Revelations of the GoodWitch

(A Closed RP with @a-den-of-demons)

Nolan sighed as he passed the keycard between his fingers, tumbling the plastic card like a gambler tumbling the Ace of Spades. He smirked softly to himself, mulling over the note that had been wrapped around the card and slipped under the door of his motel room sometime in the night.

Room 316. Show your work to the teacher, then relax.

He chuckled softly, looking at the elevator screen ticking to the third floor of the lavish hotel. It had been his rendezvous spot with his handler for this mission. Normally it would be Winter, but she was back home with Kali. It left him wondering exactly who was going to be meeting him...

Minutes later, Nolan swiped the keycard and entered room 316, walking into a suite that was almost too perfect. He walked through the main room, glancing at a statue of the Goddess Athena and smirking slightly.

"Goddess of Wisdom... the teacher of us all." He chuckled softly, leaving the Skeleton Key USB drive at the foot of the small statue before heading into the bedroom and laying down, lacing his fingers together and resting with his hands behind his head as he settled into the obscenely comfortable bet. He didn't know what to expect next... but he was prepared for almost anything.

... almost...

References to How We Met - Nolan reflects on your relationship.

There’s one bed. Nolan was expecting at least twin singles but right now he finds himself staring at a queen sized mattress in a shitty motel room trying to puzzle out his next steps.

“I’ll take the floor.” He says as he props his rolling suit case up against the door.

It’s been a long drive from the city, you’d handled the majority of it while he read and then re-read through the case file in the car. He has to go up against a judge tomorrow, argue jurisdiction because your perp not only killed in New York, he also killed in New Jersey too and they’re being territorial.

“Nolan.” You say firmly as you set your holdall down on the bed. “We’re both adults. I’m not letting you sleep underneath your suit jacket on this very dubious carpet.”

You aren’t wrong about the carpet, it’s sticking to his shoes.

You shower while he unpacks his clothes. He listens to you sing to yourself as he hangs up the drycleaner’s bag containing his suit on the curtain rail. He can’t help but smile at how oddly domestic this whole scenario feels. Though if he were taking you away it would be to a B&B in the Catskills, not this God forsaken place.

Nolan rubs his hands over his tired features, he isn’t even sure why he’s thinking about that. He’s been thoughts like this ever since the night you fell asleep in his office. Things had changed between the two of you since then, you’d brought him an apology coffee, shared a breakfast pastry and from then on he was smitten because he’d caught a glimpse of the real you. The pretty detective who’s just as dedicated to justice as he is.

He’s tucked in bed by the time you leave the bathroom, the latest Dan Brown clasped between his hands. His gaze flickers up as you close the door behind you and his heart just stops because the sight of you in an oversized Six  t-shirt and boy boxers is just the most adorable thing he’s seen in his life. It’s in that moment Nolan realises just how much he wants this, not the sex but the intimacy of being with someone who knows you, who cares about you.

“I didn’t know you were a fan.” You remark, gesturing at the book as you climb into bed alongside him. He can feel the heat of your body rolling off you as you settle beside him, your cheek pressed to the pillow.

“It’s escapism.” He tells you as he sets the book down on the nightstand and lies down beside you, looking into your eyes. “The closest I’ll ever come to being a treasure hunter.”

“Is that what little Nolan wanted to be when he grew up?” You ask him, your lips curving up into a small smile.

It unlocks something deep inside him and in that moment there is nowhere else he would rather be than this rundown motel in New Jersey.

“And an astronaut.” He tells you, shrugging his shoulders. “I had lofty goals from a young age and I was obsessed with space, still am actually. I have a year round pass to the observatory.”

His cheeks colour as he tells you that last part because he realises he’s revealing something he’s never told anyone before. He doesn’t share his private life with his colleagues, he likes to keep the two world separate.

“Your turn.” He says, clearing his throat. “Tell me something I don’t know about you.”

You purse your lips together for a second before saying.

“This is the first time I’ve shared a bed with someone in years.”

That does surprise him, you must see it in his features because an apricot flush creeps across your cheeks.

