✨🏴‍☠️OC Felony Bingo🏴‍☠️✨

This tag made me holler, @fortunatetragedy 😂✨ I HAD to do this for Peter.

(Thank you for the tag as well, @paeliae-occasionally , @lychhiker-writes , and @fantasy-things-and-such ! ✨)

It should surprise absolutely nobody that Peter almost got a blackout. However, same reason as Jamie��s OC Royston, he was not around a lot of technology (but he would totally commit those crimes) 🏴‍☠️✨

Unless you count ✨the infamous whale arc 🐋✨, I think Peter’s in the clear for Animal Cruelty 👀

Here’s the template and link to Peter Hart so you can see all of these crimes in action 🏴‍☠️💛✨

OC felony bingo!

Thanks @agirlandherquill for the tag! This one was super fun lol

Filled out for Caldren!

No actual bingos although he may have committed grand larceny at some point, I just don't know the definition well enough to say. He's also come very close to blackmail except he's enough of a smooth talker when he does it that you can't actually accuse him of it.

✦ OC Felony Bingo 2 ✦

Sooooo I was reminded of this and keep thinking of Kieran Caron (who, somehow, people have STILL not questioned the name of???) and Rising From the Ashes in general, so I just HAD to continue this. 😂

For context: Caron is in charge of a famous knight's college. Like, they train people and help them develop the skills and morale in order to become knights. Very similar to old-fashioned irl knights. Like high status and all!

KIERAN CARON

I'm not going to lie, I 100% had NO IDEA he committed THIS many crimes before this. I broke out laughing several times throughout making this, haha. 90% of them are unknown or not associated with him though!

The "green" ones are things he could/will be caught on by massive technicalities later on in RFtA. Y'know, by people wanting to get him in as much trouble as possible.

SAMMY BARDALES

My boy Sammy gets THREE bingos!!! Like Caron's, I did Sammy's from the POV of later in the story, where he's committed a good bit more crimes, haha. Also similarly to Caron, Sammy's crimes prior to the story are strongly unassociated with him, haha.

Actually, the funny thing? Bardales isn't even his last name.

The funnier thing?

One of the early scenes of RFtA literally has Caron questioning Sammy about some things--which brings up Sammy's lack of a legal background--and then helping him create a fake legal identity for himself.

Though the actual creation of Sammy's fake background probably isn't going to be included, haha. Just the discussion that leads up to it.

EDIT: while looking back over this, I remembered that Sammy explicitly never kills within the story and had to fix this!!! He can technically still be charged with it for other reasons/doing things that could reasonably lead to the deaths of others, but never purposely harms to the degree of murder!

I'll stop with just them two, but omfg it's just the FUNNIEST thing to me realizing just how many crimes my characters commit, haha.

Blorbo Felony Bingo

Your blorbos have committed so many crimes. That's what makes them a blorbo. It wasn't their fault, obviously.

Which crimes exactly?

Rules: mark off the felonies that your blorbo has committed (not necessarily been convicted of)

I'm going to tag @writernopal, @talesofsorrowandofruin, @vacantgodling, @mrbexwrites and ANYONE ELSE! Use this on your fandom blorbos, too, it doesn't have to be OCs.

Here's Silas Chrissie's sheet (below the cut):

Listen, Silas was framed for tax evasion, and the kidnapping was just a misunderstanding, but the rest...?

(there's a few of these he also WOULD commit if he were given the chance lmao)

Thanks for the tag @spideronthesun!

Blorbo Crime Bingo

Rules: mark off the felonies that your blorbo has committed (not necessarily been convicted of)

Let's do the pack of criminals that is the Honor's Outcasts quartet

First up is Izjik! Not a bad spread. Most of the threatening an official, perjury, resisting arrest stuff came from her encounter with the Illarian church. On Illaros, they function as a legal body, so I'm gonna count it

Now for Sepo! Kind of slim pickings tbh, but his crimes are worse than some of the others, so it balances out. As an aside, both he and Izjik are wanted for kidnapping, however, they didn't really kidnap Twenari so much as rescue her from a shitty home situation, so I won't count it

Now for that shitty home situation! Twenari might not have directly done all this, but she was an accessory to a lot of her mom's shady dealings. The tax evasion is all her though

And lastly, the only career criminal, Djek! He mostly did robbery stuff, but I would say he played drug mule once or twice. He also killed two people, but he said sorry afterwards

My ocs might be criminals, but I can at least say that they're all nice to animals. I'll tag @winglesswriter @ray-writes-n-shit @evilgabe29 and anyone else who wants in!

