Second reincarnation relationship plotting meme

What?

---

This meme is here to be used as a place to coordinate AUs. Everyone has family, friends, colleagues, people they knew in the past, neighbours, pets, and more.

Fill those relations of your character with other player characters!

The big advantage of having connected AUs is that you start into the game with existing CR. Branch out! We recommend using this chance to forge cross-canon pre-CR, which will then make any further CR easier - ties with canonmates will, in our experience, be forged quickly enough even with no pre-CR at all.

For ideas, please consult the Locations, Soft facts & Gossip, British stuff and NPCs pages, as well as any other game pages. Go here or to the FAQ to ask questions about potential AUs, characters, game mechanics, etc.

For whom?

---

Feel free to comment here with a separate comment for any character you are planning on apping with some level of certainty (you don't need to be decided yet, but out of courtesy to your fellow players, please don't throw characters on here that you doubt you'll app - "probably yes"/"if I can get a good idea" is okay, "probably not"/"only if the stars align just right" isn't). Don't be shy about commenting around for prospective CR and plans on game start - though, of course, remember that plans will be tentative!

How to:

---

Toss up a comment with your character's pre-incarnated name, canon, and AU occupation in the subject line. E.x. "Rarity | My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic | Family Pet". In the body, of course, place any information you see fit; go on ahead and use this form if you'd like a place to start or take it however you feel!

<b>Pre-Incarnation:</b> Name/Canon <b>A short blurb about your character's AU:</b> Where are they in life? What defining moments are there about their history, personality, everyday life, interests... that could provide a hook for CR and interactions? What have you already solidified, what are you still flexible about? Do you have any special plans that you'd like to explore with certain kinds of AUCR? <b>Open/Wanted CR:</b> What positions in your character's life are open? What are you especially looking for? What random ideas could be fun? <b>Anything else?</b>

We are still looking for mods, especially applications mods who will help us judge applications.

Dark Donatello | TMNT Fast Forward | Student

[warped_replica]

Pre-Incarnation: Although not actually given a name, “Dark Donatello” is a sufficient moniker / Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Fast Forward

A short blurb about your character's AU: Half caucasian, half Japanese, Benjiro has moved around (most recently from Japan) and came to Mossgate for 6th Form College to prepare for entry to the Imperial College of London. He just turned 17 and is about to enter his second year at the college. He is a student of Professor Jacob Petty. When not attending to his studies, Benjiro streams video games on Twitch as UVPulse and has a growing fanbase as a minor online celebrity. This second identity he keeps to himself and tries to avoid being recognized. He lives with his great aunts and does what he can to help them (including being loaned out as a repair guy to neighbors).

Open/Wanted CR: Friends highly desired! Open to both positive or negative relationships, as he is an outsider.

Anything else? His great aunts are retired and never had kids themselves, so Ben gets a little too much attention sometimes please save him.

While Walter here doesn't try to make a distinct online presence (general impressions from muse are that he passed up the opportunity to do government contract work, and he kind of wants to stay off their radar in terms of internet popularity/notoriety), he can be familiar with 'UVPulse's streaming?

Aka fellow tech-interested person -> bonding?? Even though he's not exactly outgoing, either, he'll do his best to be a Good Friend/role model.

[warped_replica]

Absolutely! UVPulse has some high ranking accounts in first person shooter games, but he dabbles with other games too.

Yes please techy bonding would be amazing for this genius. No one else in his family has much interest in tech, so someone he can ramble with over specs and all his custom building would make him so happy.

[iamnotgod]

Their conversations shall quickly go beyond our personal expertise!

But yes, TECH TUTORING is a-go. Or not so much tutoring as it'd be Independent Study?

[warped_replica]

Which is why summaries of the general focus of their tech blathering will suffice.

Yes! Then once Ben starts remembering future tech builds, he can reciprocate.

