Can you get seasick in space?

[hearsthesea]

Hello Drift Fleet, fresh meat coming in! I'm Steph and I bring to you Shirley Fennes of Tales of Legendia, a game about trust, family, and musical numbers. Shirley's coming in as lab support, because obviously fantasy sea world mage-healers are best qualified to handle a bunch of fancy medical equipment. She won't be very pleased to be dragged into a reality show when she's got work to do, but then who is?

Shirley's specific deal is that being the Chosen One for an angry ocean and angry ocean people kind of sucks and her personal problems mucked it all up further before she mostly got over her issues. Nowadays she spends her days as a diplomat who occasionally plays aggressive therapist to her friends, so if you've got a problem then she's out to help you! She...just might not always be pleasant about it.



She's still figuring out exactly how friends work so she acts kind of weird sometimes, but Shirley's a loyal person who aims to make everyone happy in the long run. Be friends with her, she's nice most of the time.

I'm over at elemental_shark if you want to add me for plotting and funtimes; otherwise, PMs work just as well. I'm really looking forward to playing here, and I hope to have a lot of fun!

Yay Shirleeeeeey! (ps, this is Mimi) :3

I have to admit, Legendia is the Tales of game that I remember the least about, but I remember loving Shirley and her cute little hair flowers and... yeah, I'm excited to be playing with you :D

[hearsthesea]

Legendia is basically 50% Senel and Shirley's personal issues and 50% Persona 4, Tales-style. That's it, that's the game.

Anyway, looking forward to playing with you again! ♥ Now that I'm staring at your journal I'm remembering how I get confused every time someone brings up Shirley Fenette. It'd probably be even worse if I actually watched the show, haha.

[wilder]

STEEEEEEPH.

[hearsthesea]

HELLO YUFF.

I AM NOT SURE IF I SHOULD BE COLETTE OR LLOYD IN THAT ICON.

[rebella]

Welcome to the game Steph! Shirley surely looks fun. I'm playing Ella from Ella Enchanted the novel around here, I hope you have a great time here!

[hearsthesea]

...I love your username. Just so you know.

(Thank you!)

[rebella]

Hahha thank you! She hasn't done nearly enough rebelling at things, I must get on this.

... Once I figure out the particulars.

[onlyanapple]

Hi there and welcome to the game! I'm TF and I play Crowley from Good Omens and Sokka from AtLA.

[hearsthesea]

Thank you, and those are some excellent choices! Looking forward to playing with you!

[catamite]

Welcome to the game!!

I'm Red and I play a pile of OCs that fail at many things and have many problems. So... I'm sure they will all get along well (or viciously butt heads) with Shirley!

Can't wait to play with you. :'D

[hearsthesea]

Eeeexcellent, this sounds like fun indeed! (And I won't lie, the second option especially sounds like fun shhhh.) I'm hoping to intro Shirley soon, but I figure I'll wait until the shuffle since that's done today.

[catamite]

I'm a sucker for awkward and problematic interactions, I'll admit.

And I can't wait to catch her in play!

[misconceived]

HELLO THERE FELLOW NEWBIE. My name is DJ and I just came in with Chris Halliwel (AU flavor). Tales characters are always awesome no matter what so I'm looking forward to seeing Shirley! Mind if I friend ya on skype? :3

[hearsthesea]

You could, but I use Skype once in a blue moon so it wouldn't be of much use. :( Sorry!

...And I was going to say I'd still love to talk, but it looks like we're now on the same ship so that works out!

[misconceived]

..............

I am

way too tired.

Because I totally meant to say "plurk".

[hearsthesea]

WELL YES, THAT I CAN DO.

Get some rest, man, I know the feeling.

[misconceived]

YES LET'S DO THAT ONE THEN

Sob I worked holidays in retail for the first time ever. Excuse me if it seems like I'm off in la-la land more often than not.

[hearsthesea]

Oh nooo, that sounds awful. :( I definitely hope you get some rest, then!

[theboogieman]

Hiii Steph! I'm Stick, welcome to the game!

I play a skanky angst god, a goothy teenage fairy, and... a dude who paints his face like a skull and hunts down vampires. All OCs because I have a problem.

[hearsthesea]

What a selection you have! Is the angst god a literal description?

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Mostly! This account is him. He's, uh, technically a demigod with dominion over all human pain and apathy, so... Yeah. He's an angst god.

[hearsthesea]

...I totally fought a final boss just like him in Shirley's game. :|

Except she was an actual goddess, and also trying to destroy the world, so not really. Hopefully Robin's just a teeny bit nicer!

[birdsbirdsbirds]

O-Oh no... Well, there was that really angry phase where he unleashed a swarm of evil on the world, and that one time he cursed an entire kingdom for several-hundred years... AND a couple times he's maybe killed dudes for no reason, but he's really trying to move past all that! :'|

So yes, hopefully a great deal nicer. He spends most of his time pretending to be a normal dude! And he loves people who are a little weird, and needs constant babying, so... maybe they can be... friends? C:

[hearsthesea]

Shirley may or may not have tried to commit genocide in the name of the ocean, so she really can't throw stones.

This sounds like it will a beautiful friendship.
