state o' the characters!

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

Is there a better day to talk about your characters than on the Ides of March? I don't think so. It's been about a month and a half since we did this so it's time to check! We all love to talk about our characters so here's your chance! Talk them up, talk about their development, things that are going on, reactions to the latest strangeness, things that you're hoping for in the future, holiday plans, next semester plans, plots that are upcoming, difficulties they're having, anything and everything!

For example:

Character name: Dolores Umbridge
Character's current mood: PISSED OFF
Character's current goings on: Sometimes, it's hard for me to play her because she's so intensive and tiring. But, she's having fun hexing students and pissing off teachers. I'm enjoying her games of give and take with Anakin and Wade, particularly. I'd love to see her thread more with Roy. She'll be leaving soon but not before a big explosive ending.
Needs threads with: Everyone because she wants to kiiiiiiiiill you all

I've even changed it up a little, set up a small text box that you can feel free to C&P with some extra added information about the character in question. You absolutely don't have to use it though!

[sensethevisions]

Character name: Phoebe Halliwell
Character's current mood: A little shaken
Character's current goings on: She's now recently been hired on by the newspaper to do "Ask Phoebe" an advice column, as is trying to deal with the not happy events of this most recent AU weekend.
Needs threads with: Cole, Anders, Piper, Raven, Veronica, Eve, Sean, Tori, her nephews, Lana...

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

Character name: Gwynn Hood
Character's current mood: Very much full of thinky thoughts -- which is not normal for her
Character's current goings on: Graduation is getting closer and she's pretty torn about what she wants to do after graduation. She still wants to be Phillip's first knight and all of that... but she also isn't sure she really wants to leave this time period. Not to mention that she's got some very confused romantic feelings going on that she is repressing because she does not understand them at all.
Needs threads with: Eve, Sean, Tim, Conner, Tori, Adam, ... anyone, actually

[svetocha-blooms.livejournal.com]

Character name: Dru Anderson
Character's current mood: Not happy in the least
Character's current goings on: Her father was just murdered and then turned into a zombie by an evil vampire. The same vampire who killed her mother. Who now wants to kill Dru. Because (and this is all information she just found out) she is a svetocha aka female djamphir. In her particular universe svetocha are extremely, extremely rare. They're more powerful then male djamphirs or at least they are once they mature (bloom). The trick is, surviving till then.
Needs threads with: Pretty much everyone.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

Character name: Isabel Evans
Character's current mood: Ridiculously content
Character's current goings on: School, boyfriend, work, lather, rinse, repeat. Now that Peter's been found Isabel pretty damn happy. She's working, spending time with Wyatt, going to school, her family and friends are all well. Life is pretty good. Something needs to happen to shake it all up soon.
Needs threads with: The usual suspects

[blessed_twice]

Something needs to happen to shake it all up soon.

I'm working on it, bb. ;)

[spiritandsword]

Character name: Annja Creed
Character's current mood: She's pretty content, actually.
Character's current goings on: Let's see, on New Year's Eve, she ended up married to her boyfriend, which doesn't stress her out in the least bit. No matter what her body looks like, she is legal so nothing there to mess with. She's going to be starting to go through some canon shenanigans -- both with the help of Sean and possibly Hoshi. She's doing some research on an artifact right now and has decided that while she would like her real body back, it's been two years and she's not stressing about that any longer.
Needs threads with: Pretty much any one and every one, including Sean, Hoshi, Adam, Chloe (bwahahaha) and just about anyone else.
Wants to: I want to come up with something that reveals who and what she is (spiritual descendant of Joan of Arc) and the sword sometime before she leaves the island. I am taking volunteers and and ideas for this!

[see-beyond.livejournal.com]

Character name: Jonas
Character's current mood: Restlessly content
Character's current goings on: There's not much here and that's my fault. My other boys took precedence last month and now I'm determined to get Jonas back into things. He's still got his thing with Beka that I really like playing (and Jonas, shockingly, enjoys the kissing) and he's got a few good friends. I might make him discover pornography somehow and flail like a girl. I'm not touching his canon for the moment just so he can continue to settle in. I am going to make him deal with some of the nastier aspects of canon because he's repressing a lot. And he needs to find Karla and learn to cook because that will go so well.
Needs threads with: Beka (obviously), Blysee and Blind Seer, Karla, Kate, Didi. Jonas has a lot of female friends. I should fix that so ANY GUYS TOO!

[future_sandworm]

I'd be interested in a conversation between Jonas and Leto.

