name: Tea
contact: [plurk.com profile] teaandreveries or PM!
threading preferences: I'm faster with short tags, but I enjoy logs too. I just take much longer with those. I also default to brackets and present tense.
threading habits: I'm slow about tags, but I'll backtag a pretty long time. My schedule is sporadic so I tend to take a while to return tags. I'm in the EST timezone and do most of my tagging in the morning with some evening tags when I can.
about you: I am a boring retail worker who likes nerdy things, so most of what I talk about tends to be hobbies rather than work. I ramble about Marvel a good deal, mostly Iron Man stuff to be honest, but I also love horror and will talk a lot about that in various forms. Folklore and world mythology are my jam, especially monsters. Also Hellblazer. Why don't more people like Hellblazer?

Other hobbies are baking/cooking fun so I'm always interested in creative cooking adventures, cute plush, swords/forged weapons, and deep sea life. And cheese. Talk to me about cheese. I'm open to adding if you don't mind crazy plurks.

character
name: Steve Rogers (616)
age: mid-30's
occupation: Captain for the Perimeter Guard Search and Rescue, professional salt block.
residence: Getting a place with Bucky! :D They are renovating an old building!
about: Steve is a more experienced version of the character and therefore more confident in his Capness and tends to be more gruff. He's still a decent person with strong moral beliefs and can give after school special talks, but he also tends to be snarky and restless. He's coming from a canon point where he recently just "died" and returned to life, so he's still adjusting to things and getting back on his feet. This means he's more salty. He is the grumpy one who has seen a lot of friends die directly and questioned his hero status a few times. That said, he also has a lot of hope? Superheroes are complicated.

what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: Monster fighting, team ups, building CR, shenanigans, possibly missions, and exploration stuff.
what plans you have for this character: Right now just trying to build up his CR more! I want to catch up with the CR I have fallen behind on and make him more friends.
shipping/smut preferences: Because of the sheer amount of salt, he's actually hard to ship with. I am honestly pretty open to ship and smut stuff, but with Steve the ship part tends to be messy. He's prone to feel more than he'll follow up on and has a habit of one night stands when he's not immediately involved with someone, so it's tricky.

what your character wants: Peace of mind, direction, a place to belong, and friends to stand by him.
what your character needs: A solid purpose, a network of friends does help, and someone willing to rein him in gently. Perspective would also be nice.

So, I keep going back and forth on whether Janis and Steve would get along or rub each other 100% the wrong way. XD

She's a very salty superhero so I could see that either being common ground or something neither of them takes well in other people. But if Steve ever wants to talk about the 40s or having a best-friend more into making tech toys than taking care of himself, I could maybe offer some stuff. Contentious friends?

(I'll just admit her canon is written by Bendis, and there are some very un-subtle Marvel parallels. He didn't even try.)

[personal profile] livingsymbol 2017-08-18 01:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I would be so down for either way, whether they argue or get along, it is great CR! It would be great to have him talk to her and be able to have someone that relates to the awkward woes. He likes to complain about Tony's health habits, yes. And if they bicker, Steve likes bickering.

(That's because Bendis ships it. No shame at all from him.)
retro_me: (Remember Those Old War Days)

[personal profile] retro_me 2017-08-18 08:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Excellent! She relates to a lot of the awkward woes. She gets the whole Symbol of a Nation thing, having Complicated Feelings about it. And Janis seems to bicker a little with the people she likes, so bickering can happen. :P

(Yepp. He does.)

She's on the guard (getting "fast-tracked" to squad leader, apparently) so could always have them meet in the course of #workthings or something.

[personal profile] livingsymbol 2017-08-20 02:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Awesome, because bickering with friends is something Steve needs more of. He hasn't gotten to bond as much with people in riverview recently. They should totally talk about work and possibly team up for some monster fighting.

[personal profile] retro_me 2017-08-22 09:02 am (UTC)(link)
Well, Janis can definitely provide! She does seem to like the banter thing. So they should totally bond sometime. Monster punching and maybe some friendly drinks and conversation or whatnot. She'll probably be flying around the fire too. So there are options~

character
name: Christian Fischer
age: 30
occupation: Life Coach for Gramarye Research
residence: communal housing, floor 12, bed 4

about: Christian is a semi-normal human that comes from an urban fantasy setting where magic and spirits are real. His world is pretty much like our own, only urban legends and hauntings are actually caused by supernatural entities and magic really exists. He's a pretty amateur magic user with a few tricks and a lot of rough edges, but he's also really calm and very curious. He's always looking to poke at new people or things and make some connection to the world around him so he doesn't disappear. He also has a nightmare-inducing bed bug that lives in his shadow. You know, as you do.

what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: Just building more CR. I would like to explore the whole life coach aspect more, because I think that would be fun. Both having him offer good advice and just having him mess up or confuse people with magic.

what plans you have for this character: Hopefully getting him more involved in some magic related things. I want him to mess things up eventually.

shipping/smut preferences: He runs fast and loose, but he's an affectionate and friendly person. He would probably take time to build up to anything steady because he's used to people immediately forgetting him, but I'm always willing to explore any good chemistry.

what your character wants: Adventure! More knowledge of magic, things to explore, something new, maybe a little peril, freedom, fun, and someone to share things with.

what your character needs: Someone to keep him from setting himself on fire.

anything else: just this.

I kinda wanna toss Ava at Christian at some point if you were up for it. I have this idea of her maybe poking at Gramarye a bit after she sets the residential building on fire w h o o p s. :D
buildingcastles: (pic#8032164)

[personal profile] buildingcastles 2017-08-16 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
omg but can he be like "oh were you the firestarter?" That thought makes me laugh.
krasnaya_vdova: (Under Fire)

[personal profile] krasnaya_vdova 2017-08-16 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
He totally can be! Though Ava will probably be super awkward about it. It sounds hilarious to me, though. XD
buildingcastles: (pic#8032185)

[personal profile] buildingcastles 2017-08-16 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
Super awkward is Christian's life. She can think he is the weirdest fruitcake ever... and she would be right, tbh.
krasnaya_vdova: (Unsure)

[personal profile] krasnaya_vdova 2017-08-16 10:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha, we'll see! Ava has had very scant socialization, so she is pretty awkward herself once she's in a situation where she's out of her comfort zones. So they can be weird messes at one another?
buildingcastles: (pic#8032165)

[personal profile] buildingcastles 2017-08-18 01:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes please be weird mess pals with him. And he can show her small magic fails? He tries. That might at least interest her.

[personal profile] krasnaya_vdova 2017-08-18 05:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, she would definitely be interested. And look, she just accidentally set the residential building on fire, he can't be worse than her current track record. lol.

weird mess pals is definitely something I'm here for, though! This can only be great.

[personal profile] inebriety 2017-08-17 11:11 am (UTC)(link)
so you need someone to encourage him to set himself on fire?
buildingcastles: (pic#8032161)

[personal profile] buildingcastles 2017-08-18 02:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Hahaha yes okay that works too. He has a pretty bad streak of finding trouble and is nosy/curious to the point of endangering himself, so he might actually get along with sad Tony. Plus he is 200% less judgmental than Steve. Probably too accommodating, actually. It works.

[personal profile] inebriety 2017-08-21 10:19 am (UTC)(link)
so basically they'd enable each other's bad points

GOOD
