[OOC] The Resistance [High-Casual] (Superhuman RP)

[dreamingflowers]

I finished my impressions and it was way more difficult than I expected XD
So I ended up spending more time on it than I had thought. That's okay though, @everyone, let me know if you'd like something changed/added/removed. I hope I'm not 100% off 0.0

”First Impressions” of Katerine

Jacques Perrot
Jacques well, when he's around I get kind of nervous. He can get angry really quick and he has no tact to speak of. Maybe I'm being oversensitive here but sometimes he's more animal than human. When we do speak I'm careful with my words. I don't tell him half the things I see when I read for him because he'll probably get pissed off. To be honest I don't know how Ruben puts up with him.

Ruben Perrot
Ruben is the complete opposite of Jacques and maybe that's why I like him better. I can tell he genuinely tries to be nice and I appreciate that. I'm at ease when he's around and that's not easy for me, so go figure. I don't know much of either brother's backstory but I've always wanted to know what happened to Ruben's leg.

Mahmud
He is extremely nice almost to the point where I would have thought he was acting, but he is really like that. I remember when we first met, neither of us started the conversation but somehow we started talking. We spoke about nothing in particular and like many of the members of the Resistance I don't know him that well. I do know that if I don't pay attention he's very easy to miss but now that I think of it that could just be his power.

Piper Hannah
We've met once and I felt self conscious right away, it's not that I have no confidence at all but next to her it barely exists. I don't blame her though because that's just me. Actually I admire how she can be so confident. I can tell she's not afraid to die and while she doesn't have an outright deathwish, she's waiting for it. I wanted to talk to her about it, to see what she has to say. There are more people counting on her than she realizes.

Wendy Wang
Wendy well she's too nice for her own good and I suspect she gives way more than she receives. Altough she does have ten years on me so I won't say anything about it, it's not my place. I think her power is incredible and I can't help but think what would have happened to my mother had I known Wendy before. She may have been able to help her, but I'll never know that for sure.

Naomi Mendez
Naomi is really clever and most people, including me may not have suspected that. She is loyal to her family and spends most of her time with them, so I haven't seen or talked to her a whole lot. I would probably do the same if my family was part of the Resistence.

Jeff
I know him best out of all the members of the Resistance. Despite that I have a hard time figuring him out. He stands up for others despite being introverted and I want to know how he does that. It is as if his need to protect other people makes him forgot all about it. I could really learn from him.

Phoebe Evans
She is still in her teens and I see a lot of myself in her. I feel she looks and acts more happy than she is. I don't know her backstory but she must have been through some traumatic stuff. It still floats around her aura like a thick gloomy cloud. I've seen it bring her down and I want to help her but I don't know how.

Kayin Okoro
Kayin is someone who I would have been afraid of but I've been through some though times when I was taking care of my mother. The drugs she had to take changed her personality too and Kayin reminds me of that. I know she didn't ask for it and I feel sorry for her more than anything. She rarely seems to find rest and while I'm not a therapist I'd like to think I can help her, with what I've been taught.

[DJAtomika]

I guess I better get working on this relations thing huh.

[twave]

Apparently I have made a rather distant but interesting character.

[Blue Demon]

Well, I thought about getting "first impressions" up here. But all of a sudden all my RPs started going on at once!

So... I'm working on it. Along with an IC post. (But I don't know when they'll see the light of day)

Edit: Scratch that. Got one thing done. :D

Piper's First Impressions

Jacques "Jack" Perrot
Jack's kind of a simple person. I don't really trust him. Well, I trust him to do what's best for him. Not for me. He seems like a good guy, but he endangers all that I've helped build. And that takes precedence over a lot of things. Though if he keeps away it's all good in my book.

Ruben "Legs" Perrot
When I first meet Ruben I though he was mute. I helped gather a few parts for his leg. But other than that I don't really know him. I think he prefers it that way.

Ilyaas Mahmud Al-Shabaab
Mahmud's a good guy. Even though I keep trying to call him Muhammad. I've done it a few times and it's made me feel super racist. It's because of Mahmud that the Resistance and I have formed a working relationship, even though I still remain apart.

Wendy Wang
Wendy is a naive. And I should know. We both try to see the best in people. Though she worries too much about offending other people. Which is weird because she's older than me. Which I tend to forget and sometimes start thinking of her as younger. I do hope I don't come off as condescendingly arrogant.

Naomi Mendez
The first thing I noticed about Naomi was her eyes. I even objected to her joining, though in the end I let her. However, I still keep an eye on her. She's hiding something. And I wont let my guard down until I know what it is.

Jeff
Jeff, or Silver Wolf (Which is a ridiculous name), is a patronizing ***. Just because I have no fancy powers he thinks I cannot defend myself. The guy really needs to learn to see the world in other hues than black and white. Just because I cannot throw down doesn't mean I can't take care of myself.

Katerina Sapienti
Kat's like a sister I never had. She just makes me want to hide her from the world. Which is kind of distracting. At least when I look at her I know she has people who care for her and she wont turn out like me.

Phoebe Evans
Phoebe is an odd ball. I see her watching me, but we've never talked. The young girl always just watches. In some ways, it's kind of creepy. I know lots of shy people. Around this city you never know who's a mutant and who's not. But I also know curiosity. One day she'll talk to me. Just not yet.