[iamnotgod]

It'll probably get really weird once we're a month or two in - even without alien/future tech involved, Walter has a lot to remember... |D

They can BOTH have fun playing with the future tech, though.

[warped_replica]

Ben can sympathize. His former self did not live long but he came out of the tube with more than enough directly uploaded to his brain.

Why am I envisioning hover vehicle shenanigans...?

[iamnotgod]

... If they can keep the hubbub a secret, that ABSOLUTELY needs to happen!

Also, uh, since Webmind apparently learned the entire Japanese language in eight hours - unexpected bilingual conversations can be a thing?

[warped_replica]

Well, they will have limitations based on resources, so it’ll be a junker by comparison to what his former self built.... And it may be awhile before he recovers that knowledge...

But please it wouldbe so much fun!!!

Oh sweet! Yeah let’s do it!!! He will be thankful for someone else that can speak Japanese.

[runs]

How old are his great aunts?

[warped_replica]

Retired age? Roughly early to mid-sixties?

[runs]

How would they react if a child befriended them and then sometimes visited for cookies and to watch TV and just spend some time?

Kitty, due to her actual home changing so often, has started to try and get some consistency into her life by establishing other places that she can come to regularly even if her home changes, and she's aiming mostly for the retired age range because they're more likely to be happy about the nice kid around, feed her sweets and let her have a nice time.

[warped_replica]

Quite positively. Agatha and Rosemary would be all too happy to have a regular guest to fawn over! They might try to parent her covertly if she gets comfortable with them, but it’d take time.

Also, interesting note that Kitty is the same age as Benjiro’s little sister who has him wrapped around her little finger.

[runs]

She would be happy to work on wrapping the whole family around her little finger I mean

Then she'd definitely be a regular guest. And her and Benjiro could totally know each other and get along well? She gets his aunts off his back a bit. Could be a fun set-up if we want her to find out about his streaming at some point, too.

[warped_replica]

Would she be hesitant if she learns Benjiro is supposed to stay for one more year before disappearing into college life?

Ben will be confused by sudden random child, but he’d be welcoming too by taking cue from his great aunts. Yes thank you small one!

Ohhh that’d be hilarious! Sudden disruption to stream when she enters the room mid-game followed by pleading not to tell anyone.

[runs]

She would be, yeah. There'd probably be a BUT THERE IS A UNI IN MOSSGATE WHY DO YOU NOT GO THERE discussion if she learns about it after she's already started to engage.

lmao yes good (she can keep secrets like a grave if she thinks that there's a good reason for it, that won't be an issue.... but she will totally demand candy or something in return for not telling anyone. Not because she'd actually tattle but because she can.)

[warped_replica]

Up to you then if she founds out before or after. His aunts like to brag about how smart he is, but they don’t have to be specific about where he’s expected to head to college.

Blackmailed by smol. This is his life now. (But nah he’ll gladly provide a candy supply if that’s the worst she wants in return).

[runs]

Might actually be fun to play out in game? So she wouldn't have found out yet that he's not intending to study in Mossgate.

(Well, she might also sometimes drag him places and make him pay for it - like a day at the zoo, a film at the cinema, a ride at the pier, or just ice cream. Things like that, she isn't likely to really abuse her knowledge or make the whole thing expensive.)

[warped_replica]

That would be my preference. Ben is not exactly committed to it himself so yay stress. Emotions are fun.

(Evil child. Making him do fun things with you. Best blackmail ever!)

[runs]

The aunts will approve of Ben seeing the sun sometimes and learning Some Responsibility?

[warped_replica]

He’s pretty responsible already having helped raise his sister...but yes. Drag his pasty butt outdoors.

[runs]

How bad will his sunburn be?

[warped_replica]

The first time? He’s not going to be able to wear his headphones properly for stream. Next excursion, he’ll be prepared.

[runs]

At least he learns?

[warped_replica]

Yes. Yes, he learns very quickly.

Too bad he’ll dislike sunlight more as time goes on.
