "But unfortunately i am no angel. I will admit that I am very hesistant when it comes to anything. Especially when my dad failed to come home on day, I suddenly became alone with no one else to talk to or bounce ideas off of. imagine it! a 7-year-old left alone in this red, cruel world. Can you blame me for hesistating over every little thing? Honestly, when my dad didn't return home, i knew what had happened to him and I instantly became fearful. I thought to myself, 'how am i going to survive now?' but i learned to get over that thought. Who am i kidding though? I'm still scared. I'm so ing terrified if i'm being completely honest. I couldn't rely on anyone else other than myself to survive for 10 ing years," daeho whispered loudly as his body began to shake. "I had just found out that i had powers, but i didn't know how to control them. I was afraid of going outside into that red rain, i was afraid of the darkiarchs lurking outside my home, and i was afraid of myself. As i grew older, I because self-conscious of myself. I was younger than most people i've seen around, which in all honesty is not a whole lot of people. I had been living alone for several years. I'm an orphan. It's a miracle that i've lived this long by myself, but with no one to really converse with all these years, I feared that i'd become disconnected. And then I saw others with abilities, but they were all older than me by a few years. I didn't want to be treated like a child simply because of my age. Personally, living ten years by myself in this red war is good enough for me. Others may call me passive, but I'm just trying to live long enough to be able to drink alcohol. I'm not really the kind to go out of my way to project my ideas and opinions onto other people or try to persuade them into seeing the world through my eyes. I guess you could say that i'm more of a herbivore rather than a carnivore. I can't say that i'm the most aggresive of people. However, I do like stirring up a little trouble every now and then. My dad would always get made at me for being mischievous. Dad was so stiff that it made living with him a little tense. I created a little trouble by pulling pranks here and there just to see him smile, get angry, etc. Anything really. I just wanted to pull some emotioni out of him. sometimes, i did get carried away and was a became a bit too flamboyant. But can you blame me? The world is so dreary and depressing. You have to brighten it up with a little pizazz, you feel me? If i accomplished something I set out to do, I would celebrate. How else would living here be tolerable?"
background —
"This may be a sensitive topic, but it is very much necessary. Please tell me about your background."
(2028-2035) The dad, the Child, and the mom that the child would never meet
"I don't think my past is too tragic compared to the rest of the team, but I was born into the midst of the red war. I don't know a world besides this one. I can't say that I miss the 'good ol' days' because as far as I can remember is living in fear of the acidic rain that dyes the earth red. My mom died giving birth to me, so i never met her. It was my dad who took care of me. He did his best to educate me about the ways of the world as it is. He was a pretty good dad, but he one day he didn't come home. I knew enough to guess what had happened to him, he had made sure of that. my last living family member became a darkiarch as you call them."
"I'm sorry to hear that daeho," apologized james, "I'm sure it must've been very difficult for you."
(2036-2039) The child left behind in the midst of a War
"Don't worry about it. I expect that to be common, but yeah," Daeho sighed heavily, "It was incredibly hard. I was so young and still very much inexperienced about the world. i knew the basics, but that was it. I quickly realized that if I wanted to survive, I would have to first study my off. I had limited supplies and supplies are difficult to aquire in this world. Thankfully, I had my ability to help me along the way. To be honest, my ability was my saving grace. I didn't have to worry about fresh water, and I was able to grow my own crops within my shelter. But it was still difficult. I was an only 7-year-old child who barely knew about my abilities. My dad had left a journal detailing everything he did and thought on a day-to-day basis in case he would fall victim to the darkiarchs. that Journal explained everything from how to do farm to his observations concerning my ability in simple terms. My dad left me alone in this world, but he did not leave me feeling abandoned which is something I'll forever be grateful for. Still, Those first three years after my dad's disappearance were full of studying and practicing my ability. using my ability was so draining and I didn't know how to control it. I lived in fear of the Darkiarchs breaking down my door and coming for me, and I lived in fear of my powers. I could've easily blown up my shelter with a single mistake. Could you imagine what it was like to be a 7-year-old who was afraid of himself? I had no one to talk to to get a second opinion on things. I never knew if I was doing things right or if I was leading myself to death. I was haunted by the idea of my dad coming back for me as a darkiarch. I couldn't sleep, and on the rare occasion that I did fall asleep, I would wake up in a cold sweat and screaming."

