• For current players who are interested in 2nd or 3rd characters, please review and follow our policy about AC! 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. Your reserve will not be accepted until you supply the requested AC!
As a note, we will update the application page with a space for current players to link their full AC for our review should a player wish to apply without a reserve.

PLAYER: Yuff
CHARACTER: Allen Walker
CANON: D.Gray-Man

AU NAME: Noah R. Campbell
AU AGE: 18
AU OCCUPATION: High School Senior
BLURB:
Note: Noah was on the app before, so he'll gain some memories back of his time on the app, but I'm revising his AU some!

CONTENT WARNING FOR EARLY BACKSTORY. Content includes child trafficking and abuse (non-sexual). Highlight black to see content warning material.
♠ Born in the UK with a missing arm, was abandoned by his birth parents sometime before he could remember them.
Unfortunately became a victim to child trafficking. Spent early childhood in hostile environments and forced to do various manual labor jobs. Escaped during a police raid when he was ~7 years old.
♠ Met a traveling entertainer who ended up adopting him and giving him his name.
♠ Spent the rest of his childhood traveling around the UK for his dad's work.
♠ When Noah was 15, his dad became sick. He attempted to take care of him, but ultimately he was forced to get in touch with his dad's estranged relatives in the US for help.
♠ As part of an agreement with the family, when Noah was 16 they immigrated to the US where his dad was sent to a long-term care facility while Noah moved in with a cousin.
♠ Shortly after moving to the city, Noah got on the app for the first time for about a year and a half. Hijinks ensued, including gaining a new arm.
♠ Cousin eventually moved out of town due to a family emergency. After moving around for awhile, Noah's recently moved in with a former teacher.
♠ When he left the app, he lost the arm and is currently using a prosthetic. That's going to be a trip to remember.
♠ He's in his senior year of high school and plans to go to technical college. He wants to become a firefighter, but that might be hard with only one normal arm, so he's looking into options.
♠ Unlike Allen in canon, he never developed a polite mask, so he's a pretty rude and aggressive brat.
♠ While I'm not sure matured is the right word, he's become more focused since leaving the app.
♠ He's still a profane brat though whose not fond of talking to people.
♠ Likes: Food, money, dogs, video games, netflix, gymnastics.
♠ Still dresses like he's an escaped Hot Topic catalog model.
♠ Volunteers at various dog shelters and works part time...somewhere for extra money. He used to work at the Confectionary, but idk if I still want him there.


LOOKING FOR: Classmates, teachers, people who remember him, coworker
OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: None please! I'm not sure if I'll be apping Noah this round or in another, but I am planning to have him around for endgame.

Throwing a family idea at you! Cause... i would be amused if Derek was somehow related to this guy. What if Arthur was Derek's biological cousin. Sort of.

Derek->Derek's english mom->Mom's english sister who lived in DC->english sister's very american husband->some sibling of american husband->Arthur

Arthur would have been 10 when Derek's parents died, and yeah they died on the outskirts of recolle, but no one in the family knew they were on the run (plus who keeps up with thee family of your in-laws.) What if years later Arthur had heard that some relative of an aunt when on the run with their family and they are missing, probably dead? and then he meets Derek and thinks, man he looks like the pic of this dead family member... just way older. But like doesn't thin much of it until him and Derek start talking and becoming friends due to both being on the app?

I am down with this, yes! I mean I imagine as far as he goes it would be something he's heard about when he was younger that wasn't exactly discussed, because that's. Not particularly a graceful way to go, there. So it's likely something he would have looked into on his own when he was older because oh, yeah, something weird happened on that side of the family and he'd be curious about it in some way.

Ooooo perfect~ That's just what Li-Na needs. She will bring Ahmi homemade baked goods every time, b/c you take care of the person who takes care of you.

THANKS, CROW...

And that definitely works! If you want to roll with a summer stay that's cool, or just hearing about Noir is fine as well!!

AND YEAH, Alexander doesn't exactly go around announcing that anyway so it's fine..... this is so cute, please make sure this man has a life, he kind of needs one...

Like Derek doesn't even know Arthur or his family exists. He has recently remembered his lost memories of his parents, but the only extended family he knows about is that his mom had a sister. Since he only recently remembered it, he hasn't taken the time to seek out any biological family. And he's not one to openly reveal his actual name he was born with. Like Tatsuo knows, and that's it.

I'm down for arthur looking into it on his own, and i'd be down to hash out what he probably would have found. Because one advantage Arthur would have had that Derek didn't: names of people and pictures. Derek had literally nothing to go off of for years.

When you say "this past semester" do you mean fall 2018 or spring 2019 because if the former then maybe Jamie was in his class!!!
...or idk maybe he visited the Tea Kittle where Jamie was a barista!! (or maybe Starbucks back when Jamie worked there instead!! not the one ON campus, but the one BY campus!)