Here's your blank :)

I dug deep and I think the only one that could play this, is Azul from "The Memories of The Future" so, here it is~

There's a couple of things to unpack, but funnily enough, arson is actually going to be a plot point in the story~

Identity theft is basically what he does on a daily basis. (He can shapeshift so it's his favorite pastime)

Anyway, here the tamplate:

OC felony bingo tag

Thanks for the tag @agirlandherquill @theink-stainedfolk @drchenquill

I’ll be filling out this card for Fen:

Nothing… guess there’s a first for everything.

Ok, confession time everyone: I may have cheated a little here. I did this for Fen at the beginning of the story. By the end, that’s a different story (no pun intended). But that would spoil some major plot points, and while I’m alright with giving away minor stuff that doesn’t have much bearing on the main story, I do not want to (intentionally) give away anything too important. Sorry to disappoint you all.

Open tag for anyone interested!

✦ OC Felony Bingo ✦

As a writer whose characters are ADDICTED to crimes, I absolutely had to do this the moment I saw it! (Aka, thank you @the-golden-comet for the tag!)

The only SaS character who's getting this treatment is Crow, since they're the only MC who's really committed crimes (I mean Freya does while on the run, but hush).

The Arcane Rifts is getting callout cards on Tazin, Gene, and Mislav. I'm going to be grabbing the post-book 2 versions of their characters for this!

TAZIN

I want to clarify: the only reason Tazin didn't commit the other crimes is because he hasn't had the chance to.

Also, question: does it count as animal cruelty to abuse your crush's secret ex-boyfriend who's distinctly inhuman and is, in fact, comparable to a satyr? If yes, he's done it. If no, he's probably found another way to fill that box.

GENE

Unsurprisingly, Kavo's infamous crime duo, Volos and Svarog, have committed basically all of the same crimes! Unfortunately due to racial discrimination, Svarog wouldn't have been able to get away with police impersonation and/or identity theft, so Volos had to do it for him.

(Side note: referring to him as Volos has reminded me why Green is one of the colors I associate with Gene, haha. Unfortunately, his ex-boyfriend has that color taken so. Sorry, Volos.)

MISLAV

Aaaand here we have Mislav! Two bingos for our resident berserker!

And last but not least...

CROW

Sorry this is hard to read, I didn't have any more colors besides yellow and I don't think that would've been much better (just worse in a different way). Besides--I think it's more than fitting for them tbh! Crow's crimes are still undiscovered and unassociated with them to this day!

Also, I just want to say, it amuses me to no end that one of the few crimes Crow hasn't committed is treason. Of all things! That's what my characters are best at committing!

(Also there's other reasons I find it funny that I will not be sharing at this time.)

*:･ﾟ✧*:･

On our way back, we stopped at the wharf because there was a bunch of commotion surrounding the police pulling a body out on a stretcher. We stopped and asked someone what happened, and we were informed that the body was none other than Scooter Grubbs. A lifelong pogue who somehow recently came into possession of, drumroll please, a Grady White. Which was now missing. My heart absolutely broke for his wife, Lana, as we saw her fall apart next to the stretcher. I truly couldn't imagine. Watching it was bringing me to tears, so JJ grabbed me by my shoulders and rubbed my back as he guided me back onto the HMS Pogue.

The drive back to the chateau was almost silent. Which we can hardly ever stand, but I could tell we were all just thinking so hard about what on earth happened. Why did Scooter end up with a gun, that much cash, and a Grady White?

We hop out of the boat back at John B's house, and Pope senses that now is the time to break the silence. "So, we saw nothing. We know nothing. We need to have total and complete amnesia."

"Pope is right," JJ says, unloading Kie's cooler from the Pogue. "Deny, deny, deny."

"Guys, we also can't keep that money JJ took," Kie says, shaking her head.

"And the gun!" I add, looking around at everyone to scan their responses.

"Yes, definitely the gun." Kie agrees.

"Kie, not everyone can afford unlimited data plans." JJ rebuts, John B agreeing.

