CR/Plotting/Handwaving Meme

[rubycitymods]

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: Badge
CHARACTER(S): Phoenix Wright, Hiroshi, Soga no Tojiko
CURRENTLY:
Phoenix is neck deep in investigative work. Beyond just the Sephiroth investigation, he's also recently had a major shift in how he views the Overseers, which itself leads to new questions. He's currently living with the Feys, doing most of his work as undercover as he can. He might take a break for lighter things, though.

Soga no Tojiko is, as usual, bumming around, getting "drunk," making friends, and belittling assholes. She never really lives in any one place because she doesn't need physical comforts, and doesn't really have any standards to live up to. She's easy to approach as long as you don't say anything she thinks is REALLY stupid.

Hiroshi of late has been struggling a bit to find his place. He hasn't been as active as a result. If anybody wants to have CR with a somewhat traumatized nerd, I'm open.

CR YOU'D LIKE: Hiroshi is the biggest concern right now, as he really needs to interact with more people his age and do more active things. Phoenix is generally fine, but the more CR the better, and right now he's even functioning almost like a CR broker. Tojiko... well, who doesn't wanna meet a short-tempered ghost?

CR YOU WOULD NOT LIKE: I guess the only things I can think of are things that might be corrupting or constraining in any way.

ANYTHING ELSE?

[likesimpossible]

PLAYER: Kelly
CHARACTER(S): The Tenth Doctor
CURRENTLY: Ten's mostly just been rubbing shoulders with people, chatting about things, and just generally checking in with his friends. He's also been spending more time with Rose, trying to get things rolling in terms of their friendship, and well, it seems to be going alright. He can be found most often in the TARDIS, but he also frequents various places in the city, such as the library and the park.
CR YOU'D LIKE: Anything, really, but specifically, people he can get all science-y and geeky with, and that includes people with time and space travel experiences. But he generally likes everyone, so that leaves things pretty wide open.
CR YOU WOULD NOT LIKE: Honestly, I can't think of anything I don't want.
ANYTHING ELSE?

[gordianknots]

PLAYER: Meg
CHARACTER(S): Waver Velvet
CURRENTLY: Waver is preparing to head into the catacombs and do some exploring related to his and Phoenix's most recent joint post. He'll be making the call to form a team on 5 June, and then we'll be exploring from 10-15 June. (As a note, Waver will ic-ly be limiting the number of people coming, since he doesn't want to head underground in close quarters with a HUGE group.) The indomitable Captain Drake is co-leading this expedition.
CR YOU'D LIKE: owo all of it
CR YOU WOULD NOT LIKE: Not applicable.
ANYTHING ELSE?

[aworthyrival]

PLAYER: Desu
CHARACTER(S): Chika Funami, Parasoul
CURRENTLY: Chika is up to existential despair shuffling through her daily life, trying to stay out of trouble. Everything remains kind of weird, but weird in a way she's used to, and she's sort of at a loss as to what to do with herself. Can be found just about anywhere, though she steers clear of the park. Parasoul has been better about maintaining a sense of purpose--she patrols around town and does her best to research the city in an effort to understand it mysteries. She can often be found at the library or hittin' the streets.
CR YOU'D LIKE: Anything!! Friends, negative CR, all is good. Chika is always up to play some awesome table tennis with people.
CR YOU WOULD NOT LIKE: can't think of anything that would be especially unwelcome '-'b
ANYTHING ELSE?

[withoutadoubt]

PLAYER: Gorse
CHARACTER: Sora here!
CURRENTLY: Dealing with the veritable explosion that his arrival caused. Beyond that he's going to be exploring, trying to figure out what he can do, probably fighting monsters and Heartless and showing off Flowmotion like in his test drive.
CR YOU'D LIKE: Anything and everything! Especially though he's got a lot of negative CR right from the get-go, and while I'm 100% okay with that, some positive CR (ideally past the acquaintance stage, since Sora jumps past that stage quickly but I know other characters might not) to balance it out would be great too. I'm really really okay with anything though.
CR YOU WOULD NOT LIKE: Nothing really strikes me, except shipping stuff. He only just got here, it's way too early for that at the very least.
ANYTHING ELSE? I am going to be out of town/completely without internet next week for seven to ten-ish days (starting Friday) so just a heads up that anything taking place in that time frame will need to be backdated afterwards or postponed.

Additionally for those involved in said clusterfuck, ideally I'd like to figure out what the current situation for that is before I leave/if that'll have settled down by then or if I'll need to backdate stuff... basically I'd like to have a rough idea what I'll need to tackle first when I get back, if possible. This isn't something that needs to be sorted out right now but I'm leaving Friday afternoon-ish, so by then, ideally.

