Name: Laura
Contact: catch me on plurk @ jojoveller U MAY ADD ME FREELY
What to Expect: work :grimacing: i teach middle school so i keep mysterious hours and don't shut up about weird things that happen to my classroom...... also, webcomics. also, weeb things. also, dishonored. also, mcelroys.

Characters Played: Emil Västerström | Stand Still Stay Silent | beautiful, shining red-esque
i also play reim lunettes

Character Personality: Emil is Small and Loud and Fussy..... he tries very hard but he's genuinely kind of dumb and not good at anything but not like okuyasu, i play different character types!!!! he's insecure and (ex-)rich and spoiled, dropped out of school because it was hard and joined the army so he could set fires for a living. he's from a post-apocalyptic world were basically only scandinavia still exists and people are plagued by a monster disease, and he has a Very Poor Understanding of what the "old world" was like... lmao. he's honestly very soft and sweet, but you have to get under a) insecurity, b) spoiled baby attitude, c) casual disdain for everyone who isn't his, like, two colleagues and Best Friend. please be his friend he's very lonely

Wanted CR: FRENS...... also he needs to learn practical life skills, please endure him long enough to teach him to look after himself. someone will have to hold him back from burning down the forest the moment he learns it's full of monsters, uh, hmm. yes. just look at him, he's got perfect hair and doesn't know what he's doing, what more could you POSSIBLY want....

Just Look

Name: Elia!
Contact: tuchanka | elia#6729 on discord! Add away!
What to Expect: Honestly, I mostly plurk about this game? Sometimes I'll yell about something I like, or I'll gush about my cute pets, but that's about it. Come chat with me!

Characters Played:

• Mogget (purrsuasively) | The Old Kingdom Trilogy | The worst shade of blue
• Lalli Hotakainen (ilves) | Stand Still, Stay Silent | A much better shade of blue

Character Personality:

God, but Lalli can be... difficult. He's used to scouting around the woods at night and sleeping during the day, so his people skills are, uh, practically non-existent? Catch him completely shutting down when there are too many things going on at once, or flipping soup into someone's face to let them know he's frustrated. He's learning, though! ...Slowly. His one and only friend—that he just made at the ancient age of nineteen—is certainly doing his best, so thank you, Emil...

Anyway, in short: Lalli is socially awkward and generally doesn't care about it, but he's slowly realizing that he actually wants to fit in. He's not sure how? He finds most people to be genuinely confusing, but he literally dreams about others telling him what a good job he's done/how amazing he is, so. He's a very talented scout! He's a Finnish mage (and it's confusing as hell)! He comes from post-apocalyptic Scandinavia, where trolls/spirits/Norse gods are REAL! He knows very, very, very little about the world at large! I mean, seriously—he was a flat earther until he saw a globe for the first time. He thought that horses were weird, ugly moose?? It's Bad.

Wanted CR: EVERYTHING TBH, but I'll try to be Specific...

• Patient people that want to be FRIENDS! Anyone who will put up with staring, long stretches of silence, and/or monosyllabic responses? Or loud, overly friendly people who will ignore Lalli looking at them like this and drag him along on many (mis)adventures.
• People who will try to teach him how to be a normal fucking human being. Tell him not to steal food off people's plates/hiss at annoying people/walk away from people while they're still talking/etc.
• People who will tell him wrong information on purpose. Like, he knows nothing about the world at large, so please draw weird chimera creatures and tell him they're real, or make up new scientific/historical facts and convince him that they're absolutely true. I live for this shit...
• Scouting buddies? His life kind of revolves around being an A+ scout, so he'll be out there patrolling/tracking things/so on and so forth... give him a job to do and he'll GET IT DONE (if he doesn't think it's a giant waste of time)

Name: Eli!
Contact: becoming or Discord at effulgence#1860! either works for me.
What to Expect: i normally plurk about game stuff, with some fandom and rl stuff from time to time!

Characters Played: natalie goodman | next to normal | red #ff3333!
Character Personality: natalie is a chronically sarcastic teenager who loves playing piano and making fun of people. she has pretty severe trust issues and is excellent at pushing people away, but she cares about people more than she might let on at first. she's book smart but prone to making Poor Decisions, and she can be pretty stubborn! blanket apologies for her endless sass and her temper, tbh. she's also been in awash for a while before, so she'll at least get to skip the whole getting acclimated period, probably.
Wanted CR: i'm down for any kind of cr, but here's some specific things i'd really enjoy!

- friends her age! it might take a while for it to get there because she's Bad at Friendship, but i'd really like for her to get some positive relationships with other teenagers.
- mentor figures!! same as the above irt it taking a while, but i always dig this kind of dynamic.
- equally sarcastic people that can share in endless banter, because that's her native language tbh
- negative cr! she can be pretty abrasive at times, and she tends to make fun of people as a general rule (though it's typically lighthearted unless she's upset), so i'd love to toss her at people who wouldn't tolerate that kind of thing!

[illequipped]

i was going to defend emil's honor here but what the fuck is mogget's blue actually

[ilves]

um? mogget's blue is beautiful and annoying, just like him

and i said a nice thing about emil! gosh!!

[illequipped]

it is certainly one of those things

you also linked soup trauma........ mean

[purrsuasively]

mogget's going to be outwardly annoyed, but inwardly pleased. come snark with him again, natalie...

[ilves]

you throw soup in someone's face ONE time... damn. cut him some slack

[illequipped]

that kind of sets the bar for all other interactions, i'm JUST saying

[ilves]

wow! i guess he's never fixing emil's hair ever again!