"JJ, the girls are right. This is insane." Pope says. As I said, our collective voice of reason. "We have to pass that off to Lana Grubbs."

"It's bad karma waiting to happen," Kie says.

"Not to mention a felony," I mumble, crossing my arms. "We've got to go totally dark."

"Exactly, and keep the money. No one will know we took anything if we don't return it." Kie, Pope, and I all simultaneously roll our eyes at JJ.

"No... No way." John B says, shaking his head as we all get up on the porch of the chateau and I lean on the edge of a chair.

"What? Why?" JJ asks, turning his hat backward as he approaches John B.

"Just think about it, this is Scooter Grubbs we're talking about. Some dude that's been buying cigarettes individually at the porthole. I have literally seen him beg for change in the grocery store parking lot so he could pay for gas." John B is right, this guy has never had a dime to his name. "We're talking about a dirtbag marina rat whose never had more than forty bucks in his pocket and all of a sudden-"

Kie cuts him off. "He's got a Grady White..."

"Just saying." John B says, raising his hands, mocking surrender as he sits down next to me.

"There's only one way he could have got his hands on all this shit," JJ says and I raise my eyebrow at him. "Well, two. One: Prostitution," I scoff. "or two: square groupers." He says smugly.

"Oh my god, the hurricane... He was smuggling." I say quietly, seeing the realization show up on everyone else's faces as well.

"Bingo, Snowy. I guarantee he was using it for straight smuggling. Probably a serious amount of contraband on board."

*:･ﾟ✧*:･

Later that night, of course, the topic gets brought up again. It's pretty much the only thing we can talk about tonight, one of the only things on our minds.

We find ourselves sprawled across John B's room at this point. John B sat at his window, with Pope on the bed, Kiara on a chair, and JJ at the window opposite of the bed right next to me. JJ leans back into me after Pope snatched the money in question from his hand. "For the record, if that is a smuggling ship with illegal contraband inside of it. . . It probably belongs to someone else."

Kie shrugged. "Minor details."

Pope continued as if he hadn't heard her. "They could come looking for it. Taking it would be catastrophically stupid."

JJ leaned forward and snatched the money back. Spreading it so they could all see the multiple hundred dollar bills as he said, "Right. Well, stupid things have good outcomes all the time." He glanced over his shoulder, gaze meeting mine as he grinned. I return the amused smile as JJ looks toward the others. "All we need to do is figure out a way to get into the cargo hold of that wreck. Until then, we just lay low. Act normal."

Pope seemed skeptical, as usual. "Right. And how exactly do we do that?"

My gaze meets Kie's, and slow smiles grow on our faces, and we raise our eyebrows at each other; we're definitely thinking the same thing.

Kie looks towards the others, grin widening. "Kegger?"

*:･ﾟ✧*:･

After we grab the keg and a few twelve packs for ourselves we make it out to the beach with cups, drinks, weed, and recycling bags (in Kie's case) in hand. It isn't long before we start to draw a crowd made up of kooks and pogues alike, along with some tourons. "Chum for the sharks", as John B would describe them- basically tourists on a vacation with their families, hoping to escape their parents for the evening.

John B and I are in charge of filling cups and handing out beers until we realize enough is enough and we're here to party. Not be bartenders. To be fair though, it was an almost "one for you, one for us" vibe, and we were already pretty drunk by the time the sun starts to set.

"Snowy! Come here!" Kie calls to me, holding out her hand. I can smell the weed on her, so it's clear what she and JJ have been up to.

"Hey." I smile, wrapping my arms around her waist when I walk up. "What can I do for you, Kie?"

"Nothing, I just missed you." Kie smiles, hugging me back.

"Kie, I need to borrow Snowy for a sec if that's cool-" It's JJ, and his arms are suddenly in between us pushing us apart as we both start laughing.

"Yeah okay, steal my friend, JJ. So rude." Kie giggles, pointing her fingers at her eyes and then at JJ as she turns to walk over to John B and Pope, where they're playing beer pong.

"What is up with drunk girls, man? You get one drink in you and just start mackin' all over each other." JJ asks, laughing as he has his arm around my waist, guiding me in the opposite direction.

"You're so dramatic, we were just hugging." I laugh, rolling my eyes and giving him a gentle shove, almost falling back myself in the process as I stumble over my own feet.

"Right- yeah so you're actually way more drunk than I thought you are, so maybe we should start to head back."

