PLAYER: Ichi
CHARACTER: Jake Muller (fairsfair)

FACTS:

Mr Can't-Trust-People-Easily, Senor Let's-Do-Shit-For-Coins, Monsieur Don't-Talk-To-Me-About-Poverty, King Sarcasm-Personified, Hits-Doorframes-At-6'3" Sensei, Sir Has-An-American-Accent-But-Is-Ukrainian, Elder I'm-Actually-20, and General A-Mercenary-Who-Fights-And-Kills-For-A-Living.

These are only some of his many flattering titles.

STATUS:

Surprisingly, he hasn't gotten himself hurt lately (besides a scuffle here and there). He's actually not trashing through puzzle rooms...! Amazing, he can learn. Besides that, he's his usual standoffish self, sitting in the corner on top of all of his coins, not making friends.

PLOTS/IDEAS:

I don't have anything concrete, but was possibly thinking of Jake being... well, Jake, and possibly having bets with people. Also, things like HEY LET'S FIGHT IF YOU CAN MANAGE TO PIN ME DOWN YOU'LL HAVE ALL MY COINS but if he wins, then he takes some of yours. Competitive dumbass things that can possibly involve him winning coins. Video games may also be involved.

SEEKING:

Nothing specific. Jake's already the sort of guy who wouldn't have... well, best friends, so negative CR is always good. Probably more times he can be a smartass and be snarky towards more often, and a sparring partner.

ANYTHING ELSE:

My plurk is lastsummon if you want to add me! I'm also on AIM at sociallinking, so there's always that too! And ending this with a bonus gif, which perfectly describes Jake's relations with most people.

[detectiveofthewest]

PLAYER: Tetra
CHARACTER: Heiji (detectiveofthewest)

FACTS: Heiji is a high school amateur detective from Osaka, Japan who has a very distinctive accent in Japanese. In Vivariumspeak, I just have him speak pretty informally unless he's talking about something very technical. He's hot-tempered, but also quick to drop grudges. Also, he tends to talk and think out loud a lot, especially when murder or puzzles is involved. Heiji thinks murder is normal and happens all the time (of course it does). He bounces back quickly, which is probably a good thing.

STATUS: Lately, Heiji has been:
* Investigating Akiko's murder
* Lipsynching to Iggy Azalea ("I'm so fancyyy...")
* Practicing kendo
* Solving puzzles and suggesting that Hershel baby bird Clive
* And of course, getting pepper-sprayed!

PLOTS/IDEAS: I want to do some goofy meme junk and also a ridiculous idea for new clothes and maybe a gold star whenever Heiji can stop giving coins away to people. Heiji is also happy to deduction at people or talk about murrrderrr, or blab at length to anyone with a pulse. I don't really have anything long-term planned; I just come up with dumb ideas and run with it usually.

SEEKING: I'm not really sure! Heiji likes talking about random stuff (food, Osaka, kendo, detective novels, gossip about other test subjects) and gets into a lot of ridiculous shit like destroying Calhoun's precious houseplant. He's a very physical character, so I've been enjoying having him doing kendo and ripping Snake's magazines and so forth.

ANYTHING ELSE: Heiji is more demonstrably affectionate with physical gestures than most characters, so let me know if this bothers you!

[fairsfair]

With Heiji and Jake in another room, they need to find a way to get stabbed again.

[detectiveofthewest]

jfc TWO knife magnets in one room

heiji is not standing next to either of you

[skyentificmethod]

yes, I feel like somehow this can be arranged

[puzzlinglad]

gotta teach him some fencing soon, that's the only thing i demand

[detectiveofthewest]

oh man, I gotta decide if heiji would be good at it or terrible :D

[blind_badass]

I have nothing planned other than the continuing drama of them trying to get along when they're quite different. And Hershel popcorning. I'm sure I'll think of some trouble they can get into later on.

[detectiveofthewest]

If they add the piano and Heiji finds out that either a) Snake can play, or b) he wants it, he'll totally save up coins in secret :V!

[puzzlinglad]

PLAYER: Hal
CHARACTER: Hershel Layton(puzzlinglad)

FACTS: Just the mildest teenager ever who happens to also be incredibly British and a huge fucking doormat, that's Hershel. Also a shitlord once you're friends with him, ask Heiji.

