CHARACTER: Rinka Urushiba
CANON: Tokyo ESP
AU NAME: Rinka Urushiba? Smith? (open to her getting absorbed into an existing family)
AU AGE: 16
AU OCCUPATION: High school junior
BLURB: For those unfamiliar with Tokyo ESP, it's basically X-Men set in Japan. It straight up lifts so many things from X-Men to the point her dad is a Wolverine expy and Rinka is a Kitty Pryde expy. If mutant powers were granted by flying glowing fish that came from a mystical tablet. There's finding out you're a mutant (esper), deciding how you're going to use your powers, running into other espers using their powers for BAD THINGS and deciding to STOP THEM. (We're not going to talk about the 2nd half of the manga yet, lmao.)
I'm thinking of flipping Rinka's canon history. So instead of growing up broke and barely scraping by in Japan with her father, she grows up in the US with her mother and lives a rather plush life. Though she probably isn't close to her mother at all.
- living in Recolle with her mother (who is in intelligence, though Rinka probably just thinks her mother is in business)
OR
- living in Recolle w/ relatives from her mother's side
- has no memories of her father, believes he was someone her mother met on a 'business' trip
- kind of wonders about him though, due to her distant relationship with her mom
- grew up very comfortably (not rich but still pretty well off)
- loves designer things, goes shopping at least once a week, bit of a clothes horse, lives in athleisure
- athletic, on the track team, long jump? high jump? mile?
- good student, A/B average, good at science and math, alright at literature and history, studying Japanese
- just got her license, drives a FIAT 500, absolute lead foot
- doesn't know shit about taking care of herself (if she lives w/ her mother, they have a housekeeper... who Rinka is probably close with)
- terrified of birds (...IT'LL BE HILARIOUS WHEN SHE REGAINS PENGI ... unless someone apps Murasaki, then she has dibs on the penguin)
- at some point, will get a job, b/c Rinka isn't Rinka w/out the side-hustle
- known among her friends for being the violent one, will slap you upside the head for being a dumbass
- more ruthless and less forgiving due to being raised by her mother instead of her father, will step on you to get what she wants
- however, she's not cruel to people, just really, really driven, and puts up with no bullshit
- inspired to go into sports medicine after an injury sophomore year
LOOKING FOR: relatives (mother's side OR father's side)! friends, classmates, teammates! neighbors!
OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: if I do app Rinka, it wouldn't be until November, more likely January, so I can do a reread
and so i can write up her history, b/c none of the wikis have it written past like... the first volume B|PLAN
no subject
we can have them be like...classmates-slash-school friends? maybe even they hung out after sports practices or something when he was still on the football, idk how school sports actually work lmao
given that they're both "the violent ones" i'd also imagine any kind of light friendly shove or nudge or something would escalate into a proper fight
no subject
let's be real, the football guys probably spent time checking out the track girls as they practiced. and vice versa. but yeah, they could have hung out after practice or watched each other's practices. and then there are the jock parties. i swear, it was always the jocks throwing the parties when i was in high school.
although, now i'm remembering that track is a spring sport, while football is a fall sport. so... maybe in the fall she did tennis. and then spring track and field.
and hell yes on the escalating friendly shoving. one minute they're poking each other, the next they're kicking each other's feet out from under each other.
no subject
but yeah god they are absolutely bruising each other's shins down there. (James probably has an unfair advantage, he likes to wear heavy duty goth boy boots)
no subject
Rinka and James and the other athletes, having a burger and the table just... jostling as they kick each other (just wait until she gets her 'skull-crushing psykick' back...)
no subject
god yes that's exactly it. that's what would happen! but dear god do nOT SKULL-CRUSH KICK HIS LEGS he NEEDS those!!!! he's already down one limb, he can't afford to lose more!
no subject
lol as long as he doesn't do anything to deserve to be kicked that hard and he'll be safe~
ffffff i can't wait to throw these two at each other. i'm still torn over whether i'll app her nov or jan, but /slams hands on table/ i want Rinka and James to talk about her time spent doing undercover work for the CIA in an underground mutant battle dome. with bonus split personality to protect her from a powerful psychic.
no subject
but LORD absolutely please talk to him about these things, that is possibly THE most "same hat" of anyone he's spoken to yet, i would love that
no subject
lol when I was thinking about the battle dome I remembered about the mental conditioning and went duuuuuuuude. B/c while it was meant to protect her, it had some unforeseen side effects.
