CR With Me | May 2015




hey! it's time for a cr with me meme!

Welcome to the bi-monthly edition of the CR Meme! Now that we've gotten settled into the new storyline, it's time to start heating things up in the big turtle city.

For players who've joined us since our last meme, these ~bimonthly memes are our opportunity to help establish an idea of what sort of CR you're looking for your characters. Because of this, we do ask that you be as specific as you can when replying to this meme! 'Our characters should team up to moon Tu Yunxu' is more useful than 'omg tag me.'

We have two helpful 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! We've also got a section for indicating what kinds of CR you're especially looking for, as well as types of threads you're not interested in.

This month, we have a special addition called Landfall Plans: Zeshora Edition. Tu Vishan will be landfalling to the continent of Zeshora for the first time since the Foreigners appeared in this world. A scattered island chain, much of its former civilization is said to be now underwater.

(More information will be coming in later OOC posts about the details of the landfall, so this is just for general plottings.)

Ruddy


CHARACTER: Hiro Hamada
CANON: Big Hero 6
PERSONALITY: To sum up: he's a wired little shit. He is also a genius. Hobbies include robotics and mechanics and general making stuff out of whatever he can get his hands on, sometimes not sleeping like a dumbass, getting into trouble and giving his brother a headache. He's also simultaneously a sad and confused little shit because his bro died and left him alone (see more on how that's going in the game below). He gets excited about machines and robots and stuff and also sometimes gets in trouble with the law and breaks rules so yeah. Fair warning: he can be terrible and a brat.

CURRENT STATUS: The Hamada bros are currently in a nebulous "moving out of the hotel/moving in with Callaghan someplace" state, since their Aunt vanished after the festival and plans fell through. since about mid-April Hiro's been making a few juulans here and there alongside Callaghan, working doing general fix-it and handyman stuff on tech, mostly for Kedan, but he can do this for player characters too. Also, Tadashi found out he's dead, and it was bad, and Hiro feels pretty bad because his bro feels bad and ugh, so it's awkward right now. Padding around his bro like so many eggshells and just. Yeah.

In light of the current rampant muggings and an alarming encounter with Keeliai's ~shadowshifter~ (who is, actually, using Hiro's own tech and wtf is this), Hiro is putting his energy and spare time building himself taser gloves. You heard me. As of May those are pretty much completed and in play, though he's still testing them and there's bugs to work out.

Current plans for the upcoming month:

1) He's looking for more info about the shadowshifter but is keeping that and his involvement w/ the stuff the guy's using on the down low, considering the metalworkers are literally up in arms over it. Pretty much he's only told Sokka, and obviously Tadashi.

2) He's going on an adventure with Stork and Tony. This will probably end poorly.

3) I still have to talk to castmates about the details, but basically through May Hiro and Callaghan (and Tadashi?) are working toward expanding the handyman stuff into a scrap/junk/tech shop of some sort, a centralized location where the tech-minded folks can come to get parts/materials/scrap, repairs, etc instead of scouring the markets (hence a slight markup on goods, covering the time and energy Hiro & co. spend finding/buying/fixing/building stuff themselves). The idea is still in the works and up in the air atm.

CR GOALS: I'm open on possibilities this month, tbh. Would like to make Hiro some new friends and get him out exploring the city more (except for fourth wall he's had a LOT of hotel threads) so yeah! Other than that I'm pretty flexible and I'm sure plans will develop as the month progresses.

SCENE-DOS: I am heeeeeella outta practice with prose, so in general I prefer actionspam that may as well be prose inside brackets, but having been here for about six weeks now I've been getting a lot of workout on my prose tagging and getting back in the swing of things. So actually, at this point, I can do either.

Anyway tho: I know a whole bunch of my log threads (mostly in-cast stuff) have been in the genres of angsty and dramatic the last month and ngl I like but I also like fluffy and plotty stuff too so please come make friends and do dumbshit with him. All in moderation. I am also 100% on board with any negative CR, because Hiro's a shit and probably has an easy time earning it.

SCENE-DON'TS: Nothing turtle-specific, really. For a general idea of my preferences you can look over the permissions in his journal, but the tl;dr is no gorey stuff and no shippy stuff because hi 14 y/o here.

LANDFALL PLANS - ZESHORA EDITION: Actually, I've never been here for a landfall before, so I'm gonna wait until we have more details on that! I am open to suggestions for the moment, though.

So when Hiro first appeared, I wanted CR. And then I failed at tagging him.

But I still want CR. He and Toph have way too many similarities not to have CR.

I feel like they could pull some kind of epic scheme at some point, someday, if they get along -- probably for no one's benefit but their own.
bigdamnhiro: (scheming)

[personal profile] bigdamnhiro 2015-05-02 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
omg yes, they're compatible in all the best/worst ways and I can see them enabling each others' childish little shit tendencies. Also pulling some kind of huge con and getting in trouble for it, probably. I absolutely wanna plot something like that, so we should do it. I'm planning a network post where he'll be advertising his lil side job business thing like a used car salesman so there's that and -

Other than that he'd be thrilled if she could in any way help him bend metal parts, or something, or just generally be into the whole metalbending thing once he realized the ways it could be used. And apparently we're putting Tadashi on blacksmithing duties soooo......

