the best thing, that's what it did

[saikusu]

Name: Lils
Contact: flashily, discord: flashily#0311, AIM: lilytehlils
Hobbies: cross-stitching, crochet, sewing, other arts & crafts, video games, reading, watching stuff, playing with my giant kitty Simba, playing disney tsum tsum, making puns (that's a hobby, right?)
Fandoms: Kingdom Hearts, Ace Attorney, One Piece, Tales of franchise, Persona, MCU, Rick Riordan's mythology series (Percy Jackson, Heroes of Olympus, Kane Chronicles, Magnus Chase, Apollo), Bakuman, Homestuck, Tiger & Bunny, Final Fantasy, reality talent competition shows (the voice, sytycd, dwts, agt, etc.) and a plethora of other things...

Character: Saïx
About: He's very serious, gets downright dangerous when he's angry, and surprisingly loves/has a soft spot for dogs. Considering he's a shinki here, Saïx has no clue that he's got no heart/can't feel emotions, so he's going to actually express them now and then, but he's very stoic and tries to hide his feelings/hold back his anger, so he'll be fairly neutral most of the time. He is very loyal, (until you give him reason not to be,) and will probably look down on those he believes aren't the loyal type when they show that side of themselves. (Unless he likes them first, then there will be some internal conflict over that.)
God/Shinki: Shinki
Plans: This weekend I'm putting up a BBS post with him, if anyone wants an easy-in for CR with him. I'm also tagging around as much as I can.
Wanted CR: given who I'm playing, I'd love to see all sorts of CR from good relationships to negative ones. He could use someone he considers a friend? But so far he hasn't let anyone get past being an acquaintance with him aside from Leo, his god.
Unwanted CR: none?

Anything Else?:

Hobbies: Overwatch right now right this second why is it taking forever to update please stop.
Fandoms: Fire Emblem: Fates, Tokyo Mirage Sessions, and Style Savvy (don't judge me)

Now, let's continue.

[minogame]

but they're going to be pets!!!

Anyway tho urashima is a cute, pure child that would 100% sing praises for sheryl if she was just nice to him once. he's also really easy to tease because he's kind of a dumb kid that forgot how humans work so he says dumb things like how he wants to keep people safe... by maybe putting them on nice shelves and glass cases. It's okay if she's can be kind of stubborn and self-centered too because he'll just see the best in her too, tbh.

I also have him just wandering around temple to temple making friends rn during his #godlesshobo stint SO MAYBE THEY CAN RUN INTO EACH OTHER AND BE CUTE???

[very_goodman]

Once he gets an actual location for his idol studio and the training begins in earnest, Barry will force her to relax once in a while. Pretty much exactly like in the CMO thread. He doesn't take any crap from his idols when he's in business mode.

[galactically]

You'll kill the population of sea turtles that way!!

No, don't put people in glass cases! Urashima sounds so precious, gosh but yes, he sounds perfect for a teasing target as Sheryl's list grows bigger each day. He can come visit her classy temple and play with her kittens that way, too!

Effing

[herbalsupplements]

Name: Effing (surprise!)
Contact: effingunicorns
Hobbies: Basically just 24/7 US politics at this point, rip my nerves.
Fandoms: Aside from Yu Yu Hakusho, some things I have been or am currently enjoying include Luke Cage, One-Punch Man, Akatsuki no Yona, Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE!, the glorious nostalgia bomb of DBZ Kai, and a second round of Hunter x Hunter.

Character: Yoko Kurama
About: A cute and helpful flower-obsessed fox boy who will dump glitter text on you just to be obnoxious and has now gone like a month and a half without murdering anybody for the greater good! \o/
God/Shinki: Xochipilli, god of flowers etc.
Plans: If our anticipated Kuwabara apps this month, I'll be having some fun there! Probably also continuing to bad touch hang out with Yuri and reinforce other existing CR as the opportunity and inspiration strike. Super helpful, right? Maybe this will be the month I get back to focusing on Xochipilli's artistic associations...
Wanted CR: Now accepting applications for a new pet project??? Also always open to plant buddies, weird shippy/sexual tension dynamics, general friendship, casual trolling opportunities, and whatever else looks interesting.
Unwanted CR: I dunno, man, bring it all.

Anything Else?: 1) For log stuff, let me know if there's anything notable about your character's energy or scent!

2) September was a terrible month as far as distractions go and I've dropped some threads from that to try and make with the fresh start, but I'm always more than happy to handwave how things proceeded from there! PM me, hit me up on plurk, or comment here if you want to get something figured out.

3) Okay I think we're done here.

[onerous]

> weird shippy/sexual tension dynamics
> bad touch hang out with Yuri

what are we

[sweetdeath]

Yessss, Tsuzuki needs to coo over Sheryl's kittens! They are definitely adorable.

[herbalsupplements]

*grips your shoulder* We're a Bloodhound Gang video.

[sweetdeath]

Hakkai can deal with being disliked/distrusted! He'll be amused that it's because of Hibari instead of himself, though. Mostly he earns his own distrust. I think he'd probably find Add rather entertaining, in fact, once he had the chance to get to know him.

