Luna | Marcus Grimm | Tales of the Rays

[mirrite]

Name: Luna (one of them!)
Contact/Timezone: LunaHoshino or LunaHoshino#2383 on Discord! I am EST but I keep vampire hours so don't be surprised to see me around at all times LOL

Character Name: Marcus Grimm
Canon: Tales of the Rays
Team/Partner: Team #1 (Phantom)
Blurb: HONESTLY THIS PRETTY MUCH SUMS HIM UP:

Marcus seems tough and brusque on the outside and he definitely is, but he is also... the Mom Friend. He's used to keeping the peace amongst a group full of Tales villains so if anyone can keep a level head under pressure, it's him. He is also basically the equivalent of a summoned familiar so he's initially going to be VERY distressed over losing that link to his master while at the same time being stuck with/linked to... someone who is very much NOT his master but who also is (it's complicated because LAUGHS IN TALES OF THE RAYS).

Looking for: ANYONE WHO IS NOT PHANTOM-- okay no give him people to fuss over and herd like ducklings, he needs that. Also some other adult friends to hang out with would be great, back at home Marcus barely gets the chance to do that between the Salvation Front and Phil so. LET HIM MAKE ACTUAL FRIENDS.
Offering: A big brother figure who can be supportive without coddling and also a voice of reason! Also a sparring partner if anyone is down for that because he is a fighty boy and he will have many, many reasons to want to work out his aggression now that he and Phantom have been shoved into the get-along shirt.

Other: The OU crew will get to see what Marcus is like when Phil ISN'T around, so, uh. Have fun with that. 8)

I offer you one (1) gremlin disaster for him to mom over but also i love the idea of marcus thinking that wei wuxian is an adult but no

he is just three years old

[mirrite]

PLEASE this needs to happen, Marcus needs more disasters in his life

[unenvying]

also this is just funny but given the whole tales and necromancy thing i really want to have that come up in conversation sometime

[mirrite]

THIS CAN CERTAINLY BE ARRANGED just expect the most absolutely deadpan look from Marcus...

[festiverogue]

Okay, he sounds amazing. My big bro/mom friend character (with complications) would like to be friends with him. And yes to sparring probably, though I don't know what weapons my boy can and can't use properly so uhhhh fisticuffs?

[mirrite]

MOM FRIENDS UNITE. Someone has to keep everyone else alive, especially because JUST LOOKS AT THIS GROUP

But yeah, he'd totally be down for that, he's very easy to get along with for the most part and he will definitely be wanting to punch something! (After he learns that punching his partner is Not A Good Idea...)

[festiverogue]

Honestly I was worried I was playing someone who would be a problem but looking at all the other problem children here I'm like... yeah mom time. Not that he's not also a problem. He is. But like he'll make you THINK he's not one and that's what counts!!

RIP please don't punch your partner and thus yourself...

[mirrite]

It's literally going to be the first thing he does when he arrives--

Good thing Marcus is VERY well-versed in dealing with problem children so he is going to look at this cast and go "for me, this is Tuesday" and then immediately proceed to mom, so yeah, something they can bond over for sure...!

[festiverogue]

That sounds about right yeah

Fabulous! Please ignore that this mom friend is also in the problem child column.

[mirrite]

BREAKS OUT THE CHILD LEASH

[festiverogue]

Gasp not the LEASH

[goodfaiths]

time to get cr with the other brother, marcus!!!

[mirrite]

YESSSSS this needs to happen

[fabulation]

offering (1) friendly book loving martial artist for friendo category. maybe they can even spar sometime!

[mirrite]

REACHES FOR yes they should spar and also just be friendos, Marcus will need some other sane people around...!

[cheerfuldays]

yes hello it is i. with a duckling. please help marcus, shizuku likes to go on walks and has no sense of direction or ability to remember street names.

[mirrite]

... she's like his husband master, only smaller and cuter...

Yeah he'll definitely look out for her because she will remind him a lot of Phil in that "someone please save them from themselves" way, haha

[cheerfuldays]

shizuku, not even realizing shes being mother-henned: :)

[ignihidden]

this duckling would much rather the supportive voice be coddling, please, he'd like to get home with as little self-reflection as possible thx!!

[unsinksyourship]

I have an adult (FAKE)— come to think of it Tamamori has a lot of people watching over him back home but I don’t think there is precisely a mom friend dynamic, should be interesting to see how things pan out. Honestly he is a lot more blustery and like a Tales side villain than anything lol…
