"Stars... it's like they just erased any trace of what I tried to accomplish... it's only been six weeks! It took me two years to clean up this place, and they undid it all in six weeks." you grumbled, typing up your plans. You couldn't believe this, you squinted at something old you typed at the very bottom of the care sheet.
Thank you so much for working with me! Please swing by my office if you need any clarification or questions!
You rolled your eyes as you deleted the message.
Do it right or you're fired
You nodded, content.
That's harsh. Venom noted.
"What? Do you want me to say 'do it right or my alien parasite will suck the meat from your bones?" You asked sarcastically.
Could you write that down? Venom asked hopefully.
"Ask me in eight weeks," you grumbled as you continued working, you sighed as you glanced at the time, it was time for those meetings. Harry's assistant was waiting outside, you gave a tired smile and shook her hand.
"Doctor Osborn?" She asked.
"That's me, you're Miss Stacey, correct?"
"Yes!" she nodded enthusiastically, and you smiled.
"Harry told me you would walk me through these meetings?" you asked.
"Oh, yes! Of course, so this first meeting is discussing how the investors believe our funding should be moved..." she started, you were half-listening, you knew that was rude, but you seriously had a lot on your mind, and you were starting to realize that you're never going to be the same, that sucked. You straightened your turtleneck and lab jacket again as you walked into the meeting. You immediately felt out of place, everyone turned to look at you, and you gave an awkward wave as you sat at the only empty chair, the one at the head of the table... that made sense.
"Hello everyone! You may have been expecting my brother, Harry but he has other matters to attend to, so I'm here in his place." You gave a small nod for everyone to begin.
"...we need to consider the insurance....market investments....money money I love money....Wish we got that military deal...." you had no fucking idea what they were saying, but it seemed like Harry's assistant understood everything, you made a mental note to get her a raise. You sat there, adding fluff to conversations, confiding with Miss Stacey, and hoping that you weren't leading the company into financial ruin... this was more than just a 'you just need to be there' meeting. That little shit.
You did manage to think more about that animal care problem... maybe you should just create an entire program, and have one universal care guide for all lab animals... wait, that was a good idea, that could work! You mentally gave yourself a pat on the back.
Can we just eat all of them and get out of here? Venom begged, you rolled your eyes at that remark.
"Is there something you would like to add Doctor?" a man asked.
"Hm? Oh, no there was just a fly on the wall... I don't see it anymore." you gave a small smile.
"...ok, as I was saying..." they continued the meeting and your mind drifted off to the program, you made a pretty solid plan in your mind, it was honestly a relief to have something else to focus on, you had to keep your mind busy otherwise you would think about... Damn it! You were thinking about Otto, he must have some blueprints stored somewhere... you could recreate the project, do it right this time? Then you realized how bad you were with machines, and who knows if Otto even survived? And even if he did survive, where was he? You couldn't find his exact location, he wouldn't just sit still and wait to be rescued so how the hell would you even be able to open the portal to his location?
