Name: Gail
Contact: cacopheny @ plurk, I don't really use discord cuz it intimidates me ^^'
About you: I'm an accountant with three cats living in Southern California, so that's PST timezone. I work from home (yay quarantine, she says, sarcastically) so I tend to be a pretty quick tagger with my boy here, since I can tag from, y'know, work. So far y'all have been extremely welcoming already, I'm excited!

Character: Bucky Barnes who, due to his CRAU and weird canon point, goes by the name "Soldat"
Canon: MCU, by way of a little horror game called In the Night, which then morphed into The Next Night. He's been there a year and a half.
Cabin and team: Cabin 4A, team purple!
Little bit about them: Former brainwashed amnesiac assassin who has spent a year in a dark, dead world talking to spirits and fending off horrible things while trying to put himself back together and help people. Canon point is directly from the helicarrier fight in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, before he's even fished Steve out of the river. He's not entirely stable yet... but he's on his way there, and he's a lot better than he was. He doesn't yet consider himself a person, though he'll admit that he used to be one, and he's kind of Weird compared to canon, thanks to natural development dovetailing with horror-game events.
Hopes and dreams: People to protect and/or take care of, people to poke at his personhood issues, people to freak out that he's basically disassociated all to hell and talks to himself. He's just lost his family, so he's gonna need to start building a new one, cuz connections to people are how he stays semi-stable. Also open to negative CR if things ever go that way, he does in fact have Opinions about some kinds of people. I'm aware there has been another Bucky here in the past and I am excited to have those characters who knew him before to recognize him again and form new connections. There are also characters in this game he has known from his previous game, and I'm happy to go with whatever those muns wanna do when it comes to recognition or not <3
WEIRD CRAU NOTES: ICly Bucky goes by Soldat, because "James Barnes" and "Bucky" had been hard-conditioned against by HYDRA and he didn't have his moment with the Smithsonian exhibit to help him get over that, but he has gotten comfortable enough that he won't freak out anymore when he hears them. He just might... twitch a little and then gently correct anyone who uses it (except Steve, maybe; we'll see). He also uses "they" pronouns ICly, but this is not because he's genderfluid, it's because 1) he's not a person (we're working on this, I promise) and he was informed in no uncertain terms that "they" is better than "it", and 2) he is, as mentioned before, heavily disassociated and so is technically people, plural. I do not expect OTHER CHARACTERS to use these pronouns, cuz he mostly doesn't bother share them except by accident. I tend not to bother in OOC talk half the time, myself, like for introductions like this so I don't feel like I confuse people right out of the gates >.>

sup nerd

(hi gail)

please fight him bucky he wants to fight someone he can actually go hard on

[worthallthis]

Oh gosh hi <3

He might, if it's "training"? He helped run the self-defense classes in Beacon so >.>

[longforgottenpromise]

Welcome Gail!

I'm Katy! I play Taiki here as well as two kids called Little One and Romeo. I look forward to playing with Soldat!

[worthallthis]

Soldat loves kids so this is great :3 Let him be big brother.

[controlsthedie]

Hello Gail! I play Thanatos, and it looks like these two are sharing the same sleeper. I don't know if being the God of Death will help by being a similar presence to his former game or not, but I look forward to seeing how these two get along.

[worthallthis]

Roomie! That's gonna be fun :3 Does he breathe? Have a heart beat? If so then they're great, it's cool, if not he might freak out a little :D

[controlsthedie]

He does, but they are both much slower than a human. He's also colder than a human normally is too. So alive but feeling like he's dead if that makes sense.

[worthallthis]

Absolutely good enough :3 Even slow is doable, so long as it's THERE, ya know? Some way to know that the guy is there without having to look at him.

Can't wait to meet him :D

[controlsthedie]

He also floats off the ground a lot, so even something slow is probably good considering no footsteps

[flatteries]

hi hi gail, it's nice to meet you! i'm jelle and i play inigo here, and if you're looking for people to take care of or building a family, well.. good news! inigo was really close with the bucky who used to be in the game, to a point where inigo treated that bucky like a big brother and that bucky treated inigo like a little brother in turn, mostly since they bonded over issues. (since inigo ended up having to become practically a child soldier when he was very young due to Circumstances...)

so it's going to be so weird for him to suddenly have a different bucky here, especially one that doesn't even know him! but i'm definitely up for building new cr and seeing where it goes. c:

[worthallthis]

Oh nooooo Inigo, poor guy. Losing people is hard, he know this :( I am absolutely game to see what happens here! He may not be what Inigo remembers exactly, but he will try to be a good big brother if he can >.>

[worthallthis]

Okay so I think we actually know each other? XD I've been sitting here for days going "where the hell do I know this username from" and I finally figured it out! You played off my Riddick for a little while back in Syn :3

[flatteries]

oh, i totally remember that! i almost forgot i played inigo in that game too, but i definitely remember riddick! it's good to play with you again! c:

[swansongs]

Hello, hello! I'm Nic and I'm very excited to see Bucky here. Also, his CRAU bits sound super interesting!

I have Dyme here, who got pretty close to the previous Bucky. As in, they dated briefly and Dyme was planning a surprise romantic date for them that never happened. So he's going to be, in order: thrilled to see Bucky and then very, very confused. Probably also a little sad. I'm excited to break Dyme's heart again start their cr anew.

I also play Adam Parrish from The Raven Cycle who's never met Bucky but I'd love to throw his way sometime. Adam's a good kid, very patient and kind and he's been through A Lot (abuse, making deals with magical forests, losing people, etc).

[worthallthis]

Oh no I'm really coming into some interesting potential CR here /pats poor Dyme!

I am happy to have them meet and work out the confusion and sadness :3 He'll feel so bad if he figures it out. It's gonna be great.

[laurefindil]

Team Purple?? I am so shocked! :D

I play Glorfindel, an elf who has Been Around and Seen Things for about 5000 years, and Wei Wuxian, a recovering Necromancer. I look forward to playing with you!

[worthallthis]

I have absolutely no idea what the team colors mean, tbh, ahaha XD

What an awesome combo! I am familiar with Lord of the Rings, clearly, and I've seen the fandom for Wei, but I somehow had no idea anybody in it was a necromancer :B Nice!

[laurefindil]

We know that there are four different colors, and Red is mostly the "Kill things until they die" except for one, Orange is "Solve all the puzzles" except for the ones who don't, Blue is either Mom or Kid ;) and Purple is, "Well...we're likely to sacrifice ourselves for our friends"...again, except for the ones who aren't. LOL So welcome to the world of "We have no clue either!" And yet...not surprised at Bucky being Purple. :)

As for Wei, well...it's an easy way of explaining his character to someone who isn't familiar with the whole Resentful Energy/Cultivation thing. :)

[worthallthis]

Huh! And now we know why Steve "fite me" Rogers is on team red... Soldat will be kind of relieved that nobody put him on the "kill all the things" team, if he works that out, though, haha

[10billionpercent]

Hello Gail, nice to meet you! I play Senku Ishigami, Natsuno Yuuki/Koide, Yoite and Demyx.

I wasn't here when there was another Bucky so fresh CR from me if you want it :D

[worthallthis]

I am game for fresh CR too /makes gimme hands

I am absolutely canonblind, I have no idea who any of those characters are, but that's how I am with most characters so I'm just happy to get to know them :D

[10billionpercent]

That's alright, not to worry. They're a bunch of nerds that's what XD

Should be great!
