( L - Z )

Name: Ace Hearts

Story: Long Live the Queen

Parents: Queen Of Hearts

Face claim: Curran Walters

Love interest: Evie

Summary: Contrary to popular belief, Ace Hearts was perfectly content with being his sister’s left hand man.  He'd wanted to help her run the isle since long before she’d ever dreamt of doing such a thing.  Being her enforcer, her advisor, her defender in her reign was all he’d ever wanted.  There shouldn’t have been any problem.  Only, there was.  Ace wanted more.  Specifically, he wanted a certain blue haired princess who’d devoted herself to good and to saving the children of the Isle.  But as the changing tides in Auradon start to reflect back onto the Isle, Ace finds he might have to make a choice. 

Name: Princess Ada

Story: Untitled

Parents: Adam

Face claim: Sadie Soverall

Summary: Auradon didn’t hold much value for second born royals, least of all girls.  Princess Adelaide knew that her life had been planned from the day she was born; that she would spend her childhood learning to be a proper princess, attend high school at Auradon Prep, and within a year of her eighteenth birthday she would be married to Chad Charming.  She had accepted it all.  Her lessons were boring but endurable, she had wonderful friends at Auradon Prep, and Chad was her best friend.  She knew better than to expect anything more out of life.

But when Ben brings a group of kids over from the Isle, Ada finds herself wondering if there isn’t a life for her beyond the borders of Auradon; a life where she can make her own path instead of following the one that was mapped out for her.  A path that leads her right to a certain pirate with an accent to die for, and to a discovery about herself that may change the future of the entire kingdom of Auradon.

Name: Princess Addie

Story: Untitled

Parents: Belle & Adam

Face claim: Liana Liberato

Name: Alina Romanova

Story: Untitled

Parents: Anastasia Romanov & Dimitri

Face claim: Maude Apatow

Name: Anissa Radcliffe

Story: Ties That Bind

Parents: Anita & Roger Radcliffe

Face claim: Maia Mitchell

Love Interest: Ben; Aziz

Summary: Anissa Radcliffe had a plan.  Well, Anissa, Sloane, and Kyra had a plan to fix the horrific oversights surrounding the isle, but Anissa had smaller, more achievable plans.  Keep her siblings in line.  Maintain perfect grades and excel in her many extracurriculars.  Get Carlos De Vil off the isle come hell or high water.  Although his mother had lost her mind, Cruella De Vil had once been a dear friend and mentor to Anissa’s own mother, and in another world, she and Carlos may have grown up as family.  As Ben’s coronation approaches, several of her plans are falling into place, but no matter what, Anissa will not lose sight of the most important plan of all: protect Carlos De Vil.  From the isle.  From his mother.  From Auradon.  From himself.

Name: Arden Of DunBroch

Story: A Change Of Fate

Parents: Merida

Face claim:  Hailee Steinfeld

Name: Atalia of Atlantica

Story: Untitled

Parents: Attina

Face claim: Madelyn Cline

Name: Avalon Le Fay

Story: King and Lionheart

AO3 | FFNet | Wattpad

Parents: Merlin & Morgana Le Fay

Face claim:  Emma Dumont

Love interest: Jay; eventual Jay & Harry

Summary: Nimue, daughter of Arthur and Gwen, and Avalon Le Fay, daughter or Merlin and Morgana, had always been thick as thieves, and had always been ready to declare war on Auradon.  Ever since the formation of the Isle, King Adam and the Fairy Godmother had been insisting that Morgana was still a villain, and therefore belonged on the Isle, and once Avalon was born, she agreed–so long as her daughter could stay in Camelot.  When Arthur was killed barely a year later, Merlin and Gwen partnered up to raise their daughters and run a kingdom, until the girls would be old enough to do so themselves.  Of course Auradon never trusted the one kingdom that refused to unite, and insisted that the girls be sent to Auradon prep, and so they went–reluctant as could be.  Everything was fine, mostly–the other princesses looked down on Nimue’s love of swordfighting, and Avalon was never seen as anything but a villain kid, but they still had each other.  They could tolerate it all, biding their time.  But at sixteen years of age, everything they’d ever planned gets thrown for a loop when it’s declared that four children from the Isle would be moving to Auradon.

