Meme: State of the Characters

I've been frustratingly busy all week, but today I'm not, so I come bearing a meme that we haven't done since August!

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 platonic), 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!

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

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Character name: Sparkle
Character's current mood: Mellow
Character's current goings on: Not a hell of a lot, really. He's getting to know some of the new students, which is always a plus. Settling in to a semester of work at the radio station. Still boggling at the fact that people keep hiring him and trusting him with important stuff, because what's up with that, seriously? Plus he's on talking grounds with Alec again, which is always good. Right?
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Nada! Sparks is just running on cruise control these days.
Needs threads with: Hell, everyone? Alec and Kenzi and Cecil and Flick and Celia and Gert and Cade and Atton and Kathy and... No, really. Like, everyone.

Character name: Cosette Fauchelevent
Character's current mood: Pretty fantastic, actually!
Character's current goings on: Not much in particular. Just easing into the 21st century, really.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): I have no concrete plans for this girl yet, other than eventually figuring out who Éponine is, dealing with their past, all that. That is not so much imminent, though, since I'm still working it all out.
Needs threads with: Related to the above? Everyone who's not me. -_-

Character name: Kitty Pryde
Character's current mood: Pretty good!
Character's current goings on: Not a ton. She's kinda figured out some things on the superheroing front and has (mostly) stopped kicking herself for killing Stiles that one time, so while she can worry about her friends or what's going on in Clint's NY, she's mostly just hanging out and waiting for the next trauma.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Nothing planned! Is there gonna be trauma in this BDE? Let there be trauma in this BDE.
Needs threads with: Clint, Stiles, Derek, Mike, Allie, Bruce, Jack, Nikaoli, Riley, everyone okay just everyone.

Oh, Kitty. You'll be kicking yourself for that again soon, I assure you.

Character name: Stiles Stilinski
Character's current mood: Cautiously happy.
Character's current goings on: Well on the happy front, he's not fighting with Derek anymore and they even decided to start dating after graduation. Sure, it makes things awkward now but hopefully it'll work out. And he's got a internship at the trooper station!

On the not so happy side, there's nemeton nightmares happening. And it's gonna get worse.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): BDE stuff if it involves trauma and luckily it ends the week the season of TW ends because right after I'll be jumping into 3B. Unlike last season I'm waiting to see how everything turns out because with my luck it'll turn out Stiles has been possessed all season (which I can work with) or he was put in a coma at the end of 3A and this is all just a dream (which I can NOT work with omg the canon butchering I'll be doing if that happens). That should cover me until June-maybe-July (depending on how long his stay at the [spoilers] is gonna be. And then it's hanging out in Fandom with his BF and then off to college.

And then I cry because I will miss him.
Needs threads with: Derek, Kitty, Clint, Scott, Mike, Jackson, anybody else.

Character name: Evan Sabahnur
Character's current mood: Antsy
Character's current goings on: He kind of went and told Sholeh that he loved her. He wasn't supposed to do that. It sort of makes things complicated, since her sisters can kind of be put to death if she loves him back, and all. Oh, and he turns seventeen tomorrow, at least in his head, even if he's technically, like, three-only-not. Being raised in a tube in The World complicates things a little. He'll be thinking of tomorrow as his birthday anyhow.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Nothing aside from whatever hijinx the BDE brings. Most likely trauma wherever I can get away with it. I love noodling with trauma. I'm still holding out on canon catchups until certain story arcs finish (Some of them involving Remender's writing. Again. Always involving Remender's writing. Sigh.) But, you know, once I get around to them, they'll probably be good and traumatic, too.
Needs threads with: Um, like, anyone who wants a thread with wee puny Poccy. Joker, Victor, Sholeh (naturally), Gert, Yeul, Surreal, Eleanor... I'll just list people off forever.

Someday I will be around for a decent period of time that coincides with you being around and there will be roomie time.

