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.

SHE HAS!!! Friends are hard tho ok. Back home (this comes first because it ties into how do TS friends), most of her closest friends end up being born out of a kind of necessity for trust, like over quests or in the middle of something dangerous. She doesn't really open up to people first. She and Percy started off basically finding each other obnoxious as fuck, and they came back from their first quest as best friends. Near death experiences do that for people, apparently. She finds herself trusting and befriending the rest of the seven (ie: most of the cast here now) over their linked existence in a prophecy, in which they wow you guessed it need to save the world. Her social life in canon hugely revolves around other demigods; she spent the formative years of her adolescence going to camp Half-Blood year round, so to her, that's normal and these people are her priority over any potential mortal relationships. But even that sort of as a hierarchy, of those she ends up getting closer to over training, her siblings, etc. The way she tends to make friends is beating them up.

in TS, two of her closest friendships on the turtle were developed the same way! She and Yelena were both alone from their worlds, and they sort of came together under a variety of circumstances that pushed trust on them. Annabeth didn't have anyone from home, and even though she knows she can work alone, she knows the value of allies, and she and Yelena just sort of started sharing what they knew with each other; there was a moment where they covered each other's backs in a riot, and that was before they'd gotten particularly close. It grew into a super strong friendship, like, Annabeth's affection for Yelena was on par with other demigods. Her friendship with Zatanna started over the fact that they both came into contact with the npc Eva and both agreed to serve as her spy, so lol, again, it began as a kind of necessitated trust, as Annabeth had no one else at the time; 90% of her closer allies had disappeared just before she got into contact with Zatanna. She found herself wanting to trust and believe Zatanna, because hey, they were in the same boat. So what started out as something risky also turned into one of her stronger relationships on the turtle!!

She's made a lot of other friends, to her own surprise, but she always seems to get closer to them when danger is involved; the people she ends up having these adventures with, they sort of prove themselves really quickly, and it ends up making her more open with them. She doesn't have to be cautious over getting closer, because they've already saved each other's life, or done something else similar. It also depends on how people treat her; if she feels belittled at all ok bye. She's really awkward about doing normal things, though, which ties back into canon too - she's used to the things demigods do and she's comfortable with herself there, so it's easier to make friends that way. Also people who understand what she's talking about, or people she can relate to interest wise, as there's not as much of that back home.

SO YEAH HER FRIENDS ON THE TURTLE she's made them through a variety of circumstances, none of which are particularly normal. But that's ok because that's like home. A lot of elements of turtlelife are like home in the WE ARE NEEDED TO SAVE THE DAY which I think makes it easier for her to do the whole friend thing, since even if they're not all demigods, they're still all in the same boat.


word vomits i have a lot of feelings on this

second question is forthcoming okok

WOW I REALLY HIT YOUR TL;DR BUTTON mO___Om

The way you describe this makes me think I definitely need to throw Willow at her if she gets in this app round. Buffy is all about making friends through saving the world, and Willow is smart nerd magic using type in her early 20's who sort of takes it as given that teenagers would be doing all the important world saving. So it'd be fun.

NOW GIVE ME MY SECOND QUESTION /whipcrack

[sophos]

Yes good do it I will just apparently hoard all your CR but throwing them at each other does really sound fun ALSO YEAH YOU HIT THE BUTTON AFTER I HIT SEND EVEN I WAS SURPRISED BY THE WALL OF TEXT CRY

I'M WORKING ON IT OK GOSH
