cityarcade | MEME: Who Do You Want to Thread With?

Name: Molly Stearns
Age: 26, almost 27
Where are they originally from?: An upscale suburb in Michigan, arrived from Kentucky (just across the river from Ohio) in 2012.
How long have they been in Darrow?: Almost since day 1, so just over 6 years.
What kind of places do they frequent (work, home, etc.)?: Works at a political consulting firm with her boyfriend-shaped person, Stephen. Lives in a small apartment near-ish City Hall. Goes shooting at the range fairly often. Have an only semi-relevant but extremely attractive gif.
Do they have any special or unusual skills or hobbies? Speaks French. Uh, good at sex? Super into politics. A decent shot, by now.
Is there anything you want to accomplish with them, that you haven't had the chance to? Or, is there any other information about them you think might be relevant? Especially with people/characters in game changing, it always seems important to note that she was once very newsworthily almost killed by Patrick Bateman, who also murdered Tiffany Charlotte. Used to work for now former Mayor McDillet, quit her job in very public fashion shortly before The Purge.
List any characters you might want to thread with (specific or general): WANNA RUN FOR OFFICE IN DARROW? HIT ME UP. In general, a lot of Molly's friends are gone now, so she could definitely use some more of them. She's very warm and very friendly and has a lot of unaddressed trauma!

I really enjoyed Molly and Arthur and we should thread them more ?? :D But like. He understands if looking like That One Serial Killer is a problem for her.

CLEARLY a thing I am down for. XD I enjoy them too! And I think between Arthur and Courfeyrac, when he was still around, plus the totally different accent, she's at least used enough to the looking-like-Bateman thing that she won't be in, like, a constant state of freaking out or anything.

Name: Elias Veturius
Age: 20
Where are they originally from?: Serra
How long have they been in Darrow?: Over a year now
What kind of places do they frequent (work, home, etc.)?: His apartment, anywhere outside, gyms, Raven's place of work, places to eat, the hospital
Do they have any special or unusual skills or hobbies? He's a very skilled warrior. He also broods well.
Is there anything you want to accomplish with them, that you haven't had the chance to? Or, is there any other information about them you think might be relevant? My main goal, always, with him is to socialize him a little more. He's quiet but he's nice and he likes talking to people. Other than that, maybe a relapse with the poison in his blood because I'm mean.
List any characters you might want to thread with (specific or general): Please give this boy friends. Anyone.

Poison in blood maybe meet cure-all in blood?

Name: Lucy Preston
Age: 34
Where are they originally from?: Somewhere in America
How long have they been in Darrow?: Nearly a year
What kind of places do they frequent (work, home, etc.)?: The university, her apartment, the library, places that serve wine
Do they have any special or unusual skills or hobbies? She's a historian with extensive knowledge of history. She also drinks wine like a pro.
Is there anything you want to accomplish with them, that you haven't had the chance to? Or, is there any other information about them you think might be relevant? Nothing specific here. She's doing well, is meeting people, and trying to settle down. More dates, more friends.
List any characters you might want to thread with (specific or general): Uh, just about anyone here too. She especially likes those from different points in time.

Name: Lois
Age: 17
Where are they originally from?: Metropolis
How long have they been in Darrow?: 9 months
What kind of places do they frequent (work, home, etc.)?: High school, coffee shops, probably occasionally the police department to bug Jake and bring him coffee.
Do they have any special or unusual skills or hobbies? Intrepid girl reporter! Loves news stories and investigating things she shouldn't!
Is there anything you want to accomplish with them, that you haven't had the chance to? Or, is there any other information about them you think might be relevant? I really want her to be a successful journalist, obviously, which means a lot of getting into trouble and choosing dangerous options to get a story. I would like for her life to be actually threatened again at some point.
List any characters you might want to thread with (specific or general): Moar teens and kids. Someone she can keep as a younger sister. More journalists. People who can dad her. People who can join her in making bad decisions.

Would she like a bad-decision-making older journalist who might also dad her (or, y'know, older brother) a bit? XD Arthur also tends to ignore warning signs (or actively seek them out) for a story, and I can imagine them both ending up chasing the same secret with similarly disastrous results.

