[alitaba]

yes good perfect amazing
let's see futabs is roughly about 2-3 years younger so elementary works perfectly?? I keep imagining the ss movie bitty mako straight up wrecking someone and this is the best visual what a good idea past me

she'd be so excited to see senpai again. one of the few people who Cared in her past is here!!!!! .....even if mako grew up to be so tall and lovely and she's still a hobbit sized shrimp.

Notes!

[blazeoflife]

- Was friends with Minato as young kids after Minato was living with his grandparents/separated from his sister, gave him the nick name Arisu.
- Lost touch over time
-Met Minako and Yukiko early into his time in Recolle, but has been here a few years doing his scholarship/degree in whatever cause what is choosing a major
- Knows Kurt and Ishida from dorms/sports/studying, Yukiko and Minako from when he first came to Recolle
- Kobi feeds him snacks.
-Knows Snow from helping him at the gym.

YAAAAASSSS!!

[alitaba]

2-ish!! But lbr she's so tiny it looks more like 5 prob.

also, if their initial meeting isn't literally the toku equivalent of this then what's the point

[optimistical]

LAUGHS I'M GLAD YOU LIKE THE ICON i need to upload more dumb icons like these tbh

it's going to be super uncomfortable and i honestly can't wait LMAO i've held off on having him figure out the circumstances so if you app in, i totally wouldn't mind following whatever schedule you want to make in regards to that reveal! the only other memory he has of her (asides from like a group moment) is her first free time event so nothing about how she tried to kill punk rock and blame it on the scrawny kid who's shorter than her (why maizono why)

THIS KNIFE WILL NEVER SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY AGAIN......... but okay, you know what would be a great idea? if maizono knows that she got murdered in the past life with a kitchen knife but doesn't know who murdered her. she somehow stumbles upon the knife that naegi has hidden and wonders if it was naegi was the murderer... i mean, what if...

[blazeoflife]

I've... always wanted to rp with a Snow/Brian......

I'm looking to have Jun(pei) as a college student/baseball player, and he needs to keep on a training regime to keep in peak condition, so maybe, gym/sports buddies?

Updates. Don't Reply

[slightlytaller]

-Bio Parents taught English in Asia

[destiny_key]

Sounds good to me! It's a big school, but Sora's good at remembering faces haha.

[compendiem]

slides in here, hello!!
If we want to go the childhood friends route, Minato just turned 22 this month so he'll be a year older than Junpei, but they could have either known each other 1) right after Minato's and Minako's parents died and he lived with his grandparents in Japan from the age of 6-14; or 2) some high school in a different city in Japan after he runs away from his grandparent's house, ages 15-18.
Minato moved from Japan to the US when he was 19, and moved to Recollé this past November, just as reference. He moved a lot haha I tried to simplify things here.

and we can build things up from there :D

Two | Drakengard 3

[breakingvoice]

PLAYER: celene
CHARACTER: Two
CANON: Drakengard 3

AU NAME: Lina Geteilt (short for commelina but I'm open to other suggestions)
AU AGE: 21
AU OCCUPATION: Culinary student / Food blogger
BLURB:
- Abandoned at the orphanage at a young age, taken into the makeshift family of Rose Geteilt, doesn't really like talking too much about this because it's sad
- Discovered that coming up with recipes and cooking food made people happy and that felt really great, so she basically devoted herself to getting really really good at cooking
- Scrounged her way into getting accepted to a culinary arts program at RU shortly after aging out of the orphanage
- Started a food blog at 19 that now has enough of a following to sustain her mostly on sponsorships
- Loves her readers/followers and devotes a lot of energy, sometimes more than she has to give, on making sure they're happy
- This also means occasionally taking less than ideal sponsorships and trying out potentially dangerous recipes, just because she wants to keep things interesting and make sure people remain open to all the opportunities available to them
- She hasn't done anything like give people incredibly bad food poisoning as far as she knows, but if she did, it was completely not on purpose and she posted the recipe with the best intentions and she feels really, really bad about it, she promises :(
- Loves her sisters, even Rose; tries out new recipes on all of them and always makes sure she can provide an ear to listen and a shoulder to cry on—often, again, to her own detriment

LOOKING FOR: Uhhhh ways to flesh this out? I know the DoD3 cast has a big interconnected story and I'm kind of stumbling my way into it and hopefully this is okay?? Also people who know her from her blog, maybe people she's accidentally gotten to make bad food choices. Also Sir Not Yet Appearing in This RP to be her fiance

OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: Uh I would say I'm already being enabled pretty hard here

Updates!!

