Hello Route!

[usedacrobatics]

My name's Kaley, I played Sokka and Youji Kudou here ages ago. Today, I'm bringing in Robin/Dick Grayson from the Young Justice cartoon series. He's coming in directly after "Home Front," so he's just had a very bad night of almost drowning, almost burning, and trying to keep his friends from getting killed, all after his first day of freshman year! He's a pretty snarky brat but fundamentally heroic, too.

His starter is a Taillow named Johnny, after his father and cousin 'cause they're both dead and I look forward to playing with you all! His IC intro is here!

Holy whiplash, Batman, you're superfast, too!! Thank you!!

MY ENTHUSIASM KNOWS NO BOUNDS

Also, I think I remember Sokka from way back when but in the interest of doing this all right and proper style — I'm Alex, I play Parker here, plus a tennis kid, a grumpy old man, and Carmen Sandiego. Welcome back!


Also I'm about to go tag your intro but I need to know your thoughts on fourth-walling. o/

[usedacrobatics]

My preference is that he not be told he's fictional. But if your character is just like "Oh hey you're Robin the boy wonder" that's cool because he expects to be recognized. they make dolls and posters of him I have no problem with people knowing he's fictional, just don't tell him?

It's great to be back, and I remember Carmen Sandiego, I thinnnk. I dropped Batman in during a fourth wall thread with her, and she's lovely.

FAB, that's about the policy I use with Carmen, too. Go go iconic pop culture characters!

...omg that Batman was you? I remember that! He was a lot of fun. c:

rofl yes, but playing him in a game is a) hard, b) intimidating, and c) HARD, so we have bird-boy instead.

It was great to play him off a master thief, omg. CRACKSHIP FOREVER.

OBLIGATORY AS ALWAYS

I am ridiculously excited for bird-boy, not least of which because my characters need more people to banter with forever. And also because Dick was always my favorite, I'll be real here.
