Obviously, it's not the most important part of a media or creative work, or even the most important or best part of meta, or fic, or fandom, or even everybody's cup of tea, but damn.
"Character loves Character??"
"Yes! Character does love Character!! They love them so much! Look at how much they enjoy each other and make each other happier!"
Even if there's no solid context, even if it wasn't meant to be read way, even if it is a total fabrication on my part; that never fails to thrill me.
Because how delightful is it, how wonderful, to see love and emotion between people, even if it is only fictional.
I don't remember everything, and I definitely don't remember when you were last around. But I'll try and help out as much as I can, okay? .v.
I'll start with my characters and go on from there:
Annie: Annie is in a relationship with Jakob Murray, has attached herself to one of Rico's newest characters Stuart Rodgers, and is slowly dropping into the pit of total and complete insanity. :'| Continuously using her powers on different people, she's able to create 'group nightmares' now, where she interweaves two dreams into one, twisted dream that the dreamers experience separately yet together. That sounded confusing. Basically what that means is that she's creating both dreams at once, so they're connected; but one dreamer gets his own nightmare, and the other dreamer gets his own nightmare. She's holding a grudge against Richard Townsend, because she believes he's not holding up his end of the bargain. Annie has in her possession a personal article of the following: Zebediah, Ezekiel, Adiel, Allen, Eli, Jakob, David, Ben Dawson and Colin Shillington. She has been using her powers on Zeb, Adiel and Allen, and will begin practicing more on Ezekiel, Eli, and David. But no worries, I'm dealing with my psycho soon. 8}
Adiel: Adiel Walker is Zebediah's little cousin who used to live in NYC, but after her mother died she came to Westfield just in time to get hit by lightning and gain the ability of teleportation. She was homeless until Christmas, living on the streets and in the public library, and made friends with Dominic, Gerry, David, and Gawain before she found Zebediah. With Zeb, she has become close with Ezekiel, Dinah the German Shepherd Zeb got for Christmas, and Allen. She's very cheerful and bubbly, but she holds a lot of secrets and is scared of a lot of things - she'll teleport when she's frightened, and often teleports to high places like rooftops. She's suffering nightmares right now, and is generally getting more and more twitchy the longer they last.
Dustin: DUSTIN'S MY NEWEST do you know him? He's Jezebel Gable's little brother - Zebediah's stepmother who gave birth to Ben and died a few years ago with Zeb's dad in a car accident. Dustin is a generally grumpy man, and he really doesn't like Zebediah or any of the Walkers. He doesn't know very many people right now, but eventually he'll drift over to Richard and become basically his bitchy lacky. It'll be good.
Rico's characters. This'll be the majority of this post. 8| -dodges bricks thrown by Rico.-
Allen: Allen seems to be suffering something health-wise, but Rico won't tell me what. He's also been getting nightmares from Annie, and that's been affecting his sleeping pattern. Lately he hasn't been feeling very fond of himself, thinking himself useless and replaceable WHICH IS ALL A BUNCH OF BOLLOCKS ALLEN. Anyhow. 8'| His father died semi-recently, so Allen inherited everything from money to land to other such things. He's become like a father-figure to Adiel, which is adorable okay. Quite recently, he fainted after a really surreal dream, and ended up in the hospital for a day or so. However, he's out now, and he just sent in his thesis about his theories on why the storm victims have the powers that they do; it's been accepted and is going to D.C. to be reviewed. So maybe some good is finally happening to my favourite Townsend.
Richard: Richard got shot in the leg by Frank, because Richard screwed up Cooper's mind and Frank really didn't like that. :'| But I think you were around for that. Recently, he hasn't been as cruel to his brother as he once appeared to be; in fact, when Allen fainted and ended up in the hospital, Richard knew something was going wrong and said something along the lines of, 'for your sake, brother, I hope everything is alright'. Meaning he somehow got himself a heart, that tinman. He and Annie are still mean girls to each other. 8v Outside of that, I'm not entirely sure what's up.
Tegan: Tegan and Aiden got married!!!!! That is literally the biggest part of Tegan's life. He's also the new head of Redding, since Wallace kind of kicked it after Evelyn used her newly acquired powers to off him. But no worries, Wallace offed her, too. 8'| It was a dramatic brawl, and Tegan got the shitend of the stick 'cause he got stuck with the business from Hell. But he's cleaning things up, should be good. He's working like a dog, though, poor bby.
