Okay, this is nookiepowered's fault, but have some of my favorite NPC/guest spot journal names plus character Twitter handles because why the hell not.
istunbadpeople is one of my favorite guest journal names, from when I had Davis Quinton from Corner Gas at CopCon. Davis Quinton doesn't let details like being half of the entire Dog River Police Department, because Dog River is a town with one four-way stop and nothing for the DRPD to do except nap in their cars all day or play table hockey on duty, stop him from blowing the entire month's budget on a taser. When fellow/subordinate officer Karen Pelly calls him on what he'd even do with it?
The only person he ever ends up stunning, incidentally, is himself.
andletthemgaze is from when I played Mercutio for withoutverona in the Field of Dreams plot, from Mercutio's line "Men's eyes were made to look, and let them gaze." It was pretty perfect for how flamboyant and non-selfconscious he is.
thefirstycircus is the catch-all NPC journal I'm (sporadically) using for Kennedy's (currently on winter hiatus oh-god-my-brain pause, sorry) canon catchup stuff, and is a reference to a Buffy line about "the whole Firsty circus" rolling into town.
Twitter handles:
@tahiriveila - Please, like Tahiri is savvy enough about social media to come up with a clever handle. My whole backstory there is that she only got a Twitter account to follow Hope Solo and had a running search for "Solo" going, which is how she found Jaina on there and realized people from Fandom were on the Twittermachines.
@PinkChronoCop - That's Jen's. It's not terribly imaginative but then again neither is Jen, who would be all "It's accurate and practical, what more do you want?"
@browniepoints- Steph, on the other hand, is practically legally obligated as a Robin to make a pun on her own name. There's also the implication that she spends a lot of time trying to earn Batman's approval.
I haven't come up with one for Anders yet; Gabrielle doesn't use Twitter (in my head this is because the 140-characters thing frustrated her too much) and neither does Katchoo (who doesn't want to be trackable on social media in case people from her Lesbian Mafia days come looking).
Kennedy's Twitter handle is totally @SpecialK but I won't have a chance to use that one for a while, aww.
no subject
Davis: "Stun people."
Karen: "What kind of people?"
Davis: "Bad people."