Name: Rowan Damisch
Age: 18
Where are they originally from?: MidAmerica (Midwest)
How long have they been in Darrow?: 3 months
What kind of places do they frequent (work, home, etc.)?: Works at Odds, Ends, & Sundries. Probably will start a gym membership sooner than later (does anyone teach krav maga?). Basically anywhere. He's not picky right now.
Do they have any special or unusual skills or hobbies? Murderbot. Nanites that heal him and keep him from ever dying.
Is there anything you want to accomplish with them, that you haven't had the chance to? Or, is there any other information about them you think might be relevant? Basically I want to have Rowan nearly kill someone bad and then actually kill someone bad. Someone will at some point need to stop him from becoming a vigilante, but that's still a few months down the road.
List any characters you might want to thread with (specific or general): Teens. Dad figures. People who will think he's special. People who will convince him not to kill. People who are okay with bad people dying. People that will challenge his worldview and view of himself.

oh no cute Nick Jonas needs a dad D:

"People who will think he's special. People who will convince him not to kill. People who are okay with bad people dying. People that will challenge his worldview and view of himself."

Sounds like Anduin could help you out here. Rowan sounds a bit "there but for the grace of the Light" for Anduin, actually. He has put his body on the line to stop the deaths of innocents, saved the life of a war criminal who nearly killed him. But he's a discipline priest; he is devoted to Light but also Shadow. His aggressive abilities work on an 'atonement' principle where the harm he does is translated into protection and healing of others. But he also understands retribution- especially if I canon update him shortly...

I think they'd get along well!

Eponine really does need to become better friends with him. She may end up part of murder!teen girl squad, but that doesn't mean murder!teen boys who are okay with bad people dying aren't also invited to her moral quandaries.

...On to my tags, then!

So late.....

Name: Eleanor Lamb
Age: 17 (going on 21)
Where are they originally from?: Rapture, a city under the sea, circa 1960
How long have they been in Darrow?: 3ish months (going on four years)
What kind of places do they frequent (work, home, etc.)?: Children's Home, music and book stores, the park, the Library
Do they have any special or unusual skills or hobbies? Multiple super-powers, odd, occasional bouts of musical talent, high-level technical and mechanical skills which are hit-or-miss with today's tech, advanced (even by today's standards) knowledge of genetics and biology
Is there anything you want to accomplish with them, that you haven't had the chance to? Or, is there any other information about them you think might be relevant? The first time around Eleanor wasn't as personable and she kept a lot of secrets, so I'm really looking forward to letting her be more open. I'd LOVE for her to start dating at some point because she's had crushes before, but never did anything with them.
List any characters you might want to thread with (specific or general): Science nerds and superheroes? But more pups her age because even when she was here before she was never a teenager.

Name: (Prof.) Randolph Lyall
Age: Well, he's perpetually 30(ish), when he was turned into a werewolf, but he was born in 1500, and yanked here from 1876. So really that depends on how you want to look at it. He's been alive for almost an even 350 years at this point. That's a lot of lived experience.
Where are they originally from?: England, most recently London.
How long have they been in Darrow?: A few weeks shy of a year. (Wow, is that it?)
What kind of places do they frequent (work, home, etc.)?: He lives with Biffy and The Pack (Amalthea, Daine, and baby Robin) in a farmhouse in the countryside; he and Biffy will be starting a Darrow version of the BUR (basically supernatural self-policing/investigation) so he'll certainly be spending quite a bit of time there and doing that. The library, bookshops and other nerdy bits. The park, after dark.
Do they have any special or unusual skills or hobbies? He's a werewolf, and can turn into a wolf at will; his senses, particularly scent and hearing, are enhanced and he can heal much much more quickly than a human. He has to turn into a wolf at the full moon and must avoid sunlight, though he can tolerate it briefly and/or indirectly. He enjoys genetics, and is very knowledgable about sheep breeding. Yep. Sheep breeding. Also, he is very good at being not noticed, when he wants to be.
Is there anything you want to accomplish with them, that you haven't had the chance to? Or, is there any other information about them you think might be relevant? Supernatural policing plots! People who disapprove of investigating supernaturals! Nerdy things! I don't have anything especially in mind but he definitely needs friends.
List any characters you might want to thread with (specific or general): Spies; nerds; immortals and those who have strong feelings about them; fellow parents/guardians (Robin will be coming up on a year old in July), especially if they came into it accidentally. Brits. Victorians. Whatever!

