Joysweeper here, mundane to everybirdie's favorite social butterfly, Julien/Yuuya/

espigeonage. I have a second character!

This is Nat Arkadi, reincarnation of Tash Arranda from Star Wars: Galaxy of Fear. Think Goosebumps IN STAR WARS. One day she'll be a confident thirty-year-old Jedi Knight specializing in piloting, reading people, and putting up force fields. Nat isn't terribly social, but that just means I gotta work at things. Nat's been lurking on the network for at least a few weeks, archive binging, and is gonna have to ask for help soon.

Preexisting CR... Nat's fourteen and in high school, but which one should it be? She's bookish and quiet and kind of sarcastic and distant, too, but it's not impossible for her to make friends. Lost her parents when she was about three and Echoed back a weak kind of Force Sensitivity which makes her drawn to or repulsed by other psychic characters - if yours is psychic, let's talk! I'm also open to people related to her adoptive parents, suburban neighbors, genetic relatives of hers who could have soap-opera-y reveals later...

Looking forwards to seeing how she works out!

These two could alternately get along fine and butt heads. Yay for logical children? Funnily enough, it sounds like Toushirou would be the more emotional one for a change. :D Since they're both kind of blunt, not particularly social types, I don't know that there'd be any previous CR unless they live in the same neighbourhood.

Welcome to the orphan club!

Poooosssibly tangentially aware of each other here due to some sort of adoptive parent support group/system/whatever?

Hee. Nat's going to be more baffled by idiot adults than contemptuous... at first. Withering scorn seems like a logical response, though! People should think and not flail around.

Hmm. All I know about where she is is that it's suburbs-y. Could work!

Woo, orphan club! ...I haven't decided how she lost her parents. "Car crash" is the easiest explanation even considering that some time passed between disappearance and her being told they died. Still!

Sure! Nat thinks those are a waste of time. Forced to socialize with these people in the belief they have more in common than that...

How about teenagers with superpowers deciding to get drunk? Incredibly stupid, right? Right?? Let's get some solidarity in here!

And yeah, that's pretty much all I've got as for this kid's living area, too. :P

It can't just be hormones. She's fourteen and would never do that! As Tash she went through a period of going "I'm not a kid anymore" and doing very stupid things, but Nat's not gonna make those mistakes. Nope.

Hee. Should be fun! She was still more or less in Locke before moving, but on like the other side.

They could have gone on vacation hiking on a mountain somewhere. Missing in action, presumed dead?

Bakura think so too. They can sit in the corner and bitch about things together? :D [Or past tense since they don't make him go any more]

That's doable!

Nat likes keeping disapproval to a minimum number of words. So maybe!

There's actually a planet called Bakura in Star Wars. Tash has piloted in relevant battles.

Should make things amusing later :D

So yes, members in the sit in the corner and scowl/ignore everyone club :D

Forced teaming. /says like five words while there, quickly tires of griping

While he pulls out his GBA and mutters to himself :D

Excellent. /reads about chimpanzee culture

Meaning mostly they'll just have a "...oh hey. It's you. .... hi." kinda thing since they know jack all about each other past the obvious tragedy :)

Pretty much! |D

If you think she'd be in Lyall's class this year, there's that, but otherwise there's Monday afternoon Numbers Clubs for potential help without being super-obvious about it? ^^

I'm not sure Nat would know either of mine off the bat - Sophie's a year younger and Aria is two years older - but what sort of psychic stuff will she be drawn to? Like, empath/telepathy, or also telekinesis and the like? :|a

Oh my god I read so many of those books when I was a kid. That fucking planet still horrifies me.

She'll probably end up in the club at least, though she's dragging her feet at the thought. e_e Loners!

She'll have to meet them, then! I'm thinking mind stuff more prominently, other kinds of psychic kind of vaguely. ...Force Sensitivity gets weird with these things.

Yay, someone knows these! Haha, D'vouran the living planet?

That's the one! I must have read at least a dozen of those books, maybe more.

There's a dozen in Galaxy of Fear, but a lot more in the "Star Wars kidlit" category. I really like this series, formula though it could be sometimes.

Sophie's got an action-y portion in her latest post if you like that, or I will keep an eye out for Nat's first post! :o

OKAY. I'm just trying to figure out where Aria would rate. :|a currently she's got mine-control resistance and telekinesis, and would eventually get like. speak to dead/control ghost stuff, but she never really reads minds or anything like that.
