[ooc: Up for anything! Be it dumping Nebula on Earth back in time, fantasy, or hell maybe into the middle of the Star Wars universe? I'm so in.]
( tired assassin guy from a universe with super heroes that is old, jaded, and just wants to rest, but his writers won't let him so here we are. very open to him landing somewhere else. isekai me baybeeee. )
[ Character info/permissions., No 21 please. Her world is Earth, circa 2010 but like store brand Earth, EX: Quattroid is definitely not Tetris, except for the part where it's actually almost exactly like Tetris.]
Lorna Dane — AU: Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) — OPEN
[ OOC: MCU AU timeline details ]
[If your muse is all up in the supernatural biz they'll fit right in in Nockfell. But otherwise, he's gonna drop in traumatized as hell and very surprised to be alive wherever he might have ended up.]
[ooc: Hoping I'm not too late -- we've never written together, but Sally Face is a favorite of mine and my OC Cora here is from a small town with creatures of myth and folklore in the woods. Most notably sirens!]
[ totally content to have her be the traveler to someone else's verse/planet/world or for someone else to wind up in A Galaxy Far, Far Away (aka a huge galaxy with space sorcery, laser swords, galactic warfare, deep corruption, and shining idealism). she could easily run across shenanigans in a post-canon situation where she's kind of roaming the galaxy, but also down for this happening when she's still very much Kylo. also very game for situations where a friendship (or more) has been struck between the two, and then something comes along that forces her past into focus. in general always game for ideas and brainstorming. ]
[Sometimes you're just driving your whip down a dusty desert road, thinking about life, death, undeath, immortality, the reason for existence, the reason for your existence, and then
another blue bitch just falls from the sky into the passenger seat of said really fucking cool car. Chaos can't even say he's all that phased, because. Well. The world's kind of fucked up, isn't it! And this just makes shit interesting. He doesn't pull over or brake or anything because that's pussy shit, just jauntily drums his fingers on the car door and gives his new passenger a look over.]
We-e-eeeeell, look at who we have here! Hi there sweetheart, what's your name? You come round here often? Ha!
[Actually-- scrap driving. He can drive with his magic brain or whatever. Instead, he literally turns around so that he's bodily facing River, knelt on the seat, one hand braced on the headrest and the other on the dashboard.] You know, you look like one of my favourite actors. Just a little, it's all in the hair. And the glasses. Face shape a little too. Smile, so I can tell if you really have the resemblance down pat!

[Well! Isn't the world just a fucked up little thing? One moment he's certain he's practicing old Guardian spells he'd found around the Spire, and the next -
He's in a car. Under the sun. The brightass, white-light bearing, high-temperature shooting sun. Give him a second here, that's too much for him.
It's done with just a flick of the wrist, a black parasol opening up as if out of nowhere just so he can hold it above himself and keep all of that skin of his out of the sun's glare.
It was already causing his freckles to spread a bit in an attempt to take in and let out all that excess white light like little magical solar panels... but they're shrinking again, now that he's shaded.
As for the driver? River shows no concern about Happy Chaos's behavior, even when he's now faced away from the wheel entirely - if the car crashes, the car crashes.
Why should he care? He wouldn't be the one skinned by the asphalt.]
My, isn't that a bit forward? Calling me sweetheart before I've even told you my name!
If you must, call me River.
[Happy Chaos gets that smile, big and golden-yellow and full of sharp edges. But it's got a clear edge of defense to it. Mostly just due to not knowing what kind of person's hemming him in, here.
... Someone he's taking a second to look up and down, no less. Taking in his features, running that data through his mind to analyze it, before tucking it all away for where he might need it.]
You're not too surprised to have a sudden passenger. Does this happen often around here?
Forgive me if that's common knowledge, my dear - I haven't been with the world of the living in a very... very long time.
