I'm burnin' up

[Tanner Larson]

Hi, everyone! I just joined and am looking to start some threads. My character, Tanner, doesn't have that many friends, so he could use a couple.

In terms of what we might roleplay: he's a pyrokinetic, so anybody with a relatable power might be a good fit. He's also studious, so he might meet somebody in the library or the common room studying. Lastly, he likes to cook, so they could meet at the campus market or something (actually, if you're interested in creating a culinary club with him, speak up!). Those are just general (read: vague) ideas, so please feel free to suggest something cool! He's not much of a partier but can be dragged into one if he trusts the person doing the dragging.

Also, he's single (gentlemennn) - totally not my first priority, but throwing that out there for future planning.

So yes, if you think your character might make good friends/study buddies/whatever with Tanner, then let's plan something!

[Lindsey Turner]

So I read his app when it went up, aaaand Lindsey here got a crush on him then. Now, I realize he's gay, which just makes it all that much more interesting (at least, to me) so she totally volunteers to be a friend and hang out with him whenever. Studying, outside school, wherever.

[Tanner Larson]

Baha, excellent! Tanner, as you may have read, is way quiet/shy/sheltered, so he would be absolutely unnerved to hear someone had a crush on him (that is, if we choose to go that route)! Otherwise, Tanner can always use more friends, especially since Lindsey seems to be super nice. Also, I noticed Lindsey likes to cook - I'm trying to gather enough students to start a culinary club (it's Tanner's passion, really), so let me know if she would be interested in that!

[Lindsey Turner]

She'd definitely be interested in that. One more reason to hang with him, and apparently her gaydar is broken? She'd totally be picturing them cooking at home together >_>.

[Tanner Larson]

Awesome! And I love that idea; perhaps they're preestablished friends when we start our thread, and Lindsey develops (or has developed) a slight (or more than slight baha) crush on him? I don't know much about empathy but I wonder if she would, perhaps just subconsciously, try to make him feel the same way? Again I don't know how that works but it's just a thought XD

But I could totally see them like making dinner together one night, and Tanner like pulling out all the stops having no idea that it's being misconstrued or something haha.

[Lindsey Turner]

That would be hilarious! We should definitely do that! *rubs hands together*

[Tanner Larson]

Sweet! I can go start a thread and send you the link when it's done?

[Mason McQueen]

Hey Alex! Jam here.^^. I would try to think of something witty and all that, but it only makes things awkward so let’s just get on to plotting, shall we? Heehee.^^.

So I’m thinking that maybe Zac and Tanner would know each other, seeing that they’re about the same age, with Tanner getting accepted/recruited into Hammel just a year earlier than the mimic. And it’s no problem that Tanner’s a little shy; Zac’s as loud as anyone can be, and would like to believe that everyone knows him (he believes that being rich and supposedly good-looking would mean everyone should worship him), so I’m pretty sure he’d bugged the poor blonde somewhere along the way. In fact, I’d even go and probably think that he’s flirted with him a bit, if only to tease him and all that (if you want something more, just PM me or something about it if ever). Zac believes that he’s probably one of Tanner’s leading antagonists, whether you want it to be the friendly sort or the bully type, it’s all up to you. .

In any case, I’m thinking that Zac would ask Tanner to teach him how to cook. Or rather bug him endlessly until he says yes, same banana. While he wouldn’t say why (he’d just tell Tanner that he feels like it and tell him to stop asking questions), it’s for a certain lady friend who frequently cooks for him. Zac says he wants to return the favour of sorts. At least that’s how I think a good thread would stem from, if you’re up for it. Heehee.^^.

Haha. Sorry if it’s a bit…long. =p. In any case, if you’d like to check up on Zac more, his profile’s right here

[/url][/b]. You can also check in on my plotpage if you prefer (located here[/url][/b]), as it has what I believe is a better summary of his personality, as well as description of my other characters, should you wish to check them out anyway. Haha.

Thanks Alex. Hope you have fun in Hammel!

[Tanner Larson]

Okay so despite the fact that you are NOT, in fact, James Marsden, I will overcome that blunder and say YES that is a good idea! I like the fact of him being antagonistic - like maybe they're frenemies, even though Tanner doesn't even really know what that means XD But I could totally see him teaching Zac how to cook, although he'd probably force him to first promise to help him apply to create the culinary club (which would then give me the three members I need ) before he'd say yes.

[Romeo Buckland]

HAHAHA. Well. ^^.

Zac says he wouldn't really want to be part of a 'gay' club, but seems like he has no choice, so he'll do it. But don't expect him to be a good member though; he'll probably whine and whine and whine every time they meet. XD.

As for Mason, he's fairly open to plots toooo! I just couldn't think of a decent one earlier so I didn't include him yet. If you have any idea about how they could interact, be my guest! If it help, aside from the classroom, Mason also volunteers in the local LGBT centre, a little coming back to his community to help people like his brother, he says. . But like I said, we can always work something out to your liking! Heehee.

Feel free to PM me if you like! I'm also almost always online in chatango, if that's easier for you. ^^. (I actually like chatango better. Haha. I ramble easier in private even. :B)

"THERE IS NOTHING GAY ABOUT CULINARY CLUB!"
-Tanner Larson

Baha that would be hilarious, Tanner and Lindsey working on a recipe while Zac complains XD And then he expects to eat what he didn't help cook, riiiight? XD But yeah we should definitely thread Tanner agreeing to help him cook something and the hilarity that ensues

Yayyy I have enough people to make a club! *literally runs to the club board*

Regarding my husband- err, Mason... oooh I have a goood idea. Perhaps Tanner goes to the LGBT center because he, I dunno, got made fun of or something, and he just assumes Mason is gay because he's working there, and develops a crush-crush-crush? Then it's all... suuuper awkward. Just a general idea, we can work on it baha

[Ethan White]

LOVE IT. ALL OF IT. HAHAHAHAHA.

And yes, Zac says he can be the official taste tester of the club. Prepare to endure his whining about how there's too much salt and not enough cinnamon in every thing Lindsay, Tanner and any other future member would make. :B.

Mason lives on awkward. THIS SHOULD BE FUN. :B.

I guess it goes without saying that I love you already Alex. Prepare to be stapled to my side. >:B.

[Morgana Bennet]

Morgana would totally be friends with Tanner. She always likes helping people come out of their shells, plus she'd stand up for him if anybody decided to tease him. I don't think she'd join the Culinary Club, but she might if she can be convinced by Tanner. She has pretty good gaydar, so I don't see her falling for him. She might find him attractive, but that's pretty much it.

[Tanner Larson]

@jam Excellent, it's settled in! Woohoo, two more roleplays! I'm happy to start both and send you the links once I do. I'll probably write them tomorrow evening after work if that's okay? You can also start them if you don't want to wait XD

@morgana Cool! Morgana definitely seems like a nice girl, so Tanner would get along with her. Perhaps in the future once they're closer, Tanner could convince her to come to the meetings just to hang, even if she doesn't want to cook with them XD But yeah, definitely sounds like a friendship in the making!

[Morgana Bennet]

Perfect! Like you said, once they're closer in the future, Tanner can definitely convince her to come to the meetings. She's cooked before and while she isn't the best cook, there are some dishes that she loves to cook. It's just that she doesn't like messes and whenever she cooks, she spends more time cleaning up every single drop and spill than actually cooking. Anyways, sounds great!
