**Tatiana Slozhno** is a main character from Spies are Forever. She is played by Mary Kate Whiles.

## Description

Tatiana Slozhno is a former KGB assassin, and former private contractor. She is originally from Russia, though had to flee after she could not take her position as an assassin anymore.

## Personality

Having been inspired by the Bond Girl and Femme Fatale tropes seen in most popular spy media, Tatiana shares much of her initially seen personality with the architypes. She acts mysterious, direct, and vaguely flirtatiously in order to get what she wants. Despite this, she is not opposed to using physical force to deal with others, showing a fair amount of strength when she does, likely stemming from her KGB assassin training.

As Agent Mega start to get to know Tatiana, this facade begins to fade, as she reveals herself to be a lot less aligned with a typical examples of the architypes in reality. She can often be jovial and prone to similar styles of humorous speech to Curt, but is still very direct. When provoked or opposed, she has been shown to yell and loose her cool, and be more heartfelt and empathetic when close to someone, going against many of the common traits of her fellow female leads in spy media.

## Biography

### Before the Musical

Tatiana was born sometime c. 1945 to her unnamed parents in post WWII Soviet Russia. At age 4 she was taken into custody by the KGB and trained in combat to be an assassin. After 9 years of training, at only age 13, she had proven to already be one of the deadliest Soviet assassins in Russia, killing people without emotion.

After some time, as either a teenager or young adult, the constant killing became too much for her to handle, and she was forced to flee the country, leaving her family behind and avoiding all contact to protect them from harm.

### Act 1 -

#### Loading Dock, Budapest, Hungary - 1961

Though it is unclear if Tatiana was working for Von Nazi at this point, or if he started to use the surveillance system to blackmail her after, she would first be introduced to the musical during the Hydrogen Bomb arms deal between the Deadliest Man Alive and Sergio. In the middle of the of this deal, the pair would be interrupted by both Curt and Tatiana, both intending to take the H Bomb from him. Owen, recognizing Mega, attempts to take his gun to shoot him, but is unable to before it is unloaded, forcing him to run off, and promise that he wasn't done with him yet. After a quick fight with Tatiana, Curt is only able to get away with the location of the casino she is staying at, with her walking away with the bomb.

Heading back to the American Secret Service HQ in America with a failure on his hands, Agent Mega is immediately scolded by the the Director of A.S.S., Cynthia, for letting the bomb get into the hands of a Russian while their still in the Cold War. After a briefing on DMA, the World Peace Gala, how he shouldn't be drinking anymore and her disappointment in his 4 year hiatus, she eventually hypes up Curt to go to the Casino where Tatiana is staying to get more information on her motives and who she works for.

#### Richman's Casino, Monte Carlo, Monaco - the Following Evening

Tatiana, given the task to bring Agent Mega up to her hotel room where DMA and Von Nazi wait, changes her tone to be far more flirtatious in the hopes to get him to bring down his defenses, unaware of his homosexuality. Once he meets up with Tatiana, he attempts a similar tactic, but is met with a string of events putting him in a poor light. Nonetheless, Tatiana eventually brings Curt up to her room with her. After some begrudged flirting between the pair, Tatiana reveals she is not from the Russian government, rather, an independent contractor, and says she will lead him to the bomb.

Before she is able to open the door, she apologizes, and it is revealed to Agent Mega that she is working with the Deadliest Man Alive, as well as Dr. Baron Von Nazi. The pair reveal to Mega that they now hold the power of a worldwide surveillance network, but quickly being shot down when DMA tries to continue due to his boredom of the topic. Baron then explains his plan to get control over the New Democratic Republics of Old Socialist Prussian Slaviscia by ransoming off their capital city, as well as their heavily disliked ruler, Prince Toygle Feurgin for power at the World Peace Gala. Von Nazi orders Tatiana to ready the bomb for transport and DMA to kill Mega, before leaving to go eat a cheese burger.

As Agent Mega is tortured, Tatiana realizes that von Nazi intends to keep her working for him for the foreseeable future, and not wanting to be a part of their plan, Tatiana take the bomb for herself. Right before DMA can finish off Mega, Tatiana comes rushing in and knocks him unconscious with a pistol-whip. She tells Agent Mega to get out of there with her, but despite the circumstances, Curt refuses any form of help, but eventually gets himself to follow her. Tatiana proceeds to say something that reminds him of Owen, giving him a flash back, and making him hesitate long enough for the Deadliest Man to wake up and shoot him in the side.  Tatiana quickly leaves Barb to help Curt, and flees the scene.

### Act 2 -

#### The World Peace Gala, Geneva Switzerland- the Next evening

Having been seemingly watching the the events of the gala from the start, Tatiana only makes an appearance at the very end. After Curt tells the whole gala about DMA and Von Nazi's plan, an action that prompts DMA to shoot the prince dead on the spot as a plan B, she rushes in to save Curt and yell at him to stop crying. She decides on bringing him to his safe house while they figure out where to go next and wait for things to cool down.

