YOUR CHARACTER
NAME: Utsugi Lenka (
CANON: God Eater (Anime)
SHORT DESCRIPTION: Stoic™ shounen protag raised in the middle of post-apocalyptic nowhere year 2071, culture shocked by pretty much everything except oddly advanced technology. Fights giant doom monsters with a ridiculous JRPG gunblade bioweapon. Amazing at being sneaky. May have a green thumb. Good-natured in spite of the pokerface. Crouching strategist hidden #yolo. Best friends with a class clown otaku type.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Here. The BIODATA section is probably the most helpful, as the rest is game-specific information.
WHAT YOU WANT: I'm very fond of AUs for him, so I'd be up for messing around with pretty much any kind of AU, though canon-based stuff like Harry Potter or Fate or things like that are my favorite. He bounces best off more outgoing characters, whether they're friendly or not -- positive and negative CR both welcome at all times, tbh. I also really like fighty threads so if you're up for hitting monsters or zombie apocalypses or whatever, or outright character scuffling that's great too! Silliness like road trips or suddenly kidnapped by aliens or agedowns etc. to kickstart CR also welcome. (Also, obligatory call for canonmates of all GE mediums, if they exist.) Shippingwise: he's unfortunately the kind of blockhead that takes some buildup (or some convenient AU), but I'm open to it! M/F, M/M, etc. all good.

YOUR CHARACTER
NAME: Viv Vision
CANON: Marvel Comics ; Champions
SHORT DESCRIPTION:
a brief summary...
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: I'm still catching up with canon, but I have a fair idea of where she's at currently. I'll be caught up relatively soon.
WHAT YOU WANT: Basically, ALL THE CHAMPIONS. Honest, I just want to build on the canon CR with these goofballs. I'm not into shipping her right now, mostly because her sexuality is still being explored canonly. But I'm all for platonicness. I'm also open to other Marvel characters, but I may not be completely familiar with all of them. Obviously, some father-daughter time with Vision would be A+++.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: tagging speed is unfortunately a little inconsistent as I have a fluctuating work schedule, so casual and patient writers are something I am hopeful for 🙏 I can backtag indefinitely, or idea-hop at will, I'm more dedicated to having the inspiration than I am to tethering to a plot if things are going stale.
YOUR CHARACTER
NAME: Ambrose Sinclair
CANON: original character
SHORT DESCRIPTION: total fish out of water. a vampire who got caught up in some really unfortunate drama on his sire's part, which lands him being buried alive and trapped for nearly 200 years. he is discovered in modern day and is just tryna make it on his own (especially since his sire is a useless prick.) he's a musical theatre performer in both his native era and in current day, and I tend to play him either immediately resurfaced, or an ambiguous amount of time later as one of the main cast at a theatre in New York. he's an existential and romantic sap with a lot of feelings about his undead status, mortality, and art, to name a few.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: info of all kinds can be found here.
WHAT YOU WANT: meeting other supernatural/atypical beings! other vampires (even if there is a difference in mechanics between what I have established; I like the idea that other lineages do function differently enough), werewolves, superhumans, whatever... Dungeons & Dragons OCs, canon characters, or original characters otherwise would be fine as well. angel or demonic characters would be especially intriguing! cross-media is fine.
human characters are also an interest! love the idea of Am getting close enough to a mortal human as a friend or more, and them realizing the whole pitfall for mortal/immortal pairing.
adventures in pop/modern culture, emotional/tense/overwrought plots, debates on morality of being a vampire OR corruption of thought/convincing Am otherwise on his stance on feeding/killing, slow burn ship (m/m for him), consensual feeding (can overlap with being emotional/intense), I probably have more ideas that have slipped my mind, but a significant part of my interest lies in the other party I'm writing with, so! I'm eager to hear ideas that are occurring outside of my cranium.
LINK TO A POST: open post here, but I am always glancing bakerstreet too, so happily pm me if you see a meme you like or if you post a top level somewhere that you're particularly eager to write for.

and one could guess that while similar, could end up not being quite similar enough, and that causing issues for Ambrose later...now that the cogs in my head are turning, I can absolutely see Ambrose having to come to Lupin especially for how to guard himself from certain creatures, as well as just general wizarding knowledge, as well...
and then there's the options of Ambrose knowing Remus is a werewolf, or having to discover that, depending on what you enjoy!
were there any current memes that caught your eye, or sound compatible enough? I did also post Ambrose recently to the picture prompt meme, which is very general enough (since I posted links to some very specific scenario types, haha.)
no subject
given what canon points would make sense, it's probably already publicly known that Remus is a werewolf, so he wouldn't bother trying to hide it anymore. which means he can more easily commiserate about things! wizards are pretty notoriously Awful about non-human beings.
also, you mentioned slow burn shipping in your toplevel and i would def be down for that ijs
i'm gonna hunt down some pictures for picture prompt, probably a first-meeting getting-to-know-you kinda thing, but if there's a specific scene you're wanting to do, i'm always down for threading in an open post.

we can place it nebulously in the time after voldemort 2 electric boogaloo (or, yknow, goblet of fire) and before sirius dies via drapery, i think. at least for first meeting. it'll make for some built-in plot points too!
no subject
this all sounds pretty good, and the ambiguousness plays well for us. make stuff up as we go along is probably my favorite mode of rp-transportation, so!

