+1 Well-Intentioned Thug

Hi folks, Salsa here, bringing you a shiny new face full of joy and... a good punch to the face. In a past life, this was Syaoran Li of CLAMP's perennial hallmark of cute things with pink sticks, Cardcaptor Sakura. He's a Chinese brat that wields a sword, has magic, and wants the main character's magic items because they're his birthright, except Syaoran is bad at stealing things and even worse at managing his feelings. He becomes a good person, though, and a model young man.

These days, he goes by Ethan Landes, in his last year of middle school. He's on the soccer team, and he's also well-known for getting himself into trouble - he naturally slides into protective roles, and he won't fight back unless struck first. He's gotten a little worse about his rules since his mother died five years ago, though. All things considered, he's not a bad kid, if a bit simple sometimes.

I am totally excited to have Ethan in play, you don't even know. If you're up for pregame CR with him or have family slots you need/want filled, consider his plot post comment; other information can be found in his application. I'm also, as ever, available for plotting at [plurk.com profile] MaxSalsa. Here's to another big set of shenanigans! IC intro soon!

In after everyone else ever, but welcome to the game, Salsa!

I'm Ren and I play Suzaku Kururugi (Code Geass), another well-intentioned thug. And thanks to CLAMP, possibly expy, albeit a span older here. I also have Clear from DRAMAtical Murder, and here he's Pierce Asher - Miles' big bro. I'd be cool with previous CR, particularly since Suzaku and Ethan have similar looks. While Suzaku's an established only child, would you consider a cousin? If not, I'm a-okay with lobbing ideas...or just having 'em meet going forward.

Hope you have a blast here!

Oh woops, sorry about that mix-up. I certainly do remember Winter, she's a cutie. I'll amend my previous statement and say I hope you continue to have a blast here.

But sweet, having a cousin will be fun. Having looked over his info, they've got plenty of things in common. Although Suzaku's father was not a good person, he was also killed, a matter which was never resolved. Suzaku's always been a brat with a temper, largely owing to his father. They didn't have a good relationship, and Suzaku hated his father's political policies - his first concern was himself, and not the people he was supposed to serve. Suzaku has always believed the strong are responsible for the weak, so I think he and Syaoran would see eye-to-eye fairly often.

I'm not sure if I missed it in Syaoran's application but has he always lived in Locke? Suzaku's been local for a couple of years, but I imagine he would've visited...and no doubt attended his aunt's funeral.
