Godot

[beenwaitinglong]

( THE BASICS )
Name: Godot (his real name is still a stubborn secret... ask his girlfriend)
Canon: Ace Attorney
Character's (approximate) age: 34
Character's powers: Hypermetabolism (immunity to poisons, drugs, alcohols, etc, etc), toxin manipulation (which he refuses to use.)
Is your character registered/will they be?: Registered
Where does your character live?: Currently in the process of moving into a private apartment
Are you looking for roommates?: Nawp
What is your character's job?: Public defender, city of Heropa

( THE DETAILS )
RUNDOWN -- what are your character's skills, likes/dislikes, urgent needs?:
Skills: Coffee and everything to do with it, knowledge of the law, a defense attorney of some renowned and also a former prosecutor, pop philosophy, amateur poetry, and general bullshitting
Likes: Coffee, being incoherent and mysterious, coffee, helping those in need (especially troubled youths of all stripes), and coffee
Dislikes: Criminals (especially certain types), cruelty, people making life difficult for others for no real reason (it is funny because he is a hypocrite), his medical condition, wearing a toaster on his face (it's for the medical condition, you insensitive dicks)
Urgent Needs: some goddamn therapy
What are your character's plans?: Just taking life as a public defender a day at a time while he tries to sort out his insanity.
Does your character have a secret identity?: Just his real name and his former life as a defense attorney, which are traumatic subjects
Is your character open for pairings?: Already in a committed relationship with Mia Fey, though I wouldn't be opposed to someone getting an unrequited crush on him
Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: Oh my yes. He's in fragile health as it is and I hope to do something with that soon...
Is your character interested in teams?: No.
What kind of plots are you after?:

- Any sort of legal plots. Godot is working as a public defender, so he's technically the last resort for characters in need of a defense (in a city crawling with defense attorneys) but I love any kind of legal plots regardless.

- Putting the dope in mortal peril. Godot is registered and working for the government after all, and I'd love to put him in the path of any criminals who might take an interest in that kind of thing.

- As mentioned, Godot is especially good at dealing with troubled youth. He likes kids, and troubled kids especially.

- Anyone else who likes coffee- particularly to a comically exaggerated degree. Godot is your king. Or at least some manner of high-ranking peerage.

- Because I'm 12, I enjoy relationship drama. Godot is dating the incredibly hot Mia Fey, but he's also pretty insecure in himself, and would turn into an absolute jealous bitch if anyone else made eyes at her. So go make eyes at her.

- Anything else you can think of! I love ot plot, so if you have any ideas, do let me know.

Anything else?:

[opticblasts]

i'm solely responding to this because the icon you used for your header pretty much demanded it

similar taste in eye apparel is clearly a good basis for cr right

[beenwaitinglong]

You know I was thinking the EXACT same thing when I saw Scott show up?

Sadly Godot cannot shoot lasers out of his, it is actually there because he's blind and has no other cool features. But seeing another device like his will totally intrigue him.

[earnedmystripes]

we talked about doing something with godot's health at some point, if you still wanna!

i'm also down with doing something else in the meantime if you have any thoughts 'w'

[beenwaitinglong]

Yesss I'm trying to figure out what that is still. He's going to be incredibly unpleasant about it, too, hahaha.

[yatagarasu]

/COMMENTS HERE but I want CR with both Godot and Trucy. Trucy and Kay can be friends and swap embarrassing stories about lawyers and pick people's pockets before giving them their stuff back, and Kay can try to copy all of Godot's coffeenese and mangle them up and WELL SHE'S TECHNICALLY TROUBLED.

[beenwaitinglong]

Absolutely! Trucy and Kay can be the worst influences on each other.

Re: Godot

[chiefdefense]

Yes hello where do you want me

[beenwaitinglong]

FAR AWAY FROM THAT PRICK MUSTANG

Re: Godot

[incendere]

Hello yes I would like to flirt with your girlfriend.

And get to know you better.

But mostly your girlfriend.

[beenwaitinglong]

That'll go well.

But no oh god do it it'll be hilarious

[huntergames]

hello housemate. sasha was told not to touch his coffee.

... she's probably going to try and touch it.

