// INTRO/CR MEME_

[eluviomods]

// Intro/CR meme_ Welcome to the game! We hope you enjoy yourselves here. This meme will go up with every app cycle and it serves two functions. First, it will allow players to introduce themselves to each other and explain a little bit about the characters they're bringing to the game. Second, it'll be our CR/Handwaved CR meme. You can discuss how your characters meet, plot things you'd like to do in the future, and whatever else you'd like. Handwaved introductions aren't mandatory. You're absolutely welcome to thread these things out via logs or network posts if you'd prefer. We are just offering players a chance to skip over the seemingly endless loop of small talk in Intro Hell. The game will start on December 11! Keep an eye on the OOC community, as we'll be posting information for the start of the game there during the evening of December 10. We will also post the announcement to the game plurk at eluvio. Please fill out the form below, check out other peoples' comments, and have fun with one another! <span style="font-family: arial"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: 22px; color: #121551; text-shadow: #ccc 1px 2px 3px;font-weight: bolder;">★ PLAYER</span> <b>Name:</b> Your name <b>Preferred Contact:</b> Best ways for other players to reach you <b>Characters Played:</b> The characters you play in the game <b>Anything else:</b> Anything you'd like to add <span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: 22px; color: #121551; text-shadow: #ccc 1px 2px 3px;font-weight: bolder;">☆ CHARACTER</span> <b>Name:</b> Your character's name <b>Canon:</b> Their canon, maybe their canon point <b>Age:</b> Actual or approximate age <b>Powers:</b> What powers or skills do they have <b>Job:</b> What job do they have with the fleet <b>Likes:</b> Things your character likes <b>Dislikes:</b> Things your character doesn't like <b>Hangouts:</b> Places your character can often be found <b>CR wanted:</b> Types of CR you'd like, maybe CR you'd prefer to avoid, etc <b>Anything Else:</b> Anything else you'd like to add

Eichi should come shopping at Cut Above The Rest, where Lando works! Lando will sell him the finest of clothes.

[bespin]

I feel like Lando can fill a ton of those ideas. He's also stuck working retail, and will likely be involved in the black market once he finds out that's a thing. He will definitely try to get her to loosen up (and heck he might even flirt a little if that's ok).

[bespin]

If Sombra goes shopping at Cut Above The Rest, where Lando works, there is a pretty good chance that Lando will flirt with her.

[bespin]

Please deliver milk to Lando so he can be confused as to why it's not BLUE.

[bespin]

I love their TDM thread, and I definitely want Lando and Victor to hang out more, maybe grab a drink. Lando can introduce Victor to space-age living and all the various species that comes with!

[bespin]

Heh if you dislike people without honor, then you'll really hate Lando! He's fairly late to the honor game and is still working out how the whole thing works.

It's been forever since I read Animorphs but I did start a reread in November that I need to get back to (still partway through book one).

[ouzel]

TDM thread is so game canon now

[canadese]

YESSSSS I'm super glad you apped him (I'm pixiestyx on the TDM, sorry for taking forever btw but holidays you feel) and will absolutely throw my snotty alien at him. Prepare to be Judged(tm) for your lack of honor Lando are you scared yet

[bespin]

I feel you! I really am enjoying that thread. and will be sure to enjoy Ax and Lando too

[razzledazzles]

Ignore the account I'm on mobile BUT YES,,, he'll love fancy clothes especially if he calls them fine, sign him up he won't leave Lando alone

[genice]

Heck yeah, Victor's always up for grabbing drinks and figuring out how to be properly social (considering he's literally incapable of being devoted to figure skating right now). Please introduce him to everything, Lando, he can probably trust a guy with a great sense of style and flare! (I too am loving their TDM thread.)

Speaking of, did you want to port their TDM thread as game canon? IIRC we can as long as it doesn't contradict the game's events at the time, and shopping seems fairly innocuous as it's likely to happen before whatever we're going to see from this first event. \o/ I'm good either way, so let me know!

