Question meme for Mithos on Sterling and Eve (Seth) on Jasper!

Comments

[squirreledaway]

any new song calls for Mithos? Or songcalls for Seth?

[aprettygirl]

Ordinary Day by Vanessa Carlton for Mithos! Well, it's more Mithos and Lloyd than just Mithos, but it's still valid.

Calendar Girl by Stars is my favorite general songcall for Seth. Lost by Annie Lennox is also pretty good for Eve!

(I THINK all three videos I linked are legit but I can't check in class whups.)

Your favorite icons for however many of your characters you want to do!

How's Eve handling the trauma game?

[aprettygirl]

She's both doing well and . . . not? She's doing well in that she is still functional and able to truck on after the fact; she did succeed in her main goal that game, which was to ensure Jasper came out alive and also not create any ill-will that might lead to them becoming established targets for others in future games. She is completely okay with being ruthlessly committed to protecting Jasper in death games above all other teams, no matter how much she might get to like other teams.

She feels really bad being petty about Jasper's decisions though! She hadn't given the situation the consideration it deserved until she saw the blood in endgame and also wasn't able to physically protect Saya when Jabberwock attacked. She feels generally bad that people died, but -- it's the pettiness that is the big factor in her guilt here!

I talked briefly about her reaction of shock and emotional lockdown, and that's both a way of punishing herself for being so casual about death and a way of defending herself/not letting others see her as weak. Because she also feels pretty weak and helpless in Aather right now! :|a She won't forever, but it's a curiously vulnerable time for her. Fffortunately she is innately capable of just dealing and bottling up and moving on rather than flipping out.

The one good reaction to the trauma game is that she did make a genuine hard connection/feel genuine affection and protectiveness to Saya! It's good to see her defenses finally lowering a little to let in a fellow Jasper.

Reverse?

How's Mithos feelin' right now.

[aprettygirl]

Mithos has a lot on his plate :|a He is dealing because he is now built to deal indefinitely but it has been a very hard couple of days and he is tired and has a sort of confrontation to get to on the current IC day sometime which he is not going to enjoy one bit. On the other hand the aftermath of the Mother game -- where he sat down with Zack and Lloyd and they thought up a new way to shove at the Personae and their rules and roles -- has given him some fresh drive on that front.

At any given time Mithos is generally all right but he depends each day on being able to lean a little on his support people and/or being able to make a happy moment for himself in the form of helping someone out, so he doesn't start feeling too bogged down.

How would a confrontation between Enma and Crazylegs go.

First impressions with Eve and general SOTU between Yuri and Mithos?

[aprettygirl]

Eve thinks Yuri is a cool bro with, perhaps, a lot of problems on his plate. She enjoys their interaction! Her impression of the Personae has gone increasingly downhill so she did super appreciate the way he stood up for himself in an unpleasant game -- even if she did also think it was kind of dumb :|a WOULD FLIRT WITH MORE, MIGHT OPEN UP TO A LITTLE EASIER LATER ON, MAYBE!

Mithos is . . . not particularly judgey of Yuri's life/love choices :|a They hit really close to home in places. He hhhates seeing Yuri getting constantly hurt and closing off, though his needing to deal with Vincent is a measured response against a source of violence/murder in the community that's gone unchecked rather than a personal vendetta. He is pretty determined to keep chasing Yuri and punch him as necessary because he is just a 'friends don't let friends isolate themselves' kind of guy. I think their friendship has hit the really serious veins under the lolgamemarried lolflirting banter lately, so I'm interested to see if/how they bounce back to that in coming days.

Reverse...s!

First impressions with Eve and Oz as well as relationship for Mithos and Flynn

[aprettygirl]

Eve really likes Oz's company! What a gentleman ♥ She appreciated him showing her around quite a bit and she does genuinely like him as far as she allows herself to like non-teammates in Aather so far. Ruby was one of the teams who died who she did feel some investment in protecting/defending, along with Sapphire; she was not happy seeing Oz get shanked.

I will get back to Mithos and Flynn along with your next question 'cos I need a little time to think about that one :|a

Any songcalls for Oz or Flynn?

[orange_sun]

SOTU?

[antreegonist]

I think Mithos and Josh are pretty levelly positive :|a It's been a tough couple of days, they are still good friends who are worried about each other and trust each other fairly unconditionally and have a care for each other's close folks, etc. Mithos feels a little guilty having to wave away Josh's suggestions re: blowing off tension for the meantime; irrationally so since it's been a question of being tired/powercapped/HOLY SHIT THE WEATHER rather than Mithos actually not caring.

He is, interestingly, wondering whether to open up to Josh a little more frankly about stuff he's doing concerning the Personae! I don't know if he will -- some of it is pretty controversial and some concerns realizations so big he just has to sit on them for a while -- but that he's open enough with Josh on that front to consider it says a lot about the general trust levels in their relationship.

How're Josh's feels on Tiger's Eye/the past couple of games/etc?

[blackjacked]

First impressions for Eve? :O?

[antreegonist]

Kit is cool in Eve's book \:D/ Their interaction in her intro was actually the reason Jasper didn't consider ladling extra damage on Coral in Jabberwock's game. He is cute and friendly and comfortably flirty back at her! His sleight-of-hand is also neat! She likes him.

