AU PLANNING MEME

Given the nature of AU, below is a form that can be used for planning purposes when plotting out your character. While it is not required to fill out the form, we encourage you take a look at the listings in this post and use them as a guide when setting up plots or planning character backgrounds.

<b>Player Name:</b> (What name you go by in-game) <b>Contact Info:</b> (What is the best way to contact you for plotting purposes) <b>Character Name:</b> (The name of your character) <b>Canon Name:</b> (What canon they come from) <b>Brief History:</b> (A brief blurb about the character, does not have to be overly detailed. This is used to give a basic idea of who this character is) <b>AU Ideas:</b> (Here is where you talk about what plans you may have for your character's intended AU. Reading this, others should hopefully get an idea of what you intend to do with your character's back story pertaining to the game's setting.) <b>Looking For:</b> (This section is for hypothetical things you would like to see, be it events, people related to them, whatever; canon parallels, character proxies, all of that goes here.) <b>Anything else?:</b> (Anything that you feel has been overlooked or that should be noted goes here.)

OH MY GOD OTONASHI hi sorry I have an Angel Beats problem it is my favorite.

Anyway, since Otonashi's so poor, if he needs help with anything, he could always get into debt with the yakuza Team Not!Rocket Kuzuryuu's gangster family here. Plus Kuzuryuu knows what it's like to have an adorable little sister, even if Kuzuryuu's is. A little more, uh. Demanding.

EXCUSE ME that doesn't sound like a problem that sounds like new friend because we have something in common. The amount of AB! characters I have is kind of sad (even if this is my consistent one...)

He could definitely get in debt with them in preparation for great things if some of his jobs fell through, for instance... and then totally forget that this was the case after his accident, maybe? But getting tangled up with a gangster family sounds just like the kind of horrible thing I'd like to inflict on my tragic dead kid family!!

[biteoutofcrime]

I only have one AB! journal and I was too scared to use it ever hahahaha god though I stream the show, like, regularly for any friend of mine who hasn't seen it yet. It's that good.

Oh god poor Otonashi. WHY HAVEN'T YOU MADE YOUR FUCKING PAYMENTS IN TWO MONTHS uhh what payments UHHH uhhhhhhhhhhhh UHHHHHHHHH.....It's okay though, Kuzuryuu is kind of nice, just start paying them again now.

[trainwrecking]

I hear that a lot, actually! And I'm just like nnnnnnoooo but there's nothing to be afraid of! Especially with these guys they either love everyone so fiercely or are just weird and themselves. MAYBE SOMEDAY WE'LL EVEN HAVE THAT VISUAL NOVEL, HUH. but oooh I'm always happy to find people who know this canon and can be excited with me! ♥ I have Iwasawa who I never actually play, Yui, and recently made a Hinata on a whim since he's another fave, but that I may or may not use ahhh.

WHAT PAYMENTS UM UM. /SLINKS AWAY This sounds like such a great disaster. I haven't yet decided where he should live! Where is Kuzuryuu living? I may try one of the newer cities, I have to think about it!!

[biteoutofcrime]

Oh gosh Yui and Iwasawa and Otonashi. I have a Hinata journal too but I've been considering making one for Otonashi on and off for a while. He's just such a good kid. GOD WILL WE EVER GET THAT VN who even knows.

Kuzuryuu lives in the Ninetails Vale neighborhood of Union City, which is a spoooooooky area that's home to a bunch of Ghost- and Psychic-type Enlightened and has kind of a bad rep. His friend Maya Fey's been doing a lot of positive PR for it, and it's probably a little cheaper to live there than in swankier parts of town.

Hinata's a popular one but rarely played, which is tragic! I'd love to see more, so you know if you ever want to play either Hinata or Otonashi I'd totally be game for it ♥ NOT THAT I'M OVERINVESTED OR ANYTHING sighs deeply at self and life choices. BUT YEAH GODDAMNIT WHAT DO YOU MEAN "DELAYED INDEFINITELY AGAIN" we had CGs and a release schedule. Finally someone else who understands this pain and can suffer with me...

Oooh, bad part of town? I'd be up for that! Since Otonashi has no mention of parents I'm still working out their deal, but I might just go with basic abandonment or the remaining survivor of the pair being ~lost, never to be seen again~ I'm not sure.

[biteoutofcrime]

MAYBE SOMEDAY. Maybe after I watch Angel Beats again for the five thousandth time.

MAYA WOULD INSIST IT IS NOT A BAD PART OF TOWN but uhh Kuzuryuu lives there so she may be kidding herself a little. Either way Kuzuryuu will treat Otonashi like an adult and expect him to take responsibility for his debts but also isn't gonna be, like, unreasonable about it. Except as his position in society necessitates it. And by society I mean the yakuza.

[trainwrecking]

YES good that would be excellent. Maybe I will watch it again also since it has been a while now...

Yakuza counts as society! S-sort of. He will... try to take responsibility for it but also probably be kind of a brat about it at first like what do you mean I'm in debt are you just trying to mess with me I DON'T EVEN REMEMBER THIS "DEBT"

Since part of his thing with Shino is that they were pushed around a lot. I MEAN HE COULD ALWAYS GO THE A+ ROUTE OF "PROVE TO ME THAT I ACTUALLY HAVE DEBT AND YOU'RE SERIOUS."

[biteoutofcrime]

YOU WANNA SEE THE PAPERS YOU LITTLE SHIT I WILL SHOW YOU THE FUCKIN' PAPERS

Proceeds to show him the papers

The yakuza is a business Otonashi you don't even know