[trigons_child]

Character name: Raven
Character's current mood: Anxious, but mostly okay
Character's current goings on: Andy is officially her boooooooooooooyfriend. :D She's sneaking home to Azarath with Dinah tonight to get some information, which will result in a little bit of emo. Threat of her daddy targeting Earth is imminent. Her vampiric would-be husband is lurking out there somewhere, too, so unfairly blamed for nomming on her recently. Needs to get over her Max issues. Wondering if powerful demons like Lucifer have an innate knowledge of other demons, or if there's a Who's Who book she needs to get a hold of. ;)
Needs threads with: Anyone, really

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

I need to get Hannibal either in during her day at the sex shop (because she blushes easily and he likes being the cause of that) or he has to get her back in the ballpit. *nods*

[not-jaded-yet.livejournal.com]

Character name: Jennifer Walters
Character's current mood: Shaky, but Recovering
Character's current goings on: Recently mentally and emotionally tortured by evil versions of two good friends, Jennifer is currently doubting her ability to make tough choices and be the hero (and this doubt has manifested itself in her inability to change into She-Hulk form, not that she's tried to change, yet).
Needs threads with: Alice, Ellie, Zack, Ino, Pretty Much Everyone

[onlysmokesnics.livejournal.com]

Character name: Hayley Fitzpatrick
Character's current mood: Unstable
Character's current goings on: Hayley is currently trying to rebel against her 'future', in that she thinks she's destined to become Harley Quinn and doesn't want that sort of future, now. Given that she hurt two of her best friends, though, she's not sure who to turn to. She graduates soon, but will be clinging to Fandom with all her might.
Needs threads with: Karla, Didi, Elle, Raven, Anyone at All

[trigons_child]

Awww, give Raven your angst, bb.

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

Character name: Hannibal King
Character's current mood: Coasting
Character's current goings on: Not much at all but that's normal. He's graduating soon and he's doing pretty well not thinking about that even if it keeps coming up in conversations. He just has no idea what he's going to do when he leaves and how all his significant attachments are going to work out. I think he might stick around for one summer session and then I will kick him into the real world where he will eventually become a vampire, get fixed and become a Nightstalker.

He still needs to fulfill his end of the bet with Kate by dancing (I haven't forgotten) and I'm sure Angela and he will eventually get over their reluctance to talk about graduation. But, it'll be like pulling teeth the way things are looking. Things can never be easy.
Needs threads with: Angela, Kate, Chuck Bass, Ino, Hurley off the top of my head. He'll probably want to talk to EVERYONE since he knows he's got a time limit now.

[intraspective]

He still owes Ino a few hugs omg. She failed at tackling him for them!

[likes_scoundrels]

Character name: Leia Organa
Character's current mood: Any angst from the AU is compartmentalized, thank you very much.
Character's current goings on: Finding out that she has Jedi potential and in another world ended up going to the Dark Side has shaken her up quite a bit and made her realize she needs to start taking some things more Seriously (which didn't exactly stop her from smooching with Mat the other day, so). Wants to know her mother's name and is seriously going to beat it out of someone if she has to. I need to have her call home to ask her adoptive father, "What's my mother's name? By the way, my father is here as a teacher." That will go over well, I'm sure.
Needs threads with: Family, anyone

[carpe_demon]

Character name: Drake Dèmon
Character's current mood: Good (he's Drake, what else is his mood?)
Character's current goings on: He wasn't happy with what he was turned into for AU weekend but he's moved on. Needs to get to work on his bucket list because the clock is ticking.
Needs threads with: Paige, wee Charmed ones, Bel if I feel like playing with myself, Parker

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

Must play with Parker! She's on Spring Break now, dude.

[demonbelthazor]

Character name: Belthazor
Character's current mood: Emo.
Character's current goings on: He didn't like the vampverse version of himself that he turned into for the AU weekend and is all emo about what Could Have Been. Feels guilty about being mean to Anders and sleeping with Piper's boyfriend in front of her. Oddly, does not feel as guilty about sleeping with Veronica.
Needs threads with: Anders. Phoebe. Anybody at the Hyperion. I should make him visit Fandom because he hasn't gotten out in awhile. He could run into Raven and snark at her because I am a dork.

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

Oddly, does not feel as guilty about sleeping with Veronica.

They've come a long way, baby.