STATUS: Being depressed about Akiko and being in extreme messes of puzzle rooms red team... Also Kendo Club. But yes seriously mostly trying not to be a useless sadsack and puzzle rooms, what a life.

PLOTS/IDEAS: Notttt really, I'm open for pretty much anything though. Fencers, want to fence? I'm there. Someone want to hide something in his hair? I'm double there. Anyone want puzzles spewed at them??? Why would I ask, who wouldn't, triple there.

SEEKING: I'd love more negative cr but it's not. exactly easy. The one negative cr he has he still doesn't dislike the person so... if possible yes absolutely. Otherwise i'm always game for any type of cr let's do it.

ANYTHING ELSE: NO not really I'm too lazy to find a gif or pic whoops.

[fairsfair]

if hershel doesn't manage to give jake a puzzle, i will crit on ooc

shitlord status

[detectiveofthewest]

Can confirm
Source: shitlord victim

What if Heiji gave Hershel a shear haircut, though
What if that happened

[blind_badass]

PLAYER: Belmont
CHARACTER: Snake (blind_badass)

FACTS: Profoundly blind, profoundly smart and excels in snarky dickery when the mood strikes him.
STATUS: Getting stabbed in the hand as a means to give Calhoun a show, recovering from that poorly executed idea. Also managing to befriend people who are telling him to stop being a dick as much.
PLOTS/IDEAS: Snake is pondering some research about the nature of this game and what story Zero is trying to tell
SEEKING: Snake will take all of your CR. If you underestimate him, he will gleefully bash you with his sharp-edged tongue.

ANYTHING ELSE: Oh why not: 999 Trailer

[detectiveofthewest]

I keep forgetting that 999 involves telepathy for some reason. Snake's only telepathic with Clover, though, right?

[skyentificmethod]

oh right we should probably do a thing sometime other than awkwardly slink around each other

unhappy stab bros drowning in the elevators or whatever

:|b

[eeeek]

PLAYER: Tiger
CHARACTER: Simon Keyes (eeeek)

FACTS: simon's easily spooked and genuinely pretty fragile! he's an animal tamer for a circus but he doesn't remember that. his instincts might make him want to teach calhoun how to do a trick, but if he tries to do that he's probably going to get peppersprayed in the face, so... i guess we'll see. he's scared of everything, he's quick to scream, and he's probably going to be a liability for a while, so maybe keep an eye on him until he grows a spine.

STATUS: I HAVEN'T EVEN WRITTEN HIS INTRO YET but he's waterlogged and terrified. he's soaking wet and probably crying somewhere. alone. in the dark. unloved and underappreciated.

PLOTS/IDEAS: i actually have a lot of long term plans for him, most of them hopefully involving negative cr, but i'm gonna keep all of that a secret for now. for the most part, i just want to see if anyone is willing to either put up with (or emotionally torture) a weepy 24 year old man-child. he's gonna need someone to look after him or he's gonna be a wreck, but it'd also probably be pretty funny to give him a hard time.

SEEKING: simon has an ingrained distrust for anyone connected to the law, so i'd love for him to have strong cr with someone involved with the police or something like that. i think we have a few characters like that here? but like i said, he's also pretty fragile right now, so if anyone wants to be friends with him, that'd be good!

ANYTHING ELSE: ONE THING - simon is actually involved with some pretty hefty game spoilers, and he's actually quite a bit more complicated than just "easily scared circus clown". please let me know if you want me to avoid spoilers around you, either ic or ooc! for now, though, i'd like to avoid giving too much away about him; all you need to worry about with simon is that he's a shambling buffoon who might be a little deeper than he lets on.

[puzzlinglad]

you know what i want to do so

[fairsfair]

DID SOMEBODY SAY NEGATIVE CR

I will look forward to these long term plans, but as of now, Jake can only getting annoyed at Simon's weepy dumb looking face.

