+1 dweeby scientist and macabre science pun

[youbarium]

Hello everyone! I'm Krystal and I'm bringing in Carlos from Welcome to Night Vale as a Tribute!

He is a scientist.

That is the most important thing to know about him.

No, seriously. He will take any chance he gets to remind you that he is a scientist. It's kind of an addiction, honestly. An addiction to science.

His hair is perfect.

All the time.

Even when he's being torn apart by muttations. There is no bad angle.

There. That's basically all you need to know about Carlos. He's coming in from his canon where constant surveillance is a given and you almost never come back to life/existence/sanity from the horrible things that happen, so this is actually going to be less stressful than what Carlos is used to. 8D His permissions post is here and has a link to his full app + HMD post.

Anyway, I'm open to pretty much any kind of CR -- I love negative CR and would love to see Carlos make some enemies. But I'd also like him to have friends, science bros especially, and anyone who's obviously inhuman will catch his interest for sure. Also, once he figures out how mundanely dystopian this place is, he'll be interested in getting involved to change it. But that's down the line.

I'm really super excited to be here and hoping it's not too late to plot for the Arena! I can be contacted via pm to this journal, on AIM at crystalclearcase, and on plurk at spartabitch. Plotting on Plurk is best/fastest/easiest so do please add!

I NEED THIS CR

[formersurgeon]

Yay! Welcome!

yes.

[youbarium]

Thanks! I really liked our test drive thread and I've heard nothing but glowing praise for your Joan. Let's be friends.

[paidinbeer]

Inhuman you say?

As it so happens D10 is home to an alcoholic, suicidally depressed 15 year old teenage boy who has been turned into a rock monster.

[formersurgeon]

Definitely! I really enjoyed our test drive thread, too! I'm looking forward to playing with you :) I'm on plurk at herekitty if you'd like to add :)

People keep telling me to check out Night Vale, and one of these days I really will. I'm Amy, and I play Peeta here, as well as Perry Kelvin from Warm Bodies, and Cinderella from Fables. Welcome! :D

[swill]

Welcome, welcome, to the Games! I'm Vero and I only play Hawkeye here from this really old show called M*A*S*H. Like Amy up there, I know nothing about Night Vale but have heard of it and picked up tidbits here and there-- and Carlos looks like a fun dude! So welcome (again!) and I can't wait to thread with you.

[titansnack]

Hiya Krystal! I am Amanda, player of the Psiioniic, one of them trolls from that one stupidly long webcomic. He's in District 2! I also play Eren Yaeger from Attack on Titan, who's stuck with District 7!

Both of them would be likely candidates for giving Carlos negative CR, whoops.

Anyways! Welcome to the Games, and I hope you enjoy your stay!

[googledox]

Hello, I'm Tipple and I play a prehistoric nomad dude named Guy Crood from The Croods and this guy here, Brainiac 5 from DC Comics who is a hero but plans to do some secret hero stuff so he's taking on a selfish not-rocking-the-boat villain persona to hide the fact he's from an overpowered superteam that overthrew their own government (when it got all corrupt) like 2 or 3 times in the last six years.

So you said something about inhuman people, science bros, and negative CR? =D

[mediumdrip]

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE~~~~~

[celebrityskinned]

Hi, Krystal! Welcome to the Games! I haven't gotten into Nightvale yet but my roomie is a huge fan and has told me great things about Carlos. :D He's her favorite character on the show.

I'm Lisa, and I play Eva, Howard, Punchy, Penny, Venus and Victory. I'm also a mod, in case you have questions!

[halfa_hero]

Danny's not OBVIOUSLY inhuman right now, but he is half-ghost, so that should be interesting to Carlos.

[youbarium]

o rly

can he run tests on you

because rock monster, how does that even work

he must know

[youbarium]

this is not OK

[gruesome]

Yes yay hello!

[youbarium]

HI AMY thank you! I keep meaning to check out Warm Bodies, so we're even.