"How did you overcome all that?"
(2040) The child who faced death AND WANTED TO DO IT AGAIN
"Simple, I had to face my fears. After those three years, I was finally able to use my ability numerous times without feeling completely drained. I had also experimented with my ability to see what I could and couldn't do with it. After that, I finally took my first steps into the red rain as I manipulated the red to a safe distance around me. I also moved The rain that puddled on the ground to protect my feet. I felt like a god. around me the rain poured, but it never touched me. Doing all of this required a significant amount of concentration at the time, given the amount of time i had practiced, but it was incredible progress. Now that I knew what I was capable of, I adventured outside of my shelter for the the very time. I went around gathering whatever I could from what was left in the stores. I was able to gather more supplies, but I got careless, and some darkiarchs spotted me. They began chasing me so I started running as fast as I could. Left, right, right again, i never let my feet stop moving. It was terrifying. Can you picture that?" Daeho laughed, "12-year-old me running for his life because he got careless. I was going to end up like my dad if not for my ability. I opened up a hole in the earth and let them drop inside it before closing it back up. Then I ran back into my shelter. as soon as I closed the door, I fell to my knees. my knees were shaking that bad, but I had this huge smile on my face. WHy? Because I had faced death and escaped it. I felt incredibile. That one escape boosted my confidence and opened up so many opportunities for me. You can imagine that i went out often after that incident, killing the countless darkiarchs that chased me."

"That sounds quite bold for a 12-year-old. what happened to being hesistant and fearful?" inquired James.
(2041-PRESENT day) The child who became an escape artist
"Oh it was terrifying for sure. I would always hesitate right before I left the shelter, but when I remembered the exhilarating feeling of running for my life, my fear would leave me. After the first few trips, I began tinkering. I started making tools that would assist me in my escapes. I also began using my abilitites to create smoke screens, illusions, etc. I didn't realize how easy it was to bend light in order to create illusions. Once you know how to do it, it's honestly so funny to watch the results. I was able to walk out of my house without having to worry about being seen or getting hit by the red rain. I felt like I could finally live a 'normal' life, the kind of life that people enjoyed before the red war. and it was . . . peaceful and pleasant. I continued living life easier than most people. I grew my own crops, created fresh water, and studied the mountain of books my dad left behind. But as you may have guessed, I spent most of my time walking around what's left of the city. On rare occasions, I found others not yet affected by the Darkiarch virus, as you guys call it. I would usually produce some water from them, grow a potato or something, and or guide them to a safe location away from most darkiarchs. it was very rare, but it was something that reminded me that I wasn't alone yet. In exchange for my services, I had them tell me what they had seen, experienced, and what they did to survive through the war. some of them would tell me stories of life before the war, which never ceased to amaze me. However, I would usually encounter darkiarchs. They would always chase after me, but I always fought from a safe distance to protect myself against the virus. My favorite place to hang out was on rooftops, which is when you guys decided to approach me. now, I'm here."

questions, answers.
questions prepared by: james miller
questions prepared by: james miller
what do you think about your team?
"honestly? I'm actually a bit uncomfortable with them. Everyone is at least a few years older than me, and I feel like every one of them sees me a little kid. don't get me wrong, they all seem incredibly capable and stuff, but i'm here for a reason you know? I don't want them to underestimate me just because of my age. Oh, but megaera is super cool! I mean she's half cyborg, how cool is that?"
what can you contribute to the group?
Daeho smirks, "I can cook for starters. BUt I can also provide an unlimited supply of fresh water and crops, and any necessary illusions if the team wants to sneak into the queen's ship."
can you give me a scenario that you can solve? or finish?
"easy. Say there is a horde of darkiarchs with guns and they're bombarding the team with shots, by manipulating the wind, I can redirect all the bullets right back at them. Either that, or i can just open up the ground right underneath them, and then close it back up."
do you have intel about the queen or anything important about her and her army?
"i don't really know much about the queen other than the fact that she really likes the color purple."
have you met the queen in person?