Character name: Isaac Lahey
Character's current mood: Eh, he's alright.
Character's current goings on: Nothing, really. Maybe some BDE stuff with seeing other people's past and possibly with seeing his own if anybody wants to deal with some real trauma.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): 3B at the same time Stiles goes through it. Since he's a secondary character there shouldn't be too much trauma. I mean, it still includes getting attacked by those Void things and crying but what I'm saying is it's unlikely he's going to go nuts. And I gotta figure out a way to make this Allison/Isaac stuff fit in and not be horribly awkward like it is on the show. Can't they just be friends? Let's have them be friends. Because srsly Crystal and Daniel used to date and I can't take that kind of awkward on my TV screen.
Needs threads with: Isabelle, Raleigh, Derek, Scott, Jackson, Jack, Elsa, Flick, Kitty, anybody and everybody.

Character name: Isabelle Sophia Lightwood
Character's current mood: Fine!
Character's current goings on: Lots and lots of training. Flirting, dates. Both of those latter things mostly with Isaac and Flick because they've managed to catch her interest for now. Really, she's one of those characters who just go with the flow.
Coming up: Catching up on canon over the summer. YES WE ARE GOING TO BE CATCHING UP TMI. PREPARE YOURSELVES. It's going to be terrible. For everyone.
Needs threads with: Isaac, Flick, Chuck (because TENSION and literal headbutting), Alec, Sparkle, Raleigh, Sia (talk to more girls, Izzy), Celia (more girls yes), MOAR GIRLS, MOAR BOYS, literally everyone because she's my new on-island favourite and love her interactions with different people.

Edited 2014-01-24 18:06 (UTC)

Character name: Gertrude Sarah Yorkes
Character's current mood: Frustrated
Character's current goings on: Gert just heard from a friend back home that the whole gang is thinking of getting together again soon, but she's got a restriction against universe-hopping back to her L.A. on her Portalocity account since Cap wants her to stay in school and all. She's none too pleased about that and she's determined to work around it somehow.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Well, she's going to eventually get home by way of help from a friend and she'll get to see her L.A. friends again. After that, she's got most of Volume 2 to get through, and some special guests might be involved in how all that goes down.
Needs threads with: Bay, Victor, Evan, Karolina, Mike, Sparkle, Will, Cade, Jim, Jessica, Josh, Liara, anyone who wants to meet her this semester before shit hits the fan for her.

Character name: Marasiah Fel
Character's current mood: Okay
Character's current goings on: Nothing, because I got Kitty brain and haven't done much with her. Oops. So she's fine here!
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Whatever's up with the BDE, and I should send her home for a visit again soon.
Needs threads with: Atton, Jessica, Isabelle, Mavis, Stiles, anyone who will help this girl get out.

Character name: Jackson Whittemore
Character's current mood: Eh.
Character's current goings on: Not much. Trying to get better at being a werewolf. Trying to come to terms with maybe having a pack. Basically just trying very hard. Which is the usual Jackson status quo.
Coming up: Nada. Unless you want to count throwaway references to 3B something I've plannes?
Needs threads with: Cordelia, Stiles, Derek, Isaac, Scott, Korra, Jack, Jim, why do I list all these people when the real answer is "everybody"?

Character name: Jono Starsmore
Character's current mood: Coping. Strangely enough.
Character's current goings on: So, he's missing his face. He has another fake lifetime crammed into his head and he's pretty much just walked out on the Boards because nope. But he's setting in well enough at the Groovy Tunes, and he's already pretty fond of the new flock of students, and he feels more whole now than he's felt in a long while, gaping chest-hole notwithstanding.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Nothing in particular! I'm waiting on another bit of canon for this boy before I figure out how to tackle his canon return to the X-Men (And I'm bloody terrified), but for now, mostly he's just chilling on the island and bopping around other people's plots as need be.
Needs threads with: Everyone. Seriously. I love this boy and he is my boy and I will throw him at your face if you'll let me.

Character name: Maddie Berry
Character's current mood: Okay, I guess?
Character's current goings on: She's adjusted to being a normal kid okay pretty well, but she maybe enjoyed having powers again (that wouldn't kill her!) more than she'd like. Otherwise she's glad to have a job that means she can do things to help people and that'll help her after graduation.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): No plans. Canon, throw Maddie somewhere. I beg of you.
Needs threads with: Loki, Jessica, Victor, Raven, everyone.

