Jinkies!

Hey Holly Heights! I'm Schist and I'm bringing in one orange sweater loving, mystery solving science genius girl: Velma Dinkley from the Scooby Doo live action movies. She can be awkward, severely literal, and is absolutely terrified of romantic interaction, but otherwise, she's a sweetheart and generally gets along with most people.
I will be setting up a permissions post in her journal for possible fourth walling since she's quite well versed in many canons that are considered nerdy. This usually just applies to comic books and a few movies, but I figured I'd cover my bases. She would never betray even the thought that someone might be fictional (she'll probably justify it with a sci-fi explanation anyways). While I'm on the topic of fourth walling, let it be known that I'm perfectly fine with people recognizing Velma as a member of Mystery Inc., but not as a fictional character.
It's best to contact me on Plurk under the same username (Schist) for plotting or just chatting about things! I tend to be a slow tagger, but I've heard many good things about the backtag friendliness of Holly Heights.
I'll be introducing her either tonight or tomorrow!

In a less creepy way! Hi I'm Lane. Nice to meet you. :) I play Mizuki here and Hiyori.
no subject
I don't know either of the characters you play (I'm honestly not very familiar with anime), but I'm super excited to be here and tag with them!
Same person. ;3
Mizuki is from Hana Kimi and is disguised as a boy. Hiyori is a from Hiyokoi and really short. They're both from romance based series. /shrugs
I really hope you have fun here. :)
<3
Velma's petite too (I take her relative height from the classic tv show instead of Linda's height), so maybe they could run into each other shopping? Not that Velma shops much, but she might need more than one set of clothes... One would hope.
no subject
But is she 4'7"? XD Shopping is hard. XD The house does come with some clothes but if she doesn't like them she'll have to shop. ):
no subject
I play her in the range of 5' but I've read anywhere from 4'11' to 5' so... And lol the clothes, well if they aren't orange or maroon she's likely going shopping. Her and that damn color scheme.
no subject
Nice~ The Landlord most likely gave her more than one color. The clothes are up to you. :)
no subject
Velma: D: /does not know what to do with these other color schemes.
I see her donating them to goodwill and shopping at a thrift store for retro stuffs.
no subject
I don't think there's anything like a thrift store currently but there is a mall. XD

hello hello~ i'm jackie. i play bruce wayne aka batman, steve rogers aka captain america, and juliet starling from lollipop chainsaw. and i am
so
excited.
i can't even. how often do velmas roll around.
no subject
My research tells me that it can occasionally happen as a result of tripping during the act of being chased, or during instances of insomnia. Otherwise, the sweaters pill.
Speaking of sweaters, someone needs to finally talk a fashion sense into that girl.
no subject
LMFAO dhidhg omg. okay. i just snorted out loud and it was horrible.
we have a sharpay i'm sure she'll be alllll on top of that.
no subject
Both cities (I've never been to NY yet though) are exceedingly beautiful and remind me of what I picture Gotham to look and feel like. The fact that Pittsburgh has all the bridges and is a steel town originally helps.
:V She's only acrobatic when she's falling, sadly.
Velma's very D: about this. I feel no sympathy. >3
no subject
pittsburgh does have a very nice look for it. i think gotham is supposed to be based on like ~a new york a night~ but the architecture and stuff and the steeel pittsburgh has good looks. the combo should be gorgeous.
MASTER OF FALLING: VELMA.
no sympathy at all.
no subject
I can't wait to see that movie! Pittsburgh's architecture is love. Pittsburgh's (and I'm assuming NY's) winters are not. This is why I live in the Southern half of the US.
Though, she can rock a mean frisbee throw... Uh yeah. XD
She'd be so insecure in everything not orange/maroon, even if Sharpay pulls a She's All That with her and makes her all smexy.
no subject
i live in new york and the winters are very much not love. it looks pretty though but cold as hell ew.
she should play frisbee with captain america.
can maroon be a sexy color?
no subject
I can only imagine. I almost went to school in Pittsburgh, but decided that rowing in the winter in the wee hours of the morning didn't sound like my idea of a joyful activity.
OMG that would be adorable, as long as he doesn't over throw it? He has her beat physically after all.
I like the colors together myself, but it might be my love of Velma. :|a That and I think that the orange should be the accent color instead of maroon. I am special.
no subject
I look forward to playing with you! And speaking of backtagging I am a backtag pro so I hope you're ready
no subject
I am ready bb! All the backtagging ever.
no subject
OKAY BUT NO REALLY welcome to the game, my name is Jen and omg what a blast from the past... This is so awesome and it totally makes me want to rewatch the movie because I thought it was so cute when it came out c: I can't wait to see Velma around!

And I forgot to mention how happy you made me. Velma was my spirit animal as a child.
no subject
Well I'm so happy to hear that! I'm glad she seems to be fitting in so far.
no subject
I hope you enjoy it here! And Velma, too. Once she gets over the whole how-did-I-get-here brain-debacle.
no subject
Post how-did-i-get-here is when the real fun starts in games, especially with the science sorts.
no subject
The science and logic sorts are always the hardest to settle in, especially when they constantly try to tear the premise apart at the seams. But they're the most fun to play. c:
no subject
They are, but once they're in it's much fun. It's just the slow process getting there.
no subject
Would you mind if I quietly added you on Plurk? <:
no subject
Lazy with a capital L there mister. Velma will fix that! I wouldn't be surprised if she paints the walls of at least one room bright orange. Lucky for him she only wants to paint indoors.
She's already debating attempting to trade the sports car in for a more practical Volvo wagon. (I have no clue if this is even possible in game tbh.)
And of course! <3
no subject
The laziest. Good luck with that. And needless to say, I expect it. Bright orange. Bright orange everywhere.
(Why do I get the feeling she'll make it possible.)
Excellent! I'm pwnyo over there. /quietly adds.
no subject
There's nothing wrong with orange okay. It's very cheery.
(I hope she can, otherwise lulz gardening supplies in the shiny car.)
no subject
AND now for itnroductions! i'm norr and i play this guy (tony) from iron man/mcu, fandral from thor and dr. crane from batman begins. i hope you enjoy it here! (and yes thank god this place is backtag friendly sobs)
no subject
forever nice to meet you! I'm stoked to tag with all your guys!
