Of note, I don't plan to app until August's app cycle but just throwing this out here anyway to gauge and plan for then.

PLAYER: Ty
CHARACTER: John Egbert
CANON: Homestuck


AU NAME: John Egbert
AU AGE: 18
AU OCCUPATION: Freshman in college, though I'd like him to maybe get a job when he shows up? Either some sort of retail that he'll hate or something he'll love like working at a movie theatre he can get free tickets or working in a music store. Open to this.
BLURB: John Egbert is an 18 year old who just graduated from high school this year and will be attending RU in the fall. He plans on majoring in biology despite the fact it's not his first choice, but it's a solid one. Alternatively he might be studying cinematography or I might write a path where he ends up starting with one and swapping to the other, not entirely sure yet! He's an accomplished pianist even if he won't often say so and he played on his high school's soccer team for four years. He's generally very laid back and prone to making friends easily since he tends to accept people the way that they are and judge later if necessary. He's very passionate about his tastes in movies and video games and he's also prone to causing mischief and pranking people. Sorry about him. Overall bottom line: easy to befriend, generally calm, a loyal and good boy.
LOOKING FOR: Friends? As said above I won't be apping him until August's app cycle to ensure I can appropriately be available during July + August's events, but I'd love to kind of gauge friends and co-workers and stuff? He will be rooming in a dorm with Dave Strider in-game. So generally open to friends his age, younger, older…people who share similar hobbies? People he can just chat with? He's very easygoing and tends to talk to just about anybody. Hire him for a part-time job? Why the hell not.
OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: His app's done, I'm literally just waiting for August's app cycle.

[parodeity]

dave wants 2 claim best friends ?

[windeity]

uh excuse, where is his friendship bracelet??????

lucy we'll chat more about it when august gets close but consider: dave doesn't even know he's getting a roommate until like right when apps close and then it's just "oh hey btw."

[parodeity]

ugh he was gonna get a solo room and then surprise roomie. he'll mind it until he sees who it is I GUESS

[destiny_key]

HEY YOU WERE ON THE SOCCER TEAM?????????????
HEY FRIENDO COME BE FRIENDS WITH SORA HE IS ALSO SOCCER

[windeity]

LAUGHS FEARLESS....please, John and Sora would be really cute? He'd love a soccer buddy to hang out with because he will probably miss it a little when he gets bored

[destiny_key]

They could be such good friends omg. With the added benefit of having been on the same soccer team for four years, they'd probably know each other decently well too.

[ninjay]

this is francy im too lazy to switch accounts but also like

they are going to have a billion classes 2gether, ty

[windeity]

ew get out

FRANCY I NEED KARKAT AND JOHN BEING STUDY BUDDIES. if only because they're be the actual worst at it. Do you have ideas what Karkat really wants to do in college yet?

[ninjay]

NOT YET

john should help him decide

and yes they are going to be study buddies and it's gonna be terrible???

[voideity]

can't wait for roxy to say "you need to see the spirit speech ur new roomie did at graduation"

annabeth may share a general ru class with him or two and. I guess would get along with him tho I guess. he would remind her a bit of ANOTHER DUMB BLUE BOY, GOD.........

[windeity]

I want that to be their intro Megs, give me this. I want John and Roxy friendship??? AND CUBEFORTS!

...laughs if John triggers Percy memories for her I will a.) laugh and then b.) cry. He'd like to bother her, I'm sorry.

[voideity]

maybe roxy will just ask davey for his roommates number to make it happen immediately

good, cry, SHE'S USED TO BEING BOTHERED

ADDENDUM

[windeity]

I, an idiot, forgot to mention he's actually moving to Recollé for college and has no idea what the hell is happening in the city. So he'll have fun losing his blue eyes and everything, whoops!

Re: ADDENDUM

[voideity]

save him

[true_noir]

You know... as laid back as John is, there's at least a decent chance these two knew each other during her last year in high school.

[windeity]

Ahhh sorry! I ended up adding an addendum to my comment since I didn't get to end up editing it in, but he's actually going to be one of those that moves to the city for college and won't know anyone prior. They might be able to meet each other some other way?

[livingdeadgirl]

HI JOHN HI

[windeity]

GOD THAT ICON X(!!! I'm cracking up

Kae I would love for him to meet Aradia whenever he shows up in-game! She'll be starting high school, right? They're about four years apart but I also imagine that Dave will tell him about her. What sort of things has she been doing in-game?

[constellates]

anyway you know what i want

[windeity]

please let anya come visit to do a housewarming for dave and just find john sitting there unpacking his shit tbh. but no dana i am here for cute friends who are enthusiastic about friends? and also music buds and baking cookies and also he will teach her how to play soccer and join the anya protection squad

[sharplydressed]

u know i gotta be here for more ty cr. kashuu will be a sophomore at RU this year so im sure there'll be plenty of chances for them to bump into each other!

[windeity]

aki!!! yeah yeah dude please, kashuu and john would be cute? he'll be Very Confused about college but honestly they both attend classes and stuff and I will figure out a good way to toss him at the cute sword, like, immediately. maybe he shows up at a good bean a lot to study at first and he likes talking to the friendly barista, who even knows. possibilities are endless here

[digthefuzz]

Friends!

[windeity]

GORE!!! IM! GOING! TO GET! CR WITH KURT THIS TIME!!! I've already briefly mentioned on plurk and such that I think Kurt and John will get along really really well? Hell, maybe John was a fan of Kurt's show or they were online friends prior to John showing up in Recollé? :|a there are definitely possibilities and I'm going to make this work because I miss Gore tags in my inbox tbqh