Nimue belongs to @seaweedhufflepuffocs​

Name: Beatrice

Story: Ever Just As Sure (As The Sun Will Rise)

Parents: The Beast & The Enchantress

Faceclaim: Taissa Farmiga

Summary: If King Adam had known the price of banishing magic from Auradon, he might have reconsidered.  But the former Beast was a stubborn man who refused to heed any warnings, and it had backfired.  He hadn’t known that banishing all magic would rip the last remains of the Enchantress’ curse from his veins, hadn’t known that the magic would redirect itself into the Enchantress, and he certainly hadn’t known that it would lead to the immediate birth of his firstborn child.  But it had.  And while he had no qualms about sending the Enchantress to the Isle, the queen had refused to send her stepdaughter, and so Princess Beatrice had been raised in Auradon alongside her younger brother.  She knew the truth about her birth, and she knew that her father hated her with every fibre of his being, but she didn’t care.  What she did care about was Ben’s decision to bring children from the Isle to Auradon - children that could have been her, had Belle not stepped in - and proving to her father, once and for all, that her generation is something more than just the children of heroes and villains, that they can be their own people and make their own choices.  And maybe the children of the four baddest villains are the perfect people to help her with that plan.

Name: Bessie Sawyer

Story: Untitled

Parents: Becky Thatcher & Tom Sawyer

Face claim:  Saorise Ronan

Name: Blossom

Story: Faith, Trust (And A Little Pixie Dust)

Parents: N/A

Faceclaim:  Bailee Madison

Love Interest: Ben

Summary: When a baby laughs for the first time, a new fairy is born.  When Prince Benjamin Florian laughed for the first time, Blossom was born.  From that day forth, the prince and his fairy were inseparable. The citizens of Auradon always said that their rulers had given them both a prince and a princess when Ben was born, and Blossom was beloved by the kingdom.  But when Ben brings four villain children to Auradon, Blossom is afraid.  Afraid for her kingdom, afraid for her safety, and afraid for her prince.  She is Ben’s fairy, she has to protect him at all costs; she has to do whatever it takes to make sure that Ben’s first action as king is a success, even if it means saving the VKs from themselves.  Even if it means breaking her own heart.

Name: Callista Gainey

Story: Untitled

Parents: Cassandra

Face claim: Lulu Antariksa 

Name: Chessy Of Arendelle

Story: All Is Found

Parents: Redacted / Anna & Kristoff

Face claim: Mackenzie Foy

Love Interest: Ben

Summary: Chessy of Arendelle had never once doubted how loved she was.  She knew how much her parents loved her, the newborn infant they’d found miraculously still alive in the snow outside of their castle.  They’d chosen her, had brought her home and raised her as their own, the crown princess of Arendelle.  Her aunt loved her, her kingdom loved her, and her best friend, Crown Prince Ben of Auradon loved her.  That was enough for her.  That was more than enough for her.  But… the mystery.  Not knowing who she was, where she came from.  The answers that seemed to slip further out of reach every time she thought she’d come close to understanding.  Chessy didn’t need a family that hadn’t wanted her, she didn’t need to be anyone more than who she already was.  But she did need to know who she could have been.

Name: Chiara Potts

Story: Certain As The Sun (Rising In The East)

Parents: Chip Potts & Redacted

Faceclaim:  Danielle Rose Russell

Love Interest: Ben & Evie

Summary: Chiara Potts is as far from a princess as you can get - well, unless you ask Cinderella.  She’s the daughter of a servant, and the granddaughter of a servant.  And she herself is a servant.  Granted, they don’t call her that, but Chiara is only the latest in the long line of Potts’ to serve the royal family.  Still, despite being his chief of staff and majordomo, Ben is her best friend.  And yes, maybe her job is the reason that they’re inseparable, but they still are.  So of course, Chiara is the first person to know about his plans to bring Villain Kids to Auradon.  She’s also the first person to defend his idea, and the person that he asks to help them settle in.  But when Chiara overhears their plans, she has to decide - will she try to change their minds and prove Ben right to all of Auradon, or will she have to go against him - and what will that cost her?

Name: Chryseis

Story: We Could Be Immortals (Just Not For Long)

Parents: Poseison

Faceclaim:  Holland Roden

Summary: Poseidon isn’t a hero.  He’s a god, yes, but not a hero.  His granddaughter Ariel is a hero, his nephew Hercules is a hero, but Poseidon is not a hero.  So no one is really sure why his youngest daughter has just started at Auradon Prep, only days after Ben announced the impending arrival of four villain kids.  But Chryseis knows.  Mal, daughter of Maleficent, is also the daughter of Hades, and the Olympians are afraid.  And Chryseis, only sixteen and still learning to be a goddess, is the only person who can find out her intentions, the only person who can stop her from potentially destroying Olympus.