Tsuzuki's probably just going to be bewildered. /laughing

[fontechnician]

Character: Guy Cecil
About: Tech nerd. Likes machinery and to a lesser extent, electric/electronic things. Tends to act cheerful and polite to basically everyone, barring those he despises (so far no one specifically in-game), but also has the horrible habits of not being entirely honest on a constant basis and sticking his foot in his mouth way too much.
God/Shinki: Shinki, his god is Ukoku/Mahakala
Plans: I plan to have him go nora at some point, just not sure how that's going to happen. He's a little concerned that his presence is useless to his assigned god, but at the same time he also doesn't care too much because he hasn't been released yet. He's trying to make friends with whoever seems interested, but might start seeking out gods more often.
Wanted CR: Friends, enemies, fellow nerds
Unwanted CR: Nothing, really.

Anything Else?: Nrr

[sweetdeath]

Yeah, probably! Hakkai's going to go out looking for new school buildings in an open log probably next week-ish, so I can add another starter to that for him to go bother Eric? (Or we could do a separate log if you prefer! I'm up for anything.)

Niles

[deniles]

Character: Niles
About: A creep. A weirdo. A freak.

He's a perverse man who spills double entendres and likes to get reactions out of people. The perverseness has slowly gone down, but the reaction kink has only gone up.

It can only be described as a kink.
God/Shinki: Shinki to Odin
Plans: I'm currently on Hiatus this month, but if anyone wants to do anything, please let me know. I have an opt in post for Niles's trolling here so if you want him to bug the shit out of your characters, really cool.
Wanted CR: do you want cr with him? if so, I want it.
Unwanted CR: Honestly, I'd prefer to have like... no new people who want to kill him for the next few months so if we can avoid that, great.

Anything Else?:

here's sin.

[onedrinkwithme]

NEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRDDDDDDDDDDD

Kensei Muguruma

[kissthegoddamncook]

Character: Kensei Muguruma
About: Like the angriest stick in the mud ever. He doesn't get jokes, and if he does, he hates them immediately. Also punches things.

Still better than Niles.
God/Shinki: The god, Thanatos.
Plans: As said before, I am on a Hiatus this month. Depending on the event, I may throw up a top level. But I am mostly on hiatus and I need a break.
Wanted CR: ANYTHING.
Unwanted CR: NOTHING.

Anything Else?:

[commoncurtissy]

Too bad.

/lurks in your closet

[commoncurtissy]

Hi nerd friend. Let's go eat bacon together and not understand why it feels spiritually satisfying

[skyleopardess]

Trolling, you say? Because these two could probably team up for that.

I totally also want her to see his Yoko form sometime (if he'd show her) so she can be very very mildly put out that he has one more form than she does lmao

[shortnsweet]

DONT BET THE TEMPLE SAKON!!

[noli_oblivisci]

Name: Sleepy
Contact:sleep_is_god @ Plurk; or PMs are always good
Hobbies: Writing, working in Ren'Py, videogames, baking experiments, and steampunk.
Fandoms: Dangan Ronpa; Ace Attorney; Zero Escape; WTNV; Shokugeki no Soma; Noragami; Nozaki-kun; etc.

Character:Psyche
About: A former contractor and boogieman in a secret war between Order and Chaos. She fought for Order, gave up her actual name to become 'Psyche', and gained powers to convert her emotions into shockwaves.

Though she still has strong instincts regarding Order/Life, Chaos, and things like fealty to your god (especially in regards this nora business, gawd), losing her memories has been a second chance for her in some ways because she doesn't have to deal with pesky things like guilt or being in endless war. As such, she's generally a fairly rational, sappy girl who likes cats, likes helping people, is dense as a sack of bricks when it comes to matters of the heart, and has unconscious talent for fighting or physical activities.

Due to her shockwave ability, she can literally turn her emotions into a weapon via percussive shock blasts (or just minor protection boosts). If used enough, it'll run her emotions on empty and put her into an emotionless state - which she willingly did when she had her memories to cope - and it makes her more likely to make colder, rational decisions.

God/Shinki: Shinki. Works for Lakshimi/Forrest
Plans: Mostly, carryover plans atm, she's interested in things like the ongoing nora conversation and has recently rediscovered what it's like when she drains herself of emotions. In the case of the former, she's a bit more critical about it because instincts, so that can offer an interesting viewpoint to anyone looking for a conflicting opinion there. In the case of the latter, she might start experimenting with that just to try and understand that mode of herself...while being extremely creeped out at difference, if anyone wants to run into that contrast.

Also, I've sent in a request for Psyche to regain her memorial book sometime. This is basically a list of names of people Psyche killed or felt she failed to save. If approved, I'll likely do a starter post with this and other things. So if anyone's interested in seeing her stalker style book, that might be interesting.
Wanted CR: Mostly the cliche of 'gimme anything'. I like both positive and negative cr - whether that's just giving her a book or writing buddy to hang with or giving her someone that'll push her buttons and twinge her Order instincts.
Unwanted CR:Nothing atm! Permissions aside, I'm open to talking something out and seeing where things go.

Anything Else?:

[koukai_kirai]

...Nothing. Everything is Suzu's fault. Everything is Suzu's fault and everything hurts.

He'll probably be confused and upset when he catches on, but we'll see how it all goes! :D

Sadly for comedy itself, Hijikata's not that easy to trick. /snickers (You could probably get him on something a little less obviously garish, though.)

[fontechnician]

Jade, go home.

No but seriously, they do need to hang out more.

[koukai_kirai]

I'll hit up the post on the network when I get the chance c:

[herbalsupplements]

Trolling buddies! So many people to mess with, so little time!

I agree about letting her in on the Yoko form secret, he's gotta show off where he can! And also have someone who knows all his forms in case something weird happens. :|a