“It’s been a long time for me too.” He finds himself telling you.

He’s had liaisons on and off over the past few years but they always leave or he does. Noone spends the night. Somehow the time he’s spending with you right now is far more intimate than any of the sex he’s had.

“Do you miss it?” You ask him. “Being that way with someone else? Being held by them?”

There’s such a vulnerability in you right now, you’re sharing a part of yourself with him and it’s only fair that Nolan does the same.

“Yes.” He says honestly. “The life I lead… it’s lonely.”

You understand that, he can see it in your eyes. The job you do, the one you did back in the Bronx, he understands how it can create a disconnect.

“We don’t have to be lonely tonight.” He whispers. “Not if you don’t want to.”

His arm wraps around your waist, drawing you closer. You feel so good pressed against him, the perfect fit against his muscular form.

“Nolan.” You say quietly, your fingertips ghosting along the line of his jaw.  

“Just let me hold you.” He murmurs, his forehead coming to rest upon yours. “Let me show you how much I care.”

[theflyindutchwoman]

I agree with you in that we’re meant to see how isolated Lucy feels (without actually being isolated). But something that did bug me is that Nolan left Lucy alone to babysit with a potential shooter in the area (yeah he could have left but since they didn’t have the killer they couldn’t be for sure)

You know, that part bothered me too but for a slightly different reason. Since the paramedics were there, I just assumed that Nolan had secured the scene first and hadn't found any trace of a potential suspect - besides Conrad - in the vicinity. And he obviously had no way of knowing that one of the neighbours would come out guns blazing. What really bugged me is that Nolan left Lucy and Bailey alone with Conrad himself. He made sure to tell Lucy he had read him his rights, indicating that he wasn't really buying the suspect's story of being pursued by a killer and yet, he had no problem leaving like that. Granted, the guy was injured, but he wasn't even handcuffed or anything. I honestly half expected the guy to take Bailey hostage or try to hurt her…

And since we're on that topic, the reason why Nolan had to leave so abruptly also bothered me. The way he kept brushing off Opal when she was asking for help rubbed me the wrong way. So once the incident occurred, I kept waiting for his action (or lack thereof) to be acknowledged. I'm not saying he is responsible… but this could have been prevented. I don't know, it just reminded me of Plain Clothes Day when he dismissed a woman at the motel who was abducted a few hours later and how he felt guilty for not taking the time to listen to her. I guess I expected something similar here.

[denimbex1986]

'Cillian Murphy had just spent the day filming what felt like 30 scenes on “Oppenheimer” with the desert sand kicking up and blasting into his eyes when his co-star Robert Downey Jr. greeted him, trying to boost his spirits. And — this is how Downey remembers it, and when the legend becomes fact, print the legend — Murphy launched into a lament about how, when he had returned to his “18-dollar-a-night hotel room” the previous evening, he found his bags in the hallway and thought, “F—! I haven’t checked out yet. I have to sleep!”

“Every indignity that could befall someone who’s trying to do something .... It was like the tears of Job,” Downey related after a recent screening of the Christopher Nolan blockbuster. “Forget the call sheet and the job. It was everything else. It was the most Irish experience I’ve ever witnessed.”

Nearly two years later, Murphy and I are talking on a late-autumn day in L.A. He’s removing his coat and pulling his chair into the sun because, yes, he’s Irish, and part of the Irish experience is to soak up as much sun as possible when the opportunity presents itself. As to what Downey is ascribing to his native land, Murphy can do nothing but laugh.

“I don’t know if that means that Irish people are more predisposed to suffering,” Murphy says, smiling. “I think he’s being very sweet and saying we were like a troupe, moving at quite a pace. We were just staying at motels by the freeway and moving around. It was not glamorous. The way Chris works is that everything is equitable. No one has trailers or personal makeup. Everyone gets in a bus. It feels like independent filmmaking, but on a f—ing grand scale. And that’s the way I enjoy working.”