Name: Cian Hearts

Story: Lavender Haze

Parents: Queen Of Hearts

Face claim: Gavin Leatherwood

Love Interest: Violet Kingsleigh

Summary: Cian Hearts didn’t hate Auradon.  No, to hate Auradon would suggest that he cared, and he didn’t.  He cared about surviving, about maintaining his mother’s territory and protecting his people, not about Auradon.  Nor, to his mother’s displeasure, about Wonderland.  Neither would help him live to see another day, so neither warranted a second thought on his part.  Or so he believed, until he received an invitation – a royal summons, if you asked him – to attend Auradon Prep along with four others from the isle.  With no real say in the matter, Cian packs up his life and crosses the barrier, determined to keep his head down – and attached to his neck – until Prince Ben gave up on his foolish plan.  Unfortunately, the king-to-be forgot to mention that they would be starting school with one more transfer student: Violet Kingsleigh, heir to Wonderland and daughter of his mother’s sworn nemesis.

Name: Cosette Bellefleur

Series: Lust For Life

Story: Darling, Darling; Doll Face; Cherry

Parents: Claudette Bellefleur

Face claim: Lily Rose Depp

Love Interest: Gaston; Prince Ben; Prince Chad; Henry Turner

Summary: On the Isle Of The Lost, survival was a simple matter of strength and power. Cosette Bellefleur knew that she would never have the strength, so instead she focused on the power. Sharpening her own skillset, Cosette earned herself the protection of the strongest of the strong: Gaston. And while she may have had her flirtations and her flings, at the end of the day, Cosette belonged to Gaston, and his strength belonged to her. It was the perfect system.

But when Prince Ben, soon to be King Ben, makes his first royal proclamation, everything changes. In a fit of what he undoubtedly considered fairytale-level kindness, five children of villains would be brought to Auradon, and Cosette would be one of them. It made sense, of course, but that didn’t make it any less unpleasant for her. Ripped away from her friends and lovers, from her home, and from her protector, Cosette would have no one to rely on but Mal’s crew, and there was certainly no lost love there.

But when her unwilling allies need a way to get close to the prince, Cosette may just find a way to ensure their loyalty and secure herself a new protector all in one fell swoop.

Name: Eliane

Story: Into The Unknown

Parents: Redacted

Face claim: Abigail Cowen

Love Interest: Harry Hook

Name: Elise Charming

Story: Enchanted

Parents: Prince Charming & Cinderella

Face claim:  Sabrina Carpenter

Love interest: Evie; Ben & Evie

Summary: Princess Elizabeth Victoria Isabelle Katherine Grace Regina Alexandria James – more affectionately known as Elise Charming – had been raised on one simple lesson.  Have courage and be kind.  And for sixteen years, she had lived by those words.  Alongside her twin brother Chad and their best friends Ben and Audrey, Elise had been picture perfect royalty. The four of them were perfectly sweet, perfectly charming, perfectly… well, perfectly perfect.  But when Ben, weeks away from his coronation, decides to bring over four Villain Kids from the Isle of the Lost, their perfect group falls apart.  Elise is sure that they can get through it, that they can hold their heads high and rebuild their perfect friendship, and that everything will be okay.  And then the Villain Kids arrive in Auradon, and the most beautiful girl in the world steps out of the limousine.

Name: Evander Grimhilde

Story: Untitled

Parents: Evil Queen & King Richard

Face claim:  Taylor Zakhar Perez

Love interest: Topher Charming

Summary: Evander Grimhilde was highly aware of the fact that his life was not normal, even for the isle of the lost.  Mostly, he knew, it was because he was the first child born on the Isle.  The blueprint, the model, the test subject.  He was born before the villains had the idea to use their children as soldiers to defend their turf, before they decided that survival and gaining power was more important than planning for getting off the Isle.  No, where his kids — and they were; every child on the Isle was his.  His to protect, his to raise, his to love the way their parents never were — were raised to be their parents’ henchmen, Evander was raised to be king.  He learned history and finances, potions alongside politics, everything there was to know about the United Kingdom of Auradon and every kingdom within it.  Evander was as qualified to be a king as anyone could hope to be, except for one teensy tiny little detail: he still lived on the Isle.

At least until Prince Ben turned 16 and made his very first proclamation as king — to bring five children from the Isle to Auradon.  His sister, her crew, and Evander himself.  With his kingdom finally within reach, Evander’s destiny is finally within his reach.  The only problem is that Evander isn’t actually sure if he wants his destiny; especially once he meets Topher Charming.

Name: Finley Rider

Story: Stolen Heart

Parents: Rapunzel and Flynn Rider

Face claim: Virginia Gardner

Love interest: past Ben; Jay; eventual Ben & Jay

Summary: Finley Rider – Princess Finley Fitzherbert – was all set to live a fairytale life.  She was the heir to the throne of Corona, her parents’ pride and joy, and betrothed to her best friend, Prince Benjamin.  But when a ten year old Finley gets bored at a museum gala and decides to see how many artifacts she can lift without getting noticed, everything changes. When the Beast King catches her stealing Jafar’s staff, he loses his temper.  The child is sent to the Isle, Corona breaks ties with Auradon, and Ben loses his best friend.  

