I'm interested to see if Lucia and Aaron go well together! If so, we could do long-term friendship plotting involving self-discovery and demon things.
They could meet in class, perhaps paired together in a lab or for some sort of project?

Lucia and Peregrine would be an interesting match-up, too! Lucia could meet Dot first, and possibly later become friends with Bird.
I'm not sure how they could meet; Lucia wouldn't visit the park in the cold. How about some sort of fashion/crafts store, or maybe a bakery/cafe?

As for Khlu, any kidnapping would probably involve being thrown into a cage and being poked/questioned. Typically no torture, but if the cages are made of iron that might accidentally harm the specimen.
An idea: Khlu could set up a typical cardboard box trap and one of your fae could approach--either to fall for the trap and get captured, after which a cage-and-question plot would ensue, OR to simply question his motives if you want to skip the kidnapping.

any input/other ideas?

Lucia
So. I have someone her age that could probably be in the same grade as her which is Hal who could actually put up with her overly-friendly personality. He needs more friends I swear. Also, they could job hunt together maybe? lol Although Hal much prefers finding jobs with steadier schedules or something.
On the other hand I have.... two half-demons she could probably meet, both of which are different experiences for Lucia. First off is Invidia who you could identify as a demon the moment you lay on eyes on her. Ironically, she isn't very happy about her having demon roots. She also kind of grew up with a mother who didn't really treat her well for, well, being a demon. This could get really awkward for the both of them but I think there's something about them connecting about trying to get over their mindset together?
Alternatively, there's Valentine. He doesn't really appear demonic, the first thing people assume him would be more of just half-snake or something. He's very open about his demon heritage, and he embraces it since he didn't actually grow up with the prejudice against demon (more of, prejudice against his "abnormalities") so he could give some insights about demons who aren't inherently evil.

Elias
If u need extroverts I got this guy for u. Raphael is one of my few extroverts; he's super talkative honestly; he'd barrage the poor guy with questions and talk like they only had ONCE CHANCE. But he's a decent friend if Elias won't find him annoying.
I also happen to have a mage open to getting apprentices? Tucker's pretty knowledgeable in a lot of disciplies of magic, maybe he could help him be a better wizard? hah

Mari
There's June? Popular people gotta stick together. Fair warning he's an energy vampire so haha
Additionally, Invidia might not like her :')

Parker
I CAN EXTEND THE JUNE PART HERE. He's super friendly but same warning. Most my students are college level but June's probably at the top of the list for her. Or if you do want to make her do weird things Ildefons could fill the part of not-very-friendly person when on campus :')

Minna
I don't have anything to offer but can Eleanor possibly stalk her if she gets a one way crush? :3c

Lucia could definitely break through Hal's cold exterior. She's also interested in fashion, although her style is a bit eccentric. They could work little jobs together if you're interested, but Lucia is also open to getting a part-time job. Job hunting is totally something they could do. Maybe they would meet in class or at school, or possibly in some sort of fabric store?

I'd like Lucia to meet Invidia and Valentine. The more demonic figures in her life, the better! I'm not sure where they could meet, but I think a DSU thread might be coming up soon, so we can always wait for that to happen. Unless you wanted to start a separate thread for either of them.

Raphael sounds like a perfect friend for Elias. Sure, he might be slightly annoying, but Elias will have to get used to it. They can talk about vidya games or something, maybe even meet in a gaming store or in a game online? It seems like your Raphael threads consist of him ambushing unsuspecting bystanders, so that's another possibility.

also yes Elias could use a mentor! If it's common knowledge that Tucker takes on students, Elias would probably approach him after school about it. Elias is reliant on a spellbook that contains the incantation needed to activate his telekinesis, so Tucker might be able to relate to that.

More manipulative popular people, yay! Is it fair enough to say that Mari and June probably hang around the same circles? A mutual friend could have introduced them, or they could meet during some sort of popular hangout with popular NPCs? lol

For Mari and Invidia, what sort of thing would annoy her? because Mari can pass out cupcakes with super annoying sayings for Valentine's Day on campus

Parker and June could meet before a lecture, as Parker sometimes sits in on random courses. He could approach her.

