meme: state of the characters

[throughaphase]

We haven't done this since April, and I figured with the BDE past, it might be good to check in with our characters. So, stolen from seaweed_demigod...

Everyone loves gabbing about their characters, don't even lie, so this is your chance. Talk as much or as little as you'd like! Talk about whatever you'd like! Upcoming plots, relationships (both romantic and friendship), enemies, plans for the future, anything!

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

And we have a handy dandy text box so you can just C&P it right in the box and fill in your answers. Get to it!


<b>Character name:</b> <b>Character's current mood:</b> <b>Character's current goings on:</b> <b>Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon):</b> <b>Needs threads with:</b>

And when you post a comment you can watch more Olympics. That's the deal.

Comments

[justwantsquiet.livejournal.com]

Character name: Sookie Stackhouse
Character's current mood: Not dead!
Character's current goings on: Well. She's not dead and/or frozen to her boyfriend, so life's a big improvement over this time last week, amirite? Otherwise, she and Bobby just decided to live together, in light of that whole dying-thing, so she's getting all her shizz together to transfer to ESU, whooo.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): That whole transferring thing. And someday -- SO HELP ME, SOMEDAY -- soon, I do want to do the Fae War, finally.
Needs threads with: Um, like everyone. Particularly people who were in detention. Or killing her, even if Sookie disagrees about that one.

[unburnt-queen.livejournal.com]

Character name: Daenerys Targaryen, titles titles
Character's current mood: Relatively cheerful.
Character's current goings on: Well, she's hanging in Rome with Lucrezia still, learning all about political intrigue (and how to be better at it) and sexing it up with NPCs.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): There's more plot to get through before the end of summer, and whoo preplay!
Needs threads with: Um, like everyone when she gets back. Girl is not entirely sure she is coming back. WHAT A SURPRISE IT WILL BE FOR HER.

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Character name: Rory Skywalker
Character's current mood: Relieved
Character's current goings on: She's basically just been in constant cling-mode since Sunday, but other than that she's gearing up to run around on the campaign trail probably starting in late September. Whoo, fictional perfect jobs!
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Work's going to take her around the country, so that'll be something. And it'll force Anakin into single-daddyhood for a little while and won't that be fun to watch.
Needs threads with: Um, like everyone. People who she met during the BDE who she doesn't normally know! People who she hung out with during the BDE who she does already know! People who haven't seen wee baby Christopher! People who enjoy tiny Juliet and her fun ability to talk at them! And um, like everyone.

[solo_sword]

I just realized Jaina hasn't met Christopher yet. That is not right.

[momslilassassin]

Character name: Ben Skywalker
Character's current mood: miraculously online Worried
Character's current goings on: Well, he was knocked out and stuck in captivity for most of the BDE, then turned into a cat. But he's not really caring about that because he's a Skywalker and those things kind of happen. He's gearing up for a return to Naboo to kick Ender out of his post-BDE funk but that won't happen mwahaha.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Two books of canon starting on Saturday!
Needs threads with: All of the people when he returns. I've been playing him four years. That seems insane.

[trickydemigod.livejournal.com]

Character name: Luke Castellan
Character's current mood: Okay...ish? He's not really good at being happy.
Character's current goings on: Probably watching the Olympics in a fiendish way that only a son of Hermes can achieve. But it's mostly handwaved because fuck if I'm watching the Olympics outside of soccer. Also he's a bit worried about his boyfriend because he's pretty sure he's not as okay with the BDE as he's pretending to be. Luke's mostly over the actual BDE (he'd take Umbridge over Kronos any day), but hated the way it reminded him of the stuff he did in the past.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): No actual plans unless you count PW visits and boyfriend birthdays. I need to get him out more 'cause it's his last year here and he's my favorite to play.
Needs threads with: Everyone, especially people he's never met before.