On her first day on the Isle, Finley gets caught stealing a bracelet off of Lady Tremaine.  But rather than tell the woman, the boy introduces himself as Jay, son of Jafar, and offers Finley a partnership.  Their alliance soon grows into a friendship, and Jay introduces Finley to the other VKs, bringing her into their team.  The five of them rule the island with ease, causing trouble wherever they go.  It isn’t perfect, but Finley has learned to move on from Corona, and from Auradon.  So of course, that’s when Prince Ben makes his first royal proclamation; bringing children of the Isle to Auradon.  The daughter of Maleficent, the son of Jafar, the daughter of the Evil Queen, and the son of Cruella De Vil.  And the princess of Corona.

Name: Fraser Fitzherbret / Fitz Rider

Story: Stolen Heart

Parents: Rapunzel and Flynn Rider

Face claim: Matt Cornett

Love interest: Harry Hook; TBD

Name: Gloria Gothel

Story: Mother Knows Best

Parents: Mother Gothel

Face claim: Melissa Barrera

Summary: Gloria Gothel didn’t care about politics.  Not on the isle, not in Auradon.  She didn’t care about running the biggest turf, about having the strongest crew, she only cared about survival.  She had gotten it wrong once, had made the rookie mistake of getting attached to other people, of caring about something beyond covering her own ass, but it was a mistake that she would never make again.  But when an invitation comes for her to go to Auradon along with Maleficent’s daughter and her crew, Gloria finds herself at a crossroads.  Once again she has a choice to make, between looking out for her own self interest or taking care of the family she’d never meant to find.

Name: Griffin

Story: Untitled

Parents: Grumpy

Face claim: Joshua Bassett

Name: Halle Finn

Story: Untitled

Parents: Huckleberry Finn

Face claim: Kathryn Newton

Name: Hannah Westergaard

Story: Don’t Blame Me

Parents: Hans Westergaard

Face claim: Kat McNamara

Summary: As far as children of the Isle went, Hannah Westergaard was pretty standard.  Abusive father, no known mother, and no special talents of abilities whatsoever.  As much as she hates to admit it, she’s boring by the Isle’s standards, so why on earth is Prince Ben inviting her to Auradon?  And more importantly, why does it seem like maybe she isn’t quite as boring as she’s been lead to believe?

Name: Harley Hook

Story: Lost Girl

Parents: Captain Hook

Face claim:  India Eisley

Love interest: Jay; possible endgame Jay & Gil

Summary: Harley Hook was a pirate, through and through.  Always at her brother’s side, always with Uma and the crew, always near her beloved Gil, Harley Hook was a pirate.  And as a pirate, she absolutely hated Mal’s gang.  They thought that they were so much better than anyone, just because of Mal’s mom - big whoop, it’s not like Maleficent could even use magic on the Isle.  So yeah, Harley hated the VKs, her loyalty was to the crew, and she was never seen away from Harry or Gil.  And then the princeling decides to bring children of some of the worst villains to Auradon: Mal, Evie, Jay, Carlos.  And Harley.  Harley couldn’t be more furious at being taken away from her crew, or at being sent to Auradon, or at being forced to work with the VKs to get Fairy Godmother’s wand.  But she knows that if she wants to get back to the Isle, back to her family, she needs that barrier down as much as they do.  She’s just not sure that they can cooperate long enough for that.

Name: Harmony Of Atlantica

Story: Carved Out Of The Sea

Parents: Ariel & Prince Eric

Face claim:  Kaya Scodelario

Love interest: Harry Hook

Summary: Princess Harmony was a youngest child’s youngest child, she knew that she would never be anything special.  Her mom was Ariel, and her sister Melody had united their parents’ kingdoms.  Harmony was nothing in comparison.  So Harmony went on her own adventures, swimming as far as she could and discovering the wonders of the world outside of Atlantis.  She’d heard of the Isle of the Lost of course, everyone had, but she never planned on finding it.  She never planned on swimming through the barrier, or on finding out that she would no longer be able to turn into a mermaid when she did, or on never being able to swim back across.  And so, Harmony grew up on the Isle along with the children of the villains.  She befriended pirates and princesses and everything in between, and she almost forgot about life in Atlantis.  And then the future king summons four of the children of the Isle to Auradon, and Harmony knows that she has to seize her only chance at returning to her home, even if it means leaving behind her partner - in crime and in love - Harry Hook.

Name: Hayden

Story: Dying Is An Art

Parents: Hades & Maleficent

Face claim: Jenny Boyd

Summary: Hayden was raised by Hades, knowing full well who her mother - and sister - was.  But Mal doesn’t know about her.  So for most of her life, Hayden hid.  She hid away in her dad’s cave and had very few friends.  And then Prince Ben summons five Villain Kids to Auradon - the son of Jafar, the son of Cruella De Vil, the daughter of the Evil Queen, the daughter of Maleficent, and the daughter of Hades.  But only Hayden knows the truth.  And now she has to keep her secret, and try to stop her sister and her friends from stealing the wand, but she might have to choose between her two missions.