Character name: Alec Gideon Lightwood
Character's current mood: Antsy
Character's current goings on: Not a whole lot. He made a stoic and fighty new friend, which is always very cool. Other than that, he's getting antsy and looking forward to graduation so he can go back to fighting demons in New York and seeing his super secret crush on the regular. He'll get his wish but not before I get in one more traumatizing BDE for him first.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Graduation and then catching up canon, oh yes. So fun.
Needs threads with: Chuck, Isabelle, Sparkle, anyone friendly with Isabelle who wants to be unsubtly judged, yadda yadda.

I think this might be the only one I have time for today.

Character name: Clint Barton
Character's current mood: Cautiously happy. This is the happy that comes before something terrible, usually.
Character's current goings on: Not much, to be honest. He's got a great girlfriend, an adorable puppy, and is helping people enough that he doesn't feel totally useless.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): I... don't have anything planned at the moment which is a little freaky. I need to send him on SHIELD assignments or something. OR I COULD GET MORE COMICS CANON SOMETIME IN THE NEXT CENTURY, GAH. Ahem.
Needs threads with: Everyone under the sun omg.

New canon next month! You know, a year after this storyline started.

Character name: Flick
Character's current mood: Traumatized but recovering
Character's current goings on: Not much right now. He's recovering from how freaking awful and terrible his canon is to him both physically and mentally.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): He's going to go back home maybe once or twice more just to finish up some epilogue-ish stuff. He's gotta meet his newly discovered brother and his mother, who he thought was dead. So, good things, but still traumatizing for a kid that thought he was alone for the majority of his life. After that, he'll be pretty much just trying to get his head back on straight, recovering from his canon and possibly switching over to using his real name? IDK, I haven't decided on that. Should he be a Jon? SO MANY QUESTIONS.
Needs threads with: Sparkle (because he'll probably share all this crap with Sparkle now), Isaac, Isabelle, Kathy, Emma, Alec, Rilla, Loki, Chuck, and anyone who can really deal with someone who's a little unpleasant but softening up a bit. I play him the most because I love him so I'll ping him against anyone.

Edited 2014-01-24 18:43 (UTC)

Character name: Topher Andrew Brink
Character's current mood: Excited
Character's current goings on: Topher got into Stanford early decision so he's all excited to blow this popsicle stand and go get matriculated.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Basically, graduation and then college and then canon. Though I want to do more stuff with him before he goes because he was my favorite for a long time so expect to see him a lot during the BDE.
Needs threads with: Victor, Jessica, Billy, Raven, all the science nerds, all the people who might want to be offended by him in the next few months, anyone who might want to punch him.

Character name: Celia Bowen
Character's current mood: comfortable, finally
Character's current goings on: Nothing in particular! She's finally starting to feel at home here and adjusting more and more to the idea of living in the 21st century. (We might even get a pair of pants on her yet.)
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): I have vague ideas about having her do a little bit of deviation-from-canon plotty but that won't be for awhiiiiile yet.
Needs threads with: God, everyone. Eleanor, Elsa, Will, Sparkle, Paige, Cosette because she needs more buddies in skirts, Sholeh because same, Isabelle, Jessica, Alana for great roommate fun, and literally anyone else because I am trying to socialize her like mad.

Character name: Cheryl and/or Carol Tunt
Character's current mood: Batshit crazy.
Character's current goings on: Nothing much. I'm kind of just having a blast throwing stuff at her and seeing what sticks.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Nothing yet but I have new canon to work with, so I'm sure

holyshitsnacks and I'll be using it somehow. I mean, Pam is now addicted to cocaine and Cheryl is a country music prodigy if no one is looking, apparently. Obviously something will be done.
Needs threads with: Anyone and everyone who is willing to deal with the cray-cray.

Character name: Jessica Day
Character's current mood: Just fine!
Character's current goings on: Not too much because I've been lazy. She likes the town and the people she's met, though, even though she'd happily slam a lunchroom tray into this polar vortex's face.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): She should finish fixing up Doomhaus since it's hers! All hers! Mwahaha.
Needs threads with: Everyone omg.

