riverview: cr meme
Welcome to the Riverview CR Meme! Please fill out the information in the form below to whatever level of detail you find comfortable, then look around to find people to thread with or form CR with!
The CR meme is not mandatory but may be helpful for finding other people with compatible RP interests.

● threading preferences: what kind of tags you enjoy writing (brackets vs. prose, long vs. short, network vs. in-person, etc.)
● threading habits: what timezone you are in, tagging speed, when you're around, etc.
● about you: just a neat factoid or whatever else you want to say!

● about: write a bit about your character and/or provide information links to an application, permissions, other information source, visuals, playlist, etc.
● what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: let people know what type of stuff you're interested in playing with this character in the game's setting - are you here for exploration, action, slice of life, shipping, or a combination...?
● what plans you have for this character: what kind of things do you definitely want to do with this character? "winging it" is a totally acceptable response.
● shipping/smut preferences: if you are interested in shipping or smut, let people know what kind of stuff you would like to play. "not interested" is a totally acceptable response.
● what your character wants: what would your character be most interested in doing or what kind of cr would they like to have?

james flint ☠ black sails
● name: Roy
● contact: PM
● threading preferences: Brackets, not really a big prose person. I have a slight pref. for a longer bracket style but sometimes you just gotta throw out a short one to move a thread along and that's fine too.
● threading habits: I prefer to boomerang when and where possible. If I can't wrap a thread up in 7-10 days or so unless it's extremely character critical I'll probably ask to handwave the rest. I prefer threads to have some forward motion to them, and don't really like to do just idle small talk that leads nowhere. (Small talk that leads to better established CR is totally cool tho, just not the 'how's the weather?' type stuff.)
character
● name: James McGraw/'Captain Flint'
● age: Anywhere from 35-40
● occupation: He's a pirate captain that is absolutely going to masquerade as a carpenter.
● residence: communal housing floor 1/bed 5
● about: You know that line from PacRim 'to fight monsters, we made monsters of our own'? Welcome to Flint. Basically, he's a broken, fucked up husk of a formerly good man. He has done absolutely awful things in the pursuit of what he sees to be a Necessary Goal, he's made himself into a creature that others fear to cross. There is something absolutely animal in him that lurks behind a polished Londonian accent and a clever smile. That said, he hates the man he manufactured for this end, and will be glad to step away from it in Riverview in a misguided attempt at finding some 'peace'.
● what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: I'm 100 percent here for the CR. Flint is someone who's spent his lifetime getting everyone he's close to dead or so close to it as to make no difference. He needs friends, man.
● what plans you have for this character: Nothing concrete yet.
● shipping/smut preferences: I'm fine exploring it and seeing if anything comes of it. Flint is Canon Bisexual but leans more towards being homoromantic (otherwise known as 'It's Fucking Complicated') with Exceptions (well, 'Exception'. Singular). Then again, he's also massively repressed and about as celibate as the day is long, so. I mean. Good... luck?
● what your character wants: to Figure Shit Out. Obviously he's a bit outdated on the whole technological aspect of things, and Flint is too damn smart to let that stymie him for long. He's going to be engaging people with an eye to the future of the world. Nukes sound awesome, can he get at least three of them, he has a date with England. Also: fuck the aristocracy.
● what your character needs: all things being what they are, probably a fucking hug. Probably ten hugs. Someone please humanize him before he goes feral and lives in a cave.
● any open post/ic inbox links: inbox. Also: if anyone I tagged with on TDM wants to make our stuff canon, let's talk. I'm here for it.
● anything else:

Seriously tho you know how I feel about this CR already. I have a mighty need for our TDM threads to be game canon and if he needs hugs and humanizing you know where you can shove him. Maybe in exchange he can idk, help Wanda learn how to be more confident or swagger her way through her moments of uncertainty.
no subject
and yes he will teach her good things about how to gut a man with a marlin spike. it'll br gr8. steve rogers come collect your protege.
no subject
And help that sounds amazing and hilarious to me. I can only imagine any of the Avengers happening upon that particular lesson.

I'd be up for trying it, absolutely! Flint is honestly going to be a pretty mellow mass murderer, all things considered, because he's away from the Dumpster Fire that is Nassau and all his horrible machinations but if you'd like to engineer some Clash of the Titans esque CR we can always have them meet in a crisis and Flint can go all Do As I Say Or Else on him, which... I imagine Bucky might not take too well, given his history. Thoughts?

Are you caught up on season 4 at all (aka: do i need to worry about spoilers?) Because Flint is honestly in a pretty relaxed place at the moment and while he's not overly inclined to Making Friends at the best of times he's at least not going to be openly trying to beat kids up and steal their lunch money until the whole world fears him here either. Sadly I don't know your dude but I might track down his -- movie? Series? for kicks.
no subject
Anyway I am not caught up on s4 as I'm waiting to have some more episodes to watch in a row, which I might start doing next week actually. I am very much looking forward to it but also am kind of a binging person... But yeah I'm very up for anything here :D
And Adam's from a movie! It's. Utterly ridiculous, fair warning.
no subject
And that's totally legit. I've enjoyed S4 so far. I still think 2 was the strongest, but 4 isn't disappointing me so far except for a couple minor quibbles. Let me know when you sit down to binge and we can talk shop!
HOW RIDICULOUS ARE WE TALKING because I can handle goofy self referential ridiculous but I have a hard time with 'EVERYONE IS TAKING THIS 100 PERCENT SUPER SERIOUSLY but they really Should Not.'

But if you have something specific in mind I'd be willing to try down the line if it works in conjunction for where I want to go with his character.

I am really enjoying this CR so far, though I couldn't exactly tell you where it's going, or what it'll become.
Michael is also a pro at killing everyone he loves.
no subject
I'm definitely sitting and staring at your tag right now trying to figure that out, haha! God, I think that if he'd approached Flint while they were alone or in private it would be going VERY DIFFERENTLY right now but because it's like, a public spectacle (... to a dude from the 1700s anyway, gdmit Flint you drama queen) he's losing his mind. Meanwhile I'm sitting here like 'DON'T THREATEN TO SHIV THE MAN IN A PUBLIC PLACE, MAN.' Know that however much he currently resembles a hissing wet jaguar that may or may not just leave the premises entirely that I am very much enjoying this thread tho. c:
team 'everyone i loved is dead', man. it's a rough team to be on. complimentary ptsd and attachment issues for everyone.
no subject
Michael is a problem. He's the guy who has been smart enough, charming enough and talented enough for everything to more or less go his way. He has a very innocent god complex, and is very good, polite and reasonable until he doesn't get his way. Then it's temper tantrums and breakdowns. It doesn't help that he somehow turns everyone around him into an enabler. He wouldn't get away with half the shit he does if he wasn't cute about it.
I am waiting for your response will steepling my fingers. Also, Michael is no stranger to shivvs. Some of his best friends almost shivved him. Prison is funny like that. It's also not enough to make him avoid Flint in the future, so feel free to do whatever. I can roll with it.
Maybe there are two for one therapist specials in Riverview. They could buddy up.