Russell: Whaddup, Russell? Russell's been having a bit of a hard time recently. His health is declining because of his previous abuse of drugs and alcohol, and he was basically diagnosed with a due date in a couple years time - the due date being his death. However, he's found a solution to that and he's working on it. Outside of that, he was manipulated by Goethe into going to a rave and taking drugs and such, and he ended up giving drugs to Stuart.
Finch: Finch got framed for trying to kill Cooper a few months back, and finally the police have come in to collect. Poor bbybird got thrown into jail Rico I hate you. He was having a perfectly lovely relationship with Elliot, in which they are both in love and it was lovely. Due to that supernatural AU week, Cooper's memories came back to him and he remembered Finch and everything seemed to be going right for the little flyer AND THEN HE GETS ARRESTED yeah I'm a little emotionally involved, it's okay.
Ludo: I think Ludo's recently helped on a few rescue missions, and a bit of his past was revealed in terms of his previous girlfriend who he's not a fan of. Outside of that, I don't really know what's up with Ludo.
Leon: Leon Marquis is a new character of Rico's, and I'm including him after Ludo because he and Leon seem to have some kind of connection. Leon is a bit of a scam-artist or a crook. He's also French, stupidly adorable, and I don't trust him as far as I can throw him. I do not know much about what's going on with him, though. Sorry. .x.
Jadis: Another new character. Jadis is Tegan's secretary. She has a history with Kaelan, where he used her as his 'beard' in high school, and she actually had feelings for him. It ended badly, but Kaelan is trying to make up for it and Jadis is begrudgingly letting him. She also recently hired on Benji, Angel's character, into Redding for advertisement - though his 'uhs' bother the absolute shit out of her. She's terrifying and the kind of woman that makes me want to curl up under my desk and cry because I am nothing like her, but she's fun. That's all I really know about her.
Priscilla: So Priscilla, I hope you know her, she's the sweetheart character. Frail and dear, her house was burned down by Jeremy when he was manipulated by Goethe, so she's staying with Austin and Bob. However, because Grace is PURE EVIL and I'll get to that, Prissy is not exactly a happy camper. I'm not totally sure what's wrong, but for some reason Rico has her black-icon'd. I'm forgetting something, aren't I.
Randy: Randy had a bit of an emotional breakdown after the supernatural AU, and he hasn't really climbed out of it. This emotional breakdown worsened when his little brother, Laurie, went missing. He went kind of nuts trying to find him. He's weary and worse for wear, but I think he's trying to do something to change that.
Laurie: Laurie here was kidnapped by Jen's German evil mastermind, and he was tested on and abused and such for a long time until Thomas sent out Quinton and Ludo to find his half brother Jason, and by proxy Laurie. Laurie was pretty emotionally scarred after that venture, but AU week happened and he became better for it. But Randy didn't - one of Laurie's most recent posts was telling how his brother took off a ring and walked off, refusing to talk about his problems in Randy-fashion. Laurie has recently gotten some kind of side job by Goethe to sing on the radio - this will eventually lead to musical day, because Laurie's voice is suggestive, due to his powers.
Kat: Good lord I don't even know what's going on with my favourite psycho bombshell. I do know she tried to shoot someone at Hallowe'en, but that kind of failed. She also assassinated Charles in his hospital room, effectively breaking Justin's wee heart. However, she seems to be looking into some information for Timothy, so that's a wee bit curious.
Greg: Greg has gotten fed up with the super-powered lightning storm victims and is starting to lock down on them. He's going to arrest anyone who shows signs of being super-powered, and he's got the permission from the higher-ups to do it. If you are unsure as to what I mean, the SNA page has recently gotten updated, and I suggest you look into that. A few of the rules have changed.
Chance: Chance and David are together romantically, and I'm pretty sure Chance is letting David live with him as of now. I don't think anything too terrible has happened to him, other than the fact that Mitchell Shillington is his stalker that won't leave him the frick alone. Outside of that, I can't recall anything. But maybe I'm forgetting.
