A Study in OPPOSITES.

[mach_n_roll]

Greetings people of Exsilium. I'm Eek, I'm brand new and I bring to you no fewer than TWO very different characters:



Sonic the Hedgehog, that fidgety little rodent little blue speedy dude that only tells you he's so cool because he IS, and...



Dr. Gordon Freeman, trans-dimensional alien slayer, one-man army, toppler of oppressive transhumanist governments and all-around badass that just happens to be a gigantic nerd as well.

I'm glad to be part of a game again, and it'd be great to do some preemptive plotting! My plurk is "eeknsqueekn", and I'm reachable through AIM as "ickychips". I look forward to playing with you guys!

Good, my enabling worked... |D on you as well as myself. AND NOW WE BOTH ARE HERE. let us do all the plots with the best bros

[mach_n_roll]

ALL THE PLOTS!

[tequilaselai]

(~._.)~

Hiiiii.

[mach_n_roll]

Hi.

...Best username for Tali. Hands-down.

[totallytrustworthy]

WELL HELLO THERE FLATMATE.

[trustycrowbar]

Y helo thar! Let's see; gun-toting, sarcastic, charismatic thief meets badass bookworm with a penchant for bringing his work home with him in the form of large, dangerous, expensive experiments.

Interesting combination.

[totallytrustworthy]

I'm sure it'll be a match made in heaven.

...That could possibly be hell for everyone else.

[trustycrowbar]

Assuming she doesn't try to steal his work to sell to the highest bidder, or fiddle with his equipment and cause another irreconcilable coterminal brane synthesis.

...Those are more common than one would think.

[totallytrustworthy]

No, no...never.

Maybe.

Possibly.

I mean, it does depend on how high those bids are...

[trustycrowbar]

If he has to track her ass down to get his weapons plans back, then things are going to get awkward. XD And dammit, she's not going to flirt her way out of it, either. That won't work on him!

...Not that much, anyway.

[totallytrustworthy]

Can't blame a girl for trying now, can you? :>

[whatsupcroc]

Welcome to the game, Eek! Hahah two different characters indeed! It's nice to see both here. I'm Ishmael, with Collette from a children's book series out of the 90's (Animorphs). Huzzah! Looking forward to seeing you play!

[mach_n_roll]

Hi! Thanks! Are there a lot of Animorphs characters here? I'm sorry to say I've never watched the show, but that was mostly because I didn't have the time to.

[whatsupcroc]

The show itself was a brief run on Nick ages ago, and was pretty damn terrible to be honest! It's a book series that most folks tend to play from, that was serialized monthly starting in the 90's and ending in 2001!

There's a total of three, now, which is not a whole lot! Though by cast numbers it might be here?

[mach_n_roll]

For a long-running canon, three is actually really good!

Anyway, I'm certain Sonic will find a certain amount of solidarity with the Animorph crowd. Being sort of half-animal himself...? Kind of?

[sixthanimorph]

Eek... Eek like the Cat?

In any case, welcome aboard! I'm Milbury, another newbie and like Collette here my boy comes from that crazy 90s series about the kids that turn into animals. David is a terrible jerkface, but if you like jerkfaces, I'd love to send him your way!

[mach_n_roll]

...Actually that's just a coincidence. Cats have nothing to do with it.

I didn't really watch the show as a kid, but Sonic's something of an ass himself, so it'd be interesting to see how they play against each other!

[has_a_cult]

Fancy meeting you here!

[mach_n_roll]

O hai! Ionae is in too, huh?

[has_a_cult]

Apparently. Who'da thunk I could con my way into ANOTHER game amirite?

[mach_n_roll]

Oh come now. She has everyone's best interests at heart, I'm sure.

[has_a_cult]

Ionae? No, she really doesn't.

[onemoredeath]

Hello there, I am Alec and this is not!Gackt Teijirou Takegami from the jdrama Mr. Brain which is about a neurologist that solves crimes. Takegami is a serial killer with a taste for human flesh, has slight control issues and a huge flirt.

Welcome to the game!

[trustycrowbar]

Hello there Alec! TotallynotGackt Takegami sounds... fascinating. On multiple levels. How does one play a serial killer in what's, for lack of a better word, a military encampment?

[onemoredeath]

By using distracting gifs, naturally~

Keywords are appropriate.

[trustycrowbar]

Holy hell afdsuaoitj3esexy--!

