CR MEME #2

▶ MAKE FRIENDS, INFLUENCE PEOPLE



Welcome to our second CR Meme!

We have amended our original plans so that the CR meme will be posted every 2 months. As new players and characters arrive, they can hash out connections that came before their game play begins, as well as plot out new game play. Specifically, this could also be a good venue to find ship crews that are looking for new crew mates, and for prospective crew mates to find new ship crews.

Please fill out the form below for your character, and then comment around to other characters! Also be sure to check back as more people filter in.



For your reference, your previous CR meme is here.

▶ KITTY JONES

▼ OOC CONTACT
Your name: Hope
Contact: asyndeton @ gmail

▼ IC INFORMATION
Character name: Kitty Jones
Canon: The Bartimaeus series
Job/Role: Waitress :')

General Reputation: She doesn't have much of a reputation as of yet. She bounced back very quickly from being unplugged, physically and mentally, but she's a kid still, so that's not all that unusual. She took up work pretty much right away at a restaurant in Zion, and so that's how many people might have seen her: she's highly competent and friendly and quite charming, both willing to take and to give guff to her customers. However, she would have squirmed out of any attempts to get to know her better - e.g., hanging out outside of work, even learning anything about her background.

She also has been sniffing around the sim-stations, but has yet to go in yet; she wants to make sure it's not a trap. She's also been curious about learning more about crews, but any investigation she's done has been under a false name, in a wig, thanks very much.

Looking For: What I am looking for RIGHT NOW is:
1. General CR, naturally! Kitty is charming and confident and outgoing. At this point in time, she's too suspicious and nervous to really get to know anyone on a deep level, but I'd love to handwave or establish some superficial, light-hearted friendships.

2. Stuff that will lay down the groundwork for her direction in the future. Kitty, being Kitty, might end up going a few different ways: she might get suspicious of the Council and start digging into them and their actions; she might join a crew and work with unplugging people; she might train hard and return to her own world and use what she knows about the Matrix to overthrow her own government. People in positions of authority (ships' captains, people who are known to take part in extraction runs, anyone with political/council-granted authority) might find her lurking around them, either stalking their conversations on the network or actually having her follow them in person. I'd love to have her actually speak with them and build up relationships with them.

3. Mages!!! Kitty hates magic, HHHHHATES magic, and it will take her a while to understand that magic here isn't like magic in her home. She will get vicious and self-righteous towards mages so hard.

4. People with information about stuff. She wants to learn everything, she wants literally everything poured into her brain.

5. Extraction CR!!! Obviously, Kitty is pretty new to here, so just about anyone could have extracted her. She'd automatically be pretty fiercely loyal to whoever did that, so if any crews want a teenager who will stan for them from here to eternity we can work out the details.

Notes: She'll be going by a few different aliases! Never by Kitty Jones, because at home Kitty Jones is a wanted criminal and she's still suspicious that there aren't informants out here for her home Matrix. Her primary alias is Lizzie; that's what she's known as at the restaurant.

Hayyy I was so excited you were looking to go into the economic/civilian side of things! William could have gotten involved in her rehabilitation aboard the Shangrila if you like. He's kind of fabulous and very friendly. He wouldn't have been part of her extraction team, just rehab!

Horse eats like her namesake, so she's probably a patron-- especially if she gets a ZDG discount. Tony too, although he'd probably pay with services, repairing the equipment etc.

I would really, really like that! That'd actually work really well for me if he did on a character level - I could say that his confident friendliness could have helped inspire her to construct her own friendly/outgoing persona (since she would have been looking to blend in and act like a local, and he'd have been a great local to act like). So William can have been a mama duck on which this little floppy baby duck imprinted. :>

And I like the thought of the two of them being regulars! I headcanon the chef she works for as being someone who was a real Haute Cuisine Chef in the Matrix he was unplugged from, so I think Tony might be occasionally called on to try to replicate some of the old equipment the chef misses from his home reality - e.g., a sous vide machine. In spite of the fact that it's just being used to cook, like, meat-flavored protein patties. So Tony could possibly earn his meals by coming up with new cooking gadgets?

(also Kitty would be so impressed/delighted by Horse's appetite and would bring her everything)

HAHA Ah. Hi, I'm Lynn, I play a friendly, light-hearted ....mage. Hawke does not exactly go around vocally like 'I really miss being able to kill things with ice,' but he is, as per previous sentence, ideal for superficial light-hearted friendship and he's newish (like three months newish) so idk, is 'they can be frands and later that can come up' like, too much 'hi I'm here to bring you drama'? I'm really easy either way.

I'll just leave that sentence like it is.

[personal profile] rathercommon 2015-05-11 12:33 am (UTC)(link)
well you're in luck because i like em easy




but OH MY GOD yes I am SO SO SO down for that. Actually, I think they're precisely the same degree of newish - we could have them having gone through a bit of rehab together, if you would be up for that, too! So they could have a friendship based on overcoming being floppy noodle babies and struggling to stagger around in a coordinated fashion at the same time...which can get blown up once they actually start talking about their home lives. HOW DARE YOU HAVE A HISTORY, YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE.

Yesss I would love that! Hawke is ...so used to be 110% competent, so bonding with anyone who was also like, filled with acupuncture needles at the same time is definitely someone he'd get invested in quipping at with a side of 'but actually watching gently to make sure she's settling in okay.'

...HE'S SORRY ABOUT HAVING A HISTORY but then like--as a notable side element he also does have a really close friend actually in game who has a completely different but equally awful relationship to magic, so um. At least he has dealing with that as a precedent? Basically he makes friends like a terrier. So THERE'S THAT, his caring about people is sort of. Unshakable.

That is so perfect :> precious cinnamon bun

And yeah! I expect they'll go through a little bit of turmoil, but most likely Kitty's fondness for Hawke will actually win out over her anti-magic anger and so it'll help her come around to being less ragey. He'll help her grow as a person! Especially since he's such a sweet little terrier.

Ahhhhhhhhh friendship hardened by turmoil is my favorite kind, I'm so excited about this. Her perspective will be good for him too because he's so used to coming from 'fine, but I've never personally eaten anyone,' so yes. Delicious personal growth!!

I'm on semi-hiatus right now but when I get back I'm going to make him a log with various starters for people, so if you want Kitty to be folded in there I would be delighted?

UNRELATED EDIT I love your PB choice so much, starry eyes *_*

hello i'm here for kitty cr. jack is a political aide for aries and would be intrigued and/or entertained by her nosiness at least to a point.

also if kitty would be interested in prodding a formerly brainwashed assassin into learning to appreciate decent food again i feel like her and bucky could be cute too, potentially. double your sebstan face.
rathercommon: (delighted)

[personal profile] rathercommon 2015-06-11 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
Yesss yes yes yes! Yes to both of these things, I am so down with this Stanface. Would there be any possibility that either/both of them would come into her cafe? That would be a good starting point - though, honestly, given Jack's position, she would also pretty happily stalk him.