[detectiveofthewest]

I have no idea how they'll meet but I'm pretty sure he'll give Heiji a heart attack since screaming == murder in Heiji's book so

Looking forward to this :)

[skyentificmethod]

did someone request the police

[skyentificmethod]

PLAYER: Erin
CHARACTER: Ema Skye (skyentificmethod)

FACTS: Ema is a disgruntled homicide detective from Japanifornia LA who really wishes she was a forensic scientist. In Vivarium she is a disgruntled amnesiac who has stabbed fewer people than rumor would have you believe. She likes science, chocolate Snackoos, and logical guys with British accents, and hates extra work, frivolous fops, and Calhoun. She is pretty much never not grumpy so don't take it personal. Also, every so often she is drugged for making attempts on Calhoun's life, so just kinda...watch your step, I guess.

STATUS: Living with a longish slice across her middle. May progress closer to dying with a longish slice across her midde, depending on how quickly she can earn enough points for medicine. Grumpy and almost out of snackoos (thus, extra grumpy)

PLOTS/IDEAS: I am always up for anything or enabling anyone IC or OOCly. I am totally down with negative CR (and obvs positive CR) because I know she's not the most welcoming. Things likely to happen in the nearish future:
+ fixing gross infections through science
+ making prison wine through science
+ actually messing up a puzzle room through science (let's do it enroljas let's learn our lesson and by that I mean not learn our lesson)
+ managing a steel samurai fight club? ...with science???
+ learning the science of actual knife throwing
+ food fight :<>
+ IDK SOMETHING ELSE DUMB

SEEKING: idk let's do things

ANYTHING ELSE: all of the things

[puzzlinglad]

for god's sake ema wasn't the hallucination gas enough

want to learn fencing one day, that's sort of knife throwing and science, hershel will teach you... also you know motherhen over her injury because he's worried as shit about that. guess who's getting medical supplies if he gets enough bp in the next two rounds.

spoilers it's you and snake.

[not_that_sasuke]

PLAYER: Dani
CHARACTER: Sasuke Sagami (not_that_sasuke)

FACTS: Quiet and polite, with a tendency to defer to others' wishes unless it's a supremely terrible idea. It hasn't really come up yet, but he's very prone to guilt tripping himself over things he proooobably shouldn't feel responsible for and will probably go to extremes to make up for it, a-ahaha.

Also he's a(n okay) ninja, surprise surprise, but he doesn't remember that yet. Whee!

STATUS: Practicing kendo, eating a little less than he probably should but still enough to get by, potentially a bit banged up from the Gallery. I'm keeping it vague until there are more details.
PLOTS/IDEAS: He's currently very expressive as far as Sasuke expressions go, but in the (veryvery) long term he'll probably be losing a lot of that and generally becoming more and more reserved as he gains memories. D...o with that as you will!
SEEKING: Postive CR! Negative CR! I'm pretty much cool with whatever. He can personally take a lot of abuse, but getting others hurt is a ~*wonderful*~ way to get him giving you dirty looks.

ANYTHING ELSE: No gifs here, have some twins instead.

[puzzlinglad]

slams in here

I don't even know what i want to do but i want to do things. how does sasuke feel about gossip....

[cursedchosen]

PLAYER: Jayne
CHARACTER: Zelos Wilder (cursedchosen)

FACTS: Genius billionaire playboy heir. He flirts a lot, seems generally pretty carefree, and doesn't like dudes. He has a lot of trust issues, people issues, and generally just has a lot of issues. His hair is probably insured for $10,000.
STATUS: He had a pretty good minimal-trust issue run for awhile where he was actually making friends and kissing rodents getting along with people! And then he started to get his memories back, which means that his trust issues came back in pretty full force. He comes off as his usual self if he's talking to anyone, but if you manage to catch him alone he probably doesn't look too happy. He was also responsible for the only betrayal in the last 3 AB rounds so...yeah. Clive's okay without food though, right?
PLOTS/IDEAS: The society of test subjects for cute nurses. Competitive things! Awful things! Fun things! Generally, whatever. I'd be up for doing stuff re:trust issues but fluffy, silly things have always been my weak point and always will be. He's AU'd to have fencing experience, so any kind of sword fighting would be good! And he's probably gonna kendo club.
SEEKING: I love positive and negative CR. Generally I'm up for whatever, as long as it involves CR.

ANYTHING ELSE: My plurk is bronnichiwa and I am always up for plotting, chatting, whatever!

I'm also living in Japan atm so if you get tags back at ass-o-clock or I don't answer a private plurk/message/what have you that is why.
