summary: hello! with the holidays coming up i thought it'd be time to finally put out a permanent plotter call for this guy. by liking this post you give me permission to:
randomly DM you for plot ideas
drop surprises in your inbox
playfully attempt [IC] murder threats
@ you in random posts/threads [does not have to be threaded out]
use Google-translate French :3
about the muse: cecil is a marquis from a fantasy medieval magic setting trained in assassination since he was a child. he has a laid-back, cheerful personality, is extremely even-tempered, and has the ability to stay calm in a crisis. his hobbies are tailoring and poisons and he runs a fashion boutique on the island selling overly fancy clothes. (it is also the front for his covert, word-of-mouth assassination organization.) you can get along well with him just by maintaining superficial ties, provided he doesn't get a request to kill you.
interested relationships:
enemies: it is easy to label cecil an enemy, but he generally doesn't go out of his way to make enemies of other people. if your muse objects to blatant murder & related misdeeds, they are free to pursue him in the name of the law, but note that cecil will find it all very good fun. he enjoys getting hurt and has already been decapitated once, so the prospect of death fascinates rather than daunts him. most likely claiming you're his enemy will label you a target for a—
crush/lover: cecil likes pretty people, or those with interesting personalities. he admires the strong and holds crushes easily, finding it fun to flirt with and kiss even strangers. if you approach him with amorous intentions, he will likely reciprocate. this can range from puppy-love levels to passionate trysts. anyways, he likes both.
friends: similar as above but with a less flirtatious edge and no kisses. he prefers less close friends and more a wide circle of acquaintances.
clients/partners: you hire him to murder people and he kills them. pay on time or else he kills you too. can also apply to mutually beneficial business partnerships.
target: for whatever reason, your muse has been marked on the "to kill" list and cecil is assigned to end them. he can either do it quickly and painlessly, slowly and miserably, or in a plot twist toss you into one of the other relationship categories instead for kicks.
true (?) love: despite being very affectionate, cecil has never thought of treating love seriously. he has lovers he would never kill because of his own whims, but no one in particular he would think to love and live with for the rest of his life. his double identity necessitates that he keep no close bonds, but i think it'd still be fun to try for one? or even multiple? to achieve this ending you must match his freak, unlock his lv 10 backstory without getting murdered in the process, tolerate his other paramours, occasionally LARP as a dress-up doll, be kidnapped at random inconvenient times, indulge his masochistic tendencies, and accept stabbing and getting stabbed in turn as an expression of romance at least twice a month. a high immunity to poisons and/or willingness to carry antidotes on your person for the rest of your life is also required.
there is a good chance that the relationship combusts somewhere during the process and he tries to kill you outright (for real this time), but if you can survive that and still like him then i think you'll have a wonderful husband who treats you well and always spoils and showers you in very expensive gifts 70% of the time (the other 30% is just murder sorry it comes with the extra intimacy points).
he's been here long enough to start imagining believable dynamics and relationships despite thinking they're in some kind of eternal cosmic purgatory...... i mean what. who said that? anyway!
hopefully you know the drill!!! by liking this post, you have granted me blanket permission to do the following:
plot and scheme with you in dms (if you have a preference as to what platform this is done on, you gotta let me know.)
reply to any shenanigans you might put out on the dash more confidently
send you unprompted asks if i'm feeling silly
(with permission) write you impromptu starters when i'm feeling extra silly
liking this post also relays to me that you have interest in forging one of the following relationships (listed below) with my muse, whether short-term or long-term!! please prepare yourself for my ability to yap ceaselessly about our muses together!!! i'm also game to do some behind the scenes development if you wanna skip a few tiers/awkward first meetings and get right into more solidified dynamics!
important note for castmates: i'm always willing to discuss specific aspects of my portrayal with you, and while it's fine to assume the pre-existing dynamics in canon apply here too, i'm also down to iron out finer details to make the isola experience(tm) something special, if you want! just so you're included here too.
a guy he knows.
you can become someone familiar to him, if you want, probably even completely unbeknownst to you. someone he can talk to but not really "talk" to, y'know? he's not the most social, but they love making a habit of things if there's a routine or potential for repeated interaction (think frequent bartering, a regular customer, always in the same place at the same time kinda thing.) also he'll die if he embarrasses himself in front of you, just to warn you.