Murphy, 47, also enjoys not working, and he’s had a successful enough career in the two decades since his film breakthrough in Danny Boyle’s 2002 classic zombie film “28 Days Later” that he can describe such periods as being “happily unemployed.” That was where he was at a couple of years ago. He’d finished shooting the sixth (and final) season of the entertaining BBC crime drama “Peaky Blinders” and was in the midst of a glorious six months enjoying the company of his wife, Irish visual artist Yvonne McGuinness, and their two teenage sons. Then Nolan called out of the blue.

Actually, it wasn’t Nolan, but his wife and producing partner, Emma Thomas. It couldn’t be Nolan, because Nolan doesn’t have a phone, an eccentricity that’s either endearing or infuriating depending on the context. Thomas handed the phone to her husband, who told Murphy — in what the actor calls an “unbelievably understated British way” — “I’m making a film about Oppenheimer.” Pause. “I’d like you to play Oppenheimer.”

And just like that, Murphy was no longer happily unemployed. He was playing the title character in Nolan’s sprawling drama about the physicist known as the “father of the atomic bomb.”

“A big moment,” Murphy calls it, no stranger to restraint himself. Pause. “A biggie.”

In conversation, Murphy is pleasant and reflective when talking about his native country (he could and should write a book on the Ring of Kerry or at least narrate a self-guided tour) and the arts. I’d read that Nolan sent him photos of David Bowie wearing high-waisted, voluminous trousers from the singer’s Thin White Duke era as a visual reference for the gaunt silhouette he imagined for Oppenheimer, a man who possessed such a manic work ethic that he forgot to eat, subsisting on martinis and Chesterfield cigarettes. I pull up a photo of Bowie taken shortly before his death, wearing a sharp suit, black fedora and beaming smile.

“He looks a little alien, which is what we were going for with Oppenheimer, I think,” Murphy says. He holds onto my phone, looking at Bowie. “One of the greats. That last album [“Blackstar”] was f—ing extraordinary. What a gift to leave us with. Nobody else could have gone out like that.”

Murphy’s most striking feature — his piercing blue eyes — have been noted at length, for good reason. “Oppenheimer” co-star Matt Damon notes how he’d find himself distracted working with Murphy. “It’s a real problem when you’re doing scene work with Cillian [because] sometimes you find yourself just swimming in his eyes,” he told People.

Those eyes are what first attracted Nolan to him. The filmmaker was leafing through a newspaper while writing “Batman Begins” and came across a photo of Murphy from “28 Days Later.” He couldn’t shake the image of this actor with a shaved head and “crazy eyes” and made a note to meet with Murphy for Batman, a role that eventually went to Christian Bale.

They’ve now made six movies together, with Murphy playing the menacing Scarecrow in the “Dark Knight” trilogy, a petulant business heir in “Inception” and a character known simply — and quite accurately — as “Shivering Soldier” in “Dunkirk.” They share a mutual interest in conveying a character’s emotional conflict through close-ups that linger on an actor’s face and allow the audience to feel inner turmoil. In Oppenheimer’s case, it was the searing anguish of a man a bit late to realize and appreciate the consequences of what he’d created.

“To me, great screen acting is all about ‘show, don’t tell,’” Murphy says, “and being able to transmit emotion and energy just by force or presence or charisma.”

I ask him about influences in that regard, but Murphy demurs, saying that if he starts listing actors, he’ll wake up in the middle of the night, thinking, “F—, I left that person out.” He reiterates that his favorite movie moments aren’t big set pieces but watching actors in reflection, inactive, doing nothing, but revealing everything. “I find that compelling in the highest order,” he says.

Murphy had ample opportunity to do just that in “Oppenheimer,” portraying a character caught in a moral dilemma of his own making.

“I knew it would have to be a quiet, small performance, because the themes are f—ing huge,” Murphy says. “What’s happening inside his heart and his mind can’t be painted big, particularly when it’s captured on an Imax camera and it’s going to be shown on a f—ing 80-foot screen. I knew it would have to be delicate and tiny, most of it.”

Murphy doesn’t like to dwell on what he did once call the “monastic experience” of the film’s 57-day shoot or on the months it took to decompress afterward. Such talk would be a little too close to the “Irish experience” Downey had mentioned. But all of these efforts did make me think about something that Emily Blunt, who plays Oppenheimer’s wife, Kitty, in the film and worked with Murphy in “A Quiet Place Part II,” noted about him.

