Doing this so close to a mission is having me like

but i'm just gonna push through and whoever wants to do stuff can do stuff, absolutely no pressure!
I am at your disposal here, you know I want the boy so let me know where he best slots in for what you want to do with Finn

may i have a smackeral of finn and a2
Basically, Finn and Felix had their big dust up and it did not go well. He's got TBI and bones is dealing with that. Finn ICly is going to be VERY CAGEY about telling anyone the specifics of what happened both because he's a Teen Boy Who's Pride Is Wounded and also because I want to preserve Felix's CR if people would rather not know about that
but if you want your character to know and we have close CR, I'm sure we can find a way around to that
BASICALLY, for timeline, this happens after finn's dorky dating post. Probably like, the day after?
I'm going to be putting up a log that is
1.
Open Starter - Finn is unconscious/zonked on painkillers and basically not there. Anyone who wants to thread with someone else or write a little drabble of their character reacting is welcome to. This one's for you
safelybeds
2. Closed Starters - For close CR only, if you want to have something of Finn right after he's waking up and at his peak angry and frustrated, please let me know me and I'll write one up for you! These will not be super elaborate, I just want to give everyone something unique to respond to. TEEN BOY MAD ABOUT STUFF. I'm gonna cry for all of these
3. Open Starter - Finn is up and doing good and just down for chatting. Probably just general, for anybody who wants to get at him. Does not have to be close CR.
4.
Closed Starter -
simpledog bedside 'will you go out with me i'm sorry my nose is broken and i'm kinda ugly rn, also i don't have the comb i wanted to give you and also we're going on a mission but yes'
cerebrah:
SaroSaron: let me know if you guys want a closed starter or to hit me in my open prompt!! or we can also handwave stuff if you prefer, because i know mission is about to pop OFF and i feel kind of guilty making this thing happen right before a mission
straight up for some reason i thought all of april was a station month
Yakule: yessss, i think my open prompt of finn being up and awake would be perfect!!
i love them and want more. their android connection is killing me already
Don't feel guilty! I think Natasha can hit his open starter. No need to make more work for you
if you'd prefer that, of course!
These closed starters are gonna be like two lines apiece ngl LMAO
I would love a closed starter if you're up for it!!!
so whichever works for you! also please feel free to let me know how much you'd want your character to know about what happened, either here or in a PP. I'm very comfortable having Finn lie
will just have to figure out how kazuma found out is all 🤔
yujin works in the infirmary, i'm sure that he could figure that out
either going to talk to him or because yujin told him
omg finn noooo
oh no Finn!! Clarke would probably be concerned if she sees him injured and in the infirmary.
I would love to do stuff if you’re up for new cr stuff!
communism: you want a custom starter big lady?
galactic: yes ofc!! i think my open starter will be perfect for that
goodluckmodes: totally! it will be a WILD way for them to meet, waiting for the mission might be an easier situation? but i'm down if you are!
finn will definitely be like 'who are you why are you here' but that can be fun
I am down for it! Probably will hit your open starter
oh yesss Dante can poke his open starter and show up with that ice cream he owes him
i would love to do a thing !! andy does not often stop by the infirmary but she might if she heard finn was there? or it could be set after he's out
or i can do the open one, whatever is easiest for you tbh
what a way to ask someone out...
communism: i'd love to write you one! she can comment on how cool his broken nose looks
i feel like if she messaged him about something, he would be like 'oh yeah uh i'm in the doctors you wanna come see my cool bruises'
this will probably be my starter to you
derkins: YESSS, do you want a closed thing or to hit the open one?
and ikr, he's killing it. sorry, ziggy. please feel free to be like 'actually, i think i'm good'
it would be a good segue to helping pull her out of her self-isolation too
she can tell him battle scar stories
its up to you!! if you want iris for angy times or not, im flexible
if you're up for finn being a sourpuss, then i'm up for it!!
he can also be less of one if you like LMAO
a moment of being less of a pill