And finally...

[ergine]

PLAYER: Nyx
CHARACTER(S): Kohaku
CURRENTLY:
Kohaku has only arrived recently, so she's still coming to terms with the situation! Due to her various ~issues, adjusting is difficult for her, so without outside assistance, these efforts will probably be slow-going. As far as future plans go, though, I'd like to get her involved with the clinic? She has experience working as a live-in nurse for her employers and making herbal remedies, so it's the logical place for her to focus her energy.

CR YOU'D LIKE:
I'm mostly looking for stabilizing influences, particularly people that would be willing to take her under their wing and maybe let her...live with them. Or work as their maid. Left to her own devices, it's easy for her to destabilize, so yeah it'd be nice if someone else was interesting in providing some outside direction for her.

CR YOU WOULD NOT LIKE:
Nothing specific that I can think of? Like I said, I'm mostly looking to get her on her feet at this point, so things that would hinder that, I guess.

ANYTHING ELSE?


A maid you can trust.

[hatefully]

PLAYER: Sura
CHARACTER(S): Forte.exe!
CURRENTLY: Forte is not been active because I was silly enough to have apped him during the end of the school year, unsurprisingly, been keeping to himself and he'd been off in the mountains and the plains, slaughtering the monsters and occasionally heading back to the city when he has to. Characters could probably catch him lurking around the top of the Clocktower, the park, and floating above the city on the occasions he's around. He's also been checking the network and kinda watching... its drama.

CR YOU'D LIKE: ANYTHING OWO I'm not super picky! Go for it! On one hand, he is the sort to be a potential wellspring of negative CR because... I'm aware he has an um, frustrating personality. But on the other hand, I would welcome attempts to get positive CR with him. People trying to befriend him, enemies, people who he can fight, people who are persistent, people to annoy him, people for him to punch, etc, are all good.
CR YOU WOULD NOT LIKE: idk?? ... Don't expect him to be interested if you want romance, I suppose, that's the only thing I can think of

ANYTHING ELSE? I have been horribly inactive and/or glacially slow here and that's my own fault! My deepest apologies, and also my thanks to those who tagged that older post of his.

[entercheats]

PLAYER: Nena
CHARACTER(S): Chiaki Nanami
CURRENTLY: Still rooming with Kuzuryuu; pretty pleased that there are some people with working video games here to help appease her boredom. Other than that, she's not doing much except chilling in the apartment.
CR YOU'D LIKE: Every and anything!
CR YOU WOULD NOT LIKE: Romance. Feel free to flirt with her if you want, though. She'll just...not get it at all.

AT SOME POINT WE NEED A CHAT ABOUT EDGEWORTH'S LACK OF A SOCIAL LIFE SEPHIROTH AND THE BLOOD THING.

[omnishamble]

PLAYER: Wick(er)
CHARACTER: Gilgamesh (Archer), King of Heroes. (omnishamble)
CURRENTLY: Gilgamesh is finally going to get started on that personal greenhouse, which will snowball inevitably into the public works. As for the wall, much of that is still waiting on final map placement, but if you'd like in on any of these construction projects you are totally all more than welcome. Otherwise? He's just wandering around with Enkidu, most of the time. They travel frequently and often over pretty intense distances! When, you know, they're not sparring or drinking or whatever else have you. They're probably doing all three a lot, if not nearly at the same time. They also recently cleared out a little notch in the forest for them to fight in, but I doubt that'll confine them for very long. Instigating things in city is inevitable. Again. It is also very probable that he's being shadowed after by Archie much of the time. So, in short, if you ever want to know where Gilgamesh is? Ask Enkidu or Archie.
CR YOU'D LIKE: Any, really! I'm always up for CR that knows who he is/what he did, antagonistic CR, more neutral CR, CR that entails drinking buddies, fighting, etc. He's a pretty hideous dude, though, if the name isn't any indication.
CR YOU WOULD NOT LIKE: Can't think of any. Bring it.
ANYTHING ELSE?

[pocketmobster]

PLAYER: Asher
CHARACTER(S): Fuyuhiko Kuzuryuu pocketmobster, a tiny gangster from Super Dangan Ronpa 2, and Davesprite crowsicle, a glowing orange bird ghost rap ninja teen
CURRENTLY: Fuyuhiko just opened The Den, a little gaming/gambling corner he's operating out of Apartment 1. It's open to everyone but obviously, if people don't already know about it, it's pretty much impossible to stumble upon. He's also just lost Peko again, so he's throwing himself more into finding out more about the Overseers and how to get out of Ruby City to distract himself from moping. He's also going to go impress a fire lizard with Saber, Labrys, and I think Damian is coming?

