All Hail King Killmonger.

These are my fun, weird, complex band of misfits! They’re all a bit of piece of me, and I like to have fun with plots but let’s keep them substantial and not all over the place. I’ll plot with anyone and everyone. I’ll do any kind of plots. I have the muse for all my characters and sometimes I don’t, so pls forgive me. Sometimes, I’ll reply quicker to my favorite threads tbh. I know we all do it, but I will reply to everything I promise. all I ask is if you want plots, just read up on my chars. They're here for you, not only for me. So give them everything. if you can’t think of anything right away, we can just throw them together and see what happens. the angsty, the better. I love out of the blue threads, just tag me and I’ll reply in a timely fashion. Also, I don’t do finals (except for one ship). My characters are human beings. They will cheat, stray, whatever. It’s a part of life, so keep them hooked if you don’t want them to sneak off. So love them deeply.

important: Another thing, I don’t like holding onto threads for a long period of time. It’s annoying because of a lot of gaps and what not. So if you don’t reply after three weeks (it should be two but being nice here), I’m deading the thread. If you don’t reply to a comm thread after one week, I’m deading it. It’s 2019, let’s not have January threads in May.

triggers: I don’t do detailed rape. That’s a definite no for me. I don’t want any parts of it. So keep that s**t over there! I’m fine w/ any kind of violence. as long as it’s not overexaggerated kind of violence. let’s stay realistic here. I don’t do incest. I do M threads and I know some of you don’t. I don’t have a problem with a fade to black. if you’re comfortable w/ that, we can. you don’t have to ask. Also, M threads don’t have to be planned out if they happen they happen, but we don’t have to do them every time.

word count: I really don’t have one tbh. RF (I know it works for most) or long threads. I love both. I will try and match you though. I will say this, you DO NOT have to match me if I tend to ramble in a thread unless you want to match me then that’s fine. the more, the merrier.

activity: I work and have a life from this, but I do try and reply every day. All I want is that you just remind me if I EVER MISS ANYTHING. I keep a tracker and keeping it updated.

Also, if you want to plot and want to talk things out: PM on [user=1574,18]SHANE HUTCH[/user] or hmu on discord! If you read all of this, you a real MVP. I appreciate it!

enemies
asher can be an asshole. he knows that for a fact. he's not going to be nice to everyone. he can be a bit cocky and likes to think he's the shit but he really is a fuck boy at best. he’s also seen as white trash. it really doesn’t matter if he is doing better than his siblings (most at best), the last name will always deem him white trash and really cares for white trash.

romance
sher is someone who isn't looking for love. he was in a relationship w/ [user=1267,19]DAMON BECKETT[/user] but ended the man couldn't keep his hands to himself. his last recent relationship was with [user=1723,18]RAJA HOLLIS[/user], things ended abruptly since the other man is younger. he still has feelings for the other male, but right now, he's just all about having a good time and just enjoying those moments with the people coming in and out of his life. he's a busy man, but he does have needs. he really doesn't care who you are, he's going to like you for you, but this is pretty much open.

enemies
when it comes to someone messing with her money, she doesn’t like you. if you come at her sideways, she doesn’t like you. if you betray her in any kind of way, she doesn’t like you. if you can’t take her when she’s at her low, she doesn’t like you. if you play dumb, she don’t like you.

romance
her teenage crush nola came back into her world. they finally admitted their feelings to each other and now, finally seeing each other but a little strained since nola admitted to cheating. she gave the woman another chance but it didn’t last since they ended it because ava isn’t ready to just give up her job so easily. ever since the breakup, she’s been talking (and fucking) remy. the girl is happy right now. so anything exes, flings, one night stands could help. so this is sort of open.

enemies
he wasn’t the best person to be around. he’s probably burned bridges with a lot of people. he was a totally asshole (he still can be). he can’t be friends with everyone, and he really doesn’t like people...well people who messes/dislikes his family. he can’t please the world and he knows that everyone can’t please him. so try him.

romance
beau has been in relationships in and out of his life. they were never committed nor last long because of his drug/alcohol abuse. he was in a semi-relationship with [user=1720,23]MARCEL BEAUREGARD[/user] and still has love for him. but after a drunken one night stand, he met [user=1812,18]CHANCE MOORE[/user] and two have been inseparable since. so can have exes, flings, one stands, they’re welcome, but this is closed.

---

friends
charlie's been here for a minute, so i want her to have some established friends already, but charlie is always open to meeting and making new friends. she loves to have conversation and enjoys having a good time. she's a bit on the mature side but it doesn't mean the woman is boring. she does like to go out for drinks, shoot the shit, tends to enjoy video games, enjoy a good ol' hotbox. whenever she has the time, she likes to be around her family or her friends.

enemies
charlie is very open with everyone and definitely doesn't hold anything back. she could rub people the wrong way with the things she would say. the woman is way past high school and doesn't have time for the pettiness. she does speak before she thinks and can be a bit of a sarcastic bitch. i mean... not everyone can like her.

romance
charlie was married to her high school sweetheart from the age of 22 to the 25. she never thought of love to run its course with someone you thought you would spend your life with. she's dated here and there until getting serious with sadie. they've been together for the last five years, but her love for her is running thin. she wouldn't be able to have someone who doesn't want to be wanted. so this is open. give her everything.

