oh hi

[withregret]

Hello everyone! I'm Kero (or Jess whatever floats your sexyfine boat) and I am nnnew and all of that really cool stuff!! I am really excited to be here with all of you. Anyway, I'm bringing Legretta the Quick in with me from Tales of the Abyss. For those who aren't familiar with the canon: Legretta is basically part of the crew that's trying to destroy the world because humanity is hopeless and they want to replicate everyone because that'll somehow make it better. She's at the top of the food chain, second in command, and she basically does all the really nitty gritty work like massacring innocent people in huge numbers, kidnapping people, doing all the paperwork, you know the general bad guy stuff. She's a soldier as well with a knack for sharpshooting and, as her title suggests, she's really really fast.

Actually, you know what, here's her application if you're curious at all!

Here in Save the Earth she's going to be known as Rue Oslo as opposed to Legretta the Quick because "Legretta the Quick" is sort of more of a title than a name for her. Plus, one of her themes heavily deals with "regret" and "Rue" is a play on that so I felt clever. ｡◕‿◕｡

Rue, unlike Legretta, is a generally average citizen looking to make her way up in the world. She's working at the gym as a fitness instructor as she tries to find herself an actual career! So if your character would frequent the gym we should totally do things. In general she's a reserved, intelligent woman who doesn't take shit and thinks before she acts. When she gets her memories back she'll... probably go back to being an antagonist... but for now she's not so unpleasant.

Here is her handy dandy info post! My journal also has permissions listed and an HMD for your using pleasure.

I'm really looking forward to interacting with you all!

Eta: I'm on plurk @ dazzley if you'd like to add me!

i want girly second-in-command fun times ok. so much in common. ;A; petyr's probably going to get kicked in the nuts.

[withregret]

Excuse you, I am the manliest man to ever man in manland.

But yes definitely you know this is already gonna happen somehow!! It's not like we talk all the time or anything.

... And yeah Petyr we'll see what happens with you, son.

[11ady]

haha no not at all. i barely know you handsome shiny stranger.

[withregret]

Your inappropriate icons will not distract me, woman.

[11ady]

Hey and welcome! I'm Fran playing this complex bundle of 3 characters with the same name [Bakura Ryou, Yami Bakura and Thief King Bakura] that are now the same person. Since Bakura uses physical activity to try and work out his anger issues, it's quite likely she has at least spotted him a few times at the gym beating the crap out of boxing dummies and going at the machines with some creepy determination.

[withregret]

Ahhh hello! It's nice to meet you Fran!

Oh man I love Bakura I'm already having Yu-Gi-Oh feelings. And it's really funny because I just started watching it again because they threw it up on Nickelodeon and I keep having flashbacks to Saturday mornings when I was a kid. I'm super psyched to see him here!

And that sounds perfect. If he hangs around the gym often she'd definitely notice, and she respects those who are dedicated to a great work-out!

[struckout]

Oh snap sweet, I've heard of this character even if I don't really know anything about her...! She sounds really rad in short, though.

AND HEY, Lightning AKA Kallie here is studying athletic training too! :D Obviously she's still a student, but she works at the university's health center doing boring counter work when she's not busy being freaked out by the network and weird powers/memories jazz these days. She's also a runner and did sportsy stuff in high school, so it's vaguely possible they could have met if only briefly in the past?

[withregret]

Oh man Lightning! I've never played FF13 but she sounds super cool too.

Ahhhh yes perfect athletic buddies :D Rue moved into Locke City about a year ago so she didn't attend any of the schools, but they definitely could have met before since it seems like they'd frequent the same kinds of places! They could have even bumped into each other during morning jogs or something like that.

[professorwolf]

Hello hello! I'm Gail, and I play the local biology teacher from the public high school :) He's amiably and kind of dorky but dresses nice enough (for a high school teacher). Plus he will eventually become a Victorian era werewolf :D

Welcome!

[withregret]

Hi Gail!! Thanks so much for the welcome. ♥

If he's a teacher then Rue's bound to talk to him at some point! She's interested in getting a career as a teacher but hasn't had much luck getting her foot in the door at this point.

