Tag into this post with characters you're thinking of apping to the game (characters who are not currently in-game or currently reserved by someone else). It can be just a tag, a brief EP, whatever you want. You can be new to the game, or simply want to test out a fresh pup. Tag each other with these characters or those already in game, and have fun.

Also, please include the name of their canon somewhere in or on the comment or on their profile page.

Oh! [She smiles, giving something of a laugh.] I'm not that young! I help take care of my younger brothers all the time...

They're gonna grow up big and strong under my care!

[Or they would, if she well... She doesn't wanna think about that right now.]

[somethingwild]

How old are you, exactly?

[effloresco]

Eleven! But I'll be twelve soon enough.

[somethingwild]

Eleven? And you're...the only one looking after your siblings?

[effloresco]

No, but mom and dad are usually busy working with Taisha. And anyway I like taking care of them. It's good practice! And they're really cute.

[somethingwild]

[Relief shows on his face when she mentions parents. Still. She's noticably alone here.]

It's lucky they have such a thoughtful older sister looking out for them.

Are your parents around here somewhere?

[effloresco]

No, but that's all right 'cause they need to be there for Kintarou and Tetsuo.

[somethingwild]

But who's going to be there for you?

[effloresco]

..Well, I've always said cool things. Maybe it's time to start taking care of myself!

[somethingwild]

If you're here, I don't think the city will let you take care of yourself. I do believe they'll place you in a home.

[effloresco]

Eh, really? Then I guess there's no problem...

[But why is she even here?]

[somethingwild]

Well, in the mean time, do you mind if I wait here with you? You shouldn't be alone in a place like this.

[effloresco]

I won't say no, but you don't have to worry about me! I've seen way scarier places than this.

...Ah, though I'm not supposed to say that!

[somethingwild]

...Scarier? Scarier how?

[Now Newt is Very Concerned and he watches the young girl carefully.]

[effloresco]

Nothing I couldn't handle. I'm a hero, after all!

[Which she's glad has dual meanings right now, because she can't forget her last battle. But gotta be tough for the stranger.]

[somethingwild]

A hero? What sort of hero?

[Newt is still very much concerned.]

[effloresco]

Hmm! The strongest kind! The one that will protect everyone.

[She does. Did. But she forces a laugh.] At least that's what I always planned to be.

[somethingwild]

That sounds very brave of you!

And how will you protect everyone?

[effloresco]

Well... [She folds her arms across her chest in thought:] That's a secret?

[somethingwild]

Fair enough.

But who is going to protect you, if you don't mind me asking?