Timothy: I don't trust this guy, okay. He's kind of really freakin' creepy, and he knows Aiden, he knows Kat, and I just REALLY DON'T TRUST THIS GUY I think he's planning some things with Aiden and none of it will be good, he's so shady as fuck. 8'|
Mitch: Mitch Macgowan, ALSO KNOWN as Mikhail Vostek, was arrested after Greg decided that he was sick and tired of the super powered freakzoids. He'd been in jail since that time, but very recently he got a visitor: Goethe. It was revealed that Mitch killed Goethe's daughter back in the day on a mission, and Goethe is really not happy with him. He manipulated Mitch into wanting drugs again, even though he'd been clean up to this point, and then Mitch ran off using his super speed and things just aren't looking good for the precious bby. Goethe stop ruining all the things.
Justin: Agh, Justin. Justin's as precious as usual, though he was also a victim of one of Jeremy's Goethe-induced fires. He got caught in is dorm room and as a result has some nasty scarring on his face that he's really ashamed of. I think he's pretty much moved into Ben Dawson's place, and as usual he's going around giving people powers and taking powers away for free, because he's a sweetie like that. He became of interest to Evelyn Good, where he gave her some nasty powers because he thought he was helping her. He also gave Jason some new powers after taking away his lust-inducing abilities, and recently he's given another new Rico bby, Arty, the lust-inducing abilities. After AU week, Justin seems to have suffered some sort of post-traumatic shock and went into a heartbreaking fit that ended with him saying 'I'll be quiet' and I'm super worried about the little German okay.
Brenton: BRENTON HERE I don't know if you know Brenton Faywell but he's the kid of a rich couple and his family life sucks, okay. He's also a vigilante. Quite recently, Brenton got kicked out of his house because he stood up to his father for once, so he went out wandering. I think he's staying with Lady's Jesse right now? I'm glad he's out of that house, though, he used to get beaten by his dad and it just wasn't good, okay.
Gerry: GERRYYYY is another vigilante. He is also the librarian who used to let Adiel sleep in the library and basically those two make me squee. Want to know who else makes me squee with Gerry? Gerry and Gawain - and recently Gerry asked Gawain out on a proper date. ISN'T THAT SOMETHING THEY HAVEN'T EVEN SLEPT WITH ONE ANOTHER. 8V -shot.- Anyhow, Gerry also helped out Reyne's newer character, Quinton, with this raid against Quinton's old gang's hideout - and as a result, he and Quinton found out that they're half brothers. Dramatic music times, yes? He's basically being his crabby good Samaritan self.
Goethe: This bitch. 8'| Goethe has been screwing up everyone's lives because apparently that's what people DO. He has these powers of emotional manipulation, I'm pretty sure. Goethe manipulated Kaelan into a night of whoring himself out ('cause Goethe is a pimp); he manipulated Jeremy into setting Priscilla and Justin's living quarters on fire because Priscilla helped out Kaelan with his debt and I am not sure what Justin did to deserve a burning dorm room. He manipulated Mitch into going back to being a drug addict. He's been giving Ben Dawson a hard time. He manipulated Russell into a night of raves and drugs and just generally bad mojo. You know, I'm sure he's been fricking about with other people, too, but I can't really remember. Also it was revealed his daughter died, I'm sorry bro, I can't feel bad for you, you have been manipulating people into the worst nights of their lives.
Cliff: CLIFF BARTON is another new baby of Rico's, because we kept tossing people off of cliffs and someone said, 'wouldn't it be hilarious if there was a character named cliff' and then Rico was like, 'challenge accepted' and thus Cliff was born. Cliff's adorable, okay. He's sweet as pie and awkward and a bit of a dork. He's also got a bit of a romance-but-not-really? with Reyne's character Liam. Cliff's also got this sister in the hospital who isn't doing so well, and he visits her a lot; but when he does it makes him sad. :( But he's our happy little bubble, and I don't want him to pop. Do you hear me Rico. DO YOU.
