Chapter Text
I've been wanting to draw a quick sketch to give people an idea of how Dr. Rosen looks like.
She's someone who cares a lot about her job and her patients, she's just old as hell and been through a lot so she Does Not Care in general. She was a heavy smoker some time before the Quiet Rapture, and picked up vaping some time after (the vape was actually prescribed to her by a different doctor). She's one of those people that when you hear someone talk about her you're like "Wait, she's still alive?"

Also, dear Reader, I could use your help: What should Simon's last name be? Taube or Laikov?
Taube ("tow-buh") is German for "dove." Doves, of course, mean peace and the holy spirit, but there is also the dove that brings Noah the olive branch after the flood, a message from God that its over. Second chances, new beginnings, a desire for peace (that he may or may not get)- i like this name for Simon.
However, a lot of people like to compare Simon to Laika the dog. I've even come across a fic where Laika is his last name, and i like the idea, so I was thinking maybe going with Laikov instead of Taube. Not as much symbolism, but i do like how Simon Laikov sounds.
I might not go with the popular vote (assuming enough people do vote), I just need help figuring out what to use since I do need to decide on it for the next chapter of the main fic