Davesprite's roc Snoop Bird is getting bigger and more alert, so he doesn't need quite as much attention. That's freeing him up to take on more patrols again, and he can be seen often flying out of the city to hunt. He's also of course making a nuisance of himself towards newcomers from his girlfriend's canon. He's not up to anything out of the ordinary, really.

CR YOU'D LIKE: I like all CR, but for Fuyuhiko, I'd love to get him more CR with kids his age. Davesprite, on the other hand, would like more people to give advice to, since Dave's leaving the city.

ALSO IF ANYONE WANTS TO FIND OUT FUYUHIKO'S YAKUZA OR ANYTHING ELSE ABOUT HIS PAST hit me up, especially if you might be interested in framing him for some kind of awful crime.

CR YOU WOULD NOT LIKE: I actually can't get involved in anything too long-term right now as I will be leaving for seven weeks at the end of June.

ANYTHING ELSE? Fuyuhiko has a spoiler opt-out post here if you plan on playing Super Dangan Ronpa 2 and need me not to give spoilers/use spoilery icons.

[neverbeamemory]

PLAYER: Amie
CHARACTER(S): Sephiroth
CURRENTLY:
-Sephiroth will be back to patrolling the skies, rather than the streets, tomorrow as his telekinesis-anul punishment for killing Zack will be over. Expect the usual one-winged shape in the sky from time to time. Tifa is still missing, though he's so not-done with her yet (pending Matt's return from hiatus by 12th June) though am fully-expecting a Cloud-fight of some degree in the aftermath.

-He has attended the blood drive for taking enough of a sample of his blood for testing/scanning purposes, and to make sure that he's refused entry next time so there won't be any more sick vampires stemming from it. Though, his attention will be elsewhere anyway, once it comes around again.

-Upcoming Cast-plot. Once Tifa is retrieved all will be in place for Yuna (with the help of others?) to attempt to Send Sephiroth. Dates & Details are still TBC for it, except for the idea that it will probably happen in Apartment Bldg #2 since Yuna keeps squatting after Barret left, but the idea is that it irritates at the glue that keeps Sephiroth together and threatens the stability of the core of his being (very important considering this is a large part what keeps his consciousness in his present form) - so he flees the area. What follows is a saving-attempt-by-Yeul-going-wrong, (which I will probably take a two week hiatus in the middle of, while Sephiroth is mostly unable to interact, as I'm feeling a strong need to refresh currently) (more details here)

-Other than the above, Sephiroth in general spends a great deal of his time between reading, patrolling and training and not a lot else and if anything the spotlight that's been cast on him recently has done nothing but irritate. Inevitable as it might be, it's hardly as if Sephiroth has moved to do anything majorly detrimental to the quality of Life in the City as a whole. As a result, he'll be probably less forthcoming with information about himself, to anyone, for a while.

CR YOU'D LIKE: You were all warned about him, being the psycho that he is and Tifa's retrieval is only going to make this negative train of CR continue. There is also Grimmjow who wants to pick a right with him. Negative CR is what you get from him mostly but some more neutral-based CR wouldn't go amiss. Only problem is getting over the problem that is his ego.

CR YOU WOULD NOT LIKE: N/A

ANYTHING ELSE? (errrr. I'm a bit dry recently...)

[magicsprice]

I am amused at how Gold & Seph's CR is currently, I mean he doesn't really see the man negatively like others do, he's more on the fence between Negative & Positive so to speak. The only thing that would likely gain his ire/a negative response from him toward Sephiroth currently would be if Seph were to cause unprovoked (by them) harm to Alice, Jane or Xion.

So I guess currently, Gold is more of a neutral CR, given he doesn't really care what Sephiroth does in the city, so long as it doesn't threaten him and it doesn't threaten the trio of ladies he's taken under his wing.

I'd love to explore that more over time if you'd like to.

[yousickgirl]

PLAYER: Derse
CHARACTER(S): Smile | yousickgirl
CURRENTLY: Smile is still his usual murder-happy self but has also made a promise with Ib to come talk to her if he feels like hurting someone which may not last all that long. However as an attempt to get himself a life that isn't just killing people he's signed up to work as a Drone for Ivy. He's also keeping an eye on the whole Sephiroth business, if only because it's funny.
CR YOU'D LIKE: Anyone! I'd be interested in more negative CR for him but if anyone wants CR with a creepy, never stops smiling dream figment, I'd be happy to plot something!
CR YOU WOULD NOT LIKE: N/A
ANYTHING ELSE?

[neverbeamemory]

Naturally. Sephiroth is sitting on the start of a rather long, sort-of plot arc currently but there might well be a possibility in which he ends up needing Gold's help.

