Introduction

[patching_up]

Hello, Paradisa!

My name is Ceru, and I'm new here. I decided to join this particular, wonderful community on the pestering of one Indi. I am more or less spazzing out over here with anticipation; I haven't done Livejournal-style multifandom RP in years, but I have very fond memories of it and am looking forward greatly to giving it another shot. Here's hoping I don't screw it up too badly.

With the onset of this introduction, I am bringing Five (or 5, if you prefer) from the 2009 movie "9"-- which, for those of you who are unfamiliar with it, takes place in a post-apocalyptic wasteland where all organic life has died out and the only surviving creatures are a group of small, sentient sackdolls... that, and, y'know. The giant metal abominations trying to brutally murder them. Five is a sweet-hearted and compassionate person, albeit more than a tad cowardly and reliant on his friends for support. He's being brought into the game post-death (my apologies for the spoiler, there) and the concepts of not being dead and waking up in a world that's beautiful, intact, and has humans in it will be a huge shock for the little guy. Not to mention that his loss involved the purging of all memories regarding the person who created him... so yeah, he's going to be a bit disoriented.

He is, for the record, only about six inches tall, so please watch your step! I hope we can all get along, and I'm excited to meet everybody and start playing. His introductory journal is up, if you feel compelled to greet him. :>

Small Edit: I have made a Plurk for myself, because I've heard that's the major method of OOC chatting and plot discussion around here. I don't really know how to use it very well, but you can find me at Cerulesta if you would like to add me!

(Indi: I know this wasn't what you were expecting in the way of characters I said I'd probably app, but I hope you can forgive me. I felt like he needed some love.)

Aaaaaaa Jane!! I have seriously considered apping somebody from Homestuck, though I'm absolutely clueless as to who. You guys have a great sized cast here, so I'll definitely think about it if I decide to add a second character. I love Jane. <3

Five is perhaps a little too sweet and gentle for his own good, especially considering the world he lived in. But here, I'm not guessing that will be a bad thing; I'm hoping he'll be able to get along with more people because of his kind demeanor. Thank you for your lovely greeting!

[cyan_maid]

Eeeee I love Jane too! <3 You just concentrate on settling in for now, and if you ever feel like bringing a Homestuck in, we'll welcome them with open arms.

Yeah, he should get on with most people here. The kids will like him, I think, since he's six inches high right? A little tiny person is always awesome. :3

[patching_up]

I will definitely consider it! I don't tend to like having a whole ton of characters, but I've been able to handle two in the past, even though it was a long time ago.

And yeah, he's teensy. Let's just hope that there aren't any particularly young children around who want to pull on his limbs like he's an ordinary doll... >__>;

[cyan_maid]

OH GOSH NO DON'T HURT THE TEENY SACK MAN

[patching_up]

That's pretty much my train of thought D:

He's too cute to get hurt. (And yet he gets hurt pretty much more than anybody else in the movie...)

[cyan_maid]

Oh no, really? That's terrible!! :C

Jane gets the short end of the Alpha stick too though so perhaps they could bond?

[patching_up]

To be fair, all of the protagonists have it pretty bad; I just felt particularly for Five because he's sweet and naive and had a hard time dealing with everything that happened to him. I don't want to spout too many spoilers about it, though.

I think would be most excellent if he could find a friend in Jane. I get the feeling that the two of them will get along great. <3

[cyan_maid]

Yeah, I completely understand. I do love spoilers though if you ever feel like talking about it. <:3 Then she will gladly extend the hand of friendship!

Sunny Beaudelaire is here, but I'd like to think she has the manners not to terrorize small living things.

SHE'LL ONLY BITE HIM A LITTLE BIT I'M SURE

[patching_up]

oh dear god ;__;

RUN FIVE, RUN WHILE YOU STILL CAN

(or maybe I'll just try to get them to interact on purpose for the sake of hilarity...)
