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: Jack Frost
CANON: Rise of the Guardians

CURRENT STATUS: Still tending the Welcome Center! The power boost from Zatanna's ritual has given him an edge to literally beat the heat, so although he doesn't enjoy the warm weather that much, it's less actually damaging to him and he's gonna appreciate that freedom.

CR GOALS: Mostly, I want him to meet a lot of new people. He's been here almost the longest out of the Foreigners, and while most people technically "meet" him when they come through the Welcome Center as of their arrival, I want him to actually start making new friends with everyone. I'd like for his knowledge of how the city worked before to be somehow helpful (lbr, JACK wants to be somehow helpful) but in a way that isn't too pushy, since mod-character. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

CHARACTER: Yami no Bakura
CANON: Yuugiou

CURRENT STATUS: Running the Jade Dojo, generally being prickly to most people. He has managed to smooth things out with Solomon and Raine, and sort-of Valdis, and picked up a few new favourables like Erskine and Pepper. He's also intrigued that Kaiba's arrived, even though the two haven't really done anything besides snark at one another. I've also kicked off a looooooong running plot regarding his ghosties, so that's going to be making appearances soon.

CR GOALS: For the most part, I'm going to focus on building his existing CR and having him get to know them better, and they to know he won't that be a trainwreck. That said, I'm not objecting to him meeting new people this month, it's just not going to be my focus. He's had lots of negative CR, so I want to build up some of his positive CR side. (Again, not opposed to negative CR, just not actively pursuing it.) Really, I need people who will be aggressively friendly at him (THANK YOU PEPPER YOU'RE DOING GREAT!!), who will show up unannounced and bother him to do things. It's easy to play him as recluse to a degree, so relationships that counteract that are great.

SCENE-DOS: I'm open to pretty much anything.
SCENE-DON'TS: Because school is restarting for me in a week, and I (think???) I have a job with Elections, Sept and the first half of Oct are going to be very busy for me. So I'm probably going to limit the amount of conversations that just go into idle chitchats, so I don't get overwhelmed.

Jack let Cain meet and talk to you, he's fascinated by you being an actual spirit elemental thing. All the spirits in his world are either dead people police or people who get stuck and end up warping horribly and shit. HE'S CURIOUS.

Also I'd like to continue in the vein of Cain prodding and poking at Bakura to see what's up with him. :3c He's interested and wants to get closer!

[denyamenti]

Both sound good!

[purered]

Tiny spirit fraaaand (let Klaus ask you all the questions plpls)

Also Klaus needs to actually stop by the dojo some time

[denyamenti]

OMG yes, Klaus and Jack were super cute and I would like more things with them!

Klaus at the dojo though, like I know he can fight, but he's such a teddy.

[purered]

Oh my god the puns had me on the floor laughing (pls Jack teach him jokes, he has a sense of humour I SWEAR he just doesn't get to use it nearly enough)

If anything he'd make a gr8 punching bag, so if Bakura's in the market for someone who can put up a hella defense, there u go.

[denyamenti]

COME AT ME BRO I can pun at people all day long, just ask on plurk.

Hahaha, Bakura usually just summons up a monster if he wants practice. THAT SAID, if Klaus ever feels the need to let loose and is worried about accidentally hurting anyone, Bakura's got him covered.

[purered]

TUSHAN'S WON'T KNOW WHAT HIT 'EM SINCE JACK PACKS A HELLUVA PUNCH

*slithers back to hell where she belongs*


ACTUALLY that would be really awesome. Punching boulders to stay in shape gets kinda tedious ya know

[denyamenti]

BOOOOOO bad :P

/nods He knows there are a few Foreigners who just need something more sturdy, so. He doesn't make it widely known that he'll do it, but if Klaus gets to talking to him, he might find out.

[purered]

(shh, shh, just let the puns wash over you in a tide of awful)

It would probably come up after the letter from future self event.or he could just inquiry about how the people with super-human abilities stay in shape idk SOMETHING WILL HAPPEN

[denyamenti]

awesome! I am going to be putting up a catch all and there's always a general dojo starter, so that's gonna be soon :D

[purered]

Excellent! I'll def tag into there

[edgeoftheknife]

ALL THE BAKURA THINGS. Y so prickly new friend :|

[denyamenti]

loooool just you wait until you learn more about him, Erskine. Prickly is only the surface :X

[edgeoftheknife]

DAMN I need the plotty frog emote for this reply. Plurk has spoiled me.

BUT YES Bakura should spill the beans about why he's a grumpypuss. And then they can be angsty friends together and do stupid little non-angsty things because it'd be adorable. :)

[denyamenti]

Yessssss I like this plan!! Highfive for non angsty habits of angsty people!

[ruinsprofessor]

so about that accidental adoption

Raine's going to straighten her head out regarding Bakura I swear and then

...I am not 100% sure what then, but some kind of talking to him is what she's going to want to do, so. Throw my hat in the ring for that.

[denyamenti]

I desperately need to read that ngl.

[ruinsprofessor]

we're getting there, I swear. It'll happen. I'm looking forward to it, too. c:

the peanut gallery is apparently going to be huge

[denyamenti]

when is it not

then I'll just be over here wiggling excitedly~

[ruinsprofessor]

Excellent. <3 I'll know where to find you.

[lasergrenades]

Pepper will happily remain aggressively cheerful. Also I keep imaging the two of them playing duel monsters and I need to figure out cards so this can actually become a thing some day. I haven't been wanting to draw this for two weeks what are your talking about.

[wintershepherd]

:D I usually handwave the majority of his cards, so don't feel like you have to have a set deck before you can use it ICly.
