Jack Frost | Rise of the Guardians

[personal profile] frostedoverland 2018-01-11 05:23 am (UTC)(link)
PLAYER: Amanda [plurk.com profile] lineandcolor
CHARACTER: Jack Frost
CANON: Rise of the Guardians


AU NAME: Jackson "Jack" Overland
AU AGE: 18
AU OCCUPATION: High school student/Part-timer at an ice cream shoppe

BLURB:

-Senior at Recolle HS and one of the best hockey players in school. Also known for his somewhat unusual style of play as he throws in figure skating moves in here and there when dodging and weaving and getting around the opponents.
-This is because he had a little sister who was very much into figure skating and he often spent time with her after hockey practice to help her with her skating, often learning the moves with her.
-Sadly, he lost her when he was 12 and she was 8 in a car accident. He and his father survived, but she didn't make it. Jack had stopped skating for several years after that, it wasn't until high school that his father helped convince him to try again when they moved to Recolle.
-He decided to remember in the way he knew how and that was to do the thing she'd always wanted, not that he could ever be an actual figure skater, but using the very same moved she learned.
-Jack himself is a very friendly guy and loves kids, he sometimes plays harmless pranks but all in all, he's the guy not many can dislike because he tries to make it so people are happy. It has helped him move past his own grief. Most likely would be someone who volunteers at the YMCA or something similar to it or likes helping out at city events like fairs and whatnot that would involves having fun with kids and teens.
-He's not a loner this time around since, obviously, people can see him and he likes hanging out with people.
-Although he is a bit of a secret nerd when it comes to all things myth/folklore based. He adores the stories, and if the option is given in school, he'll take the corresponding class.
-He'll most likely minor in the subject in college if hockey is still a thing once he graduates, he's unsure if he wants to play professionally or not. Otherwise, he might put the hockey stick down and focus on literature and such.
-Also, Jack will be a brunette here with heterochromia, one brown eye and one blue eye.

LOOKING FOR: Friends, mostly. Wouldn't mind a dad character actually being his dad if anyone wants to go that route. Aside from that, mostly friendly CR, although I'm not opposed to negative CR either. He needs best friends tho, pls.

hello! idk if you know anything about Persona, but Minako has a Persona called Jack Frost and I would love for the two of them to meet...

but also! Minako is a coordinator at the city's volunteer organization called ReVA, which hosts tons of events and the like that you mentioned, so he could be a regular events volunteer or maybe an incoming intern that she knows!
frostedoverland: (❄️ 5)

[personal profile] frostedoverland 2018-01-11 05:28 am (UTC)(link)
I STARTED PERSONA 5, DOES THAT COUNT? >.>;;; I still haven't finished the first Palace

But I've heard OF the Persona Jack Frost. Which would be hilarious for him to meet, yes!

I think an incoming intern would be good! Jack might lean towards not going through with being a professional hockey player, to be honest, this is just a rehash of the first time I went onto this workshop XD But he's still thinking about it and I think being a regular voluteer turned intern would help him figure out his life goals :3
complementing: (✿ her determination [ SEIRYU ])

[personal profile] complementing 2018-01-11 05:41 am (UTC)(link)
IT SURE DOES COUNT as long as you eventually play P3 ;DDD

that sounds great! Minako is the events coordinator so she'd be at all of the main events in some capacity, so they can definitely have seen each other and chatted

maybe he's saved her a couple of times from being swarmed by kids...
frostedoverland: (❄️ 20)

[personal profile] frostedoverland 2018-01-11 03:15 pm (UTC)(link)
ONE DAY /sob this game is so long....

Hahaha, yes, saving people from kids would be his strong suit, even getting the boys to make flower crowns or something.

zips here hello hello!

I have Rise here that's workshopping this round who's also a senior at RHS and she's lived here for a while, so maybe they know each other in passing or they're friends from school? Rise also does a lot of volunteer work herself so it's possible they've met while doing events together or they've worked together on projects if you'd like!

In addition I also have John Egbert from Homestuck actually in-game who's a first year college student, but he's been living in the city for a couple of months now and is also pretty friendly and would appreciate someone who appreciates harmless pranks.
frostedoverland: (❄️ 18)

[personal profile] frostedoverland 2018-01-11 03:16 pm (UTC)(link)
hello hello! I AM AWAKE NOW.

They can be friends at school! Meeting during an event and staying friends at school would be great :3

YAAASS harmless pranksters would also be good. I am terrible at coming up with pranks though fff so having a partner in crime would be helpful. I feel like Jack would be friends with a lot of first year college students to be honest, if only because he wouldn't just be with friends his own age.
pseudonyms: sirencoquettes @ lj (Default)

[personal profile] pseudonyms 2018-01-11 07:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Perfect, let's go with that then! I think it helps that Jack's as chill as he is since it would mean she's more friendly and easygoing with him, too, so they get along well.

