Liam || Seven of Spades.

[luceatluxtua.livejournal.com]

This is Liam. He's an apathetic, asthmatic, video gaming Librarian. He doesn't move from his office if he can help it, even though he's supposed to be practicing his fencing in order to have some sort of physical activity in his life (doctor's orders). He has a computer, a laptop, a tablet, and two extension screens, all of which he loves (Lisa, Albert, Marvin, Dora, and Bert respectively).

He does enjoy getting on people's nerves, as he doesn't really care about relationships and the such. He'll be your friend - just don't expect him to really remember birthdays or anniversaries or... anything like that. And he will love you forever if you sit down for a good round of Mario Kart with him. Or, you know, more hardcore things work too (even though it's hard to get more hardcore than Mario).

Tegan loves you, former Seven friend, and will totally be over to play Mario Cart.

Nico has been forced to learn to be technically savvy by his sister-in-law Meghana. Although it would be fun to have them get together sometime and play Halo. Think that is doable?

[luceatluxtua.livejournal.com]

Yaaaaay! But. King Boo is his character. No stealing.

Halo is definitely doable. Any video game is doable. Just. Expect pointing and laughing if he sucks.

[is-to-art.livejournal.com]

He can have King Boo, she wants Peach.

He...will amaze them both by being not entirely sucky. He has a good eye, I expect, it'll just take some time adjusting to the consoles.

[luceatluxtua.livejournal.com]

LAME. What a girly girl.

Liam will be pretty amazed if he picks up the controls quickly. He will be an immediate fan of Nico.

Sandy has a Wii. Sandy has a reading loft. Come into her arms, Liam?

Meghana and Liam have the most brilliant AIM conversations, evah. And she harps at him to get sun. (Like she should TALK.)

Christopher is there often, or use to be, checking out books and tutoring kids back in the day before Eileen. Friends? :D

[luceatluxtua.livejournal.com]

.... Sandy should come into his arms. He's too lazy to get up from his seat. Unless it's to go from his office to his couch.

They do. This is undeniable. But sun is for people who... like sun. And also for people who don't start wheezing at everything.

Sure, friends. If Christopher can put up with his forever sarcasm and bluntness.

[heart-the-art.livejournal.com]

Sandy will jump. And bounce. And stuff. :|

GDI, sun is GOOD for you. Liam. Just a half hour's worth every two weeks, like her. B|

Liam, he grew into an adult in the 90s. He knows this so well.

[luceatluxtua.livejournal.com]

Sounds great for the other two, but.

Meghana. Sun is not good for you! He burns. B| How about a half hour every other month.

Victor: linefaces forever when he has to go to the library and is faced with all your technology. Why- just whyyy.

Hadyn- might have known him as a bb spade? And still keeps in touch now?

[luceatluxtua.livejournal.com]

But. He's platonically a big fan of your girlfriend so. It's all good? \o/

That's definitely possible. If. Hadyn put forth the effort. XD

[brightbutler.livejournal.com]

Ha. Ha ha. Obviously, Olly is one of the people constantly hitting him with rolled-up newspaper and trying to drag him out for fencing training. But only because he loves him.

I don't see how he'd know Isaac, Wren or Jimmy, though. None of them are really into gaming or electronics as a whole. I suppose he might have seen Isaac from being around Spade Castle a lot, perhaps including the library.

(Maybe he gets sent out to Jimmy's farm for Fresh Air, Laddie. :|)

[luceatluxtua.livejournal.com]

Yes. This is a must. Like actual hitting. Because I can't decide whether or not Liam would be too lazy to defend himself. XD

This is the downfalls of being a hermit like Liam. ♥♥ But I'm sure somehow he'll at least run into Isaac.

Jordan comes over for coffee and Zoe bonds over books and games - though she largely sticks with mobile apps. Urania probably would have adopted him, except he seems to have had an okay family. Nonetheless, they know each other. Liam is invited to the wedding and not expected to come, due to pollen.

Avery...probably doesn't know him. Unsure about Elisha.

