In my defence, the moon was full and I was left unsupervised.

Working at the diner meant getting up early and putting on a good face no matter how depressed Sean really was about her life now that she was outed as a mutant. Still, by the time she had make-up and jewelry on, she was all smiles and saying her hellos to her co-workers as she arrived at the dinner and slipped on a waitress apron. Her first customer was already seated and she scooted over to them with a pot of coffee and a grin. “Hey, sweetie, been waiting long? What can I get you this morning?”

[empathicgene]

“Tea, double bagged, milk only please, luv.” TD himself had just gotten off his own shift at the bar. Cleanup had taken forever after a particularly drunk patron had somehow managed to knock over almost an entire shelf of glasses when he threw an empty peanut bowl at the bar. “Haven’t been waiting, I’m just in. No worries.”

flora sat on a bench in the park, writing in one of her many notebooks. the writing to most people was illegible but to flora that was just the way she wrote. she could read it and that was all that mattered. when she noticed a person walking by, she looked up. “you can sit if you want. i didn’t mean to take the whole bench up.” she said quiet, shuffling herself and the papers around to make room in case the other person wanted to sit. 

[empathicgene]

“Sure y’did. I just likely wasn’t a conscious decision on you behalf,” he mused aloud, hands in his pockets, shoulders slumped forward. He declined the offer to sit by remaining standing, he hadn’t gone for a walk to sit, after all. “Writing the next bestseller, are ya?” he asked, nodding towards her plethora of papers.

OOC INFORMATION

Name: Caro/Siege ( I have used both and don’t really care which one y’all use, both are fine ! ) Pronouns: She/Her Timezone:  EST Muses: Currently, this boi TD, also Matias and Everett are my beans >:D Three random facts about yourself: Oh geez, uhm... 1) I am a very distant cousin to the Queen of England, 2) I live on a farm, 3) I have ridden on a tow-hitch before. Like just the actual hitch, not the thing being pulled by it.

IC INFORMATION.

Full Name: Thomas Drew Boodman Alias(es): T.D. Age: 51 Birthdate: August 17th Birthplace: Croydon, South London, UK Gender / Pronouns: Cis-Male, He/Him Sexuality: Bisexual, Biromantic Mutant Power: Emotion Manipulation

ISLAND RELATED QUESTIONS: ( these are mostly for mutant muses, but can be altered for human characters as well where deemed fit )

( For those captured ) Your muse had the chance to grab a single item before being snatched up by FBI, what was it? What significance does it have to your muse?

( For those that came after the rebellion ) Your muse wasn’t allowed to bring more than a single bag along with them, they’re on the run after all. What are three things that they found to be crucial to pack into their bag? What are their significance?

The keys to his favourite motorbike. It was slightly petty, but he didn’t want anyone using it so he took the keys. A small picture frame with the only photo of his daughter he has, because he misses her and always wishes he could have been a better dad. An old boxing medal, the first he ever one, back when he was a teen and still in school, and the only legal boxing match he ever won. To remind him of where he came and where he’s been since.

If your muse was able to write a letter to one person back on the mainland, who would it be and why?

His daughter. He’d want to apologize, and see how she was doing. He desperately hopes she did not inherit the X-Gene because he wants a better life for her than he got.

What’s a day in the life of your muse like?

Well, he works as a bartender, late shift so he’s generally in bed til noon-ish. Then he’ll get up, eat whatever is around and head out to mosey around the town before heading to work. He does minimal shopping but will stop to just chat with people he knows while walking around. At work he sets everything up and makes sure everything in the bar is operational, more because he likes everything to be ready then because its his job. His evening is spent pouring out drinks, listening to peoples day and cheering people up in any way he can.

If your muse had a moment to sit down and talk with someone that was anti mutant what would they say?

Probably nothing polite, ngl. A fine selection of the finest of London insults, mixed with callous insults about their mother and an icy stare.

What mutant abilities outside of their own intrigue them the most? Are there any they’d fear if they came across them?

He finds shape-shifting to be quite fascinating. He fears no power as he is well aware it is less the power and more the person who wields it who should be judged.

WANTED PLOTS / CONNECTIONS

Dependent: any gender, age range up to around 30. This person is someone who looks to TD for guidance and help, for some reason choosing the crabby Brit to be a mentor of sorts. In turn they have his eternal affection, and protection.

Frenemy: any gender, age range 35-50 ish. For the sake of appearances and morale these two look to most to be on friendly or at least amicable terms. The truth however, is that neither one can stand each other for one reason or another. Or maybe it’s just no reason at all.

Estranged Daughter: female, age range 18-22. He tried for a while to be in his girls life, but she was not supposed to happen. At least not with a woman he couldn’t stand as her mother. He eventually felt it was best to stay away, keep that toxicity away from his daughter. But now, especially recently, he regrets not being there for her, for missing all those things a dad should be there for and is making attempts to reconcile.

✧ ━━━ 「 TIM ROTH, cis-male, he/him 」did you hear that THOMAS DREW ‘TD’ BOODMAN just arrived on mutant island? I heard the FIFTY YEAR OLD is on the island because of USING HIS POWERS AGAINST HUMANS. we are excited to see how they use EMOTIONAL MANIPULATION around the island, they are sure to be useful in the future. i’ve heard rumors going around that they’re a scrapper & judgmental, as well as protective & compassionate. in due time, we’re bound to unravel the truth. will T.D. survive the island? ╳ CHARACTER AESTHETIC: cold metal, wrapped fists, cut lips, bruises, feeling of regret, taste of nickel, snapping of twigs, rain clouds, the feel of unfinished wood.

TD is sarcastic and can seem insincere and sometimes almost like a bully, but he really is all bluster. The man would do anything if he thought it would help a fellow mutant out, or even a normal human. 

He’s a motorcycle enthusiast and is working on fixing up a bike that was previously owned by one of the scientists, a 1965 Harley Electro Glide. Parts are a bit tricky to get a hold of but he is quite determined.

He also loves continually spouting out reasons why his homeland is so much better than America, and his South London accent and slang are as thick and present as ever.

*blows dust off of these blogs*  @hvlloweenheist said something about a new mutant rp ? I’ll be ready ! Not sure how many of my old bahbs would fit in but I’ll make it work :P

[empathicgene]

It had been quite a while since TD had been amongst these people gathered at this place. In fact, from rumour, it had seemed he was thought to be dead. Not surprising if he was honest to himself. He had the hood of his coat pulled up, obscuring his face, he wanted to find someone he knew he would scare the absolute shite out of.

[empathicgene]

Dis bitch is back !

So like, not ded.. SURPRISE !!!

He was taken by the Sentinel Services and held for information and that is where he has been.

But he got out and is back with the Underground

Don’t ask him what happened while he was there he won’t say anything about it.

“Girl, you need to toughen up,” Elyse smirked at the other. “I obviously don’t need any so go away and find someone else to bother.”
