[hypermode]

Pro wrestling is all about putting on a good show

[he_smol]

Bookstore patron, possible teacher friend, can he be walked by walk your dog?

[hypermode]

Time to NTR Aki.

Wait I'm not apping Shuten

[sharplydressed]

he can have his very own spirit babysitter, isn't that great... bakura causing havoc and kashuu just deadass staring into his soul from the next table over

GREAT THO... so great...... the chocobo heist was a one-time thing but since he's slowly becoming more and more sword, the stabbing things thing is probably going to become more frequent.

[lycannerd]

Oh yes!!! (Sorry, still working on his :3 icon)

He would like to have him as a teacher friend! And if he got his powers back, maybe Heine would walk Den as well? (Werewolf joke... I know...)

[sharplydressed]

HIS FONDEST DREAMS, REALIZED...

sounds great to me though! kashuu's always trying to snatch customers away from expressive anyway, good work kash

[warmhearted]

I LOVE MAGILOU so CR with these two would be a dream come true. she can't dislike a fellow partner with terrible jokes honestly, she'd probably find them all good as long as you're not stealing her thunder like rose sometimes does. but i wouldn't be against the latter too!

[he_smol]

Np about the icons! I'm still lacking a couple for this dude. And Den would end up walking Heine, lbr.

But he'd definitely be around the bookstore often! Maybe at least a couple times a week...

[sharplydressed]

JIROU'S FRIEND SQUAD, ROLLIN OUT. kashuu probably sideeyes both of them for their unfamiliarity with laundry but still likes them anyway... so hype to see tarou though!!

Yonah | NieR

[bookofyonah]

PLAYER: Joly
CHARACTER: Yonah
CANON: NieR


AU NAME: n/a
AU AGE: 12
AU OCCUPATION: Home-schooled Student
BLURB:

• Born in Recollé. Family consists of a father, mother, and (possibly!) an older brother. She's homeschooled by her mother. Her father and brother are both often very busy and not at home, yet she loves them very much. She often sends them text messages. Occassionally there will be the "please come home soon!" message.
• Loves going to the library and reading mostly fictional, fantasy books
• Loves white flowers!
• Enjoys experimenting with cooking. Her meals usually turn out badly. Her family doesn't have the heart to tell her how bad it is, so they endure it.
• Will sometimes give animals or even inanimate objects cute names (Weissy/Shiro-chan)
• Not very athletic or physically strong.
• Spends a lot of her free time on the internet and likes to chat and make friends on social media. Writes fan mail to people. Super friendly and probably easily trolled.

LOOKING FOR: She doesn't go to public school... but she can still use friends! Neighbors! Friends that she made over social media? She can probably be seen doing her studies in the library or something, browsing a book store...
OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: I'm actually on the fence about this, but I decided to try this AU thing a shot after seeing all the Yoko Taro characters on here. Also, I'm open to revising the AU!

[flowrite]

...I kind of feel like these two would be terrible together. As in terrible for everyone around them. So maybe they should be friends :3

(plus he's an Actual Adult even though he doesn't always act it, he's a music nerd so they're both artsy, and he can totally relate to having the worst family history and putting on a face for everyone else)

[sharplydressed]

reaches across the table to grab nikkaris hands

[lycannerd]

Yeah and maybe Ryder might pester him about the latest books he recently read whenever he visits the bookstore!

[notruejudge]

Somewhat tentative... I'd need to canon review like crazy but I've been wanting to play this dork again for years now. apparently I have a thing for playing blond twins??

PLAYER: JC
CHARACTER: Basch fon Ronsenburg
CANON: Final Fantasy XII


AU NAME: Bastian Rosenberg
AU AGE: 36
AU OCCUPATION: Security? Maybe?? Former Royal Marine
BLURB:

I don't have a lot for him yet, so any suggestions would be loved! But here's what I've got so far:

» Obviously twin brother of Noah Gabranth
» Born in the UK, lived together with Noah and their parents until a nasty divorce split their parents when the twins were 16
» Stayed behind in the UK when Noah and their mother moved away
» Two years later joined the Royal Marines at age 18
» Has spent the last 18 years as a Royal Marine; a full career in the marines is 18 years, so he literally just retired this year
» Possibly coming to Recolle for a career opportunity? I'm thinking at a private security company, or as security for someone big and important? But I'm super open to suggestions!
» Is still Captain Lineface and needs to be shown how to have fun
» All about Honor and Duty but occasionally cracks a very dry joke or spouts a bit of sarcasm and surprises the hell out of everyone around him

LOOKING FOR: Employers? New co-workers? He's going to be fresh and new in town so I don't imagine he'll have much else, but again I'm open to suggestions!