!!!!! idk if you wanted to keep network posting if you wanted clown opinions bUT IN EITHER CASE memememememee
gaignun: LMAO I DEFINITELY DO KEEP WANTING TO DO OTHER STUFF. i am kind of frazzled, i really thought we had all of april on the station for Idiot reasons
i will be doing everything, i just want to get this up ASAP so there's some time to thread before mission stuff goes up
not that these threads need to close, i will backtag, but you know what i mean jsdka
do you want to hit my open or do the closed?
ye sure iris should see this side of finn LOL tho he understands not wanting to talk about stuff so its probably gonna wind up being a thread of iris trying to distract finn tbh..
2 or 3?

I never assume I ever count as anyone's "close" cr cause AHHHHHH but whichever you'd feel better about/are vibing with for Yzak specifically!
gaignun: i think i would consider them close enough that finn would not be surprised to see him there!
i don't think they're like WE ARE FAMILY levels (yet), but certainly it's not a situation where he'd be like 'oh... why are you here'
"why are you here"
"because im fuckin yzak and im nosy and i stomp around wherever I wanT"
this could probably broach the topic of iris' mom
derkins: omggggg i would LOVE THIS TO BE
an opportunity for them to talk about parents!
'oh... abused by a close, older authority figure in your life? ....same hat'
yes i love this very much
Making a list for myself here...
Closed Starter- WWX
- Itachi
- Bones
- Jake
- Natasha
- Andy
- Kazuma
- Iris
- Ziggy (
simpledog if your tag load is high do not worry, we can save this for after the mission) - Sabriel
again, these are gonna be like, 1-2 lines each. nothing crazy.
I'm tempted but I might also abstain so we can save our juice for the event maybe, when you're up for that? since he and Ryu are arriving in the same group
but i'd like to handwave that Ryu at least stopped by to see how he was doing.
oh yeah, i think that works! he and kazuma could also thread at finn's bedside too
the way jake is going to be SLEEPING THERE
Oh my god him and kaz threading at finn's bedside would also be really good
Sleeping on the pillow, small
reverse post-aldhyion. how the turns table.
he'll get real small and just cuddle up next to him on his pillow it's fine
i like that plurk hid your replies, but we still both drew the same conclusion
Jake: becomes microscopic
can't catch me
He’s not even leaving on snack runs
Another starter of Jake’s arm stretching through the whole station
Ryu like "I will bring you snacks just please stop doing that"
OKAY, ENOUGH JOKES, I’m gonna start writing
If anyone wants me to change anything or add something, lmk, it is no problem!
gif of that freaky cat alien doll holding out hands going ??? ??!? ?!?!?
but i do want ciri please
I'm very happy to deliver ciri, who can comment how his face has clearly gained character, and also, who does she get to hurt (shhh ciri)
STUMBLES OUT OF BED, SMASHES INTO FLOOR WITH SHEET AROUND ANKLE, I AM DOWN FOR ANOTHER THREAD
whimsea: LMAO i love how fast these two have just become feral in that way
simpledog: READY FOR THE WORST 'WANNA GO OUT WITH ME' EVER
THIS IS THE BEST WORST WAY TO GO ABOUT IT
look it's exactly her brand, plus she's like even i didn't do this WHO DO I FUCK UP
simpledog: he looks so much cooler than usual, in finn's personal estimation. it's the perfect time.
whimsea: i love that this means that finn is not gonna tell her shit. 'i ran into a wall really fast'
> probably speaks like that heavily breathing guy from hey arnold
yep exactly, she won't believe him but that's just what it is, not like she'll make him say (that's rude and also it's just setting her bar lower for all around trust, this isn't a bad thing for me)
simpledog: GOD... he definitely is. thanks for this, i'm writing that into the top level.
whimsea: (i am so here for trust issues between them, i think that is a juicy bomb just waiting to explode in a beautiful way)
finn often curates what he tells people, largely because he curates what he... allows himself to feel/believe/remember. so much goes in the vault.
if you work hard enough, you can forget anything you want
i see why he gets along well with Wei Wuxian lmaaaoooo
but yeah I'm glad, and in fairness it wouldn't just be with him, but yes it's a thing for her also not being told because other people curate what they feel she's allowed to know/able to handle. often with good intentions, and poor payoff
oh i can see you and i love the same things
If you're not overbooked, I'd love something w/ Finn and Sabriel
sarahthesilent: not overbooked in the LEAST, i was hoping you would have time! closed starter?
i'm gonna have joric somehow miss this, otherwise he'd want to break someone in half.
Finn's nose'll be set before Bones leaves him to rest btw! but he'll still be a bruised little tomato for a bit
fairandbright: that totally works LMAO, that is what i'm trying to avoid. we can handwave that finn is just like 'i ran into a door super hard'
joric would take him at his word i bet LMAO
BackAgain: thank god, we can't let finn's nose get bent outta shape
yeah, that works. maybe they can run into each other during the mission instead?

