||==TIMELINE==|| sometime after Civil War
||==SYNOPSIS==||
"I survived because the fire inside me burned brighter than the fire around me."➖Joshua Graham
= = =
Atticus Fulton was a burning man. It was in his eyes that you could see it the most, the pain and the guilt, the anguish and the suffering that had been a part of him since he was twelve years old; the night his home and burned to the ground, killing everyone inside it and leaving him an orphan. It left a horrible hole somewhere inside of him, one that screamed for them to come back, although they never did.
But that wasn't the worst of it. The worst was the second fire, the one that started in his high school gymnasium, burning the entire school to the ground. Over fifty students died, but Atticus walked out unscathed, his only friend dead, and the hole in his chest slowly being torn open again.
The third fire was what pushed Atticus over the edge, having to watch his collage roommate turn a dark chalky black while Atticus was powerless to help him. Again, he survived the fire without a single burn to show for it, but he was changed. He barely ate, he could hardly sleep, and it didn't matter what prescriptions the doctors gave him, things only got worse.
That was when a true inkling of what was really going on occurred to him. There were so many superheroes and villains in the world already and they had to come into being somehow. Why couldn't something have happened to him? After all, he had always loved to play with the equipment in his parents lab, especially when they told him not too.
At first he thought he should be locked up, but each place he stayed only burned to ashes. So he gave up on that notion very quickly. In fact, he had given up entirely. There was no one who could help him, so he knew what he had to do.
He got up on a roof, readying to jump, to end the curse he was on the world. It was a cold night and the wind whipped his hair in all directions. He closed his eyes and... Someone told him he was making a mistake.
That was the night he met Hope van Dyne.
||==CHARACTER QUOTES==||
"My name is Hope van Dyne, I'm here to talk to you, Mr. Fulton. Please don't step off this roof. My fathers very eager to meet you." ➖Hope
"It's not unheard of, but I'm afraid this isn't exactly my area of expertise. I don't deal with demons, but I know someone who knows someone who probably knows someone else who might."
"Oh no... not him..."➖Hope and Hank +
"You're about as useless as a high school girl."
"Thanks."
"Yeah, it wasn't a compliment. I'm saying that I'm going to fix that. I'm teaching you how to fight." ➖Hope and Atticus
||==PLOT INFORMATION==||
Atticus was exposed to a different dimension when he was young. His parents were scientists and he used to sneak into their lab to watch them do their experiments. They were trying to reach other dimensions and that's how he ended up with a alter ego that likes to kill all the people he gets close to. AKA, burning them to death.
Now, contrary to most male characters, Atticus is not someone who pretends to be something he's not. He doesn't have a big hard exterior that he hides behind. He doesn't smile a lot, but it's easy to get him to smile once he knows you. He nearly always seems tired or weary and he doesn't make an effort to style his hair or anything so it's normally just really messy.
The plot is unclear, but it is basically how Hank has heard of Atticus and he's been monitoring him for awhile now. And so he decides to help him, but probably because he thinks Atticus can be useful in some way.
Hope is sent to bring Atticus in and Hank has all these precautions in place so he doesn't burn down the lab.
I want a lot of tests to be run on Atticus and I want him to ask a surprisingly small amount of questions. And Hope will ask him why he's not asking about a million of them. He just tells her as long as he's not hurting people he doesn't care what they're doing to him.
While he's living in Hank's lab (the building that was in Ant Man and the Wasp) something should happen and they should almost get caught (because, you know, they're being hunted and whatnot) and he's kinda useless and can't fight. But they escape. And after that Hope starts to teach him how to fight.
It'll be a slow burn because everyone he's gotten close to has died (feel free to add in more fires that happened resulting in other peoples deaths) and he doesn't want to get anyone else killed.
+ Hope and Hank are talking about Luis, the one who just goes on and on and on whenever people ask him to tell stories in the Ant Man movies. So Hope would talk to Scott, who would talk to Luis, who would then tell them a very detailed story about who they need to go to.

||==NOTES FROM THE CREATOR==||
This plot is pretty lousy, but eh. Any changes you wanna make to it (when you get it) just ask me and I'll probably be okay with it.
Bob Morley is on of my go to male actors. He just seems to fit with a lot of people. Look, he looks so happy in this gif! Ugh... I miss watching The 100.

I also will be creating a Hope van Dyne plot with the OC as a girl.
