To help get this all started, we've got a nifty form for new players to fill out! Our CR/Plotting post will come a bit later, once we've got all the details for this month's event set up. Feel free to keep this either to one comment, or to split it in two - it's your choice.

Kalyn | Jennifer | Rule of Rose

[theunluckygirl]

Player Name: Kalyn
Pronouns: she or they
Contact: ovals Pls feel free to add me!
Interests: I'm in a bunch of different fandoms... mostly video games (Bioware, Zero Escape, Undertale, Persona, Danganronpa, Caligula Effect etc.), animu (Bungou Stray Dogs, My Hero Academia, The Promised Neverland for the most recent ones), and I'm into Xmen and Marvel for the more LA side of things and tons of books like the Belgariad, etc... My roommate recently got me super into The Untamed/Mo Dao Zu Shi and i'm dying.
Timezone: EST
Introduction: Hellooo. I like to liveplurk stuff and shitpost that's all I'm good for. I guess the most interesting fact about me is that I work as a trainer at Walt Disney World, so i'm also super into Disney news and stuff and post a lot of Behind the Scenes things on my plurk!



Character Name: Jennifer
Canon: Rule of Rose
Appearance: here!
Brief: Sole survivor of not one, but TWO huge disasters that have let her more than a little traumatized. A very kind, gentle girl who's easy to bully; she rarely tells someone no. Repressed memories of her childhood until at 19 she was forced to go back through and relive the moments as an adult to piece her broken mind back together. She's shy and polite but has difficulties forming connections with people due to her past.

I'm down for keeping TDM stuff canon if people want! Just let me know, otherwise I'm going to assume their not canon by default.

also a Content Warning: Jennifer's canon deals heavily with themes of murder, child abuse, bullying, pedophilia/sexual abuse of minors, animal abuse/death/killing, suicide, and a lot about romantic and sexual themes revolving around young girls (with each other). These won't be sprung up without warning and Jennifer herself most likely won't mention it unless prompted enough, but it's something to keep in mind.

The things that probably will be frequently mentioned, at least in the brackets/introspection parts of tags, are: animal abuse, murder, and bullying.

Seeking/Offering: I mean she just arrived so... I hate saying the "ANYTHING GOES" response bc it's so generic but really... Jennifer has a hard time believing that friendships will last. She's unfailingly polite, but sort of...distant? She believes that she should certainly enjoy the friendships while they happen, but she's resigned to the inevitable (in her mind) idea that something about her is inherently unlikeable that people find out about, dislike immensely, and it turns them on her. So she thinks every friendship is going to end in disaster or her being bullied. Pls prove her wrong.

That said also pls I encourage people to be mean to her or bully her! If your character wants a servant-type or someone to push around, make do their homework, etc. etc. Jen is your girl.

[whomthebelltolls]

Uses Jennifer's head as an armrest

Oh sorry, she didn't see you down there.

Actually, I don't have much to say, I'm not playing a very outgoing or sociable character this time, so. It will have to be a lot of incidental running into each other.

[theunluckygirl]

I'LL MAKE IT WORK... SOMEHOW. SOME WAY.

[whomthebelltolls]

Maria has literally said, out loud, "I am not here to make friends"

BUT JEN IS A WITCH AT LEAST? ... right? I think so.

Maria likes Witches more. Monsters have an uphill battle for her to warm up to them.

Re: Kalyn | Jennifer | Rule of Rose

[clerically]

Finally I can aggressively friendship at Jennifer

It’s been 87 years

[theunluckygirl]

WHO LET U IN

but omg I’m excited pls... teach to be a proper princess...

I mean the kind to probably beat someone senseless with their healing staff sure, BUT A PRINCESS NONTHELESS

[clerically]

Lissa teaching someone else to be a princess is just... yes

She’ll be able to kick ass and sip tea in no time

[corruptedgravity]

Hello Kalyn!!

My name's Mika! I just want to say I adored Chuuya and Jennifer on the TDM and I think it would be a shame if they forgot that interaction ;; I'm up for keeping it canon if you are! I'm excited you got in as well and I look forwards to playing with you!

