Suddenly, a distraction!

[odditycollector]

It's a bit too soon for more silly questions, I think, but I desperately need a side project. So!

Give me a character I know, and I will tell you which of the Endless they belong to.

A responsible meme-doer would now list the eligible fandoms, but we're talking about me here. So, usual rules: if you give me a character I don't know, I'll just ask you for another one.

Vril Dox II imagines himself Destiny's creature. No, sorry, that's not correct. Vril Dox II imagines himself Destiny's *enemy*.

He can see, or he thinks he can see, who he is supposed to be, what he is supposed to accomplish. And he fights against it. Any setbacks (caused by his actions in the first place, but nevermind that) can only be temporary. For he is smarter, more willful, more spiteful than Destiny, and he will not be bowed to Destiny's will.

But Destiny doesn't care. It's all written in his book too, with as great emphasis as the desperate fluttering of a small owlet moth that has lighted on fly paper. A dandelion seed resisting gravity.

One time, in a bar, Vril meets another Coluan expatriate, who surprises Vril by recognizing him but not being at all afraid. Of course, the other Coluan's obviously been away from the homeworld for some time; he's off-puttingly quick to find amusement in Vril's words, and seems to fill more space than he should. But under that, he still has the manner of a scientist.

He lends Vril a secret: that there's no difference between embracing and fighting your fate. There is no winning (nor losing, no endgame scenarios at all) and the only way out is to let go.

But Vril has no interest in other people's opinions.

Oh, of course he does. XD

And aww, Destruction! It's a lost cause, though. XD
