Meme | CR With Me | November 2013

[ironwood]

Hello, chelonauts! The CR With Me meme is back and ready for action!

When it comes to our CR meme, we do ask that you be as specific as you can! 'Our characters should team up to moon Eshai' is going to help establish an idea of what sort of CR you're looking for better than 'omg tag me.'

We're still using the modified form, including the two sections titled "Current Status" for a summary of what your character's been up to and "CR Goals" for the plotting and discussion of gaps in your character's CR spectrum that you would like to fill!

CR With Me Form:

<div style="font-family: Impact;font-size: 30px;color: #bf0206;padding-top: 0px;padding-bottom: 0px;">PLAYER NAME HERE</div> <font face="georgia"><b>CHARACTER:</font></b> <b><font face="georgia">CANON:</font></b> <b><font face="georgia">PERSONALITY:</b></font> Please give us a brief description of your character, to give anyone canonblind an idea of where the CR might go! <b><font face="georgia">CURRENT STATUS:</font></b> Optionally, you can give a quick rundown of what your character's been up to in the game and their short-term goals. <b><font face="georgia">CR GOALS:</font></b> What's your dream CR to obtain this month? Do you want to work on developing current CR or splash into something new? <b><font face="georgia">SCENE-DOS:</font></b> What sort of things are you looking to write with this character? Are you a prose sort of person or action spam all the way? Do you prefer network interactions to face-to-face? Do you like angst, fluff, drama, plot-based scenes, all of the above? <b><font face="georgia">SCENE-DON'TS:</font></b> What sort of things are you a little more lukewarm about in regards to this character, or would rather flat-out avoid? Do you absolutely hate writing negative CR? Would you sooner chuck you laptop out a window before you write one more slice-of-life thread? All those considerations can go here. <b><font face="georgia">ADDITIONAL:</font></b> Anything else you might want to add that doesn't fit into the above goes here.

The CR forms can be posted as top level comments to the post, so don't worry about needing a subheader to post them under. Have at thee, my lovelies!

Comments

Ellie

CHARACTER: Pavel Chekov
CANON: Jim Kirk's Poor Life Choices: The Movie
PERSONALITY: Chekov's generally pretty friendly and good-natured. He loves physics and space and will talk your ear off about it if given the chance. He'll make friends with almost anyone, but he's on guard for people trying to manipulate him or take advantage of him. That's not to say he always catches every bad intention, if your character is tricky enough. There are definite rage buttons your character could hit-- bullying someone, messing with his friends, badmouthing his captain-- but he's usually really friendly and easygoing. Also he likes to adopt people who seem like they need a friend because he knows that feel. :c
CURRENT STATUS: He's lost his memories of the Enterprise and crew until... the 18th, I think? I'll have to check. So that's bummed him out a lot and put some stress on him. But the snow will cheer him up a lot and he'll probably run around in it like a dork. Does your character want tips for snow fun? Russians invented having fun in the snow.
CR GOALS: I love all the cr. Just. Anything. Negative CR, positive CR. I'm not picky and he's flexible enough that I can work with anything.
SCENE-DOS: I'm pretty cool with anything. Actionspam, prose, network, slice of life, serious CR building.
SCENE-DON'TS: I have no idea. Like I said, I'm good with anything with this dork.


CHARACTER: Dick Grayson
CANON: Batman Recruits Teenagers With Attitude To Fight Crime
PERSONALITY: A smartass who's too smart for his own good. He's usually relatively friendly and chatty. He fights for the Greater Good and because his parents are dead. Mostly the first one now, though. Dick tends to keep people at arm's length because of the secret id thing and because of what's happened to him here. Also trying to talk down to him will likely end with your character getting sassed to next Tuesday.
CURRENT STATUS: His mental state has been declining for a few months now. He's passed his one year anniversary and is about to have his second birthday here (December 1st!). Once he recovers from something, he's hit with something else. So he's a bit more reclusive and a lot more paranoid than he was when he arrived (which is saying something). Still, he's good at reading people so if your character is on the up-and-up, he'll be likely to be friendly, at least. Also his girlfriend has amnesia and the closest thing he has to a big bro went crazy for awhile.
CR GOALS: Cross-canon CR please. Please. Negative, positive, whatever. I just desperately want more cross-canon CR with him because he's stagnated a lot in that regard.
SCENE-DOS: I do best with one-on-one logs that have a vague point to them. Slice of life is fine as long as there's a purpose (i.e. getting to know someone better).
SCENE-DON'TS: I'd like to avoid anything too heavy with him right now. He's having a hard time and he'll revert to a hermit if it gets too much worse. :c
ADDITIONAL:

