(OG intro) Curly is stuck in the med bay bored out of his mind, to the point where he might just respond to texts from unknown numbers. He might even doodle something on post-its (poorly. He isn't much of an artist. Isn't much of a nurse. Isn't much of anything. He's nothing. Ñ̴̨̥̟́ơ̶͚ṱ̶͛̊̕h̵͉̮͚̦͆̂̅̕į̴̣͇̑͠n̷̺͍͛̂g̷͍̼̼̾̿́̀-̴͕̬̒̓͑͝-̵̖̬̃̀̚͘ͅ)
General info and rules under the cut!
The setting is pre-crash Tulpar
The crew is as follows: Captain Anya, Co-Pilot Swansea, Mechanic Daisuke, Nurse Curly, Medical Intern Jimmy
You are communicating with Curly via his phone. Which for some reason has reception
Asks = text messages; submissions = airdropping files across the vastness of space
Regular text posts (not responses) are something between Curly's thoughts and phone notes
In ask responses, text put (in brackets like these) = Curly's asides. Sometimes tags will provide helpful context from mod :)
Curly only communicates via answering asks. If you put something in a reply or reblog, it won’t reach him
You cannot manifest in the med bay/interact with his world or other characters. Literally you all are just guys in his phone :)
You can try impersonating people Curly knows (crew mates, parents, friends, alternates etc), but he is liable to realise that you aren’t them :)*
At the same time, you are absolutely welcome to bring in OCs; if your OC shares some kind of backstory with Curly, we can either improv it or workshop a little. Hit me up here or on my main!*
You can try telling Curly that he is fictional but he will not believe you. Any media pertaining to canon mouthwashing+roleswap's 'canon' (playthroughs, art from the masterpost etc) will appear as corrupted and illegible*
* UPDATE: Curly is now somewhat more open to the idea of the multiverse. Do with that what you will
All information Curly reveals is compliant to the Roleswap AU, but the ask blog itself is not **
** UPDATE: as of Feb 16th 2024, the plot is diverging from canon roleswap :)
Curly is an Englishman; mod, however, is a silly little ESL. If Curly says something weird, assume that Anya's ESL is rubbing off on him. Also those five hours of sleep
Bullying/ribbing is fine, sexual jokes are fine (he is easily flustered), but mod reserves the right to play it by ear and not respond IC to something they find uncomfortable
Sometimes Curly will signal that you are crossing a boundary. Curly’s boundaries don’t equal mod’s boundaries, so if you want to keep pushing go ahead :)

Anya has a lot of responsibilities on this ship, a lot of decisions to be made. But her phone just keeps buzzing and was not immune to the tantalizing call of a text message, even if she didn't recognize the number. She just needs a distraction! Haha! A distraction.

Anya is a Russian woman; mod, however, is a silly little english speaker. If Anya says something weird, assume that Curly's english ways are rubbing off on her. Also her mind has a billion thoughts to sort through.
Bullying/ribbing is fine, sexual jokes are fine (she isn't easily flustered), but mod reserves the right to play it by ear and not respond IC to something they find uncomfortable

Hello! This is an ask blog for Captain Curly as he appears in my fic https://archiveofourown.org/works/62844429. Everything in character will be tagged #captainsays, everything from mod will be #modsays.
companion blog: Steve the alien god who occasionally talks to curly
blog in order: here
Curly is, unfortunately for him, currently experiencing a time loop that resets whenever he dies. The time loop always returns him to the day he takes the psych eval, and he may "reset" a few times over the course of the blog. Curly is also the only person who remembers the Bad Timeline, which is the plot of the game. He is also the only person on board the Tulpar who knows about the time loop at all. (Mod Edit: Anya now knows about some of the time loops but not all of them!) Curly is currently exhausted and desperate enough to start reading random texts that appear on his phone just for the distraction of it.
Rules below the cut!
The setting is pre-crash, but you can reference things that happened in the post-crash setting.
You are talking to Curly through his phone. It has reception due to the weird space-time wormhole he's currently occupying. Asks = text messages, submissions = airdropped files, posts are just little asides he makes in his notes app. Any text in brackets [like this] are his personal thoughts, not an actual part of the reply, however you can see and respond to them.
You cannot physically appear on board, you are just Random Strangers From His Phone :)
Impersonation of people Curly knows is perfectly fine, but he might realize you are lying :)
If you would like to include an OC, that is both welcome and encouraged! You can DM mod here to set that up if you would like!
You can try telling him he is fictional/a character from a video game but he will simply not believe you
Curly is an Irishman, however mod is not, and if mod makes any Americanisms you can assume the lack of sleep and General Suffering is getting to him (and Jimmy's American slang)
Bullying is fine and in fact encouraged, sexual jokes/innuendos are also fine, however mod reserves the right to not reply IC if mod finds it uncomfortable/too far
Curly might also sometimes indicate you are crossing a boundary. This does not usually mean the mod's boundaries have been crossed, so do with that as you will :)
