rubycity_ooc | CR/Plotting/Handwaving Meme

Time for another of these! You all know what to do by now, and we all love some good CR, don't we? You can either ask for/offer CR you'd like to play out... Or you can discuss what may or may not already have happened!

INSTRUCTIONS

♥ Post with your characters, one per comment or a catch-all. If you have any CR in particular you'd like to rally, mention it here!
♣ Go around to other characters and discuss ways your characters may have interacted in handwaved settings. This could be casual meetings at the pub, patrols they may have gone on together, hikes and explorations, or just whatever strikes your fancy!
♦ Come up with some backstory for friendships that might not have gotten played out as fully as you'd have liked. These guys are trapped on a floating island together, 24/7... You know they bump into each other! New CR is highly encouraged - you never know what might happen.
♠ Have fun!

PLAYER: Zorn
CHARACTER(S): Eridan Ampora
CURRENTLY: Settling in, he's still pretty new here. He's mainly been pissing his time away slaying beasts in the woods, because well. He's a troll and he has violent impulses and it's pretty bad when he gets bored.
CR YOU'D LIKE: ANYTHING. Which is unhelpful, but honestly, I would be okay with negative CR and the far more rare positive CR. Eridan is kind of a douche, and I would so be down for that biting him in the ass or something some time. He's pretty bored, so he's likely to start fights. I also wouldn't mind if he somehow made friends with someone who can stomach his shit attitude, that's always fun CR, but very rare because Eridan is hardmode when it comes to stomaching bad attitudes.
CR YOU WOULD NOT LIKE: NOTHING because that's lame. Gimme all the CR
ANYTHING ELSE? Eridan is a violent douchebag of a troll, he will probably be rude and indignant to your character even if they are nice as can be. Approach with caution.

...kind of tempted to throw Regulus at him and see who does better at being a prissy upper-class asshole.

Dude I love snob olympics like a burning. I would so be alright with this.

Perfect! *rubs hands in glee* This is gonna be fuuun!

Also, did I get this right on his Wiki that he's into magic? With Regulus being a Harry Potter wizard him being properly appreciative of wizards might even earn Eridan some grudging respect *lol*

Aaha yeah kinda! See Eridan is a bit complicated in the fact he LOVES wizards and stuff like that, but he also vehemently denies it in a way. Like a guilty pleasure more or less. He's also set on magic being fake and that science is the only real thing!!! Like, he can enjoy magic so long as it is regarded as some fake thing, and not believed to be real? He's very weird about this, especially when HE USES A WAND AND WEILDS MAGIC MORE OR LESS...

But he will probably internally be very taken with the fact Regulus is a wizard.

Oh goodness this is bound to be hilarious! Regulus has become pretty good at being accepting of science thanks to Jane Foster, but being told magic isn't magic at all is bound to send him into a right proper temper tantrum. Magic is the bestest thing ever and anyone who says differently is a stupid lying buffoon who lies! ~~and these horns are stupid you are the most ridiculous magical creature ever so there~~

Oh my god, being called a magical creature will probably piss Eridan right the hell off! Probably won't help him any when his species is Troll. But man, I will so look forward to the possible manbaby agetantrum they both will probably have. But yeah, Eridan thinks all magic is some measure of science and that "magic" is for the infantile.

Reg is going to have so much fun with Eridan being a troll. He hasn't talked to any trolls yet, though he's been around long enough that he would be familiar with the sight. Eridan insults his precious superior wizard blood, he insults Eridan's trollness - this is how beautiful friendships are made!

Yes, indeed it is. Oh, also I guess this is worth noting, Eridan has a very noticeable accent. He cannot pronounce the letter V, so I am sure that will help fuel Reg. In example, a word like vengeance, is wengeance. He is very easy to take seriously, I assure you. Wery serious.

Ahahaha this is getting better and better *giggling* Their arguments are going to be the most ridiculous thing ever. I bet they're both secretly going to have a lot of fun, too, but ewww, couldn't admit they're having fun with that guy

Trouble causing needs to happen :3c.

I FULLY AGREE. These two need to stir some shit.

All of the disapproving looks, all of them.

BUT THEY WILL HAVE SO MUCH FUN DOING IT.

YES THEY WILL. Shit's boring without a little havoc!

|D THEY ARE GOING TO GET ALL THE DISAPPROVING LOOKS. especially Dante. For encouraging this he is the worst.

I think you mean THE BEST. Honestly, Eridan doesn't need encouragement to do stupid reckless things. So, Dante can't go taking ALL the blame now! Leave some for Count Seadipshit over here.

I do mean the best, you're right. It will be glorious |D. FINALLY NOT HAVING ALL THE BLAME BE HIS yesssss. Really shouldn't mix half devils and trolls but it's too glorious not to.

I am right! It'll be great, and everyone will just sigh at them, but that's okay, no one can handle their swag. AND I DUNNO ABOUT YOU, but I think it's a perfect mix.

BTW I should add you on plurk.

I ALSO THINK IT'S A PERFECT AND GLORIOUS MIX. It's okay they'll keep themselves entertained |D.

YES DO IT.

Chie really liked the last Eridan that was here, and would be pretty confused if he didn't recognize her anymore. Not sure how that would play out, but it'd probably be funny. :D

I'd be down for it! Eridan will probably think she's a little daft for claiming to know him, but then again he kinda feels that way with a lot of people right now.

Ah ha ha! AND NOTHING CHANGED! XD Yes, let's do this!

Hello Eridan would you like to meet the one sassy Strider teenager who is possibly worse than Dave.

Also he should definitely meet the Dolorosa in person. She's very tall :V

Yes he would indeed. I long for Eri/Strider CR.

That too! Eridan is all of 5'4 so...

Yesssss. Strider/Ampora CR is always excellent.

Dol is uh.. 6'2" and that's not including the horns. That'll be interesting. XD