[beenwaitinglong]

Look whatever Gabriel told you about him being an insane coffee-hoarding lunatic is wrong. Gabriel fucking ruins it with sugar all the time and deserves whatever he gets

Yomiel

[vengefulshades]

( THE BASICS )
Name: Yomiel (aka "Sissel" aka "The Manipulator")
Canon: Ghost Trick
Character's (approximate) age: Mid-20s physically. Actually immortal.
Character's powers: Immortality (his physical body cannot age or be harmed in any way), possession (can leave his body as a ghost and inhabit other objects), manipulation (of inanimate objects, animals and people, lol)
Is your character registered/will they be?: Unregistered and on the lam, currently
Where does your character live?: He's hiding out at the Devil's Nest in Maurtia Falls... or at least, his body is hiding there. His ghost is all around and about.
Are you looking for roommates?: No
What is your character's job?: Formerly a systems analyst in Heropa. Currently, a criminal at large

( THE DETAILS )
RUNDOWN -- what are your character's skills, likes/dislikes, urgent needs?:
Skills: Computers (an expert hacker, programmer, etc), infiltration (as a ghost), information-dealing, forcing people to do things against their will (but only for a good reason)
Likes: Computers, cats, brief snatches of feeling "alive" (accomplished by possessing others), people who are sympathetic to his plight
Dislikes: Cops, prosecutors, politicians or any other authority figures, self-righteous people, anyone currently trying to catch him.
What are your character's plans?: After his crime spree shenanigans, Yomiel faked his death and fled to Maurtia Falls, where he is now working for Greed. He is recognized as a criminal by the government, though he'll actually be laying off the criminal acts for a while until the coast is clear. Still totally open to having him personally bother someone or work with other criminals as part of a mission for Greed.
Does your character have a secret identity?: "The Manipulator" he didn't make it up okay he would have gone with something WAY COOLER not really
Is your character open for pairings?: Good luck with that. Though again... I'd love some kind of twisted unrequited thing.
Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: Yomiel literally can't be harmed. As far as harming others goes, I'm totally open to it, but he has to have a good reason to do so.
Is your character interested in teams?: Not unless you work for Greed.
What kind of plots are you after?:

- Shady plots with fellow criminals. Yomiel is working for Greed at the moment, so anyone who has contact with him has an easy way to get into Yomiel's company. I am also up for having him establish some criminal connections on his own, but he is thoroughly uninterested megalomaniacal types or people who are evil for evil's sake.

- Friendship, awww. Yomiel's a dick but he is also desperately lonely and will appreciate anything he sees as people genuinely liking him and being his friend.

- CASTMATES OH GOD

Anything else?: It's kind of confusing because Yomiel has been dropping all kinds of hints to different people. Some people know him as Sissel (and know that Sissel is the Manipulator). Others know him as Yomiel (but NOT as the Manipulator.) The fact that the Manipulator's name is Yomiel is not public knowledge at all.

Now here is a Pomeranian opening a door with his face (play Ghost Trick, seriously.)

Re: Yomiel

[redhairring]

MISSLE IS BEST DOG and man I need to finish that game.

anyway, I would love more Yomiel and Hans cr because Hans is just impressed and grumpy that Yomiel has all the cool powers and is like ten times better at this 'manipulative douchebag' thing than he is.

[vengefulshades]

GOOD DOG BEST FRIEND

And Yomiel has a good time messing with Hans, so it all works out just swell.

[selfimage]

WE HAD AN INTERESTING TALK ABOUT YOMIEL WANTING TO SCREW OVER GODS AND THEN HE GOT ARRESTED

SOMEONE WANT CUPCAKES IN PRISON?

[vengefulshades]

HA HA JOKE'S ON YOU HE CAN'T EAT

Also he actually didn't get arrested yet. He faked his own murder, escaped, then manipulated the red tape to steal his corpse back, the tricky little bastard.

But yeah these two would be a riot together in some manner.

[smarterphone]

Well, I've got Light, who's already made up his mind that this Manipulator guy is a criminal that takes advantage of other people, soooo there's negative CR for you right there. He'll want to take part in any active investigation hunting Yomiel down, so there's that!

