To reserve a 2nd character you must have a pass for the previous month's AC with your first character. For a 3rd character, you must have a pass for the previous two months' AC for both of your characters. In addition, we do ask that the AC for the current month be met and filled into your AC comment by the time of your reserve. It must be full AC. This means you must have 20 comments between at least 2 and at most 4 threads and one memory regain listed for the current month's AC period.

I feel like their trauma venn diagram overlaps too much to miss out on some kind of interactions in the past, considering Yin's a native Recoll..ite? Recollian? REEEEEECOLLAAAAAAAA

okay that was bad.

It was bad in that "I swore really loudly then laughed a lot" way, which was fun, so I'm nto complaining.

Anyway, they definitely have enough in common that they need past interaction, and I want to say Bobby could've done at least one of her tattoos, maybe? I could also see them being friends, but your call!

I'm glad you got a kick out of it in the end!

Yin's prickly even with her friends so there's that, but she would try to be sensitive enough about any of Bobby's trauma if she knew about it. (well. as sensitive as Yin GETS.)

As for tattoo work, I'm game for that! Had a previous character in the game that did some of her work but there is a lot of ink work to choose from. A LOT.

Ha, it's cool, Bobby's prickly, too, in her dry way. She would probably know about the shooting! Not the relationship trauma, or well, not yet.

I feel obligated to say Bobby did the rose, if that's cool with you, lol. It seems... Vaguely ironic.

good because that sounds like Yin is bottom tier of people one should not open up to (because they then may expect reciprocation and she Cannot Have That)

And sure! the rose sounds like a good pick :D obviously the rest of the RWBY team's emblems aren't there in literal form, but roses are good because thorns, etc, so it's still AU appropriate for her.
