WRECK-IT RALPH AU

HOW IT WORKS
- Your video game characters are now meta versions of themselves. How this effects their personality is up to you, but they're essentially now from an arcade version of their game and interact in this post 'off screen' once the arcade's closed and their game isn't playing.
- Your non video game characters can come from an arcade game you just make up. (Example: Supernatural could be a shoot-em-up demon killing game.)
- Feel free to go game jump and have fun! Remember, you don't get 1ups in games that aren't yours, so stay safe!

PROMPTS
1. QUITTIN' TIME
You're done for the evening! Stop beating up the villain of your game and go off and have a drink at Tapper's or do whatever you do for fun around here.
2. GAME CENTRAL STATION
The hub world of this universe! You can meet up with anyone from about any game here. Passing by your friend from the new fighting game? The girl on the dancing rhythm game?
3. NOT AS PLANNED
Someone's not acting as scripted during working hours! OH NO. Go whip them into shape before they get your game unplugged! Speaking of…
4. OUT OF ORDER
Your character is homeless because they got unplugged. Oh no. ):
5. GAME JUMP DATE.
The arcade is closed over the weekend! You can visit any game with someone safely for a day or two. Let me take you on a magic kart ride?
6. UP TO YOU!

Anghel Higure | Hatoful Boyfriend

[madlyloved]

[ An assist character for when you play as Edel Blau, into a fantasized dark medieval fantasy world action game with ominous towers and background fire animations, and you're fighting other evil birds with your weapon and magic! A lot of Anghel's canon personality (LOUD YELLING, never calling others by their names, and crashing through windows) is made as mostly part of the act, he seems a lot drowsier during the afterhours. Must be all the yelling out enemy info. Overall he's probably less energy draining to be around... ]

Wilson Percival Higgsbury / Don't Starve / OTA

[the_gentleman_scientist]

Huepow | Klonoa

[sodade]

[ Probably works as Klonoa's weapon spirit in an arcade fighting game?? Or alternatively a hypothetical Klonoa arcade game where the focus is scoring high and fast to finish the climb up Balue's Tower. ]

Sonya Blade | Mortal Kombat game series

[soldier_blade]

She's from a video game after all.

Clementine | Telltale's Walking Dead | OTA

[still_not_bitten]

[Sweet if very world weary young kid of elevenish years, very good at making difficult and seemingly timed strong story based decisions and dealing with walk- I mean Zombies. Mostly friendly and polite with those she trusts, mind.]

[doorkey]

[Coraline's crawled her way out of a self-titled point-and-click adventure/puzzle game, and is presently hiding under one of the benches in the game hub, her wide eyes set warily on the Yarny Protagonist of the upcoming Unravel game. He's chilling with group of Little Big Planet sackdolls, and they all look far too suspiciously like the Other Mother's creations for comfort.

...But soon enough a potential playmate appears, and while Clem is getting her bearings, she might hear a nearby whisper and a wave]

Hey!

Down here!

[still_not_bitten]

[Clem's clearly a little out of her comfort zone for her first time in the Hub, what with coming from a relatively realistic setting (albeit it one where your parents and guardian got bitten by rampaging zombies) so seeing plumbers with mushrooms and fighters with lightning bolts and big hats and creepy five year olds accompanied by giant men in diving suits with rotating screws for hands is a little trying. Even so, she's still putting on a brave face, maybe even enjoying herself. At least no one is outright violent around here, so it's quite refreshing.

She jumps slightly at the voice before realising the source and bending down to looks at the older girl under the bench.]

Oh, ah, hi. What...why are you down there? There's nothing bad here, at least I think so.

Bigby Wolf/Big Bad Wolf | Fables (WAU Era) | OTA

[wolfamongus]

[Gruff but probably not as bad as people think he is Sheriff of Fabletown, but likely having a few beers and smoking some Hufflepuff in Tapper's at the bar when he's not in game on a case.]

Wario ! Nintendo

[gonnawin]

[Always running some scam of some sort, Wario is the man with a million get rich quick schemes. Somehow despite his foul personality and greedy attitude (perhaps due to his skills in hypnosis) he always manages to rope people with common sense into his plans to get his hands on cash.]