Parker and Ildefons can also meet in a lecture, and Parker could do something and gain his attention...Perhaps misunderstandings and other shenanigans would ensue!

Minna could wander into Eleanor's shop. Minna wouldn't pursue further relations, although she could become a frequent customer if the goods were of enough interest to her. Idk if Eleanor could develop a crush based on a single interaction with Minna, but then again Minna's aura might entice Eleanor? We should thread it out and see what happens.

Additionally, how would you feel about plotting between Mari and Ildefons? It seems like they're kind of similar--Keeping up sweet appearances, while really hiding a rotten personality inside.

let me know if you had any other ideas in mind, and thank you for so many plots!! :heart:

np :heart: you're characters are lovely and our characters seem to fit well with each other, the plot ideas just came in xD

Hal would be just as open to little jobs! Maybe they could do that along the way before they could land a part-time job they prefer. We could even make a montage-type thread out of it with them trying out different jobs, things going awry and moving onto the next, just for the laughs xD I like to think they're more likely to meet and hang out outside of class? Unless they get into a project of some sort, the fabric store might be a better option for them to meet and make a conversation. As for Hal's personal tastes in fashion, he leans for the casual-formal but he can appraise eccentric types without being too close-minded about the concept. They'll get along just fine, I believe!

The DSU thread is probably going to happen soon, though Invidia's not the type to actively participate unlike Valentine. But I do suppose she'd have to go considering Eroshay is part of the club. Maybe she and Valentine could interact outside of the club and bump into each other in the hallways? Would Lucia try to strike up a conversation with him with that? Valentine could get angry for "bumping into him" but he won't start a fight unless the other gets the same level of angry.

Raphael could ambush him in a game store and that would be most natural thing to happen with this guy lmao. Maybe they were both looking at the same game and Raphy could start a conversation about what games they like to play and whatnot? Probably invite him about playing games together at one point and such and nerd over a few games. Also I thought maybe Elias could be a good influence on Raphaels not-so-good study habits when they become friends!

I like to think some people talk about it enough for students to know about Tucker taking students under his wing. There's a chance that Elias might have overheard it from some few younger mages talking about who would be more fitting to be their mentor among the school's staff. He's free to approach Tucker anytime when he's in the school.

I can say June and Mari probably run around the same cirles; smart, sweet, and popular? Sounds like a combo to me. Honestly they sound like a deadly combo. They were probably introduced by mutual friends while they were all just chilling out? We could actually start off with that.

Invidia has a lot of things to be annoyed about Mari. One is that she appears pretty, and nice. She has an issue about objective beauty since she's super insecure about her demon appearance and all. So Mari's presence itself feeds the Envy demon in her lol. She'd be... very annoyed about the Valentines cupcakes mostly for something like "get this pretty face away from me AUGH"

June is very likely to approach her if she does sit on random courses--he likes to think he knows everyone in his class and would notice an out of place character the moment either of them enter the class; he'd strike up a conversation just from that.

If Parker tries to do anything weird in the background and Ildefons' notices no ones taking any notice, he would actually, but begrudingly approach her for her nonsense. Shenanigans could ensue.

Eleanor is an kind of a superficial person so if I have to be honest she could be attracted to her once, get curious which could possibly lead to an obsession. Eleanor isn't exactly immune to auras so there's quite a chance. We can try and thread to try and figure them out. If it wouldn't work I guess that would be alright too, I do need a few more people for Eleanor to be acquainted with.

As for Mari and Ildefons.... I'm actually interested in this and see how they could work. They could actually be rather close friends and keep each other's secret lives. Oh just, so you know about it, Foxy's currently making a character for him: an old friend from his days back in their kingdom for a planned ship. We could complicate things or just have these two be associated as... accomplices of sorts. Now the question is whether they run into each other with their real selves, or their masks. Or one of the other?

Mari & Freyja: Freyja is a Valkyrie, which is also technically an Angel, not to mention they are the same age. The whole 'dulled emotions' thing is relatively mutual, at least Freyja likes to think so. She probably fits the description of an enemy, given her not particularly approachable demeanour. Eventually if the enemy dynamic works out, she might come to respect or even like Mari, but yeah, she would be annoyed by her at first.