Also, since Sokka's apparently looking into the masked man stuff: would have to talk to TML about it, but if Sokka shared any info about that with Toph I'd be okay with that. It'd be one way to follow up on that little plot thread and Hiro's still trying to figure out what's going on with that, anyway.
seismometrics: (stretch)

[personal profile] seismometrics 2015-05-06 04:44 pm (UTC)(link)
The scrap metal business? She could so get behind that. At the very least, it'll be a good in for them to connect! But yes, please, make use of her metalbending abilities. That'll definitely please her. ;)

And so will con enabling. This must be a thing. I love it.

Sokka did share some stuff with Toph offscreen, and I *think* they went Yokai hunting together? (This is where I facepalm at myself because I never did get in contact with Yokai's player like I was supposed to. . . . Let me do that. >.>; )
bigdamnhiro: (Desk)

[personal profile] bigdamnhiro 2015-05-07 11:10 pm (UTC)(link)
They can make parts...go on 2spoopy adventures in the mines and find old mining stuff to melt down...there's a lot of stuff they could do with that.

Hiro is not above pretending to be sad orphans or something to scam some kedan - "HEY SO WE LOST OUR HOME AND OUR PARENTS AND MY SISTER'S BLIND PLS SPARE SOME JUULAN" or probably something more convoluted and ridiculous

I'd go talk to Mindy, I'm sure she's fine with figuring out that kind of stuff - and if Toph wants to drop by to ask Hiro what else he knows or has figured out about the masked man, that'd be fine.

I absolutely want CR with Hiro and Deon - gonna collect the BH6 cast because ROBOTICS - and also I really liked how Hiro and Gene worked in that one thread. Maybe we can have those two bump into each other?

[personal profile] bigdamnhiro 2015-05-02 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
Gene and Hiro CR is definitely something I wanna follow up on. Also, dude, he's totally getting your boyfriend in trouble doing black market dealings, probably, so there's that. I have no idea how much that's gonna blow up but....haaaaaaaaaa

And yeah, Deon. I don't have any specifics but Hiro will probably put a network ad out for the fix-it/junk shop thing (maybe an interest check for the latter, now that I think about it) so that would be one way. Other ways include asking around w/ Kedan for somebody besides the metalworkers who might be able to point you toward some proper supplies, et cetera, though it's up to discretion how much word will have spread tbh.
wrathfulkhan: (Evil studmuffin // chatvert)

[personal profile] wrathfulkhan 2015-05-03 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
At least consult the actual criminal before you do any black market dealings! /headdesk

I'll have to keep an eye out on the network, Deon would definitely jump on that, then.
bigdamnhiro: (belly)

[personal profile] bigdamnhiro 2015-05-04 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
In the interest of pacing myself, network post will probably be more like....next week? Or mid month-ish. Yeah. Also I will keep you informed of what stupid stuff he gets up to with Tony and Stork on the black market just in case it all goes to shit. Maybe there will need to be a Genetervention or something. anything could happen.

ngl, I kind of loved Hiro interacting with all three girls. Zatanna, because of bratty brattyness. Midii, because she's similarly not that great around people (especially those her own age), and Aya because ROBOTS.
bigdamnhiro: art @ <user name="ask-hamadahiro" site="tumblr.com"> (hey hey hey but look)

[personal profile] bigdamnhiro 2015-05-02 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
lmao yep I share the sentiment, it's been good all around. Hiro's just gonna have to get used to the whole magic thing. And it's funny w/ Midii because like...Hiro just by circumstances hasn't HAD a lot of interaction with kids his own age, because he was always in class with the older ones, so he has no clue what to do.

Also, I do wanna follow up on Aya and Hiro network/encryption stuff probably at some point, tbh. Nothing specific in mind yet but yeah.
unetrustworthy: (almost a smile)

[personal profile] unetrustworthy 2015-05-02 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
Zatanna can deal with "having to get used to". It's better than outright calling her a fraud.

Midii's extra funny when you realize that she's only gotten to interact with a handful of them herself. She's a war brat who only had one friend for the longest time (it didn't end well), and then there were a few kids in Keelai, and they've all left since.

I would love to do more follow-up stuff. It's basically an ongoing personal plot, and something that Aya's not going to let up because it's right up her alley. I don't have any specifics in mind quite yet, either, though I would love to eventually work my way to to getting encryptions back. Be it on the Network or Radio or wherever allowed with minimal kedan backlash.

Obvs it'll end up being a mod discretion thing, but yeah, getting encryption back or SOME form of more private communication would be cool. Even just pursuing it makes for a fun player plot.
