Hello Riverview! My name is Kath and I am completely new around these parts. I come bearing Quentin Compson, from William Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury. In short, the novel chronicles how the Compsons, America's original dysfunctional family, falls apart piece by piece. Quentin is the neurotic eldest son who probably cares way too much about his sister's sex life and definitely needs help with a capital H. If you're interested in learning more about him, his app is right here.

I have a permissions post that includes an opt-out form for those who would prefer to avoid sensitive subjects. Please take a moment to fill it out if you feel so inclined. Also, Quentin will be bunking on Community Housing Floor 10, so...waves at neighbors.

I'm excited to be on board! I will be a little slow as I finish up the last week of school (the final scramble to compile grades!), but I look forward to playing with all of you.

Add me at whaleen if you like!

Hello! Welcome to game, I'm Fossil and I play Bucky Barnes from the MCU. I haven't read The Sound the the Fury in AGES, but I remember enjoying it when I did, so I'm excited to see Quentin around.

Hello Fossil! I'm glad there's someone here who recognizes this weirdo haha. He will be so alarmed by the concept of super heroes...and probably a lot of other things.

YES PLEASE i would love to throw these two together! tho warning, being the product of his time that he is, he's low-key casual xenophobic and homophobic. sighs...

[genice]

no worries, i'm like how long will it take Victor to notice more than the xenophobia, considering word of god his canon has no homo/bi/anything phobia so it's a big fat ??? spot in context

wow you sure must live a more limited life being worried about people's sexualities... kanye shrugs asldkjf

[shadowstepped]

Hello Kath! The Sound in the Fury is one of my favorite novels ever so I'm delighted beyond all reason to see Quentin in game. I play Dick Grayson, a dumb baby superhero who also has a whole lot of siblings and Issues. Welcome!

I am so pleasantly surprised to see all these lit nerds crawling out of the woodwork. I can't wait to throw these weirdos together!
