...Nick is an extremely suspicious conspiracy theorist in this world.

From a Doylistic perspective, I am incredibly suspicious. If I came across this society organically with my own politics knowledge I would be somewhat suspicious depending. In-world I doubt I would be very suspicious.

*snerk*

I came across this music video and imagined a Theo listening to it, preferably with knowledge of Goalie. His expression would probably be quite funny.

Edit: For clarification, it's from a TV show about twins, not best friends, and some of the lyrics make me think of Theo and Goalie. It's not super hilarious or anything, just kinda funny to me. It's also a little bit too cutesy for a Theo. But imagining it's a Theo and a Goalie, instead of those two people, and then listening to the lyrics ("You are the other half of me, the half I'll never be, the half that drives me crazy. You are the better half of me, the half I'll always need. We both know we're better in stereo")… it makes me laugh a bit.

Oh, plus I have a new character, Rachel – I don't think I've mentioned that in this thread yet – and I'm gonna do a writeup and add it to the main post. And TheoGoalie (somehow distinct from a regular Theo :P) is now named "Tyler".

Edit2: I have done a write-up of Rachel. I have also cleaned up the rest of my main post a bit – icons and gallery links are more accurate now, and I added a small bit to the Goalie stuff.

So... throne... How would each of your character babysit a baby/toddler for a night?

Rachel: Well. Patiently and calmly and nicely and sternly when applicable.
Theo: Well. Succeeds at not traumatizing the kids, can make them go to bed on time, is a generally good babysitter.
Tyler: Super super well. He performs the task properly, he doesn't actually kill anybody, and he does as is told. Also, he's good with the kids and he can prompt them into doing things and whatever because he's good at being strict when necessary (and he can turn on 'scary' if he feels it's necessary, but they're kids, so probably not).
Everett: Well. See approximately "Theo", though with more competence and interaction with the kids.
Evelyn: Super well and caringly. Competently.
Matt: In a fun way, probably isn't too strict, they probably like him, but he'll probably get them to bed on time.

I'm not sure about the specifics, nor if you meant in any other particular detail. Do you mean actual activities, or just how well they handle it? (It's overall "well", basically.) Also, some instances will be better and worse than others, or handle it in different ways, and for the purposes of this I assumed they were each about 16 years old.

Updated again. (Includes more character summaries, reorganized NPCs to be hidden away a bit more, added some more icon links, improved summary for Tenebre.)

And I have another world idea that I'm currently calling 'Tranquility' (I don't think that name has been taken yet?). Here's a Tumblr post / short story set in the bit I have in mind so far. Feel free to poke for details; I elided over a bunch of stuff.

I have come up with more characters and worlds. I'll update the top post with them at some point.

Jade/Guardian
Jade! Jade is seen on the Constellation here and in a thread here and she's from a world called Guardian (or, well, her original instance is). I may change the name of Guardian but the current one works okay. There is a little Tumblr snippet here of her world, very low on details, and she is also appearing in Misfits with Jarnvidr.

She's typically from Britain, moves abroad for a year (upwards) when she's about 16, is probably bullied during this time (though the severity can be minor), had childhood fantasies of being a fairy / princess and may not have left them fully behind.

Guardian is a setting that has fairies, or guardian angels, or – well, probably 'none of the above', because really they're just mysterious anthropomorphic auras of magic (which vary in how person-like they are). In Guardian itself, Jade sees these ~fairies or whatever~ throughout her childhood, tries to show them to other people (and fails by various mechanisms including but not limited to "freak accidental chance" and "fairies are apparently invisible to other people"), and then when she's 16 she moves to another country (America, usually) and doesn't leave the fairies a forwarding address (because who would). Accordingly, the fairies do not follow her (they must've been congregating around her) and therefore there are no fairies where she moves to. She is somewhat worried for her health, she is rather sad over the fairies mysteriously disappearing, and then she has a thrilling year (/s) of school, and then the fairies reappear.

Dante
I have a new character called Dante! He appears on the (new) MWF (screen-name of 'chronoteq' there). He has also found his way into wonderland.

Dante would like to know the secrets of the universe.
If he doesn't know these, he would like key insight into small parts of how the universe works.
Failing all of the above, he will pretend he has such knowledge, to me, the reader, and the other author of the thread. (He is not infallible.)

He has a template attractor to breaking the fourth wall in some way. Examples: genre-savviness, the ability to "notice gaps in his backstory" (because he is a character; alternatively "I remember too many details of my childhood, it must be fabricated"), meta-knowledge about how the universe works, ability to guess who is a major or a minor character. If he cannot have any of the above, as I say, he will probably make stuff up. (He is therefore likely to be wrong, though he'd like to retain his aura of mystery where possible and so may reduce the quantity of predictions he makes to things he's more certain about.)

He is not, I don't think, quite as annoying as that description might suggest.

He would like to come in twivamp but (1) that would require something to do in Twilight and I'd prefer something novel, and (2) I don't think "break the fourth wall" is anywhere near a witchy power, so he'd probably want to be a vampire who just… mysteriously… knows things… on account of being a vampire who has lived for quite a long time and has great perception. (Possibly not the most interesting of stories.)

General notes
My other worlds still exist! They could probably do with poking! (Tranquility has not yet been glowficced. Tenebre has a plotline that has not been explored. The Mysteries Behind Proximal have not been showcased fully in a thread.) If you have questions about worlds or characters of mine, I'd be happy to answer them, especially if it looks like there's a glaring gap in the world (could be indicative of me shying away from a complicated part of it that needs development) or you're really curious about some small (or major) detail of my various characters.

Feedback on my writing is appreciated. (If you notice any typos, feel free to PM me or get me on GHangouts. It's embarrassing to leave them in my writing.)

I am probably up for new threads! Unfortunately I am bad at plot ideas (especially in worlds that aren't mine), and I might have a hard time running a world. (I'm improving!) If you want to just have your character meet mine in Milliways, that could be fun.