Can't say how, when or what exactly, but could be something for the future!

Though- I can't say if he ever learned Gold is helping Elena with her stigma, if that would be something that might aggravate his nerves. To Sephiroth, Elena deserves all of it.

[magicsprice]

Yes, I like the thought of Gold helping Sephiroth out (and possibly watching the rest of the city going WTF Gold?! when that's learned about. He's an opportunist definitely, the city will eventually find this out.)

Heh, amusingly to say he's doing that more out of curiosity than any other altruistic motives. He might eventually think more of Elena over time, but currently she's just a person he's got a vested interest in thanks to how much she knows, how willing she is to share the knowledge and that illness of hers is of an admittedly curious nature. Should she get injured, he likely would just ask how, possibly offer aid if it was nasty enough and that would be the end of it.

[frilliance]

PLAYER: Emily/Daisy
CHARACTER(S): Miles Edgeworth
CURRENTLY: Secretly investigating Sephiroth and going to the blood drive as a cover for him somehow obtaining Sephiroth's blood.
CR YOU'D LIKE: Edgeworth needs friends outside his castmates. He's not friend-allergic nor is he a cynic but it's more.....Edgeworth doesn't find friends, friends find Edgeworth. Fellow intellects would be good as would perky shounen heroes or teenage girls to pester him. Trolls are great! And it would be cool if, eventually, Edgeworth became some sort of unintentional father figure of a child/teenage character, ticking them off and wanting them to do the right thing and worrying about them a lot.

Enemies would be great too. If Edgeworth doesn't piss off at least someone in the city then I am playing him wrong!
CR YOU WOULD NOT LIKE: No death or smut.
ANYTHING ELSE? I have no GIFs to give you as I have just got a new computer. ;_; So have an Edgeworth magica icon being displayed instead!

[untilavalon]

PLAYER: Luc/Luciano
CHARACTER(S): Maya (missleadingquestions), Saber (here), Conrad (divampire), Virgil (bangbaby), and Sissel (ghosttrick)
CURRENTLY:
OFFICER PENDRAGONSaber is still doing the police officer thing, but she's going to be going on a little trip with Kuzuryuu and Labrys during the month to find dragons and fix her friendship with Labrys. This trip is independent of any other dragon-related trips I've had her talk about, so don't worry-- there's gonna be loads of opportunities. She's also at Waver's beck and call.

MAYA has her sister now and is likely going to spend the summer trying to figure out as much as she can about Hope's Peak and her friend's fate while also looking into building a more permanent small shrine.

VIRGIL is apparently helping build a generator. Really, he just wants a sandwich and some friends. He's really bored and misses school. Yeah. You heard me. He's feeling lonely and doesn't like that he can't have a secret identity anymore okay

CONRAD is finally feeling sort of better so he's going to try to redesign some of the signs and shit around the city, which Damian is inserting himself into. Conrad is probably also taking care of those numbnuts still

SISSEL is a cat is still doing his cat thing, meandering between houses and not being very impressed by anything.

CR YOU'D LIKE: all of it. there is nothing I do not want
CR YOU WOULD NOT LIKE: idk man
ANYTHING ELSE?

I am on a greyhound i do not have access to my fancy gifs I APOLOGISE

[crowsicle]

Re: clusterfuck--Davesprite will leave Sora well enough alone. He won't have given too much information away (since that would get confusing since Sora and Roxas have already talked to other people and Xion herself), but he also won't be actively like, in Sora's face about hating him.

THAT SAID Davesprite is actually pretty easy to win over, so if you'd like to turn their CR around before you go away, I'm game; or if you'd like to wait for Sora and Davesprite to have a Real Talk until we're both back (I'll be away for a lot of this summer), that would make a lot of sense, too, since he'll be avoiding both Sora and Roxas.

[frilliance]

Let's have some Steel Samurai Sunday meeting logs with Maya and Edgeworth!

Also, Maya should totally do a public network post going, "Friends wanted for a grumpy prosecutor!" or something along those trolly lines. Because Miles would be so embarrassed and annoyed.

[pocketmobster]

MAYA leave the Hope's Peak thing ALONE

YOU DO NOT WANT TO KNOW

[frilliance]

Sora could try and drag Edgeworth out of his shell? I NEED MORE PERKY PEOPLE POKING THIS LOSER!

[missleadingquestions]

wow that sure sounds like a suggestion she isn't going to take!!!!!!

[raindownthesky]

Fang will be returning near the end of June or so, and when she finds out what she's missed, there will probably be some words and hell to pay. Interested?

[all_onis_are_true]

Hiroshi needs to know you people. Even nerds need to socialize with people their age.