Anyway Jamie is a 21yo premed sociology major who lost his physical form partway through the fall semester and just barely managed to pass all his classes thanks to most of them not taking attendance (and his pulling some Invisible Man tier shenanigans with the one that did) but is now officially Withdrawn, and also broke, jobless, stressed, etc., so who wouldn't want to make friends with that

PLAYER: Len
CHARACTER: Himeko Inaba
CANON: Kokoro Connect

AU NAME: Raina Schwarzer (first name might change since I'M BAD AT COMING UP WITH NAMES, but it's definitely going to be princess/queen themed ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
AU AGE: 18
AU OCCUPATION: Freshman college student
BLURB:

♡ Younger sister to Rean Schwarzer ([personal profile] motiv8); born in a small city outside of Rochester, New York.
♡ She had friends (""friends"") but she was not particularly close to any of them, much less cared about any of them outside of the base level. Her brother is her only best friend...
♡ Secretly a huge anime/manga nerd. She took Japanese classes in high school, so she's fluent now and collects merch from her favorite series but she's very much in the closet about it. Except for when she goes to conventions but she tries so hard to keep this hobby on the down low, laughs.
♡ Also a huge tech nerd. She loves computers and tinkering with them to the point where she built her own computer from the ground up once.
♡ Because of the above, she's on a lot of online forums and chatboards, where she goes by "Hime" as her alias.
♡ Just transferred to Recollé to attend college there but she didn't tell her brother about it because 1) she wanted to surprise him 2) he doesn't contact them often if at all, which is rude af :|!!!
♡ First year college student who is majoring in computer sciences, minoring in psychology. She's actually pretty intelligent (aka she gets REAL GOOD GRADES) but isn't a showoff about it or anything.
♡ HAS TRUST AND SELF WORTH ISSUES. . . . she keeps it a huge secret and tries to make sure that nobody finds out because she's scared that people will think she's broken, because she sure thinks that she's like that.

LOOKING FOR:

♡ Collegemates, whether they're in the same class as her or not!
♡ Fellow computer or animanga nerds.
♡ People who would actually make the attempt to befriend her and accept her for the person she is.
♡ People that she would have spoken to her online, too.
♡ People she can troll and mess with...
♡ Also anyone that knows her brother so she can drag his ass, I'M SO SORRY SHE'S LIKE THIS
♡ She doesn't have a job yet, but anyone who can help her find one would be great, too. Let her work under you, she's a good worker.

OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: I'm pretty set, but this might not happen this cycle due to having computer issues but I wanted to attempt plotting something out early!
motiv8: (⚔️ 16)

[personal profile] motiv8 2019-01-14 10:51 pm (UTC)(link)
LISTEN HE'S SORRY... (but not enough to call home more often)

anyway precious baby sister! PLEASE drag his ass he deserves it so much

if anyone starts eyeing her in a more-than-friend sense he might start breathing down their necks but otherwise he'll just be here will smith posing, look at how good his sister is she's so much better than him!

motiv8: (⚔️ 33)

[personal profile] motiv8 2019-01-14 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
WELL YES IF IT MADE YOU UPSET!! it just never registered to him that hey maybe his sister might miss him, because tfw you see no value in yourself

[overprotective big brother vibrates more intensely]
dereban: ❥ all icons are my own unless otherwise denoted. (Default)

[personal profile] dereban 2019-01-14 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
i mean



she won't say it made her upset out.... right..... she's not good at being a sibling either!!

tsundere vs. oblivious, who will win?

(one of their friends by figuring it out and saying it outright to rean's stupid face)
dereban: ❥ all icons are my own unless otherwise denoted. (Default)

[personal profile] dereban 2019-01-14 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
yeah that's pretty accurate tbh
jurai: by <user name=motiv8> (43)

[personal profile] jurai 2019-01-15 12:08 am (UTC)(link)
YOOOO

Okay so Crow is instantly going to want to be friends with this girl, Rean's protective hissing or not. Mostly so he can gently encourage her to be more comfortable with talking about things she likes to do. MAYBE EVEN. HELP HER COSPLAY! since he's into fashion himself and would just be like 'yo you would rock at this'

Also I want him through both rean and her to pick up weird japanese like please let this be the start of his "Chotto a minute"s and "nani the fuck"s
dereban: ❥ all icons are my own unless otherwise denoted. (Default)

[personal profile] dereban 2019-01-15 12:12 am (UTC)(link)
HAHA GOD she'd be so embarrassed by cosplay shit in public /)_(\

but yes she would 100% be down to help with that because she's a shitposter at heart... laughs

and it'll be funny once she actually recalls that she was actually japanese in her past life so she'll just be like. 'ah, yes, this makes sense'
jurai: they ring my phone (♣️ | 02)

[personal profile] jurai 2019-01-15 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
AHMI Crow probably needs someone to talk to about his cousin back in Florida and his ghosting her so maybe like he'll pay in drinks or paints

also it would be really cute if Ahmi and Crow met at a hospital helping kids


PS boobs are pretty great is he right or is he right
jurai: (♦️ | 27)

[personal profile] jurai 2019-01-15 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
GIRL IT DOESNT HAVE TO BE PUBLIC JUST TAKE PHOTOS FOR YOUR OWN SELF AND LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE

"Ah I was japanese this explains a lot"
"Damn all that Duolingo seems pretty redundant now huh"
jurai: lots and lots money (♥️ | 09)

[personal profile] jurai 2019-01-15 12:21 am (UTC)(link)
Great! He probably did menial tasks like warehouse work so that's perfect!

If he ever finds out about your painting hobby you better expect him to nudge you towards your hobbies, my good man
