UPDATE FEB 23RD, Added in Ebony. Now that I'm back, I'm looking for threads and plots for pretty well everyone; especially Ebony. Feel free to shoot me a PM or reply here with any ideas you've got.

I COULD NEVER FORGET THEE! Yessums we have tasty plots that I will not neglect. And that reply is coming but the motherbeast attacked me as soon as I got home from my trip...

Hi. I'm new. Tibby's my first character, a Finnish Spitz retro, and I'm looking to play him asap. My characters' personalities tend to grow a little sideways from how I apply them, but he's written as something of a people-watcher; enjoys studying people and pushing their limits, but doesn't have much interest in what most people consider "friends." He keeps himself a secret, but wants to know everything about you.
I'm not entirely sure how pack boundaries work here to be honest, so I'm not sure who to ask about plotting with. Tibby's plenty into exploration if he needs to go elsewhere to meet someone, or feel free to surprise him I suppose. Romantics are kind of at the bottom of his priority list right now, but I'm not opposed to introducing him to females - or having him hit on by females and males alike.

It'd be most likely that Tibby would run into Asher. Most of my Ring characters don't stray out to Retro territories, and Duke is kinda MIA for a little while until he sorts his stuff out after his trip to the Keepers. I also would definitely like to get Asher running flying around again, so I'm totally up for a thread! I have to warn you though, I just started uni and am pretty flat out, so I can't promise replies will be incredibly quick, though I try not to make people wait too long.
Asher can be a little moody, but if Tibby started asking intrusive questions, I can imagine he'd just answer them on the basis he might never see the little dog again anyway. Also, Ash doesn't really understand other creatures, since he's quite solitary, so he might have a few questions of his own. It takes a while to get Asher out of his shell but I think Tibby's sweet nature might help with that. Asher is a real softy inside.
So yeah, I'm definitely up for a thread. So let me know if you've got any other ideas for them at all.
ace - asher - valeria - aiden - duke - soren - ebony - klaus - queenie - phoenix
That sounds fine with me; I'm not in any huge hurry. I'm also a bit terrible at coming up with plot ideas with other people, so.. there's that. I'm just looking to play him at this point, get a feel for what he's going to evolve into.. Possibly having a friend on that journey could make it a little more.. enjoyable.
Would you like me to start a thread somewhere? .. actually, where might somewhere be?
Okay cool. Yeah my plot brain is completely dysfunctional at the moment... I reckon just throwing them in a thread and seeing what happens would be totally fine.
If you could start it that would be amazing! As I said, it may take me a little bit to reply until uni calms down. And as to where they could meet, you can probably make the thread in Nilda territory, if that's were Tibby is most likely to be found. Asher's a pretty lousy Lawaii so he's always flying off to different territories. He tends to spend majority of his time outside of the Lawaii mountains, so it'd be plausible that he would stumble upon Tibby in Nilda grounds.