[liarallmyown.livejournal.com]

Character name: Jace Wayland
Character's current mood: Ashamed. Yes.
Character's current goings on: He currently feels really, really bad about the stuff he did to Alec during the BDE and he's going to do his best to make him believe that he doesn't remember the worst parts of the week.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Nothing, really. Even thinking about incorporating canon IG at this point makes me want to cry and hide. If you read the books you'd understand.
Needs threads with: Alec, Natalie, he should probably meet Sam at some point, anybody who doesn't mind putting up with an egotistical jackass

[district12baker.livejournal.com]

Character name: Peeta Mellark
Character's current mood: Happy to be alive!
Character's current goings on: Well he was surprised as hell to discover death doesn't really stick in Fandom and he doesn't really know how to process that. It's jarring after coming from a place where more permanent deaths happened so frequently. But he's not letting it ruin his mood any. It'll take more than that to get Peeta down. Though we'll get to that point eventually.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Nothing in the near future but The Hunger Games is happening in May/June. He takes more effort to play than my other two boys but I need to get him out more.
Needs threads with: Fawn, Clint, everyone else. Seriously, he needs to meet more people.

[so_hawkward]

FYI Clint's going to be at the gym tomorrow. *pets Peeta*

[bitten_notshy]

Character name: Jack Priest
Character's current mood: Confused. Very ... confused.
Character's current goings on: Well, he's not dead. So he has that going for him, which is nice. But he feels betrayed that Emma wasn't actively working to free the detainees in the AU, and that's going to take a while for him to get past.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): I'm floating with the current for him. I may send him back to alumniland in the spring and fast-forward time so I can get him through college and law school before bringing him back to the island as a responsible adult, but that depends on me being willing to let him go. There are also vague plans for Being Human plotty afoot. Finally, he will see Sebastien again -- it just has to be the right moment.
Needs threads with: EVERYONE but especially Emma, Ronan, Kaidan, Mitchell, Sookie, Dinah, Eric, Kate, Bo, and anybody who'd have an interesting reaction to his wolfiness.

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

Dinah: Hey. Did I miss a memo?

Ahahahha. *g* Honestly, I can't remember if she knew that or not, I'm guessing not, and I need to have her call him anyway. YAY ALIVE.

[throughaphase]

Character name: Kitty Pryde
Character's current mood: Okay
Character's current goings on: Well she got way more play out of the BDE than I expected... She didn't get any trauma, it's now totally out there what she can do and it made her miss doing the X-Man thing. But really, this place is the most okay she's felt in in a while, so she wants to stick around.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Nothing.
Needs threads with: Clint, Kenzi, all the Marvel people now that I'm feeling more comfortable, and I gotta say I am really amused she got threads with original characters who might wtf at her... and it was an AU. So I think that should get played with.

[halfman-lion.livejournal.com]

Character name: Tyrion Lannister
Character's current mood: Pleasantly surprised
Character's current goings on: Tyrion led troops into battle, did not die, and did not get laughed at. His ego is well-fed.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Nothing in particular! One more session of the "never forget what you are" class, though. That's a definite.
Needs threads with: Jaime, Clint, Ghanima, Kate Daniels, Ace, Loki for mutual technology glee, Kitty, Bo, Stannis, Daenerys, anyone over 21 in general.

[life_inshadow]

Character name: Tara Maclay
Character's current mood: YAY THE WORLD IS NORMAL AGAIN YAY.
Character's current goings on: She's sort of ... finishing up, I think? She's glad she got to help in the AU, even if she doesn't like how timid she was there. It's a matter weeks until college, so a certain amount of her mental energy is directed that way.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): I will finally be at S4 next month! Sadly the first episode I really want to put Tara in is Fear, Itself, which is Halloween, and then it's another six weeks before she meets Willow, but still. PROGRESS.
Needs threads with: Karla, Warren, Sookie, Raven, Jono, Surreal, Ender, Billy Kaplan, Ben ... allllll the magic people.

[notconflicted]

Character name: Marasiah Fel
Character's current mood: Not great...
Character's current goings on: She's not showing it from day to day but dying really did sort of freak her out. She'll thank me when she gets to canon. Otherwise, she's also turned into a pony and a cat since May so she doesn't like it here, but she's starting to feel more comfortable despite that.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Nothing planned, really.
Needs threads with: Atton, Raven, Juliet, Britta, pretty much everyone. I need to socialize her better.

