HEY EVERYONE. i recognize a lot of names here so far, so hello to all of you! and hello to everyone i don't know yet. i'm laura! my personal journal is over at borntorun - feel free to add it if you want! i turned 31 this month and i feel pretty okay about that, i live in houston where i groom dogs so my schedule can be a little all over the place and i'm not always available on aim. evenings are best (except for wednesdays when i work late), and weekends can be tough because they're tiring. but i'm usually accessible via email (which is larsipoo@gmail.com) all day even if i can't actually rp. :D
i just have one character here so far: this is andre jacobs! andre is a 29 year old metahuman resident, and his lucky power is... sugar manipulation. he thinks it's boring/awful/useless/etc, which directly impacts how he feels about being in facilities and his own self-esteem and how he feels about other metahumans. andre's a nice guy, but he's pretty private, so it'll take a little warming up for him. stronger metas make him self-conscious and angry (although he knows it isn't their fault), so he's a little more reserved around them because he feels out of place. feeling lame does not mix well with feeling lucky, and he still doesn't know what to do with it. he found out he was a metahuman when he was 17, and his mother announced she was one too, so he & his sisters all moved on the off-chance one of them was too. (if someone ever wants to play one of the younger ones, i am a-okay with one of them being meta, or whatever!) andre took care of his sisters a lot during this time, so he grew up to be really responsible & devoted to his family. the second kid in the family is blissfully normal, and she went on to get married and have a kid... who turned out to be meta too. jazmin is 2 going on 3, and she's the reason andre moved to chicago from the south. he agreed to take on guardianship of her so that she wouldn't get raised by people they don't know, SO he comes with a toddler who has him wrapped around her little finger.
andre'll be working in food service, and he's very good at making candies, cakes, chocolate -- you name the sweet, he can probably do it. since this is the only useful application of his power that he can find, he's spent a lot of time learning how to bake/make confections/etc. he'll do it recreationally too, so friends can expect presents to come in the shape of a cupcake with really intricate decorations. he's totally your man for birthday cakes too JUST SAYING.
anyway, the rest of his bio is here. he'll need friends, people who know what taking care of little kids is like, ... i don't know, my brain is kind of fried right now. everything! i look forward to playing with y'all!
