OOC: Me + SOTP + thread ideas
State of the me:
I’ve been an absolutely dreadful role play person over the last few months, and don’t I know it. Busy work, increased involvement with some non-work organizations, and the dreadful state of the world has just sapped away all my energy. You’d think that rp would make a good escape from all that, but for a while there it turned into one more emotional (and time) commitment that I couldn’t handle. I deeply appreciate everyone’s patience with me! Though my life is still busy, and I am still going to be a slow tagger (let’s be honest, I was a slow tagger before it was cool), I am itching to get back into writing, and I think I’m ready to give it another go.
I’m using this SOTP to catch people up on what my pups have being doing MIA, and to get some thread ideas going. What have your pups been up to that my pups should know about? What should our pups do next? What newbies should my pups meet? Gimme ideas. :D
Henri Combeferre
Unsurprisingly, Henri’s life centers around taking care of little Sybbie these days. Though I never formally played it out, he dropped out of medical school shortly after Sybil disappeared, and is back to teaching science classes at Darrow Community College. Friends probably haven’t seen a whole lot of him - not because anything is super wrong, but because being a single dad has eaten most of his life. I am assuming that Courfeyrac has dragged him out a couple times, so he hasn’t been a complete hermit. Just notably absent. I want to do an EP with him officially adopting Sybbie (he would have done it before now, but it’s a thing I want to capture so *handwave*), so that should be coming soonish.
Thread ideas: General hanging out with friends while looking after Sybbie. Making parent friends. Meeting ladies he might crush on because I’d like him to get into a relationship eventually.
Rene Courfeyrac
Look, Rene is Rene. He’s all over the place, all the time, over-involved in his friends’ lives, working hard and partying hard and being ridiculous. If your pup is in any kind of relationship and has told Rene anything about it, he has goaded said pup. A lot. If you pup has gone through anything terrible, he has been there to get them drunk and take them home. He’s also really working hard at City Hall, though he is increasingly realizing that he needs to go back to school to get anywhere professionally. It turns out half-finished 19th century law degrees and a lot of charm only get you so far in modern politics. He isn’t particularly pleased about this realization, but also practical enough to do what he has to do.
Thread ideas: Nothing specific, just hanging out with everyone he knows and being super nosy about their lives???
Athos
U G H Athos. Lucie was born shortly after Christmas, but Athos still isn’t really facing how much his life has changed. Instead, he has gone into full avoidance mode - he has been working a lot, riding a lot, drinking…a moderate amount. While he always has a pretty good excuse for being busy, he has been giving baby Lucie (and therefore Aramis and Porthos) a wide berth. And while he definitely has not been explicitly unfriendly with anyone, he’s been fairly closed off with everyone. He has been hunting a lot of vampires lately because stabbing vampires makes for excellent stress relief. WHAT DO I DO WITH THIS IDIOT.
Thread ideas: um, anyone who wants to come stab vampires with him is welcome. Maybe he needs to talk to people who are also Awkward About Babies And Modern Things, Too. Friends who will give him hugs despite how poorly he responds to hugs are always appreciated.
Okay, your turn. GIMME YOUR THREAD THOUGHTS.