friends / allies.
make no mistake, you can think you're at this level and siffrin will wholeheartedly believe you are just someone he knows until you say it outright. also important to note that getting close to him in the first place is more like taming a wild animal. it might take some time and some bribery? but not to worry, you've got all the time in the world compared to back home! he also has nothing better to do, so if you like his... whatever he's got going for him... let them know! it goes a long way. they'll die for you btw.
close(!!!) friends / family(???)
managed to mean a lot to him? okay... your mistake, but it can't be helped i guess. siffrin can be a little protective and maybe unknowingly possessive of those he really cares about. he might not be the most obvious about it, but they have their little ways of showing they care! rest assured he's going to great lengths (maybe not the healthiest ones either but don't worry about it) to make you happy! they'll make you little knickknacks, and i'm contractually obligated to let you know that they'll die even harder for you now (no, you can't escape this.)
enemies / horrible secret other thing i shan't say.
oh, yes, he is so wholly and completely capable of beefing with someone forever and ever, thank you for asking. it's really easy too in his current state, especially if you know the right buzzwords and just generally get under his skin. he will bite back if you insist on instigating, and is not opposed to picking a fight if it has to come to that. just note that if you're vying for the number one spot on his theoretical hit list you're out of luck, it's already accounted for.
romance / shipping.
are you sure? i mean, i'm going to level with you, he's definitely grey/aspec so we'd have to talk and work through a lot as it stands to get here, but i have no direct objections conceptually. just understand that just because we can talk it through doesn't mean it will necessarily work? anyway. i can't even pretend to sell this to you, he has no prospects and is in a pretty wretched mental state for this (as of writing at least) and if they get a silly little ability later he's definitely not going to abuse it to always get the best case scenario every interaction (would do this regardless but you understand how it's worse here right.) but if any of this sounds hot to you then who am i to throw stones from my glass house.
qpr
this is the ideal though. please, please, please.
other / misc.
i can rapid fire a few funny/more casual ones like. Cool Hat Club / Drinking Buddies(?) / Theater Fans / Stargazing / etc. if you have more ideas. one thing that can also apply to other dynamics listed is whether or not your muse would know about his looping. while i can say for certain they wouldn't talk about it with anyone (preferably anyway) if your muse can figure it out / notice it i'm not opposed to the idea if we wanna work something out about it ^_^
can you believe, in my almost four years of having lloyd at isola, that i've never made a permanent plotter for him before? well today, that's about to change! while he's made so many wonderful relationships during his time in the group, there's always room for more interactions, and i think it would be really fun to plot some out!
so if you're interested, keep reading!
if you like this post, that will let me know that you're okay with me sending you a DM about which specific relationship you'd like to plot. please just keep in mind that i may not reach out right away, as i have real life obligations (as does everyone!), but i absolutely will when i have time! i'm also going to keep the descriptions below a little bare, to give us room to discuss more in-depth when we chat one on one!
friends
one type of relationship lloyd treasures the most would be the bond he shares with his friends. he feels so incredibly lucky to know those he travelled with back at home, and while he always keeps them in his heart, there's always room to bring in more! lloyd is extremely good at breaking down other people's walls (with mun permission, of course) if they aren't very sociable, or if they have a lot of pain in their life. his hard-headedness is quite endearing, and he makes it his goal to make sure people know how much they truly matter in the world. he's also a total lovable goofball, who enjoys slacking off and having a good time! he makes a great friend, and is happy to be that towards anyone who might need one.
customers
lloyd loves his job as a blacksmith, and is always eager to take on new jobs! at this point in his life on the island, he's gotten a lot of experience, and enjoys the challenge of coming up with original ideas. maybe for weapons he's never even made before! if you'd like more information around the scope of his abilities, check out the fire and iron page here! if you need something done, he's your guy!
sparring partners / weapon enthusiasts
it shouldn't come as much of a surprise that while lloyd enjoys making weapons, he also loves seeing how they handle action! there's an entire training ground set up near his forge, and you can find lloyd there pretty regularly. if your character has a burning desire for combat, or just wants to practice their skills, lloyd is always happy to join in!