Parker & Freyja: If you would prefer, the same kind of thing goes for these two. If you're still looking for an 'Unfriendly person to gain the attention of' you got one. Again, same age and grade, and also again, she would start of being annoyed or at least indifferent to her.

ahhh thank you!! :bashfulcat: I love your characters. they're all so unique and interesting, and I'm glad ours are so compatible!

Oh my gosh that montage idea sounds like fun! We should keep it in mind for future threading. The only sort of project I could imagine them doing would be sewing/clothing design assignment in Home Ec, if Hal took that class. That sort of thing could get complicated, but in the fabric store, they could have more of a relaxed conversation. I think Hal's style might rub off on Lucia a bit, and they could give each other insight into the world of fashion, lol

Lucia is like Invidia, she'll push herself to go to the club but will probably be too scared to speak. If they ran into each other, Lucia would probably start a conversation with Valentine! They can walk together to their next class if they run into each other between classes, too. Lucia would stay level-headed and apologetic, so that might calm him down.

Yeah, that sounds pretty good for Elias and Raphael. Elias gets really enthusiastic about nerdy things and he would be super excited to game with Raphael. Down the line in their friendship Elias could even invite Raphael to study together and give him mini tutoring sessions.

After hearing about Tucker, Elias would come to his office and ask to become his apprentice. Is Tucker a high school or a college professor? If he teaches high schoolers, Elias might approach him after class, too.

June and Mari definitely sound like they're going to be a fun duo! Where would the popular kids be hanging out? I thought an ice cream parlor could be fun, but I'm not really sure. Maybe the mall?

Poor Invidia :( Do you think it would be best to set the thread in someplace where Invidia can’t easily walk away? Maybe in her college dorm complex?

That's perfect for June and Parker. What sort of classes might he be taking? Parker has a wide variety of interests. Of course, we don’t need to mention the lecture they’re attending, but it might give some flavor to their conversation in the thread.

Parker could cheekily mess with Ildefons, call up a windstorm or something. She might blow his papers around to get his attention, unless you wanted her to do something crazier?

In that case, the obsessive stalker plot could work out between Eleanor and Minna! Once Minna finds out, she's going to be pretty angry, but might try to manipulate Eleanor and use her as a pawn of sorts.

Currently, Mari doesn't have a separate persona, but that is going to change eventually. If she met Ildefons as Elric, it could even inspire her to assume a disguise to let loose when she wants. For now, I think it would be better for them to meet as their real selves. In this form they could become friends and maybe more than friends, depending on how their relationship progresses.

We could probably get some of these threads started whenever you're ready. Do you want me to write any starters rn?

Lucia and Aaron meeting in class sounds interesting. I'm thinking he might meet her after a couple of other people have been informing him he's at least partly demon, so he might be I thought I was human, but now a lot of people are saying I'm not. So he can be awkward about possibly not being human.

Dot can pretty much only eat seafood, so she probably wouldn't go to a cafe, but a fashion store sounds cool. She likes to wear dresses when Bird lets her, which isn't very often.

The cages being made of iron would be torture, but Minx's clothes would probably protect her from the worst of it. She'd still be a poor, sick, uncooperative fae who would be lying to her fullest extent... sounds fun. I love the cardboard box trap idea. Put some fried chicken in it and Minx would be all over it. And the kidnapping sounds great. I'd love to start with this. Minx needs more threads and is pretty much not busy with anything else. Taking Eek off the table for now.

Freyja and Mari could run into each other around campus. Mari would be able to detect her being a Valkyrie and would try to start a conversation about that, but if Freyja tried to walk away Mari would let her go.

Parker could do some weird stuff to get Freyja’s attention and possibly annoy her. They can meet in a lecture for magical studies, since that seems to be Freyja’s major. Parker could “show off” her powers by stirring up a windstorm before class.



@Boop

Lucia would not likely be open about her demonhood immediately, but they would probably find out about each other's’ species eventually.

Dot sounds like she has a very cute fashion style, similar to Lucia. Maybe they can reach for/look at the same dress and strike up a conversation about that.

I can write up a starter for Khlu and Minx if you want, although I won’t be able to post it today. It would probably start in the park and move to Khlu’s apartment after the capture.