[solo_sword]

Character name: Jaina Solo
Character's current mood: Eh. Glad I didn't give her BDE trauma on top of everything.
Character's current goings on: So someone killed her twin and isn't having the easiest time with it. She's not active with the Jedi at the moment so not having work to throw herself into is driving her nuts, but she's unofficially dating again and actually talking about things for once. She's just really quiet for her.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): We'll see about her short term plans. But I need to start figuring out what to do with where Blood Oath was supposed to be.
Needs threads with: The GFFA peeps, Eric, Rory, anyone and everyone.

[fates_jaye]

Character name: Jaye Tyler
Character's current mood: Less crazy than last week
Character's current goings on: She's still a little weirded out that the animals have been quiet since the BDE. Otherwise, eh, same old, same old. She'll think of Bobby as a walking morgue forever.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Nothing planned. See a theme?
Needs threads with: Everyone. Anakin, Rory, now she has to talk to Deadpoool...

[brat_inslayage]

Character name: Kennedy
Character's current mood: Kind of not that great OH HEY LOOK DISTRACTIONS.
Character's current goings on: Just her classes. Oh, and some lingering messed-up-ness from the AU. You know. Just a little.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): I've been sort of vaguely setting up for this for a while, but after the summer's over she and Willow are headed off to Brazil. I'm working on adapting a one-shot from the comics that I may have a couple of her friends come play in, and I'm waiting to see how the current comics story arc pans out to decide whether I want to adapt that one (SO MUCH ADAPTATION THOUGH OMG). Could be interesting, if it's workable.
Needs threads with: Whoever, yo. She's only on the island for a few more weeks before it's back to alumniland.

[batwaffles.livejournal.com]

Character name: Stephanie Brown
Character's current mood: Weirded out.
Character's current goings on: Not being on island at the moment, largely handwavey adventures in China with Tony. Rest assured, because this is comics canon, they're wacky in their unelaborated-upon way.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): . . . largely handwavey adventures. Working out some long-term plans but nothing coming up terribly soon.
Needs threads with: She definitely needs to run into Terry when she gets back to the island, I think. Whoever, though. Seriously.

[annieadderall.livejournal.com]

Is it wrong I want to throw Annie at Stephanie just because of that one fic?

[nonelikemesince.livejournal.com]

Character name: Anakin Solo
Character's current mood: Confused
Character's current goings on: Uh. Yeah, look, I fail, okay?
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): . . . see above. Sigh.
Needs threads with: Broken-record time, but whoever.

[furnaceface]

Character name: Jonothon Starsmore
Character's current mood: Bitterbitterbitter.
Character's current goings on: Still running back and forth between the island and New York to run missions with the New Warriors. He's been flung back into a bit of a funk after the BDE and probably needs a swift kick in the ass to get him to start functioning again.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): I swear, as soon as work stops being insane I'm going to push him through the rest of his New Warriors canon. Honest. And in the fall, The Boards are going to be putting on The Importance of Being Earnest The Consequence of Being Frank, for a foray into something that isn't a musical.
Needs threads with: Pretty much anybody who was down in detention with him, or anyone who doesn't mind threading with a large mopey blue man. The usual suspects. People who aren't the usual suspects. I love playing Jono off of new people. Possibly because he's a big grumpy teddy bear and actually thinks people buy the 'GRRR BIG SCARY MAN' act.

[twintuitionist.livejournal.com]

And in the fall, The Boards are going to be putting on The Importance of Being Earnest The Consequence of Being Frank, for a foray into something that isn't a musical.

My first thought -- before, of course, auditions and such -- is "Juliet was born to play Cecily." Because come on.

[wwiii]

Character name: Warren Worthington III
Character's current mood: GODDAMNIT FANDOM.
Character's current goings on: Warren has officially sworn off of Fandom Island in the summertime. So it's probably for the best that he's in Kaeleer with Karla right now, preparing for college.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Off to Sunnydale with Tara in the fall, and all the madcap adventures that such a trip will entail, of course!
Needs threads with: Pretty much anybody. He's not going to be going back to the island for a while, since he needs to get his head around the whole blue emo Archangel thing, but there are a lot of old friends that he needs to get back in touch with after the fallout from the BDE.