“She said that off set, you’re a hoot,” I tell him, fishing for an example or two. Murphy does not oblige, but he does express how his friendship with Blunt created a trust that informed their portrayal of lifelong partners.

“She’s also one of the funniest people, and I have a rule that I can’t work unless there’s a lightness around the set,” Murphy says. “There has to be some levity. A lot of the films I do are quite heavy and go to some dark, challenging places, and you have to be relaxed to do that. So I don’t walk around in a state of f—ing angst. I need to feel at ease. I can’t be in that dark place all the time. I don’t have the stamina for it.”

Murphy saw “Oppenheimer” at the film’s July world premiere in Paris. Two days later, he and the rest of the cast left the London premiere to show their support for the impending SAG-AFTRA strike. By the time he returned home to Dublin, his wife and sons had already seen “Barbie,” so Murphy went to the cinema by himself to complete the “Barbenheimer” experience.

How do you go incognito to the multiplex, I ask.

“I time going to movies very well now,” Murphy says. “With the ads and trailers, I always arrive a half hour late, slip in and then slip out.”

I grouse how that half hour feels like it’s getting longer by the year. Murphy agrees. And yet ...

“The greatest democratic collective art form is sitting in a darkened space with strangers,” he says. “To be part of a movie that people went to see multiple times and part of a great moment for cinema, that frenzy for those two films, was just lovely. I don’t know if we’ll ever see it again, but I’d like to hope so.”

~MOMENTUM~

HI Y'ALL IT'S HERE! MY BANG FIC IS UP! I'm super excited for y'all to read this short-story based on Christopher Nolan's film Memento. That film was my first introduction to Chris Nolan, who is my all time favorite director and the reason I started acting. I've always wanted to write something in his style--non linear which is what you're about to read. It's very confusing and it was intentional to be confusing, especially if you have not watched the film, which you do not need to in order to understand this short-story. But it is recommended. My lovely artist is @lithuanianking so go check out their amazing artwork for this story when it gets posted! Y'all are going to be so confused and I am so ready for the comments. Hope y'all enjoy! @newsiesminibang24

READ IT ON AO3!

Based on Christopher Nolan's 2000 film "Memento", Jack Kelly is a private insurance investigator suffering a rare amnesia condition known as anterograde amnesia. In denial about his past, Kelly has also removed files from the police to fool himself and Sammy Jenkins. After the murder of the real Sean C., Kelly shows up to a local cafe restaurant where he meets up with Katherine. Knowing Kelly’s associated with Sean’s disappearance, Katherine uses him to protect her from Sean’s associates like Oscar Delancy or maybe she sics Deleancy on Kelly. Spot tries to help Kelly deal with Oscar after Oscar tries to kill Kelly. Spot’s trying to get away from Katherine because he knows who she is, and she knows his undercover name. But Katherine’s lies convinces Kelly she’ll help him, which she does by running the liscense plate number that Kelly gave her. She also gives Kelly a place to kill him. When Spot meets up with Kelly again, Kelly takes him to the place Katherine gave him, which happens to be an abandoned motel. Kelly kills Spot because he believes Spot is the one who raped and murdered his husband, David Jacobs. He takes a picture of Conlon’s dead body and looks at it.

Could you possibly walk us through your writing process? I’m a beginner writer at best, and I usually jot down snippets in my notes app. I’m not the best at connecting plot lines, and most definitely struggle with writing filler content. I was just wondering how you start out + go through it from there? If not, that’s okay :) I love your work so much <3

absolutely i can. i have been told that my writing process is a little non-linear (read: unhinged), so please bear with me. it’s like a christopher nolan film up in my brain

most of my stories start with just an image or a particular line in my head that i can’t shake – so like, jet was built around a static image of a dingy motel room with two horses stood out front. and from there, i just map everything out.

