THE TL;DR MEGA MEME BONANZA

Comment with a list of your characters, receive questions, or just tl;dr on your own unprompted! Here's some suggestions. ◘ What does your character think of mine? ◘ What goes on during our handwaved CR? How much handwaved CR do we have? ◘ Canon information, for those unfamiliar with your canon. ◘ All sorts of headcanon questions-- sleeping positions, childhoods, past sexual or romantic history, etc. ◘ Would your character date mine? ◘ If they were put under a truth spell, what would come out? ◘ Where do you want to go with your character, story arc wise? ◘ Give an example of their daily routine in Keeliai. ◘ Who do they miss most from home? Would they go back if they could? ◘ What kind of music do you listen to while tagging? What does your character listen to ICly? ◘ Elaborate on what you've been working on improving in your writing style lately. ◘ What would their daemon spirit animal be, as from His Dark Materials? ◘ What have been your favorite threads with me? ◘ What do their dragons look like in Flight Rising? And much, much more! Go wild! I recommend making a plain top level comment with just your list of characters, and replying to yourself to fill out things on your own.

How does Scott feel about being separated from home and family?

Also seconding your playlist question.

HMMM.

This is kind of hard because at the point he's pulled from in canon, he's only really just started connecting with the gaggle of kids he's supposed to be overseeing in the Future Foundation. So while he definitely feels a strong need to watch out for them and make sure they're all okay, they're not yet family-family if that makes sense? Mostly at this point he's still kind of angsting over Cassie's death and generally being useless so being on the turtle away from the people he knows isn't all too bad. He definitely does miss the people he knows from back home but he's never really had a concrete place of his own (he's low on the Avengers ranking, not really part of the FF, kind of does his own thing for a while, and even with the new replacement FF they're not all BFFs with each other yet) and being thrust into new situations is kind of a superhero thing so it's not too bad?

And going back to the whole angsting thing, he kind of feels like that he doesn't have too much to live for back in 616 Marvel universe. Yeah he's got the kids but only part of that is a genuine "I like these kids and want them to succeed" and part of it is still "okay I promised Reed I would take care of these kids so I should probably do that." Plus he's not the only one taking care of them and he trusts Jen and Darla and Medusa to take good care of them so he's not overly freaking out anymore. And I'm pretty sure he doesn't talk to his ex-wife any longer so nothing on that end. He supposedly has a sister he was on good terms with and I imagine he would like to see her but that's probably it.

WOW I DON'T MAKE ANY SENSE WITH MY ANSWERS BUT TL;DR he is actually mostly okay with being on the turtle and away from people he knows because he doesn't actually have much family/friends and thus he doesn't mind being separated from them.

As for playlists....I have been slacking really hard in making playlists for my characters. :c As a general rule of thumb I try to pick stuff that my character would actually listen to ICly but all the stuff Scott would listen to is from like the 70s and 80s and the only oldies I have on my computer are The Beatles (which he would listen to) so that makes it kind of hard.

But if I had to generalize, he prefers more rock-based stuff (John Cougar Mellancamp, etc) with maybe a little bit of jazz (Aretha Franklin) snuck in there. I don't have specific songs but now that I've realized my oversight I'm going to hunt through my iTunes library and make a playlist now.
