I HAVE SEVERAL WAYS WE CAN WORK THIS.

Mako is a cop.

Mako is also an orphan, who had a pretty rough time in the foster family system. There are sooooo many ways they could have met-- because he DOES have a bike in Recolle.

Ushimitsu Kiyoshiro | Kamisama no Iutoori Ni

[personal profile] lonelythings 2018-01-11 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
PLAYER: Tobyfs (again)
CHARACTER: Ushimitsu Kiyoshiro
CANON: Kamisama no Iutoori Ni (As the Gods Will 2)

AU NAME: Ushimitsu Kiyoshiro
AU AGE: 18
AU OCCUPATION: Nothing in mind right now, other than he's SUPPOSED to be a senior in high school but his attendance may be spotty, depending...

BLURB:
OKAY so I recently got too into this character and thought playing him in an AU game would be best because in canon his world revolves around a guy named Akashi and it'd be easier to play him at first not remembering Akashi--which will suck hardcore for Ushimitsu when he starts to remember him. UvU

I feel like the manga is obscure enough I'll put a little blurb: he's from a survival horror manga where high school students kill each other during childish games in order to get the powers from a god. Ushimitsu only cares about Akashi and wants him to be god because Akashi is kind and cool and will bring people back from the dead if he's god.

-- For added irony and shits and giggles, he will be the son of a pastor. His mom, an American, met his dad when she was working in Japan, but eventually they moved to America, again, for her work. His father preaches at a church all the meanwhile.

Ushimitsu really does not like being the son of the preacher.

-- If your character is religious and makes their way to his dad's church, you might see Ushimitsu there on a Sunday helping if his parents somehow guilt trip him into it.

-- Like in canon before he met Rokute, he will be a loner in high school who tries to keep to himself or act "normal" but even his practiced smiles are weird. He was/is bullied a lot in school.

-- In the AU, he will not have had a friend that changes him like he did with Rokute, but he does start to exercise and starts to become violent because it gets 100% sick of people picking on him. He usually does this outside of school, though. And lately he's been going to school less and less because what's the point of school!

-- He gets into fights quite easily, especially when he's in shadier areas of the city where people might not know him. Your character likes to fight to? Let's talk. B)

-- He really likes the stars and astronomy. If there's an observatory or planetarium he will go there a lot, or he will be found stargazing a lot.

This is about all the ideas I have!! Hit me up with any thoughts or CR you may want, negative or positive, or any ideas you may have! The only thing I should note is I don't think he should know anyone previous to living in the city, in order to keep him ~lonely~ throughout his life. (Maybe he was even home schooled as a child, which in part made him socially weird when he finally started to go to public school...)

LOOKING FOR: Just...people to get to know him. Positive or negative.
OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: This is the enable me!!

kirei kotomine | fate/

[personal profile] livingimpaired 2018-01-11 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
PLAYER: Ruri ([plurk.com profile] saltandburn).
CHARACTER: Kirei Kotomine.
CANON: Fate/Heaven's Feel.

AU NAME: Kei Shigaraki (surname flexible if someone actually wants to be related to him).
AU AGE: 37 years old.
AU OCCUPATION: Ramen shop owner/Back-Alley Doctor.
BLURB:
» Born in Japan, but moved to live Recollé in his mid-teens.
» His father opens up a ramen shop and does actually pretty well.
» Initially went to Recollé University to become a doctor and got in on a scholarship, but he didn't finish. His father grew ill during his internship and he dropped out to take care of both him and the shop.
» His father passed away and the shop completely came into his possession. The menu has drastically changed over the years to while the sign outside still reads "ramen", the only thing inside that is served is various different kinds of mapo tofu. (Ramen noddles are sometimes in it, so, it counts.)
» The shop has a $500 grand prize to anyone who can eat the super spice mapo tofu in under a half hour. If they can't do it, they have to pay $50.
» He is able to avoid becoming his twisted self and never touches on the darker parts of his nature. (Because as Fate/ has shown us... no matter the incarnation, he's always born lacking empathy and enjoying the suffering of others. Recollé is no different, but he avoids becoming fully twisted and warped.)
» Runs a back-alley clinic (both for those who can't afford it and those who are a little on the shady order and need some hush-hush medical work.)
» Yeah, he's still into martial arts but isn't as religious as he is in canon.
» Still a ridiculously tall man with dead eyes and a sardonic sense of humor, but he means mostly well (dead inside but not acknowledging the gaping blackness that is his soul).
» Still monologues. (So sorry, literally everyone).

LOOKING FOR:
» Family? Again, AU!Kirei isn't as much of a trashfire as his canon counterpart, but he is still kind of a trashfire. Still, I leave this option open.
» Friends? Children of friends? He's lived in Recollé almost his entire life.
» Regulars at his ramen shop?
» Clients for his back-alley clinic?
» Confidante? Who wouldn't want to be able to share stuff with someone who has the patience of a priest?

I LOVE MAKI HI

I have no idea how she could have friends with a crossdressing detective-wannabe girl though... Naoto's too srs bsns for ~show biz~.

Maybe not nuclear family (I've established Naoto as an only child in her AU) but cousins perhaps?

he is 100% not a nuisance and he will bring her coffee and possibly home baked goods as payment for keeping his secret tbh

no one needs to know

Shuji is Kara's neighbor, which means he probably was Karen's neighbor also! They're relatively close in age (he's 25 now) but he's been trying and failing at college for... a while.

Yessss

Niles is like the unsuccessful criminal version of Mako 8')

[personal profile] argone 2018-01-11 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
I can offer a late 20s professional (Post Doc researcher) as possible CR. Kara's pretty easygoing outside of work, perhaps super chill gym buddy or something. Possibly former roommate, maybe sometimes silent coffee partner.
complementing: (✿ dealt with all my cards [ FORTUNA ])

Odin Sphere is a great game, please watch an LP of it or something if you have the time...! But yes, I think a friendship between them would be super fun. Gwen is very sweet and kind under all of her formal speech and rich girl mannerisms, and she could dance for hours if she could, so she'd have no problem with helping Anna out

I have no idea how, but I would absolutely love CR with the two of them.

Rise's AU self is a little quiet and shy in person and instead of going her canonical idol route I went ballet with her, but it's possible she maybe either found Maki's videos online or they became internet friends somehow while not knowing each other IRL at first? I'm pretty open to anything , they're also fairly close in age so :|a

1) BAY-sel

2) mildly annoyed bc he thinks it makes him sound like a sheep meaning

3) he will find a way to lowkey massacre her name... just give him a few free attempts first

Yes for sure. Majima was fighting and doing crime consistently until right before he turned 21 when his adopted bro accidentally killed some people and then Majima got really depressed. Before that he'd have definitely kept in touch and wanted to fight all the time and then, you know, sadness.

He was doing some like cage match stuff until he got super strength back, but he was pretty quiet for a three year period until a year and like 9ish months ago when he got a host club and now he's like a Successful Business Man which is still weird to him.

Also he's bedazzled more than one eyepatch at this point so, you know, there's that.