"I'm not sure if you could say that i met her, but i have gotten really close to her. One time, i went to the mall to get some more hoodies when i heard a loud crash. I froze and created the illusion that I wasn't there by manipulating the light. I also kept my scent close to my body just in case. I kept myself afloat by strengthening the air right underneath me. When i went to go and see what created the noise, i saw the queen. she was collecting anything and everything that was purple. She suddenly met my eyes and gave me a creepy smile before waving at me. As soon as she waved, I bolted. I ran as fast as i could back to my shelter. can you imagine how terrifying that is?" daeho shivered.
why are you joining the new avengers initiative?
Daeho paused and waited a moment before responding. "That—I don't really know. in all honesty, i' m more of a runner than a fighter, but someone special to me said that i had the chance to change the world, so why wouldn't i? besides, that person deserves the world, so before giving it to them, i have to save it."
Are you willing to sacrifice your life for the safety of the rest of team?
"Yeah."
"That was a quick reply," noted james. "Any reason for that?"
daeho shrugged, "Everyone else on the team seems to know exactly what to do with their lives. it seems like a waste if one of died in the place of someone like me, who doesn't strive for anything and lives a meaningless life." then his eyes widen, "on second thought, I have someone waiting for me. so yeah, i'd be willing to take the bullet for the team, but there is no way i'm dying. if i did, that person would rush to my side and heal me only to kill me themselves." He laughed and smiled fondly.
If you succeed with mission, what would you do afterward?
Daeho looks down at his hands which have plants sprouting in one and water floating and circulating in the other. "I guess i would be leading the charge for agriculture. Just providing the necessary materials and stuff that everyone needs to start over again. If i didn't, i feel like i would be being selfish with this power of mine. I want to set people up for success like my dad did for me," he finishes with a small smile that doesn't seem to reach his eyes.
You seem to enjoy listening to stories about life before the war. what is the one thing you want to do the most if you could go back to that time?
Daeho smiles shyly and rubs the back of his neck, "I kinda want to experience going to school. You know, walking to class with friends, socializing, studying with other kids my age, and going on small dates on campus."
James laughs and shakes his head. "Trust me, school isn't all that exciting."
"honestly? I'm actually a bit uncomfortable with them. Everyone is at least a few years older than me, and I feel like every one of them sees me a little kid. don't get me wrong, they all seem incredibly capable and stuff, but i'm here for a reason you know? I don't want them to underestimate me just because of my age. Oh, but megaera is super cool! I mean she's half cyborg, how cool is that?"
what can you contribute to the group?
Daeho smirks, "I can cook for starters. BUt I can also provide an unlimited supply of fresh water and crops, and any necessary illusions if the team wants to sneak into the queen's ship."
can you give me a scenario that you can solve? or finish?
"easy. Say there is a horde of darkiarchs with guns and they're bombarding the team with shots, by manipulating the wind, I can redirect all the bullets right back at them. Either that, or i can just open up the ground right underneath them, and then close it back up."
do you have intel about the queen or anything important about her and her army?
"i don't really know much about the queen other than the fact that she really likes the color purple."
have you met the queen in person?
"I'm not sure if you could say that i met her, but i have gotten really close to her. One time, i went to the mall to get some more hoodies when i heard a loud crash. I froze and created the illusion that I wasn't there by manipulating the light. I also kept my scent close to my body just in case. I kept myself afloat by strengthening the air right underneath me. When i went to go and see what created the noise, i saw the queen. she was collecting anything and everything that was purple. She suddenly met my eyes and gave me a creepy smile before waving at me. As soon as she waved, I bolted. I ran as fast as i could back to my shelter. can you imagine how terrifying that is?" daeho shivered.
why are you joining the new avengers initiative?
Daeho paused and waited a moment before responding. "That—I don't really know. in all honesty, i' m more of a runner than a fighter, but someone special to me said that i had the chance to change the world, so why wouldn't i? besides, that person deserves the world, so before giving it to them, i have to save it."
Are you willing to sacrifice your life for the safety of the rest of team?
"Yeah."
"That was a quick reply," noted james. "Any reason for that?"
daeho shrugged, "Everyone else on the team seems to know exactly what to do with their lives. it seems like a waste if one of died in the place of someone like me, who doesn't strive for anything and lives a meaningless life." then his eyes widen, "on second thought, I have someone waiting for me. so yeah, i'd be willing to take the bullet for the team, but there is no way i'm dying. if i did, that person would rush to my side and heal me only to kill me themselves." He laughed and smiled fondly.
