Character: Marius Pontmercy Skills your character has: Apparently he can learn completely new languages within the span of 6 months. Also he has training with sabres, pistols, and is a pretty good shot (ayyy clean headshot with hand-me-down pistols) Basic personality: He's very book-smart, which unfortunately does not translate to being street-smart or even practical. He's lived a sheltered life although obviously has been roughened up a bit in the Capitol. First and foremost Marius Really Believes In Love, and his dependency on his wife Cosette can be a bit worrying. Has granddad and daddy issues. tl;dr he's a messed up kid who uses his wife as an emotional crutch. FUN TIMES. What has happened to them recently? What can they usually be found doing during their free time or during structured time?: Marius spends as much free time as he could with Cosette. When he's not allowed to or if she's not around, he tends to wander off, although he's pretty much obedient towards rules, etc. in D13. He has nightmares about losing Cosette a lot, something that's been carried over from the Initiate implanting that fear in him. Despite his outward obedience he's a bit doubtful of D13, again because the Initiate instilled the thought that D13 doesn't care about the fate of the Tributes. Note that memories of the Initiate being the origin of the idea's been erased from his memory, so all he's really hanging on to is the thought and the feeling of fear whenever he tries to talk about D13. Thanks, Initiate! Upcoming plots, wanted CR or other things to note about this character: -If someone talks to him about how Super Awesome D13 is for saving him, he'll probably give a bit of side-eye, and he's not a particularly great actor or liar. -Ask about Cosette and you'll get a novel about How Awesome Cosette Is and how Love Conquers All. -You can teach him languages idk?? lol -Someone talk to him about Napoleon, pls
And basically I'm struggling a bit with something to do with Marius, if someone can convince him to be a bit more active re: saving people or something he will probably do it, especially if they mention saving Courfeyrac or the other French dudes. But mostly Courfeyrac. Also it's 1am so I'm probably not that eloquent or coherent rn oops