CANON: The Orville
SHORT DESCRIPTION: The USS Orville is an exploratory vessel commanded by captain Ed Mercer and his ex-wife (and XO) Kelly Grayson. She's a tough woman with a good head on her shoulders and a dry wit that compliments her captain's own humour well. She's straight and to the point, but never at the expense of the compassion and kindness that lies very evidently on the surface.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: The Orville is an episodic sci-fi dramedy with a setting that takes place in the 2400s.

YOUR CHARACTER
NAME: Era Ra
CANON: Final Fantasy XIV: Stormblood
SHORT DESCRIPTION: The (singular) Warrior of Light of her world. Exceptionally skilled at all forms of combat. A skilled healer, though after the events of The Vault she picked up tanking.
Standard quiet (not silent) hero-type. Unerringly loyal, not comfortable in large social gathering, tendency to work and work and work pretty much non-stop. Work being training, exploring/clearing dungeons, occasionally adventuring, helping every person ever with everything ever, etc.
Has no memory of a life before 2.0. Also is demisexual, but relationships have never crossed her mind for various reasons (to busy being the WoL. oblivious to non-platonic feelings, etc.) Very small (4'8") Auri lady who is proud to be an Au Ra.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Here is a detailed infosheet.
WHAT YOU WANT: Canonmates would be amazing! And other Final Fantasy franchise characters. It's very easy to crossover XIV into all other FF games! And other universes in general, to be honest.
I have a large preference for gen, h/c, found family, and just general CR building. No smut unless there's been a slow-build or other outside factors force it (which I am fine with). I'm craptastic at writing action.

YOUR CHARACTER
NAME: John Grimm
CANON: Doom (film, not the games)
SHORT DESCRIPTION: He's basically a super soldier of the Space Marine variety; he was injected with a serum derived from Martian DNA that gave him superhuman abilities. Personality-wise, he's no-nonsense on the job and a capable leader, has a dry and sarcastic sense of humor, and at his core a good heart despite the things he's done and seen (which is proven by the fact he didn't turn into a monster like his commanding officer and others in his squad). Basically... he's kind of a dirtier, snarkier Captain America, lol.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: character wiki page.
WHAT YOU WANT: Thanks to a relationship with a wonderful Miss Romanoff, I've developed a headcanon that basically meshes his verse with the MCU, with the branch of the military that he works for more or less handling the set-up of interplanetary bases, scientific installments, and the like in the Milky Way via ARC Gates (the method of interplanetary travel in his canon). Although most of the missions his squad get sent on are security or containment of alien threats. So I'd kind of love to bounce him off other MCU characters and just in general have some fun cross canon stuff.
Just in general I'd love to get some stuff going with him with other characters. Interactions with his twin sister are always A+. Since his canon is fairly contained (in terms of what's actually talked about in the film) it's not difficult to slip him into other canons, even if just in a more generic soldier/special agent capacity.

I just threw him over in the picture prompt meme and usually post him in the weekly TFLN, but I'm happy to toss him wherever for a scene/convo.

