Oh hey

never planned together? planned before? met in a hallway once? spent six years serving in 'nam together? idk i'm afraid if i open tapatalk again they'll come to my house and give me a wedgie for betraying them so like let's do it again folks

I exist again and so do some children who actually have profiles so I'm like kind of committed to them instead of staring at them in the void and wondering if they should exist or not as a commentary on my spiraling depression

I mean what

Anyway here's wonderwall

1. Hel Fury(Approved). They're neat. They like witchcraft and videogames and weed and being in a sort of band. Mostly just looking for friends and antagonists but maybe we got our licenses the same week and we went out joyriding and we thought we hit a deer we're like 90% sure it was a deer but it could have been a bike and we've never talked about it but we're sworn to secrecy that could be cool let's talk about it okay thanks cya later

2. Blaise d'Aramitz(Approved). French! Gay! Terrible! Very Sad and distracting themselves from ennui with consumption and the emotional devastation of others! Fashionable! Did you fuck? Did they fuck your partner? Your dad? Your mom? Who knows? You knows. Help me knows. I've lost all control over my devil child. Also like there's some magic tricks and gambling so if that's your thing more than the crippling emotional issues or whoring hit me up.

3. Jeremiah Anderson(Approved). He big. He gray. He think words are dumb. His profile is way too fucking long and I'm sorry but I'm also not. He could use some friends. Maybe a super disastrous ex. Some music peeps. Basketball pals. A way to understand that the abuse he experienced isn't his fault and that his impulses to continue the cycle are a natural traumatic response that don't necessarily make him a bad person if he doesn't act on them. The basics.

4. Nona Hart(Approved). whoa what what the fuck where did you come from who did that i did that oh okay cool. i made her terrified of interacting with people and then forced her into a context where the only way to exist is to interact with people because i'm a bad parent like that. please take advantage of her good nature so her profile isn't a fucking lie thank you. you like coffee? nona likes coffee she'll tell you things about coffee you never possibly could have wanted to know and also she'll probably write papers for you and stuff if you're nice to her please be nice to her while you're adding to her overloaded schedule thanks

children

formatting and stuff will be done Sometime(TM)

Some say that we have history.

For your two kids that don't quite exist yet, Andy is on the basketball team with Jeremiah, and Siyanda is also way too busy and too into coffee just like Nona. Let's see what we can do.

henlo yes relationships pls

Hel - I think Abel would be on good terms with them, at least through the Andy connection. I don't think they'd be in the Best Friends Club but would be chill with each other probably. I'm thinking friendly acquaintances that wouldn't be super embarrassing to run into at a Walmart at 10pm on a weekday.

Louie is a bit of a weenie but I think he'd be down to be friends with Hel as well. Possibly even as an accessory to the alleged probably-deer hit and run. I'm open for anything.

Blaise - Abel would hate them and go out of his way to avoid them. So take that for what you will!

I also don't think Desiree would be much of a fan either, and possibly vice versa for Blaise as well. I think she'd keep up what little pleasantries she could give though since Parker is a mutual with both of them.

blue boi- Same case as with Hel, I think Louie would be a kind friend or at least could be a source of empathy as both of them have fun backgrounds with super awesome dads.

Nona - I think Desiree would actually find Nona pretty cool but would be too afraid to engage, so it's more like they're friends in her head.

Katelynne tends to dominate conversations and finds any way to bring the topic onto herself or about horses, which means she would probably be a great friend for Nona especially if she doesn't mind getting a modded Safer∙Sephiroth Furby as a birthday present.

hell yes hell yes hell yes the legend of jerry pissrock and coriander rides again

Yeah I feel like Nona is high key terrified of Siyanda but also ze controls the library and she's all about those so she's kinda gotta get over it and they have a lot to bond over what with being constantly reanimated from the void by caffeine
Hel - I think Abel would be on good terms with them, at least through the Andy connection. I don't think they'd be in the Best Friends Club but would be chill with each other probably.

there's p o t e n t i a l between Hel and Abel because 1) they rhyme 2) andy 3) they all about that bass bout that bass bout that bass so they can jam together, i'm here for it

i was committing hard to the bit but i'm genuinely intrigued by these two carrying the secret of their probably deer maybe vehicular homicide late night adventure around step into my office and let's plan this memory thread
Blaise - Abel would hate them and go out of his way to avoid them. So take that for what you will!

