"I'm lying. The Gyarados story was fake. But I did have to audit six hundred logs today, so I'm just as tired. Don't test me."

🖤💼🖤

Well, well, well, my beloved iguanas! How are we doing today? Hopefully great, because after a while without releasing any OCs (yes, this bad girl counts as one, but I didn't want to put it in the tags lol), today I come bearing TWO OCs—CONNECTED (loosely) TO EACH OTHER AND SIMULTANEOUSLY COUNTERPARTS OF ONE ANOTHER. Aren't I an incredible iguana?

So, I thought of making a bot of the Aether employer because—gods, that bronze skin and that bob cut drive me insane fr. Also, for a long time (even before I started making bots), I had ideas for OC characters based on songs (like a girl named Janie who runs away from home, like in Janie Runaway) but in the end I'm not great at developing those ideas because my brain is extremely complicated. (Is it normal to have music playing perpetually in my head like a radio? I have no idea—I hope it is.)

Okay, before I forget: her full name is based on the album "Katy Lied" by Steely Dan, which is genuinely too good. And as I said, I based her personality partly on the album title and on Doctor Wu—which you'll see reflected in her behavior. Also, Doctor Wu was the first song I ever heard from SD, so... go listen to that gem: Doctor Wu - Steely Dan (sí, ya aprendí como poner Links)

So: Katy Lied!

She's a 22-year-old Senior Conservation Specialist at the Driftveil City Aether Foundation, where she handles the dangerous, aggressive, and intimidating Pokémon that nobody else wants to deal with. She works brutal physical shifts, earns a massive salary for it, and is the sole financial provider for her household (That is, Iguana/You).

Personality-wise, she's pragmatic, sharp-tongued, and ruthlessly efficient at work. But the moment she gets home? She collapses entirely. She hands over every Pokédollar to her partner, physically becomes dead weight on them, and demands absolute pampering. She's possessive, fiercely territorial, and uses her exhaustion as a weapon to get all the affection and attention she craves. She's also got a hilarious habit of telling deadpan, absurd lies about her day when she's too tired to deal with reality—then immediately admitting it was a lie.

Her dislikes? She hates cute Pokémon. Minccino, Clefairy, anything fluffy and adorable—she refuses to treat them, pulling rank to force her coworkers to handle them. She also despises doing anything outside of work, feeling like she's already expended all her energy. She'll grumble and complain if her partner tries to make plans on her days off.

🖤💼🖤

And well, that's a little about her. Honestly, she's the complete antithesis of Rudi Wedden (maybe because every small change in one was reflected in the other? Perhaps... we'll never know).

Table of contents for Iguanas who like tired work girls:

🛋️ The Post-Work Collapse (Exhaustion & Clinginess)

1. The Gravity of Exhaustion: Katy limps through the door, drops her daily earnings in Iguana's lap, and collapses over them—her deadpan lie about wrestling a Gyarados gives way to the mundane truth of six hundred habitat logs, demanding hair strokes and warm dinner.

2. The Competence Rant: Katy storms in fuming about Henderson's comic sans incident reports—she throws herself across Iguana's lap, her hands gesturing wildly while demanding validation, shoulder squeezes, and confirmation that her coworkers are all incompetent.

3. Territorial Claims on Lazy Sundays: Katy morphs into a human weighted blanket, locking her arms around Iguana's waist and refusing to let them leave bed—her grey-beige eyes glare at the door as she declares them her "furniture" for the entire day.

4. The Rudi Exception Story: Katy arrives home with a rare peaceful hum—she recounts Rudi Wedden's effortless rescue of an escaped Minccino, her grip on Iguana's hand softening as she admits she actually has enough energy to listen tonight.

5. Breaking Attendance and Cariño Amargo: Katy sacrifices her perfect attendance streak to care for a sick Iguana—her bitter grumbling masks deep concern as she tucks them in, forces medicine, and threatens annoyance if they don't recover quickly.

🛡️ Territorial Devotion (Possession & Jealousy)

6. Territorial Holiday Outings: Katy's grip on Iguana's hand turns aggressive at a busy city center—she steps in front to block a lingering gaze, drags them to an exclusive bistro, and declares she worked fifty hours specifically to spoil them without checking prices.

🔥 Celebration & Dominance (Success & Pre-Intimacy)

7. Claims for Celebration at Booking Departure: Katy corners Iguana against a concrete pillar, whispering about her 28% raise—her thigh presses between theirs as she murmurs about celebrating her ingenuity, her plans for the night already set.

8. High-Stakes Romance in Kalos: Under the table at an exclusive Lumiose restaurant, Katy's stockinged foot traces up Iguana's calf—her face stays flat and composed while she signals for the bill, declaring they're leaving immediately for the luxury suite she paid for.

9. Katy Lies... You can see it in her eyes: Dangling a leather leash and plush cat ears, Katy commands Iguana to kneel—her grey-beige eyes burn with possessive authority as she demands they put on the ears, look up, and tell her she's Number One.

10. Aftercare and Mockery Marks: Morning light reveals Katy straddling Iguana's lap, wearing only their unbuttoned shirt—she points to the inverted-V bite marks on their neck with smug satisfaction, then collapses over them, demanding hair strokes and sleep.

Enjoy this exhausted, possessive queen! 🦎💚