[theunluckygirl]

Hello!! I’d love to keep their TDM thread canon, they were ridiculously adorable. Idk what I expected when I tagged him BUT IT WASNT THAT. I was like “I think Jennifer triggered some Big Brother Instinct in Chuuya or something oh no this is cute.”

Imma add u on plurk too.

But yes I really wanna keep them talking to each other!!

[corruptedgravity]

Oh they definitely were! ♥ Unexpected cute things happened and I am so glad you did tag me so we could experience that! He's a pretty decent person underneath the whole 'being mafia' thing so that was why I believe she did kinda trigger something like that in him.

Awesome!! Already went and added you back ^^

I do too!! At least she'll be able to get to know him a bit better before he goes full harpy. :>

[themidnightstar]

Ahh welcome to the game! I just wanted to say I really enjoyed our TDM thread and I can't wait to bother her with both mine in game <3

[rollfordiplomacy]

Hey girl, you look like you could use some emotional support. (Is this flirting??)

[theunluckygirl]

Emotional support and stability???

Sounds fake. 0/10

Springtide would also sound like the Aristocrat Club from her canon but like EVEN WORSE

[activatingcombatmode]

Hello Kalyn! Welcome to the game! I'm Mich and I'm playing Zack Fair from Final Fantasy VII.

I LOVE Rule of Rose. ADORE IT. It's such a trip of a game so I'm really excited to see poor Jennifer here. Maybe her life will be way better here.

Welcome! Hope you enjoy the game!!

[theunluckygirl]

I'm so nervous there are so many people who know the series aaa I hope not to disappoint!

I'm looking forward to playing her... At least no one here will get obsessed with her and kill her pets... probably...???

[activatingcombatmode]

I'm sure you'll rock! You picked a great character !!

Oh, does she have her pup??

[cspd]

kalyyyyyyyyyn

Lloyd is good at being Dad Friend and also sticking with his fam even when their big dark secrets get revealed and they're convinced that they're human garbage and he should walk away, so. I think we have GOOD TIMES ahead.

[theunluckygirl]

sam i had no idea this was you and was trying so hard to figure out who this person was talking to me like they know me.

lloyd pls?? thankfully she doesn't really have any Big Dark Secrets she's just sad and been through some shit and thinks people just. come to hate her for no reason...... its fine...

[cspd]

so the fact that this mystery character has the name i've been rocking for like two months on plurk didn't register, i take it

[fulgency]

i love rule of rose and am v excited to see a jennifer around!!

ozy is a little bossy by default, but he's not really a bully. so maybe actual friendship that lasts??? wild concepts here, i know

[theunluckygirl]

I think there's like....three of us around.... BIDING OUR TIME. i'm glad others know the series its such an obscure little game that needs more love!

LASTING FRIENDSHIP...?? SOUNDS CRAZY i'm in.

[ishisstrength]

Hello! I am Ami and I play Justine from the Dresden Files. I DONT KNOW WHO JENNIFER IS BUT SHE SEEMS ADORABLE! Justine also gets traumatizing and also has sexual themes around young girls in her history/canon. also trafficing and stuff. So i think these two might be fun to toss at each other.

[theunluckygirl]

Hello!! I think we played together back in Deerington before! (I played Mikan there from Danganronpa and Yuri from Fatal Frame!) I'm excited to see Jennifer and Justine interact... Jennifer's just really shy and tries to mind her manners at all times.

at least they can bond over some shared similar trauma probably.... clenches fist...

[firewalled]

I think Jennifer might have some weird hang ups that Rich would recognize and try to work past to be her friend, tbh? He has... not had it as hard as her, but he knows a lot about abuse and suicide, in particular.

And as a former bully, Rich might actually intimidate her quite a bit, poor thing. But he'll try to be more than his appearance suggests!

[onlyangelshavewings]

I kept meaning to tag you on the TDM and then getting busy! I LOVE Rule of Rose, and seeing a Jennifer blew my mind. Regina here is a very sweet lady and would be super nice to her, and sympathetic about what she's been through, if you're interested in some actually wholesome CR!

(I do also play the SQUIP here, who would be the complete opposite, if you prefer that...)
