hello!

I'm laura and I'm bringing you that one incredible asshole (loki) from the marvel cinematic universe. if you've managed to avoid the marvel hype and hysteria over the last couple of years: he's the guy with the stupid cow helmet who tries destroying a planet in a film primarily about a guy with a really heavy hammer. then, in another film, he still has the stupid helmet, only he tries to steal a blue box instead of embarking on blue-people genocide.

here, in locke city, he's less of an asshole (this mostly means he hasn't tried to destroy or enslave any planets recently), is known as LUKE LAWRENSEN, and works for a small NGO. he is also not in possession of any silly cow helm.

his info post is here, hmd is here, and I can be contacted either via PM, plurk at styloroc or super rarely via AIM at the fairground.

and I'm looking forward to playing here an unbelievable amount.

Hi there :) I'm Gail, and I play this fellow, who is a local high school biology teacher and in canon was a dapper Victorian werewolf from the Parasol Protectorate books. He's about the same age as your Loki, which he appreciates ^^ I also play a wizard kitten who is currently nameless but who is from an obscure pair of 90s fantasy books by Diane Duane.

I look forward to scening with ya! Loki is a fun one, that's for sure :) (full disclosure: I play a Thor in another game XD )

ngl, I browsed the comm a bit before attempting to start my app and at first, I was totally convinced there was a fifth doctor in the game. but then I, you know, actually tried reading a few things and realised there wasn't. THAT ASIDE (in spite of the fact that I'm sure you found that tale completely riveting), whilst I haven't actually read any of the parasol protectorate series, I have seen it about and I have been sorely, sorely tempted.

and thank you! I'm sure it's going to be a blast.

Equally funny story: I found the PB before I found a game for him (and didn't even know he was a doctor at first, I am so canonblind XD ). I didn't actually check the taken list beyond making sure Lyall himself wasn't taken. Then I join, and discover this game had a fifth doctor at the time :B Having facetwins was fun while it lasted!

I would suggest reading them if you like snark, werewolves, and steampunk ^^ It's really fun reading.

well, in fairness, peter davidson-as-five is pretty dapper. not quite as marvellous as paul mcgann-as-eight, but hey. not everyone can pull off curly hair and a cravat.

I do! and that's why they're tempting, it's just getting around to actually buying them that's the problem.

Peter Davidson I found first in his role as that famous veterinarian, James... H... something. I am totally blanking on the name. But the outfit he wore as Five suits Lyall :D

Ah, well, expenses. That I totally understand :( Try your local library? That's where I read them first myself!
