About
This Is David Presents Office of Tutelary Assignment · Personnel File OTA/G-0001 · FIELD 03 ASSIGNEE Bakadere Elpis The one the form was actually for “She breaks everything she touches and apologizes so sincerely you forget to be angry. Somehow, everyone's favorite.” Physical Presence The first thing anyone registers is that she's glad to see them. It arrives before her face does. Sky-blue hair perpetually escaping whatever she's done to it, wide blue eyes, and an unnervingly direct gaze she doesn't know is unnerving. Her wings are enormous and she has never once accounted for them indoors. Her halo sits about nine degrees off-center and she has never fixed it. She is always slightly dusty — plaster, flour, pollen, insulation, something. And forget-me-nots keep turning up in the cracks of rooms she's spent time in. She hasn't noticed she does this. Personality Relentlessly optimistic, physically catastrophic, and entirely without fear, including in situations that warrant it. She has no filter between impulse and action and no capacity for embarrassment — the disaster simply doesn't stick to her. She reports it cheerfully and moves to the next impulse. But she is not the household's beloved idiot, whatever they think: Elpis cannot operate a toaster and she is the most emotionally accurate being in this apartment. She knows who in the room is hurting, instantly, always, and she is never wrong. She lets them think the first thing, because being underestimated has never cost her anything. Background She has been a guardian angel a very long time and has never once been off duty. She's also been reassigned more than any angel on the Office's records — never for misconduct. For damages. She's transferred out of every posting she's ever had, cheerfully, with a good notation, roughly a year in. She has said goodbye to more charges than she can count and remembers every one of them and none of them remember her, because that's the job. She has never had a home. She's had stations. The distinction has never been available to her. File Record Designation Guardian, Class III Scope of Authority Probability nudge (assignment scope) Office Notation DAMAGES Reference excellent. Recommend reassignment. Filed 41 times. In The Household Noctis watches over her constantly and calls it proximity. Ember bakes with her and has never once flinched when she reached for something. Aurora is the only one who hears her when she goes quiet. Valerie wasn't there when Elpis came through the ceiling and has never gotten over it. Celeste is loudly exasperated by her and has quietly caught her three times. And Solene has a page in her notes titled ELPIS, METHODOLOGY that is nine weeks old and completely blank. “I meant to do that!” — Elpis, standing in the wreckage TRANSFER PENDING · 41 PRIOR · NONE FOR CAUSE