what would he look like without his iconic nose??
fairandbright: yes! the advantage of finn being there for a month before joric arrives is i imagine he will look totally fine
so we can honestly have him miss it completely
the more i think about it, the more i think that will be finn's cover story
i don't even feel like it's something people won't believe
'i was running around and tripped and fell into the wall' sounds like something he would do
it's fine Finn he'll do some Trek bs and give u a better nose
the icon with Finn's tooth missing is so good
the discomfort of finn w/a nose is universal in canon
Finn with a nose really changes his whole face
them giving him a nose and eye whites to make people uncomfortable about the alt-reality episodes was an expert move tbh
sure works!! i'm uncomfortable!
me, writing this log:
also me:
whimsea: belatedly, is ciri going to hit his open comment or do you want a closed starter? i was originally thinking the latter, but this is set after their interaction w/ciri going hogwild in the sim room so
i could actually totally see her being one of the early comers
simpledog do you want to handwave that ziggy came to visit him earlier? i'm setting finn asking her out literally the day before they go on the mission, but he's been in the infirmary for a week or so prior to that. i'm good with us handwaving that she did or saying that finn was like 'please don't come actually'
like i'm sure he was like that regardless, but whether she would listen to that or not is my question LMAO
whichever works best for you! she'll be more invested post blowing off steam in the sim room, that whole concern about you know, friends tending to go poorly when they're hers, you can't just go getting heavily injured on her
whimsea: okay cool, then i'll do a closed starter! they're only a couple lines apiece, so that works
thumbs up!! sounds perfect
also i will be tagging our starter soon, it's big and juicy and i've been salivating for it. thank you for being so patient with me!!
hahaha hey you're all good, I'm always here for when people (including me) have time and energy to tackle threads as they do, you're all good
I’m cool with hand waving her visiting! Because she definitely would ignore him if he said not to, LMFAO. I don’t know if anyone gave her the up and up on what happened but she’ll definitely poke and prod and want more info (of course Finn could just not tel her much and drive her nuts)
(Or I should say, I don’t know WHEN she gets the info)
LMAO THAT'S WHAT I FIGURED
i was about to write this like 'they haven't seen each other until now' and then was like 'wait'
i think julia mentioned wwx talking to her
so i think she'd know the broad strokes, but not the super duper specifics
me, a couple hours ago: these starters are just going to be a couple lines
YES wwx is gonna at least give her the basics!!!! I don't know why I didn't say wwx was doing it, I was in a sleepy haze last night. 😭
LMFAO I WAS SKIMMING YOUR STARTERS BEFORE LOOKING BACK AT THIS PLURK LIKE, "A COUPLE OF LINES, HUH?"
simpledog I'll hit you up with a text thread about it tonight!

SOUNDS GOOD, I appreciate u!
