Hello there! Just noticed ya here :)

Al was a runaway when he initially came to recolle two years ago, might have been pretty quiet toward her before he got caught by the cops, then adopted. Do you think they might have met then?

He is trying hard to reform himself and wants to open up to people, be attached, caring and just a better person with a gradually increasing drive.

If he was out on the streets, then they probably did meet - even if he was quiet, she tried to make sure if there was stuff to share, he would have gotten some, too. Clothes, food, etc. She wouldn't even have pushed when it comes to 'where did you come from,' etc. If he didn't feel like sharing, especially if he wasn't trying to push around others who were in a similar situation, that would be okay.

Hey may not have gone to college right out of high school? Or something like that. If Touya can help with sorting through options, he will.

AND EMMA. EMMA IS RIGHT HERE.

He would be pretty touched by that, he might open up a bit and say that he was getting away from a bad foster family that treated him like dirt. Would probably be approachable afterward(or at least Al wouldn't ignore her)

He would try to return the favour by using his pickpocketing talents to help them along then probably use some excuse or other to keep giving her "extra" money he stole(he is a big softie on the inside, doesn't necessarily admit it).

If she asks why does he know pickpocketing, he would probably give some weak excuse like "I wanted lunch money and there are plenty of assholes that deserve to go hungry, so I took it from them"

Al chills in parks on a regular basis and was a runaway that made his way to recolle two years ago. Not exactly sure how they would get along, he is a thief and probably would have kept to himself and daydream if he wasn't pickpocketing or just strolling around.

I feel like he wouldn't have taken a gap year, though. He'd just spend all his time at home eating himself alive for being a waste of space.

THAT SAID I can... totally see him floundering about that badly at this point. Touya's welcome to help him try to sort through options, but unfortunately, the roadblock is Rean himself. :')

HELLO EMMA... Crow please don't set the two of them up on a blind date that'll just be Weird for everyone

[personal profile] hexem 2018-11-12 01:23 pm (UTC)(link)
That's true. Any option that he might have actually stared school a year late because of health reasons? /tosses ideas, because all things can be made to work

Gosh, Rean. Man, Touya may seem gruff but he'll probably be very patient and helpful. And hey, Rean. It's okay. Just pick one thing and learn how to teach it and you can spend your time picking at other things...

/cackles Emma will be really, really surprised by something like that and like. Stare so much at Crow...

OH NO THAT IS VERY CUTE and pfft. Emma is 100% neutral enough that she won't even be bothered by his explanation. (At least until memories start coming back but by that point they probably will have steady enough dynamic that they can work through it.)

Nah, I've always had him as reasonably healthy, too. ...Physically. Mental health is still Supremely Questionable, but we work with it.

That... might just make Rean feel worse, honestly. That said, I'm totally on board with that – I want there to be some genuine struggle with him on this. As with canon, Reancolle here laughs off the clearly Worrying things as not being nearly as bad as they are. His reality is that he knows he's quickly reaching the end of his rope on this and that he's burdening his parents by wasting their money on an education he's getting nothing out of, but if you actually ask him about it, he's just "🙃 haha what? I'm fine! Everything's fine!"

Rean Schwarzer, everyone.

Also, right now my very tentative plans are to drive him toward becoming a history teacher (because ah that beautiful future canon reflection), so "pick one thing and learn to teach it" is not far off, maybe!

Crow, listen. He kind of, sort of understands, because Emma is a lovely young woman and they do have their past lives to connect them and all, but... it's just not like that. It's just not.

Emma, he's very sorry about this and he'd be happy to buy you a coffee and walk you home.

He he he, I love cute CRs! Oh yeah they would be close enough by then! I imagine since getting adopted he would still be grateful for when she helped him and help out whesever he can.(yet why does this guy thinks he is a self interested ass hole is beyond me.)

PLAYER: Pash
CHARACTER: Eda
CANON: Black Lagoon

AU NAME: Virginia Lynn Taylor
AU AGE: 35ish, she's a little more aged than she would be normally.
AU OCCUPATION: Various jobs around Recolle, mostly dealing with security.
BLURB:
✯ Born in a large, poor family in the South, and has been raising herself since she was 15. (So she doesn't really have the best relationship with parents, siblings and cousins are fine though, some even live in Recolle.)
✯ Joined the Army as soon as she graduated high school. She's been discharged since the age of 30, but doesn't really like to talk about her experiences and unless it's important, doesn't advertise her Army past.
✯ She isn't one for commitment and changes jobs/addresses/significant others every year. Even her hair doesn't keep the same color/style for more than a few months. (Right now it's kept to her shoulders and dark brown.)
✯ Tends to tinker around with mechanical things and old cars. (Her next job might be at a car mechanic.)
✯ Insists she isn't an alcoholic but tends to spend waaay too time at bars and too much money at the local liquor stores.
✯ Is far sighted so she tends to wear glasses going out.
✯ Has couch surfed at one point at a friends house. Aside from the money worries, could do it again.
✯ Has a daughter she gave up for adoption at the age of 17, she thinks a lot about her but she doesn't really have the courage to try and talk to her. (Even though Virginia moved to Recolle in hopes of being closer to her.)
✯ Keeps things until they are completely broken. (She manages to make use of an old, cracked smartphone despite telling people she'll replace it one day.
✯ Is kind of a mess, but a controllable mess, tbh.
✯ Is a decent markswoman and does enjoy shooting guns as a hobby and carries one for work, but she would never buy a gun to use in her daily life.

LOOKING FOR:
✯ Friends, bar buddies, former and current coworkers! People to tell her to get her shit together!
✯ Fellow Vets that miiiiight be able to pin her strange ways.
✯ Or a possible therapist, idk.
✯ Her daughter, who should be around the age of a teenager by now.
✯ Or that daughter's adopted parents.
✯ Dude, I am not picky.

/nooods yeah, stands to reason.

Rean. Gosh. (Listen, if Rean and Touya were in the same orientation group, Touya probably gets that the whole time running out thing is happening pretty well and all.) And oooh history teacher. Touya's dad was an archaeology professor so >.> Touya will definitely support.

Please, Rean. You and Emma can have a fun friend-date anyway. Recolle STUFF permitting, obviously.

Rean has no idea why Crow thinks Eren is so terrifying, Eren's the best!!

just wait until Eren finds out how meh Rean is at his schoolwork and how he's too apathetic to actually pursue anything in life versus floundering about in one spot sadly

[personal profile] motiv8 2018-11-12 03:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Life was easier back when the only goal he had to strive for was "graduate and get into a decent school." No one told him what he was supposed to do after that! Making his own decisions is terrifying? Every time he thinks about picking something and sticking with it it makes him anxious, which makes him more depressed, which just makes him not care about any of the things and

Rean is a mess, is the point here.

Oh, he'll show her a wonderful friend-date! But he's also punching Crow in the kidney later. Both kidneys if Crow makes any off-color jokes about Emma.
hexem: (Default)

[personal profile] hexem 2018-11-12 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Insert Baymax headpat emote. It's all right. They're all allowed to be messes. A little. Touya even won't get (too) frustrated about it. Most of the time. Touya is the one person for whom it's acceptable if the effort Rean is making is for the sake of others. That's fine. Just fine.

... you know. Better Rean punching him than Emma doing it. Her aim is great and she is a premed student...