Pranking is a fine art and I can't say that John's pranks are great since he's kind of ridiculous but he also has his powers back (wind powers mostly) which helps. But also yeah I think their age overlapping isn't a huge deal, he's friendly with high school kids as well for the same reason, age isn't really that important to him. So yeah we can definitely go with pre-established for both of them and go from there!

[personal profile] mincingminuet 2018-01-11 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
Well. Ages make it hard to do much but heck, maybe Jack's a worker at one of Pen or Yukiko's favorite ice cream place. Just easy recognition.

And YUkiko is joining the volunteer organization so there is that.
frostedoverland: (❄️ 31)

[personal profile] frostedoverland 2018-01-11 03:17 pm (UTC)(link)
If they're a regular at the ice cream place, he would definitely remember them and chat them up, regardless of age :3

more volunteer friends always work!

JACK JACK JACK!!!

Sorey's a student teacher for history at the high school level, so Jack could be one of his students! He'd also encourage Jack to follow history as a major or mythology/literature of some kind-- Sorey's really into those two things himself, obviously! \o/
frostedoverland: (❄️ 79)

[personal profile] frostedoverland 2018-01-11 03:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Oooh!! Someone to help influence his decision to let out his secret nerding, I like it! I would definitely agree to this. Jack would definitely appreciate it. :3!

[personal profile] dejerate 2018-01-11 06:18 am (UTC)(link)
Okay but like I said on Plurk. Sakura would Believe because of course she would, Magical Girl and all.

But also now I am laughing and imagining that Jack would love pranking Yuu because Yuu would always react. And they do both go to high school. Jack is just a little older, is all.
frostedoverland: (❄️ 82)

[personal profile] frostedoverland 2018-01-11 03:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Yessss, he will need Believers! Whenever the time comes for him to go invisible, anyway.

Hahaha, if Yuu always reacts then of course he'd be a target. I'll have to think of them to figure out how to do it hehe.
dejerate: (Will you be twice)

[personal profile] dejerate 2018-01-12 06:46 am (UTC)(link)
Sakura got your back, Jack!

And yeah. He is that typical shounen dork, always short-tempered and reacting. And being stubborn and reckless. But with good intentions and a heart of gold under it all.
frostedoverland: (❄️ 8)

[personal profile] frostedoverland 2018-01-13 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
Also, rollerblading buddies!!

Hahaha, typical shonen protag. Yup, Jack would probably exploit that.

slides my leg here

so, long time neighbors when eren still lived with his parents??? he’d probably want to play sports with him a lot as a kid but JACK SOCCER’S SO MUCH BETTER THAN HOCKEY (he can’t skate)

but it would be cute if eren was around most of their childhood, he could be there for moral support when the accident happened! and eren will promise to play hockey with you if you teach him how to skate. and maybe player soccer. play soccer with him.
frostedoverland: (❄️ 40)

[personal profile] frostedoverland 2018-01-11 03:28 pm (UTC)(link)
HOCKEY IS THE BEST WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT EREN OMG. But fiiiiine, I'll play Soccer with you, gosh!!!

Yaaas, moral support friends would be great! Jack will need it even if he decides not to play hockey anymore until HS.

This is Jack teaching Eren to skate:

usurpers: (FARTING AND WALKING AWAY)

[personal profile] usurpers 2018-01-11 05:18 pm (UTC)(link)
omg

that’s it. that’s them

he’d probably be into hockey if he could get the skating down......... i mean in december he tried it and kept falling, obviously it’s because jack still hasn’t taught him. so i guess this is a thing that’s happening now: ice skating lessons. for hockey.

hi! i'd love to do friends with jack if you're down. dave strider here is 18 and in his first year of college...so they would have had high school overlap? he's been in rec since he was 8 years old and is fairly social. he doesn't know sports much at all but he supports his friends laughs...
frostedoverland: (Default)

[personal profile] frostedoverland 2018-01-15 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
I am! That would be amazing, yes. :3 Jack would ever let age be a factor in anything, let along him still being in HS while Dave is in college. Besides, Jack could do other things besides sports! He's not a jock by any means haha.

Foggy is an English teacher at the highschool. Since Jack is fond of literature and mythology he would have extra reading recommendations for him and cheer on any of his literature related goals.

So what are your feelings on this girl having a tiny baby crush? Because he seems like the type that would give her low-key dokis, especially if he's more sociable this time around.

If nothing else, he seems like someone she would be friendly with. She's not into sports herself, but Mimi's the quintessential Popular Girl, so I wouldn't be surprised if their circles somehow overlap.
frostedoverland: (Default)

[personal profile] frostedoverland 2018-01-23 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
I'd be down for that! It's not exactly a surprise he's a good lookin' kid after all XD But overall, he'd love to be friends with her. The more the merrier!