Name: Helena

Story: Long Live the Queen

Parents: Hades & Persephone

Face claim:  Teagan Croft

Love interest: Queenie Hearts

Summary:  Living on the Isle wasn’t easy, but there was something particularly difficult about it for a goddess.  Her dad couldn’t be kept on the Isle–they’d tried, no one died anymore, he was allowed to return to the Underworld. But when Helena was born, she was cast away to join the rest of the Villains and their children, forced to fend for herself.  Being a goddess had its advantages too, she was able to survive and rise up with no problem.  Soon she was the right hand to the newest queen, and hell would freeze before she let anyone take that away from them.

Name: Hero

Parents: Hercules & Megara

Face claim: Rachel Zegler

Name: Honey La Bouff

Story: Impossible Dreams

AO3 | Wattpad

Parents: Lottie LaBouff

Face claim: Meg Donnelly

Love interest: Ben & Chad

Summary: As if being raised by a single mother, with a father who passed away before she was born, didn’t make her enough of an oddity, Honey La Bouff was one of the only students at Auradon Prep who wasn’t the child of a prince, princess, or hero.  But despite being looked down on by most of the student body, Honey was best friends with the two most popular boys in school; Prince Ben and Chad Charming.  Honey and Chad had always seen it as their responsibility to look out for their more naïve best friend, and when Ben decides to bring five Villain Kids to Auradon – a decision that both Honey and Chad had been pushing for since they were still in their single digits – they know they’ll have their work cut out for them.  But, all things considered, the VKs seem to be adapting well, and Honey is excited to have them in Auradon.  Or she was, until she takes an extremely suspicious cookie away from Ben and finds herself the victim of a long since forbidden magical roofie.

Summary:  By all rights, Princess Isabelle should be next in line for the throne of Auradon.  She was the firstborn child of the king, after all, and much more politically minded than her twin brother.  But her father, beast that he was, had no intention of ever letting her take her rightful place as queen.  But Belle is her mother’s daughter, and has no intentions of giving up, she just needs a new plan.  And then Ben decides to bring children of the Isle to Auradon, and Isabelle finds herself in the perfect position to get exactly what she’s always wanted.  If only she can go through with it.

WHAT HAD STARTED AS A NORMAL MORNING shifts into what micah would call one of the most uncomfortable moments in his lifetime . perhaps it would be easier had ada not been perched upon his shoulders and using his hair as a steering wheel , perhaps it would be better had they not run into one another at all – but the truth is ? he’s relieved to see arden in front of him , but also incredibly off his footing . ‘ i uh … ‘ is he supposed to introduce her to the daughter that she’d left behind ? he’s not sure , but before he can make a decision on what to say , he blurts out , ‘ sorry - is this as awkward for you , as it is for me ? ‘

Happy Asian and Pacific Islander heritage month to me and the women I write: Ada Wong, Sophie Hartley, Ophelie Asherson Inoa and Iolana Arden

[burned-lariat]

Hopefully Heather is just a copy cat killer

With how they explained her ability to get in and out of SR, and the fact that there has been absolutely no hinting at anything Hook beyond "oh let's get security just in case," something tells me they've rewritten it already to make sure it's Heather after all.

I wish it was ADA Arden instead. At least it would've made some sense and there wouldn't be any rewriting...😐

[hvndredbattles]

𝑪𝑯𝑨𝑹𝑨𝑪𝑻𝑬𝑹 𝑶𝑼𝑻𝑳𝑰𝑵𝑬.

Richie Arden.

all questions answered with richie in his arc 1 verse (aka before the loss of his team (singh, yves, harris, and elis) and his subsequent assumed KIA status) in mind, and under the assumption that his noteworthy interpersonal relationships are only those of his "canon"

origins + family.

full name: Richard Edmund Arden IV

date of birth: 22 april

age: mid to late 30s is generally where he lands in threads (his post-military arc is more early 40s vibes i think)

social class: upper. old family money. gentry kid on both sides. he's not hiding it, but he's also not flaunting it, either, so many who don't know what they're looking for or looking at will miss it entirely

parents: The Duke of Hereford, and Baron Alvanley, [former] Colonel Richard Pepper Arden III, and Her Grace, the Duchess Katherine Arden

siblings: Margaret, married name Thomas, his younger sister by five years. it may not be immediately apparent, but he loves her dearly, and would kill for her without question. (worth mentioning here that Margaret has two children, Ada and Patrick, who Richie dotes on as though they are his own. he's as protective of them as he is his sister, if not moreso)

physical + appearance.

