Not much is known about the R&D Intern as of yet. They're a chaotic individual with violent tendencies who's interning at Goddard while completing a Masters Degree in chemistry. They go by 'Intern' at work and on twitter, and 'Val' just about everywhere else.

Their twitter is @GoddardRnD

## Bio

Mx. 'Val' [Intern] Minyard goes by they/she pronouns, and is and intern for the Goddard Futuristics R&D department. She started the R&D Twitter mostly as an excuse to check social media on the job, but after Jerry Singh (the department head) made her say "boomer is a slur," they started putting most official R&D announcements in very formal language or in quotation marks, and let her own opinions be casual. They refuse to put their name of the account, enjoying their anonymity.

Shortly before creating the R&D twitter, there was a prank war at Goddard Futuristics. In an effort to get [Intern] to participate and secure their victory (knowing full well that they would have no qualms causing grievous bodily harm and/or murdering other employees under the right circumstances), Jerry lied and told [Intern] it was a company wide event and part of their job. [Intern] devised a prank that won, but killed a lot of people. But "all is fair in love and prank war."

After a talk with Cecilé, it was brought to [Intern]'s attention that the prank war was not company-wide, and there was no waiver or contract that would've made everyone a part of it. They were not pleased with being lied to, and punched Jerry. They were suspended for two days.

During their suspension, they:

* Dyed their hair green
* Decided to "Research and Develop clothing for skinks"
* Broke their personal coffee machine
* Met Seraphine and Ari through a callout tweet
* Introduced everyone to Medusa
* Decided to "Research and Develop vampires"

As well as continued developing their friendship with Cecilé and catching the attention of Seraphine.

Their first day back from suspension they brought Medusa to work with them. Jerry called them feral, but stayed away for a while. [Intern] assumed he's afraid of snakes. Later he made an unsavory "It's Halloween already?" joke about their appearance, which they didn't appreciate. Seraphine offered to kill him and when [Intern] politely declined, she recommended going for the eyes. Ari offered to punch him. [Intern] managed to refrain from punching him again, but barely.

Seraphine also offered them a job at her company. They were very intrigued by the offer, but didn't accept. They're not the kind of person good things just happen to, they were more than a little suspicious.

The next day, they chatted with Cecilé about the idea of "researching and developing talking to animals" and they came up with a joking plan to kill Jerry, steal his job, and eventually take over Goddard Futuristics together.

Eventually they revealed that they're severely overworked but don't really mind it. They have their life down to a science, and honestly don't enjoy downtime much. Their sleep patterns are questionable, though.

They complained about Jerry for another day or so, and wished Cecilé luck in talking to Mr. Cutter later. When their friend came back different, they were disappointed. It was then that Eli and Seraphine warned them about Special Projects. Their warnings didn't seem to affect them much, however. They're still determined to figure out what exactly they're doing up there and how they changed Cecilé, though they may work with a bit of caution, now.

The next day, [Intern] tried to get Jerry to tell them about Special Projects, but he just got annoyed and said 'you'll find out soon enough,' and tried to insult them by calling them 'Beetlejuice,' but it had the opposite effect.

Later that day, there was a security breach somewhere in the company that ended up with the whole place on lockdown overnight. [Intern] was pissed, because that meant they couldn't go home. Cecilé gave them a way to sneak out through a vent in lab 7, but instead they got into a fight with Jerry, and Seraphine left poisoned food for Ari and [Intern] to feed him.

Jerry died later that day. [Intern] stabbed him a few times just to make sure, then staged a chemical accident with his corpse in lab 5. They then met Jerry's 11 year old child, though even then [Intern] seemed to show no remorse for the murder of their father.

[Intern] finally got to go home after that, though they expressed interest in doing another murder soon.

## Appearance

[Intern] has neon green hair and brown eyes. Their hair is worn with a deep undercut. They often wear it in a ponytail just to keep it out of the way.

They keep the ends of their eyebrows shaved so they're tiny, and wear what is generally called "e-girl" makeup. They also are regularly covered in bandages from various accidents.

They have multiple piercings in both ears, but no facial piercings (yet).

## Personality

[Intern] is a snarky asshole with no respect for authority, and they will not give respect unless they're given some in return. They seem to have a broken moral compass, if they even have one, and show no remorse when they injure and/or kill anyone. They frequently refer to knives as "people openers" and take great joy in being called "a bastard and a menace to society." They don't seem to truly care about anyone or anything besides themselves and their pets. They despise being lied to and will commit assault over it.

They have a history of being considered dangerous, and seem to almost take pride in that.

## Pets

The R&D Intern has 5 pets currently:

Tiamat - A Dragon Skink

Nidhogg - A Blue-tongue

Jörmungandr - An Axolotl

Leviathan - An Axolotl

Medusa - A Green tree Python

## Relationships

### Cecilé

Known to [Intern] only as [Redacted], Cecilé was the first person [Intern] interacted with on twitter. Despite Cecilé's hatred of R&D, they seem to get along pretty well, aside from the occasional spat about the ethics of what they do in R&D. Cecilé has expressed deep interest in all of [Intern]'s pets, which they find exciting because a lot of people are afraid of them. They've also discussed overthrowing the company together and have...kind of flirted a little bit. Cecilé even offered to pull strings in finance to get them a raise so they could buy skink clothing. If that's not true love, what is? They both have similar brands of chaos, though Cecilé seems to have a slightly stronger moral compass. But, Cecilé came the closest to being considered a friend by [Intern] than anyone has in a very long time (though they would never admit it if you asked.)

### Seraphine

Affectionately called "the hot french lady" by [Intern], Seraphine is the first person in a very long time to come close to intimidating [Intern]. They can't even tell you why--but something about her confidence and flirtatious nature makes [Intern] just a little weak. She called them "a feral delight" once and they're still not over it. Seraphine has supported many of their more violent endeavors, and after only a few days offered to save them from Goddard, though they have yet to accept the offer. [Intern] isn't sure what to make of her. She doesn't trust people that seem to do good out of the kindness of their hearts, especially not when it comes to them. They'd love the chance to get to know Seraphine and figure her out.

### Elijah Rao

Elijah is the first person that [Intern] can remember to call them a good person. Not that they blame anyone for thinking otherwise, they certainly don't consider themselves good, but despite that, having someone call them good touched them in a way they didn't think was possible. They're not sure what to make of them either--Eli is either incredibly stupid or just naive. But some small part of them hopes Eli's opinion doesn't change. If they were a different person, they might consider Eli a friend.

### Arietta Browne

Ari is a fellow R&D employee at Goddard Futuristics. [Intern] talks to him on occasion, and he's one of the few, if not the only, R&D employees that [Intern] can stand to interact with for more than a few minutes. They almost escaped the lockdown together, but instead they murdered Jerry and framed an accident. [Intern] doesn't think this needs to change their dynamic in any way. What's a little bit of homicide between coworkers?

### Jerry Singh

This is for Jerry you big fat white nasty smelling fat bitch why you took me on some motherf\*ckin suspension with your trifflin dirty white boomer ass you big fat bitch oompa loompa body ass bitch I'm coming up there and I'm gonna beat the f\*ck out of you bitch and don't even call the police today cause I'm gonna come up there unexpected and wait on your motherfuckin ass bitch im coming to beat the f\*ck out of you bitch

Jerry antagonized [Intern] to no end. [Intern] gave him shit right back. He ended up 6 feet under because of it. They feel no remorse, just anger that they couldn't make it more painful.

## Trivia

* They have a BS in chemistry with a minor in Animal Science, and are going for their Masters in Chemistry as well
* Acids are their chemical specialty but any way of weaponizing their degree holds their interest
