Hello everyone in Turtle Land, I'm Shurimon and I will be bringing in Simon Tam from that beloved cult favorite TV series Firefly. He's the older brother of your favorite psychic assassin River, is coming from a canonpoint of after the movie but before the "Leaves on the Wind" sequel comics, and is an incredibly gifted and intelligent trauma surgeon. Simon can come off as cold at first and he grew up wealthy and privileged so he can be a bit of a prissypants too, but he's a loyal friend once his trust is earned, and he is 100% devoted to his profession and to his sister's wellbeing. His application is here if you'd like to know more, and I've got an HMD post for him as well. Simon is my oldest muse (I've been playing him for more than 6 years) and I'm always happy to try him out in new environments.

If you'd like to add me on Plurk I can be found at shurimon; I also accept PMs from people not on my friendslist. Plurk is the absolute best way to get ahold of me, since I work an odd schedule and have a long commute, but you can also PM Simon's journal or shoot off an e-mail to spdbridge03 at gmail dot com. Also, I try to tag once a day and boomerang when I can.

I'm so happy to be here with you all!

Who ordered castmates I didn't order any castmates--

I can't even pull off the joke, I'm too excited. :P

he'll try not to throw his soul gem away this time, River

[problematical]

Such a boob :P

[pompous_today]

You'll have to make sure to watch out for him.

Yay a Simon! Whee!

I play Pepper Potts from Iron Man: Armored Adventures, so Marvel's highschool AU of the Iron Man crew. She's friends with River and will be very pleased to meet the older brother :3

[pompous_today]

Thanks for the welcome! He'll be so happy River has had people looking out for her.

Hello! I play Valdis, an OC. She's a chaos magnet, but it totally isn't her fault. (Except, you know, when it is).

Welcome to the turtle, I look forward to CR with Simon.

[pompous_today]

Thanks so much! I can't wait to get going here.

Hi! I'm Pur, Modly 3, vaguely canonblind but knowing enough about Simon to be excited. :3

I play Solomon Wreath (peacefullywreathed), a blind necromancer who is attached to Raine Sage, and Anton Shudder (this journal), who is the proprietor of the Midnight Hotel and kind of sort of has a demon inside him. He also discovered a few months ago that he has an autoimmune disorder, currently unidentified because the presence of the demon mimics the symptoms and there haven't been any science-based medical personnel around for a while.

[pompous_today]

Ohhh, all of this sounds like fun. :3 Especially a demon- that'd make Simon wish Shepherd Book (the preacher) had come with him.

[gistful]

Alas, it is not the sort that can be cured by an exorcism (Anton's already tried and it kind of ... killed the monks who were involved). Having a second medical opinion on the condition would be awesome in all fashions, though. :3 They have brainscans, just no one with a scientific medical education to read them.

[pompous_today]

Sweet! Simon would be happy to help with that part- he doesn't like being idle.

[peacefullywreathed]

Awesome! Raine is Anton's healer, so ICly she will probably be the one to contact Simon about it.

[pompous_today]

I look forward to that, then. :3c

[pushtheboundaries]

sooooooooooooooo




thoughts on fourth walling? TOTALLY COOL IF NOT, FYI. I've played this guy as a fan of the series before, but can definitely have him step back here. (He wouldn't outright call Simon a fictional character, at least. Das Rude.)

[pompous_today]

I'm OK with it! Simon would be weirded out, but I'd find it amusing.

*ahem*

I mean uh... hello and welcome to the turtle! I'm GreenRivers and I play this giant (literally th guy is about 7ft) nerd, and the considerably tinier Yorda.

Definitely looking forward to poking Simon because ahhhhhh Firefly is such a blast

[pompous_today]

Awww shucks. Thanks for the welcome, and I hope I live up to expectations!