[youbarium]

people play from M*A*S*H

I was wondering if that was what he was from

I haven't seen that since I was a little kid

oh man

this is gonna be fun

[youbarium]

I know the stupidly long webcomic, and have heard bits and pieces about AoT. But from what I know about Eren, yeah, that's pretty promising for negative CR. Hotheaded very angry teenager, right? Who turns into a giant monster?

Yep. They'd probably hit it off terribly and it would only get worse.

[youbarium]

I read the test drive thread he had with Invisible Kid and I really like the idea of what Brainiac is doing. It looks like a really fun plot, and I love characters who pretend to be bad for the greater good.

Basically yes I need this CR like right now.

[youbarium]

thank you

/is perfect

[mediumdrip]

Yes. So much.

Anyway, I'm Mel. I have Blaine (this journal) from Glee, Cinna, and Dan (from Watchmen) as an AU Peacekeeper. I'm so happy to see Carlos here, you have no idea. ♥

[youbarium]

Oooh, cool. Nice to meet you! Thanks for the warm welcome; everyone's been lovely so far.

Don't believe anything your roommate says about Carlos being cool. This guy watches documentaries about scatter plots on netflix. His dweebiness is legend.

[youbarium]

Totes! Also I'm just down for the CR. Do you know what Carlos would have given at age fifteen to have Danny's life.

[youbarium]

hey hey I made it in! Which means Carlos gets to meet Some in-game

[gruesome]

Hope it's as fun as the test drive was.

[halfa_hero]

Danny's going to be hanging around Brainy, since his player and I decided we were going to have them be friends like they were at a prior game, so it's probably inevitable anyways.

[youbarium]

Do you want to have it happen in the Arena, or do you already have plans to keep Some busy?

[gruesome]

I never have enough arena plans. Unless he dies the first week, of course.

[youbarium]

Awesome. Carlos, it looks like, will be hacking the PA system at one point but mostly holing up in the planetarium as long as he can, sneaking out to get food. They could totally bump into each other.

[gruesome]

Some approves of the planetarium. It's comfortingly dark.

[youbarium]

Not for long. Carlos plans to light most of it up except for a section he's hiding in. He knows better than to be in a dark, open room with multiple doors.

But Carlos will be sneaking out of it in the dark, trying to minimize his chances of being caught, so he could definitely run into Some then, if the planetarium is too bright.

[69problems]

Hi Krystal! You have no idea who I am because we have never met before, obviously.

NO BUT SERIOUSLY FRIEND I am so excited to be in a game with you again!!!

[youbarium]

OH SHIT IT'S YOU

/drops immediately

[callmecharles]

Well thanks to some creative experiments from the Capitol (RE: Horrible torture) he's been turned back into a human for the time being.

But the plan is to have him transform back at some point in the arena, and when he gets back to the Capitol post arena he'll be rocky again. So they can have a nice long awkward talk about it then~

Just be delicate about it science boy. Orc has a nasty temper.

[halfa_hero]

Also, I figured I should toss this bit of insanity I found at you http://thickerthanectoplasm.tumblr.com/tagged/welcome-to-amity-park

[orestes]

omg

Hey there! I'm Yami and I play Enjolras from Les Misérables, and I need this CR in my life. Welcome to the Games!

[swill]

There is a small handful of us around!

Glad to have ya here. (:

[youbarium]

perfect

[youbarium]

HI I have heard nothing but great things about your Enjolras! Les Mis is one of those sleeping fandoms of mine -- I go through long periods where I'm into other things, and then once every few years I get smacked in the face again by how much I love it.

I am so down for this CR. Carlos will be super excited to meet a dude from the past, and also he hasn't been developed past caring about Night Vale's hilariously totalitarian government yet. I'd love for him to try to explain the City Council and the Sheriff's Secret Police to Enjolras.

They can both be perfect in face and form together, talking intelligently about things, and meanwhile in a 20 mile radius of this event bodices will be ripping and men will be turning gay. It will be amazing, the end.

[orestes]

If that's how this CR is going to end, how can I refuse? And seriously, I want him to hear all about the City Council and their ceremonial meat crowns and the Sheriff's Secret Police which you contact by picking up a phone and talking because they are always watching you. Ugh, this is going to be fantastic and I approve so hard.
