/rolls out the red carpet

[preparetrouble]

...I’m just gonna leave that there.

Hello, Route! More returning players here - Fetchie and Spear, who’ve brought in a variety of characters over the past year or so. Today we’re introducing a couple of Rocket grunts, Scanty and Kneesocks from the equally-lingerie-themed Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt, Gainax’s response to late-night American TV. (Think bright colors, bawdy plotlines, and as much Engrish profanity as they could stuff in 20 minutes since that didn’t trip the censors.)

Scanty and Kneesocks are a pair of demon sisters who, in contrast to their canon, believe strongly in proper behavior, self-discipline, and above all rules. These girls love rules, man. Getting the Rocket handbook will be like Christmas all over again. (Whether or not demons celebrate Christmas. It doesn’t matter. THIS WILL BE BETTER.)

They’re also kind of full of themselves and passive-aggressively snark at everybody in an extremely girly fashion - and are consistently made of fail when it comes to evil plots - so yeah, everyone have fun with that.

IC intro to come later in the week - in a spot of epic timing, one of us restarted school this week and the other’s visiting her family. Regardless, expect to see them make an appearance and in the meantime:

We can also be reached at fetchie88 and sevenspears respectively, and are super excited for villain shenanigans. But until then, we bid you adieu~!

I just want to tell you how much I love those usernames. And that is a lot! eeee~ Can never go wrong with more Rockets!

[makedouble]

Why thank you~

You can't go wrong with more rockets!

[timelymaid]

+1 to great usernames

I'm Lucy with Aradia Megido, from Homestuck. Like everyone in her canon, she types in a very specific way that be viewed and opted out of here. Also you can add me at ~lucylovespluto on plurk if you like! No, I will never figure out how to do that snazzy plurk username thing.

[preparetrouble]

Homestuck quirks are fine by me!

It's nice to meet you, Lucy - looking over the comms while considering rejoining the game, I've enjoyed reading your Aradia a lot. :)

[timelymaid]

It's nice to meet you, too! And thanks, I'm really glad to hear that! I'm canon blind on these two, but they look like really fun additions to Team Rocket!

[preparetrouble]

She's a lot of fun, I'm excited to play with her at some point!

PSG is...definitely an acquired taste, but there's actual TR homages built into the show for these girls, so. We'll see how this goes.

[timelymaid]

Haha, yeah, I've seen clips/gifts and the like, so I can see how it might be. I didn't realize there were TR homages in the show, though!

[preparetrouble]

It's very brief, but yeah. They recite a motto sort of thing and then their animal companion pops up to say his name. XD (Plus they have that whole "pair of villains who fail every episode at the same damn thing" going for them.)

[timelymaid]

That is the BEST kind of villain, though!! I may give it a shot sometime. >> I do like homages.

[makedouble]

Oh Aradia *-* Homestuck is always good in my books

It's nice to meet you!

[timelymaid]

Good to know! :D And it's nice to meet you too!

I really cannot get over these usernames, they are the best.

[healium]

yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss so excited omg

also i play vanitas and he had a run in with a previous kneesocks.. who used ven to kidnap him to tr headquarters, where he got a beating. so, kneesocks, prepare for Vanitas to recognize you >3 and make a nasty face.

[makedouble]

Thanks for letting me know! She will make a nasty face right back at you, Vanitas.

[healium]

|D also I so look forward to these two's shenanigans, I was kind of overly estatic about the apps!

[decrees]

Oh man, I was so excited to see these two coming in to Team Rocket! I can't wait to play with you both! I'm Redd and I play Frank Archer (Fullmetal Alchemist, determinator), Isaac McDougal (Fullmetal Alchemist, glaciates), Ryuunosuke Uryuu (Fate/Zero, greatestcool), and Logan here (from Fable 3). 3/4 of them are in Team Rocket, so I'll definitely be tagging you both with... someone!

[preparetrouble]

Hello again! :D I'm actually the mun who played Malik Ishtar here last year, so I'm glad you and Archer are still in-game (sorry we never managed to get our plot off the ground - how is the Psychic stuff going?).

I am always up for Rocket stuff at any point!

[decrees]

It's good to see you again! I am so bad at remembering mun names, sorry! Archer's actually managed to make quite a bit of progress with it! He attacked Falkner and stole his Pokémon back in December, but he's planning on something much bigger in the future! (Possibly February...?)

Rocket shenanigans are always the best! I'm not sure how my characters will react to these two, but we'll see how it goes! \o/

[preparetrouble]

np~

The Falkner attack was him? That's kind of awesome. XD I'll look forward to playing with you again & seeing what he's up to next!

[decrees]

Well, him and Kimblee! Because Archer can't do anything on his own lbr... And he does have some things planned in the future (read: working Kimblee to the bone, whoops)! I can't wait to get more CR with you! ♥

[honourablevillain]

Between those two and Chase, Team Rocket just gained all the class. B)

Perhaps we can get them to meet for rocket training?

And hey, if he's more up your ally, I have a little Sasuke Uchiha for you to bother as well. I'm Rizu by the way, and welcome to the game -- both of you!

[preparetrouble]

You bring the wine. We'll bring the hors d'oeuvres.

that's a yes re: classy rocket training

[chosen_light_child]

Welcome back you two!

[preparetrouble]

Thanks (and hello)! It's nice to be back.

[foxfiring]

I just finished watching this series the other day! XP

I'm Levi and I play Ushio/The Girl In The Illusionary World from CLANNAD, and this one here.

Ahri's a new member of TR too, and I really look forward to playing with you two! And just a heads up, it's likely they'll bump heads at some point, because Ahri generally doesn't play by the rules.

[preparetrouble]

Well, that's an unfortunate trait to have in a coworker. >P Rules are for her own good, you know!

I'll look forward to playing with you~

[combat_butler]

uh oh

it's time to break
