the USERNAME meme


Journal names. They're something we all think about, and that we often try to make as fittingly torturous to our characters as possible. Isn't it nice that our characters never have to know they're wandering around with that horrible label attached to them?

...wouldn't it be fun if they did?

RULES

1 Your character is communicating with others through a journal community, just like how we're using them, and they are perfectly aware of that fact. Whether they think that's normal or not is totally up to you.

2 The also know that when they signed on to this community, they were automatically assigned a name that supposedly has something to do with their personality and/or history. They didn't have any say in what that name was going to be, they're just stuck with it.

3 Make a post with your character's reaction to seeing what their own username is. Do they think it fits? Do they hate it with a passion? Are they downright confused?

4 Comment to other people's posts with your character's reactions to everyone else's usernames. If they know the other character, they might have good reason to laugh at them or feel sorry for them. If they don't, this could lead to some pretty interesting first impressions, don't you think?

5 If you want to use a name that's different from your actual journal name, just mark that in your post. No need to create a whole new journal just to make your character's life worse for one meme. ;)

6 PROFIT!

What does yours mean?

[Because, lets not talk about how he ate your friend.]

It's a joke about my wayfinder. [She shows it to him.] It could be worse, so I'm not complaining.
heartisabattleground: (A promise kept.)

[personal profile] heartisabattleground 2012-08-11 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Your...Wayfinder?

[Okay, that suspiciously looks like the one Kairi made for him. He'll pull out his own.]
findsways: (He said what?)

[personal profile] findsways 2012-08-11 09:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[Woah, okay. That was unexpected.]

I made three of these, one for me and two for my friends. There was a fruit with this shape in your world, right?
heartisabattleground: (awe)

[personal profile] heartisabattleground 2012-08-11 09:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, of course. The Paopou fruit. My friend Kairi made this one for herself, but she gave it to me so I'd promise to come back safely.
findsways: (Unbreakable connection)

[personal profile] findsways 2012-08-11 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I made them more or less for the same reason. I guess it's no surprise.

[Wait...]

Kairi?
heartisabattleground: (Look up there.)

[personal profile] heartisabattleground 2012-08-11 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Huh, I see...

Hm? You know her?
findsways: (When you put it like that...)

[personal profile] findsways 2012-08-11 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe she's the Kairi I met.

Can you tell me how she is?
heartisabattleground: (point)

[personal profile] heartisabattleground 2012-08-11 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
She's been fine. Still the same as ever.

[He'll leave out the details of her being kidnapped twice though.]
findsways: (My dear sleepyhead)

[personal profile] findsways 2012-08-11 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's so nice to have a conversation about happy things.]

That's good to hear.
heartisabattleground: (curious)

[personal profile] heartisabattleground 2012-08-11 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[How's the realm of darkness treating you by the way? Remember when he and Riku were right on that same beach...oh wait. /shot to hell]

So, how do you know her? Did you know her when she used to live at her old world?
findsways: (Not impressed. Nope)

[personal profile] findsways 2012-08-11 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[I KNOW RIGHT. You two were obviously too busy to hold that door open for a moment.]

Yes. She was being attacked, probably because of the light she had inside.

[personal profile] heartisabattleground 2012-08-11 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oops? Hey, contemplating your place in the universe and reading letters is very time consuming!]

She was?! Guess even than people were after her...

[He clenches his chest though.]


Well, you don't have to worry, me and Riku have been keeping her safe!
findsways: (We'll fight if we must)

[personal profile] findsways 2012-08-11 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
They weren't...are people after her?

[She doesn't like the sound of that.]
heartisabattleground: (Well you see...)

[personal profile] heartisabattleground 2012-08-11 10:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh well, yeah. She's a princess of Heart so Maleficent was collecting them. But it turned out, Ansem, er Xehanort's heartless was the one behind it. But, I saved her along with Donald and Goofy.
findsways: (Some things are best left unsaid)

[personal profile] findsways 2012-08-12 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh.


Well, you saved her. Which is good news. But you also mentioned someone who you really shouldn't know, Sora.]


Xehanort...?
heartisabattleground: (Well you see...)

[personal profile] heartisabattleground 2012-08-12 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, do you know him?
findsways: (We'll fight if we must)

[personal profile] findsways 2012-08-12 01:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[She doesn't answer, but her face says it all.]
heartisabattleground: (shock)

[personal profile] heartisabattleground 2012-08-12 04:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[Wait a moment...]

Are you....are you one of King Mickey's lost friends?
findsways: (Not impressed. Nope)

[personal profile] findsways 2012-08-12 05:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[That's a really...sad way of putting it, but hey. It is true. Aqua gives a small nod.]

I guess I am.

You know him, too?

[These are a lot of familiar names to handle.]
heartisabattleground: (What was that!?)

wonder how she'll take it when she finds out this is Sora.

[personal profile] heartisabattleground 2012-08-12 05:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I'm friends with him too.