Stu Rodgers: Also known as Stuart. I kept mentioning him earlier. STU HERE is another new baby of Rico's. He's Petronella's boyfriend, he's Quinton's cousin and nephew to another new Ricobaby, Andrew. He's also got split personality, and his more gruff, vile, inappropriate personality is Lucas, who says such things as 'I'm gonna nail her like Jesus on the cross' and such things. That was a horrifiyngly hilarious moment, I laughed and crossed myself. 8| Anyway, Stu's also got powers to bend realities - and that's where AU week comes in. After Russell, hopped up on Goethe's manipulation, gave Stu some drugs 'cause Stu wanted to be like all the other cool kids, he took a dose of E and tripped out like nobody's business. 'Cept when Stu trips out, he trips out like Annie - and that means he affected THE WHOLE TOWN. So for about a week and a few days Westfield was thrown into multiple realities - Alternate Reality Week. AU Week really messed up some people, made them think about things they never realized about themselves. Stu, meanwhile, was physically drained by the AU Week. he was also recently kidnapped by Quinton's old gang, the Dragons, and their leader, King. he was rescued by Quinton and the Enlightenment, King was killed, and all was happy bliss. 'Cept maybe not really. 8'|
Andrew: Andrew Rodgers, Quinton and Stu and apparently Gerry's uncle, is a lawyer. And he'll defend anyone with the most money. I think the last case he took on was Frank's, but I don't know how that's going. He's got his own abilities, which is handy, and he's just an amusing gay British hardass. He really wasn't pleased when Quinton's enemies came to the house and tried to cause a fuss. He and Ben also don't get along all that well, but really what lawyer gets along with another lawyer, am I right. He's Stu's guardian.
Arthur: ALSO KNOWN AS Arthur Bradley OR Arty. Arty is kind of adorable, but he doesn't like being called that. His only friend in the world, it seems, is Ezekiel, and I think he's got a big ol' crush on the giant. He's also got Jason's old powers of lust-inducing abilities. He sees himself as a villain because of this. His abusive home life was revealed recently in a short drabble, and he lives in a van. That's all I know about Arty.
Paolo: Paolo Raizada, also known as Rico's newest child. 8'| He's an Indian in Westfield for medical school, but he actually wants to be a movie star and change the world through entertainment. Seems a bit shallow, but I'm sure he has depth. His power is wind-based.
Wallace: Wallace was killed by Evelyn a few months ago, but don't worry, he killed Evelyn, too. He left Redding to Tegan, and before his death he had been torturing his nephew, Wesley, to try and figure out the secret to his immortality. That didn't work out.
Angel's characters.
David: You know David. David has recently been fired from his job at the firm he has been with since the dawn of time. Because of him being let go, he had no place to live - until Chance, the sassiest actor-slash-musician-slash-hairdresser in all the galaxy waltzed up and told him he could live with him and his kickass ferret Romeo. So they live together now, and most likely David is looking for a job. I don't know if you were around for his sister's wedding, or for the general jackassery of his grandfather, but yeah. As well, because of the AU week, I think David has decided that he needs to live his life a little more than he had been before. That'll be interesting to see.
Aiden: AIDEN AND TEGAN GOT MARRIED. Aiden also cleaned up his life beforehand. He admitted to Tegan that he was a hitman, and that made things rocky for a while - but then Tegan and Aiden figured some things out, and they got back to being the fragile happy that I know and love. The fragility of their relationship strengthened when Aiden accepted Tegan's marriage proposal. However, some of Aiden's past has been revealed, such as his father being a legitimate jackass and trying to kill off the proof that he and Jenna, Aiden's mother, ever had a relationship. Jenna's apparent 'suicide' was actually a murder made to look like a suicide, and so Aiden's knowledge of his mother's last moments is A LIE. His father's an ass. 8|
Colin: After Allie broke his wee heart, Colin wasn't having it so great. 8'| His father died, and then AU week happened, and wow it just wasn't good timing at all for Colin. However, Colin's been trying to better himself, through use of his new powers, his speech, and the way he lives his life and reacts to those around him. He saw Abe a little bit to talk about his turbulent emotions, as well. Because of AU week, Colin understands more about his cousin Forest, so I think their relationship has improved quite a bit. And Colin's talking to people again, like Jason and Paolo.
Elliot: Elliot is still the dapper-as-fuck gentleman that you probably already met. However, his life has gone a little topsy-turvy since Greg decided arresting Finch based on the sketchy evidence left behind at Cooper's attempted murder was a good idea. He's trying his best to figure out a way to get Finch out of these terrible circumstances, and the poor baby is just really worried about his baby bird, okay.
