Characters: Fenimore (blessingone, also known as "my only character"): A lot of her time is spent raising Sophie (lostlegacy) and doing her share of the housekeeping around House 34, but she uses what spare time she has on such things as walking, swimming, or reading (mostly comics). Since she turned 19, she's been getting increasingly antsy about her perceived unproductivity (she doesn't really count raising Sophie since she's not her kid and the task is shared), but she has no idea what she would do so that hasn't actually had any effect on her activities. After the spirit possession event, she took a section of the yard not covered by Grune's gardens to make a small patch of her own (though Grune probably often forgets and looks after it, too), as she had grown kind of fond of Faeren. Particularly recently, she went on a picnic date on the 17th down by the southern/eastern lake with Rei. Thread jury remains out on how that turned out right now. Oh and I should mention that a mission saved her from experiencing the AU and she's pretty happy about that, if a little confused about what exactly happened.
CR Opportunities: * Fenimore lives in House 34 with Grune, Norma, Sophie, Walter, and Oscar, which can be identified from a distance because Grune keeps adding to the gardens in the yard. She's usually reluctant to give the address out to people she doesn't know well enough to trust, but Grune in particular remains a large information leak. * Raising Sophie restrains her movements to a certain extent, but when she does have spare time she is outside fairly often. In the middle of town, groceries need to be gotten and she sometimes browses the clothing store in order to weed out any Ferines-style clothes from people wearing them without understanding the cultural significance. When she's just out walking, she sticks to less busy places and often will stick to the outskirts/along the river (though on days she's in a particularly good mood, she can be found near the fountain even if that's really busy for Luceti). She also goes swimming (fully clothed -- it's a Ferines thing) in both the lake and ocean, but she often is reluctant to do so when other people are around, as she runs the risk of breathing underwater without thinking and revealing that her hair glows. Why is that important? Well... * She's not human and has some trust issues with humans she doesn't know well (though she is fine with individual humans once she knows them). Lots of scars beneath her clothes, lots of trauma in her backstory. It's all dramatic and explosive and I enjoy getting to touch on that, but I try not to bring it up too often to avoid attention-seeking. * Fenimore has been getting off-and-on training in the Kyoshi Warrior style for two years now. I think it's currently off? But she does still practice, mostly in the backyard of House 34. She's somewhat doubtful of the benefit as actual self-defence and at least partially does it just for the satisfaction of doing it. I have high hopes that one day, a draft or a mission will place her in a position to learn that, nope, it's actually doing her some good. This might set off its own issues at some point, but I'm already going on way too long as it is, so that's left for the future. * Fenimore has vaguely been pondering learning Filial magic after being possessed by Faeren (seeing it as rescuing her from Twila, she's actually grateful about it). One day she might do something about it. She'll need a lot of help, though, because she's dreadfully bad at magic and her spiritual senses are really low for what I perceive as a pretty spiritual species. (She actually has her own magic from her world, but...dreadfully bad. Still mightn't be too bad to work on it one day.) * Sometime in the near future, she's going to be asking for someone to teach her how to use the Battle Dome programming system. This will probably be a post when I have time for one. Her main goal is for entertaining Sophie (after hearing about an airship adventure courtesy of Cecil) and maybe educating her on her parents' homeworld, but it may have side-benefits. * She likes to pretend she knows more about advising other people's romances than she actually does. So sometimes she sticks her nose into people's requests for help on dating. Other journal pings I usually have trouble pinning down in a general sense, though she almost never replies to things that she thinks will bring the attention of the Malnosso on her. She might try to respond anonymously if she really needs to, though. * Oh and she has a big monster bird pet like nearly her size. Thanks to Grune's influence it is completely docile and pleasantly plump. It would be mildly dangerous if it was aggressive (like, mid-Tales-game random encounter), but that's not likely to be a problem.
A good way to contact me is: So I am on plurk (yobousiesho), have an email address (yoshimitaaki [at] yahoo [dot] co [dott] uk), and get notified for PMs. I also have AIM and Skype, but I would have to be poked on one of these other methods to be made to come on.
Anything else?: And yet despite all these words I am certain I've sleepily forgotten something. :|a Anyway, I tend to be quite slow in tagging, so one should be prepared for backtags if tagging me. I am grateful for the patience of the people I tag.
