#julius harper

[musicallover0428]

I briefly want to tell you why my favorites are my favorites.

Arin (EEA)- LOOK AT THEM, hair up, hair down: they're gorgeous. Also, anxiety and panic attacks were significant aspects of their route and as someone with anxiety, it make me feel seen and safe.

Bram (TOTW))- He is so kind. Even when he does trust MC he's like "I'll protect you because you deserve to be protected." It makes my heart melt.

Lyris (RP)- He's PRETTY and a FLIRT and so GENUINE with his emotions. Despite everything going on with the route it was lighthearted.

Lorelei (VN)- Grumpy woman with anxiety, just my type. LOVE

Liora (SE)- LITERAL GODDESS OF GOOD. Also, I like her story was about taking time for herself.

Hades (AFK) He was the first route I read on Lovestruck and I read it so many times after. And I read all of his side stories at least twice (also once in French)

Julius (ST) It wasn't a romanized or sanitized depiction of an interracial relationship in the 1920s. Race and racism were addressed openly. It was a shame it didn't get more seasons.

Neil (ST) He's a grumpy, cold-fish drunk, what's not to like.

Wrath(SWM)- I'm drawn to her. No real explanation.

This is my tier list for Lovestruck, found the template on the Lovestruck Amino. And to be clear this is how I feel about their official routes, not their character. For example, I love Alex's character and dynamic with MC, although I only liked their story.

And for those who are not on the list here are my rankings.

Favorite: Arin (Ever After Academy)

Love: Nahara (sin with me), Piama (Reigning Passions), Abel (Ever After Academy)

Like: Galen (Reigning Passions), Emilio (Immortal Heart Society)

Neutral: Alanna (Immortal Heart Society), Maxime (My Siren Crush)

Dislike: Cassius (Immortal Heart Society), Arianna (My Siren Crush)

Didn't Read: Lavinia (Ever After Academy), Evina (Tales of the Wild), Lexi (My Siren Crush)

If you're curious about my thoughts about a certain character or route, feel free to ask. I'd love to tell you more!!!!!

[sidenote: Daria and Jo (EAA) are one of my favorite couples and I'd sell a tiny piece to read a bit more of their story]

HI EMILY HOW DO YOU DO ON THIS BEWARE THE IDES OF MARCH DAY 🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸

SURPRISINGLY I AM QUITE WELL ACTUALLY

^the Senate about to stab Caesar 23 times

[igotthisaccountunderduress]

Ranking the batfam by how likely they would be to stab Caesar:

Damian. he's a stabby boi

Barbara. that woman's just looking for an excuse for violence

Steph. murder girly

Alfred. he actually did stab Caesar back in 44 BC

Talia. uses a giant sword rather than a knife, but yes

Harper. tase, then stab

Duke. my man probably has a knife on him at all times, he's ready

Jason. he'd shoot him instead

Tim. he already has a contingency plan, the stabbing isn't necessary

Selina. while everyone else is busy stabbing, she's robbing him blind

Dick. unless you catch him on a bad day

Cass. she doesn't need a knife, her fists work fine

Bruce. blah blah blah moral code

BEWARE THE IDES OF MARCH

[tw1nkee28]

No one asked for this, but I really needed to infodump about him to someone or I was gonna go insane.

˙⋆✮ Info about my CoD oc, 'Dawn'! ✮⋆˙

⚠️Warning!⚠️ There will be a lot of words and one image containing (mild) nudity below the cut. (A shirtless man, in case you are uncomfortable with such)

The first image is a reference for the finer details of his character such as his hairstyle, his facial details like his nose and eyes, and his major scars.

The second image is more of how I envisioned his body type, but I struggle with consistency and being able to convey some bodies in different angles and intricate poses.

——————————————————————————

These are just some drawings I've made of his character as I was developing him.

While he is a rather calm individual, being stoic and silent most of the time, he does still get rather angry on the inside. Which is what I was trying to convey in the first image.

He respects his peers and superiors, but when they do legitimately stupid shit, he can and will rock their shit depending on how bad it was.