Benjamin King: Also known as Benji, I'm sure you know this lovable lug. Friends with Jakob, and a sort-of father figure to Justin, he's also the new guy on advertisement in Redding and thorn in Jadis' side - though I'm sure he's her favourite. 8v Benji's past was also revealed a little bit, showing how his pregnant wife died in a car accident, I think because she was going to visit him. He still won't talk to the person who accidentally crashed into his wife's car.
Gawain: That person's Gawain. He's the precious deaf bby of Angel's. Gawain was in a car accident, which killed Benji's wife and caused him to go deaf, as well as getting a gimpy leg. He uses his powers - the power to give people whatever sense they are missing by borrowing it from someone else - for good, going to hospitals and making peoples' day. He's also the new boyfrand of Gerry the grumpy librarian vigilante, and he's a friend of Adiel's.
Forest: Forest is Colin's cousin, and a bit of a playboy. But for reasons that haven't been outright spelled out for anyone. He doesn't believe in love, he's got a very 'devil may care' attitude, and he's kind of got the biggest crush on Zebediah since like, your crush on Ludo. 8'| He's still pretty distant, however.
Haile: Haile is Angel's newest SNA child. Congratulations, Angel, it's a boy! 8V He's pretty up-beat and perky, works at a grocery store, and doesn't seem to know too many people yet. He can turn people into stone, like Medusa. 'Cept male. A little bit of his family history was revealed recently to show that he didn't have the greatest relationship with his father, but outside of that I don't know this baby too well. Hopefully we'll learn more.
Reyne's characters.
Kaelan: KAELAN, this stinkin' vigilante. 8'| He's in a relationship with Colin Shillington, he's still practicing his powers. He's training martial arts with Zebediah and he's friends with Eli and Russell. He's also an old friend of Jadis' but Jadis really doesn't like him these days. Manipulated by Goethe into a night of whoring, Kaelan felt really ashamed of this. And then the AU Week happened, and he decided that enough was enough and that there had to be some sort of Justice League/Avengers group for Westfield. Which he has founded. He's trying to be a vigilante, and he's pretty good at it. However, most recently when he tried to break up a drug ring, he got his ass handed to him by Omar, a new baby by Reyne, and was then promptly arrested by the police. He paid his fine and got out a few days ago, and he's less than pleased, to be sure.
Cooper: Cooper. 8'| Precious baby. A few months ago Cooper got shot in the chest by Bruce, and the attempted murder was framed on Finch. After he got out, I think he's mostly been keeping to himself and healing. I don't think anything outside of the AU Week has significantly happened to him since - Reyne, feel free to prove me wrong.
Ezekiel: Ezekiel here. He's moved in with William lately, and has made a new friend in Arty. He also works at a kink-sex toy shop, but we don't say that aloud. Still as puppy-dog like as always, Ezekiel has recently been stabbed by some creepy pedophile who tried to run, after Ezekiel used his powers of persuasion to make the guy confess that he had kidnapped a young girl who was with him. He landed himself in the hospital from that stunt, but he's out now. As well, he and Arty seem...close. Maybe Arty's crush isn't one sided?
Liam: Liam is Reyne's psychic, and a doctor as well. Which is unfortunate, because every time Liam has a vision he blacks out - so if he's in surgery? Crap. Recently put on some kind of suspension from surgery, he's been suffering a hell of a lot of visions, none of which are good. He recently had a very bad vision, which is ominous.
Jason: Jason has switched his powers of lust to powers of some kind of telekinesis. He can knock things over and blow them up and such with his MIND. He was also captured by Jen's evil German and kept imprisoned with Laurie for a rather long time. However, Thomas, learning that his half-brother was getting the shit beaten out of him, sent out Quinton and Ludo to go rescue the two of them. Jason's out now and trying to get back into living his life, though he's not totally the same. He still talks to Colin, and I don't know how his relationship with Randy is going. But hopefully he's getting better.
Lance: Jeez, Lance has been super quiet recently. He was trying to find Laurie when he went missing, but I don't know if he had much luck with that. Other than that, I don't think anything outstanding has happened since before you disappeared. Last I saw, he was going to try and make a name for himself, make himself valuable, and not just a shell. We'll see.
Jakob: Jakob here is dating a psychopath, my Annie. And he seems perfectly content with that, mostly because he doesn't know she has mental issues. He's also a bit dim-witted, the precious dummy. 8'| He thinks AU week was just a really surreal dream.