[illequipped]

finally his hair will maintain its perfect sheen without clammy forest hands getting on it

Contact: orangeCrates
What to Expect: RP stuff...lots of stuff about Zettai Karen Children and.....that's about it?

Characters Played:
Kaoru Akashi | Zettai Karen Children | Red
Jim Lakes Jr. | Trollhunters | Blue <-new character! so this is mostly for him, haha...

Character Personality: I actually was talking about apping someone more murder happy and ended up apping a really nice kid who is responsible, patient, takes care of his mom (who is a doctor) and can cook so like....yeah. ANYWAY. Jim is teenager who's been thrown into the middle of a centuries long conflict, with a job with a very terrible retirement package (it is a job for life...as in you get out when you die retirement is a lie). He has a some knowledge of supernatural stuff but more important than that is knowing that he's the sort of person who fixes his mom's culinary disasters behind her back without letting her know and also once boobytrapped his house with axes and crossbows and other sharp, dangerous things to battle an undead troll...and probably never considered how he'd explain it to his mom afterwards.

Also he's just very bad at saying no so if anyone wants to drag him into shenanigans he'll probably go along with it.

He also has a magical suit of armour+sword.

Wanted CR:
- FRIENDS. Other dumb teenagers to do dumb teenager things with! People he can play the straight man to! Other traumatized teens! Sibling like relationships! The possibilities are endless!
- Mentors! God this kid needs mentors...but he's had some bad experiences with father figures so...yes. Also someone lecture him about lying to his mom, please and thank you.
- cooking buddies. please someone lend him decent knives...
- Grumpy jaded people? His favourite sort of people. Okay not really so many of them have tried to kill him but somehow he endears himself to people.

[ilves]

yeah, okay... good luck with that, emil. go meet people lookin like a hot mess

[illequipped]

are you implying lalli is the sole reason emil looks this good

[ilves]

he HELPS

hey mods, when can we regain chewing gum... asking for a friend

[robitussin]

this is the snark that never ends, it just goes on and on my friends...... it's okay she understands the outwardly annoyed and inwardly pleased life, because she's also a cat deep down in her soul

i'm excited to play with you again!!

[illequipped]

hmm yes teenagers with super dangerous "well eventually you'll just die" jobs.... i see possibilities here, points to eyes points to you

[illequipped]

emil is never coming over bye!!!!

[esperimental]

Name: Eli/sha (I posted after another Eli!!! and there's an Elia?? elInvasion)
Contact: 173ELI could work! I'm also on healspls but that's mostly me RT-ing things and less RP... but still wink wink. Discord is on my carrd if you need it, but I'd mostly prefer to keep that a smaller list.
What to Expect: I don't understand memes and look up knowyourmeme. My boyfriend had to add a tiny footnote in his confession that he was actually asking me to go out with him because I'm a huge dumbass. BUT I LIKE ANIMALS. and animation.

Characters Played: Ritsu Kageyama | Mob Psycho 100 | Blueeee
Character Personality: Of all the characters I've played, inclusive of those with questionable morals, the 13 year old was the first to have actively continued negative CR. I don't even know. He's extremely chuuni and will kick everyone's ass. He'll kick his own ass. He's probably got undiagnosed depression and PTSD. He's smart but... not good with people. Despite this he was astoundingly popular back home, you know what they say about talented people to take advantage of I guess??
Wanted CR:
- He has like One friend whose name he remembers in canon. Please break past his frigid edgelord heart. I'm also going to have a field day having him misremember names until he Actually Likes You instead of just being [ ... ].
- I'm a bit ??? on if I want anything to be parental because... on one hand Ritsu would hate it, on the other he's really not telling his parents Anything about his problems so. could be good!
- big sibs will probably happen whether he likes it or not just accept him reminding that you'll never be his fav big sibling
- NEGATIVE CR GOD throw hands with this snarky child. it happens in canon all the time they don't care they'll fight these tiny teenagers. I mean, don't kill him tho
- if you got any useless dumbasses with bad self-preservation. god make him feel some kind of caring that he has to look out for them because he has nothing better to do

He can read fellow esper's auras, and I'll be adapting that over here! So anyone vaguely magical in nature or possessing an item of that could have that following their description, he can Tell. But I'll write it off as him just feeling somewhat unnerved (and well, being Awash, he probably can't see the color all that well) if you don't fill out the permissions post!
Oh and lastly, if you'd like to opt out of MP100 spoilers as season two is upon us, please just let me know! I can definitely avoid snide little commentary in narration.

[esperimental]

It's nice to be in a game with you again Orange Crates hehe. I'm not done with Trollhunters yet, so I'll just gently update you when I'm okay with spoilers in tags!

[ilves]

i'm excited to play with you again, too!! mogget will bring natalie a gross fish... maybe a dead bird? you know, a nice welcome back present...

[fineprinted]

ELIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII i can't wait to get cr with you, it's been so long huuu

tsumugi will try??? to get ritsu out of his shell?? which would be surreal since tsumugi knows another ritsu from his canon but at least this one isn't a vampire

[esperimental]

AFKDLAKFSLKFSLKFDS ritsTwo lives on

i mean id say ritsu isnt a saint either but i dont even know what happens in enstars it sounds like a school from hell in itself

[ilves]

it's fine, he'll just move in

[illequipped]

hmm you've discovered his weakness, somehow, so quickly, hmm
