“what?  have you never seen a grown man knitting before?” klaus asks, sparing a short glance upward.  it’s a stretch to call what he’s doing knitting - sure, the needles and yarn are there, but there seems to be no end product in sight, mostly it’s all just a mess.  the diner probably hadn’t been the medium’s best choice for his attempts, but it beat staying cooped up.  “you can sit if that’s what you’re after,” klaus says with a nod to the seat opposite him, “it won’t even cost you anything.”

“maybe i’m waiting to see how long it takes before you’re tangled up and stuck in it.” mai replied with a drawl. it felt inevitable, given how poorly the man seemed to be doing. she considered for a moment before taking the empty seat. it wasn’t like she had much better to do, and she could always get a cup of coffee while she was here. “i don’t think knitting is really your calling.” she said, blunt as ever. sure, practice made perfect, but if this was his starting point he was going to need a ton of practice.

 alois was wearing his signature high-waisted black booty shorts and a dark green crop top with a purple trench coat as he walked down the street in his black thigh-high boots, a cigarette place in between his lips as he walked towards a person, just wanting some attention from anyone “do you mind showing me around this place?” he asked, raising his eyebrow.

“well i certainly couldn’t say no to one of the few people i’ve seen here so far with a decent fashion sense.” river agreed easily, a small grin on her face. so far she hadn’t found any of the answers or people she’d come looking for in ouray, so the next thing to worry about was not being bored. “i should warn you though i can’t promise it’ll be a very good tour, i haven’t been here that long and have mostly worried about finding bars.”

1. gender & pronouns

cisfemale, she/her

2. where is your hometown?

seattle, washington

3. what was your fake life like?

she was an only child and remembered being horribly lonely. she’d always been high energy with an artistic touch and while her parents did support her (mostly) they weren’t really someone to share it with. she’s had flashes of her memories but it was always written off by people she tried to tell (because of course she immediately wanted to share) as a story and she kind of believed them. mabel always was highly imaginative after all. would always take herself on little adventures that she’d scrapbook and managed to put together a small friend group to take with her. she doesn’t really know what to think now of the flashes, isn’t sure what’s going on with this place either but all of her friends went off to college while she wanted to be an artist and needed something new so she’s excited

4. where were you taken from in your canon?

at the end of the series

5. anything else we should know?

will come up with some wanted plots for her and the rest of my characters a little later

1. gender & pronouns

cisfemale she/her!

2. where is your hometown?

portland, oregon 

3. what was your fake life like?

vanya truly had no idea about her real memories for most of her life. she had a nice small family, and things weren’t perfect, sure, but she was mostly happy growing up and into young adulthood. she still had her love for violin and went to college for violin and music. she didn’t have any sense that things were wrong or any idea of anything until she was twenty five, when a bad thunderstorm triggered her powers, and with it some of her memories. she doesn’t remember everything but she does remember main events, and the terrible emotions that came with everything. she’s really not sure if she’s interested in finding her family given what she remembers, but she does want control, doesn’t want to worry about hurting people.

4. where were you taken from in your canon?

the end of season 1. as she was knocked out when it happened she has no idea about the time travel but does remember destroying the moon.

5. anything else we should know?

a little more confident than vanya usually is due to her upbringing and fake life, though her memories have made her spiral a little bit, and she’s relatively all over the place at the moment. even though she’s mostly interested in control there’s a voice in the back of her mind begging for answers that she’s trying to ignore

oh! you must be M A I! i heard you were one of the people invited to try out our all inclusive town! is it true you’re actually from AVATAR THE LAST AIRBENDER? oh! i’m sorry, you’re right. you’re just the NINETEEN year old college student. are you sure you don’t remember betraying azula? see you do! i knew it was you, you still give off that the glint of a knife underneath a sleeve, heavy dark makeup, & a monotone drawl vibe. i hope you find A WAY TO ESCAPE THE WAR here! 

1. gender & pronouns

cisfemale she/her!

2. where is your hometown?

new york city.

3. what was your fake life like?

grew up in an upper class japanese-american family. her parents had been immigrants and always had high expectations for mai and her little brother, and she did her best to meet those goals, even if they weren’t things she really cared about herself. it was easier to just be the perfect daughter than try to fight. she’s known most of her true memories for a long time, since she was a little girl, and rather than finding a way to reconcile them she just hid them. it didn’t feel like she was missing something, but rather than she’d found an out, the only way to save herself. she was sure if she ever went back to that life she ultimately would have been killed by azula when the fire nation won the war, so she did what mai has always done, and fallen into the role she was given in an attempt to keep herself safe

4. where were you taken from in your canon?

shortly after she and ty lee betrayed azula

5. anything else we should know?

a college student but also works part time at a flower shop. probably wants to drop out of college and work full time at the flower shop she was the blueprint for the goth gf change my mind

oh! you must be R I V E R  S O N G! i heard you were one of the people invited to try out our all inclusive town! is it true you’re actually from DOCTOR WHO? oh! i’m sorry, you’re right. you’re just the UNKNOWN year old archaeology professor. are you sure you don’t remember being imprisoned for killing the doctor? see you do! i knew it was you, you still give off that the click of high heels, wild blonde hair, & a blue worn diary vibe. i hope you find YOUR PARENTS AND THE DOCTOR here!

1. gender & pronouns

demifemale she/her or they/them pronouns!

2. where is your hometown?

was born in london, england but traveled frequently and was staying in thailand when she received the letter

3. what was your fake life like?

river song always knew there was something wrong with her life. she was born into the foster system, but was a difficult child and never ultimately had a stable family growing up. she spent a lot of time looking at the stars, like she expected someone to come pick her up one day. she traveled a lot, looking for what was missing in her life, and got pieces of her memories. she has already picked up two or three degrees, and has probably been married and divorced once.

4. where were you taken from in your canon?

somewhere in between being imprisoned for killing the doctor and when she goes to the library and ultimately dies.  this is a long period of time so it’s difficult to give an exact moment 

5. anything else we should know?

she doesn’t remember everything about her life just snippets.