I've included this in his lore before but I am too nervous to share some of the finer details of his lore and will only be vaguely referencing it, sorry ☹️🫶

——————————————————————————

I made a janky, very brief timeline of his career above.

Now, I haven't filed through complete details so some things such as his rank and experience in the field may or may not be entirely accurate with the time he was working especially since I made his character on the fly and did little to no research at first. Only now am I actually trying to expand his character and lore and am realizing I did not do nearly enough research. Most of this is just what I thought sounded nice at first.

——————————————————————————

More in-detail information below ↓

Name: Julius Harper Aliases: Dawn, 7-28

Nationality: Filipino Ethnicity: Eastern Asian

Age: 32 DoB: June 19, 1992

Pronouns: He/Him Gender: Cis Man Sex: M

Sexuality: Unlabeled, prefers men

Height: 6'2

Languages: Tagalog, English, FSL (Filipino sign language, for Dusk)

Which CoD universe: Modern Warfare (ii)

Branches of Service: Marine Corps

Affiliation: Shadow Company

Specialities: hand to hand, a variety of front line infantry skills, long range, basic first aid

Personality: usually grumpy and quiet. switches between sassy, rude, and teasing(towards close people) and quiet, obedient, and stoic. He's technically a strong and silent type around most people, usually very distrusting and distant. He's very good at following orders unless they're outright stupid, then he'll put up a fight about them.

Backstory: (my attempt at being brief, sorry🙏) given to an (underground) training organization with unconventional training methods at a young age, was tortured and ridiculed for disobeying (his scars on his face and chest🫶), escaped with force when he was 17(nearly 18). Had to travel by himself to the US and rely on strangers to get him there (no money in his name).

Eventually joined the Marines at 20, met Dusk (his Colonel). Blah blah blah, went up the ranks. At 28 he dragged Dusk out of the field half exploded and left the Marines soon after Dusk did. Joined Shadow Company 🫶

Issues: PTSD, nightmares, paranoia, nervous at being touched randomly

Habits: never takes off his mask unless he's REALLY comfortable, sleeps with it on more often than not. Hovers close to people he likes cause he doesn't like to reach out and touch people, settling on subtle hands on shoulders or light brushes of skin. Watches and evaluates anyone and everyone in the same room as him, constantly searching for any red flags or threats.

Scars: One over each eye (resembling clown markings)

One running over his bottom lip and down his chin.

One running from his collar bone to below his navel.

A mix of bullet, knife, and other scars from his field work scattered over his arms and hands.

Preferred method of showing care/affection/love language: acts of service, quality time, ("secretly") physical touch.

Preferred way of receiving care/affection: words of affirmation, physical touch

Eye Color: left eye pale yellow with brown center, right eye green with yellow center. has heterochromia

Hair description: short and dusty brown with two streaks of early greying. Two long pieces in front of either ear, short in the back.

Clothing description: SC Uniform - beige tactical vest stocked with red and yellow(ish) glow sticks(?, I forgot the actual name for it), roll of thin rope, and three mags. Black, long-sleeve zip-neck shirt with the shadow company insignia on the sleeve. Black balaclava, black helmet and goggles with attachable headphones connected to comms. Black tactical cargo pants, black belt with two storage pouches attached at either side of his hips, and a right handed gun holster. Very dark brown/black combat boots.

Not in uniform - form fitting short-sleeve shirts and jeans most of the time. Occasionally switching it up for loose shirts when his compression shirts feel too tight and strangling for a casual day. He wears belts to at least make it seem like he cares about his outfits, even though he doesn't really put effort. Picking up whatever dark colored shirts and jeans he can find and calling it a day most of the time.

Body description: well-built Filipino man with hooded eyes. He has a bit of stubble along his jaw, forgetting to shave often. Freckles are speckled over his face, arms, neck and shoulders, and legs. Body hair over his chest, arms, and legs mainly. Occasionally lets other Shadows paint his nails when they ask (requests black but can't say no if they choose another) so sometimes has painted nails.