Kayin Okoro
If Kayin wasn't a teen, I would call her an absent minded professor. I've never talked to her, but something tragic lays behind her eyes. I cannot help but wonder who scarred her and why.

[Girlie Go Boom]

@The Mad Hatter

Right. Updated muh charrie sheet. Sooooooo like please let me knows what needs changing, k?

[The Mad Hatter]

@Bunnita
Boo is all right now.
She's accepted.
I'll get right on making J&R's "first impressions" of her.

I'm considering whether I should write another IC post, or wait till everyone has posted once... I'm not gonna keep having as much time as I have these days (Thursday (today) is Feast of Ascension, which is a holiday that we actually get off in Denmark and because we're such a lazy people, we just take Friday off as well), so it'd make sense to try and build a foundation for my characters while I can...
I'm going to the Fair, though, so it'll be a couple of hours till I have the time to write, anyways, and I have no clue how long it's going to take me to write, so maybe there's time for people to post anyways and I'm worrying over nothing.

As for the actual IC posts... I was originally not planning that everyone should have a room of their own, but since I didn't specify on that, it's my own fault.
I imagined it being like;

Well, people are allowed to live elsewhere and it's not like everyone has a room of their own (since it's a sewer and there's only so many rooms), so I imagine that most of them have their own little "camps". Like, for example, Kayin, Wendy, Kat and Phoebe might share one room, but they each have their own corner with a tent (or something) so that they still have their privacy. Jacques and Ruben share a "camp", so they'd have one tent (or something) and only count as "one person". Naomi and her family are sufficently large that they might have a room of their own, so they might or might not have tents of their own, or simply share the entire room as one big "camp".

But if you don't want that, then that's just fine. Like I said, it's my own fault for not specifying.

.:EDIT:.
It'd still be all right for Wendy to have her clinic, though. That one makes perfect sense.

[ayzrules]

@The Mad Hatter I'm cool with the 'camp' thing, I can go edit my post if you want

@The Mad Hatter

Since Piper doesn't live in the HQ (and probably doesn't go there yet), you can post before I get my first one up (since I don't know when I can eek out some time currently).

And I guess I'll add to my to do list to update Piper's first impressions to include Boo.

[XLegs]

@The Mad Hatter
Sounds good to me. I actually thought to ask about where everyone sleeps, but, well... didn't.

[twave]

Naomi and her family would probably be more off to themselves. The culture reaches beyond just immidiate family. Cousines, second cousines, grandparents, stuff like that. The ones that are left though are non super though so they would probably stay topside so as not to draw attention underground. They would actually be coming down to visit or pass messages along through Naomi.

And since Naomi is currently focused on the Fixers she might try to avoid letting people know about her powers, probably sticking with them.

[breathing_towers_to_hell]

Since Piper doesn't live in the HQ (and probably doesn't go there yet), you can post before I get my first one up (since I don't know when I can eek out some time currently).

I second that. It'd probably be best to have it set in stone where everyone sleeps and then if someone's unhappy they can get it changed before posting.

[The Mad Hatter]

All right, so we'll make some sleeping arrangements.

Jacques and Ruben stay together, of course. I can't imagine that there's a lot of people who actually want to stay with them, actually. With Jacques' temper and lack of modesty (having to get naked to change forms and not bothering to put clothes back on after changing back) as well as the fact that he's gay (though this would probably not be a problem to most in itself, without his lack of modesty, respect for personal space and so on). Ruben would probably not be a problem to most, but since it's a package deal, they'd likely get to have a room of their own simply because others would rather be cramped than bunk with Jacques.
Did I get that right?

Since Jeff and Mahmud are the only other dudes, and I think it would be (thought) inappropriate for dudes and dames to share bedrooms, they'd probably be on their own. They might have some NPC roommates or something, if you want, or they could stay with Jacques and Ruben.

Piper and Naomi both stay in on-surface housing, so they wont have an underground "camp".

Wendy might, if you want, have a single room that is attatched to the clinic, since she might get clients/patients at any time of the day. It'd probably be the most efficient.

The rest of the cast are single ladies (Kat, Phoebe, Kayin and Bree), so they could all live together in one room.

Is this all right with everyone?

[Blue Demon]

Is this all right with everyone?

The Mad Hatter

I'm cool with that.

[Tip]

Still accepting?

[twave]

@The Mad Hatter
I'm good with that too. Naomi would have to be careful with her movements though since the bots can scan her for the gene.

[The Mad Hatter]

@Tip
Well, the deadline was yesterda, but since we haven't really started yet, you can make a sheet if you're quick about it

@t2wave
She could have an emergency bunk set up, if you wish :-)

[twave]

@The Mad Hatter
Yup, she probably would since things can hit the fan and need a quick switch to underground life.

[XLegs]

@The Mad Hatter
Works for me, I'll make a quick edit to my post.

[breathing_towers_to_hell]

I'm cool with it too.

[Shanks]

@The Mad Hatter
I'm cool with that. In fact I was pretty much going to have Jeff sleeping in a little alcove off the main entrance since he feels like it's his responsibility to stand between the Technopath and HQ's inhabitants.

Edit: also I was gonna say, I'm cool with you making another post. I actually attempted to post this morning, but my phone glitches and lost my post and I got discouraged so I will post tomorrow or something.