NAME: Brynn or B
CONTACT: personal journal (
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: I try to tag threads every 1-2 days (short form threads get tagged more frequently) and I'll backtag literally forever if I'm into the thread. I'm in PDT, but I tag randomly throughout the day.
YOUR CHARACTERS
NAME: There are a lot of them, and I'd be willing to entertain things for any of them. The priorities are Jemma, Wanda, Nakia, Karen, and Karolina.
CANON: Marvel Cinematic Universe (I have journals, many of them rarely used, for a truly disproportionate number of Agents of SHIELD women, some from the movies, some from the Netflix, etc. etc.)
SHORT DESCRIPTION: Well.
Jemma is a genius biochemist and field agent. She's been through a lot of awful things, but even though she suffers from anxiety (among other things) she's still dead-set and determined to keep fighting the good fight because she has the ability to do, or at least to try to help to do.
Wanda is a sort-of-ex-Avenger, wielding a variety of mentally-driven powers (fancy versions of telekinesis and quasi-telepathy among them). She too has been through hell and come out fighting; she's simultaneously too young and too old for her age; she wants to help but she's deathly afraid she can't.
Nakia is a spy and quite honestly the world's preeminent Social Justice Warrior. She's from Wakanda, which is the most advanced nation in the world, and literally all she wants to do is help everyone else overcome their shit situations.
Karen is a secretary-turned-journalist, a superhero's Known Associate, and a gal who is absolutely just done with your shit. (I haven't seen Punisher, by the way.) And she too wants to help. This is a theme.
Karolina is a high school kid who recently realized she was half-alien, capable of glowing like a cool space rainbow and blasting light out of her hands and flying and stuff. She also realized her parents are evil. And that she's gay.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:There are slightly more detailed breakdowns on everyone's journals (combinations of headcanon and canon-canon, of course). Oh, and yes, I'm up-to-date with (and up for remedying) Infinity War.
WHAT YOU WANT:
Is it still a crossover if you technically exist in the same universe? One of the best things to do with Marvel muses is play them against other Marvel muses that aren't in their subfranchise but you could think of ways to logically make them know each other. Agents of SHIELD people knowing, well, other formerly SHIELD-adjacent people; Runaways kids being mentored by bigger heroes or BFF with, like, Spider-Man folks; Netflix heroes and cinema heroes teaming up; relationships that are in the comics but not the MCU; science alliances; making up excuses to make characters interact because you just want them to, dammit.
And on that note, girls. Yes, 'tis I, the femslash one. With the exception of some antagonist/protagonist pairings (I like my ships Safe, Sane, and Consensual, which villainy sometimes negates) and the usual nopes (underage characters with older characters, incest, abusive shit) I'm pretty much open to exploring any femslash pairing. Conveniently, noisy Jemma and Wanda are so noisy in part because I can ship them pretty universally (though I have favorites, of course) and conveniently, I have Queer Agendas for all of my characters. I will never push this on anyone, but ugh, good femslash is still all too rare and if you're into it I'm into it. Cross-canon is also welcome, though more negotiation is probably needed. (Sidenote: there are male characters I like shipping with, in some cases, and friendship with all genders is welcome, but those always feel easier to come by.)
Hey, you know the alternate universe meme? Where all the different tropey AU scenarios are laid out and you're supposed to create elaborately worldbuilt scenarios with your characters, presumably operating on some canon-analogous details? This is my favorite damn thing. I like hashing out the details of AUs and really diving into them, I like making weird things work. I like making whatever canon(s) into whatever other canon(s), whatever genre(s) into whatever other genre(s). Favorites include film noir, Deadwood-style Western, magical girl, classic high school/university stuff, Bombshells-style atom punk/revisionist history, and fantasy (high or urban or something in between), though honestly I'll hear most pitches.

But I'm also down for journal/musebox stuff you have any scenarios in mind for, or links to memes you want to play—anything at all, really! Feel free to use whichever character you like too, I am also 100% about seeing how dynamics work out.

YOUR CHARACTER
NAME: Evan Sabahnur | Genesis
CANON: X-Men comics
SHORT DESCRIPTION: A good boy from America's heartland who happens to be the clone of one of the worst supervillains his corner of the world has seen. Evan's essentially an experiment to see whether nature or nurture wins out; his Eurotrash uncle raised him in a virtual world (unbeknownst to Evan for quite a while) pretty much identical to Superman's Smallville with the hope that nurture would win. And while the people around him might feel it has--a friend describes him as "the smiley guy in the corner"--Evan still isn't sure. Beyond that, he loves music, sneakers, being a hero, and Kansas.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Infopost here.
WHAT YOU WANT:
Ⓧ Ships! They'll be pretty wholesome and kind of slow-burn, fair warning--getting to smut takes buildup with him. Evan works well with other teens who are kind-hearted and okay with cute relationships. I'm fine with both canon and cross-canon ships for him, but I'd prefer either m/f or Evan/Bobby.
Ⓧ Characters he has canon interactions with! Bring me your Deadpools, your Ellies, your Wolverines, your Psylockes, your Kitty Prydes, your time-displaced O5, your Melita Garners. IDC who, I just love playing with what canon gives us, because I perpetually want more.
Ⓧ Pretty much everything else. Friends, rivals, enemies, canon and cross-canon--I'm down with exploring everything. Evan's great for a variety of types of threads: action, horror, goofing off, h/c both physical and emotional, fluffy stuff, silly stuff, serious stuff. Whatever, man, I am Here For It.
SPECIAL NOTE: Maybe you play Deadpool, but only from the movies, or you play Cable or Vanessa or WHOEVER. I still want to do shit with you! I've seen Deadpool 2, and it only stirred up my Evan muse further (I may or may not have spent the last day yelling about the parallels to comic things Ev and Deadpool were in). I am super down with playing with the differences in their worlds and the potential confusion that would come with that CR. Hit me up, please. ♥