I also don't think Desiree would be much of a fan either, and possibly vice versa for Blaise as well. I think she'd keep up what little pleasantries she could give though since Parker is a mutual with both of them.
mmm num num num feed me your hate duly noted
blue boi- Same case as with Hel, I think Louie would be a kind friend or at least could be a source of empathy as both of them have fun backgrounds with super awesome dads.
super awesome dad club go our secret handshake is never touching because we never learned how to healthily express physical emotion
Nona - I think Desiree would actually find Nona pretty cool but would be too afraid to engage, so it's more like they're friends in her head.

head friends are the best friends because they can never be disappointed with you except when they are and you can't escape it because anxiety is like a big warm blanket made of needles dope dope dope! but i could see that, maybe they've worked on a project or something together at some point and have gotten to that coveted level of friendship where they say hi in the hallway and only wanna panic vomit after for like 15 minutes instead of all day

Katelynne seems like exactly the sort of person nona would yes-girl for for safety and horses are kinda neat she could learn weird horse facts so her new friend doesn't abandon her to the hungry coyotes

It's been 84 years since we have thrown kids at each other

Beyond broad strokes ideas (Princess is on vaguely good terms with most of your characters where it makes sense, Camila doesn't know any of them and vice versa) I had a few specific ideas for more interesting and involved concepts:

Beryl - Jeremiah: We get the concept going, where like, through the common connection of Nia (who Beryl definitely knows at least kind of well even if I have yet to formalize that on the planner b/c lazy) they were introduced in high school. Beryl would pickup B-ball with our main boy up until she had to quit the field, and she'd follow him on nature trips and stuff. Maybe she taught him some of the skills he picked up out there? Like, she's good at being passively supportive and non-judgmental and she's not the sort to project that she has issues or complain so she'd be non-threatening to that aspect of his tendencies. As in, like, overall I think they'd get along fairly well, he'd at least be slightly more willing to get along with her than your average person.

There's island potential too, since I think their weaknesses would be mutually destructive so like, we should establish some commonality now that we could possibly use later.

Princess - Nona: These peeps met in the AP English and eventually developed commonality over their mutual writing interests. Princess is internally not the most impressed with Nona's artistic sensibilities (fanfic was a mistake) but she offered to beta read at least once and is now regularly willing to pretend she's interested. They're at least close enough that Princess can sometime helps Nona get out of doing stupid party stuff she doesn't want to do by dragging her away to some other more quiet local to do character studies or outlines or something. Writing buddies, essentially, wherein Nona is held at some distance by Princess' own tendencies but at the very least Princess doesn't take advantage of her and there's mutual respect (kind of).

I confess I don't really have any ideas other than that Connor probably knows of Jeremiah through the whole athletics thing, and probably gives him a wide berth because he doesn't say much and he looks odd. Probably just keeps his distance because he's one of the few people who's got size on him and Wyatt.

Otherwise, Heath Slater, I have nothing for ya. Not even a Rhyno.

Oh look, another opportunity to fulfill my blood oath to interact with as many of you as I can.

I imagine that Julien would likely have at least interacted with Blaise due to poker or something along those lines. He pays his debts, if he happens to accrue any, within reason so little issue there. Both have French heritage too.

He may know of Hel in passing due to Axel as well, but I can think of no more than that.

That's all that comes to mind, at least for the time being.

So I have a few ideas!

Hel - Lorenzo probably knows them through Axel and Andy. I'm not sure how well they get along, but I'd assume they're friendly. Amelia could be friends with them too since they're both into witchy stuff.

Blaise - Lorenzo and Blaise could bond over their shared disdain towards Myles. They also seem to have similar surface-level friendships with others, so I could see them getting along for the most part.

Jeremiah - Jackson hangs out with a lot of the other athletes in school so he probably knows Jeremiah. They could be friend or just friendly acquaintances. Also Amelia is convinced he's an alien because he's tall and grey.

Nona - Regina would be kind to her, for sure. Amelia would probably enjoy being friends with her as well.

Idk, these are just off the top of my head! If you have any other ideas we can discuss and work some stuff out! :D

oh no I committed these children to existence and now I have to follow through they will all be so disappointed in my hubris
Beryl - Jeremiah: We get the concept going, where like, through the common connection of Nia (who Beryl definitely knows at least kind of well even if I have yet to formalize that on the planner b/c lazy) they were introduced in high school. Beryl would pickup B-ball with our main boy up until she had to quit the field, and she'd follow him on nature trips and stuff. Maybe she taught him some of the skills he picked up out there?