[blessed_twice]

Character name: Wyatt Halliwell
Character's current mood: Very content
Character's current goings on: Going to college by day, vanquishing demons (and gargoyles) by night. Like Angel-the-movie, only with demons instead of hookers. Things are going too well. Need to adapt the crap from S8 to shake things up. Boom.
Needs threads with: Anyone, I'm not picky

[weetuskenraider]

Character name: Tahiri Veila
Character's current mood: Hectic, a little confused, but mostly okay. Also taller.
Character's current goings on: Tahiri's still back home right now, going through the last part of a truly epic canon catchup that will wrap up her New Jedi Order story arc. (If I can finish tweaking the last few parts. Most of her role in The Unifying Force is mind-numbingly boring and a drag to summarize, but I refuse to jump straight into the end context-free.) After that she's canon catchup free and clear until sometime after graduation, this war will be over, and she'll have one huge thing off her mind. She's just found out the truth about what happened to her when she was tortured and shaped two years ago, and it's kind of throwing her some, especially knowing that her memories as Riina Kwaad weren't created: they were stolen from Nen Yim, the shaper who assisted Mezhan Kwaad in that experiment. Which means, I think, that she has some kind of bizarre form of Stockholm Syndrome going on here. Gee, thanks, SW, for not ever letting this poor kid have any semblance of normality like ever. I changed things up a little thanks to her Fandom experience, so Nen Yim's murder didn't trigger the really dangerous state of rage for her that it did in canon; that's going to be a huge key point in avoiding her canon fate thirteen years down the road. She's just apprenticed herself to Corran Horn, which is making her kind of squee like a little fangirl because she hero-worships him so much.

Once she's back in Fandom in a couple of days, she'll have worked out most of the kinks in her personality integration, and just generally be a much better-adjusted and more confident individual.
Needs threads with: Ben's a given; the rest of her GFFA extended not-quite-family, and Zayne, definitely. Firekeeper, always. Karla, Ender, little bro Alex, I'd love to have her meet Jak, and pretty much anyone, really.

[fratboybitch.livejournal.com]

Little bro Alex is always happy to talk to Tahiri! With the sort of uneasy truce, they might actually find some common ground considering the crap things in their past.

And he has to say thank you in his own Alex way for the stuffed animal. 'Cuz he's keeping it.

[solo_sword]

Character name: Jaina Solo
Character's current mood: Bored and twitchy
Character's current goings on: There aren't a lot. While she really really needed the break, it's kind of driving her crazy not having anything going on, especially knowing bits and pieces of what John's doing somewhere she can't help. Plus she found out her post-graduation plans couldn't work out like she'd thought, so she's actually kind of dreading 47 days from now and is reassessing a little. The BDE comes at an awesome time, no really.
Needs threads with: I want to play her with everyone possible for as long as I have her.

[pastmewrong.livejournal.com]

Character name: Effy Stonem
Character's current mood: On edge.
Character's current goings on: She's always going to be a difficult one to socialise, but now that she's moving/moved into that place where she's accepting that yes, she does actually want people around, as opposed to her outright refusal to let anyone get close... It should be getting easier. Still going to outwardly deny that she's let herself get attached to Alex, even if she knows otherwise.

AU weekend made her a little twitchy, as anything that screws with her control and her kind of precarious mental state is likely to do, but she's firmly repressing that. It's better for everyone that way. I have plans to bring in certain pieces of canon, because anything like the BDE coming up is the sort of thing that'll mess with her head badly, and like I'm not going to grab a hold of that. Still going to be nicer than her canon. Not like that's HARD or anything.
Needs threads with: Really, the only person she talks with with any regularity is Alex. Girl needs to broaden her horizons a little, so anyone!

[youcantfollow.livejournal.com]

I have got to get out of my failboat and send Griff to be awkward with her, as he ships them soooo.

[walks-two-paths.livejournal.com]

Character name: Savannah Levine
Character's current mood: Content and a little stressed.
Character's current goings on: Savannah has gotten into the art school of her choice -- as well as one that she never applied to. She needs to let the people she loves know about this -- as well as what she plans to do. She also needs to start dealing with certain things that she has been repressing over the last year and a half. (Repression -- it's a family trait, yes.)

I'm working out a plot draft that would force some of this -- as well as deal with canon stuff that not even canon has had her deal with as of yet. Fun times!
Needs threads with: Karla, K-Mart, Eve, Chris, Summer, Isabel, Wyatt, Sean, Tahiri, Sam, Johnny, pretty much any one she can, really.