THAT THING OUGHTTA COME WITH A WARNING LABEL.

aww XD

[onemoredeath]

Well, does it help that he was singing 'Vanilla' at the time?

But in all honesty, he has been very very careful about his killing and noming. It helps that there are plenty hiding spots in this world and that people are too busy having hysterics - AKA Katniss - to pay any attention that some people have disappeared. Not that he killed a Transport, just natives of the land.

[trustycrowbar]

I guessed it would be something like that. Not that it makes it any less depraved... X3

Gordon's going to find him interesting, to be sure. Takegami has to be intelligent if he's a neurologist and a forensic analyst. The man will want to pick his brain... so to speak.

Sonic will probably avoid him like he's got rabies, though.

[onemoredeath]

You should see the lives for YFCz. He gets really naughty with poor JON on stage.

Oooh, Takegami is one of the murderers the neurologist helped figuring out, oppsy! *^.^* And the only reason why the neurologist - Tsukumo - figured it out was because his brain waves did not match up with his crazy act.

But pick away anyways! Takegami was smart enough to not only use the police's fears against him, but he managed to plan out their murders and tamper with all the evidence against him from the grave.

[trustycrowbar]

Ah, sorry, misread! ^^;

But yeah, he sounds like someone who needs an intellectual match to play with. I'm not saying that mach should necessarily be Gordon, there are probably others better suited in the game, but he's a candidate.

[onemoredeath]

No worries! I have it happened before.

--->Tsukumo

He does need one and I am hoping to throw together a plot with Danny-o's mun about it. Since cops hanging around doing nothing will end up doing something.

[trustycrowbar]

BANANA OF JUSTICEanyway thanks for the welcome! and the gifs I hope we get to play together IC in SOME capacity.

[onemoredeath]

He always has bananas and the police would bribe him with bunches of them so he can look at cases for them, although in Takegami's case, he sort of got grossed out. It was a cute show.

Me too!

[withouthumanity]

HELLO EEK. Quite a set you've got there! My name is Ophelia, and I am the head mod here as well as some jerks (Loki Laufeyson and Charles Xavier, respectively)!

This is going to be awesome. B)

[mach_n_roll]

Oh it is indeed. X3

[withouthumanity]

That icon is perfect for that reply. XD

[beingrepressed]

Wow, hi mutual friend of Ally's!

I think I was the one telling you a little about Exsilium in her plurk but hi, welcome. I'm Kate and I play Merlin, along with Jeff 'Joker' Moreau and Johanna Mason. Sonic is my childhood so I'm excited to see him, along with Gordon there.

Hope to see you around!

[mach_n_roll]

Eeee, Joker! =D Sonic needs to meet him in the worst possible way! They'd so get along! Though we may have to reinforce a few bunkers to survive the critical mass of sarcasm that would result.

[beingrepressed]

I'll definite throw him at Sonic's intro post! I only vaguely remember the tv series but I remember him being a champion snarker.

[mach_n_roll]

Which series did you watch? He's a champion snarker no matter the medium, but I'm curious.

This one's actually game'verse, but in order to cement the games' plots together I needed a lot of headcanon spackle. XD

[district7]

I actually had to double check because I couldn't remember but Sipp (Maya Fey-mun in this game) says it was SatAM!

skdjf yeah I totally understand! It helps to take from a few mediums at times.

[mach_n_roll]

I loved SatAM! I even went as far as to give this Sonic an Uncle Chuck too! (Someone had to raise him, after all.)

[theconsummateconman]

Well hello new flat mate! Welcome! Looks like it's me, you, Tails... This is going to be very interesting to say the least! Can't wait!

[mach_n_roll]

Oh man. I bet he's going to be confused. Everyone's still adjusting to the whole "talking animals thing" and now he's got 'em as roomies. XD

[twiceadays]

Hi Eek! I'm Ashe. Welcome to the game~ I play Shepard from Mass Effect, Finnick Odair from The Hunger Games, and Chloe Saunders from Darkest Powers. I hope you enjoy being here!

[mach_n_roll]

I already am! So much good CR. *_*

I wish I knew more about the last two, but I'd like to have Gordon get to know some of the ME cast so he can geek out at all the cool tech It just seems appropriate, yanno?

[twiceadays]

That's totally cool with me! /o/ I am always up for throwing Shepard around.

As for the last two, Finnick is a sad dude who was forced to kill a bunch of kids in a televised game show and then was forced to become a sex slave. Chloe is the tiniest necromancer who's pretty friendly.