He and Anduin should become acquainted. Back home, he's leading an alliance of nations, one of which is populated entirely by Victorian werewolves. He's also done his fair share of supernatural investigating. He was a prince of 13 when he slipped out to investigate and expose a Lovecraftian cult in his capitol. ^_^

Oh, and there's this whole thing where his father was the chosen champion of the Wolf Ancient, Goldrinn: the spirit that was involved in creating werewolves through some druidic shenanigans gone awry.

Daine is going to totally keep tabs on this SPI stuff, if not try to get in on it outright.

Also, I would love to thread Lyall and Greta! She could definitely offer guidance/support on the parenting front. And she needs more old-fashioned friends.

Name: Arthur Stuart
Age: 27
Where are they originally from?: Manchester, UK, but he's lived in London and New York since then, most recently NYC.
How long have they been in Darrow?: Coming right up on two years.
What kind of places do they frequent (work, home, etc.)?: His flat with Curt, the Darrow Times building, events (he's an arts and entertainment reporter...also he's dating a musician), a couple of different bars that are downtown near work,
Do they have any special or unusual skills or hobbies? Looking a lot like a serial killer? Seducing rock stars while cosplaying their ex? Ahem. Um... Writing. Digging further than is generally safe into mysteries and unanswered questions. ???
Is there anything you want to accomplish with them, that you haven't had the chance to? Or, is there any other information about them you think might be relevant? I would love love love the chance for him to get a really juicy scoop - something politically active or scandalous or both, playing off the fact that in canon he continues to unearth secrets even when his job, leads, etc are being threatened and there's no money in it for him -- and calls them out.
He had a pretty closeted, awful childhood (and young adulthood, tbh) and it'd be nice if Arthur learning to enjoy his freedom here allowed him to help friends or even kids with similar issues. Or just if people who've had that same journey wanted to talk.
List any characters you might want to thread with (specific or general): Journalism buddies, politically liberal folk, other bb and ex-bb queers, friends of Curt!

Name: Grantaire
Age: 27
Where are they originally from?: France, most recently Paris, 1832.
How long have they been in Darrow?: 3 years as of Apr 9th.
What kind of places do they frequent (work, home, etc.)?: Home, works as an art teacher at Green Gardens, practices drawing and fighting in the park or on the beach, goes to AA meetings, can be presumed to frequent the gourmet store where Edgar works and Phoenix Records when his respective boyfriends are on duty, loves poking his nose into new businesses and knowing what's going on in Darrow. Pretty much anywhere. Grantaire's not a hard one to find.
Do they have any special or unusual skills or hobbies? Painting/drawing, a skilled canne de combat and savate fighter/boxer, speaking Latin and Greek (along with French and English), having not died of liver poisoning in the years of his life before he became sober. Oddly good with kids. ~~Being hot enough while temporarily-woman-looking to keep Noted Gay, Neil McCormick, distracted~~
Is there anything you want to accomplish with them, that you haven't had the chance to? Or, is there any other information about them you think might be relevant? Grantaire's in a pretty good place right now, but I WELCOME any interesting storylines he could be useful in.
List any characters you might want to thread with (specific or general): Green Gardens employees or residents, fellow recovering alcoholics (or other addicts), revolutionaries, French-speakers, people who know Edgar or Neil, artists, whoever?

Name: Anduin Llane Wrynn
Age: 23 (ish? They finally said he's 18- but he should be 23 by my reckoning, and he looks 30 about half the time...)
Where are they originally from?: Warcraft
How long have they been in Darrow?: 11 months
What kind of places do they frequent (work, home, etc.)?: Park, Nile, Wok on the Wild Side, churches, the necropolis, and Watling Street Community Centre.
Do they have any special or unusual skills or hobbies? He is a discipline priest- a magic user who can heal and protect using divine 'light' magic, or cause harm and nasty psychological effects with 'shadow' magic. He teaches meditation at the community centre, and is working on a community garden project there.
Is there anything you want to accomplish with them, that you haven't had the chance to? Or, is there any other information about them you think might be relevant? I would like to see him get more involved in larger plots, have some adventures.
List any characters you might want to thread with (specific or general): He has lost a lot of friends lately, so all are welcome.