found family
this category is equally important to him as his friendships. lloyd was an orphan, and was raised by his adoptive father, so he's never been one to think that only those related to you by blood are your family. he's opened his arms up to many characters that he considers siblings at this point, but again, there is always room in his heart for more. if lloyd comes to care for you, he'll protect you with his life, and always go out of his way to make sure you're okay.
enemies
while still a happy-go-lucky guy, there are times where lloyd can get serious-- and that would mostly be when those he cares about are threatened in anyway. that's a sure-fire way to get you on his bad side. he also doesn't like people who are cruel just for the sake of it, who go out of their way to make people feel like they're lower than dirt, just because they were born. he will very openly fight for his own ideals in the face of discrimination, and may even resort to violence if the time comes for it.
also, if you ask for his name before giving yours, that'll really make him mad <3
ANYWAY, by liking this caller, effectively, you've expressed some interest in our muses having some sort of interaction/relationship in the premise of spirale. As well as that, you're also okay'ing me coming into your ask box on meme day, because I need to be invited in like a freak.
Thanks for dropping by and even looking!!
Acquaintances
Hawks is a friendly dude! He's not above saying hi or just idly chat about the happenings of the city. He's social and all.
Friends
Think acquaintances but a bit of a deeper connection, of course. He'll show up to your place unprompted and drag you out on the town for fun, of course without announcing himself. He means well.
Found family
Hawks didn't have much in terms of family when he was growing up. He has a big brother vibe to him, and often sticks his neck out for the youth, because if he doesn't: who will?
Hero Work
It's what he did in Japan! Need rescuing, he's your guy! This could also entail a team up too, he's a great support too, and is pretty well informed, or so a certain birdie says...
He's probably going to open up a hero agency here eventually, so be on the lookout for that!
Romance
👁️👁️ this will be plotted but 👁️👁️
Did I miss anything?
I'm always open to hearing other suggestions, hit me with that shitttt!
PERMANENT PLOTTER CALL | nero claudius (fate series)
been rping miss nero for about a year now and i figured i should go and try and write one of these again! if you need any sort of knowledge of fate/extra or the fate series in general, you are free to shoot me a dm. that being said...by liking this post that means you are okay with me coming to you for plot ideas, fun little meme stuff, random starters, etc.
FRIENDS. nero is VERY extroverted and loves meeting new people regardless of who they are. this is due to her nature as a former emperor and her constant need to be around others! she'll introduce herself whether the person wants it or not (lol). nero would like to make as many meaningful relationships as possible!
FELLOW SERVANTS AND MASTERS. since she is from moon cell, saber doesn't have any clue about any of the servants in chaldea! she is aware of the many servants that are residing in spirale and who knows, she might get along with them. the same goes for any masters that she happens to stumble across and possibly befriends, a lot of hard-work goes into being a master...so of course nero is going to have the up most respect for them.
RIVALS. this could be in affections of another or just battle rivals. due to her nature of being outspoken and thinking highly of herself, she might want to test her skills against another servant or a person who uses a blade. really hard to categorize them as an enemy (unless you're tamamo then it is on sight).
ROMANCE. her view of love is quite warped and is definitively not correct. nero still has a big heart and will state her intentions quite clearly. she can be very shameless when it comes to love and outwardly states her love for another. in canon, saber has stated that she doesn't care what gender nor sexuality a person is, she will love said person unconditionally. good luck!
if i am missing anything, please let me know and we can work stuff out!
OH SHIT, another one? That's right. A brand new Relationship starter call. I figured it would be nice to start all over AND maybe add a couple of new choices in here. Anyway, by liking this starter call I'm going to go ahead and assume I can just throw you a spontaneous and random starter whenever, send you memes, scream about our characters in the DM, plot randomly, etc!
Click the readmore to see the options!
Friends? Klaus could use more friends actually. This guy is almost a little too recluse, isn't he? He keeps himself plenty busy with training, working at both Bubu Pharmacy and Lionheart, but that doesn't mean he doesn't ever have free time. Talk to him, see what he's like, and be his friend! I promise, Klaus can be fun!
