Gabbu and Elf's Collabs

[[deleted user]]

Somehow didn't see this until now?

[[deleted user]]

Apologies for the delay

[[deleted user]]

What will Nyco Drake and Brax's relationship be like since their brothers will be dating/married/whatever?

[gabbu]

it would depend on brax's relationship with his family when that happens and who he is at the time, but i imagine it probably won't be too different from now. the big brother part of him would probably try and use her to get updates on sol (more as a brother than as a council member) and maybe bond with her that way, while his council persona would act distant and indifferent

[[deleted user]]

Okay. So it would basically stay the same then.

I feel like maybe Kyenath and Brax's relationship should have started to get a little bit better before everything happens. I think it would take a lot to really fix it at this problem

[[deleted user]]

Is it bad that I can see Siersha throwing knives at the wall when bored and making patterns with it. And then somehow a knife like ends up disabling the television or in the television screen and Siersha trying to hide it from Gavriil somehow.

[[deleted user]]

Or maybe she tries to blame the ferrets

[gabbu]

yeees omg

[[deleted user]]

So is that how we should start the rp between Siersha and Gavriil?

[gabbu]

yeah, sure. i'm on the bus right now so i can't really post full replies.

[[deleted user]]

I'm about to go watch something with my mum and not be on my laptop soooo. . . In a little while then?

[gabbu]

i'll post when i get home?

[[deleted user]]

Sounds good to me!

[gabbu]

hey, i noticed you updated the family for phi. which sibling of hers would my character be (i have a guess but i'd like to double check)?

[[deleted user]]

I can add a new one but I wasn't sure what you were doing either. XD so entirely up to you

[gabbu]

i'm making him 25 and haven't thought much about names until today as i was mostly waiting to see what you had for the rest of them so i could get an idea of what sorts of names were in the family already.

[[deleted user]]

Okay. Will he be an adopted kid or no?

[gabbu]

no, he will not.

[[deleted user]]

Okay.

[gabbu]

name: Dmitry Grigory Luscari (the rest of the names seemed Russian-y so i just went with it) ?

additional questions: how would he fit in with the gang setup, position-wise? also, which one(s) of the Luscari siblings that you've already got listed are/is the biological sibling(s) and which are/is the adopted one(s)? and what sort of relationship do you think/want him and Phi to have?

[[deleted user]]

Okay.

I don't know, besides Phi, which is the adopted kid. Gang set-up, I'd imagine he'd be fairly high up or at least favored because one dad is gang leader (I realize I have a lot of charries with two dads). As for he and Phi, maybe not too close, but if they're trying to switch places, any dislike is probably mutually masked and they're definitely able to work together at least begrudgingly.

[gabbu]

that's about what i thought, i just like to be sure. thanks!

side note: the Ruby Rose gifs i found made it a lot easier to make Gray genderfluid (Ruby Rose did a music video a while back on the whole fluidity of gender thing and a lot of her gifs are from that), but they'll probably generally use they/them pronouns.

[[deleted user]]

=)

That's helpful. =) Must be a lot easier than it was for me to find the gifs for Siersha. Okay.

[[deleted user]]

I think I finished Phi's plot outline. Thoughts?

[gabbu]

nice. i like it.

[[deleted user]]

=D

[gabbu]

hey, i was wondering what you'd like me to do for how Dmitry and the other biological children came to be? i was thinking a surrogate but wasn't entirely sure of the mechanics.

[[deleted user]]

Whichever you prefer. I have no preference.

[gabbu]

so for the carlos/cecil-esque collab, the big thing is probably figuring out which one of us wants to be the carlos and which one wants to be the cecil. do you have a preference?

[[deleted user]]

Cecil.

[gabbu]

that's actually great because i was hoping for carlos

[[deleted user]]

Awesome

[gabbu]

how do you want them to have met and how long should they have known each other? should they be dating currently?

[[deleted user]]

Hmmmmm, maybe we start earlier on in their relationship. So maybe after they've met long enough for mine to have a crush but not long enough to have significant interaction? So like at the stage where mine's fawning over yours on the radio?