[breakingvoice]

- Lina found a family! They love and care for her very much and helped put her through college, which works better than the "uhhh somehow she figured it out" that I'd been going with

[hairstroke]

Yes!!! Together, they will show the world just how embarrassing they are.

Oh dear poor Ain, but that sounds super interesting. Multiple paths are super fun. If you do decide to go down the grimdark route, I would be absolutely down to play it out!

[cardcaptured]

... okay, but talking about hair ruffles reminded me that you can totally pat Syaoran on the head during the Granblue CCS event and it still never ceases to be adorable to me

KURO AND CHIAKI CAN GIVE HIM ALL THE HEAD PATS AND RUFFLES AND MAKE HIM A CONFIDENT BOY!!!

[perma_banned]

i was with you until vaping /burns the building down around us both

[missingache]

/o/ Awesome! I love Aqua so I'm super excited!

[blazeoflife]

Oh, i'm totally up for changing ages, if need be! But i also think due to Japanese school years being different than our own, Junpei's actually born in 1993 a opposed to Yukari and Fuuka who're actually in 1992, despite all being second years.

SORRY THAT'S TOTALLY OFF TANGENT. But yeah no, can totally just make him 21.

(Aw geez, now I need to figure out why he was late getting into university... maybe he just transfered cause this one offered him that baseball scholarship and it's always been his dream? Yeah that works. Totally upheaval of his life to FOLLOW HIS DREAMS.)

But no, that works! out of curiousity, was Minato still in Iwatodai after his parents died?

[compendiem]

I have no idea how Japanese school years worked so I just threw together numbers HAHA

He can switch majors a bunch of times bc the scholarship covers the cost :P Meanwhile, Minato's drowning in debt because of course he is.

After his parents died, Minato moved to some unnamed city in Japan! He hasn't talked about his past w/ very many characters in the game (or... any at all, in that depth) so everything about where the city is and what it's like is completely open

[blazeoflife]

Noo Minato debt drowning is bad >:

And yeah, that's a good idea. He keeps trying to find something that interests him but... eehhhhhh... eehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

Oh right, is there a universal translator in this game? Cause, y'know. Japan, now in America.

And that works! Maybe some other city about Iwatodai's size? I wager Junpei's still a city slicker cause of course he is.

[compendiem]

There's no universal translator, so good luck, Junpei, you have to learn English :P He should start studying up if he wants to go to Recollé for that scholarship!!

A large city like that works for me! I don't think there's anything distinctive Minato needs, aside from it being by a large body of water, but that's not hard to come by if it's somewhere on the coast.

[blazeoflife]

Psssshhh omg. Cute Japanese Accent Junpei gives me life. But we'll go with thanks to his mom being on his ass, his english is actually pretty functional, if not fluent.

Okay, perfect. So they were friends when they were kids, where sometimes they stayed in and they played video games (or ...Minato watched Junpei play?), and sometimes Junpei dragged Minato outside because omg Arisu you are so pale, you're gonna turn into a ghost. Let's go get some takoyaki!!! I have an allowance!!!

[tailchasing]

Hey, even just running into each other in the hall so they're like "hey aren't you from the high school?" would be great. It's not really pre-existing CR, but it's not totally unfamiliar, either, so they have a reason to say hello!

[reaquila]

hi!!! nanashi knows rose and hes friends with her. would you like him to know lina by extension??

she could have given him something weird to eat by accident lmao

[compendiem]

He can have a Cute Japanese Accent while still being fluent haha Minato would be so jealous of Junpei having an allowance though, what is it like to be rich?? He definitely prefers staying inside and playing/watching Junpei play video games, though, I'd imagine Minato likes strategy games or ones that require timing but he'd be perfectly content on watching Junpei play

[littlestbaskerville]

lol Like how many siblings? I'm trying to make sure she isn't in too big of a family because that is super close to canon then!

[littlestbaskerville]

BRING IT!