Close Friends? Klaus doesn't have many of these, but the ones he does have, he cherishes them. He cherishes all of his friends, but there are just a handful who seems to understand exactly what kind of guy he is. May know him in a deeper level, even! Things he's worried about, things he really, really enjoys, what he's scared of, stuff like that.
Mentor? Currently, he’s being taught and trained under Kratos and he’s learning a lot as he goes. From flying, to learning more about how to wield a sword, and learning about other things. Klaus goal is to learn as much as he can about everything so if you have anything you can teach him, he’d welcome it.
Fellow Angel? There aren't many angels here, but the ones that ARE around, he'd like to meet them. He’d like to know some of the things they go through. It’d be nice to have an angel friend or just someone who can relate to him. He’s actually scared about what he is…It’d be pretty cool if someone like him could show him that there’s nothing to be scared of.
Rivals? Nothing negative of course. Klaus is probably---MAYBE the only rival who'd want to get better in the way of 'let's get better together.' HAH, wait is that even considered a rivalry, because Klaus would be that guy that'd cheer his rival on!
What about something else? I know there’s MORE to relationship than these, so if you have any ideas PLEASE hit me up! I’m always down for ideas~!
hi have you ever been touched by an angel anyways you know the drill please like this post to give me permission to:
hop into DMs for plotting (short or long term)
send you starters/minis (with permission)
@ you or drop into your inbox
throw memes + headcanons about our muses
[insert stuff between us here]
as for relationships here's how aurelius would classify potential candidates:
𖤍 FRIENDS (derogatory 💔) - it's easy to be his friend even if you're just a lowly mortal, as long as you're interesting or different in some way. are you motivated by a goal or crippled by expectations? is something about you fundamentally wrong or broken? talk to him, he's a good listener and he loves to ramble, especially if it's philosophical discussions or chats over tea or advising someone after hearing their sob story (humans get emotional over the funniest things). he can't help the holier than thou attitude, but he's great at keeping his condescending thoughts to himself and treating you almost like a real friend! so there's that. most of his "human friends" fit here because of his superiority complex >w>
𖤍 FRIEND (affectionate 💖)* - unlike fake friends you get to be real friends if he sees you as an equal. the easiest way to get there is to be as cool and strong as klaus. or you beat aurelius himself somehow (but you need to convince him to accept the results first). please be okay with murder and cannibalism before you apply. he doesn't have any real friends (not even klaus) so you'd be one of a kind, which makes you special. but do you really want to shoulder the pressure of someone who knows too much for the rest of your days...
*(limited to 1 slot only for now, everyone else is just friends [derogatory] to some extent, alas)
𖤍 ENEMIES 😡 - be a demon (sorry angel prejudice here). ruin his suit one too many times (he believes in 3rd chances but no more). it doesn't matter if you're nasty or mean or sinful (those are interesting), the issue is trying to drag him in with you when he says no (those are annoying). trying to control him in anyway. trying to control or take klaus in anyway. generally getting in his way. not all enemies are kill on sight, most just get demoted to the friends (derogatory) category if they're a waste of time or get more of his time in return, because you can't stand him either and misery loves company.
𖤍 SERVANTS/SUPPLICANTS...? 🙏- do you like to take care of people. do you enjoy the freedom of following orders. are you okay with prostrating yourself at random intervals to offer prayers and praise to some self-entitled stranger. have you given up on life and just want guidance. OK, then submit your hand for the standard brainwashing procedure (a formality for now until it's actually unlocked) and let him look after you, you poor lost lamb.
PROS: he will come to your events in support (like a soccer mom) and protect you while looking great doing it too;
CONS: you're more of a possession than a person so your rights don't really exist (but that doesn't matter too much in normal life anyways)!
YMMV: no insurance package included but you do get complimentary healing/blessings against demons* for life?
*this and all other perks pending unlock of abilities
𖤍 DEPENDENTS 🙇 - you don't actually worship him but you sure do rely on him a lot (mentally/physically/emotionally/whatever), and for some reason he humors you because he thinks it's fun. maybe you consider him your mentor or savior, maybe he considers you his pawn or toy. less expectations and responsibilities from both sides but you can still call on him in a pinch, you just won't be his first priority if he's busy. also, he's nice to you. always. because you're just that pathetic worth it. : )
𖤍 TRUE NEUTRAL 🤝 - you're not weak-willed enough to be used but not strong enough to overpower him, you're just there. maybe both of you have something useful (intel. chess games. recipes?) to offer the other and that's why you get along. you might help each other one day and stab each other in the back the next, but that's fine because you weren't friends (or enemies) to begin with, yes? good for...business associates/drinking buddies. less manipulation and minimum disdain (if any) here, there's polite indifference on both sides.
