HANDWAVED CR MEME



Back by popular demand: handwaved CR! What is your character up to outside of the horrors? How do they persist? Use this form to brainstorm how you're characters have been vibing on the day-to-day!

There are some suggested questions, answer as many or as few as you'd like:
  • What do they usually wear? Western or renaissance fair? Lots of fringe or puffy pants? All black or all sequined?
  • Where they hang out: Are they a parlor guy or a diner girlie? What gendered changing room do they gravitate toward at the baths?
  • Activities they often do: Do they wake at the crack of dawn to do a cute little run? Do they prefer to inventory the general store on the daily?
  • What they're like at mealtimes: Can you talk to them before they've had their coffee? Do they make horrific food based choices?
  • Does your character read the books? Which ones? Do they share the books? Self-help, or romance? Do they dogear the sex parts?
  • What do they do at night? Do they all hang out in the parlor? Do their drink the night away? Do they lurk in the shadows?
  • Is there anything unusual about them? Do they sleep somewhere other than the Staywell? Do they have a particular scent or appearance that might be off-putting? Are they just way too friendly?
  • What their current vibe is: Are they happy? Sad? Are you tormenting them with an awful, drawn out character arc?

  • What CR are you interested in: Low-key pals? Sparring buddies? Do they have a passive aggressive post-it based relationship?

Player Name: mads
Player Contact: [plurk.com profile] spudbud or huckl on disco

Character Name: Yuri Lowell
What do they usually wear? lots of black and fringe and things that shouldn't work but just kind of do on him. He usually wears his hair down or in a braid
Where they hang out: The kitchen of the diner, wandering in the forest, the roof of the Staywell, the parlor
Activities they often do: Cooking & baking, if you stop by the kitchen you'll often find him cooking away, and on the counter of the diner or the reception desk. He's happy to have people help or teach them what he knows. He's working on perfecting bread. It's good to have a goal. He also trains quite a bit. He's still terrible with a sword, but he's excellent at hand to hand.
What they're like at mealtimes: Usually eating with Flynn, they have a standing breakfast date in the late morning. He'll happily join in with other people, particularly for lunch when Flynn is usually out doing other stuff. He eats a lot of sweet things, but also spicy things, and will generally get other people food whether they ask or not.
What do they do at night? He's a bit of a nightowl and will hang out on the roof of the Staywell if it isn't raining, or will wander the forest
What their current vibe is: Surprisingly happy, very in love, just kind vibing and having a nice time in spite of the Horrors (and ignoring the Horrors and the Trauma pretty specifically, almost time to ruin it for him)

What CR are you interested in: Deepening relationships he already has, people who get deep quickly, people who want to get out of here who can encourage him to try harder to get there, people who are unsure of their identity and want to explore that together, people who are down to help him unpack his trauma
Anything else? Yuri is pretty low-key on the surface, and pushes a lot down, and I'd love to bring more of that to the surface. He's great with characters who are Very: very earnest or very annoying or very angry, it makes his role as the straight man more fun to play and play off of.

BREAKFAST DATES

talk to me about what they talk about in bed and also at breakfast. Also what kinds of stupid competitions are they getting into

[personal profile] vibing 2024-03-08 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
oh every stupid competition. They definitely race down the stairs most days, and wrestle, and throw straws into cups and stuff

they talk about wellstone and what they need to do but also probably speculate about their pasts and share notes and try to remember things and talk about the future together

straws into cups competition... god I bet they get into it in the parlor too. Folks walk in to find Fluri having made up some obscure game with things from the general store that they are arguing about the rules to.

Flynn also reads the books to him at night!!

"very annoying"

Hey these two haven't hung out in a while. Maybe Yuri catches Alec skulking around stealing breakfast food (it's free why is he stealing it) some time in March?

Also would love to have Jaune and Yuri be crossing blades for training! Jaune is an okay sparring partner - Yuri can ask Flynn

I feel like Jaune's coaching style might grate on him a lot (too positive!) but he's a bro so yes, please

Just take that annoyance and turn it into motivation to kick his ass, Yuri!

(This is exactly the obnoxious positivity that grates on people yeah.)

so like, if someone just shows up in the diner kitchen to wash the dishes while Yuri cooks, would he appreciate that

[personal profile] vibing 2024-03-14 01:55 am (UTC)(link)

Would Yuri have any interest in some good chill time baking partner interactions? Dax associates baking with a friend-who-isn't-here and would be interested in learning.

p.s. The more memories Dax regains, the harder it's going to be not to randomly say deep/intimately personal things as an off-hand remark, would love to play something like that off of Yuri

Deeply into all of this. Yuri is very happy to teach/hang out while baking. He fills a lot of his day with it bc, y'know, nothing to do, and is happy to hang out and chat, or not.

And yes please random personal stuff. It will probably go over very well: Yuri doesn't really ask but when offered he's good to meet people where they are.
