The (Assumed) CR Meme + Idk Some Other Stuff

[conning]

All of our characters have likely crossed paths at one point or another, whether they realized it or not at the time--Gloucester's not huge, and the ADI is even smaller.

So what kind of chit-chat happens at the water cooler? Are there any break room feuds over that yogurt that definitely had a sticky-note on it that said 'do not eat'?

Have characters investigated weirdness together--either productively or unproductively? Run into each other around town? Caught each other using powers in less-than-sanctioned ways?

Bet on how many days it will take so-and-so to get written up for microwaving that goddamn tuna in the goddamn common area AGAIN?

Have you been on hiatus or caught up in the clusterf*ck beginning of 2022 and you're looking to get some CR rolling but dread the inevitable small talk introductions????

THIS IS THE MEME FOR YOU.

There's a questionnaire-type-deal for inspiration purposes, but please don't limit yourselves to what's there. It's meant to spark ideas for interactions that have happened "off-screen," and discussions of events that would have been cool/might be fun but you either didn't have time to thread it out or would like to in the future.

The questions are a mix of "what is your character up to," "what do you WANT them to be up to," and "what is their random day like and how might we play with that" sort of things. The descriptions of the Entities and the ways they can be fed can be found RIGHT HERE on this handy dandy previous meme that I stole shit from! I figure feeding (or stopping others from feeding) an Entity could also be a good (or terrible) way to spark some assumed/established CR, positive or negative.

Of course you can fill this out as much or as little as you want--it's here to spark ideas!

Kate Cordello - Original

[bossyboiler]

➥ Kate Cordello

Canon: Original Age: 28 Housing: ADI housing, apartment C2 with Yelena and Winter. Employment: ADI in Administration and Staff Development Permissions: HERE Personality: She's perfectly nice but she gives off the air of trying way to hard. She's nice, not good not kind. She's just so nice. Brief Background: Kate is from an earth with two moons. Second moon has given humans powers that are called Abilities. People with powerful, rare or super unique abilities are wiped from the record and pressed into service for various governments. Kate has just recently found this out and promoted. Knowing about the conspiracy and helping it is causing her to feel guilty. If you'd like to read more, her app is here. Entity Affiliation(s): The Eye Do They Actively Feed Their Patron?: Not really. >_> IT'S SO HARD THOUGH! How They Might Feed: There are a lot of cameras at ADI. Administration has all of your information. When powered, she has a healing factor and can create/manipulate force fields. Open to Other Feeding Suggestions: Yes. Help me! Day to Day Activities: When not working for ADI, Kate has been exploring the town. She makes breakfast and dinner for her roommate. In the evening, she either writes in her journal, crafts or bakes. If she can't sleep, it's all three. Winter and Yelena have been training her to right and be more sneaky. ADI Thoughts: ADI is SUS not in an immediate negative way but more in the way she is going to take everything they say with a grain of salt. Who are they really? Why aren't they really freaked out about people being brought in from different universes? It's a little too convenient that they exist. Present Life: Work. Training. Girls Nights. Future Ideas: Not being a shit investigator. CR Wanted: Everything. CR Offered: The Mom!friend, the work!friend, the craft!friend, the annoying person. CR Not Wanted: Stagnant CR. Extra: She needs to struggle more. And by struggle more, I mean she needs to tell someone what she did in her own world. She needs to realize that it's actually not that great. Visuals:

Sorry is there something you need to confess, my child?

[bossyboiler]

No.

[musicdied]

Let's practice spotting and losing tails!

(Or, after the shitshow that has been February and March, Yelena is probably going to be ramping up those lessons.)

Also still going to be dropping by Admin to deliver coffee a couple times a week.

[bossyboiler]

OMG. Let's practice that. She's going to be so bad. Objectively bad. Oh. She'll think she's being clever but it's going to be comically bad.

Coffee is good. Kate brings Yelena lunch or packs enough to share.

Handwave April's ladies night?

[musicdied]

Yes!

Maybe they should start doing occasional movie nights, too. Smaller groups, friends only kind of thing. Get in some of that bonding before everyone starts dying.

[bossyboiler]

Kate's going to bring home the Iron Giant and everyone's going to cry.

Teach Winter how to cook and bake, too, Kate.

He does sometimes, if he can't sleep, make her and Yelena lunches for work. They're sandwiches and fruit, like, nothing special, but he still does it.

[bossyboiler]

She will! It'll be double duty. She'll teach Winter how to make a pasta dish and Yelena how to bake cookies.

That's so sweet. He makes them lunch because he cares, like a person!

There will also be a movie night. They will watch the Iron Giant and everyone will cry.

[conning]

RAISES HAND. Neal is perhaps the king of "Oh I did a thing and am now realizing it was not that great." Not on the same scale, perhaps, but it's something he can relate to for sure. Is there a way they could start building toward that reveal/revelation? Where is she at right now in terms of dealing with it?

[bossyboiler]

She hasn't gotten to that point of realizing just how fucked up it is. HOWEVER! She has some awareness. Winter has actually helped with that. She can't help but think of what happened to him and what might happen to a Special on her world.
