CR With Me | July 2015

[ironwood]

hey! it's time for a cr with me meme! Welcome to the bi-monthly edition of the CR Meme! It's been a busy six months since the Foreigners have returned to Keeliai, and even in that span of time, plenty of things have changed! Here's a good place 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 round, we have a special section called SIX MONTH SPECIAL, to reflect on all the changes that Keeliai, and the characters' lives, have undergone. 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">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>SIX MONTH SPECIAL (OPTIONAL):</b> What's the biggest change in your character since awakening from the Dreaming? Or if your character has come to Keeliai in the months since then, what's the biggest adjustment they've had to make from home? For both, where does your character see his or herself six more months from now? <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.

CHARACTER: Wanijima Akito
CANON: Air Gear

CURRENT STATUS: Feeling very guilty and stupid because of how he handled his mugging (which was pretty good but OOPS POLITICS), then the situation with Meisheng, Anton, and Malcil. That's a guilt-inducer too. He actually feels no guilt over getting his lorell'an blade SORRY GUYS but he does feel stupid that he didn't pick up on the fact that it would be a set-up (though how the heck was he supposed to know that the seller wouldn't get in shit for doing something illegal? SO DUMB oh well).

Hm... He's still homesick as always, but it's actually a lot less severe than it has been the past few months. Father's Day was a bad one until he dragged Callaghan around. Since then he's mostly been focused on trying to be a kid, albeit an independent one with a business. Speaking of which, now that his contract with Stark Industries is over he'll be working a little bit harder to make up the difference in income.

Also instead of training with his own Air Trecks, he's switched over to Gazelle's. Still as quick as ever, but people who notice would see him working on a very different fighting style.


CR GOALS: MORE FAMILY-TYPE RELATIONSHIPS. Callaghan is such a trash dad but he's a way better father figure than his actual father was so pff. Meisheng is the closest he's got to a mother figure and Alayne is a big sis ♥ Definitely always looking for more familial relationships since they really ground Akito and help him be a bit more careful with the consequences of his actions.

Also very interested in more student/teacher relationships. At the moment he's got Callaghan lessons on the regular, and with China every so often. Kedanese lessons with Ayin semi-regularly (if that's still a thing).

SIX MONTH SPECIAL (OPTIONAL): The biggest change since Awakening is his self-confidence. He feels much more sure of himself, though when he's uncertain he feels it a lot more strongly now. He isn't afraid to defend himself or his feelings - especially when it comes to Kaito. He's the first to admit he was a shitty father and that he was treated horribly, but that doesn't make him love Kaito any less.

He's also infinitely more confident (and proud! - which is a huge step for him) of his fighting skills and ability to physically protect the people he cares for. He's more open about his feelings with the people he trusts, and because of the relationships he's developed he's become much more keenly focused on the consequences of his actions. Even if he still kind of sucks at that part.

He's also learned that he loves learning. And that he's actually smart. Really smart, according to Callaghan. It makes him proud and think he might like to go to Callaghan's world if given the chance since it sounds like great fun.

With what he's learned he started the handset upgrades with the help of the other science nerds, and they should be done by the end of the month. /o/

SCENE-DOS: EVERYTHING
SCENE-DON'TS: I have trouble with negative CR with Akito, since he's less irrational about it than Agito is ahaha... It makes it fun! Though since this month my grandmother is dying I would prefer to keep things a bit more upbeat.