I ALSO HAVE AIDEN HERE whom is also a prodigious hacker. He's a vigilante type, but they thing is, he's also willing to do what's necessary to achieve his goals, even if it means breaking a few of those things called... laws. He rides a fine line between vigilante and flat-out criminal, so he may be more sympathetic to Yomiel's cause IF they get a chance to interact? (Aiden would draw the line at flat-out murdering innocent people, or hurting people just for the sake of it, but other than that he lives in a gray area.) But his number one priority is finding a way to get home, and if that means doing a few shady things to achieve it, then it's not an issue.

[vengefulshades]

Faaaantastic. Yomiel is really just rolling his eyes at all these hero-types... and he does enjoy fucking with them as a hobby.

Aiden sounds a lot like Yoms in that respect, actually- it's not like he's out killing people for a laugh or just being a prick for no reason. I'm sure there's a way for them to meet... like hacking something at the same time or something like that.

[hoboagogo]

If Yoms ever wants to like. Be a puppy or kitten for a family or something, Shinji can totally hook him up with a depressed teen who also wants/needs a reason to live.
come on just laying on this sad 14 year olds lap, purring both their troubles away.
/best youth-counselor aw yeah

BUT IN REALITY, I super adore the CR that they've sort of built, and I'd love to expand on it-- though with Yomiel IN HIDING and the like, that would pro...bably be difficult. But I do like how similar they are, in knowing what it's like to be suicidal/wanting to just disappear, not wanting any sort of bullshit eternity afterwards, et cetera. That familiarity with hating yourself so goddamned much--

I think they'd be either incredibly unhealthy bros to each other, or surprisingly good, hahaha.

(also i don't have the game but I read through the awesome LP on lparchive and jfc such a good game. SUCH A GOOD GAME.)

Trucy Wright

[everylittlething]

Oh thank god a character who isn't drowning in manpain

( THE BASICS )
Name: Trucy Wright
Canon: Ace Attorney
Character's (approximate) age: 15 (almost 16)
Character's powers: Perception/kinetic vision (ie: she can totally see when you are lying or nervous,) summoning objects by pulling them out of things.
Is your character registered/will they be?: Nnnoooot sure yet. Her dad is not, I am not sure if she will be.
Where does your character live?: With her father Phoenix, currently in Residence 25.
Are you looking for roommates?: Not at the moment
What is your character's job?: Part time 9th grader, full time professional magician!

( THE DETAILS )
RUNDOWN -- what are your character's skills, likes/dislikes, urgent needs?:
Skills: Stage magic (she is prepared to perform at literally any time), general cleverness, good business sense, being adorable and friendly and making friends with people
Likes: Magic and anything even remotely similar to it, sweets, being onstage, cute boys (don't tell her dad), legal procedure, slumber parties
Dislikes: Mean people, people who don't believe in magic and ruin it for others, overly-serious people who don't warm up, spiders
What are your character's plans?: Going to school while working on her magic business/the Wright Anything Agency on the side. Making friends with everyone. Finding someone to teach her to drive because her dad's a lame-o and so is Apollo.
Does your character have a secret identity?: Oh, she wishes. But she does have the Amazing Mr. Hat.
Is your character open for pairings?: Omg YES with other teenagers. I would love for Trucy to get a cute high school crush on a boy and witness the bizarre way she decides to flirt with them.
Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: Trucy is ripe kidnap-bait, but let's discuss hurt before it happens. She would never hurt anyone herself.
Is your character interested in teams?: Absolutely! Any good talent agency needs a good team of talent!
What kind of plots are you after?:

- Teenager stuff. Trucy is very mature for her age but still susceptible to things like cute boys, cool superhero crimefighting teams, a desire to hang out at the mall and eat junk food, etc.

- Friends of all stripes, her own age and older. She's very friendly and cheerful and loves to make people smile.

- Anything involving her dad, Phoenix Wright, her close friend Apollo Justice, or her uncle-by-proxy Miles Edgeworth. If you have beef with any of these three, Trucy will be right on your case.

Anything else?: I can't handle this girl's cute

[earnedmystripes]

kotetsu is frands with edgeworth, if trucy wants yet another papa in her life

[godly]

oh my god HI IT'S ME AGAIN i'm so sorry

but i saw this comment too and was reminded about how I should toss Light at Trucy someday. She's just so cute omg.

Light's a couple years older but he's still in the teenager age bracket, so there's the potential for teenage buddies there? Plus he lives in the same house as Edgeworth so there's also potential for them to meet that way?