I'm not even that drunk. "I'm not even that drunk JJ, come on. What are we doing anyway? Where are you taking me?" I ask him, reaching up and putting my arm over his shoulders. It's not the most comfortable, since he's a decent amount taller than I am.

"A walk! What, I can't take my favorite girl for a walk these days?" JJ laughs, glancing back behind us. "Do you want to sit?" He asks, stopping. I nod and smile as he takes his shirt off, placing it on the ground for us to sit on.

I sit down on his shirt, crossing my legs in front of me and looking out at the sunset. JJ joins me, leaning his arm back behind me to hold himself up, and so I can lean back into him as well.

"It's beautiful," I say quietly, leaning my head on his shoulder and I can feel JJ's eyes on me.

"Yeah.." He agrees.

I glance down the beach at the party, seeing everyone back there having fun, the music sounds so distant.

"I miss BC." I sigh, my drunk mind letting me speak my every thought.

"Why?" JJ chuckles a little bit, pushing some of my hair out of my face with his free hand. "You wouldn't be a pogue and be friends with the coolest kids in the OBX if you were still up there. Besides, have you ever seen a sunset like this?" He asks.

I nod. "Yeah.. the sunsets back home were beautiful. This is too, duh, but so different. Watching the sunset over the mountains was something else. I miss watching them during bush parties. The vibe was similar, but everyone was miles from home with no service, everyone had a tent or their cars were loaded with blankets to sleep in, and you were surrounded by trees, sometimes on the side of a lake. The sun would start to set, then we'd get a bonfire going, and everyone would reek of smoke for the next week. It was.. special. Kegs would take me with him, I was too young to drink so he never let me, but he wanted to get me out of the house." I ramble on and JJ just listens. You wouldn't think he's a good listener, but he really is.

"I'm glad you moved. Maybe that's selfish of me." He says, smiling at me, his hand still on my cheek. I smile back. I can't tell if the beer just isn't sitting well, or if I have a million butterflies suddenly flying around in my stomach. I think it's the latter. "Maybe, if you don't mind, one day, we can all take a trip up there. I think that would be sweet." JJ suggests.

"Thanks, J. That's a nice idea. I don't know if the Twinkie would survive, though..." I trail off, getting more nervous as he stares into my eyes, scanning them, I wonder what he's thinking about. His eyes darted down for a split second to my lips, and I suddenly know. I should want this. I've been obsessed with him for years, I should want this, but something in my gut tells me I don't. I'm scared he'll just shut me out again- that he is just doing this to be cruel. "Maybe we should head back?" I ask, starting to get up. "It's getting pretty dark, I don't have my phone," I explain brushing off my butt and legs to make sure I'm not covered in sand. JJ gets up next to me silently, shaking off his shirt and putting it back on as we start to walk back.

"I just saw Sarah Cameron. She's here." Kie says, approaching us quickly as we rejoin everyone.

Translation: Sarah Cameron? Kook Princess, she has all of the boys in Kildare County falling at her feet. Kie's ex-best girlfriend- before me. Currently, her worst enemy. Daughter of Ward Cameron, real estate god of the Outer Banks, and younger sister of, you guessed it, Rafe Cameron.

"Oh god," I sigh, I already know this won't go down well if any contact is made. "I wonder if Rafe is here," I ask, more to myself than to Kie.

"What, Rafe? Why?" She asks me, tilting her head to the side and I can feel JJ's gaze burning into me, making me blush.

"No reason, I was wondering if maybe Kegs was here, they're hardly ever apart."

"Right, well if Sarah's here, that means Topper is here. If Topper is here, Rafe and Kegs are probably here, so yeah." Kie says, pausing for a second of confusion partway through her sentence so she could remember what she was saying.

I nod slightly and scan the crowd, looking for anybody familiar. John B walks us to us, wrapping his arms around me and Kie's shoulders. "How are my favorite girls?" He asks, rubbing our heads to mess up our hair. They know we both hate it. "Having fun?" He asks, just as I see Kegs approaching me, quickly. I push John B off and start to walk towards my brother, so he doesn't get involved with my friends. I notice he's with Topper, but no Rafe today. The beach parties were never his scene, though, as far as I know.

"Snowy, what are you doing?" Kegs asks me, he's angry, of course.

