Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald | Bungou Stray Dogs

[moneyfight]

PLAYER: Ruri.
CHARACTER: Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald.
CANON: Bungou Stray Dogs.

AU NAME: Not decided yet.
AU AGE: 32 years old.
AU OCCUPATION:
BLURB:

+ Owns his own to-be-determined business -- maybe a casino; actually probably a casino.
+ But he is a very hands-on boss that is completely out of touch with his staff. (Think Michael Scott in The Office. I just like a very enthusiastic team leading moment on a casino floor.)
+ He does very well in business and stocks, but just absolutely fails in exuding any sort of common sense.
+ Despite that, he can be quite ruthless about those that attempt to cheat his precious casino.
+ His casino is the one that's connected to pretty shady places. People don't necessarily disappear, but they do learn not to cheat (*ominous music in the background*)
+ Outside of that, he's married to his wife and very much in love with her. Buys her whatever that she would like! Sometimes, that puts the casino in some trouble -- so he works people a little more in order to make up for it. He's not a very nice boss to work for, but the people working for him are in some sort of situation where they can't easily escape (old debts that he's paid off, inability to work for more up-and-up places, etc).
+ He considers himself helping them out -- and why even though he's cringe-positive at them, they rather deal with that than when he actually wants to get more serious about his business. Because in those situations, he becomes more than a little cold-hearted.

LOOKING FOR: Friends, Enemies, Coworkers, etc. etc. etc.
OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: It's this or Gouto-douji.

[ohrlyeh]

[wanders into casino] wow this place SUCKS

[moneyfight]

somebody got off on the RUDE side of the bed this morning~

also. reminds me of when fitz was gonna try to buy howard to write horror stories for his wife. do you wanna do that once more?

[ohrlyeh]

yeah, i definitely want that! howard will eventually give in and do the stories for the cash, but will probably be petty enough to make the villain of some of them these rich arrogant capitalist types fff

[moneyfight]

this sounds familiar................ he says, but his wife loves it so it probably is fine. what a good writer he has on staff. let him tell him about parkour.

[ohrlyeh]

fitzgerald do you think howard has parkoured a day in his LIFE

writes about fitzgerald parkouring into the ocean never to be seen again

[moneyfight]

PARKOUR IS LIFE

just think of fitz doing poor tumbles around and saying, "parkour" or paying someone to help him get up somewhere and being, "parkour." either one, really.

[ohrlyeh]

howard sweeping up fitzgerald on his feet and them dumping him unceremoniously in the dumpster

"parkour" says howard, deadpan

[moneyfight]

the only parkour that matters.

[thesettingsun]

perfect AU concept, I can't believe I have something I'd prefer over gouto but this is it

also I feel like some of shuji's former classmates from the first two times he tried college now work at fitz's casino to deal with their [ominous thunder] student loans

[moneyfight]

They're both pretty great people. Only one's an actually okay person while the other person is just okay garbage man trying to live.

Sure, that's fine.

[vitis]

FLAILS

unfortunately i can't offer you pre-established cr as john's known his face for a while (or.. else i can, and idk how that'd work), but!! just so you know he's probably going to lose a life if he sees fitz around

[moneyfight]

THAT HOW IT BE SOMETIMES

[imaginex]

/SLAMS FISTS ON THE TABLE

Damn it I'm not sure how we could swing pre-established CR but I am so here for all of this. IDK would Fitz have any dealings with other businesses? Not that casinos and jewelry really mix to my knowledge.

[moneyfight]

wait, i got it

his wife wants to just constantly be showered in jewelry. so he probably is a well-known customer name as someone who always buys big and ridiculous customized pieces??

[imaginex]

GOD YES I DIG IT

Papa Tohsaka occasionally talking about this one American who will just buy up the market and even Japanese markets are ready to appease him... and his wallet.

ngl I love the idea that Tohsaka has done enough business with Fitz that he's part of the reason he saw the appeal in an international market for his jewelry business. THANKS FITZGERALD???

[moneyfight]

FITZGERALD IS HERE FOR ALL INTERNATIONAL NEEDS!

flying to japan to be like, "i heard that your jewels were the best in the world and so i came here to see what they are like to make something special for my wife! she's the most beautiful and wonderful woman in the world. i love her so much. as you know, the webster dictionary describes marriage as a fusing of two metals with a hot torch. well, that's love for you! ah which jewels, let's get them all and make multiple items for her, huh? all women love tiaras."

as the aide is chasing after fitzgerald, translating for papa tohsaka and looking stressed like... this out of touch ridiculously rich and dumb american he's so sorry.

[imaginex]

FUND IT

Sakura would just try and gently remind Fitz that her father still exists and they still make splendid jewels, so keep dropping money in her papa's direction like you're allergic to money.

Sakura can't believe she has to fuckin network, SOMEONE PRAISE HER FOR THIS.

[moneyfight]

praise sakura that she has to deal with fitzgerald.

fitzgerald that gives her one two many finger-guns and leans up against things going,"how are you doing, youth..... would you like a tiara? it turns out my wife didn't like the tiara i gave her and the dog won't wear it."

[imaginex]

AMERICANS...

Well she supposes it's fine so long as he's not returning it. Guess she's got a tiara that easily costs over 200k...

Like Fitzgerald-san you could give that money to charity... C'mon man...

[moneyfight]

congrats on the tiara!

he could........ but like why??????????

[imaginex]

WOW??????????

Fine just give Sakura all your reject tiaras, she'll put better use to them

[moneyfight]

hooray!

shall he expect to see her in one when she comes to visit? maybe. "where's your visiting tiara? what about your eating brunch tiara? why doesn't my wife like themed tiara?"

[imaginex]

Fitz-san not everyone is so bored they need to eat their meals with tiaras.

... She'd probably do it anyway just to appease him.

WHEN SAKURA'S BEST QUALITIES WORK AGAINST HER.