So a couple possibilities struck me as I was reading through this. One was Charm/Ace - we could maybe get like a mentoring type relationship going with them, have her checking in and giving advice etc. I can't see her preying on his insecurities, but she would likely address them. Or Jace/Ace (HAH) if Ace wants to attempt to treat possibly the worst patient on the face of the earth. Jace wouldn't normally prey on his insecurities, but he could be provoked to it if he was in a bad mood. Another was Holly/Ebony - maybe they could be bros? Not sure on thread plots for them. And the last was Tori/Queenie, just because they're about as opposite-end-of-the-spectrum as you can get. |D
ANYWAY feel free to check out my stalker thread - linked in the sig - and creep these guys or any of the others that strike your interest. They're pretty much all available for threads.
Yas Ru plots! So excited for funstuffs with you xD I'm just gonna list a bunch of possible plots and stuff because I'm on holidays so I have time for threads and also my babies have been recently neglected. Feel free to add/subtract/ditch certain ones altogether. I'm totally up for anything!
Ace & Charm , I'd actually been meaning to bug you about a thread with these two. According to timeline stuffs Ace was made Chief Medic prior to Charm becoming alpha. So he's not entirely sure if she thinks he's good enough for the part. I think a good mentoring thread with these two would give him a good kick up the butt and help with his self-esteem issues. If he felt like his alpha supported his rank then he'd definitely feel a lot better about everything. He also really looks up to Legend, so I think he'd have sort of the same view of Charm. He can be a conceited, temperamental pain in the arse but he'd know when to respect his leader. Of course do expect some teenage sass every now and then =P
Ace & Jace , I feel like some of the Fulsi would laugh at this pair because their names rhyme xD But yas Ace needs more patients, especially now he has more powers to play with and to experiment using them to fix up shifterfolk. Ace is kinda impatient too so if Jace was being difficult Ace would start getting annoyed. Also, they're both vain so maybe they can have little one-up-manship type thing going on? Jace trying to insult Ace's healing skills and Ace just being like *bam* healed.
Ebony & Holly , Yas bros! She needs some bros since she kinda pissed of Lovely... Casually needing protection against crazy Carna =P I think Ebony would definitely need some more friends around her own age, and I can see her getting along with Holly. As for threads, I'm totally up for even just a chilling at Carna having a d'n'm type thread coz a lot of Ebony's seem to be high action. She needs some chill time with fellow females.
Queenie & Tori , This I would love to see. Queenie would be torn between wanting to respect her delta and also wanting to be like I AM PRINCESS and ordering him around. Although she also might try to get in good with him to see if it'd reap any benefits (like extra spaghetti lols) because she's all about staying alive. I also don't think she'd trust him very much... Maybe if he was super nice at one point she could start trusting him but she's learnt not to trust men in positions of power... I basically just think a thread with these two could turn out quite interesting.
Duke & Zuri , I kinda want to get him meeting some Bellator folks since he is second-in-command now and he feels sort of responsible for them. Her personality would intrigue him and he's always willing to humour someone so he'd probably go along with all the magic stuff. Do you reckon she'd be up for some human lessons? Cause Duke is all about teaching the retros to read and write in human english and stuff. So he could probably teach her if she wanted.
Asher & Necalli , This one is probably low on priority list because Asher muse hates me... At this point Asher is kinda crazy because he still can't control his telepathy, so I think it's always fun to just have him interact with someone and deal with being inside their head. He likes to experiment with other people in the M by intruding on their thoughts and sending them mind messages to test his power. Basically he likes screwing with people, but he secretly just wants a friend and is confused by life. Also if he found out Necalli was raised as a tame bird he'd definitely look down on the Jager. Asher's a bit of an eagle elitist sometimes...
Klaus & Roman , I'm not entirely sure how this one would go down but Klaus kinda needs to meet more viruses. He was given a conscience so it'd be helpful to hear about other virus opinions on the whole infect and kill everything aspect of life.
I think that's about all I got for now. Lemme know your thoughts and which ones you wanna get going first <3
ace - asher - valeria - aiden - duke - soren - ebony - klaus - queenie - phoenix
I have a couple weeks of classes/finals left, and even then my holidays tend to be a little cray, so we should probably just start with one or two. XDD I'm leaning toward Charm/Ace and Tori/Queenie threads, but let me know if you've got a different preference.