"Nothing! Jesus Christ- I can't hang out with my friends for one night." I say, pushing him back angrily. He hardly budges. "What do you want?"

"Sarah said she saw you making out with JJ," Kegs said, and I hear someone walking up behind me.

"Hey, yeah so that literally didn't happen." It was JJ, and he cut in before I could explain the same thing.

"You're a fucking liar," Kegs said, getting up in JJ's face now, but he doesn't falter.

"Kegs. Just fuck off." I sigh, running my hand through my hair. "She didn't see anything."

"I'm not lying, man. I promise you, the second I get the chance to mack on your sister, the whole damn world will know." JJ says, taking a step closer to my brother, moving so he's standing in front of me. "I'll call you personally." In shock, I look back at Kie, seeing her put her face in her hands and shake her head- even Pope and John B can see that that was not the right response.

I can see Kegs get super tense, and he pushes JJ back slightly and raises his arm, but I step in and grab his wrist. "Don't you dare, Kegs! Are you kidding?" I say, trying to prevent him from taking a swing at JJ. "He's just trying to rile you up, he's literally joking."

He's breathing heavily, refusing to look at me. "Kegs, you're drunk. Go the fuck home." I say, trying to shove him back again. Just then, Pope comes in and wraps his arms around me, lifting me up and pulling me back, as John B steps in next to JJ. They can tell that I'm not making a difference here. "No! Pope, seriously put me down. Nothing happened, my brother is being a dick." I try to explain. "Sarah's a fucking liar!" I shout, pointing my finger at her as I try to wiggle out of Pope's grip- but it's almost hopeless.

"Watch your mouth!" Topper says angrily, beginning to walk over.

"Hey, man, wait, she didn't mean it," Pope says, trying to diffuse the situation as he covers my mouth with his hand. I'm so mad, but more embarrassed right now.

Just then, I hear gasps and grab at Pope's arms as his grip loosens on me, JJ threw the first punch after my brother wouldn't. Fuck.

"Kegs! Kegs don't- I'm sorry, don't hurt him!" I shout, feeling tears run down my cheeks now as Pope quickly dropped his hand in shock. "Leave him alone!" It didn't matter. They start fighting, and JJ pushes my brother back, turning for a second to catch his breath.

"Dirty fucking pogues.." Kegs says, making John B turn from JJ's side and shove my brother back again.

Kegs is fucking delusional.

He pushes John B back into the water, and they keep fighting despite all of us screaming.

"Kegs, please! Stop!" I shout, but I can tell neither of them can hear anything. "What do we do?" I ask my friends, and when they all stand in shock, I run from Pope's grip and grab my brother, who's now kneeling over John B, whose head is in the water.

"He's drowning him- JJ, do something!" I hear Kie say, as I try desperately to push Kegs off, but he lets go of John B with one hand to shove me off of him. Pretty much as soon as I hit the water, everyone gasps and then gets quiet. Very uncharacteristic for fight spectators, until I hear a click, and push my wet hair out of my eyes and see what's happening.

"Yeah, you know what that is, your move, broski."

"Oh, my god." I start backing up, scrambling to stand up. Kie is already at my side and I hug her, hug her so hard, and put my face in her shoulder, pretending that this isn't really happening. It doesn't work. I peek back up to watch, to make sure everything is okay. That Kegs is okay.

"JJ, stop!" Everyone is yelling at him now.

Kegs lets go of John B and raises his hands, I look briefly over at Topper and Sarah and they look freaked. We all are. Everyone on the beach starts to run as JJ turns and raises the gun in the air. "Okay, everybody listen up!" He shouts. "Get the hell off our side of the island!" He shoots two warning shots up into the air.

John B finally sits up out of the water, and Kie and I rush over to him. "John B, oh my god." I give him a big hug and then Kie helps him up as I run over to my brother who's starting to leave.

"Kegs! Kegs are you okay?" I ask, but he still won't look at me. "Kegs, look at me!" I shout and he stops, turning to me angrily.

"You're psycho friend just put a gun to my fucking head- Snow. Just wait until Mom and Dad hear this. I could have died! Your friend tried to kill me!"

"You were drowning John B! He wasn't going to shoot you he just wanted you to stop. Please, Kegs.." He clearly didn't want to hear it, and he starts walking away, catching up with Topper and Sarah.

Shit.
