gladio amicitia ( final fantasy xv )

[customcup]

PLAYER: Javid who is phone tagging this forgive me
CHARACTER: Gladiolus "Gladio" Amicitia
CANON: Final Fantasy XV

AU NAME: n/a his name is just stupid please make fun of it
AU AGE: 23 (same as majority of game)
AU OCCUPATION: line cook at a ramen shop (his secret shame is he still prefers cup noodle)
BLURB: so gladio came to recolle for school originally on an athletic scholarship for college boxing. like his family is from europe and rich but hes basically been fending for himself financially since he was a teen so now hes graduated with a bachelors in english and has no idea or game plan for it... so now he works at a restaurant and barely makes enough to pay rent. the millenial experience
LOOKING FOR: people he mightve known at university, roommates or former roommates if possible because he could use the help LOL, uhh idk ppl he might know from frequently going to the gym??? sorry if this is barebones i have a full app on his journal with everything listed im just at an airport rn

[judgementkazzy]

Kiryu here is around the same age, loves ramen and could have shared some classes with him in university??

Do you need to find a cheaper place to live, he works real estate, he'll hook you up buddy

[customcup]

oh god please kiryu GIVE HIM THE HOOK UP!!!!!!!!

maybe kiryu shows up at the shop sometimes and gladio gets to talking w him about?? life?? since they recognize each other from classes and then kiryu is like i can probably find u a cheaper shoebox to live in

??????????

[judgementkazzy]

YESSSss let's do it, he will find you a nicer place okay??? it won't even be that sketchy (and if it is you can come complaining to him lbr)

[complementing]

HELLO Minako is a ramen lover so she could definitely be a frequent visitor to the shop...otherwise she goes to the gym often to kickbox with her boyfriend and/or work out on her own so maybe they've seen each other around?

[customcup]

ahhh yes gladio frequents the gym.... between the two places he could be like wow what a familiar presence, they could def recognize each other! maybe even one time if they run into each other at the gym he could be like hey i know u from such and such ramen place

have you ever like met someone out in the wild that worked at a place that you frequent and they recognize you its so fucking weird, thats what this is

[complementing]

that's exactly it laughs she's also a university student so they might've seen each other on campus as well o/

[activatingcombatmode]

GYM BUDDIES? TEAM SQUAT??

[customcup]

HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!! he could always use gym buddies

[activatingcombatmode]

YES. Gym buddies it is! This is dream CR come true to be honest. These two are so alike hahaha

He'll probably harp on Gladio to get a real job lmao

Re: gladio amicitia ( final fantasy xv )

[mincingminuet]

I can offer a former college connection that he probably sees at the gym often enough. Penelo (AU Penelope) is pretty easygoing and probably also frequents the ramen shop. She's 22, about to graduate, and is probably totally nonplussed by dealing with someone as big and buff as he is despite being 5'2" and scrawny.

[customcup]

god shes so small.... im sorry for gladio inevitably picking on her, hes the worst

hes literally over a foot taller than her ksjnfdkjsg hes 6'6"

whats her major 👀

[mincingminuet]

Tiny but ferocious, okay?

She's a computer science major, really focused on software engineering!

Re: gladio amicitia ( final fantasy xv )

[kittycaterer]

Will ping this when I caaaan ahhhhhhhhhhhhh

[customcup]

i mean weve been au workshopping for a month now 👀

[originallutece]

javid give me this cr please

let ros and gladio be those european rich people
maybe they knew each other distantly???
also she could have known him from teaching university
i mean she taught science, but whatever, they could have run into each other, everyone's gotta take a science class at some point

[customcup]

god maybe they couldve known each other distantly but also gladios dads thing was basically teaching his kids to be independent and not rely on family money so gladio is "rich" but not "rich" yfm
but they still couldve known of each other, somehow... im imagining teen gladio being a fucking nightmare of a child meanwhile ros was like, super talented and already has a fucking doctorate in her twenties, gladios dad just like..... why arent you more like the luteces kid

and then yeah they meet again in recolle u and gladios just like WHY do i have to take a lab class despite being an english major and WHY does it have to be taught by einsteins second coming
gladios not dumb but hes not book smart LMAO hed probably be memorable solely from desperately struggling in her class not to get kicked off the boxing team for poor grades

[originallutece]

ros is ten years older so she's the perfect age to be "WHY CAN'T YOU BE MORE LIKE HER"

but god absolutely
she really resents him at first b/c g o d she isn't patient if people don't have talent (not a good quality in a teacher) but at least he's not hideously disruptive? he tries? he's got like a D- but by god he's trying

[amities]

but will recolle gladio have a greater respect for wearing shirts in public tell me javid this is Important Information

[customcup]

i mean he wears shirts MORE often definitely but theyre straight out of avengers era chris evans' wardrobe
i.e. way too small for him, and he knows it

but he is still one of those guys who the second it hits like 78F his shirt is fucking off his body and around his shoulders

god someone just murder him please

[originallutece]

hey



that's an important public service he's doing
let the man live

[customcup]

DOES IGNIS STILL WEAR PURPLE LEOPARD PRINT WITH THE SLEEVES ROLLED UP AND LEATHER GLOVES OR DOES HE GO WITH THE PINSTRIPE WHITE SHIRT PINSTRIPE WHITE SUSPENDERS FANNY PACK LOOK

ASKING FOR A FRIEND

[amities]

ITS NOT A FANNY PACK FUCK YOU

this is his new everyday outfit

[maidhem]

Athletic scholarship, you say? Felicia here is also attending school on an athletic scholarship, and she works at one of the local gyms so money isn't so tight. She's got some experience in the martial arts, so they probably ran into eachother on that route.

[customcup]

oh hell yeah! that sounds awesome, yeah gladios graduated recently but hes still trying to keep up on boxing he just doesnt... have matches anymore... but they probably ran into each other at some point! what sport is she doing at school? martial arts?