Jude Mathis | Tales of Xillia

[spiritcomplex]

PLAYER: Atom
CHARACTER: Jude Mathis
CANON: Tales of Xillia


AU NAME: n/a
AU AGE: 18
AU OCCUPATION: College Student. I'm open to him getting a part-time job but I'm leaning against it as he probably wouldn't have the time or commitment.

BLURB:
- Born to parents both with careers in medicine. Was an only child as his parents felt their lives were too chaotic for more children.
Moved a few times when younger so didn’t make many friends at an early age. Family eventually settled in Recolle partly to be near his uncle’s family.
- Wasn’t pressured so much in grade school so experienced a period of rapidly gaining new interests that generally only lasted until high school.
- Was often looked after by his older cousin while his parents were busy. Found he liked baking and, by extension, working with his hands. He had a knack for dexterous tasks.
- Has went fishing with his father on occasion and found he likes it immensely, though this is largely due to how peaceful and serene it usually is. Otherwise, hasn’t bonded much with his father at all. Sometimes he’ll have long conversations with his mom about his life and his feelings, but she does little more than offer an ear.
- Began to work hard and study often in high school when he started to be pressured into planning out his future as following his parent’s footsteps to eventually get a doctorate of medicine. Doesn’t usually have time for socializing.
- Started classes in Krav Maga for self-defense when he and a friend were mugged in their first year of high school. Feels a great deal of guilt for it to this day and it motivates him to want to help others, even if he comes off as nosey. Has a blue belt but hasn’t been able to progress further thanks to the difficulty and other priorities.
- After dating his best friend and going through an awkward break-up, he’s ultimately unsure what he wants. He’s confused and would rather just not date anyone for the time being.
- Graduated high school with honors and is set for college, but is unsure if he even wants to do what his parents expect of him. He’s ultimately too indecisive to figure out a different path in life for himself and so the furthest he’s considered is dialing back on a number of years he plans to study for.
- Just sort of passive and easygoing, but sometimes opinionated. He enjoys the company of others even if he doesn't really have time to spend on maintaining a lot of friendships.
LOOKING FOR: Friends from middle/high school, mentors for college, fellow Krav Maga students. Anything, really. Any friends he does have are probably not going to be on the closest terms with him, but it wouldn't be a distant relationship at least.
OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: Not much to say here!

[he_smol]

Those are always welcome. Encouraging reading with the youth~

[gudaguda]

gehooooo

no for serious i think sakura definitely would have cosplayed like... asuka or someone of that sort because she loves the robes, the belts etc.

I think she'd appreciate being dragged to the mountains and someone to body slam the pervs...

[kagepuro]

HI BEST FRIEND THAT DUMPED ME

[storytelleroftime]

They can bond over music tastes. Magilou personally is into a lot of weird rock stuff. Like, big Mars volta fan.

But yeah totally wouldn't mind them being friends at all. Sounds cool with me.

[storytelleroftime]

Yes, they shall subject everyone to bad puns! That is their true master scheme! and I make no promises. Seriously though yeah, them CRing would be awesome. While I do have my problems with Zesty(thoughI do still like it) Laila's was honestly quite an entertaining character. One of my favs from that game who honestly should have gotten more focus than she did. seriously I have so many unanswered questions.

[lycannerd]

Yay, youth!

[despirit]

HE'S COMING HOME I SWEAR...NPC NIKA WILL BE PC NIKA

[blacksong]

Zero should be her Worst Neighbor Ever that none of her family wants Yonah talking to but she finds a way anyways...

[sharplydressed]

good because baren is literally killing him softly

[despirit]

dw he'll wrangle baren

as much as baren will allow himself to be wrangled