There's island potential too, since I think their weaknesses would be mutually destructive so like, we should establish some commonality now that we could possibly use later.
i'm so here for all of this, I think they could get along pretty well and Jeremiah could use more people on his nature trips so his not-mom will be less worried about him. Would she be open to learning any ASL from him?
Princess - Nona: These peeps met in the AP English and eventually developed commonality over their mutual writing interests. Princess is internally not the most impressed with Nona's artistic sensibilities (fanfic was a mistake) but she offered to beta read at least once and is now regularly willing to pretend she's interested. They're at least close enough that Princess can sometime helps Nona get out of doing stupid party stuff she doesn't want to do by dragging her away to some other more quiet local to do character studies or outlines or something. Writing buddies, essentially, wherein Nona is held at some distance by Princess' own tendencies but at the very least Princess doesn't take advantage of her and there's mutual respect (kind of).
Nona will take any rescue she can get from party things that doesn't make her feel like a guilty bad friend even if it means getting her fanfic critiqued. I think she respects Princess more than Princess respects her but that dynamic probably isn't as awful as it usually is for her so hey progress
I confess I don't really have any ideas other than that Connor probably knows of Jeremiah through the whole athletics thing, and probably gives him a wide berth because he doesn't say much and he looks odd. Probably just keeps his distance because he's one of the few people who's got size on him and Wyatt.

cool cool that's about where jeremiah stands in general so he'll just have to spear connor on the island at some point no biggity
I imagine that Julien would likely have at least interacted with Blaise due to poker or something along those lines. He pays his debts, if he happens to accrue any, within reason so little issue there. Both have French heritage too.

He may know of Hel in passing due to Axel as well, but I can think of no more than that.
That works, good players who pay their debts are basically the only thing blaise values in this world so they probably have a soft spot for him. How well does Julien speak French? if he's even passable they probably snark at him about other players or go on very serious sounding nonsense tangents to get in other people's heads.

Hel likes people who like Axel. Might even have some game overlap, I didn't catch any specific mentions of what he plays in his profile but they might share some. also notice he's a dresden files fan and hel is def a huge dresden files stan, if he likes tabletop RPGs at all they've probably invited him to play in a dresdenverse campaign at some point.
Hel - Lorenzo probably knows them through Axel and Andy. I'm not sure how well they get along, but I'd assume they're friendly. Amelia could be friends with them too since they're both into witchy stuff.
Hel is probably really fond of Amelia and would love to get to know her better if they're not already decent friends. They have v different takes on witch culture since Amelia seems to be a lot more formal and steeped in Wicca tradition while Hel's a wild chaos magic child screaming power and intent into the void but that'd be fun to explore! Lorenzo gives them Bad Vibes, they wanna like him and are probably nice enough to his face but he does not sit right in their brain so I doubt they'd go out of their way to be friends.
Blaise - Lorenzo and Blaise could bond over their shared disdain towards Myles. They also seem to have similar surface-level friendships with others, so I could see them getting along for the most part.
Blaise on the other hand fucking adores Lorenzo, he's everything they're about. Given their respective natures I doubt they're super tight or anything but they're happy to see him and would probably make him things if he wanted.
Jeremiah - Jackson hangs out with a lot of the other athletes in school so he probably knows Jeremiah. They could be friend or just friendly acquaintances. Also Amelia is convinced he's an alien because he's tall and grey.
Oh hey anger issues and binge drinking when did jeremiah's dad start going to this school??? If I'm reading the profile right this is a recent blow-up so I've got a pitch for you: Jeremiah and Jackson were decently friendly up until senior year, and when his drinking started becoming more public Jeremiah hard ghosted him. Where they go from there is kinda up to you because Jeremiah would avoid him as much as possible from there on but i think there's some juicy possibilities there

Man I dunno how we get there but I think Jeremiah low key has...idk if you can call it a crush because he doesn't really do crushes but a Feeling that is as close to attraction as he's comfortable getting about about people right now? if they could find a way to connect i think he'd end up pretty fascinated by her takes on spirituality/the universe/etc. He wouldn't have much to contribute but listening to her would be nice.
Nona - Regina would be kind to her, for sure. Amelia would probably enjoy being friends with her as well.
nona would like regina a lot! they could be casual friends or closer. She might get along with Amelia but i think they might be on the wrong brands; nona doesn't go in for the supernatural much outside of using it for neat music stuff and i think she'd be kinda weirded out by Amelia taking Wicca seriously. But I dunno, that might be a fun conversation for them to have had!

Julien does speak French, yes, and fairly well at that. And he does like tabletop RPGs, so an invitation would hardly be turned down.