Ienzo - Kingdom Hearts (Prompt 2/4-ish)

[illicitresearch]

[ The wait for Kingdom Hearts three has seemed like half an eternity, and Ienzo's been restless about the state of Radiant Garden... maybe it'll get a fresh coat of paint and new layout, by the time he has a world to return to again?

But for now he's left milling around game central, perusing his Lexicon and ever-so patiently waiting for release date news (Big Hero 6 is the sum of all rumors he's heard lately). He's been meeting regularly with his support group, for coping with stress from the re-acquisition of his heart, and being somewhere in limbo as a reformed antagonist.

He's really tempted to nip off to Skyrim's DLC and bum around Apocrypha, if a certain lovecraftian Daedra will sneak him in, but Lexaeus had to drag him out by the ear last time he took that vacation.]

[idontmeantobraig]

[Xigbar's just as restless. They all are. He's taken to lurking around the zombie shooters, using the hordes of undead for target practice. Having a teleport ability written into his code is incredibly useful for avoiding a permanent game over. As is his three health bars, but who was relying on those anymore? Games were getting kind of lame lately. Get hurt, hide behind some junk for a while? Please. Xigbar still went hunting through Castle Wolfenstein for med packs with B.J. Blazkowicz.

Sure, it was kinda tempting fate. But his code was programmed to be overwritten with Xehanort's since the concept phase. Might as well have a good time, while he still could.

He's laying back on a bench with his feet up for the time being, but quickly spots Ienzo from across the way. Well, why not give Team Hero a little grief now and then? He waves Ienzo over, sitting up and gesturing to the spot next to him.]

Hey, kid. Long time no see. What have you been up to lately? Still going to those sappy reform meetings?

[illicitresearch]

Oh, Xigbar. What a surprise. [ Not necessarily a pleasant surprise, but unexpected all the same. He straightened his ascot tie and drew near, settled beside him cautiously.] I suspected you'd be busy at this hour. [ Though the shooters did fill up fast. ] Aeleus is off lifting with Donkey Kong, keeping his strength up.

I'm.... still just waiting, mostly?

[ Ienzo admits tiredly, with even less to say for his participation in those 'sappy reform meetings'. ] It's been quieter than I'd hoped.

Naoto Shirogane - Persona 4 Arena/Ultimax

[shiroganeheir]

[Life's kinda boring for a less popular character in a fighting game. Sure, she gets called up to be the antagonist more than a few times, but rarely is she in the spotlight herself. Solves all the mysteries of the hub in her spare time.]

Vergil | Devil May Cry

[devils_never_cry]

Joachim Armster | Castlevania: Lament of Innocence

[young_nobleman]

[Dwindling interest in their games mean that the Castlevania machines are all but unplugged, so he spends most of his time just hanging around Game Central Station.]

Yar // Yar's Revenge

[gotrevenge]

[Four-armed bug-fairy lady with a bad attitude, already the main character in a 3D rail SHMUP. She takes off the armor whenever she gets off work and goes to drown herself at Tappers for a while.]

Cassie Cage | Mortal Kombat X

[cassiefuckingcage]

[Sure like to see how that'd turn out for her game.]

Re: Cassie Cage | Mortal Kombat X

[soldier_blade]

The lights turned off just at the part of the game where she was strangling Kano in her chapter. Hearing the bell, she got off the man and walked off, only turning back to make sure he got seen by the doctor. Rumor had it Kano was going to bad-anon meetings..almost sad in a way.

For herself, Sonya clocked out and made her way out, waiting to see if anyone would join her for a drink. Constant fighting all day, she needed to wind down.

Twenty-some odd years, this shit was getting old.

Wii Fit Trainer | Wii Fit U/Smash Bros

[firmup]

[The Wii Fit Arcade edition features a platform with a balance board and the proper leg room to perform all the yoga and exercises the player chooses. It's one of the few games in the arcade where loss (of calories) is rewarded with tickets and everyone that plays is a winner so long as they put in the effort.

During after hours, the trainer (known as Will to his friends) can be seen giving yoga sessions to fellow gaming characters or simply relaxing at Tapper's. His personality is virtually (no pun intended) no different from what what the arcade goers see him as: calm, optimistic, encouraging, and the need to bring out the best out of everyone through positive thinking.]
