GITARISUTOS: indie roleplay blog for gorillaz' guitarist noodle

written by lee. 27. cst. she/her.

my rules are pretty lax: don't be a dick, don't circumvent blocks, don't steal. i don't ship noodle with her bandmates. that's gross.

PERSONALS/MINORS DO NOT FOLLOW. YOU WILL BE HARDBLOCKED.

NOTE: i accept gorillaz lore when i want to/when it suits my narrative. i view the band's history as having moments of exaggeration/elaborate metaphors. i am not comfortable writing noodle as a minor unless i know you well. most threads will be set post-humanz (phase 4).

name. noodle nicknames. none. just noodle. age. primarily mid 20s - early 30s, verse dependent appearance. short black hair (sometimes dyed); almond shaped dark brown eyes; light olive-toned skin; colourful outfits. born. 31 october, scorpio. gender & sexuality. cis woman. pansexual. occupation. lead guitarist for british rock band gorillaz residence. townhouse in london, england. quick traits. pensive, introverted, impatient, curious, caring. family. unknown parents. the other members of gorillaz, in a way.

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia – 5.09: Mac and Dennis Break Up

@voidpill sent: i'm not bothered they say i slept with them.

boy does she have some news for him.

"you actually did sleep with them."

she'd really rather not think about the boozing and smooching and snorting. although there is always a spark of joy whenever she gets to correct her bandmates.

"saw the whole band file out of your room one night."

[gitarisutos]

it's been like almost 30 yrs now i think we can give noodle a last name my pick is gorillaz. noodle gorillaz.

"-so we can do this at one of your label's studios, or I can hire one, but that'll cost you, or I have a home studio we can work from."

Flynn has politely tilted his head towards the other as he speaks.

"Does that sound good?"

[gitarisutos]

the allusion to kong studios sends a prickle up her back. noodle is trying to run from that place. not to it.

she's quick to divert to a preferable option. "your home studio would probably be best. where are you based? between you and me, i really want something that's outside the city."

@escapedartgeek sent: the whole society's going down the tubes.

noodle finds herself on the opposing side. the world is a beautiful, multi-faceted place. others might find that point of view a load of hippie bullshit but what's the alternative? apathy? cynicism? there's too many people and experiences and places to afford that way of thinking.

"that's a sad way of looking at things, isn't it?"

[gitarisutos]

@voidpill sent: if you don’t know, a sharknado is a phenomenon where a tornado sucks up a shoal of killer sharks, then spins across the land eating and destroying everything in its path.

"so pretty much what it says on the tin, eh?"

the concept is pretty silly and it makes noodle giggle. she has to see the shark-infested tornado for herself. god knows when they're going to have another movie night like this.

"let's watch it! you've intrigued me!"

anyone remember when gorillaz x fortnite was announced & there was a random wave of trying to cancel murdoc & isn’t that the most accurate thing to happen to murdoc

no, the tension isn't lost on him ; in this moment, noodle standing that still, that composed ─ is somehow worse than anything else. her silence crawls beneath his skin, prompting a green palm to drag down his face, attempting to peel the irritation off his own, bumpy features as he restlessly paces. not meeting her gaze as he circles around.

the mention of his robot snaps him back, and murdoc soon stills. all kinds of emotions stirring, though anger is the only admissible one ; his usual, devastating form of defense mechanism. he was everything but weak. ' oh, don' start with tha', ' murdoc spits, pointing a crooked claw at the other's chest when he finally looks at her. ' cyborg this, free will tha' . . . you lot never stop bangin' on about it ! '

the band was basically an ecosystem, gorillaz' god their spine. they were always going to be on his side. ' . . . don' blabber out things you don' mean. '

[gitarisutos]

"i'm not taking it back. i said what i said."

in her absence, noodle wasn't expecting a full on mourning procession. that's too dramatic. she did, however, figure there'd be a bit of standstill, maybe a hiatus. anything to acknowledge the noodle-shaped hole in the line up. she's the guitarist, after all. that ought to count for something.

a metallic replacement was not on the bingo card. not even in the suggestion box.

to say it hurts is an understatement but the brunt of the current frustration comes from the fact that murdoc expects her to just accept it. maybe the schtick would have worked had she been a little younger, a little more naive. she sees things differently now that she's crawled out of hell. literally.

"i'm not joining the tour."
