*awkwardly clears throat a few times, taps the mic until there's a faint screech of feedback, then clears throat again and leans in*

Hi, my name's Dru, I used to RP in the original Nexus on LJ waaaaaaay back when I was in highschool. Love that you guys are keeping the spirit alive, a bit sad that it's so quiet comparatively. Used to be, people were getting LOL'd all over the place. I mean the community was just silly with 'em.

*cough* ANYWAY- I've been out of the Journal Based RP scene for ages at this point and it's an itch that's been festering at the back of my mind for the past year or so. I've always been at my most creative when involved in RP communities like this, and while I'm not sure I'm ready for a game yet, I'm glad that the Nexus is still here for me to dip my toes back in. Especially since all I got right now is this bad boy OC I'm slowly making icons for. *slaps Furfur's stomach and makes it jiggle* This bear of a Devil (cambion, really) can fit SO many shenanigans in him. He's based out of D&D/BG3's Hell of Avernus, but he prefers getting out and touring the planes instead of stewing in the blood pit.

So uhhhh, yeah. That's what I got. Figure we could all use a little escapism, and I'm desperately trying not to be the weird kid in the corner.

Well hello there, fellow BG3 fan! I don't know whether Zevlor will be totally comfy with your muse at first, but I'd be delighted to find out.

My main muse here is MCU Loki, but in LJ days I played Courtney Crumrin if that means anything to you.

I will not lie- Seeing ZEVLOR on the posts page was, in fact, the final straw that got me to go ahead and make this journal. I squeed like the tiefling fanboy I am. (I am still kind of squeeing a little) While I hope that Zevlor comes to like him as they get used to each other, I definitely wouldn't expect it to happen right away, and I am perfectly fine if Zevlor ends up considering him a pain in the ass. He can be as annoying as he is charming.

I also think Furfur would enjoy being friends with Loki. They have so much in common! Terrible dads, perfect goody-two shoes brothers who can do know wrong, and a penchant for trickery.

Courtney looks familiar, but I have a really bad memory, and I don't actually remember who I played back there. I swapped muses a lot. I know I played a Spartan (from Halo) OC for a while, and Beast Machines Rattrap.

I haven't been super consistent about tagging lately, but if you want to tag that post of Zevlor's I'll tag you back even though it's from last year, haha.

Fair warning, my Loki has been around the Nexus for a lonnnnnnng time so there's some character growth! He's pretty well reconciled with the Thor here and also he has four adopted children. I also have Barcus Wroot kicking about although I haven't made any posts with him.

Thank you, I appreciate it! I have an idea for a post myself kicking around up here, it's just getting enough brain cells together to type it up that's the trick.

Barcus my beloved ♥ I have a Rolan rolling about, but given that I haven't even finished setting this guy up, he has to wait before I'm ready to do anything with him.

Gaaaaasp, character development? After playing Loki for longer than a month? Say it isn't so! Loki's not allowed to have good things happen to him! I've seen the show! (no but for real, the four kids thing is sweet, and as much as Furfur likes to complain about his twin, they're on fairly good terms for devils)

I cannot tell you how much I love to see Rolan about. I have an account for Dammon that I have no icons for as of yet, so if you want tiefling bro shenanigans consider me for your blacksmithing needs.

Ha! My Loki predates the show, he is Sacred Timeline with a twist, but I have such a soft spot for Mobius. I have equal amounts of complaints and kudos for the show, but RP is for fixing things the way we want them to be fixed, dammit.

I will not lie - I started combing my screenshots for shots of Rolan. I have taken. So many (partially just to have his dialogue accessible for when I want to check something). I also 100% love the idea of Dammon and Rolan being bros; I don't remember if it's something mentioned in canon, but I like the mental imagine of Dammon and Rolan working together to upgrade Ramazith's Tower's cannon.

I feel you on the show. I do have mostly positive feelings about it, and I was absolutely geeking out over the finale as someone who is into Norse Mythology, but. Well, Ragnarok Loki is my favorite.

Hello and welcome! I'm Ael, the mun of the Thor that

coldsong mentioned. :) (Though they're from different AUs, lol.) We've wound down a bit over the past few years but that's part of being a community of adults I think. Lots more pressing concerns that make it hard to play, emotionally and otherwise. For now we're still going though, so welcome!

I was also a Nexus-goer on LJ back in Ye Olde RP Era, but I mained Clark Kent (Smallville AU) back then.

Boy do I feel you with the adult with pressing concerns thing. I migrated to RPing in World of Warcraft after LJ, and over the last year or so, I've fallen out out it between work and health stuff. Cannot keep up with it. Part of the reason I wanted to get back into journal RP is because I was it tends to be a lot easier to pace myself and I don't have to be On for two to three hours if I'm not up for it.

Oh, you I remember. I don't recall if we actually interacted, but I do remember seeing Clark and reading his threads. Part of me wishes I could remember who I was playing back then, but part of me is glad that I can't because I know whatever I was doing, I was like 17 and still figuring my shit out.

Well if nothing else we are certainly a community of folks who Understand slow-tagging and having to pick up threads after days of not responding, so this might be a good place for you to exercise that then. :)

You mentioned an OC Spartan up above and that sounds vaaaaguely familiar, but I don't recall if I tagged with you either. I interacted with so many people back then, lol.

Someone new? 8D

Heyo I am a Kiwi, I've got this darling skelly boy here, Karlach because who can go wrong with Best Girl, and I kinda main Yet Another Loki (AoA comic goober if you know that side of things). OH and Mollymauk because Why Not More Tieflings? You can never go wrong!

Down for whatever kinda shenanigans come of flinging our characters around, it's all fun times!

Listen, if I pulled out every OC I have stuck in my head, there'd be nothing but tieflings for miles XD Right now, my main headspace is BG3, but I love EVERYTHING you have listed here.

I'm sure Furfur and Karlach here will be butting heads real quick, given that he's a cambion and loosely affiliated with Zariel (even though his opinion of her is "Zariel is the reason we can't have anything nice in Hell"), but there is a Rolan out and about for her to say hi to!

Look if there's any truth in the world it's that Zariel sucks and Karlach will absolutely stand on that. Friction to start, but if Furfur's as chill as the vibe seems to be, it'll get ironed out eventually!

AND YES it's like Oops! All Berries! but with tieflings. Tieflings everywhere.

Gotta do my Adult Nonsense before I can go trawling into New Tags but feel free to add me on Discord or Plurk if you have 'em for chatting/future plotting/Kiwi's Feral Meme-Sharing Hours. (it's atomic_kiwi on both)

Honestly, Furfur is here to party and/or get laid, he doesn't care which. He's only engaging with plot with Zevlor because rustling jimmies is his third favorite hobby.

....And now I have to add "Bad Guy" to his playlist, as this made me think "He doesn't care if people consider him an antagonist, he'll lean into it for a laugh." He's a dickhead, but the kind of dickhead that causes as many problems for himself as he does for others.

100% understand Adult Nonsense. I get to battle chronic illness nonsense (hence the delayed response), and I'm still not fully a person yet x_x