Abe: Abe here is Reyne's precious psychologist. He's in a really shaky relationship with Rico's Mitch, and it doesn't seem to be the best in terms of steady or reliable. Right now, since Mitch was manipulated into craving drugs again, Mitch is dangerous and Abe's just trying to help. But Mitch doesn't seem to want to let him. Abe's grandmother has also recently died, and so Abe is more than desperate to keep Mitch in his life - Mitch is all he has left, it seems. He sees Jeremy, Seraphina, Colin, Ezekiel, and sometimes Zeb in his office. When Evelyn got super-powers from Justin, she went to Abe and threatened him for information on his patients with powers. Overall, Abe's just been abused.
Quinton: Do you know Quinton? Quinton is Reyne's British character who came to America and was dragged into a gang, forced to kill people and raped and all that terrible hoopla. He's in a relationship with Bridgette's character Jeremy, who I have mentioned a few times before. Recently, Quinton has: learned that Gerry is his half-brother, due to their father being a ho; beaten up and taken down a large majority of his old gang's people, though he failed to kill king; dragged his dark and dirty past into the lives of his uncle Andrew and his cousin Stu; saved Jason and Laurie from Jen's German; saved Jeremy and Stu from his old boss, King; and killed King. He lives with Jeremy in a quaint little house and they seem to be doing alright, all things considered. He's a part of the Enlightenment as well.
James: James is a brand-spankin' new character of Reyne's with the ability to possess people like the magical soul-sucker from Mars. However, that's all I know. 8|
Gabriel: Gabriel is ANOTHER new character of Reyne's. He's also British, related to Colin (he's his uncle), recently divorced because he's gay, has two children, and is able to heal people of their ailments. He's helping Russell with his craptastic health, as well as helping Eli, who has recently had some bad luck considering his physical health. He also seems fond of flirting with Andrew. Aren't they a pair.
Gemma: Gemma is another one of Reyne's newest characters. She has the ability to absorb others' powers, and she's a waitress waiting to be a singing sensation. She seems bubbly and sweet and like a real-live Disney princess. I don't think she knows too many people yet.
Rory: Another Reyne baby, I don't know anything about this kid. He's a medical examiner and he can petrify people. He also seems to have dark humour. However, that's about all I know. Sorry. .x.
Omar: OMAR is a creepy-as-fuck new character of Reyne's. He's like, stalker extraordinaire. He has the power of lightning, and he uses that to his advantage. He also knows everything about everyone and he's not afraid to let others know that he knows what they know that he shouldn't know. When Kaelan came to his club to try and bust his ass for drug dealing, Omar handed Kaelan his ass to him and electrified the shit out of him, before he was let off Scott-free and Kaelan ended up arrested and none-too-happy about it.
Eva's characters.
Thomas: After Finch drugged up Thomas' wine, therefore causing his powers to overextend and Thomas to burn himself to a crisp, like a phoenix he arose from the ashes and started screwing up everything slowly but surely. Handing the reigns of the Enlightenment over to Bruce, whose name he actually took when he did his phoenix-down, Thomas just went to go fuck some shit up. He has, so far, set Zebediah's place on fire, and he framed Finch as Cooper's attempted murderer in revenge to Finch pretty much killing him. However, he has also pulled the strings behind the rescue of Jason and Laurie. Yet recently, using his new manmeat Oscar, Thomas is planning some terrible things to happen to good people. And I don't want to know what, but at the same time yes I do.
Frank: So as we all know, Frank is the eclectic, eccentric taxi driver who divorced his wife a little while ago and is in a romantic relationship with Cooper. He's also frienemies with Finch, and bros with Zebediah, and I think Frank just pretty much is awesome. He's also behind shooting Richard, however, and so he is going to get into shit for that, of course. Recently he's gone to Andrew so that the lawyer can defend his case against Richard. We'll see how that goes.
Bruce: Still an awkward duck, but also in cahoots with Thomas. He gave Thomas his name when Thomas needed to make a pit-stop in France to kill off someone there that knew about him and his fiery ways. He's the 'leader' of the Enlightenment and I'm really not sure how that's going to go over. Also, he helped frame Finch for the attempted murder of Cooper. I forget who shot him, though; I think Thomas shot Cooper, and Bruce brought something to Finch that pointed him out as the attempted murderer. Awkward dicky-duck.