Favorite activities: sitting outside with nature, playing guitar, going to the bar with Dusk to spend time and catch up, reteaching Dusk guitar

Blood type: O

Favorite animal(s): Cats, snakes, birds in general

Favorite food/dessert: Pork Adobo, Graves' cooking (it's his guilty pleasure at cookouts, you can't convince me that Graves doesn't sit at a grill making food for his Shadows for a cookout on an off day)

• born in Marawi City; Mindanao, Philippines

——————————————————————————

He's generally like a big dog that doesn't realize it's own size, like a great Dane of sorts. Protective, loyal to a fault with aggressive tendencies towards those he doesn't know/trust. Silent and strong, unless he's with someone close to him (very few people in his original universe, maybe two people at most. Though I do headcanon him to be relatively close with the Shadows and Graves in my shadow company AU, being more welcoming with touch and close proximity but still acting grumpy like he doesn't want it, despite enjoying every brush or touch of skin to his.)

He enjoys his quiet time and regular meets up with an old friend of his, back from his Marine days, the both of them learning electric guitar and playing together sometimes to loosen up.

He's a workaholic all in all, not having many hobbies or activities out side of his work.

He lives at base, having been out on the streets before starting his career in the military.

——————————————————————————

He earned his scars on his face and chest when he was about 16-17, fleeing his state as soon as he was nearing 18 (lore reasons that I'm too nervous to share with people) and living on the streets with a lengthy theft history until he joined the Marines at 20 years old. Where he met his previously mentioned 'old friend', his Colonel, call sign 'Dusk'.

His shadow company number is 7-28. No I did not do research on the actual numbers, I just chose random ones that sounded nice on my tongue. Plus 28 is like,,, my number, if you couldn't tell by my user.

If anyone understands the number system better and would like to help me out by correcting me, I would appreciate that very much. But for now, it is Shadow 7-28.

His lore and titles were developed before I put him in Shadow Company canonically, so shit like him being a Lieutenant and other things that would require him to have years and years of experience to get would be from his career in the Marines before then. I'm assuming he would have to start fresh since he joined a new company? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believeeee he'd have to start fresh with SC with things like titles.

He does still keep his old mask since Dusk helped him with it, but now he really only wears the shadow company uniform and gear. Swapping his plain black balaclava for his old one with the skull-like details when he's back at base relaxing.

Smaller details about him!! ↓

Favorite color - Green !!

Favorite activities - sitting outside with nature, playing guitar, going to the bar with his found-family Brother (Dusk) to spend time and catch up

Favorite animal - cats ! Specifically black cats (he feels they're misunderstood)

• HATES ships and deep water

• used to (attempt to) pick up stray cats he found on the streets and try to bring them home as a kid.

• doesn't like training new recruits but is always put in charge of training them because of his leadership skills. (This happened to me in band a long while back, apparently my teacher thought I was a 'silent leader' and was really good at leading others subconsciously even if I hated being a leader??? That's him, that's Dawn. Silent leader)

• has nightmares frequently

• will deny liking someone, going as far as saying he hates them even if as soon as they leave the room he smiles on the inside because, hey! Someone wants to be close to him! That's new!

• tried drawing once, it looked like a kids drawing. he never picked up a pencil to draw again

• has really nice handwriting?? Wtf???

• He's a lieutenant!!

• spent years training to be a sniper that he's now unnecessarily still and silent while working on smaller tasks that require even the slightest bit of focus such as paperwork.

——————————————————————————

Info about 'Dusk' since he's a big part of their lore ↓

These are all the drawings I've done of him so far ↑

While I haven't gone deep into lore for him, I do have a few small facts about him that have played a part in Dawn's lore.

——————————————————————————

• He is 6'3, standing only an inch taller than Dawn.

• he was Dawn's Colonel for most of their career before they joined Shadow Company.

• just before Dawn had left to join SC, Dusk had gotten caught too close to an explosion. Having been dragged back to the base by Dawn himself and after healing, was left with very little sight and hearing on his left side. He struggled to be able to do many tasks that he needed to be able to complete to keep his job afterwards and had to quit.