height: 6'5'' (196 cm)

weight: 105 kg, thereabouts / 16.5 stone / around 230 lbs

distinguishing features: the "glasgow grin" facial scarring on the right side of his mouth/face is probably one of the first things noticed, after his height/stature

hair color: sandy blond

eye color: blue

what do they consider their best feature?: mmmm is it too much of a cop-out to say his body? this is under physical/appearance but technically best feature could also be like, synonymous with best trait? in any case, Richie has worked very hard to maintain his physique, and knows just how appealing he looks to a not insignificant number of people. he cuts quite a figure, and he's proud of it

style of dress/typical outfit(s): most typically found in whatever uniform is appropriate for the day. CPU trousers (example, example) and combat shirts (example) are common staples of his day-to-day

jewelry? tattoos? piercings?: while he does technically own a few rings (like a signet ring or something) he never wears them. no piercings, but he does have a few tattoos. the only tattoo i'm certain of is the black and white compass he has inked on his right forearm, based on his lucky compass... he might be cheesy enough to have Ada's birthdate on him somewhere, but i'm not sure. he might also have the SAS motto (who dares wins / qui audet adipiscitur) on him somewhere (thanks young drunk self -insert eyeroll here-)

do they work out/exercise?: yes, daily and at length. a large part of any day not on deployment for any operator is keeping sharp enough to deploy at a moment's notice, and Richie is no exception

belief +  intellect.

level of self esteem: very self-confident. i'd say from the outside, he can still regularly seem cocksure, even if he's not as loud about his self-confidence as he was when he was younger. (he was definitely cocky as a young man, but has mellowed into a more subtle confidence as he's aged)

known languages: (values based on this post / system): English (native), BSL (B2), Russian (B2), French (B1), Burmese (A2), Arabic (A2); He can manage street signs/basic directions in a few other languages based on deployments

gifts/talents: he has a knack for tracking and navigation, which is put to good use in his work

how do they deal with stress?: he typically smokes, runs, or tracks down the nearest punching bag, depending on location and/or time constraints

what do they do when upset?: it depends on the sort of upset. generally, he's prone to bottling it up and shutting down/shutting out others, though there's still evidence of the upset in the way he might grow pricklier and/or colder. i'd say there are two sides to any upset on Richie: there's the a louder, brasher version, and a quieter, more isolating one. there isn't a hard science to determining which version of upset you'll get from him, unfortunately. sometimes his temper is more visible, and other times the hurt flashes briefly before it's smothered by alarming (forced. an act. he's shoved his feelings down and away.) mildness.

do they believe in happy endings?: no

how do they feel about asking for help?: it depends on the kind of help he needs, and who his options are. he is far less willing to seek out personal help, and would rather the impersonal care of medical professionals and the like over colleagues or friends or family getting involved, for instance

optimist or pessimist: pessimist with the occasional optimistic lean, particularly [optimistic] when it comes to putting his trust in his team

extrovert or introvert: introvert. not a naturally social guy. which is actually really ironic because when he was younger he did very much enjoy going out or playing sports with his mates. somewhere along the way he just stopped seeking that out. maybe he stopped needing it? or maybe he'd never needed it and stopped wanting it, or decided somewhere along the way that it wasn't worth the effort anymore

leader or follower: leader (he has all the makings of being a leader of higher calibre than a lieutenant, he just really doesn't want the job)

makes decisions based mostly on emotions, or on logic?: logic. not a big feelings guy in general

spontaneous or planner: planner, though few plans survive contact with the enemy; he knows how to be spontaneous and adaptable

organized or messy: organized. he dislikes mess, though i'm not sure to what depth/extent

worrier or carefree: mmmm somewhere in the middle? can't spend your whole life stressing, but some fear/concern is healthy, he thinks

artistic?: no

mathematical?: quite. a not-insignificant portion of his job involves maths in one way or another, and he's got a knack for it, even if he wouldn't say as much

sex + intimacy.

current marital/relationship/sexual status: single, never been in a relationship more serious than a fuckbuddy, and sleeping around when he can/has the urge

sexual orientation (is it something they question or a secret): bi/pan, though he's not the labeling sort. it's never been something he questioned, and not something he ever put much care into keeping secret, in the sense that he was never trying to hide himself. he just also wasn't keen on the fallout of getting caught. he was aware of the rampant homophobia in many of the spheres in which he existed, and was careful, though still managed to get caught and expelled from two different boarding schools in his teen years for same-sex relations. in the military he flew just under the radar enough to not jeopardize his career, but he was never in denial about his interest in men, and never actively avoided pursuing male interests where they cropped up. it's largely been something he doesn't talk about because he's a private man