Billy: Billy took Justin's virginity. 8| He's also been hilarious and kind of creepy, but I do enjoy him. However, I don't think Billy's done anything too important recently.
Adam: Adam has become Ludo's little friend/pet/sweetheart, though Adam tries very hard to be a good Christian and not enter into a homoerotic relationship with the crook (he doesn't know Ludo's a crook). We'll see how that goes, sweetheart.
Grace's characters.
Plot point that should be noted: GRACE IS AN EVIL PERSON. She created a train accident of such proportions that a couple of her characters died, a bunch were really hurt, and a few came out pretty much scratch free. This train crash caused Priscilla's panic attack, as well as overworking Allen and other doctors, and has just generally been a terrible, terrible event of drama and angst and I have had my revenge okay. Back to her characters.
Kim: Kim, who had been assigned by Thomas to shoot I think Finch in the guise of Cooper, because of her ability to change her shape, instead befriend Cooper, and helped him get a job, and generally did the complete opposite of what she was supposed to do. A bit of her past showed a shaky relationship with her parents. In the train crash, Kim died.
Mitchell: Mitchell has been a very naughty little boy. Angry because Colin managed to get away from him, with Kaelan's help, he sued against Kaelan for breaking and entering and then assault; however, he sort of screwed himself over when he tried to stab Ben because Ben would not stop defending Kaelan against his charge. After the stabbing attempt, Mitchell went to the train station where he knew Colin and Ben would be, along with a bunch of innocents, caused the bus driver to suffer terrible, nightmarish visions, and left to allow the train to crash and kill, hurt, or damage a bunch of people. WHAT A BITCH.
Colin/Arch: We know about Colin's multiple personality, right? Unlike Stu's Lucas, Arch tried to help Colin. Colin has recently been accepted into the Police Academy and he's going to go into training to become a cop. He also lives with Kaelan and seems to be having a relatively healthy and happy relationship with the vigilante. He used to be a vigilante as well, but he's decided going for policing is slightly more legal and he can get the training and finally do what he wants to do. In the train crash, Colin was fine - except he's lost certain abilities like writing because of brain damage. He still has his memories of who he is and such, of course, but outside of that? Just a few minor things he'll get back with practice.
Ben: Ben Dawson, Annie's friend and a close friend of Justin's these days (more more?!) and overall lawyer of Westfield, has got through a lot these past few months. From the stress of being Kaelan's lawyer (guy doesn't make his job easy, does he?) to being stabbed by Mitchell to a plethora of other things, he happened to be in the train accident as well. He's alive, but he's somewhat hurt. Not terribly, but somewhat.
Austin: Grace's Czechoslovakian. Austin and his uncle, Bob, are housing Priscilla in their home after hers was burned to the ground. He's a petty thief, but he isn't a terrible person. Quite sweet, really. When the train crash happened, he was fine, but he was affected by it.
Bob: Austin's uncle, and a grumpy old man who I love. Friend of Zeb's, kind of, and fond of Prissy (and Austin, but he'll never admit it). When the crash happened, Bob was hurt, but he didn't die. He's recuperating.
Lucy: Lucy Shillington, related to Colin and Michael Shillington, was never very known to me. I think she was like, elastic-girl who something. Anyway, she wasn't totally mentally sound, and she knew Ben. When the crash happened, Lucy died.
Jasper: Grace's newest baby, the redheaded gossip reporter who wants to make it big as a writer. No luck on that front yet, Jasper. He's a childhood friend of Kaelan's. When the crash happened, Jasper survived, and he was the last person to talk to Kim before she passed on. She told him, very brokenly, some important information about Thomas.
Bridgette's characters.
Eli: Eli, here, has had a bit of a tough life recently. His boyfriend is dying from health problems, his friends are going through rough patches, and his long-lost sister Peyton has appeared from fuck-all nowhere and is staying with him. He doesn't know what to expect from her, so he's not at all pleased with her and things are going on in this family that I don't want to try and figure it out by my lonesome. As for his old friend Annie, well they've had a bit of a falling-out and he doesn't know her as he once did. So that's sad. And then, to top it all off, Eli got SHOT IN THE LEG. And now he seems to have a creepy little stalker in the form of the cashier he saved from being robbed, which resulted in his shot leg. Gabriel is helping Eli with his leg so that he'll make a full recovery.
