I will happily give out customs!
I've been putting this off because I am incredibly lazy, but this is Bastien Kirtley. He's a psych professor at Columbia, in his late thirties, and "secretly" engaged to his recently graduated ex-student ([info]ainsli). He's got some very nerdy tendencies and likes some very nerdy things, but is also well-spoken and easy to get along with. A conversation with Bas is likely to devolve into him asking a few thousand questions, and the truth is that a lot of the time he just uses it as a good way to avoid talking about himself. Besides for that, he's a naturally inquisitive guy. Most things are interesting to him, and all people are fascinating. He's flirtatious to a fault, but he loves his fiancee and wouldn't dream of ever doing anything to ruin that. All in all he's a nice guy with an overabundance of confidence and an utter lack of shame. He's outgoing and friendly, and not so perfectly behaved that he's incapable of having a good time. He can be awkwardly philosophical, so he does sometimes go off on strange tangents that might not even make logical sense. He's also prone to giving advice whether people want it or not, mostly because he's usually in tune with people (due to his career and education), and feels obligated to help when he knows what to say...which he thinks is always.

I'd love to get some guy friends, some lady friends, maybe an ex or a fling or two from before he started seeing Ainslie. He has one best friend in the form of [info]pera but another would be cool. Or just comment and say you're open to something and I'll brainstorm for us!

I would love if these two could somehow meet awkwardly through Pera. She and Preston have a FWB type relationship where things have been strictly physical until, well today. They will eventually turn strictly platonic, but I think it would be interesting for these two to cross paths through her at some point. If she's down of course (which I'm sure she would be).

I can read your mind, or did you forget?? Er I guess I meant if YOU were down for it because I can read your mind better than Preston can read anyone's hers.

that sounds awesome. they're both in vaguely the same profession (though in separate institutes and on different levels), so maybe they met through a mutual friend and are somehow connected that way?

That would work. He's engaged to a french teacher in his same high school too. So Bastien would get a two for one, knowing [info]alessaforrester.

Shelby Lee loves people who philosophical and interesting. She is not only the daughter of an oil magnate but extremely smart, graduated high school early and is finishing up her degree at Princeton. She also definitely needs people who will give her honest opinions. She has a whole lot of Texas charm and would probably laugh at his flirting. I think they could be great friends.

i just want to say that i really love your face choice. not enough people pb lily and she's so beautiful! anyway, that would be wonderful. i'm sure he'd find her absolutely fascinating. they're both early grads who've been through ivy league education, so they have that in common, too. any thoughts on how they might know one another?

Aw thank you so much. She really fit what I had in mind for the character, someone young but very spunky looking and not scared of older men, lol. Well he's a psych professor, maybe she interviewed him on something psychology related that she was working on. She's an activist for environmental policies so maybe she asked for some help getting into the minds of politicians considering her upcoming wedding to one and she did under the guise it was for school.

You know, I just thought of something else. Her future husband ~vandermay has a sister with Schizoaffective Disorder. Maybe she asks him for some help with understanding that so she can be closer to her new sister in law?

maybe one led to the other? she interviewed him for her pet project, and then came back to him for help with her future sister-in-law as she already had his name, address and number? he would love to offer his assistance!

Yeah, we can definitely work on the latter whenever you'd like and maybe they've struck up a friendship about it.

Bastien can throw advice or philosophy May's way whenever he damn well pleases. She thinks he's the shit.

I offer up Kilian for a man-friend? He's also buddies with ~mycall. They can bond over Batman and other weird, hilarious things.

pera is sujin here's boss and friend, so something! it sounds like she would probably think he's pretty top notch, even if she does make fun of his philosophical rants and nerdiness (which is mean, because she's not exactly the coolest kid on the block).

i'm sure they see a great deal of each other then! he won't mind if she makes fun of him. he's not exactly the most delicate of flowers anyway, and a little good-natured ribbing is always welcome.