that initial thought is the main seed, and everything else stems from questions i ask myself (and therefore gotta assume whoever’s reading will also ask). all the what where when who whys etc. and slowly this skeletal structure forms, where the bones are the answers to these questions, and the flesh becomes the story they tell, with as much attention to detail as i can possibly cram in. the devil is in the detail!!!!!

this means, though, that the process is not always linear (for me anyways lol), because depending on which thought/image has sparked inspiration in my brain, i begin writing at diff points of the tale. sometimes i'll start writing the end and go back and fill the beginning in, sometimes i write one scene in full and then jump back and forth to finish the story. it’s back to front, left to right, upside down on its damn head way more often than it’s once upon a time… straight through to happily ever after. i cannot say i recommend this. it becomes confusing and mildly painful when editing.

anyway. yes. using the notes app is also super helpful, keep doing that! it’s great for when inspiration suddenly strikes and you gotta jot it down. good for collecting little moments that you’ll wanna use in fics later on. little snippet notes are great for mulling over a particular idea and developing a story around it. just keep adding adding adding

as for physically writing/pulling a story together: you just have to do it. just get it out. don’t worry about it being good or bad, especially not your first draft. sometimes you gotta let the water run for a bit before it turns clear. just write. i like to hammer a first draft out (usually garbage), and then i pull up a blank second document side by side and redraft by retyping the entire thing. it helps me read it like a first-time reader would, which helps point out things that maybe don’t make sense or could be worded better. helps edit the hell out of it. i LOVE redrafting lmao

my biggest piece of advice is have fun with it. write stories you love, about people you love, and do it for you. and please send in anything you write, so we can all read and love it, too 🩵

(sorry for long ass response. u ask about something max is passionate about and she appears at ur window like the boogeyman)

[scottienolan]

full name: scottie (scarlett) belle nolan

nicknames: scotch, scots

age: 25

star sign: gemini (june 17th)

hometown: orlando, florida

occupation: waitress at oasis

pronouns/gender: she/her, cis female

time in town: new in town

location: fisher's cove

@aurorabayaesthetic

please be aware the following bio contains mentions of childhood poverty, drug use, parental abandonment, foster care, and assault

the story so far.

scottie (born scarlett) was born as the second child to nina nolan, a stripper in orlando who could barely hold down a job for anything longer than four months.

with her mother and her older brother, atlas, scottie grew up in 'pay by the night' motel rooms. often it was just her and her brother fending for themselves while their mother worked and partied through nights and slept through the days. that's when times were good.

when times were bad nina would disappear for days at a time, either with a new boyfriend or whatever substance she was currently indulging in. those would be the times they'd get kicked out of motels for falling behind on payments.

eventually the luck ran out and child services collected scottie and her brother when she was ten years old. separated by the system, they agreed to meet up in california when they turned eighteen after scottie having an obsession with hollywood all her life.

scottie bounced through the foster care system, some places good and some places bad -- some stays long and some stays short. a bad altercation with a man in her last placement led to her breaking a bottle over his head in self-defense -- an assault charge that led her to spend her last two years in the system in a group home.

after spending their time in several cities along the coast and a span of three years in las vegas working as a stripper, she currently rents a house in fisher's cove with her brother. they haven't heard from nina since they were kids. they enjoy throwing rowdy parties and are no strangers to noise complaints.

scottie fell easily into working as a cocktail waitress -- an adaptable job that puts her natural flirtation skills and attitude to work and results in good tips and happy regulars. she runs an onlyfans account on the side with a solid base built up of fans from her stripper days.

over the last year, scottie has been dabbling in a fledgling 'onlyfans' account -- she'd always dreamed of being famous, and getting the account off the ground is one step closer to that.

fun facts.

scottie grew up in Orlando and has an aversion to Disney World in spite of never stepping foot in the place before. (Her family couldn't afford to and she was painfully jealous being constantly surrounded by people who could.)

scottie drives a red 1998 Chevy Silverado pickup truck that she bought with her savings after turning 18. At the time it didn't run, but she and her brother spent hours watching Youtube tutorials and scavenging junkyards until they got all the right pieces to fix it up.

