Starting! Anyone can join this anytime, though. 

@Poinsettia, I think Ori would get along with Quinn or Indy the best. What do you think?

AGH I'M LATE (as usual XD)

anyway is it okay if i bring an OC/AE? (he's from a book but that won't come in) I've been meaning to introduce him. here's his form. Also i can’t be sure that i will be very active sorry if i’m not

Name: Toad Aphelion 

CBer or AE: OC/AE

Pronouns: he/him, and probably some cool neos but i haven’t chosen any (and he’s great what the heck). Idk if he’s male or nonbinary or both or whatever; probably both. he's very masc though (but not always the most passing)

Bringing: a bunch of yarn and crochet hooks and probably some fidgets and whatnot (he has to do something with his hands constantly), several rubber ducks (it’s a whole joke thing in book), a bunch of random junk in the bottom of his bag because he’s basically never cleaned it out. He made and decorated a bunch of gorgeous sugar cookies and candy cane-shaped cookies to bring. he forgot to actually bring them. He is deeply upset. (i may retcon that if we need extra cookies. If there’s magic in this setting maybe he can grab them idk) 

Appearance: He’s Japanese/Hawaiian/some form of Latino (I changed his race really recently so i haven’t figured that out) Medium dark for light brown skin, freckles, dark brown eyes, curly/wavy dark brown hair that’s always frizzy and messy because he can never sit still long enough to do anything with it. He uses a white cane because he’s visually impaired (he has peripheral vision loss from glaucoma when he was a baby), only it’s not exactly white anymore; he’s covered it in puffy paint drawings. He has cat ear headphones basically look like cat ears and are basically an accessibility aid; they can connect to maps and read text on his phone and can also do noise canceling (he probably has auditory processing issues), that sort of thing. His facial features are a mix of all of his races and nobody can ever tell exactly what he is. He’s wearing a heavy black denim jacket covered in pins and patches as always (leather jackets were too expensive), khaki pants and a black belt with white detailing, and black high top shoes with white soles and laces. He’s carrying a heavy black backpack with even more pins. On his wrist is a wide silver wristwatch that he desperately needs and always forgets to use. Today, he’s also wearing a bright green bow tie. Does it go with his outfit? No, not at all. That’s only the entire point.

Other: He has ADHD combined type (his hyperactive symptoms are quite noticeable though). He gets angry and defensive very easily, but also has no self esteem and will not defend himself from most things if he’s not angry; he expects things to go badly, but is really, really optimistic about what’s going on at the moment (ie, doesn’t see things as bad/doesn’t realize that he’s hurting). He can be very, very petty. He basically doesn’t know how to go beyond surface-level interaction (there’s no real point to him, vulnerability is scary, and he’s just never really had it before), but is incredibly social and always joking and blurting random stuff out (sometimes stuff he shouldn’t say). He’s very silly :D He can also be incredibly reckless, doing stuff he shouldn’t just to make things interesting for once. He’s also really sentimental about certain things (though he has a sad backstory i won’t get into which complicates it).  I’m probably getting too in-detail (while still very surface level for him XD) but anyway he’s basically a recklessly silly, traumatized, angry and sometimes violent cinnamon roll :DDDD he'll probably cause some trouble XD

Also his visual impairment is a relatively new thing so I may get things wrong. I will work stuff in for my sections but it’s okay if you guys mostly ignore it; i don’t expect you to do that much research XD (although you should totally learn about/talk to/etc blind people!) 

also he's probably like 30 minutes late. without the cookies. XD 

Anyway let me know if the OC thing isn’t okay. i can't sit still long enough to read this through let's hope everything's right XD
