[SotP | July 2013]

daretodoBefore I get started, my characters are available to tag at the following places:
Peter: Here and here*.I had what felt like a lot of bad timing this month. Out of the four EPs I've posted, only one's over 50 comments, which isn't super ideal, but sometimes that's just how it is (and two are only a couple days old, so there's time yet). Anyway, point is, it's nice to be in a place where I can look at stuff like this objectively instead of immediately go into worst case scenario thinking.
Jamie: Here and here*.
Bucky: Here*.
Matt: Here*.
Thor: Here*.
Charles: Here*.
Kate: Here and here*.
* Steve's birthday party. Will be linked on July 4th.
But speaking of worst case scenario thinking… I am not technically going anywhere in July (though I will be hosting Leshia at the end of it), but the summer is traditionally a Bad Time for me! So I probably won't be around much for the middle of next month, particularly since my aim is to have all my July reqs squared away as soon as possible (a goal I am well within reaching).
That said, I WILL be very, very busy during August; I'm starting school, which means about three hours of commuting a day, and potentially moving to lessen said commute. And while this is super exciting for me, I've been out of school for two years and expect a bit of a rough adjustment period as I get used to the slog again.
WHY I AM MENTIONING THIS: because I've been looking forward to age/sex switch a lot and wouldn't mind getting a head start on things, 'cause I know I'll probably be too busy to put things up when it's actually time. Extreme ST/LT isn't an issue, I just want my affairs in order now so that the plot doesn't end up passing me by entirely.
If you've made it this far, you get a cookie.
| PETER PARKER The Amazing Spider-Man DOB: 14 Oct Age: 31 Since 14 Apr 2009 daretodo |
Pete! Once I get over my nerves, I'll be submitting a fairly involved personal plot rundown for mod approval; it's been sitting on my desktop for about a month now, I just get weird about these things. Anyway, if approved, it'll run from the last week of August to about mid-October, and I'll send out a bunch of emails with more details; iiiit's a bit out there so I don't want to word vomit over everyone until it gets approved. Suffice it to say, if your character is close to Pete, I may have a proposition for you in the very near future. (Also, Valkyrie is the sweetest thing, she threw him a party and I've been like :3 about it since Brad first approached me with the idea.) Age/Sex Switch: Kinda tempted to turn him into a teenage girl? So… basically Jessica, albeit with hazel eyes? I mean, I guess I could just turn him into a woman, period, and use more recent pictures of Anna Kendrick, but… Girl Pete! Any takers for hilarious shenanigans? |
| JAMIE MADROX X-Factor DOB: 07 Sep Age: 33 Since 06 Jul 2009 howmanylives |
He still needs one more tag for June reqs! Moving along, his FOUR YEAR anniversary is on the 6th, which is insane. He's the character I've played the longest (albeit in a couple of different iterations) and sad as I am that X-Factor is ending, I won't be letting go of my Multiple Man anytime soon, though it's discouraging that his social circle keeps on shrinking. 12 Angry Men WILL happen, I just… need to set a time for it. Still kinda tempted to hold the auditions for that during Age/Sex switch. I think I could probably handle one public EP in August and I think that that would be HILARIOUS, since Jamie's vision for the production is something very androgynous anyway. Do we have exact dates for that yet? Age/Sex Switch: Yes. I want him to be a lady, which he'll take mostly in stride. It's a new experience, and he likes those. I'm thinking a younger Demi Moore? |
| BUCKY BARNES Captain America DOB: 26 Mar Age: 88 Since 06 Oct 2010 onlyapassenger |
After what seemed like an endless cycle of losses, Bucky's finally starting to make new connections again. Spud and Rose are his WWII buddies, and Bucky is canonically not quite as miserable around people from back inna day, so it's been a nice counterpoint to all the serious Rapture business. He views them both as younger sibling types, which is really what he needs right now. Also, in a fun turn of events, he FINALLY told Peggy what his deal was in a thread that'll be linked next month, which I really enjoyed. Age/Sex Switch: He's either gonna be a lady or an actual old man. I think there's probably more storytelling potential, turning him into an old guy, but we'll see. |
| MATT MURDOCK Daredevil DOB: 26 Nov Age: 35 Since 28 Mar 2011 manwithoutfear |
Matt is still quietly dealing with the news that he'll be a dad. Beyond the doctor, he's only told one person at this point (though he may be mentioning it to Steve at his birthday, We Shall See). This is one rare time where I know I'm gonna have to play Pete and Matt together at some point -- possibly as a set-up for the plot for Pete, I mentioned above? -- but I'm pushing it off. Anyway! Age/Sex Switch: I still have his icons from the last age switch, and I think it might be emotional and fun if he got turned into a teen again, when he could still see. |
| THOR ODINSON Thor DOB: A Thursday Age: 1000+ Since 19 May 2011 havenoplans |
Fought a Sharktopus! Lived to tell the tale! Might be going on some kind of time loop! I don't know. Thor keeps on keeping on. I've never really made plans for him and that has served me well. Not gonna fix what ain't broke. Age/Sex Switch: Hm. Maybe? I would need an appropriately hot, statuesque Viking blonde. I like this idea only because Thor would complete shrug it off and carry on with his day. SUGGEST A PB and I'll probably make this happen. (My first thought is Charlize Theron, but she might be a little old; Hemsworth is only 29.) |
| CHARLES XAVIER X-Men: First Class DOB: 02 Mar Age: 31 Since 02 Jul 2011 thebettermen |
He'll be having his two year anniversary on the 2nd! Which is why I just tagged him around this month, 'cause I knew he'd be getting an EP for that. Along with Matt, he was probably most affected by the massive drops late last year, 'cause he lost most of his acquaintances and hasn't quite regrouped yet. He's really interested in why the plasmids (aka artificially induced powers) work in Rapture and nowhere else, and I'm trying to figure out how he can make a more organized study of that. We'll see. Age/Sex Switch: I already turned him into Patrick Stewart and I'm not sure there's anything to gain by turning him into a sassy little kid. Could be fun turning him into a Cassandra Nova lookalike. OR just a lady in general, in which case he might have a little bit of fun, 'cause Charles DOES have that playful side to him. Someone on Tumblr suggested Marion Cotillard, and while I generally like to avoid Unnecessary Clones… I can't not see it. |
| DAMIAN WAYNE Batman and Robin DOB: 13 Oct Age: 11 Since 28 Sep 2011 aworthyone |
Busted out the Robin uniform! In public! On a day that's not Halloween! Which is a first. He killed him some Sharktopus, it was fun. Moving along, he got this fighting hologram as an NDPD gift last year that, in my head, he's been tinkering with to look like his father, and every time I think about it, it makes me really fucking sad. That is neither here nor there. Age/Sex Switch: HELL. YES. He is getting AGED UP and he will be BALD and BADASS. SUGGESTIONS FOR PBs WELCOME. Otherwise I might just use comic art for simplicity. |
| KATE BISHOP Hawkeye DOB: 13 Apr Age: 19 Since 2 Feb 2013 learnfromthem |
She got Pizza Dog! Who is actually named Lucky, but I figured most people know him as Pizza Dog. Go meet Pizza Dog. Of note, she is maybe finally telling Teddy what happened after his exit point, over at Cap's birthday, because a party isn't a party without Dramatic Revelations. Also, we are maybe getting an Eli? So that'll be fun. And by FUN I mean they will probably argue FOREVER, which is awesome. Age/Sex Switch: I WANT TO TURN HER INTO COLIN FARRELL. BECAUSE IT CRACKS ME THE FUCK UP. |

