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.
lowgrip: (17)

[personal profile] lowgrip 2018-01-11 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
Yessss

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

Hello!

Derek is a CSI and is also 25. What age did Nicolai drop out of school? They might have been classmates at one point. Also, When did he enter the orphanage? Derek was there from November 1997- November 1999 until he got adopted.
lowgrip: (06)

[personal profile] lowgrip 2018-01-11 06:45 am (UTC)(link)
Ohhh, CSI! Niles probably will have done MORE robberies/muggings/bar fights than anything, but he's probably needed to be investigated before whoops.

I'd say he was about??? 16 when he dropped out? He got his licence and said 'fuck this place, I'm out', and he's been an orphan since he was about five, probably, having been dropped off by his mother in '98, so they could have very well met then!

Already talked about, but he will be the person to patch him up and maybe feed him hot spicy food when Nicolai is needing some free food!
lowgrip: (03)

[personal profile] lowgrip 2018-01-11 06:47 am (UTC)(link)
Yes feed him the spicee

He is a poor poor man who will never say no to it, honestly. And in return he will fight anyone for you. Even if you don't ask him to. Even if you ask him NOT to.

foeyay: (two raunchy commentators)

[personal profile] foeyay 2018-01-11 06:04 am (UTC)(link)
Kamui is absolutely the type to get into a fight with a drunk stranger and then ask to ride said stranger's awesome motorcycle afterward like they're besties. That's basically how he's made half of his friends up til now. He also fanboys strong people who pay attention to him because HE'S TOTALLY GOING TO KEEP GETTING STRONGER AND KICK THEIR ASSES NEXT TIME, JUST YOU WAIT.

He's been to juvie himself but managed to stay in school because he loves his mommy and doesn't want to make her cry. Now he's started running his own internet business designing and crafting custom blades, so he could have asked Nicolai for help with getting materials a few times.
lowgrip: (03)

[personal profile] lowgrip 2018-01-11 06:50 am (UTC)(link)
That is very fair. Niles would probably do it too, honestly. One of the few things in life that he likes is his bike...

Don't worry though Kamui, you will definitely eventually get stronger than Niles. The fact that you stayed in school is a testament to that, nevermind physical strength ffff

I'm not sure how this will work, but Felicia has a habit of meeting weird people. How does Niles feel about a super peppy health nut of a jock?
lowgrip: (17)

YAH~

[personal profile] lowgrip 2018-01-12 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sure he'll be extraordinarily annoyed! But honestly that's the best kind of thing, isn't it? Since he is the EXACT opposite of that. An unhealthy, depressed lush who is probably punk???????

scythegun: (DECISION ⇝ you're totally fucked)

[personal profile] scythegun 2018-01-11 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
If Niles needs a current or past job, he's welcome to come work for Jaeger! Jaeger runs a curio shop called "Leviathan's Claw" but since he can't pronounce it properly everyone just calls the place "Jaeger's". It's been open for around three years, so it could be a past employment opportunity if you've already got something lined up for Niles! Jaeger's in general very Shady, so I feel like he would get along with Niles even if this doesn't work!
lowgrip: (17)

[personal profile] lowgrip 2018-01-12 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
He'll probably need a couple of jobs, honestly! He only works under-the-table and for as long as he's not bored HONESTLY. Not the best employee, but good at what he does if he can focus on it.

Fred here is a cop if you want to have some run-ins with him!

But also on the flip side, Fred used to volunteer at the orphanage when he was in the military! He's about 8 years older than Niles, so I think Niles would have been close to aging out when he did so?
lowgrip: (04)

[personal profile] lowgrip 2018-01-12 04:53 am (UTC)(link)
yES ABSOLUTELY I DO!

He could have certainly been around to see this terrible trash child while he was still in the orphanage. Niles probably would have given him a hard time, like he gave everyone...

[personal profile] thisloveisjustice 2018-01-12 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
Soooo like Majima and Derek, Tatsuo was in the orphanage. He's 31 now, so he aged out in '04 when Nicolai would have been 11? I think. Tatsuo would still drop by the orphanage after he went to college though, to check on the kids. But he can't necessarily keep track of everyone?

He's also now a CSI with the RPD crime lab and has a motorcycle
lowgrip: (make me your Maria)

[personal profile] lowgrip 2018-01-19 11:08 am (UTC)(link)
Nice bike, wanna race???? Too bad if not, it's race time FUZZ. I'm cool with any and every kind of recognizing him. Or not recognizing him, which he'd get offended by

[personal profile] floret 2018-01-17 07:26 am (UTC)(link)
Well Jamie here is a mostly straitlaced college kid, except he smokes hella weed (responsibly) and has no issues palling around with delinquents...
He rides a moped, is that rock n roll?? (Maybe he met / will meet Nicolai when it gets busted somehow??) idk, he doesn't go to bars (cause he's not 21 yet) but they could be friends!!

blessmefather: Matt with a neutral expression. (Default)

[personal profile] blessmefather 2018-01-19 10:49 am (UTC)(link)
Where's that list of orphans who were at the Recolle Oprhanage when you need it?

Matt is 32/33 or so and was around during the time Derek was at the orphanage so I'm guessing they were both there at the same time for several years until Nicolai left.

He works as an assistant district attorney, meaning he's one of the prosecutors that gets called up and asked about pressing charges when Nicolai gets dragged in to the precinct for being naughty. If you'd like we can say some of Nicolai's cases have crossed Matt's desk before. Please try harder to turn your life around so you don't get sent to jail again!
