WELCOME TO THE OFFICIAL PARANOMALY HOTLINE RUNDOWN!!!!
[plain text: WELCOME TO THE OFFICIAL PARANOMALY HOTLINE RUNDOWN!!!!]
the name, and the tag here on out, is "Calls & Cryptids" . for organization purposes, the previous tag and name was "Paranormal Callings (And How We Got You Out)".
(also tag is now in lowercase so i dont gotta deal with all that)
the comic itself follows piper, an intern at the paranomaly hotline for three weeks now, who's found that her girlfriend may have just gotten her one of the strangest jobs. what makes it so strange, you ask? maybe the fact that its an underground corporation acting as first responders to those in the danger of creatures that piper was sure she only saw in her darkest of nights. with her high paranoia, not even her meds can help her decipher whats real and what isnt. as questions fill her mind, its almost as if the answers seek out piper, as she must prove one thing: is she truly ready to answer the call?
its a story to be filled with lots of emotional turmoil, following both the developments made in the job and as people (because we have multiple characters!) as time progresses. and i say to be filled because this is where my big disclaimer comes in: i am not able to work on this full time, i am disabled and also a busy person. do not be upset with a lack of updates, nor should you believe i abandoned it if i dont talk about it. feel free to send asks about this, but dont expect something big to come out soon.

[plain text: character cast (only main ones, you dont get the others unless you ask):]
piper "lomasi" burt: the somewhat protagonist of this story. a physically and mentally disabled queer woman whos quite timid and nervous while interacting with her new coworkers, even knowing that none of them mean them harm. is dating milo, who actually got it this job. any pronouns
milo harmock verna-adolini: the girlfriend of piper. an energetic person who has quite great people skills. she tries to remember the times to be calm, but perfection doesnt make for an interesting character, not here at least. recently officially hired as a call responder. he/him
rune gateway: an empathy-lacking and somewhat reckless person, but gets the job done. teases many of their friends, but if they know when not to is another question. it/neos/they
clover aergon: the youngest call responder and about the calmest person here. no matter the situation, hes always seemed to keep a straight face and a blunt vocabulary. hes aware of his lack of expression, but if that bothers him, its hard for him to show it. he/him
whelan denise breathnach ("whip"): the longest of this cast to be a call responder, and the only one to have worked as a janitor, those who go in themselves to handle certain entities. while her anger issues can be a challenge for dealing with certain coworkers, she generally is too tired to take it beyond a break room simmering. she/they
atari macgold: if any were to be leader of this group, itd probably be atari. their optimistic nature and energy while working makes them a pleasure to save people from imminent danger of unknown forces! they get along with anybody and generally keep the tension down for everyone. it/they/mem/crys, tolerates she/her
moss nelfson: just about everything about this boygirl is strange. from the way he talks to the constant smile on her face, he has good intensions, even if hes off putting. while trying to be understanding, its clear he may not understand how to wrangle his own issues into view before helping out friends. he/her
ASSSSSSSSSSSS for anything else- cut story ideas, side characters, maybe even details that wont be brought up in text- feel free to ask me OR @the-paranomaly-hotline , the official blog for this! i answer asks there in character AND put updates there too!...typically, at least. no matter, if you wanna know things, dont be afraid to ask and stuff!
