CR With Me | Sept 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. 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><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: Erskine Ravel
CANON: Skulduggery Pleasant

CURRENT STATUS: "The Insane Foreigner." IE - Erskine set fire to a building in Central Sector last month thanks to bad brainspace, and is still dealing with the fallout. He's also trying to help the kedan by making it rain via magic. He's been talking about his problems with Raine and trying to get help for nightmares from Dove, so he's slowly working on mending.

Theoretically I'm taking it easier on rigid plotting this month, but I do have a few plans. I'd like for Erskine to start sliding into charity/social work for the kedan, and maybe have a confrontation with some angry kedan at some point. Other than that, I'm rolling with the whole invasion thing and I might have some ideas on that, depending on how it goes.... B)

CR GOALS: New CR would be great! I'm definitely not going to ignore current CR (I have SO MANY THINGS I WANT TO DO WITH YOU GUYS YOU HAVE NO IDEA) but Erskine has been very withdrawn for his entire stay in Keeliai, short of his few network posts. He's not going to be posting to the network anytime soon--too afraid of backlash--but I'd love for him to branch out to some new CR. Positive, negative, I can roll with both :3

SCENE-DOS: I can roll with actionspam or prose equally well, I like to think! I've gotten used to prose but actionspam still flows a little faster. I'm also up for just about anything emotion-wise, although I must confess to a slight preference for friendly/happy/fluffy this month to get Erskine out of his funk. But I won't shy away from negative CR or drama/angst!


SCENE-DON'TS: No. Get out. I want everything.

Erskine, please come talk to the immortal who has also suffered bad brain spaces and understands the pain but can also dad you lots. You seem like you need dadding.

[edgeoftheknife]

Yes please! He will resist the dadding at first but he could really use it. Don't let him fool you, Cain. :|

[insertdadjoke]

Oh please. Cain will continue to dad until Erskine succumbs. ALSO HAHA just for the record if Erskine is back at the Hotel and Cain ever saw him around he'd just be all /nod like "yup hi, you sure did cause a fire, glad to see you're doing better bye"

NOT A FUCK WAS GIVEN.

[edgeoftheknife]

ldkjdgdslkj that reaction will weird Erskine out so much, he's still going to be in "slink-around-and-try-to-hide-from-everyone" mode so finding someone who gives no fucks would be amazing XD

[insertdadjoke]

Absolutely. Cain is just sir not caring about this BS once it's been settled. IT'S OKAY, BRO, WE ALL HAVE BAD DAYS.

So if you want to assume that's already happened once or twice, we can totally do that. :D

[edgeoftheknife]

ERRGHH so torn between wanting to handwave it so we can get to more important stuff and totally wanting to see it go down for the first time XD;

[insertdadjoke]

Answer is to do both, clearly. I doubt it would be an incredibly long thread the first time so we could honestly, in all likelihood, do that and then whatever comes next around the same time.

[edgeoftheknife]

I like this plan. I'm glad to be a part of it. :|b

[insertdadjoke]

:D I knew we could figure something out!

BUT YEAH. If you wanted to, idk, tag August for the first part and then later in September something could actually come of it, that would work?? Maybe?

[purered]

Klaus would definitely check in with Ersk from time to time to make sure he's doing okay and if you need someone to scare off angry kedaan he's pretty good at that just by standing around

[edgeoftheknife]

Yessss I want more of these two! The Hotel is the obvious link but let me know if you have any specific ideas :3 omg that would be kind of amazing ngl

[purered]

I'll probably have more concrete stuff once the chihuleans pop up best bodyguard or best bodyguard?

[edgeoftheknife]

Same! I have tentative plans for the chilidudes /steeples fingers lmao the muse is like I DON'T NEED A BODYGUARD DAMMIT and I'm like SHUT UP YES YOU DO

[purered]

Excellent +w+ We can coordinate chili shenanigans over plurk and it will be gr&

Ersk doesn't need a bodyguard he needs a babysitter

[edgeoftheknife]

...point

[redlightgreenlight]

Maybe some more bonding and fluff?

[edgeoftheknife]

Yes plz :3

I have nothing specific in mind right now but we will come up with something!

[redlightgreenlight]

I'm sure we will <3