#### Curt's Mom's Safe House, Guadalupe - One Day Later

    One day after the incident in Geneva, Curt and Tatiana take some time to cool off at a safe house that Curt's mom lives in. Though she is somewhat overbearing to the pair, insistent that they are dating, Tatiana is still appreciative of her, saying that she reminds her of her own mother back home in Russia. Eventually Mega is able to shoo off his mother so she can make new fake passports for the pair. This gets Tatiana to talk about her own family and past. After she shares her history with the KGB and why she was working for DMA and Von Nazi, Tatiana prompts Curt to similarly open up, having noticed his apprehensiveness towards working with others. Mega, seemingly more comfortable with her, shares his fears of never being the spy he once was and fears having to work with other after loosing Owen. She tells him that all he can do is move on and trust those around him.

Curt, misunderstanding Tatiana saying "maybe you'll find a new partner" due to his past experience, and noticing her touching his hand to comfort him, assumes her to be flirting. Unsure what else to do, he uncomfortably starts to flirt back, saying that, the relationship is meant to happen due to them both being spies, and not seeing her shared discomfort as she flirts back. After an uncomfortable kiss, Tatiana stops Agent Mega, finally accepting she's not interested. Curt to begrudgingly admits to her that he's not attracted to women, which she is quick to be accepting of. The pair happily accept their relationship is purely platonic on both sides.

#### New Democratic Republics of Old Socialist Prussian Slaviscia - The Next Day

A day later, Agent Mega and Tatiana head to a bar to meet up with the rest of the team. Without much of a plan, and very little in the way of supplies, they realize they will struggle to complete the mission as enemies of the state. Nonetheless, the group bond with some shots, and Curt breaks his few day long sobriety. After a night of drinking and becoming closer friends, the group head out to complete their mission.

In the Prussian War Room the next evening, with the Informant disguised as the Royal Notary, Baron is able to quickly enlist the help of the Prime Minister and the official with him, as well as get them to sign over the land for the "Nazi Capital" after the Deadliest Man reminds him to do so. Before they can move any further, DMA smells the smell of Mega off of the Informant, and informs Von Nazi, just as Mega and Tatiana barge in. As the Official and Prime Minister run off, DMA stabs Von Nazi in the back with a hunting knife, remarking that he no longer needs him, having only ever done it for the deed to the Prussian land.

    While Agent Mega tries to understand his motives, the Deadliest Man remarks that he's understood Mega since the start, removing his mask and revealing himself to be Agent Owen Carvour.  Owen taunts the group with the size of the current system and how they could never destroy it, and shooting the informant, and walking off, telling Tatiana not to "slip up". The Informant dies soon after while trying to say the name of the country they are in. Tatiana tells Agent Mega that she can go and destroy the system, siting that he needs to be the one to go after his former partner.
After Curt leaves, Tatiana gets on call with Barb, instructing her to look for an island in the Pacific the size of a compound with hundreds of computing systems. Barb, having already been researching the topic for her own project, is quick to find one, only to find the facility they are looking for. Tatiana, still in procession of the rocket shoe and Hydrogen Bomb, makes her way to the facility and blows it up after some help from Barb activating it.

### Epilogue-

After leaving the headquarters of the American Secret Service, Mega meets up with Tatiana for coffee, where she notes his coffee to be spiked with whisky, despite it being only 9 in the morning. She remarks that its good to see him taking care of himself, even after having to bury his ex-lover, and he tells her that she "knocked it out of the park" with her work blowing up the island facility. Mega tells Tatiana that he's likely going off the grid for some time, before giving her a set of fake passports for her and her family to use to leave Russia and start a new life.

## Relationships

### Agent Curt Mega

Curt Mega is one of Tatiana's friends

    Initially, Tatiana was an enemy of Curt, having stolen the H Bomb from him during the arms deal, and reluctantly leading him right into a trap set up by Von Nazi and Owen. She is quick to regret this upon finding out that she had been betrayed by them, and quickly swoops in to save Curt when she does.

The pair's relationship is initially meant to provoke the idea of a James Bond and a typical Bond Girl's relationship  seen in nearly every spy movie, where, because our male lead meets a woman on a mission, the audience is right to assume they will be romantically and/or sexually involved. This trope is carried over into the perception of Tatiana and Curt, where they both begin to assume that, their relationship is supposed to happen, not knowing the other is uninterested, and in Tatiana's case, not knowing Curt isn't attracted to women. This preconception of their relationship is carried on until kiss at the safe house, causing Tatiana to admit she is uninterested, and Curt to admit his sexuality.

Following this interaction, the pair are shown to be very close friends. Through Tatiana's friendship, Curt builds a healthier view on trust and feels more comfortable being around the people he cares about in life. Through Curt's, Tatiana is able to destroy any information the Russian government could use to find her, and be with her own family again.