Jeremy: Jeremy is Bridgette's bunny. No really, he's precious. Basically Spiderman, Jeremy works two jobs and is in a relationship with Reyne's Quinton. He's also a fan of arson. He has set more people on fire than I can recall, and it's probably only four but come on. That is four people on fire. He's a little bit mentally touched, and he was abused as a younger man, as shown through bits of his revealed past. Manipulated by Goethe, he set Prissy's and Justin's living quarters on fire, and feels pretty freakin' rotten about it. He lives with Quinton right now. Quite recently he was kidnapped by King and his guys, in order to get to Quinton. Quinton saved him from King and killed King, and they're pretty content as of right now.
Ryan: I think Ryan fell off the map.
Morgan's characters.
Wesley: You know Wesley, yeah? Wesley was, at one point, kidnapped by his uncle and tested on so that Wallace could figure out the secrets behind his immortality. He was saved by Kaelan and Thomas, and then Thomas set the building on fire and created a huge court case against Kaelan, which Tegan then dropped when he got into power. After Thomas 'died', Wesley fell into an angered, depressed state; after Wallace actually died, he inherited everything from his house to his servants to the dog as big as my queen-sized bed. When Thomas came back, Wesley offered Thomas a place to stay.
Judith: Fucking Judy. Nothing too significant has happened with her, though she is associated with Wesley in that Wesley dated her and then tried to kill himself when they broke up. She's also Dominic's estranged little sister, and the foster sister to Morgan's never-introduced character, Torrence.
Dominic: Still homeless, and still associated with everyone. He was Adiel's impromptu guardian until she found Zebediah. He also took Justin under his wing when he first lost his home to Jeremy's fire. Still probably has an association with Wesley, as well, and others.
Shelly's characters.
Petronella (Pet): Pet has a job now, as a magician's assistant. She houses both Darren and Seraphina, her cousins, in her house where her parents never are. Her grandmother died, so she and Darren went to the funeral and picked up Seraphina there. When Pet met Stu, they hit it off immediately, and now they're dating. She's over her crush on Russ, at least, and she seems pretty content. Though she was pissed when her boyfriend became all unconscious because of AU week.
Darren: Darren, AKA the rubberman, was kidnapped by Jen's German and tested on. However, he somehow escaped (probably with Jason and Laurie), and has just generally been hanging around and being Darren. He's finally returned home.
Seraphina (Phina): She lives with Pet because she has nowhere else to go. She sees Abe for mental reasons, doesn't go to school, smokes, and is just generally kind of hanging around.
Laurent: I don't know what this guy is up to, being French and hanging out with dead people.
Lady's characters.
Jesse: He still has his list of people he's going to deal with for bothering his niece. He also has Clarice, this multi-personality woman, who does a bunch of things for him. He seems somewhat? fond of Brenton, and I think he's housing him right now.
Helena: Helena is Eli's crazy friend, and I don't think anything good is happening to her right now. She has recently been kidnapped, and I believe by Clarice.
Clarice: Clarice seems nice, but her other personalities aren't necessarily. Recently she has kidnapped Helena, for whatever reason.
Desiree: I THINK SHE DIED. 8|
William: William has confessed his love to Ezekiel, and has helped Ezekiel move in with him recently. He's also still good friends, if awkward friends, with Eli. His brother was causing him some trouble there for a while, but it appears that he's managed to push past it. And that's awesome.
Jen's characters.
Amanda's gone, and as for Felix, Max, and Claire, I'm not sure. Dick, as well. They're all a mystery and they all quietly vanished from history.
Kimi's characters.
Disappeared.
Nikki's character.
She still has Charlie, but Charlie doesn't appear all that much.
Megan's characters.
Disappeared.
Usa's characters.
Disappeared.
Amber's characters.
Disappeared.
Informaton about AU Week:
AU Week had the following days:
What-If AU
High School AU
Power-Switch AU
1920s AU
Bridgette's Supernatural AU
Asylum AU
Each of these lasted a couple of days, 1-4 in total.
It ended when Leon punched Stu in the face in the Asylum AU, because of Leon's ability to have duplicates of himself; he knew something was wrong.
And that's it! -throws confetti.- I hope I helped.