Name: Eponine Thenardier
Age: 16 ~~but [she's] old for her age~~
Where are they originally from?: Paris, France, 1832.
How long have they been in Darrow?: 5 months
What kind of places do they frequent (work, home, etc.)?: the Children's Home (though she's been avoiding it), Darrow High (though not as often as she's supposed to); she does a lot of wandering around the city, and/or trying to get 18+s to buy her alcohol.
Do they have any special or unusual skills or hobbies? Knowing about things that are going on and/or being able to find things out. Sitting on things the wrong way. Light stealth/pickpocketing. Surviving without food? Being incredibly unfazed by death and/or the threat of death?
Is there anything you want to accomplish with them, that you haven't had the chance to? Or, is there any other information about them you think might be relevant? Eponine has an extremely trigger-warning past (sexual assault, extreme poverty, starvation, imprisonment, emotional abuse, eventual death) but she's also a friendly teen who enjoys reading and having crushes. Because of this though I play her as having some PTSD and being extremely transactional/viewing her relationships to people in terms of how she's useful.
I'd really like her to slowly develop friendships that help her with that.
There's a soft plot in the works to start a murder!teens girl gang bent on vengeance against abusive men and basically yes to that. Anything having to do with her weirdly personal moral compass, tbh, and which force her to confront what she is and isn't comfortable with.
She needs a parental figure or a big sibling to care about her while she thinks she's Perfectly Fine.
Also, less distressingly, makeouts and crushes and flings. Sex is a whole nother ballgame but that's also on the table with appropriate Big Conversation content warnings.
List any characters you might want to thread with (specific or general): Fellow teens! People who have weathered abuse, or poverty. Grownups who Get It. Pretty boys (ideally, with curly hair, apparently). Pretty tough girls.

Greta would absolutely low-key fret over Eponine if she's in need of a mother figure. I'm pretty sure she knows of her already, though she doesn't know she's in Darrow.

Name: Blue Sargent
Age: 20, will be 21 in August
Where are they originally from?: Henrietta, Virginia
How long have they been in Darrow?: Almost 3 years (that'll also tick over in August)
What kind of places do they frequent (work, home, etc.)?: Her apartment, the park (she bikes, runs, takes Copper on walks), the cat cafe, the gym, the rooftops...I mean
Do they have any special or unusual skills or hobbies? She can boost/focus the powers of other supernatural people, and she's gotten pretty good at parkour and self defense
Is there anything you want to accomplish with them, that you haven't had the chance to? Or, is there any other information about them you think might be relevant? Blue has just lost a TON of friends all at once, so basically right now I'm just rebuilding for her. I do want her to go to college this year though.
List any characters you might want to thread with (specific or general): Everyone! She needs friends, yo. Also her existing friends should always always come thread.

Name: Charlie Cooper
Age: 33
Where are they originally from?: Los Angeles
How long have they been in Darrow?: It'll be two years in May
What kind of places do they frequent (work, home, etc.)?: His apartment, various bars, his friends apartments, shopping malls
Do they have any special or unusual skills or hobbies? He likes to steal your things. STEAL ALL YOUR THINGS.
Is there anything you want to accomplish with them, that you haven't had the chance to? Or, is there any other information about them you think might be relevant? I've done a lot with him already so really just stealing more things, putting him in jail once or twice and eventually canon updating him through his next book.
List any characters you might want to thread with (specific or general): Fellow thieves, fellow jailbirds, cops, superheroes, anyone! He's very easy to tag off just about anyone.

Name: Dutch
Age: Twenties
Where are they originally from?: Westerley in the Quad
How long have they been in Darrow?: Over two years
What kind of places do they frequent (work, home, etc.)?: Her apartment, Matthias' apartment, Marcus's apartment, bars, gyms, outside, anywhere
Do they have any special or unusual skills or hobbies? She likes to shoot things, stab things, seduce things. She likes to have fun.
Is there anything you want to accomplish with them, that you haven't had the chance to? Or, is there any other information about them you think might be relevant? Second verse, same as the first: TELL PEOPLE WHO SHE IS. I'm getting there.
List any characters you might want to thread with (specific or general): Once again, ANYONE. She's, again, very very easy to tag off just about anyone. She loves friends, loves people and loves having fun with her new and old friends.

I feel like Dutch and Eponine would be SUPER much fun together. Especially since Marcus is one of the few "adults" Eponine feels safe around, so she'd have occasion to bump into Dutch.
