Player: Amie
Plurk: [plurk.com profile] jenovaboi
Timezone: BST (That's GMT+1 due Summertime)

Character: [OU] Sephiroth
Canon: Final Fantasy VII
Info: Pre-crisis variety. Before all the burning-village, meteor-dropping, stigma-spreading phase that he crashes into- but no less complicated! He's p much a stand up human being and a generally nice guy if you ignore the fact he can be awkward turtle a lot socially. He's a stand-alone, highly skilled fighter/tactician and there is his perfectionist/arrogant/overconfident streak though so be careful with that prickly pride of his. (More info on my app/info post)
Job(s): Warrior (MAX) & Scholar (3 Month) equipped still. Plus Onion Knight. Plus Chocobo Knight (3 Month), Illusionist (3 Month)
Dragoon (& MAX) in reserve.
Housing: B-04 (Tifa, Alice & Elena) though, current log aside, he's not been home in pretty much a month.
Moogle: Spencer - There is a link for more info about him on my Info post as well, but basically he's a small, scrawny off-white moogle with glasses who (like his Hero) has a thing for being matter-of-factly but in a more bookish way. Though given all they've been through together so far he has really connected with Sephiroth and feels responsible a lot for/worries about him a lot; moreso recently, Spencer knows there is something wrong but feels like he can't say anything.

Status: As per my most recent logs, the aftermath of Doppleganger event has smashed a definite crack right across the mirror of an already strained but-still-stubbornly-carrying-on type of sanity. Sephiroth has a lot on his mind about who he is, what he is and will become, not to mention the identity crisis that being faced with his doppelganger has triggered. As a result, he's locked himself down emotionally, distanced himself from everyone and surrounded himself with something which he feels safer in - his work at Esdham. Much like when he first enlisted was to get over the Night of the 13 moogles, Sephiroth is currently overworking himself as then he doesn't have time to think too much. He got promoted to Captain recently though; it's not like his current mental stability is yet in question - at least not professionally.
Employment: As mentioned in above, Sephiroth is a Captain within the Military at Esdham now and -despite it being voluntary employment- spends a great deal of his time there. Training, drilling, fighting...it's a life he's very much used to.
Plans: Depending on the details within the ooc post for the memory event I might have a certain scene in a certain reactor, concerning Genesis, played out for all to see - only as this really is the most single crushing to-be memory for Sephiroth just a little later on in his canon, and something that he doesn't already know of through the Doppelganger event. Then at least the cards are on the table for more people to see and he can maybe get the support he needs-

I'm playing with the idea of a minor canon-update to exactly just after that memory, after the memory event itself for added mess (also a chance for a brief hiatus for myself, maybe). Only as it then will put Sephiroth in the hospital when he wakes up and in not-a-very-fit mental state to be just leaving...or at least if the nurses/doctors that work there are smart enough to realize/if someone from the cast tips them off/someone else tells on how he was different in said dream...perhaps a hold on his enlistment pending a mental 'all clear' before he can go back to work...

Desired CR: I'm still waiting for the day when the Silver-Elite becomes a thing but he's really got to get doing some Heroism in order for that to happen and Sephiroth has had his motivation ripped out from under him recently. Other than that I don't really go into anything desiring any CR in particular.

Though I've said before and will say again he needs support, of the not-too-obvious sort (that pride), there and he will come to need it more on the path out of his current slump. But on the other hand he does also need the support that is stubborn enough to force itself to be there even if he doesn't want it.
Undesired Things: I never say never.
Shipping: I'd like something to develop with someone - problem being he's about as emotionally available as a glacier. There is a air-of-Terra starting to develop but it's so small he's not even thinking about 'feelings' yet. I'm not even sure that she's really his type, it's just nice to have someone rely on him like she does, you know?
Additional Comment: I'm in the UK with a full-time job, so tagging time is limited to evenings and weekends mostly. I know I've been really terrible keeping on the ball and my standard isn't really where it needs to be so I hope this will improve soon. I will always tag back, back tagging is very much my game but if you end up with something you'd like to hand wave, hit me up and we'll work it out!

Regarding the support Seph is going to need -- Jade is definitely not going to coddle him, but he does know what it's like crossing the line into doing bad things, and thanks to canon events he has a very "screw destiny" mentality about it.

Basically, he's going to hold Seph accountable if he turns evil, but also support him if he decides to fight it. It's all about free will and personal responsibility with him.

"Screw destiny" sounds like it would be some pretty sound advise right about now - point of fact. Sephiroth being Sephiroth will otherwise spend the rest of his time in Crystallis looking over his shoulder and thinking about longer-term consequences for anything he says or does for anyone and that's not healthy. At all.

Should I ever take the dive into Evil!Sephiroth, he'd gladly be accountable and proud of it. The trick is getting Sephiroth for the now back into being badass.

It'll be interesting the next time they have a chance to chat! There's always the event if we can't think of any other reason for them to talk about things.

Got anything against having Sephiroth meet Makoto? I think they're similar enough that they'd get along pretty well.
shinrasfinest: (Don't insult me)

[personal profile] shinrasfinest 2015-05-13 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Nothing at all! Got for it.

I'd have to read up a little more again on Makoto but I do recall getting that feel from your app before.

I'd definitely welcome friendship and/or understanding between the two, with all expected character-development and playing out that's required. I've enjoyed what interactions we've had already. I do NOT romantically pair Vincent and Seph, nor do I headcanon Vincent related to Seph in any way. (Just because it's always good to be clear and we're on the same page I think. ^_^)
shinrasfinest: (Arms Folded)

[personal profile] shinrasfinest 2015-05-13 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm so glad we're on so much of the same page with this.

Yes, yes and yes. I can easily see Vincent developing respect fairly quickly, even if the friendship will be a longer haul (he's been hurt by friendship in the past so doesn't fall into that easily) - and I'll love the side-connotation that Vincent gets to know Sephiroth when he was someone to be admired; rather than the monster he is when Vince woke up in canon.

Lu would be so proud- Well...when he's back on the rails a bit.
unyieldingspirit: (how do I put this)

[personal profile] unyieldingspirit 2015-05-22 12:27 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not sure exactly what, but I'd like to see if they can work something out.
shinrasfinest: (All the same)

[personal profile] shinrasfinest 2015-05-22 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Work something out with regards to? Any even small thoughts we could expand on?
unyieldingspirit: (greeting programs)

[personal profile] unyieldingspirit 2015-05-24 02:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, hm! Some sort of friendly bond? I'm not entirely certain- skills, what each other is capable of, if at all likely?
shinrasfinest: (Intent Gaze)

[personal profile] shinrasfinest 2015-05-25 01:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Friendly bonds are very hard to come by with Sephiroth, he has a problem connecting with people down to his own defensive nature/aloof manner. However, for sure the foundations can be laid in similarities in skills...
unyieldingspirit: (puff puff)

[personal profile] unyieldingspirit 2015-05-25 02:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Hm. That might get her curious, so maybe she'd try and put a word in here and there, at least?

Ah… hm. Similarities? I don't think there's a lot of overlap in jobs, but I'd definitely like to figure something out… She does prefer a close-combat role, but I'm not sure how well that jives.
shinrasfinest: (Huh?)

[personal profile] shinrasfinest 2015-05-25 05:55 pm (UTC)(link)
We'll see how their current CR develops but noted all the same!