scottie is a big fan of the cheap fountain drinks that you can get at the gas station and is known for her experiments in mixing various kinds of soda to her liking. One can always be found in the cup holder of her truck.

scottie has an affinity for Big Red chewing gum if she's at work serving cocktails, there's a 98% chance she's got gum in her back pocket or is chewing it obnoxiously.

karaoke song of choice is 'Fancy' by Reba McEntire. She knows no other songs by Reba McEntire.

always wears a cheap silver heart gumball machine ring that her mother got for her when she was seven.

current connects:

sister to @atlasnolan

cousin to @cricketcampbell

coworker of @lorelailewis

hookup/OF collaborator of @buddywellls

wanted connections:

oasis regulars: people who work at the club or who scottie frequently waits on

service industry friends: people who she can meet up with for drinks during weird hours

equally unhinged influences: people she gets into trouble or hijinks with around town

neighbors: both people who frequent her and her brother's house parties or alternatively someone who might live next door and can't stand the noise

romantic connections: completely open to mess here!

scottie is a new babe and i'm pretty open to where she goes so hmu if you have ideas!

Neighborhood: Celestial Drive

How long have they been in Starlight Oaks? 9 years.

Three positive traits: Free-spirited, loyal, spontaneous.

Three negative traits: Aimless, distractible, envious.

tw drugs, child neglect

OVERVIEW.

-- First born child to a mother who probably should never have been a mother, something Nina Nolan would admit herself if she could ever be tied down long enough for an honest conversation on that.

-- Atlas had to practically raise himself and his sister from a young age. Though their mother was technically present, she had spells of going missing for days on and leaving them alone in various motel rooms in Orlando that they called him until having to move on to the next one.

-- Despite the nurturing skills she lacked, his mother was the type who loved a party and was always one of the last ones left shutting the bar down, something that's rubbed off on Atlas.

-- It was an expectation that both he and his sister had to pitch in whenever they could to keep a roof over their heads (and their mother's bad habits funded) which is how Atlas started to shoplift at a young age. Small things at first because he was scared of getting caught, but he gradually grew bolder and bolder about the things he would lift.

-- He has numerous arrests and past charges as a minor and as an adult for theft.

-- Education was never made much of a priority, and it was rare for him to actually attend a full month of school consecutively. Due to this, Atlas never finished high school. After ending up in the system as a pre-teen once child services intervened after another of Nina's vanishing acts, the constant moves heightened the disinterest he had already had about learning as a kid and by sixteen he had dropped out altogether.

-- He made a pact with his sister before they were separated and placed in different homes that when they both turned eighteen they would meet up in Washington and reunite.

-- He first first landed in a trailer park outside of town when he arrived to Starlight Oaks, staying in a trailer there before eventually being able to move into a house on Celestial Drive that's needed the same set of repairs since he first moved in seven years ago (they're still to be done).

-- He's worked various jobs to keep himself afloat, a lot of which have ended up in him being fired for poor attendance or bad behaviour.

-- Loves to throw loud and raucous house parties at his, which has gotten him into trouble with some of his neighbors over the years.

-- Currently, he's passing his time as an attendant at the Arcade. It's his longest steady employment to date (8 months as of Jan. 2024)

SORTA FUN FACTS.

His desire to move to Washington was due to a postcard he received as a child from his 'dad'. It depicted Washington on the front and on the back it just said 'I'm proud of you son - Dad'. He received it when he was six after it was slipped under the door of the motel he was staying in in Orlando. He has no idea currently that the postcard wasn't from his father but rather the motel's caretaker, Jack, who felt bad for how often the young boy would talk about the dad he had never met.

For the longest time he thought At Last by Etta James was actually a song called Atlas. To this day, if it plays on the radio he still sings Atlas instead.

His karaoke song of choice is Gloria by Laura Branigan. It's his mom's favorite song and one of the few he knows all the words to.

Has various tattoos on his body, half of which are from when he was drunk and let someone draw on him at one of his house parties before getting it yatted permanently.

Is wary of wealthy people.

He's never been on an airplane in his life.

