another intro post, CR AU edition

[heartsink]

So, um, hello! I'm olesia, lowercase o, and I am quietly joining your ranks with a young girl named Ruka from Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's, which is the one with the card games, motorcycles, and occasional terminator robots. If you're unfamiliar with the canon, Ruka's an eleven-year-old girl with a bucket of issues who is part of a diversely dysfunctional team of pre-adults who play card games to save the world. Everyone in the group has a range of really stupid powers given to them by a Dragon that is also a Star that is also apparently an ancient god, as can probably be told by the fact said powers relate to playing card games. The youngest in the group, Ruka talks to spirits, is something of a mild empath, and spends her free time blacking out, getting kidnapped, or exploding into sparkles. I will link this gif at every possible opportunity.

Unfortunately for her, she's coming to Exsilium as a transplant from capeandcowl, where she has been stranded for just a few days shy of four years. This means she will be coming in as a fifteen-year-old girl with an even deeper bucket of issues, mostly centering on abandonment, trust, connecting with people (what a great trait for an empath), and the deeply rooted paranoia regarding the inevitability of being hurt. Immediately upon arrival she will lie forwards and backwards about who she is and the sort of place she came from, will not mention any prior experience in the "abducted into another world to save it" routine (this will technically be her third-ish time), and will definitely not admit to recognizing some of the names being bandied around.

But since some people are just too painfully familiar and it's just a mess of emotions, she won't always be successful! So, if you play a character in the ACE ATTORNEY, DC COMICS, MARVEL COMICS, or HOMESTUCK casts, then there is a very, very high probability that I will need to talk to you in the near future. I am sorry in advance.

Aside from that, the icons are a little inaccurate--her hair was recently dyed brown and I haven't gotten around to redoing them but w/e w/e details.

Anyway!! You can reach me on aim at dammit olesia, at olesia here on dreamwidth, or at magicite elsewhere. I am very excited to be here, and I hope we can have a lot of fun together.

ETA: her thread in the intro log is here, if there are interested parties

my animes...........

but nah thats cool i think this is like the fourth time someone has shown up having known eridan from another game now so he's just gonna be like ww/e alternate universes are weird

[heartsink]

i'm so sorry for your animes

and cool she will probably just be really weird and distant around him and try not to admit to his face wweh relationships (tl;dr: he showed up when she was in a spiral of bad life decisions, they became friends, he was red/black dating gamzee, gamzee thought she was moving in on his red territory and ripped out her eye, eridan and gamzee broke up for unrelated reasons, eridan got kidnapped by different aliens, ruka continued making bad life decisions during the rescue mission, and they've been dating for a year because crippling abandonment issues), and then turn around and be scarily invested in his personal safety and continued survival, then go right back to the ice treatment.

it'll be a mess and therefore probably completely in line with everything else that ever goes on in his life.