𖤍 "LOVE" RIVAL....? ?? 💀 - for the love of god if you like klaus or have close relations with klaus you are automatically on this list and need to get off it or get a lover so he can ignore you permanently. a better category than enemies because he doesn't try to destroy you on sight, but the guy sure knows how to smile and glower at the same time. danger level expected to increase after he actually starts developing the right feelings towards his "partner." perhaps you want him to remain oblivious indefinitely instead.
𖤍 ROMANCE 😂 - there's only one person he's obsessed with at the moment but if you one-sided crush him obviously enough he will take pity on you and give you token chocolates on valentine's and etc. so that you don't die of a broken heart (or embarrassment). it's only natural for him to have adoration from multiple sources even if he never returns those feelings, so if you're fine with treating him as some otome game boyfriend come to life with no real results he doesn't mind playing along. it's kind of a mercy for you to be loved this way, don't you think?
boogies onto the dashboard. hey there! so i've had baizhu in isola for a good amount of time now and i feel he's established enough for me to start considering relationships for him! so you might be wondering what this post does. well, i'll tell you!
by liking this you're giving me permission to:
🙔:: hop into your dms to plot!
🙔:: send you starters (with permission!)
🙔:: regularly send you memes on meme day (a personal favorite of mine)
🙔:: and all around good plot building stuff!
sounds good, right? neat! now let's get to the menu.
RELATIONSHIPS.
🙔:: patients.
this is the top of my priority list! baizhu's pharmacy is thriving in cotes ward, and i'm sure he sees a lot of patients walk through his doors. after the moonchase event, it's evidently quite clear he cares a lot about his patients and his practice, so any ailments your muse may have, or any aches and pains they might be experiencing, doctor baizhu is here to listen and treat you! not only is this my most sought out relationship on the list, it's also the most common. most people would know baizhu in this way!
🙔:: business partners.
looking to make business dealings? bubu pharmacy could always use more suppliers! be that herbs from the market, or other various medicinal supplies, baizhu is keen on nurturing business connections for his pharmacy. a relationship like this would be professional and polite, suitable for a work setting.
🙔:: friends & acquaintances.
i think it'd be nice for baizhu to have some pals in isola. most of the time, he's quite mild mannered and pleasant. very easy to get along and strike up conversation with! this is a category for a muse who's looking for someone to have some tea with, have a nice chat over lunch and talk about mundane things. he just wants to have a laid back time and enjoy some company!
🙔:: frenemies?
i simply cannot talk about baizhu without also acknowledging that he’s honestly! kinda sus! he's a clever man who can, at times, be a bit selfish and questionable. so naturally, not everyone will get along with him. however! taking into consideration baizhu's polite pretenses, this would be a subtle type of banter, not an obvious sort of feuding where interactions are openly hostile. remarks might be underhanded and casual, but always spoken with a smile. very lowkey, i think! and they might even lean more towards a weird sense of camaraderie, depending on how this develops. i'm a bit iffy on this category though, considering how little we really know about him!
🙔:: mentoring.
have a muse pursuing knowledge of medicine? baizhu has plenty of it to share! these muses might be able to intern at the pharmacy, or even study under baizhu's guidance. this would be much like a teacher and student bond, wherein baizhu would sort of take them under his wing. i feel this category has the potential to be really sweet, and i'm pretty interested in developing relationships like it!
before i end this post, i'd like to point out that baizhu does bear interest in those who are immortal! obtaining immortality is a goal of his, and he'd like to learn more about any whom already possess it. i left this out from its own category, just because, again, we don't know a whole lot about him haha. once he's playable and has a full backstory available to read, i might update this plotting call and recirculate it!
but for now, that about wraps things up! if any of these interest you, please leave a ❤ and i'll pop in your dms to plot.
thank you so much for reading! :^)