[dunhaming]

WE SHOULD DO SOMETHING WITH THE ARCHIVE AND CHEKOV. Tiny science and math people. Especially now that he's not a ghost-y person so they can actually interact.

[starcharter]

He will adore her. And then the Archive is adopted by the entire Enterprise crew oops.

[dunhaming]

Except she secretly adopted them because she has all of Jim's memories and he watches over them so now she wants to watch over them too with her freaking behemoth amount of magic... Pretty much the entire Enterprise crew has her eternal protection yeah.

SHE JUST WANTS TO BE FRIENDS WITH THEM ALL.

[starcharter]

I could make an 'in Soviet Russia' joke right now but those are kind of old.

YES FRIENDS FOREVER YESS.

[dunhaming]

Oh my god in Soviet Russia jokes that's too perfect.

[hackingyoursensors]

I have to resist the urge to make them so often.

[dunhaming]

You should just do it anyway tbh.

[survival_isnt_living]

Mrrh, I wish I had more and more useful things to offer in this regard. But I'd like it if at some point in the future--not now, if you want to avoid heavy stuff--Robin and Septimus could talk? They have some stuff to maybe chat about.

As far as light goes, though, she's not cross-canon but Lois and Dick are hilarious together, and 'let's go adventuring' is totally a Lois prescription for being down in the dumps. (Never said it's a GOOD one, but...)

[starcharter]

We haven't have a Sep and Dick or a Lois and Dick thread in a long time and this is a huge shame. :c If Lois wants her little lackey to investigate with her, he'd be all about that.

[backwordscompatible]

Shh I'm totally sleeping right now but SHE'S GETTING HER MEMORY BACK FIRST THING IN THE MORNING and I am tagging your inbox with that. Please don't hate her, boyfriend person guy.

...also, things with Aya. Because Science.

[starcharter]

He won't. :c

YES OMG. He's already fascinated by gls

[langsyne]

Does Chekov want to come engineer a badass snow fort with Scott? Because there is clearly no point in building something if it's not going to be built well.

Also I don't have any ideas for Dick unfortunately but technical question! Is it okay if I assume Barry knows Dick's real name (due to comics!Dick) or is that something you'd rather not have me do?

[starcharter]

Well he can't let someone engineer an epic snow fort without a little help!

Yep, that's fine to assume. <3

[andaway]

Let's do thiiiiiiiings! Dick wanna tell mama about your girlfriend not remembering you?

[starcharter]

He's going to need some quality time with Supermommy after all of this. ;; People disappearing is a big NO for him.

[ironface]

Isabeau never was one for playing in the snow. I guess Chekov will have to show her the error of her ways.

[starcharter]

Yes, yes he will. He'll show her the art of the perfect snowball.

[ironface]

He may or may not have to forcibly drag her will he be up for that should the situation arise?

[starcharter]

Yep. He can be very determined when he wants to be.

[ironface]

Excellent.

[asoothingvoice]

Would you by any chance be interested in CR with Jor-El for either of them, even though you're hoping for cross-canon CR for Dick? I know DC-related doesn't quite count for that sort of thing.

[starcharter]

I would love some CR with Jor-El. ♥ (And honestly I just want new CR for Dick.)

[asoothingvoice]

Hmmm. ...How much would you mind a backtag to the trick-or-treating?

[starcharter]

That's fine! I might be a tad slow but I want this cr so much omg.
