CR Meme

[melodiesmods]

The purpose of this meme is simple: to expand your characters' CR, plot for current & future events and make your characters' lives unnecessarily complicated. Post information regarding your characters using the form below, so you may meet and speak with other players in the game and plot for more CR opportunities!

1. Copy the form below, fill it and post it!
2. Comment around and plot with your fellow players.
3. Profit!

<b>Player:</b> Your name/alias. <b>Plurk:</b> <user name="PLURKUSERNAME" site="plurk.com"> (or any other contact if you don't have plurk) <b>Timezone:</b> What timezone do you live in? <b>Character:</b> [OU/AU] Character Name <b>Canon:</b> The canon they come from! <b>Info:</b> Just drop a few lines here to describe your character, as seriously or humorously as you want. <b>Job(s):</b> Your character's currently equipped jobs, and optionally those they have in reserve! <b>Housing:</b> Your character's house. <b>Moogle:</b> Name of their Moogle and anything relevant about them you want to say. <b>Status</b>: How's your character doing in the fine world of Crystallis? Do they like being called a Hero of Light? Do they like the food? Or may they hate everything about this situation and secretly dream of killing everyone? That's where you put anything relevant to your character's current status in the game. <b>Employment:</b> Got employed anywhere, or maybe they got a business? Maybe they're planning to take on an employment or to create a guild? Otherwise, leave N/A. <b>Plans:</b> Got something going on for them right now?

Well at the very least if the topic did come up he knows all about how being out of control and doing bad things makes you feel, having been through that twice now. He takes it worse than most since his self-discipline is one of his strongest traits that he prides himself in.

As for Sephiroth mentoring anyone; I never say no however he's not the mentoring type so it'd take a lot of thought/persuasion for him to step up to taking on a responsibility like that. Within SOLDIER he was very much like that strict teacher that'd wrap your knuckles raw for just putting a foot slightly out of line, that teacher that nothing is ever good enough for. It suited as he was the top of the top then, but he'd not really feel justified having that attitude here since the playing field is more level - but it's a case of that's the only mentoring he's ever done, from a position so far elevated that most of his students were probably too busy being star-struck rather than learning anything. There is a reason why Angeal did most of the mentoring.

And look at my rambling omg.

Safe to say, he'd need a pretty big reality check to come along to make him think that it should be something to do- especially now that since in the dream, his previous self did all the mentoring also...he'd worry about the consequences later on.

It would be interesting to do that (having her talk about being out of control/doing bad things) :) I'll see if I can lead her in that direction without it seeming forced. I do think his calm quiet type would make him the kind of person she'd tend to spill her guts to, even if she made it vague since she's ashamed/vulnerable about it.

It's funny that he mentored, I didn't know that. As it was, I thought he'd be a terrible mentor for the springy, slouchy spastic ball of energy that was Rikku and it sounds like I'm right by his teaching style, she'd drive him crazy. She's about as anti military as you can be. They'd drive each other crazy by the sounds of it. It was really more about her trying to move forwards, and find confidence somewhere. She needs to learn to look for that confidence in herself and that she's not going to get it by mimicing others. And that everyone, even people who seem like they have it as together as Sephiroth carry their own struggles. She would certainly try wholeheartedly though - she throws herself into everything she does, and any kind of training would still help her grow stronger on some level too, so it will benefit her with her goal of becoming a stronger guardian.

Lol don't ever feel shy rambling with me, as you can see, I'm quite good at it myself.

Rikku will bring up the mentoring thing, I'm not sure if she'll be able to persuade him lol, but darnit she'll try.

It's always the quiet ones :p go for it!

You only ever get one glimpse of it in a quick scene in Crisis Core, from Zack's perspective, but it's there :) Certainly sold on at least giving it a try to get the CR to develop that way with Rikku, it'd be amusing at the very least.