• he cut off his long hair after the explosion burned off a lot of his hair, being left with very little long hair left on his right side. He felt it looked odd and cut it off so it could regrow at its own pace. Some parts of his scalp on his left side having damaged the actual skin there making it very hard/impossible to regrow it in some patches.

• he started learning guitar before joining the military, having been the one who inspired Dawn to learn and having lent Dawn their first ever guitar.

• was the one who gave Dawn his callsign

• he's Filipino, one of the many traits he and Dawn bonded over

• acts as Dawn's older brother later on in their career together after years of knowing each other. He has two siblings at home while Dawn is an only child

——————————————————————————

Fun fact! He was slightly based off of my older brother, named Dusk :)

While some parts of his character were based off of him, the name was surprisingly not, it just happened to match up with Dawn while I was making them 🫶

——————————————————————————

If you couldn't tell, Dawn is my baby and my favorite OC. I love him very much and will probably expand on his lore and such at some point, but for now, this is what we have.

Thank you if you read all of this ❤️

Angels In America is a play that also takes place in the aids crisis. Like falsettos it features a closted gay man(joe) cheating on his wife (harper)with a man(louis). But that is really only a small sliver of the story.

Otther aspects that are somewhat simmaler to falsettos are somewhat of moraly grey main characters,Relgion, and harper basically losing her mind. It also features the character Roy cohn based off a actually person who is such a giant piece of shit it's like almost ridiculous,but really entertaining to read.

There's to parts and it is kinda a long read but I enjoyed it!

-beyond therapy

Beyond therapy was written in the 80s but had a more modern since of humor. Its definitely comedic opposed to the Angels in America but I feel like it still would be a good read for a falsettos enjoyer.

It features a minpulative therapist (though he's way worse then Mendel),more unstable main characters,and even "unstable-er" Relsonships (exspicly the gay ones)

It's also just a really good read and horribly underated

Hamilton

-Julius caesar

What if burr was the main protagonist of Hamilton and we got to see what happened affter the duel? That's a lot like Julius ceaser. It's also great if you like history in general.

It is obviously Shakespeare but there's translators online and its not that hard to comprehend.

25th annual putnam County spelling bee

-puffs

First off puffs is such a great show and even if you don't like this musical you should go see/read it. It's funny and sad,just a really fantastic show that kinda has the vibe of spelling bee.

I actually don't know that many musicals so that's all I got for now but you should definitely read these or see them plays are offten free on YouTube

Quiz Time!

Hello Friends! I don't get asked alot of questions about my writing or process so I thought it would be fun to see how you guys think I do it while I work on the next chapters of Alpha Drew and Alpha Bucky!

Question #1

And the correct answer is!! SONGS! Congrats to whoever voted for that one! Here are the songs and the parts of it that really stuck out to me (as you can see, i have several works coming soon that i am already getting info for):

Hold You Up - Marcel Barthel x Kiya Bryant x Fabian Aichner

Hold You Up – Shane Harper

“The world is so broken and sometimes it leaves you cold. And at times you can't feel the fire to guide you home. The demons will haunt you and try to steal what you know. But the angels, they brought you, and they're gonna hold you up.”

Heartbeat - Ethan Carter III x Adalynn Strowman

Heartbeat – Carrie Underwood

“I wanna feel it like a kick drum, beatin' faster in your chest. I wanna feel you holding onto me and make me hold my breath. You pull me closer, my head on your shoulder Baby, we won't need a song. We'll make a fallen star wish, one more slow kiss. What are we waiting on?”

Yours - Dominik Dijakovic x Skye Simmons

Yours – Russell Dickerson

“I was one in a hundred billion A burned out star in a galaxy. Just lost in the sky, wonderin' why, Everyone else shines out but me. But. I came to life when I first kissed you, The best me has his arms around you. You make me better than I was before, Thank God I'm yours.”

The Day Before You - Ridge Holland x Lyssa Hutchinson

The Day Before You – Rascal Flatts

“I was ready to settle for less than love And not much more. There was no such thing as a dream come true. But that was on the day before you. Now you're here and everything's changing. Suddenly life means so much, I can't wait to wake up tomorrow And find out this promise is true. I will never have to go back To the day before you.”

