I am here to voice my interest for sure!

Can I please confirm the following character?

Named: Devin Coal
Trust Fund
Male
Color = FFF79A
Face Claim - David John Franco

“WIth the UN based in New York, the company I work for has several contracts that take me to New York City throughout the year.” He said after a moment of letting Savannah enjoy the view. “The city is one of a kind, I can tell you that. Some can make it and some can try, but no matter what the city does to you it makes an impression.” Devin said this while thinking of his last few trips. Some good memories and some painful.

“Anyways we should get a picture for your family. Let everyone know back home who made it.” Devin then took his phone out and took a slightly candid picture of Savannah looking up at her name on display in Time Square. It was a good photo and Devin was happy with it so he started to put his phone away. He stopped when a person dressed as Spider-Man walked up and offered to take a picture of the two of them.

Now normally Devin would have politely said no; however, he had a rule when it came to the TIme Square photo workers. He knew a guy in college that had to do it when he first moved to the Big Apple and after hearing the stories and hell they had to go through every day to make the scratch that they walk home with he had discovered a newfound respect for them. “Sure, but after that we are taking pictures with you.” He said as he walked over to Savannah and they took a picture together.

WIthin a few seconds afterwards the photo got much bigger. Spider-Man waved over A Transformer, two Pokemon, the rest of The Avengers and several members of the Justice League. In all the photo included Savannah, Devin, and over 12 other people. So big was the photo that other people started to take pictures of their group and even walked around so as to not block the photo.

Once the moment was done Devin took his camera back and fished around in his wallet. Finding a few bills he grabbed what must have been around 60 dollars in twenties and handed them to the person dressed as Spider-Man. “Have a slice and drink on me man.” He said and the gesture earned him a high five from the man who headed off to split the pay with the rest of the group.

Devin turned back to Savannah and smiled “Well that was fun. I think we better head over to the Garden for your sound check.” The task ahead of them was only a little over a half a mile so they quickly made their way out of Time Square and towards the concert venue.
Hello fellow Role Play Fans,

I recently had the idea of maybe playing a character who works as a city crime beat reporter who accidentally witnesses a mob hit and wrote about it. He is then put under police protection, but is demanding to return to his job which means he is assigned police protection. In my mind they would know each other and have crossed verbal swords in the past (MAYBE even have a slight romantic back story as well). I haven't really flushed everything out, but I wanted to maybe give a switch to the whole man protect woman troupe we see in some role plays. Don't get me wrong I am in one of those and liking it a TON, but who doesn't want to be saved by a kick ass woman too!

Thoughts and ideas are absolutely welcomed!
“It's a deal.” Devin said in response to Savannah’s insistence on paying for the next dinner or meal they collected for. He shouted a thank you to the restaurant which responded in kind and they left the small slice of China behind them as they returned to the crazy buzz of the city streets.

While walking towards Madison Square Garden the two were only a few blocks away from Time Square. Devin figured it might be nice to take a slight detour and show Savannah the most famous and one of the busiest intersections in the world. “Come on follow me.” He said as he got the fleeting idea as a crosswalk was starting to count down from 5 seconds. They rushed across and even earned a classic taxi cab honk as they hadn’t cleared the road when the lights changed.

Walking along and following all the tourists with their cameras out The crowd started to get denser and denser. “Stay close.” Devin said as they weaved their way past a few cartoon characters and famous movie cosplayers. Finally they broke out of the sidewalk masses and crossed the street to sit in the center of Time Square.

It may have been only 6 PM on Friday, but you would have thought it was the middle of the weekend with the crowds. Some making their way to see the signs and sights like Devin and Savannah while others were on their way to a stage production on Broadway. A few women in some exceptionally fun night club outfits passed and caught Devin’s eyes as well.

“One of the only places where you can stand anywhere and feel like you are in the middle of it all when you look up.” He said as he did so and saw all the different signs. Models on their newest makeup campaigns plastered one side while different shows like Lion King and Harry Potter were on the other. A few TV shows had some space and then up above the fray was a big neon sign and for a moment he caught something Savannah might like.

“You may not be headlining but your name is on New York City…” He said pointing up to a sign that showed the Twins with a smaller side picture of Savanna with an opening tag next to her name. “That is pretty cool.” Devin said softly. More to his own inner thoughts than to a specific intent.

Devin gave a happy smile and wave to Harper that quickly dissipated when Mia shot him a look. Though it had now been months the previous lover was still feeling jaded for possibly obvious reasons. Still Devin was sure it would finally blow over at some point so he figured it best to be left alone. As quick as they could Dan and Devin got their things together and began to pack up to take their lunch with Harper.

