Summer Casting Call/CR Wishlist

[teacosyghost]

Hey folks! To help with all your plotting and enabling needs, welcome to the Summer Casting Call and CR Wishlist! The idea here is to give players somewhere to bat ideas around, get inspired, and advertise their schemey desires.


So what goes here? Any of the following:

• Enabling! Got a particular character/canon you’d love to play with? Show them some love here!

• Plot ideas, new or in progress: Are you setting up an infiltration thread and need a Computer Guy? Do you have just the seed of an idea and want to know if anyone else is interested?

• CR Wanted: Maybe you just need someone for your smart-mouthed villain to trade barbs with. Maybe your naive rookie needs a mentor. Maybe you’ve really got the itch to write a scene where your cocky genius falls on his face for once. Maybe someone can make it happen!

• Standing requests: If there’s a particular dynamic/thread type you’d love to get more of in general interactions, give everyone a heads-up what you’d love to be thrown your way!

Tips to remember:

Make sure to include a header with a bit of information about what you’re looking for, and don’t forget to link to the journals of your relevant characters! If possible, try to be specific about what you’re looking for, and give enough detail for other players to gauge if they’re interested. For example, when looking for CR, give a bit of information about your character and what sort of dynamic you want to go for.

The Steve Rogers After School Special Clubhouse is accepting applicants.

So, with Steeb here having tentatively returned to the Nexus, I am gently renewing the idea I was working with before his canon update/AU swerve. Namely, he's deeply concerned about young hero types, particularly the powered and costumed sorts, because it's hard enough to balance school and home and social dynamics without throwing fighting evil and dodging the authorities into the mix. The various versions of Spider-Man are what prompted this, because he's still convinced neither Peter Parker nor Miles Morales eat enough, but he's got his eye on others, too.

He has a property in the Nexus that used to be a restaurant but has been converted into a sort of bunkhouse with a kitchen and shower, etc. Not luxury living, but a safe crash pad. (Quicksilver has been living there and caring for it and unless his mun has other ideas for him I suspect he will continue to live there for the foreseeable future, but he understands what Steve is trying to do with the place!)

So, tl;dr--offering smol, retired Steve as intermittent mentor to young or otherwise vulnerable hero-types that need a friendly grown-up. Staying in the clubhouse is optional of course, but it's there for those that need it for a night or a longer time period.

I am also open to him coming into conflict due to this--i.e., someone's nemesis comes looking for them at the clubhouse, someone staying there doesn't have the best of intentions or impulse control, etc. I'm not exactly looking for crises but I'm braced for them and willing to play ball, so plot with me!

The bunk with about fifteen books strewn about it still gets use

Peter's starting to get more play as I get back into my stride. I'm not totally sure what direction I'm taking him any more now than I was then but he needs to start checking in on his friends like Steve here.

Excellent. Peter is like the little sibling Steve never had and it's a good thing he never had because he'd have gotten into twice as many fights. I am looking forward to the inevitable wtf moment when Peter meets smol!Steve, and am willing to plot any time. But no hurry, there's a lot happening.

*wolfie nuzzles of approval, nudges a welcome back basket toward him and his 'cubs'. Also if he or they needs an extra pair of hands or Den parents for advice or anything. all Steve need do is drop a hint or something. XD I swear Dor's gonna start walking around like a Papa wolf long before he gets the Bjorn.

[shieldborne]

Aww! :)
I will keep that in mind if plots come up! Right now people are just chilling and getting reacquainted for the most part, but friendly visits and baked goods are welcome.

[delphicbooksandbaubles]

:3 aye.

And yay! and naturally lovely. *squees* oh I'm sure they would love doing so. Aal would be rather keen to check up on him etc after all.

had to swap journals

I haven't introed her yet, though if you want a kiddo hero to help, I'm more than willing to toss this AU Bird at Steeb.

She needs a good daddy figure (I mean really her Bruce is still mentally a kid himself.) Would be a good thing for her to get out of her Gotham (And not to go hide in Star City) for a bit. She's a college freshman, and is seriously debating staying in the game or dropping it because of events in her AU.

Would probably give her the push she needs to follow Black Canary and Harley into Psychiatry instead of following her male version into law enforcement.
