state of the characters!

In an effort to keep similar things together, I've moved our state of the characters post to the therapy comm since we do an IC version of this every once in awhile and I thought keeping the OOC version here might make more sense. Of course, the therapy comm will remain your haven for all those therapeutic posts you need to make, this is just me moving this particular update here since it's not really a meme but it's not really IC either. All memes will still take place in the OOC comm, of course!

Anyway, I'm sure you all know how this works (and here's our last one) but, if you don't, it's basically a post to give the game at large an update or a summary of what's going on with each of your characters. Romances, classes, upcoming plots, things you might want to do with them in the future, crushes, people you want to thread with, etc.

Feel free to include general end of summer thoughts, plots that came together, and development that occurred over the entire course of the long, hot summer. For the newbies, feel free to describe the first few days and maybe outline what you're hoping to do! And, the familiar example:

Umbridge: Sometimes, it's hard for me to play her because she's so intensive and tiring. But, she's having fun hexing students and pissing off teachers. I'm enjoying her games of give and take with Anakin and Wade, particularly. I'd love to see her thread more with Roy. She'll be leaving soon but not before a big explosive ending.


It doesn't have to be exactly like that but that's basically the gist. Feel free to reply to each other if you have thread ideas or even plot ideas. So, go forth and share!

Elena:
* Finding her feet. Settling in. Starting to like it here.
* Cannot believe she volunteered to do paperwork.
* Has no idea what it means, that Tseng agreed to her terms.
* Or what's going to happen once she finishes the paperwork.
* In the meantime, she'll be here: drinking, smoking, having sex with boys who promise not to call.
* And watching the sky.

Lizzy:
* Excited to be back to teaching.
* Needs a Darcy like whoa.
* Misses home a great deal more than she lets on.
* Especially Jane.

Alex:
* Still not adjusting.
* Has no idea if she ever will.
* Would give anything to be back in a courtroom.
* Enjoying the whatever-it-is she seems to have going, with Gibbs.
* Particularly glad that he doesn't seem in a hurry to label it.

Alice:
* Does not come out to play as often as she'd like, mainly because her particular brand of insanity requires more focus to write than most of my others.
* Is thinking very seriously about graduation, and what she's going to do afterwards.
* Is seriously considering going to Arrakis, with Leto.
* Has plot in the works, maybe, if I can work the kinks out. Am still tinkering and pondering.

Rikku:
* Misses Fandom, but knows it was time for her to go.
* Misses Reno, and the Posse, and the Club, and her sibs, and her friends, and everyone else under the sun. There's no "but" on this one.
* Is very proud of herself for organizing the upcoming conference, and getting people in Spira to talk instead of just glare at each other and mumble.
* There's going to be a major wrench thrown in the works, before the conference can happen, and something she's going to decide to deal with herself, which means actually confronting some of her issues in a way that the sequel itself side-stepped (which thoroughly pissed me off). That should be happening: soon-ish, I think.

Yesssssssss. She wants to know exactly what kind of slut he is, for Reno to take notice of it. That's pretty impressive.