Also, my charrie's not actually going to believe all the propaganda he says, so he's always saying it sarcastically. But maybe not everyone really sees through this?

Also, he's totally going to have a cat. But should the cat be three-legged or one-eyed?

Also, either Dylan Fosket or Miles McMillan for the fc?

[gabbu]

(sorry, i kept typing this out on mobile and then accidentally deleting it)

all right. so my character would still be pretty invested in his work?

that works. do you think my character would see through it since he's going to be pretty smart, or...?

i'm leaning towards 3-legged.

i prefer miles mcmillan, but it's your decision. for my face claim, i'm leaning towards peter gadiot, but i'm not sure.

[[deleted user]]

(I've done that)

Yeah. I'm pretty sure that canonically that was one of the issues in their relationship.

Sure. Maybe sometimes finds it alarmingly intense but also amusing? Should my charrie be actually for the resistance or just neutral?

Works for me. He might have a lizard also?

Miles McMillan he shall be then.

[gabbu]

yeah, it is. i was looking on the wikia for stuff about carlos's personality, and i saw it and decided to mention it.

i'm down with that. ummm...i could see it going either way. i think my character will probably be pretty neutral.

ooh, lizard.

would peter gadiot work for mine?

[[deleted user]]

He also has a bit of a tendency to a bit emotionally detached while Cecil is clingy, so it's interesting.

Okay.

Lizard and three-legged cat.

Yeah, sure.

[gabbu]

i finished with Rali as you'll probably have noticed. she's not very long or detailed, and i apologize for that. also, for the gang histories, should i make a separate topic under the encyclopedia folder, or...? and on that note, should there be individual topic for each gang?

[[deleted user]]

Well, I lioe her. =) I think a single new topic in he folder would be good.

[gabbu]

i'm glad! normally i'd suggest roleplaying but val's busy and gavriil and siersha are in the light moon's. i figured but i wanted to check. i've finished the luscari family on paper and my thoughts are drifting in the general direction of the kingkillers and diablor, but right now i'm just going to go to bed.

[[deleted user]]

Okay cool. Night!

[gabbu]

i was wondering if you'd maybe like to work out the collabs we had (the cecil/carlos parallel and japsper's love interest, if i'm not mistaken?). if not, that's totally okay, but i figured i'd ask while i had some down time.

[[deleted user]]

Sure!

[gabbu]

do you have any preference for jasper's future girlfriend's personality, age, or fc ideas? i could definitely find something if not, but i want to make sure you didn't have anything specific.

as for the other thing, currently brainstorm actual names for my person so i have something to call him in my mind besides "fake carlos".

[[deleted user]]

Rule follower. But other than that, all yours. =)

That is probably a good idea. =)

[gabbu]

name idea (fake carlos):
Keenan Aristide ???

ideas for future girlfriend:
fc- Scarlett Johansson?
name- Angeline Rebecca Luscari ??
history/appearance/etc-
- abusive parents who are deeply involved in the Luscari crime family (so she'd be like a distant cousin of Dmitry and Phi and also in the original request you mentioned her being the daughter of a gang mem)
- i was also considering some sort of disability (leaning towards blindness or paralysis from the waist down). i was thinking maybe it being a side effect of severe childhood abuse (though she tells everyone she was involved in a motor/shooting accident or something for the paralysis because of the gang thing and that she was born blind).

do you have thoughts on any of this? i'm always open for criticism.

[gabbu]

i think instead of the abusive thing i'm going to go with birth defects/illnesses ??

for the paralysis i was thinking meningocele. it's a rare-ish defect mostly caused by a lack of folic acid in pregnant mothers and it leaves a cyst type thing on the outside of a baby's back (which can lead to infection or worse if left untreated). the surgery to remove said cyst usually ends in paralysis and difficulties controlling bladder/bowel function.

for blindness maybe a nasty case of retinoblastoma (eye cancer)?

[[deleted user]]

That sounds good to me.

[gabbu]

also i'm so ridiculously indecisive about which hair color era to pick for scarlett johansson i might end up making twins (a blonde and a redhead, the blonde being the one relevant to this collab) if that's okay.
