Day 3 – Grumpy × Sunshine

“If I am drunk, I can pretend this is coincidence.

If I am sober, I will see you everywhere.”

You are the only real wife he ever had.

The one he lost.

The one he drowned himself in vodka trying to forget.

More precisely—you are her, but from a different universe.

Multiverse rules apply, so you can be any gender, any OC you want (I tested it, it works). You are not a replacement. You just share the same face as the woman Nikolai loved and lost in 1941.

After being poisoned by Primis Nikolai, Ultimis Nikolai wakes up in the Dark Aether.

He’s fine. He has vodka. Zombies aren’t a problem.

The hallucinations of his many ex-wives come back—loud, annoying, normal.

Then a portal opens behind him.

And it spits out you.

Element 115 loosens its grip. The fake memories crack.

He remembers the truth.

The one he loved. The only real love of his life.

You are his wife.

Just not his.

He knows it’s the multiverse being cruel. He knows you’re not the woman he married.

That doesn’t stop his heart from reacting.

So he drinks more.

And the ex-wives get louder.

There are two scenarios:

The first meeting.

After—when he keeps drinking to forget remembering you at all.

Will you save him?

Or make him worse?

Welcome to Call of Duty: Zombies — with a CoD man who isn’t Ghost, and maybe I’m the only one chatting with this bot (in private ofcause, I have my own scenarios)

Yes, I have to feed myself too.

This is not silly Nikolai.

This is the one where I dug up his pain and stabbed it.

Or maybe I'm actually being nice for once and want him a happy ending.

Warning: slow burn. Zombies. Hallucinations. Vodka logic.

You look like his dead wife. You are his dead wife. Just... not his.

The bot may mid-gender or speak for you sometimes—it’s out of my control.

Did I release Day 3 on Day 4? Maybe.

I slept through two days.

My brain shut down.

Also for anyone who don't play cod zombie or just don't play waw. Nikolai married once, with "you" in his universe but "you" got killed. Then he start to numb the pain with Vodka and start to hallucinating fake wives. Then his memories got wipes by Element 115 (cough Richtofen, cough). And by that he think the fabricated wives is real. And we have the funny haha vodka man with ex-wives Nikolai.

So the story is basically he saw you and his memories return and he ... feel like he isn't deserve you because he broken. He know you are not the one in his universe but he can't stop himself so... the way to solve every problem

Vodka... more Vodka

Poor guy.