They all met down at the building entrance. Devin had decided they would hit up one of his favorite Thai restaurants which he hadn’t been to in over a month. The hankering for some drunken noodles was strong in his tummy and the only way to squash it was by pleasing the food gods with sacrifice.

Walking with his arm over Harpers shoulders and Dan to his right Devin had the trio walking in a wonderful New York City spring day. The weather was perfect for his light suit and tie look with the rest of the group equally happy with the ambient temperature. Cutting through a small square with a park Devin couldn’t help but just say “I love this city…”

“Course it is the underbelly that really has character. How is organized crimes and vice working out for you Harper?” Devin said.
The light meal paired well with the company and seemed to relax both the singer and her protector. They swapped stories about their lives. Some about first jobs (Devin was a lifeguard at a summer camp.) Others about more recent struggles (Devin having to explain to a millionaire that cocaine was infact still illegal), and more about his family and time in the Navy.

Soon enough the food they ordered arrived hot out of the kitchen and their conversations continued. Devin felt at ease with Savannah. The southern charm worked with her both personally and physically. He felt that comment was unprofessional but he was only human and happily acknowledged it. Not like he would act on it or something of that ilk.

As they finished up dinner the check came by and Devin scooped it up before his dinner date had a chance to reach. He had every intention of expensing the meal so he saw no harm in the act. It was close to time they left too so he didn't want to deal with the dance if who would pay.
"I live in DC, but my job makes me travel most of the year" Devin said while the older woman came over and put a menu in front of both of them. Since this was a regular place for Devin when he was in town he didn't much bother with looking at the menu and ordered some small soups for a starter.

"My parents are bored out of their minds now that they are retired and my sister is dating a complete tool but he is too scared of her to act out so it works pretty well for a college romance." Devin smiled at the speed and smell of the soup as they were brought out.

"That is why I originally accepted this contract." Continuing from where he left off before and adjusting his jacket before finally taking it off. His simple v neck shirt now plenty fine as they were inside. "Your first 3 shows start in NYC and lead right to DC before you head down to Florida."

Devin personally hated muggy weather and the thought of Florida as a destination didn't sit well with him; however the money for this was good and since his regular job was hitting it's slow season he realized Eric basically had caught him in the mouse trap with Savannah's tour being the cheese.

Devin was sitting on cloud nine this morning as he walked into the precinct with his brand new motorcycle helmet. After a few years of going back and forth he had finally decided it was time to get back into the motorcycle game. A few sales stops later and he was riding to work in a Triumph Bonneville he bought from a collector.

Savannah, was a thing of true beauty and even though he had only had her for the past two days Devin loved the bike more than any other inanimate object in his life including his gun and badge. He tossed his helmet in his locker and quickly took a shower before changing into his suit and tie.

The last few cases he and Dan had worked on were starting to pick up and get close to trial and he had to attend a few depositions later today. Rules are you either wear your uniform or suit and tie and Devin was starting to enjoy dressing up a little more than he used to. Still loves his hoodie and jeans look so it wasn’t a concern for most just yet.

He entered the bullpen to see Dan at Harpers desk and his on loan partner chatting. He had guessed that Harper was going to be in today as it was on his calendar that she had her drug test. He walked up to the two of them and held out a box of donuts. “Who wants to be a stereotype this morning?” He said with a smile.

The mess that was formerly known as Harper’s immaculately kept desk had been an eye sore for Devin. Normally the only things that cluttered up her desk was his paperwork, but now that he was dealing with someone who was even messier than him he had realized it was up to him to keep things organized. The battle had been faltering as they more than once misplaced a casefile.

He put his hand on the small of Harpers back and gave her a sideways hug that was both minor but intimate. Since it was widely known the two had kept it mostly professional at the office with the rush of the possibility of getting caught losing some of the luster. Since Jordan’s advice and they went on actual dates things had been moving along well and he felt comfortable with things.

“Your monthly dose of pain deserves something presented to the altar.” Devin said motioning to the sugar pastries and Harpers date with the needle vixen. “I still think it is sort of bogus that Jordan can’t do it just because of the chain of evidence.” He mused as they quickly as he had moved away from the topic of his ex.

“We have to be at the courthouse in an hour… Want to meet over at gang task force for lunch?” Dan asked the two after looking at his watch and figuring out the traffic.

More often than not Devin is likely one who is given a specific task as the team knows he will complete it; however, they also aren't fans of working directly with him due to his high expectations.