CONCHITA to JAYDEN
Conchita del Bosque is a seventeen year-old, female character who speaks Spanish and very little English. She is currently an Omega in FallenRing (or she's about to be; there's a thread up). Her shift form is a massive Flying Fox, and she is missing part of one of her legs. Here is her app.
I'm thinking a romance between her and Jayden could be fun. Maybe they don't get along at first, and then they slowly start developing feelings for each other? Maybe there's some action along the way?
Conchita would also be up to a "feisty thread" with EBONY.
TIGHEARNACH to VALERIA
Tighearnach is a medical genius, pretty much, and he's also a Christmas Tree Worm anthro in Nakoma (yay!). He is great at hand-to-hand combat, so he could teach her some of that. He has no experience with weapons, however. Maybe a romance could bud between them? Here is his app.
I can also throw him at KLAUS. Tighearnach is excellent at killing viruses, so maybe he hears of Klaus and decides to try and earn himself some recognition by going and killing him. Then, maybe he realizes that Klaus has morality and personality, and tries to teach him a new way of life. We could do something along those lines, or something totally different. What do you think?
ACE & CONCHITA , I think it could be interesting to have these two meet. Ace would probably speak like a teeny tiny bit of Spanish if he remembers any of it from his short-lived school days. Romance is probably a little less likely. I already kinda have plots regarding romance with this guy. He's also very loyal to Fulsi since he kinda owes them everything, and so he's the kind of guy to not see anyone outside of his Ring romantically. Even friendships outside the Ring are rare, though I think in Conchita's case it might be a possibility. He would definitely be suspicious of her at first, purely because she isn't Fulsi, but I think he could warm up to her. It'd be interesting I think if the romantic feelings were one-sided though - it'd certainly add to Ace's ego a bit I think. But yeah I'm thinking eventual friends probably. It'd take him a while though to admit that she's more than just a mere acquaintance... He's annoying like that when it comes to non-Fulsi. Mebbe when they meet she's been hurt in a brawl or something so he heals her? I think that'd make him feel more responsible for her and therefore more likely to care about her safety. I dunno...
EBONY & CONCHITA , Yas fight! Ebony is often in attack mode so this is probably likely to happen...
TIGHEARNACH & VALERIA , Haha she definitely needs someone to teach her how to fight. She's not too bad at it but she could always use more help. Mmm this girl has a lot of weapons somehow. I guess she kinda needs them though... But yeah I like this. I could possibly see it lean towards romance? I'd have to see how they work together in a thread before making proper decisions about this however. So I dunno. For the meantime though he can teach her how to fight.
TIGHEARNACH & KLAUS , Omg yes please! It probably wouldn't go well if Klaus found out he'd been killing off other viruses, since he feels more loyal to them and the Keepers than any other kind of being. But yeah he's often conflicted about feelings so maybe Tighearnach can help him out with that one.

I must really proofread my stuff before I click "submit". xD
When I said Tighearnach is skilled at killing viruses, I meant that he's skilled at killing the types of microscopic viruses/bacteria that afflict humans outside of the Menagerie. He's a medical genius, so he knows how to kill nasty bacteria. I'm thinking that he wants to help the shapeshifters and anthros in the Menagerie, so he decides to go kill a Klaus-like viruses.
But yeah, Tighearnach's a new arrival in the Menagerie. So he has not killed any Viruses in the Menagerie yet. :)
feelin' HOK HOK HOK aaahhhh I'm so sorry I completely forgot about this but uni has been destroying me
Anywho, Klaus would just be intrigued by him. I reckon he'd try to pretend he's an anthro (which he does most of the time) to try and gain Tighearnach's trust first.
I like all these things we have discussed though. I'll let you decide who of all of them you wanna thread first. I probs won't be back posting for another week coz all my assessments are due next weekend. After that though I'll be back and running around like normal.

Val X Connor: Connor is used to being on the higher side of the food-chain, and has strong predator instincts to match. He isn't the most compfortable in his human shift quite yet, but he makes up for it in knowledge. Connor's never met an Anthro before and he would be intrigued by her. Not sure if there's anything here, but eh.
Asher X Connor: Soooo much angsty testosterone bird-of-prey snark potential here. They would clash in such the best way xD
Valeria's ability to crack jokes and be humorous and genuinely happy, is something that Remy Screamer truly needs in his life. He has a tendency to crack jokes at an inappropriate time too, but more often than he would like it's just a facade to hide his real feelings of sorry. I think Remy could truly bond with Valeria and in doing so Remy would become very protective of her, as well as gain a reason to live more. App Link
ASHER & CHAQ
Chaq Balamut Also doesn't do a lot of talking mostly due to him being deaf. Maybe the two can enjoy each others company, simply because they don't have to talk, really? Not only that but Chaq is a romantic himself and it would be adorable if Chaq ended up leaving a rather fond impression on Asher.