[twintuitionist.livejournal.com]

Character name: Juliet Darling
Character's current mood: Muddling through
Character's current goings on: Well, she's finally convinced the AU wasn't a dream. That's one thing. And she's still considering going for red hair here in the real world.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Only the best 18th birthday party ever come October
Needs threads with: Jeremy, Frank, Sia, Stacey, Pinkie ... basically anyone who does not mind a well-meaning bubble-brain.

[endsthegame]

Character name: Andrew Wiggin
Character's current mood: Unbalanced.
Character's current goings on: After last week, he's pretty much 100% sure that he wants to GET THE HELL OFF THIS ISLAND. Seriously. He's been here for four years, he's had enough, he doesn't want to be anywhere that's going to keep dragging him into deadly bouts of violence. So... yeah. While I'm never letting him go, he is so beyond ready to move on to the next thing, and that thing isn't Fandom Island.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): He's planning to go to Naboo and chill out next week, but instead he's getting roped into more violent funtiems in Ben's universe, which seems intent on dragging him and Ben back for one last hurrah. (Seriously. So ready to go.)
Needs threads with: Everyone he still can, while he's on island: Valentine, Tara, Cassidy, Tony, Topher, Sparkle, all his students, really, more members of the Skywalker-Solo clan and. Well. Seriously, whoever's on island who wants to talk to him.

[nothornlessrose.livejournal.com]

Character name: Cassidy
Character's current mood: Depressed
Character's current goings on: Cassidy is having a damn hard time dealing with what happened to her in the BDE. She's never had so many of her fears and self-confidence issues used against her and she's dealing with the doubt it all instilled in her.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): I have no idea. There are a few things I would like to do, though.
Needs threads with: Ender, Karla, Loki, Shira, Surreal, Mercy, Jono, Sookie, Raven, people from detention... all the people!

[ultron_junior]

Character name: Victor Mancha
Character's current mood: ... weathered.
Character's current goings on: So his big brother reprogrammed him in the AU -- which would be less of a deal if it didn't play into Victor's fears that he's pretty much a walking target for any hacker good enough. He's trying to figure out what he can do to prevent that; he does have a kill switch in canon, and I need to figure out how to put it into play in Fandom. He also has tons and tons of guilt about the things he did while eeeeevil -- though not, particularly, about his fight with Jaime, because he figures at least that one was a fair fight.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): See above about the whole kill switch business. Also, there are canon plastic surgery zombies (ugh, keeping them offscreen) before we get into a much better storyline that ultimately ends in Victor meeting his "grandfather"; I'd like to do that well before parent's weekend.
Needs threads with: Alec, Karolina, Bobby, Tony, Topher, Peter Wiggin, Fawn, Kaidan, Samus, Clint, and the entire Marvelverse onslaught, plus anybody else.

[myownface]

Character name: Sparkle
Character's current mood: FUCK YEAH.
Character's current goings on: Okay, so last week was kind of rough, but dude, he survived it, AND he got to light shit on fire in the name of saving the day AND he got to break into the school and screw up some offices and things. Plus there were other people on his side who had his back, so all-in-all, he's lived through worse and he's doing pretty okay.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Naaaah. Sparkle's life is wide-open.
Needs threads with: Maeby, Frank, Atton, Ender, Sholeh, Toby, Ulrik, Karolina, Victor. I'd like to bounce him off of Kenzi sometime to see how they get along, and anyone who wants to play with a pathological liar klepto who Doesn't Care (except for how he totally does.)

[regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com]

Ahahahah. SEPARATED AT BIRTH. So yes. Must happen!

[walks-two-paths.livejournal.com]

Character name: Savannah Levine
Character's current mood: Depressed and confused
Character's current goings on: So, Savannah not only was a double agent and did things to keep up her cover, she was in a relationship with her BFF and kissed her when the spell was broken. She has no regrets about kissing Angela because she knows she has had feelings for her for awhile, but she's scared that her actions are going to negatively impact their friendship.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): She needs to do more with the store and she and Angela need to have a housewarming party since last week kind of ruined that happening at the time. :D Plus now that her canon is temporarily closed (and I finally got my book to READ IT), there are so many things I could do with her that have been done in canon. Supernatural Fight Club. This does not include the cracktastic idea that was spawned during my trip last weekend. Maybe.
Needs threads with: Angela, Sean, Isabel, Wyatt, Eve, Piper, other adults!