views on sex (one night stands, promiscuity, etc): what you're doing on your own time is none of his business, and vice versa. he's decidedly not the monogamous relationship type, or the relationship type at all, and gladly and regularly engages in casual, no-strings sex with whomever strikes his fancy

ever been in love?: no

do they fall in love easily?: no

do they desire marriage and/or children in their future?: absolutely not. he is very unlikely to marry for reasons outside of a relationship, and wholly uninterested in entering into a relationship, and thus wants nothing to do with marriage. he's actually sterile (both a matter of biology and procedure; he has always been sterile, and he had a vasectomy early in adulthood (like 18 or 19), because he didn't know he was sterile), though he's never had any interest in children

thoughts on public displays of affection?: no strong feelings either way

how do they show affection/love to their partner?: most often it would be gift giving and quality time

relationships.

social habits (popular, loner, some close friends, makes friends and then quickly drops them): i think his i-don't-give-a-shit, devil-may-care attitude would've roped him quite a bit of interest growing up, especially in an all-boys boarding school, and even through his early military career. so popular, for a long while too, actually. he was loud and proud and was far more social before he commissioned. he probably wasn't even interested in commissioning until he'd quieted. he was more of a small-group-of-friends kind of guy after that, though he could still be convinced, on occasion, to go out with people outside of that circle. and then his small group of friends (his team) didn't stick by him after he'd been through hell and back, and Richie became a proper loner. he's been much slower to trust and open up since then, though he's attached to his new team, much as he hadn't been expecting it

how do they treat others (politely, rudely, keep at distance, etc)?: kept at a distance. these days, it generally takes time and consistency for him to start warming up to someone. i'd say in general interactions with unknowns, he's succinct. he's not (generally speaking) intentionally brusque, though he may come across that way

confront or avoid conflict?: confront conflict, for better or worse

secrets.

dreams: mmmm ambiguity my beloathed. he doesn't... really have any personal ambitions. he might like to teach his niece and nephew how to drive some day? i think that's about the extent of it. and as for the sleep kind of dreams... mostly work-related. the ones he tends to remember are the nightmares, and those feature death or trauma

greatest fears: trauma triggers (: otherwise... god would he hate to outlive his sister and/or her kids. oh to that extent, maybe conflict making it back to the UK? he needs home to be Safe for them

biggest regret: dslfhsdhfs it might be not talking his sister out of marrying Bill. (he hates Bill; Bill hates him right back) but then he wouldn't have Ada and Patrick running around, so maybe he'll settle for convincing her to divorce the weasel-y little bastard instead

what they most want to change about their current life?: i don't know that there's anything that he does want to change. he's quite content with his life, actually. though he does periodically wish he could be in two places at once, because he'd like to see more of his niece and nephew

likes + dislikes.

hobbies: his lowest effort hobby is tinkering with his motorcycle. he also enjoys rugby, running, hiking, and hunting, the lattermost of which he does with his father on occasion. occasionally he can be coaxed into an evening poker night, and he does enjoy those

indoors or outdoors?: outdoors

favorite color: doesn't have one

favorite smell: on himself? some fresh and woodsy, but not overpowering. if he were to pick a scent for his home or office? honey and lemon tea, or the closest combination of scents to mimic walking through the woods of his family's estate

favorite and least favorite food: favorite, a fatty steak with a side of roasted potatoes and buttered vegetables. least favorite... I said mystery meat the last time this question came up in something, I think that might still hold true

coffee or tea?: tea, naturally

favorite type of weather: warm, with light clouds

favorite form of entertainment: the dumb shit that enlisted soldiers get up to that he has to pretend he hates as he breaks it up. out of like, traditional entertainment formats? televised sporting, maybe?

how do they feel about traveling?: god, given his job, he better at least tolerate it. jokes aside, he doesn't mind it. he enjoys the snatches of downtime he gets in foreign places. he wouldn't mind if traveling came without all that time sitting on his ass in whatever transport, though

what sort of gifts do they like?: i. don't know? i don't think he gets a lot of gifts, in any case, so i'm not sure he fully knows either. expensive alcohol is always a safe bet, but it's not very personal, even if you do happen to know his drink preferences

drugs + alcohol.

thoughts on drugs and alcohol: heavily disapproving of drugs, very much in a "why the fuck are you throwing your life away for a high" kind of way. not a heavy drinker, but a drinker nonetheless. more of a social drinker than anything

do they smoke? If so, do they want to quit?: yes he smokes, no he has no interest in quitting. he considers it to be one of his less dangerous indulgences in life

have they ever tried other drugs (which, what happened, consequences): i have been toying with the idea of making this idea canon, in which case he'd have "tried" a stimulant, and there was likely a rough crash once all was said and done; anyone who knew what he'd done wouldn't say anything about it, though, and anyone who didn't know would just assume he'd crashed from the adrenaline and stress. he's never engaged in, nor would he engage in, recreational drug use

do they have any addictions?: barring the smoking? no

other details.

