I throw my hands up in the air sometimes


Welcome to [community profile] maskormenace's first ever
CR MEME!!


How does this work? It's easy!
    Make a thread for yourself or a comment with your character's name on it. Reply to that post with your filled out forms for organization's sake.
    Comment to other people! See if their answers fit anything you're looking for and if yours fit anything they are. Don't be intimidated, carpe diem, we like to party.
    Keep checking back! We strongly encourage you to track top-levels even, if possible. New characters may get accepted and post to this meme after today and we want to make sure everyone gets their fair shot.
    Play nice and have fun!
    ( THE BASICS )
    Name: Your character!
    Canon: Self-explanatory!!
    Character's (approximate) age: Or how old they appear.
    Character's powers: List and describe them!
    Is your character registered/will they be?: Why or why not! Maybe unsettled heroes will want to make connections with each other. Maybe registered heroes will want to team up. So on!
    Where does your character live?: What housing residence are they in? Meet your roommates if you haven't already, make plans!
    Are you looking for roommates?: If your character is currently housing alone, or planning to move out of their assigned housing. Is your character considering moving to one of our other cities? See who else might be doing the same!
    What is your character's job?: And are they sticking with it? Enjoying it? Coordinate with potential coworkers, employers, or patrons -- why not!

    ( THE DETAILS )
    RUNDOWN -- what are your character's skills, likes/dislikes, urgent needs?: What are they good at, what do they hate, what do they need (and so on) so that others know what they can offer you.
    What are your character's plans?: Either what they're doing as we speak or what you'd like to do with them!
    Does your character have a secret identity?: Since this can get confusing at times. Is your character a superhero with a public identity or do just a few people know who they are? List them, even!
    Is your character open for pairings?: Useful to know! Possibly.
    Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: If yes, how much and in what circumstances?
    Is your character interested in teams?: Registered hero teams are very well-received around these parts, as you might guess. If yes, coordinate with possible teammates and see if you can put something together!
    What kind of plots are you after?: Let the brainstorming commence. This can be as vague, specific, or "big picture" as you'd like.
    Anything else?: If you have anything else to add!

nelson did you know she's now the owner of the very last copies of your book in all of existence, that one of the reasons i carried them over was so that reveal would still one day be relevant

beautiful

the best I have at the moment in that regard is that next time they talk/log/whatever some of the things he says could have also made it nearly verbatim into the books as dialogue

what if they somehow end up talking about valentines

maybe the necklace that kanaya is going to literally wear every single time she's conscious and sometimes when she isn't could bring it to that

oh that seems like it'd be perfect! at least a good way to get them going in all the right horribly awkward directions

valentines even almost do that on their own

it's funny that for how central their relationships are to them, it hasn't really come up. well, it makes sense for nelson, but kanaya just needs the right opening to brag about how great her gf is

nelson says "he must be a lucky guy," she grimaces and corrects him. somehow this information never got communicated before.
retropolis: (oh no it's change)

[personal profile] retropolis 2014-02-15 06:14 am (UTC)(link)
it's so true

then comes the deer in the headlights moment when nelson has absolutely no useful advice about teenage girls
glowsferatu: omg (Oh Gasp)

what did he get himself into

i feel like this is probably not the first time he has had that thought around her

[personal profile] retropolis 2014-02-15 06:27 am (UTC)(link)
what did he get himself into, he knows nothing about teenage girls and valentines was dangerous, dangerous territory

I think "unfortunate life decisions continue" summarizes their cr well so far

the question is now how do we go about this-- although maybe it'd be simplest to do a thread on the log tomorrow