[bespin]

Yes! I would love to make it canon. And Lando wound up working at a clothes shop so it's extra awesome.

[doxing]

and there's a pretty good chance she'll flirt back (even if it's likely teasing........which still isn't bad), so I SAY WE MAKE A DAY OF IT

[allweather]

ah YES... retail hell bonding!! I think this is a Great Idea, maybe we can declare that their respective retail hells are within commiserating distance for an easy lead-in

[genice]

then i disappeared for eight hours but EXCELLENT and what a good place of employment

here, Victor can treat Lando to shaved ice sometime
at a store formerly known as Icy Balls Shaved Ice

☆ CHARACTER

Age: LIKE 10,000+ YEARS OLD due to cryogenic sleep she legit doesn't have a canon age beyond "probably late teens/early adult but with this fandom let's not. talk about ages..."
Powers: minor shapeshifting, super strength, and energy-related healing.
Job: Florist for Nice Stems Flower Shop

Likes: HER PET SPACE MICE which she has with her so be nice to them. flowers, specifically juniberries which no longer exist because her homeplanet was destroyed. lions probably. being in charge. dresses. helping people. saving the galaxy from evil intergalactic empires. OH AND VOLTRON OBVIOUSLY...
Dislikes: Zarkon. the Galra Empire. anything that pings her as evil. whining and complaining. people telling her what to do when she's in charge.
Hangouts: AT THIS POINT AS A NEWCOMER in her spacecraft the Castle of Lions which is basically just a flying castle so can you blame her for hanging out there? no. the flowershop she works at. and idk. around. places.
CR wanted: good cr, bad cr, mixed feelings cr, you name it, i likely want it. anything that helps her get established in this setting, and people who respect her as a princess and authority figure will be a Super Plus.

☆ CHARACTER
Name: Jyn Erso

Age: 21/22
Powers: (ง •̀_•́)ง pure unadulterated rage monster. jk she's just a normal human female who wants to fight everything
Job: Exterminator with Give Pests A Rest

Likes: Being angry at everything, inhaling large quantities of food at once, fighting anything, being a menace, hot tea, Cassian. She doesn't actually have a lot of interests. The very idea of squirrels may well bring her joy, it's hard to know.
Dislikes: Everything. :D Coffee, enclosed spaces for long periods of time, capes, any emotion at all, authority, tentacles, sunsets, the heat but also being cold so IDK what she wants.
Hangouts: Training facilities would be her go to, but also any fast food junk place. Occasionally roaming the zen garden late at night like she doesn't sleep or something. I'm gonna be real real with y'all, I can make a case for her anywhere so don't sweat it.

Anything Else: Jyn is full of spoilers that I will try to mark but if you don't want to be spoiled PLEASE LET ME KNOW and I will do my best to keep you pure and pristine.

[canadese]

OH I'm really glad you apped, I was pixiestyx on the TDM and I enjoyed our thread even though holidays kicked my butt. Jyn and Ax should totally hang though, he is an alien who also likes fighting and inhaling fast food and being terrible at socializing. Also I've already seen the movie so spoil away \o7

[realists]

YOUR MEGAN IS PERFECT BTW #blessed

Well Jyn will not bat an eyelash at his alienness and they can be awkward bros.

[canadese]

!!! I love running into people who have read New Mutants. I am actually seriously considering apping her as a second here and if I do she and Jyn should totally hang as well, since I have a feeling they could carry their own sitcom I'm just sayin

[realists]

literally the odd couple.

[yokunaru]

Hi!! So I've been hearing some good things about your Lando, and how he and Viktor have been hanging out. I'd love for Yuuri to meet him at some point!

[yokunaru]

Yuuri's a complete civilian, so he would probably be impressed with Allura and her everything. Also he'd love the pet space mice.

[yokunaru]

Shows up late with too many glasses of champagne

Who are you again? :|a

[juniberries]

As he should be!

And yes please, Yuuri, be friends with the space mice!! I bet they'll like him.
