YO NEWSIES IS MY JAM like one of my absolute favorite shows I'll talk about it until the cows come home......

She's physics professor right?? Jack might know her through David! or maybe gotten into her class by mistake. That's how he got into calculus that one time. or, y'know, he'll just hang out and bat eyelashes at her, as one does.

[insantafe]

girl u da best. let's go sing some showtunes and get chinese or something

[originallutece]

IT'S SO GOOD?? let me tell you stories of getting to watch the original run back before it was on broadway, that was a gooddamn trip

but yes! physics/general science professor, and god, if he's in her class by accident, she'd . . . honestly probably talk to him afterwards, like "buddy are you absolutely sure you wanna be here?" but yes charm away, she's far more charm-able in recolle than in canon

[batches]

awesome! frank definitely has lower costs than other usual repair guys since it's a little sketch, no business card and it's just a side business, but he does good work. especially since he doesn't have much else to do, he's pretty free to come by whenever, laughs

friendly business relationship into maybe possible friendship, go!

AND THE LAST

KNOWN

SURVIVOR

WEARS HERMÈS IN THE NIGHT

Dylas | Rune Factory

[sullenstallion]

PLAYER: Rune
CHARACTER: Dylas
CANON: Rune Factory

AU NAME: Dylas. His last name will either be Horse or some sort of horse pun.
AU AGE: 22
AU OCCUPATION: He's either going to work at a bakery, work mall security, or do both part-time.
BLURB:
-Was born outside of Recolle, but his parents passed away not long after he was born, leaving him to be raised by his much older sister who he started to idolize.
-He wanted to be like her so much! He grew his hair out long, he learned everything he could from her. He had trouble making friends, but he always had his big sister to come home to.
-He's from a small town where everyone knew his name which was kind of nice and also kind of annoying. He sometimes caused trouble for his sister by getting in trouble at school for being a little violent
-He managed to make some friends in high school and engaged in a number of sports activities (swimming and fishing most likely), and even made plans to go to college until his sister was diagnosed with a serious illness and he put all of his plans off so he could work to support her
-While commuting to work one day, he was injured in a bus crash. He spent some time in a coma, but when he came out of it he had retrograde amnesia
-He moved to Recolle to find a job to send money back to his sister while also living somewhere where people don't always look at him and his sister with pity. He feels guilt for abandoning her, but she's the one who urged him to leave
-He works as either a barista in some café or something or as a bouncer. Or both. He doesn’t have a lot of money left over, but he’s known for being sour and unfriendly with customers but a hard worker. He’ll get your order right, but you won’t want to tip him. He sometimes takes a class at a community college, but he can't afford more than two or three at a time.
-He sometimes participates in baking competitions. Baking and fishing help him relax when he’s struggling to get by.
-He runs a semi-popular blog about cute things like pastries and inspirational thoughts, but no one knows who writes it. It updates almost daily.
-He's 6'5" and secretly likes to work out. He has a mood board. He was made fun of as a kid. His hair is grey because he's just that unfortunate.

LOOKING FOR: Someone to tell me this is too dramatic. Friends. Co-workers. Maybe hospital contacts? He's probably had run-ins with the law, too, because he's unpleasant looking and has been mistaken for being a mugger, might have a misdemeanor or two on his record. Cousins? People who remember him from before he had amnesia? He probably came to Recolle during school trips or for holidays or..something. Yeah. Maybe he'll join one of those friendship groups for people trying to make friends in their twenties and do TERRIBLE at it. but work is probably most important
OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: yah

[femalething]

no u! yes please... and she can wingman you or you can wingman her if there's anyone super cute around.

[roseblooms]

HI LUCY SURPRISE IT'S ME

And honestly the question is not so much "is he nerdy enough to do dungeons and dragons", it is "will anybody else survive what happens when he plays dungeons and dragons"

SO BASICALLY YES LET'S DO THIS

[cattack]

maybe they could have worked on projects together for classes? cleo would get really interested in cold cases, so they might have tried to solve those.

[judgementkazzy]

Yeah, that sounds great! It's safe to say Makoto would have mentioned his cousin Kaz so they could definitely have exchanged pleasantries and such. Kiryu would be the kind of guy to like, quietly keep an eye out all of Makoto's friends... he cares.

he's just got awful eating habits because STUDENT LOANS...

[honestea]

Did he drink from this tea bowl? Is it for sale?! Just name the price!

Next time he comes, Ranmaru politely asks him not to touch too many things because he wants to keep them lmao.

Ah, it's gonna be cute.

[flexer]

I WAS GONNA HIT YOU UP BUT I HAD TO STEP OUT REAL FAST

please i love eijun my loud son

[roseblooms]

Hey, chum, he's a natural redhead that red so like...he cannot talk to anybody about hair color at this point

VIDEO GAMES VIDEO GAMES

Man it's gonna suck for him when he eventually remembers that he once literally murdered a ten-year-old with a video game like how do you even cope with that.