Long Time Coming - Bucky Barnes x Carina Rivera

Long Time Coming – Oliver James

“It's been a long time coming down this road, And now I know. What I've been waiting for. And like a lonely highway I'm trying to get home, Oh. Loves been a long time coming.”

From The Ground Up - Drew McIntire x Cassidy Riley 

From the Ground Up – Dan + Shay

“And we'll build this love from the ground up. Now 'til forever it's all of me, all of you, Just take my hand. And I'll be the man your dad hoped that I'd be. And we'll build this love from the ground up. For worse or for better And I will be all you need, Beside you I'll stand through the good and the bad We'll give all that we have And we'll build this love from the ground up.”

Finally Home - Ari Levinson x Brianna Collier 

Finally Home – Kerrie Roberts

“And there's no more road Nowhere else to go, Nothing left to miss, Nothing left for this wandering soul When I'm finally home. The ultimate healing, Where hurt can't reach me. I won't need to find every answer, All I need will be found within Your presence.”

Rescue Me - Marcel Barthel x Sofia (Reese) x Fabian Aichner

Rescue Me - Chris Young

“What's a happy ending if I can't get the girl? What's it matter if I save the world?”

Cross Every Line - Marcel Barthel x Alina Lawson x Fabian Aichner

Cross Every Line – Chris Young

“If you were captured, baby, I would be relentless. I'd declare it war and run right out them trenches. Yeah, you'd hear my battle cry I'd let the bullets fly Wouldn't be an enemy let behind the enemy line I'd cross every line in the world for you I'd cross every line in the world for you Nowhere I wouldn't go, nothin' I wouldn't do I'd cross every line in the world for you.”

What If - Julius Creed x Unnamed

What If – Kane Brown w/ Lauren Alaina

“What if I was made for you And you were made for me. What if this is it? What if it's meant to be? What if I ain't one of them fools just Playin' some game. What if I just pulled you close? What if I leaned in? And the stars line up and it's our last first kiss. What if one of these days baby I'd go and change your name. What if I loved all these what ifs away?”

Bokumono/Story of Seasons If They Remade: Animal Parade

I thank one of the HM/SoS/Bokumono blogs for making the remake naming conventions clearer to me.

Basically, when localization was moved to XSeed, any character names that Natsume, the former localization team from when the series was known as "Harvest Moon", Romanized/Anglicized to something other than what was the Japanese version? They are not usable. The most current example is "Muffy" being "Molly" now because the character was "MuuMuu" in Japanese.

It will likely be a few years before the next remake (maybe) and it is unknown which game they will focus on...but woah boy, ANIMAL PARADE.

This will be devastating to those of you used to the English localized names of characters from Animal Parade. Pretty much NONE of the character's names resemble the Japanese version.

If this convention remains true? Here's a list of those that would be impacted (*means they MIGHT be able to swing using the existing name but not likely) :

Chase (Chihaya) Jin (Won) Julius (Juli) Owen (Ose) Toby (Tao) Anissa (Anise*) Candace (Kotomi) Luna (Roomi) Maya (Mai) Phoebe (Pat) Renee (Rina) Selena (Sheila)

Barbara (Blanc) Bo (Boan) Cain (Kapara) Colleen (Cole) Craig (Cresson) Dale (Dai) Irene (Inya) Hamilton (Herbal) Hayden (Harper) Mira (Miori) Ozzie (Ozu) Pascal (Ponpei) Paolo (Pao) Perry (Perin) Ramsey (Rakusha) Ruth (Rukora) Shelly (Seraph) Sue (Suo*) Taylor (Thyme) Yolanda (Yuba) Angie (Anje*) Dakota (Yui) Matt (Mao) It's actually kind of astounding how many characters they just...straight didn't use their name. Luckily I didn't deal with the non-marriageable characters enough to be like 'oh, I don't know who that is now' but dang, the marriageable? This would be fun to see.

introducing : jessica caesar

〔 poppy drayton, 28, cis woman, she/her ) jessica caesar was seen listening to “ only wanna be with you ” by hootie and the blowfish. jess is a romance novelist and known to be brainy & moody ( harper )

𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚋𝚊𝚜𝚒𝚌𝚜

full name ~ jessica maria caesar birthday ~ MAY / 29 / 1994 job status ~ employed as a romance novelist relationship status ~ (currently) single orientation ~ heterosexual

𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚋𝚒𝚘 ( tws : cheating , divorce )

Jessica Maria Caesar was born right at the beginning of the summer, a week or two overdue. Her dad was a grocer, and her mom was a singer-turned-nursing home assistant. They met at the grocery store, which was apparently inspiration enough for Jess to have a veggie-themed nursery.

“Growing up”, for Jessica, was a bit of a misnomer, since she spent the first 12 years of her life stubbornly short. She was made fun of for that fact, but the gentle teasing turned darker when her social awkwardness and love for lord of the rings made her genuinely unpopular. She found herself outcasted for most of her young life, and she poured any loneliness into long, fantasy epics. Jess read, and read, and read some more: people who did try to talk to her would often be treated to long descriptions of whatever series she was four books deep into. 

Junior high brought the first big changes for Jess, who had a growth spurt and a first boyfriend at the same time. Both taught her that not only could she be pretty (her middle school boyfriend made a point of reminding her every morning), but also a little mean. She made fun of the people who were cold to her, first behind their backs, and then to their faces. The relationship petered out, but the lessons stayed with her.

As she entered high school, she loved three things dearly: fantasy, football, and fantasy football. She developed a space on the internet fairly early, writing fanfictions and beating her dad in fantasy football drafts. In her sophomore year, she made a big splash by trying out for the football team, even if it was all boys. She knew that she had a killer kick, and the football team wasn’t even that competitive. The coach dismissed her outright, and she organized a protest. The protest didn’t exactly take over the school, but she made a name for herself.

Even if she was ultimately unsuccessful in her mission to be the first girl on the team, she decided to capitalize on whatever popularity her project won her by running for student council. She befriended Julius, and ran on the Julius/Caesar ticket. The wordplay was strong, but not strong enough to get them the win. What she got, however, was a bit more precious, since it earned her a connection with Julius.

For a stint, she dated Nico Manning, who was not only ridiculously cute, but also super sweet. The cracks showed in their relationship when school became an issue. It was her everything, and his… not much. They ended things when college application times came around, and it set in that he wasn’t all that interested in the future that she wanted.

As high school came to an end, she was dead set on Harvard as her next step. When she didn’t get into Harvard, she cried her eyes out. And Julius, much to her surprise, was there with open arms and a shoulder to cry on, even though she thought that they’d never stay friends. The next time she needed a friend, when her mom and dad told her they were getting a divorce, he was there for her again. Strangely enough, he just… stayed in her life. She never expected it, but after a few years of keeping in touch, he kind of became her best friend.

It wasn’t Harvard, but Huntsville had a college with a creative writing major, and Jessica put her whole heart into that. She wanted to embark on a fantasy epic series like the ones that raised her, and she split her focus in two ways. Half went to her creative writing portfolio, and the other half went to the epic college romance she always wanted. She found a great guy to do it with, and they were together for a couple months, until she walked in on him cheating on her. With his boss. It was bad. 

Jess swore off men after that. She figured that after dating a literal model in high school, she might have peaked a bit too soon. That didn’t keep her from occasionally striking up romances, but each was more ill-fated than the last. She chalked it up to bad taste in men, and hoped that her luck would improve.

When Jess graduated college, she jumped headfirst into a market that didn’t really want what she was selling. She tried desperately to publish her high fantasy, even though her agent said that the only marketable part of her work was the romantic subplot. Said agent, who Jess was kinda-sorta-friends with, asked Jess to write a romance novel. It took a year or two, but Jess caved, and delivered exactly what her agent wanted. Much to Jess’ chagrin, it was a success, and everyone wanted more romance novels. 

After pitfalls both in her love life and her career, Jess has decided that she’s going to stick to herself, and her little circles. How successful this will be remains to be seen.