[professorwolf]

He might not be the best candidate unless she wants to go into the sciences, but if they're both n the network, he's at least an available one? :D

[withregret]

She's more history, but getting to know other teachers is always a good thing! :D

[chalicejoker]

Hey there! I'm Airdra, and I play this grumpy guy who's in the middle of learning that he's an apocalyptic bug monster. 8D His family owns a Japanese restaurant, so if Rue would be the sort to frequent such a place, there's that opening for potential CR! He's probably come by the gym once or twice, but nowhere near regularly because life running a restaurant is busy and he tries too hard to be responsible.

[withregret]

Hi Airdra!! 8D

I think she probably would, who doesn't love delicious Japanese food? So they definitely can run into each other that way! :)

[twopercent]

Welcome, welcome! Sob, so many apps from canons I've heard great things about but have never experienced.

I'm Skai, and I play Jack here who is, uh, soon going to be the one-armed man on the run. He's ex-military, so hopefully once she starts getting memories back, they can have some military-style hijinks together! At least until her full bad-gal mode kicks in?

And over the last year, Jack's been trying to keep working out (at least on the days where he hasn't been super-hungover in the morning), so he very well could have been around the gym. Would have been pretty distinctive too, what with the one arm thing. :o

[withregret]

Thank you!! Oh man Tales of the Abyss is a really good game if you ever have the time/chance to check it out. If you dig JRPG type games, that is! :D

Nice to meet you Skai! Military-style hijinks sound perfect. I'm so happy with the amount of characters here who are involved in the military in some way, it's really amazing.

Ooooh awesome, so then she's probably noticed him there before! She probably wouldn't have bothered him if he tends to mind his own business since she doesn't bother people for no reason at all, but she does take mental notes. :3c

[twopercent]

And it seems like all of them want to kill everyone, sob, Jack won't be able to keep his BFFs forever. Can't we all just get along and savagely dismember just the bad guys??? ;A;

Yeah! He wouldn't have taken classes, just sticking to cardio/weights. And would have only shown up in the last several months, so it'd be pretty recent in memory too. He's a little bit gruff sometimes but pretty friendly overall if you're not, you know, murdering innocents or anything (a-and even that's a little bit flexible for now, sob), so it shouldn't be too hard to get these two chatting.

[withregret]

But but but -- villainyyyyyyy. Though since Legretta isn't stupid (and her superior isn't here), she might compromise on killing all the hopeless people long enough to get rid of the bad guys first!! Depending on how things play out. c:

She's worked there for a year so that timing is perfect! Since she monitors the gym as well as teaches classes she can be spotted there a lot. Sounds like we have some excellent CR opportunities ahead :D

[secondcomingof]

destroy humanity and build it back better, you say

interesting

[withregret]

why yes yes I do say

it's for ~*freedom*~!!!

[secondcomingof]

So, funny story. The guy I was cloned from? Also wanted to drive humanity to extinction, so Earth could be ruined and they could go into space and evolve into fabulous superior Newtype people! ISN'T THAT UNCANNY.

Also, did I mention my nickname is The Red Comet and my series constantly makes jokes about me going three times faster?

You know what needs to happen now, right?



















This CR.

[withregret]

Oh man everything is so uncanny: clones, destroying humanity + destroying the world, nicknames, fabulous blonde hair

I agree this CR is completely necessary and needs to happen ʘ‿ʘ Only good things can come of it

[argents]

WHY CAN'T I HOLD ALL THESE ANTAGONISTS

but hello and welcome! i'm kou and i play this relentlessly lawful good kiddo, banagher links from gundam unicorn. given the age difference and that he's more nerd than jock, cr will probably be limited to the network and other such randomness, but i feel like it's my civic duty to collect pre-memory baddie cr so i'm crossing my fingers that they can stumble into each other at some point!

[withregret]

THERE ARE SO MANY OF US it's glorious

Hi Kou!! Oh man yes we need some lawful good kiddos up in here. They're so adorable and good (•‿•)!! Hmm hmmm well she's actually a history nerd under all of the fitness, so she does go to the library a lot. If he hangs around there and likes books then they can probably have some pretty great CR!

[argents]

IT'S THE BEST EVER i'm so used to no negative cr and such so this is pretty wonderful

and oh, that actually might work out well, actually... he has a parttime stint at the library doing menial stuff? and below the mathy exterior that he's banking on for a good job lurks the heart of a history/art nerd too. (it's like nerdception)

[withregret]

I can just smell the fun times ahead :>a

Ahhh yes perfect, sounds like we're good to go!!