Character name: Elsa
Character's current mood: Bewildered. Perpetually bewildered.
Character's current goings on: She's really mostly just adjusting to life here in crazyland, and the fact that there are people who know at least a little about what she can do, and who haven't freaked out and run in the other direction. Being in a place where other people have powers too is new and novel, and she might actually come out of her shell a little because of it.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Nada! Still just settling in, but we'll see what the BDE brings.
Needs threads with: Karina, Eleanor, Isaac, Victor, Celia, Joker.... Everyone she's had threads with already, pretty much, because you all win roughly three thousand internets. And I'd like to get her out and around to meet more people, too. Anyone who wants to deal with a jumpy little frost-princess, mostly. I'd like to get some good role models into her life, because this girl hasn't had any such thing, really.

Hannibal makes a great role model!

Character name: Raven Darkholme
Character's current mood: cheerful
Character's current goings on: Well, the long drawn out process of coming out as a shapeshifter is moving apace (maybe now I can stop worrying about marking things NFB constantly. . . .) So mostly, she's working out how she feels about that (excititerrified!) and deciding what kind of balance she needs between not worrying about maintaining a cover any more and not dying at the hands of an angry mob. (She's still worried about those angry mobs, yes. Until she actually becomes a ninja, she will always worry about the angry mobs.)
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): More slowly coming out, basically. Less entirely driven by random events and plots, even!
Needs threads with: Cecil, Jessica, Anya, Drac, Chuck . . . most anyone, really.

I keep meaning to throw Celia at her because Celia has like the Diet Coke version of Raven's powers, and would OOH and AAAAH at actual shapeshifting omg.

Character name: Atton Rand
Character's current mood: A stable kind of imploded.
Character's current goings on: Now that the adrenaline of being in a new place and figuring out how it works has completely dissipated, Atton's gotten stuck back in his own head and it's... not very good for him. So he's trying to distract himself.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Once I submit my portfolio for this term, I really need to get to plotting out his leaving-Fandom arc, and all the debris and revelations that's going to leave in its wake. Mwahaha.
Needs threads with: Sia, Sparkle, Jessica, anybody else he can interact with in the months leading up to the bailing, mwahaha. Uh. I need to stop doing the cackling thing.

Character name: Roland Chapman
Character's current mood: confused
Character's current goings on: He's trying to work out why on earth his magical harp decided this was totally the place he should be living (admittedly he thinks he knows, but he really wants "trial and training by fire" to not be the answer).
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Nothing concrete planned. Roland is very much a reactionary character at this point.
Needs threads with: Kenzi: they need to get up to no good. Tamsin: HE WILL BE SO TERRIFIED YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW. Anyone and everyone else.

Character name: April Roberta Ludgate
Character's current mood: Satisfied
Character's current goings on: Between community college classes, Caritas and assistant managing the animal shelter, April's had a lot going on for a slacker, but the fact that she actually likes some of the work that she's doing makes it less annoying than it would be otherwise. Other than that, she doesn't have anything too specific going on, just a general sense of being pretty overloaded (in a good way) with activities.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): April's really the only character for whom I don't have specific future plans yet! She's just coasting, really. Veterinary school might happen at some point or it might not (I really wish the show hadn't dicked up that plotline) but regardless, she'll be around for a while.
Needs threads with: Jono, Priestly, Jack (the girl one), Tamsin, Sarah, Clint, Bruce, Eric, McCoy, Mindy, John, Jim, Ron, Mike.

Edited 2014-01-24 19:19 (UTC)

Character name: Samantha Traynor
Character's current mood: Comfortable
Character's current goings on: Sam has a dog now! That's new. She's gotten comfortable here over the past eight months and naturally that means that something is going to have to disrupt that.
Coming up (stuff that you've got planned that's on the horizon): Well, her twenty-seventh birthday's coming up. There's also going to be some plotty for her back on her home planet that will involve mortal peril and a couple of guest stars, woohoo.
Needs threads with: Kaidan, Riley, Éponine, both Jacks, Allie, anyone who could use a bubbly tech geek in their lives.