most important/defining event in life to date: i would say his enlistment? his military service has defined the entirety of his adult life, so it feels apt

typical Saturday night: an actual Saturday? it's probably spent either on base or in the middle of fuckoff nowhere on deployment. but a proper night off? he might go out to a bar — he'll definitely go out if he's seeking sex, which does happen with regularity on his nights off

what is home like (messy, neat, sparse): sparse. this is a man who's spent his entire adult life in the military, ready to pack up and move at a moment's notice. i waffle sometimes on if he even has off-base accommodations at all; if he does, he's not the one furnishing them. most of what he owns is work-related in some fashion or another. he has some pictures and trinkets from deployments, a few civilian outfits, but that's about all by way of personal effects. it all easily fits in a single duffel bag

pets? if not, do they want any?: no and no. he doesn't mind cats or dogs, but he has little interest in taking one on, even if he could — and he most assuredly cannot, given the frequency with which he isn't even in the country

can they hold their breath for a long time?: yes

do they know how to swim?: yes. he learned to swim as a boy, which involved occasional summer trips to lakes and even a short bout on a swim team. he of course was expected to pass certain swimming tests as part of his military qualifications, and is SCUBA certified

can they cook (if so, how well and do they enjoy it)?: not anything more advanced than following whatever preparation instructions come on a can, or a box of pasta, or a frozen package of vegetables. he never learned — never felt the need to

[fallbeforethefight]

I tried to help when it came to Arden, and gave advice about Ada. I freaking love Jade. I only feel a tiny twinge if I think about Kirsty. But Grace? This feeling... sucks. And I don't understand why I feel like this. But it doesn't feel good at all.

#aFactADay2021

#253: a palindrome is a word, phrase, time, number, whatever, that reads exactly the same when the order of characters is reversed. for example, thirty-one past one in the afternoon, ie 13:31, is palindromic. "racecar" is palindromic. the first words ever said by man was palindromic (when Adam introduced himself to Eve, he said "Madam in Wden, i'm Adam"). one of the most philosophical questions in the world is a palindrome (do geese see god?). the names Hannah, Ava, Anna, Eve, Bob and Otto are all palindromic, as is the former PM of Cambodia, Lon Nol, and a japanese manga writer, Nisio Isin.

Only four pokemon are palidromes though - eevee, girafarig, ho-oh, and alomomola. girafarig is actually intentionally palindromic though - the original design had the back end being identical to the front but with a colour swap.

back to the name thing:

"Dennis, Nell, Edna, Leon, Nedra, Anita, Rolf, Nora, Alice, Carol, Leo, Jane, Reed, Dena, Dale, Basil, Rae, Penny, Lana, Dave, Denny, Lena, Ida, Bernadette, Ben, Ray, Lila, Nina, Jo, Ira, Mara, Sara, Mario, Jan, Ina, Lily, Arne, Bette, Dan, Reba, Diane, Lynn, Ed, Eva, Dana, Lynne, Pearl, Isabel, Ada, Ned, Dee, Rena, Joel, Lora, Cecil, Aaron, Flora, Tina, Arden, Noel, and Ellen sinned." is a palindrome. im not sure who initially came up with that, but wow you did some work xD

i also found this epic (semi-)palindromic poem!

Aibohphobia is the fear of palindromes

Semordnilaps are words that spell other words when backwards, such as drawer/reward and stressed/desserts. anyone whos watched cloudy with a chance of meatballs (i think?) will know that live spelt backwards is evil, and lived is devil.

the longest palindrome in the english dictionary is "Tattarrattat", as in the sound when you knock a door. i also found Abba in the dictionary, as in the 70s band that made, and i quote from the oxford dictionary, "well-crafted catchy songs". seriously.

"koortsmeetsysteemstrook" is a dutch fever measurement or something like that, and theres also a place in the netherlands called "ee". yes, ee.

theres also Nerren Nerren in australia, Wassamassaw in south carolina, Ekalakala lake in montana, yreka bakery in yreka,california, and madoko dam in zimbabwe.

in Pompeii, the town that was covered in ash by Mt Vesuvius and preserved for hundreds of years, theres a very clever arrangement of 25 letters, so that if you read it left-to-right then down, or right-to-left then up, or top-to-bottom then right or bottom-to-top then left, it will always read SATOR/AREPO/TENET/OPERA/ROTAS. my mind is blown.

theres also Belphegor's prime - two sets of 13 zeroes, with a 666 in the middle, and its a prime number!

1000000000000066600000000000001
