Nothing says ‘SUMMER OF FUN’ like getting pinned down and strangled by your murderous-escaped-convict father, the musky cabin walls only reaffirming to your senses that it’s actually happening, and then of course there’s his face hovering above yours, a happy little grin as if you’re out playing ball; you did that right? Or was daddy hitting the bottle too hard to pay you any mind? We just don’t know. Suffocation, no breathing, don’t give a fuck if you . . . fall out of bed and get a really gnarly sprained wrist to match? So weird though that you’ve got a ever so faint collar of strangles. That’s what we’re gonna call it here anyways. Truth be told, daddy wasn’t there, but good luck getting un-shook because man, he so was, right? How could he have not been?
Regina’s definition of summer camp was a bit more Parent Trap and less Night of the Living Dead. So, when the van dropped Regina off, she was shell shocked, to say the least. The cabins were practically falling apart, and within five minutes of being there, a mouse had the audacity to scurry across her Gucci slides. If she wasn’t allergic to sweating, she would have chased right after the van.
She grimaced as she shouldered her duffle bag and looked around like a lost puppy. Some people were already straight to work, so good for them. She finally found a boy near the edge of the murky water, finding a semi-clean place to set her things down before she joined him.
“So, how exactly are we supposed to turn this actual sewage pit into the next Coachella in one summer? Because right now, this place is more tragic than Trisha Paytas on a kitchen floor.”
I was wondering how long I’d have to wait to see some Marvel babies up in this joint. Fate, welcome to the verse! JOHNNY STORM, ACCEPTED! Please excuse the lack of accepted graphic, your application woudn’t paste for some reason.
OOC INFORMATION
NAME, AGE, TIMEZONE: Fate and I’m over 21.
ACTIVITY LEVEL: ooc? 8-9 via discord, ims etc for plotting, checking in, etc. ic? 6-7 due to having a job with an unpredictable schedule. but I can queue nongroup replies I spitfire owed group replies.
TRIGGER ACKNOWLEDGEMENT: Yes, I understand.
ACTIVITY ACKNOWLEDGEMENT: I realize the 6/7 may be off-putting, but I say that just in acknowledgment of my weird schedule. For instance, this week I only have one day off. The following week? Four days off. I can be quite productive and I plan on joining with one of the muses I’m always higher energy for.
NOTES: Er, if photo content of gore is going to be posted, I would appreciate it being tagged and knowing that tag ahead of time so it can be blocked. Also, if you need more chaos for the fire, the muse’s (abusive) father is canonically a convicted murderer who escapes from prison so feel free to have fun with that if you want.
IC INFORMATION
NAME, AGE, SEXUALITY: Jonathan Johnny Storm, 22, pansexual
FANDOM: Fantastic Four / Marvel Comics depending on how specific you wanna get
HOMETOWN: Long Island, New York
CLUBS, ORGANIZATIONS, OTHER:
Impact (but he joined it in hopes of appearing more charitable and thoughtful, thus increasing his likelihood to get laid by deep™ folks)
Super Smash Brothers Club
FIVE POSITIVE TRAITS:
Stays really loyal to his friends, will come to forgive them for just about anything
First to volunteer for anything that requires heavy lifting or handiwork, wants the project finished asap
Spoils his friends and partners as much as possible
Trained to be brave to the point of near-recklessness, considering he used to get paid to run headfirst into fires
FIVE NEGATIVE TRAITS:
Better at taking care of other people than himself
More or less in ‘I’ll sleep when I’m dead’ mode; stays out late to party, panics over assignments, sleeps in, runs late to every class, rinse repeat
Not quite a prohibitionist but really put off and disgusted by alcohol; judging everyone his age who seems to need to have fun at a party already
Got one of those The Man/The Legend shirts as a gag gift, continues to wear it unironically
Will probably die investigating something creepy or showing off to someone cute, let’s be real
BIGGEST FEARS & PHOBIAS: Drowning, suffocating, though neither are technically phobias as they do not hinder day to day living. Swimming pool depths of water are where he starts to get uncomfortable. Living on Long Island though? Having to transport himself on ferries or through trains that went underwater that sucked and was terrifying.
SCARIEST EXPERIENCE: Almost dying in a car accident caused by his father alcoholic father. His father was driving in the wrong lane while crossing a bridge when they hit another car almost head-on. The other car was larger, moving faster than theirs and the Storm family crashed through the wooden walls of the covered bridge, plummetting into the waters below. Johnny hit his head against the window, suffering a concussion, and was drifting out of conscious by the time the water started to fill the car. His mother was DOA.
DO THEY BELIEVE IN THE GHOSTS/PARANORMAL?: Ghosts, no. Paranormal things like demons and the devil, yes. He was raised in a very Christian household albeit is not particularly faithful.
ANYTHING ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER WE SHOULD BE AWARE OF?: In the short time the Storm family was complete, Johnny was much of the family disappointment. Instead of latching onto the hard sciences to follow in the footsteps of his doctors for parents, he was always better at handiwork and traits for blue-collar America. He got a gig working at a car mechanic shop in high school and trying to save for college at the local SUNY school. But he dropped out to become a firefighter for several years. After the encouragement of his aunt, he’s taking another (albeit late) stab at college. He’s attending now as a result of several significant scholarships offers from the school, mostly need-based but also some community service based ones for is time in the NYFD.
ANY CHANGES TO YOUR CHARACTER THAT SHOULD BE NOTED?: Obviously no superpowers, slightly changed the details of the car accident to make it more realistic and left it very vague as to whether he had a sister or not.
WHY IS YOUR CHARACTER PARTICIPATING IN THE PROJECT?: Johnny’s in it to get the ultimate party destination at the end of the day. But he knows his way around a toolbox and electrical equipment so he can be trusted to do a fair amount of repair work.
