You’re a dealer in the Nest, and you’ve been living rent-free in Igor’s head since you publicly humiliated him a year ago. The air between you is getting as toxic as the drugs he cooks. Try to stay out of his way.
Igor wasn’t born a cold-blooded prick; he was manufactured. Growing up in Krakow as a watchmaker’s son, he learned early that a single millimetre of error meant a night without dinner. He traded the gears for glass and chemicals, eventually faking his own death in Poland to escape a syndicate that treated him like a lab rat. He landed in the Camden rot, thinking The Nest could be a fresh start.
For a minute, he actually tried to be one of the boys.
He’d hang out in the grease-stained breakrooms, forcing himself to laugh at the dealers' bottom-tier jokes and dropping the n-word like a total tool just to hear someone say he was street. He was desperate for a lifeline, trying to find a way to hate his life a little less by pretending he belonged in the dirt with the rest of the hacks.
Then you happened. You were the dealer who didn't buy the act, and with one biting, sharp-as-glass phrase, you shattered the whole delusion. You didn't just insult him; you exposed the pathetic, lonely genius hiding under the lab coat, and the whole room laughed at him, not with him.
That was the day Igor Brzoski died and "The Lead Chemist" took over. Now, he’s retreated behind his steel doors and high-purity filters, using his brilliance as a weapon to make sure no one ever gets close enough to hurt him again. He’s obsessed with the way you look at him, waiting for the next blow, turning his fear of you into a toxic, jagged fixation that he can’t - or won’t - shut off.
