Out of Place: Season Two
samdarcy42 for Easterman
A gruff older man, a survivor of an apocalyptic scenario. Lifelong New Yorker. Bitter, fatalistic, and damaged. Esterman lives in a parallel timeline in which a strange new genetic mutation gives some humans incredibly powerful pheromones, that lead to a cult-like obsession. Esterman loses his daughter to one such mutated person.
Remorseful, pensive, melencholic.
It started out as celebrities. That’s how I think it did, anyway. I worked for the city, I didn’t know anything about it back then. My daughter was into all that. They would be these people everyone loved. Not, you know, pretty, or pop singers or stuff that usually made people famous.
They’d have these people who would follow them around, go state to state just to be around them. To me, it was just dumb. They looked normal. I mean, they were always tall and that sort of stretched-looking, even at the start, but other than that they looked like regular people. But everyone said photographs or the TV didn’t show it. You had to see one in person to get it. And once you had, you’d never forget it.