[originallutece]

Rosalind's a physics professor, used to be a child genius (now just a genius, no child bit necessary), and absolutely would love Abdul. He's clever! He's mature! He's got a wry sense of humor, possibly, if she levels up enough to reach it!

(also hello this is the polnareff that was bothering you back in january)

[admiringly]

LMAO LUCY ARE YOU TRYING TO BRIBE ME.... i have a mavis account and i would pick up mirajane, too. also, that does seem like it's hitting the end. exciting!! what could come after acnologia and zeref? i hope it's a good conclusion... does it seem like it's going to reach a good conclusion to you?

ps sandry is such a good choice

[secare]

Is it food? Yes? Then he's 100% down for it.

This it not love. This is going to be pure violence out of irritation and frustration. But yea, let's call it whatever we need to in order to have it overlooked because he's Ready. Ready to beat up a good-for-nothing god.

I'm thinking maybe Yukine comes to hang out with Kiryu when he upsets his aunt or generally doesn't wanna be around adults? YOU OK WITH SOME KID LINGERING AND PLAYING HANDHELD GAMES BEHIND YOU? ...and eating all your noodles.

Aradia Megido ("Ami Aihara") | Homestuck

[livingdeadgirl]

PLAYER: Kae
CHARACTER: Aradia Megido
CANON: Homestuck

AU NAME: Ami Aihara (AA for short)
AU AGE: somewhere between 13-16?
AU OCCUPATION: student / youtuber
BLURB:

• Basically a mall goth, although malls aren't really a thing anymore so minus that part EDIT: i am informed malls are still a thing whoops
• She is that one goth who's weirdly peppy and mostly got into it because she has an alarming fascination with death
• Hasn't actually crashed any funerals... yet
• Terrible poet, knows it, sometimes writes it anyway for funsies
• Has a significantly older sister who doesn't live with her currently (and might or might not be in jail)
• Her sister would have gone through high school before her, so teachers are welcome to see the name Aihara and go "oh christ not another one"
• Does makeup tutorials on Youtube but probably has only a modest following
• Half Japanese
• Absolutely LOVES role-playing
• Wants to be a paleontologist when she grows up
• Her heart belongs to Young Harrison Ford

LOOKING FOR:

• FRIENDOS! Fellow students, fellow Youtubers, fellow goths, fellow nerds... Apparently it's a hobby of hers to be aggressively friendly at grumpy people until they give up on being grumpy. I also love the idea of her just casually hanging out with the Wrong Crowd, because lbr they can't be worse than her canon friends :'D
• Parents? Idk if they're not PCs they'll probably be like the mysterious invisible parents in kids' shows, but I like the idea of her mom also being a Friendly Goth, so if you've got one of those...
• Classmates! I haven't quite decided what grade she's in - somewhere between 8th and 11th, though I'm leaning younger.
• Homestucks obviously, get in here

OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: the other one I'm thinking of was Ivan from Golden Sun but idk if there'd be demand for that

[crudest]

i'm glad that we have this because their original canons also line up for sengoku era things and they're just going to be like "why the fuck do i have shit with you"

but yes

please

because Baren and his sister were properly mutually devil children who didn't get caught bc they were so trained by their mother to cultivate their image.

I hope they tried to bully each other and start prank wars but in the end the pranks always got pinned on other kids

and when Baren got to Recollé and ran into Aki since they're both trying to lay low there was a deal of "I won't tell if you won't"

[livingdeadgirl]

hello i just want to pop in and say i love tuuri and i love you for playing her

[crudest]

oh my god

shuji I'm laughing so hard..... these are the videos that weird baren out and make him compare his fans to squirrels..... you should really choose to fanboy someone with a less shitty personality

[crudest]

HAHAHA A LITTLE IDOL PROTEGE FOR BAREN yes..... I love it and he'd probably crack up too

i keep laughing sdf;lkjsdf with his high class background he'd probably make fun of her like "you were a little flat there" but yes... he'd go..... i mean - he might not let her know that he's coming but he'll show up just to make her nervous and laugh if she trips on stage a little

[crudest]

for sure!! sounds good to me

[crudest]

conscience is

putting it so nicely since baren ignores nika 98% of the time if he's getting in the way of fun

[samuraisoul]

Good luck! SW4:Empires has proven to be the absolute best when it comes to screen-by-screen capping, you get every expression you need from that... without it I wouldn't have many, erm. Smiling icons.

[crudest]

yes it will be exactly this and I'll laugh over it every single time

both of them want baren to forget yato

now I'm actually realizing that Baren might... also.... pretend that he never remembers Yato's name..... sorry