Has never been to Disney World despite spending the first 11 years of his life in close proximity to it.

frenemies/friends who only fuck with each other when they're drunk and/or partying but on a normal day its like nah fuck you KJSHGH

neighbors from celestial drive (can be positive or negative!)

someone he's in a toxic situationship with (always fighting and falling out then rekindling and can never figure out what they are so its just a messy cycle) plotting required!

connects he knows through his sister

former co-workers / former bosses (he's def bounced around a ton of minimum wage jobs while in SO so timeline is fluid and can be figured out!)

people who he's shoplifted stuff for (if he thinks he can get it and get away with it, he'll lift something by request and sell it to the person for half the price)

people he's gotten into fights with (he can be hotheaded and doesn't think things through when he's drinking)

ppl he gets high with (pretty game for anything but rarely goes harder than coke)

someone with their life together who can take him under their wing a little and help him figure out a path that isn't just him spinning out day in and day out

hookups, fwb, usual jazz.

GENERIC WANTED CONNECTIONS.

connections wise he’s pretty much an open book right now, but some baseline ideas that can be springboarded off are:

friendly.

a best friend / ride or dies / close friends / childhood friends from florida / pseudo-siblings / friends / drunk friends / positive influences / new friends / people who were also in care in florida / former co-workers.

romantic

flirtationship / friends with benefits / one time hook ups / tinder matches / unrequited crush (can be either way) / exes on good terms.

antagonistic.

enemies / former (best) friends / exes on bad terms / frenemies / rivals / negative influence / people who don’t fuck with him.

Name: Nolan Carrington Age: 28 Species: Ghoul Clan: Ravnos Vampire: Lemon

Nolan Carrington used to be someone– used to. Life before the Embrace was all about him trying to protect those who couldn’t protect themselves. In high school, he was a very bright student that was on his way to becoming one of the best fencers that the world had ever seen, winning state championships and tournament after tournament, but life was more than just fencing to him. Nolan enlisted in the U.S. Army as soon as he turned 18. Serving for 3 years before his convoy was hit by an IED that almost left him paralyzed, barely surviving and somehow doing so with 40 screws keeping his left leg together. Nolan wasn’t the same since, and decided his skills might best be used to enlist in a local militia force just south of Chicago Illinois, before his whole life changed after being called to action to help with an issue about 15 minutes from his home where there was supposedly a “terror attack” being conducted on a bridge beside a Motel 6. Things didn't go as planned, and a vampire named Lemon made him her ghoul.

After the Calamity that was Chicago, Nolan decided it would be best to continue on with the group and help them along the way, especially after witnessing the death and destruction that such ancient beings could bring upon a city. Maybe with some time and after calling in some old favors, he might be able to prove that a ghoul is more than just a ghoul in this twisted world.

The Card Sharp

“No, it’s ok, I’ve got him cuffed, so you can take as long as you like,” said Joy Malone, private detective down the receiver as she kept a close eye on Kerry Nolan, the notorious racketeer she had finally tracked down to his seedy motel room. “Not really, lieutenant,” Joy continued, “he seemed almost relieved to surrender.” Nolan glared at the red haired detective, shamed by her words. He raised his manacled hands as though he was simply trying to make them more comfortable.

“Oh, hang on, I spoke too soon,” Joy laughed down the phone, “I think he is trying the old stiletto-down-the-sleeve trick. Yeah, he started out as a card sharp, I know.” In an instant, a handgun was in the woman’s hand. “Throw it on the floor, Kerry!” she ordered impatiently, still holding the phone to her ear. “Not you, lieutenant!” she laughed again as Nolan cursed angrily and allowed the narrow knife to fall from his sleeve to the ground. “Guess you’re right, I should have cuffed him behind his back,” Joy acknowledged down the phone. “I’ll rectify that now and tie him to a chair too. Don’t be too long now. Ciao!”

“Bitch!” the disappointed racketeer spat at the smiling woman. Joy put the phone down. “Looks like I’d better gag you too, Kerry,” she told him, producing the key to his handcuffs, “after I’ve secured those clever hands of yours behind your back!”
