PLAYER: Snow ( [personal profile] undergrowl )
CHARACTER: Kon Shinonome
CANON: Amatsuki


AU NAME: Currently no change, but looking for possible AU family to hash things out with, so.
AU AGE: 17
AU OCCUPATION: College student / parttimer
BLURB: the quick and dirty version, because I'm going to bed...
    - born here in recollé
    - rather than losing his parent/guardian(??? AMATSUKI???), Kon never had one in the first place
    - if no takers come for adopted/foster family, Kon will have been picked up by a teacher that saw all of his potential and wanted to keep him out of trouble
    - regardless, though, grew up smarter than just about everybody in his age bracket, and was enrolled in a program for gifted youths
    - he progressed through it, until graduating early from high school, with minimal social difficulties outside of spinning circles around many teachers and classmates (and probably downing a couple servers, as you do)
    - rather than just fart off elsewhere, he decided to head off to Recollé University, especially since he was starting to get bored anyways (and that is very dangerous for smart/smart-mouthed teenagers)
    - specializes in history and computer science, especially gifted in hacking, programming, and low grade engineering
    - he's probably been in uni for about... two, three years? and admittedly probably changed his major/minor at least once during that time, but he's restless and trying to make sure he gets all of the knowledge he wants/needs
    - nevermind that he's going to be one of those career school kids that keeps going until they have like five masters

    - without a dead parent/guardian/mentor to spur him forward wrt revenge/vigilante justice, Kon didn't instigate nearly as many fights as he did in canon, thus he's... not as much of a yankee delinquent in this one
    - without the aforementioned parent/guardian/mentor, Kon never took an interest in cooking, and thus will be very confused when he suddenly regains his fiery passion for food? it's great he probably lives off of takeout and will be horrified by this eventually

You can find his personality and canon powers here at a temp post, if you're curious, because they're relevant to all of this/rec.
LOOKING FOR: Other college kids, adults for him to undermine a little (or a lot, depending), other tech/science/history people, coworkers/employees/etc I just don't know what his job is yet, but most of all POSSIBLY A FAMILY THAT ADOPTED HIM OR EXISTS?
OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: iunno fam

first of all allow me to SCREAM because holy shit Amatsuki holy shit Kon holy shit

if you need an adult to undermine please may I offer my yakuza who is a pencil-pushing real estate agent, I am willing to bend over backwards to get this CR. Kiryu is a boring guy who tries very hard and is really naive and easy to mess with and he graduated college last year (ans also still mostly eats instant food) so they could even have been classmates, let me know which option suits your fancy

SCREAMS BACK SOFTLY i'm gonna cry people remember amatsuki

Honestly that's a hilarious image to me. I will take CR with the crime dads at every opportunity but unlike with Koushuu Kon would 100% fuck with Kiryu whenever he can. Having been classmates with a 16yo is killing me right now.
judgementkazzy: (ノリたいのよ)

[personal profile] judgementkazzy 2017-06-10 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
sobs I haven't caught up in a million years because scanlations were so slow but I own.... a lot of the manga... just quietly willing myself to learn kanji faster so I could read it HAhaha...

KON, YOU'RE THAT ONE KID... the tiny insufferable boy genius, he's practically a character out of a Yakuza sub-story, let's make it happen!! Crime dads are the best dads!! (also please mess with Kiryu at every opportunity)

Scanlations are at like, 108? And the site that I look at Ch...inese raws on has hit 137 (WHEN I WASN'T LOOKING, I NEED TO GO SCREAM INTO THE ETHER) so it's not too... far... behind... it's just very slow.

He really honestly is and it's kind of perfect. Kon low key sassing Kiryu and wondering how he'll survive out in the real world.
judgementkazzy: (So the grooves make me move)

[personal profile] judgementkazzy 2017-06-12 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
I don't even remember where I left off, it was around the time that Kon put his fake doppelganger in with Toki...

Please do this, he will be the insufferable child he never wanted...
refate: © ғᴏʟᴋʟᴏʀᴇ (Default)

[personal profile] refate 2017-06-13 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah they've managed to scanslate through the Kon reveal. His doppleganger knows he's a doppleganger and he told Toki/Toki is reflecting on that.

He'll tell him that he'd better be careful or he'll go bald young tbh.

Futaba needs hacking+programming buddies/friendly rivals. But she's definitely one who could Keep Up with him wrt. idk I just need this friendship.

[personal profile] refate 2017-06-10 09:35 pm (UTC)(link)
I'M WEEPING WITH EVERY PERSON THAT KNOWS THIS FOOL
Please I need CR with Futaba that would be wonderful, he would be all about the friendly rivalry and also probably low key pigtail pull because. Because you know him. That's Kon.

[personal profile] alitaba 2017-06-11 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
WEEPS THAT OTHER PEOPLE KNOW THE SERIES TOO!!!!!!1

I got back into anime/manga and was like
Ah yes
I will reread all of my old favs AND IT WAS A MISTAKE

Would they know each other only as their online personas??? Or would they meet up to trash talk other people and look at vidya???? The possibilities are ENDLESS.

I have Been There
I feel for u friend
that's a rabbit hole even I have fallen down and have had many, many regrets.


Also no reason to say it can't be both?? The classic met online and had later awkward first meetings until one of them opened their mouth and it all went downhill from there.

Amatsuki is the worst rabbit hole because there were just 50 million reveals
and plot dumps
and everything is so much and I am on the edge of my seat waiting for scanlators to catch up to the translations that are no longer around bc the person who did them privated those posts.

The first thing I thought of when I saw this was just. The memes overfloweth. Dear god someone quarantine them.

Myca is a TA for RU's history department (since it's how they get their Ph.D funding): possibly Kon was in one of the classes that they've taught at some point.
refate: © ғᴏʟᴋʟᴏʀᴇ (Default)

[personal profile] refate 2017-06-10 09:36 pm (UTC)(link)
I would love that! It'd be great to have someone to bounce history facts off of while also possibly ruffling feathers.
thorninyourheart: all icons by <user name="egaite"> DNS. (Default)

[personal profile] thorninyourheart 2017-06-11 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
Myca's feathers might be ruffled a bit since they tend to be kind of irritable/prickly behind graceful facade, but they'd be pleased to have a student who was interested in the material and up to a challenge.

They probably would have off-handedly probably asked Kon if he had ever considered grad school before probably not bringing up again (unless asked to clarify).
refate: © ғᴏʟᴋʟᴏʀᴇ (Default)

[personal profile] refate 2017-06-13 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Kon is... Kon is definitely someone that'll find the buttons to press behind that facade, I am so sorry Myca. But he'll be well-behaved otherwise, so they won't have too much to worry about.

That'd actually be something interesting to explore! I'd love that to come up in-game, ngl.

[personal profile] thorninyourheart 2017-06-18 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
Myca's doomed the second that they actually get irritable for the first time in front of him, huh?


Noted. I'll make sure to have Myca bring it up at some point.