Date: 2013-06-29 04:40 pm (UTC)Yeeeeeah. Probably the best choice. ;D
AWW BUT HE WILL BE ABLE TO SEE HER.
no subject
Date: 2013-06-29 04:43 pm (UTC)So he might just... stare at her. And her tummy. For a while. >_>

no subject
Date: 2013-06-29 04:58 pm (UTC)BUT HE'LL BE FINE ON THE COUCH. He'll bond with Zeus. -_-
no subject
Date: 2013-07-01 05:26 pm (UTC)And old man Bucky might be good. Laurie's getting age switched back to his early teens. So he'll finally have two good legs, but he'll also have only his teen memories so he won't exactly be appreciating it as much as he should.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-01 05:59 pm (UTC)Aw, Spud. ;_; I LOVE THEM.
ETA: also, I SEE YOU, LUZ, IN THE MEME.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-01 06:16 pm (UTC)Schoolboy Spud may have to meet up with old man Bucky. Or lady Bucky. Whichever way it goes. Either way, there will be lots of 1930s British public school slang and a general longing for pirates (it's a deserted island after all) and he will be cute. Especially if he gets his item by then.
(And one day. One day Luz will return triumphant. And most likely drunk.)

Date: 2013-07-01 06:58 pm (UTC):O What is his item?
no subject
Date: 2013-07-01 07:26 pm (UTC)Laurie's probably going to be getting a geriatric terrier named Gyp soon. It's his childhood dog that his soon to be stepfather had put down while he was in the hospital. It will be emotional. Also cute.

SORRY, BROTHER~

Date: 2013-07-01 09:26 pm (UTC)EXCEPT NOT REALLY, he'd just be like WOW IT'S MESSED UP THAT THE MOST NORMAL INTERACTION I'VE HAD WITH A WOMAN WHO APPEARED TO BE MY AGE WAS REALLY A TRICKSTER GOD, THAT IS SO SAD. (...and about on par with a lot of Pete's canonical dates lately, honestly)
Kate should probably run into Loki, though, since... they're kinda teammates, sorta, though she'll be like, "hey, aren't you supposed to be a kid?"