Kit also makes use of masking/doubletalk/mystery in a way that's pingy to her (there are actually some interesting similarities in how they act/cope, I think) and while she's not actively interested in prying and inviting prybacks while she's still on shaky footing, she might see that mystery as a ~challenge~ later.

Tell me about Kit and Coral + trauma feels!

[exchanged]

Joining the first impressions for Eve bandwagon :U

[antreegonist]

Silver is cute, fun to flirt with and fluster, and is also one of the first people to offer her help/explain stuff about Aather clearly to her, which went a long way in establishing their relationship as positive with room for both silliness and seriousness! She still has to dump sand down his shirt.

I do wonder what would have happened if Silver had been one of the knights paired with Jasper for Jabberwock's game, since I do think Eve working with knights she'd already accrued some trust and respect for would have altered her decisions some. :|a

Reverse for any of yours on any of mine, Personae included!

[thinkoutsidethebox]

...Relationship? :)

[aprettygirl]

Eve has kind of identified Erika as the other overridingly dominant force in Jasper! She doesn't actively dislike her but she is . . . mm . . . a lot less tolerant of her than of other teammates because Erika's priorities (WINNING EVERYTHING!) don't necessarily seem to align well with hers (protect Jasper, don't aggravate other teams towards Jasper so they're safer in the long term, etc.)

She is sssitting back for now and won't attempt to manage Erika's unpleasantness too actively until the time calls for it. She's not there to 'fix' Erika or anything -- in fact, she appreciates Erika's intelligence and ruthlessness, they're valuable! -- but she is willing to go pretty far to keep Jasper peaceable, which later on might involve figuring out a way to get Erika to focus vindictiveness on just her instead of the rest of the team. Hence all the baiting and passive-aggression!

tl;dr SHE LIKES ERIKA IN A MILDLY ANTAGONISTIC WAY EXCEPT WHEN ERIKA FAILS TO CONTROL HERSELF AND IT'S TO JASPER'S DETRIMENT \:D/

Rrreverse!

[doubleminded]

Mithos Mithos Mithos can Kiriko come sit on you sometime '-'

[antreegonist]

YES I WAS ACTUALLY GOING TO ASK IF WE COULD THREAD AGAIN SOON ILU!!!

yessss dw left me my birdfriend icon

(HOW IS KIRIKO DOING BTW ;o;)

[rebells]

TALK TO ME ABOUT EVE AND TEAMFEELS '^' How she sees and conceives of the teams, where she sees herself in the team, thoughts on Jasper as a whole . . . ?

[aprettygirl]

Eve breaks a lot of the patterns I got used to playing my previous teamheroes! She learned about the overall system driving Aather and the reason for the creation of teams rather than focusing on just her team initially! She thinks about Jasper as a part of that system rather than just as their own unit, and she keenly feels the senselessness of forced team divisons and the whole game system and the arbitrary rules! She feels like one of Jasper's responsible adults rather than one of the members to be taken care of! And unlike previous characters I played, she's starting out not trusting her team :'D

Don't get me wrong -- she likes the members of Jasper! She wants to get along with them, she wants the team as a whole to get along, she enjoys the way they poke at each other, and the health and well-being of Jasper's members is pretty much her top priority under her protective layer of irreverence! She had a keen sense of responsibility towards something in her starter memory, and since she can't identify what that something was, she's transferred that responsibility onto Jasper.

It's just . . . she is also emotionally self-sufficient; she's still heavily on the masked and defensive because she's still the only member of Jasper to be completely without any won memories; and she feels pretty keenly that Jasper isn't a 'team' yet on the inside -- right now they're just a bunch of strangers thrown together by rule and circumstance living in the same house.

She hasn't really found it in herself to warm up to/open up to anyone on Jasper emotionally -- except Saya a bit because of their shared traumagame experience! So she's choosing right now to express warmth towards the team by just . . . hella working for them :|a Getting all the items they need, learning to cook and clean and physically take care of their makeshift household, etc.! In terms of team 'role' she is definitely a caretaker figure for Jasper and that's how she's going to define herself unless/until they top her into something a little warmer and more personal.

That was an interesting question! Reverse :3

TELL ME SOMETHING!

[antreegonist]

Mithos started the sketch of Anna for Lloyd but is working on it very slowly, off and on; I think he's a little bit afraid of finishing it and not having it be as true as it could be.

now you tell me something.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS TEAMMATE?!

[aprettygirl]

WHY ARE YOU OUR ONLY SOURCE OF CHEER, YOU POOR SOUL

idk idk she thinks Mitsuki is adorable but also might have been better placed on a gentler team, though she feels he does provide some balance to their being team MOODYMOOD. She likes him well enough -- as I said in above replies, though, she doesn't have a lot of depth of personal feeling for most of Jasper's members yet, just a need and duty to take care of them.

Mitsuki handling the cheerful role actually is something that allows Seth to relax slightly in Jasper cabin, since if he's handling that part of the group dynamic, she can afford to let her perky cheerful peptalking mask slip a little and give it a rest.

What got you to app Mitsuki to Aather?

[soundandfury]

first impression for babby emerald?

[debossy]

OKAY FIRST IMPRESSIONS :B
