PLAYER

NAME: C
CONTACT: PM, or [plurk.com profile] c_for_characters
ACTIVE TIMES/PACE: Eastern, pace depends on work, but will aim for at least one reply per day.
BRACKETS/PROSE: Either is great!
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: Nothing to start with, but if it's going to be super heavy, let's make sure of things by discussing first.

IN CHARACTER

PHYSICAL AFFECTION: Very much not used to it, but he isn't entirely against it, either.
PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: He is surprisingly durable, survives a lot of his own machines going haywire. Being a supervillain, fights happen. But he's not exactly a fighter.
RELATIONSHIPS: He has perilously little experience, but is certainly willing to try dating.
PSYCHIC & PSIONIC INFORMATION: Zero powers in this regard.
MAGICAL INFORMATION: He is a Man of Science and has no idea magic can even possibly be real so - he is very much not magical.
MEDICAL INFORMATION: Nothing of special note.
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: Again, discuss if you have any concerns - I'm pretty open in general.

OUT OF CHARACTER

BACKTAGGING: I will backtag into infinity - a thread can last as long as we're both enjoying it, not matter how long that is. If you need to take a break, or step away, it'll still be there when you get back.
THREADHOPPING: I haven't actually seen it often, but wouldn't do it without discussion - so let's make that the basis.
FOURTHWALLING: Shouldn't be too much of a problem.
NOT INTERESTED IN: I'm good with either positive or negative CR.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS

VISUAL: Well, he's blue. And he's very, very obviously a scientist. And probably also obviously an overdramatic supervillain.
AURAL: Voice is very much that of a melodramatic, ranting supervillain.
OLFACTORY: He might smell vaguely of flowers owing to his plant powers.
DEMEANOUR: He's a villain, but he's one with rules, so his demeanour is surprisingly more friendly if you're not actively in opposition to him.

Evil Date

She'd asked. And that meant he had to come through for her.

The idea was, admittedly, terrifying. He hadn't exactly been good at dates at...well, any point in his life. Really. He'd never managed to be charming, or frankly terribly handsome. His strengths had always lay in ideas, and planning, and...well, villainy.

But there was...a chance, now. Or something like it.

The thing about Shego. The really important thing. It had taken him years to realize just what her passion for villainy really meant to him. He'd fumbled in the dark from 'employee' to 'evil family' and then...well, to realization. That her passion meant so much more to him than he'd ever believed possible. The awkwardness, though, had been difficult. It was an unexpected change for them both, with little idea how to achieve it. This was her idea, a make or break. To either smash through the awkwardness or...well.

An Evil Date.

Friday night, she'd said, whatever he came up with.

He had probably rejected more plans than he had in his life.

But the answer had been right there in front of him the whole time, and it was so simple - that he nearly ran late getting the special platform built. He rushed from his room, fixing his tie for the ninth time. He'd gone for a suit, a simple, navy blue suit. No pinstripes or anything. He kept adjusting the tie, nervously as he approached her door.

Finally, it was time. He stopped, fishing out the list of tips he'd gotten himself. First? Breathe. Ok, he could do that. And once he had done that...he knocked.

Well. That was that, wasn't it? Sa...rescued the world. Him and Shego had done it. Oh, sure, Possible and the Buffoon had helped - but it was her help and his plant potion that had crippled an entire alien invasion fleet. It was a tremendous victory. And they'd been held up at the U.N., given medals. It was a very strange feeling. Well, seeing the looks on the faces of the other, suddenly much less successful, villains had been priceless. But what next?

Oh, he was pretty sure the international authorities were wiping their records clean. But would they still be...well, them?

He sat in a chair in a deserted room, trying his best to ignore the sounds of partying from next door. He sat looking in some confusion at the medal in his hands, a few forlorn party streamers draping off his shoulders.

There were new thoughts in his head. That had nothing to do with villainy. Though that was on his mind, too. Were they heroes now? He wasn't sure. But the bigger question was: what was Shego to him now? Were they friends? Partners? Well, fine, they were definitely partners after this - you couldn't pull his bacon out of the fire on such a scale and not agree that the 'sidekick' part was perhaps a little limiting - but what else?

And, more importantly, would the feelings now swimming around in his head be ones she would share?