[luceatluxtua.livejournal.com]

Liam would love to have come to the wedding, but it's okay. He'll find someone to videotape and stream it to his laptop. And he'll leave trolly comments on any pictures online. XD

[ishineon.livejournal.com]

OF COURSE Annie knows him. She probably hides in his library to sack out. :|

That said, they were probably kids together though Annie was a lot more active as a kid- plus the snakes. She'd have left when he was 11 and returned when he was 18.

[luceatluxtua.livejournal.com]

YAY~

Also, Liam would like to say that he's allergic to anything that involves getting him and the snakes anywhere near each other. B|

[ishineon.livejournal.com]

The first time that happened, Annie would have freaked out too. After that she wouldn't have brought snakes anymore. Does she need to scrub up before dropping in?

[ag-tongued.livejournal.com]

You had Emi at apathetic.

[luceatluxtua.livejournal.com]

This could be great. ♥♥

[piquedbutler.livejournal.com]

I suspect he and Evan probably bro out sometimes, if that is acceptable.


And that Chives has Opinions. :|

That is all. o/

[luceatluxtua.livejournal.com]

That is always acceptable. ♥♥♥


He is clean, okay Chives. He is just not... tidy.

[piquedbutler.livejournal.com]

Successsss. ♥

...this is only 2% better.

[luceatluxtua.livejournal.com]

:D

.... 5%?

YOU ARE SO PUSHY

[livinginvane.livejournal.com]

Hi, darling~ Kels here.

I play Lisa, the precious-est little Heart ever to precious. She's eight years old and a very bright, cheery little girl and she is always making friends. And her parents are horrible and don't escort her anywhere, so she's almost always meeting people alone. XD She's training to be the bittiest butler, so if help is needed, Lisa will gladly be the first in line. Don't judge her by her size. :|

I've also got Amy, who was a Six of Spades until about a month ago, when some Epic Drama got her knocked back to a Two and her position as a castle guard stripped from her. She had a habit of disrespecting pretty much everyone but David (K♠) and Ethan (7♠) and Rylan (6♣), and is probably the most abrasive character I have ever played. She's pretty hated IC, not gonna lie, but she's my girl. I can't help it. XD

Silas is the new King of Diamonds (no, really, he's literally only been King for two days), but he's been in the Deck for ten and a half years. Last month he was promoted to Ten after being a Nine for two years, and then Saturday he successfully challenged to King. He's calm, quiet, and collected, usually, but he has a major problem with physical contact, which is the product of Childhood Trauma which, while I'm aware of it, has only come out to one person IC in...ten years. :| Seriously, touching him will send him into an anxiety fit and that is Not Good For Anyone. He also has expensive tastes and would prefer a well-constructed tailor-made suit to a tailored well-machine-made store-bought one any day of the week, so there's no doubt that he's glad for Charlie to be back - as long as he's 1) not adverse to working for any paying customer, Suit aside; and 2) good at his work. Silas is one of four Deck Daddies™, which means that he...kind of adopts the wayward children who don't have parent figures in their lives. Seriously, he's a Nice Guy with Major Issues that he hides well behind a Diamond Mask.

Last, but not least, is Vane here. He was previously a She and went by Grailene before leaving home. He's Greylan Harker's twin and a Deck baby, was a Heart until he was sixteen, then moved to Clubs because that's where he felt he belonged. He was gone for eight years and has only just returned within the last few days, sporting an Epic Mane of hair and a shiny new name (Erylivane OBNOXIOUS MIDDLE NAMES HERE Harker). He's twenty-six now, and while he's still physically very female, he's been trying to pass for a while and has gotten fairly good at it. Just. He sounds like Julia Roberts. :| Also, he's a fully-licensed nurse with a crazythick Polish accent.

Also. Do not be afraid, we're all awesome and that's only partially my ego speaking. ;) Feel free to join us at the Blast chat (http://blast.aim.com/join/aG91c2VvZmNhcmRzb29jLTBlbmQyMGpic0BibGFzdC5haW0uY29t) on AIM. That's where the majority of the hideous happens OOC, and it's also a useful tool for awkward-free communication. I know very well how hard and uncomfortable it can be to initiate OOC communication in a one-on-one setting, so the Blast chat is. Awesome.
