Player Info:
Name: Meg
Method of contact: PMing on

gordianknots is really the most effective.
Timezone: esT
Tagging Habits: I try and keep my e-mail inbox tidy, so I err towards boomeranging when I'm not at work. However, my pace is usually set by the other person replying, so I will tag whenever I get something from them in my inbox - be it immediate or over a day or a few. I also am a big dialog writer, which I find works better with brackets.
RP preferences: I've found that CR for me works best without any planning, but large threads involving a lot of people tend to need structuring, and when that happens I at least like to have an outline of what's going to happen - that way if things get dropped or take too long to thread out and there's events that happen in-game in real-time as a consequence of the thread, those events can be talked about accordingly.
A little bit about you: I work as an archivist, which means I get to spend a lot of time touching old books and documents. I just finished helping my boss co-curate an exhibit of books about the occult, a lot of which were 16th and 17th century, which was awesome. It also means I move a lot of boxes, which is decidedly less awesome.

Character Info:
Character Name: Waver Velvet
Series: Fate/zero
Personality: A very grumpy academic, who also happens to be a mage. Also at age 19 he kind of magically summoned Alexander the Great to fight in a battle royale, so that left a mark on him.
Court: Unseelie
Current location: Caer Scima, mostly in the library. He hasn't moved for like, a month.
Open Posts: None right now.
Current or future plans: So Waver tried to gauge interest for a meeting of both court citizens to do a little bit of exploring. I've been waiting for May to actually make that happen (and haven't been sure if I should throw a mini plotting post up or what).
Catch-up: Waver's been living in the library mostly, and downplaying-to-not mentioning his magic abilities as to remain unremarkable to everyone around him. (This'll be changing shortly, considering he's starting some instruction within Caer Scima.)
Desired CR: Waver tends to think in the long term, which is one of the reasons he's been working on gaining allies. And really by allies he means people who think the whole fighting situation is bullshit and want a third option to get home. Strengthening those ties would be really lovely, although getting new people to poke at what Waver's up to would also be fun. In addition, poking at Waver's professorial side would be fun - he's known for producing very skilled students in canon, and I suspect that might be useful for some people here.
Shipping: No, thank you.
Things to avoid:: Nothing here.

i sense a possible overlap in our desired cr blurbs.

yeeeeeeeeeesss

and the fact that waver is actually like, invested in helping students is probably a plus.

yes hah. definitely a bit of a plus.

actually maybe a weird question -- i'm utterly canon-blind but how's waver with chess? i've always wanted sansa to have the chance to learn it, and perhaps cross-court games via the lockets might be interesting. so here's a stab in the dark from me.

Waver's fine with chess (his canon exists within the modern era, with Fate/zero set in the 90s. ~~because he's english i get to make a million jokes about how many spice girls songs he's got memorized~~) It'd definitely be plausible to set up a chess game over the watches!

:) I've been building rapport for Celegorm actually trying to convince other folks to go with him as guards for the journey, if you're still game for that!

Also, Celegorm probably spends a lot of night hours in the library, visibly teaching himself a lot of the local written languages, and practicing a lot of re-drawing of local maps. If he saw Waver there much at all, he'd probably cozy up at the same table to do his own work (if it looked like there were room) and periodically fetch them both tea.

I'm like 99% sure that Waver guarding anything is destined to fail, but man, if you want comedy relief I can give you that.

All I'm saying is massive bookfort on the table. If Celegorm could find room that'd be a miracle.

Unless I miss my mark, Waver would be the one leading the expedition!

(So Waver tried to gauge interest for a meeting of both court citizens to do a little bit of exploring. I've been waiting for May to actually make that happen (and haven't been sure if I should throw a mini plotting post up or what).)

Celegorm was paranoid enough that he would remain insistent on Waver's party having a guard contingent, and has been trying to cultivate talents for this and interest in the job in others. Plus, it might give him the opportunity to re-unite with the rest of his fam!

Celegorm is secretly an efficiency expert. He could find the room!

...woah, okay, total brain fart. Sorry about that, it's been a day. /facepalms at self a LOT.

i kind of dropped the ball in our thread (sorry about that btw) but i'd still be interested icly if Waver does get some kind of travel meetup going!

Hey, don't worry about it, it happens!

I think I am going to go through with the IC travel meet up when we find out what May's events are, and try and work around that accordingly.

kano's been hitting up the library a lot lately so he might run into waver there! he's been trying to figure out a way to avoid the war too because fighting is...... not really his area of expertise here and he doesn't really care about the war. let's avoid it altogether.

he's a really chatty kid though if waver's ok with that

Waver teaches magic teenagers he's cool with chatty.

he's going to ask so many questions

talk about all the things

waver can we learn how to do fireballs yet. waver can you teach us teleportation.

maybe to all of the above but not in the library ESPECIALLY not fireballs in the library

you had alisha at "people who think the whole fighting situation is bullshit." i'm unfamiliar with waver, but he seems like the type of person alisha would totally like since his opinion is hers! she hates fighting, she hates being here, and this war is not her problem, so maybe they could get together over a cup of tea and bitch some?

Waver is constantly game for bitching about things over tea - and it'd let us get to know each other's canons too, since Waver is going to definitely play twenty questions to try and get an idea of Alisha's personality.

excellent! even though alisha will probably be annoyed by the twenty questions, HE'S SOMEONE WHO HATES THIS PLACE LIKE SHE DOES! we can see how the month of may is going to go re: events and perhaps set up a log with these two bumping into one another?

I feel obligated to apologise for the fact he is of the persuasion of "question literally everything" but it is a huge advantage both IC and OOC sometimes.

And that sounds like an excellent plan. When in doubt, admittedly, the library is good for this dorkface.

Heyo person my brother likes a lot, expect creepering from Mags once he gets out of his funk and starts being interested in who his brother is making friends with. ~~I am sorry I suck at planning things~~

Don't even apologise about sucking at planning things, and 100% up for this creepering.

m0_0m

Kido's going to be spending a lot of time in the library studying up on magic. She really wants to get home but she also realises she needs to like. Survive long enough to think of a way to get back so!!

Mostly I'm just here because Waverrrrr.

Here let him help you with those books that seems like a very large stack you're carrying :DD

afkjdsafasl oh god no pressure or anything now

S-Senpai....

But yeah I'll be tossing up a post soon about magic and it'll have an open action library option so yeah! o/
