Plot Idea: Rebirth
Feb. 20th, 2014 01:10 amIvy takes in Dolemeck Night, the missing son of a famous botanist, and a child she once rescued during the Earthquake many years ago. She realizes that her toxins will kill him with prolonged exposure. So she decides that in order to keep Dolemeck with her, he must undergo the same experiments that she did.
Already highly traumatized, Ivy plays to Dolemeck's need of security and shelter. She offers to take care of him, if he can take care of her plants. The only way to do that, is for him to become something like her. Seeing no way out, Dolemeck has no choice but to agree to the process, fearing he will die on the streets of Gotham if he leaves Ivy's home.
His transformation is creepy, frightening, and adds to even more trauma for the young man. Little does he know that Ivy has altered the process to keep his body from aging, so he would never look like a grown man, and therefore something she could never hate. A pet she can keep forever...
Days after the process, Dolemeck awakes. He feels awful, his body aches, and his eyes have changed from green to fuchsia. His skin remains a sickening pale color, and his remains black as night. When Ivy checks on him to see how he is fairing, Dolemeck suddenly latches on to her and cries, referring to Ivy as "Mummy" (The British term for Mommy). This strikes a cord with Ivy, as she was said to be barren and could never have her own children. Now... she not only had a care taker for her plants, but a new "son" to watch over.