[wantstocheer.livejournal.com]

Character name: Claire Bennet
Character's current mood: Content and hopeful
Character's current goings on: Claire is currently thrilled that Peter and Nathan are alive and hopeful that perhaps *her* Peter and Nathan are also alive. She's been taking the first steps into finding them, which will lead into some unpleasant canon business.
Needs threads with: Peter, Nathan, Elle, pretty much everyone since I've been sick and haven't done anything for a week.

[joan-notjane.livejournal.com]

Character name: Joan Girardi
Character's current mood: Nervous
Character's current goings on: Joan still has no real clue what she's doing after graduation which is making her antsy as hell. She's also worried about leaving Liir and Raven behind. Also, she's pretty unsettled over what AU!Gabs told her.
Needs threads with: Liir, Raven, Hoshi, Jen, Ellie, Kate, Hannibal, Loki, Marco, pretty much everyone.

[flashesforinfo.livejournal.com]

Character name: Angela Montenegro
Character's current mood: Relatively content.
Character's current goings on: Angela's generally fairly quiet here. She's taking AU weekend happenings largely in her stride, since nothing really -bad- went down for her. It was just unnerving and a little odd.

I can't bring in much in the way of canon (and speaking of, Bones needs to start airing again, damn it!) and I rely on letting her go with the flow. Which lately has been just classes, and cheerleading, and trying not to think too hard about the future and where everything's going. She's made various art school applications (in a totally handwavey sort of way), but even so is still considering taking a year out and going with her impulsive desire to travel, and not let herself get tied down to another place immediately.
Needs threads with: Hannibal (always), Savannah, Hurley, Peyton come to mind, but EVERYONE. No seriously, with graduation looming she really needs to make the most of all this.

[fratboybitch.livejournal.com]

Character name: Alex Karev
Character's current mood: Craptacularly bad
Character's current goings on: I made the choice to have him skip AU weekend since it fell around his birthday and it meant I could get him home to deal with some of that stuff there. Of course, it didn't quite work out that way but that was planned because he needed to realize that it is not always everyone else's fault. It is his fault. Now, he will refuse to outwardly deal with that while letting it eat him inside. Alas.

I haven't decided quite how I'm going to play the BDE because the hallucinogenic fog is going to make him think nervous breakdown (which his mother had) and is going to freak him out. The closer he gets to being similar to his family, the more self destructive he'll get so don't ask him to hit you, Effy ;).

He's pretty attached to Effy even if their arguments don't always make it seem that way. Never gonna be a cuddly pair. And he's REALLY happy that he can be still be friends with girls he slept with and isn't anymore because he's weird in the head. Having girls as friends is beneficial.

OH. Canon is also going to fucking Joss me big time next month. I don't know how (other than one specific thing) but FFFFFFFFUUUUUUU Shonda Rhimes.
Needs threads with: Rose, Emma, Effy, Tahiri, Jack Priest, Griff, anyone who can deal with his attitude. I really need to throw him at Katchoo. He just needs an excuse to find his way into the art store.

[thismaskiwear.livejournal.com]

Oh, I can always keep an eye out for a post of his sometime when she's not at work or in class, too. Like, how have they never run into each other on the roof to smoke? Fail, me.

[angelandwitch.livejournal.com]

Character name: Paige Matthews
Character's current mood: Frustrated
Character's current goings on: Paige still hasn't figured out who her charge is (though that should change soon). She's enjoying Fandom, but it's frustrating her that she still has no idea *why* she's here.
Needs threads with: Drake, Jack, Jim, any adult really

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

Character name: Dinah Lance
Character's current mood: Pretty good
Character's current goings on: She just got the Canary Cry power a week and a half ago, and is still very nervous about it; just got back from helping Dru and Kennedy in Dru's world. It was fun to have her help out someone else after a bunch of people helped rescue her. She's adjusting to the idea of being a crimefighter who isn't an exact copy of her mom, or the other Black Canaries she knows of now, and looking forward to graduation. Having a great time dating Jaime, for however long that will last with her leaving this summer.

Needs threads with: Anyone she hasn't lately! Silly stuff would be great.

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

Character name: Veronica Mars
Character's current mood: Not good
Character's current goings on: Veronica is blaming herself heavily for what went down at the Hyperion during AU weekend. She never told her friends everything about the vampverse and she thinks maybe if she had, some of the bad things could have been avoided. She's ridiculously glad that Dick doesn't want to divorce her for being a cheating ho but she's terrified that everyone else won't be so forgiving.
Needs threads with: Piper, Bel, Lindsey, Logan, Phoebe, Angel, maybe Anakin and/or Deadpool