- the woman is literally wanting to date, but still hung up on her ex/father of her child.

---

friends
she's definitely the life of the party and likes to have a good time. just because she's a little bit on the older side, doesn't mean she hasn't lost out on her fun side. she made friends with vic dempsey, but she’s working on her comfort zone with people. you can’t trust everyone, but she’s willing to give it a chance.

enemies
what are those to be exactly? she feels like she’s too old for the bullshit and really doesn’t care if anyone doesn’t like her or not. just because she comes from the infamous kelly family doesn't mean she should be someone to fear. okay, maybe a little, but she is approachable. she doesn't bite.

romance
committing to a relationship is a tough one since every man she's been with since rick has been compared to him. she really hasn’t allowed herself to go down that route again with love because sadly enough, mr. gotti has a hold on her heart. she doesn’t oppose to dating. she’s all about it. she still wants to get out as much as she can before she’s deemed “too old” for the dating scene. also, she’s sort in a relationship with her ex, but she really doesn’t know what their status is, but the woman is happy to have him around again. if not to add more to this, but she’s been getting acquainted with vic dempsey as well. sort of complicated but open.

enemies
he’s not about the negativity. keep that shit over there. he knows that he’s not the best person when it comes to hanging out since this man is a double major at harding. whenever he’s not studying, working or in class, the man can be at home with the phone off, under his covers. he can be a stubborn asshole and knows he can rub people the wrong way. he’s (sort of) sorry about that. it’s either get with the program or not at all.

romance
devin is a man with needs. he likes to have himself options, but at the moment, he seems to be too busy for anyone. along with enjoying women, he has an attraction to men, but the man is crushing hard on his best friend [user=1815,18]XIU MOON[/user]. so as of right now, he is a single man, trying to figure everything out. so this is semi-open.

surprisingly can talk your ear off. he loves hosting parties and mingling even though most people will peg him for an introvert. It's really his OCPD that gets in the way of his good time because he's not super flexible when it comes to his time so most people think he only wants to be friends when it's convenient for him.

enemies
he's also very much a know-it-all/better-than-you person. Typically condescending when confronted.

Joel is a people person and a people pleaser. Maybe, it comes with the territory of being a performer for many years. I think he would have a lot of friends, especially from church... he is very adaptable and he's down for anything except binge-drinking and doing drugs.

enemies
he is very critical of other people and while he's not the kind to pick fights with random strangers and chooses to keep his judgments to himself, the same can not be said when he's dealing with people close to him.

He's very well-educated and well-mannered. he spent the last twenty years traveling, writing, speaking at universities and is now here to be with his new wife, Georgie, while she finishes her master's degree.

friends
he has a lot of friends from all over the world. he's new in town but with his personality, it should be easy for him to find people he'd vibe with and invite over for dinners and wine.

enemies
i wouldn't say it's impossible... he just doesn't hold grudges and surprisingly never takes anything personally to be affected

romance
super closed because he will never cheat on Georgie... but temptations are nice so they can have something to fight about?

nickname: Val
into: coffee, teen dramas, urban gardening, charcoal (4yo guide dog), and ensuring that Lili doesn't grow up to be an old maid because she too busy taking care of her half-blind dad
in ashwick since: 1979

Val is sunshine personified, appropriately hailing from the Sunshine State, Florida. He has been working for Ashwick times for over a decade and had dreams of becoming a travel writer when he was younger. His wife died in 2006 due to cancer, he is also diagnosed with retinitis pigmentosa which means he's going blind... he can't drive a car so someone drive him around.

friends
lots! He's friendly, genuinely nice and very in with the younger folks because he's just a dorky dad with plenty of dad jokes

enemies
people who hate dad jokes

romance
is the last thing on his mind, tbh. he flirts a little, goes on dates sometimes but very rarely... he felt like he already met and married the love of his life BUT DEFINITELY GIVE HIM THINGS, he won't know how to deal with it

Nickname: Xian
into: hanging out, social media, getting good grades, playing the piano, teen stuff, etc
in ashwick since: 2016 (but he went to school for a bit before moving to the philippines and have been spending her summers here before then)

Xian is smarter than he lets on, more studious and an overachiever on the down low but so terrified of being pegged as the "Asian Nerd" so he tries to act cool and whatever. His parent are super rich, too. He went to rehab twice in the last year--the first time for overdosing on Adderall and the second for a suicide attempt but hush, he doesn't really tell people that. he's got a lot of issues that i'm not gonna put here because it'll get long... anyway, he's trying to be better and doing all he can so his acceptance letters from Berkeley and Stanford doesn't get revoked.

friends
i imagine he had lots of friends from Lincoln... he's bff's with Sterling so he's quite in the popular crowd and maybe a few from Beauford after he transferred. He's kind of moody and it's really hot and cold situation for him

enemies
see above... he can be nice but he's also a totall asshole to some people.

romance
i wouldn't say closed because he's young... but he's currently exploring his attraction to guys (or in his case, just to Indio, sooo) but he's also gotten his FWB/crush Nadja pregnant. things are kind of complicated.
