OK HERE GOES CHINATOWN BROAD STROKES trying to figure out what her characters have been doing, and what they might do in the future.
Disclaimer
I don't remember anything anymore. Like to the extent that it's genuinely embarrassing— from power stunts my character could do to relationships they had. PLS FORGIVE and gently (or aggressively) remind me as needed. I'm also finding the recent timelines with the three hundred new acronyms and multiple future timelines extremely overwhelming to get a handle on, so let me know if I get anything clearly wrong!
I'm generally open to plotting. Pitch me relationship or scene ideas, I will… RP… again… someday… I GUESS……. JUST EXPECT ME TO BE really self-deprecating about everything… WHAT'S HAPPENING… WHERE AM I.

OK FOR ONE THING THERE'S THREE OF THEM. FOR SOME REASON? WHAT WAS I DOING, EVER. CHINATOWN, WHY.
Original Flavor (unpowered)
Probably not going to play this one, but here he is anyway. Original flavor basic baby Teo is over in Europe. He came back briefly when conflicts were at their all-time high, and tried to help get the last of the Ferrymen's refugees to sanctuary overseas. I do not really know what international relations were, but he's pretty smart and has long eyelashes to bat at people, so I imagine he actually succeeded in helping at least a few families. As of 2018, he is now a lawyer and fighting for Evolved rights overseas. I hope "Evolved" is the right terminology, see, I have completely forgotten everything! And it's pretty bad. There's probably someone thinking about trying to get him to run for office but he still has the urge to punch people too often. No murder or blowing people up recently, though. He is a good boy still motivated as often by self-loathing and overwhelming forgiveness for the sins of others as by anything coherent.
Ghost (powered)
Our friendly local sociopath time-traveler! Back in ye War Days, he definitely killed a lot of people like a ninja, so fellow ninjas are welcome to be familiar with his tendency to utilize appropriate tactics, but ultimately Do Whatever He Wants If He Thinks It's Right. Partnerships have never lasted! Thanks to his psychic abilities and probably sluttiness idk, he never has a problem fleecing enough marks to live somewhat comfortably. As of 2018, he is working part-time casually with the Wolfhound program, where he toes the line, but occasionally gets up the vague mischief like going off comms when it seems like he might actually be motivated to straight-up murder someone for whom there is insufficient proof to satisfy the legal team. He never does, though. Secretly carrying a torch for Hana, unlikely to act on it. Less secretly crushing on Francois, likely to fuck with him about it. Somewhere inside his brittle black heart, there is a diamond too small to care about.
Very open for ninja shenanigans!! as well as other shitty behavior, drinking, carousing, mean comments, etc.
Mergey (unpowered)
Spends most of the War Times as a righteous warrior repping those of us who don't got powers but care about people anyway. He loses a lot of people (presumably NPCs, maybe also Eileen counts) over the course of the battle, and runs into a lot of Moral Injury issues— where innocents (actual innocents) get caught in the crossfire, likely due to some genuine mistakes on the part of both sides, but also lbr overzealousness. Starts to lose his taste for battle, despite the protection offered by Ghost's residual craziness in his head. He then QUITS and heads off to Virginia to stare from a mountain, a‘ la Luke Skywalker. He and Francois are On A Break [with an idiotic love triangle pending]. However, he can’t actually stay uninvolved for long because he's Teo, and starts to assemble unmanned craft/drones (like that TERRIFYING shit from Black Mirror) (as such) using Future Knowledge. Hana's power and subroutine/companion programming is required to patch over the tech knowhow he doesn't actually grasp— which should incidentally render any captured technology unusable by non-Evolved supremacists, at least for now— and he starts getting involved again.
Plan is to RP mostly with little robots and snitty texting for now, but he will at some point drive back to town and having a screaming catfight with Francois. Someone can come get him! I'm open to having a Rey to my Luke Skywalker. His Sadness Beard is back again. I can't believe I have to write two apps.

GETS ENGAGED TO RAQUELLE IN THE MOST HEARTBREAKING LOG EVER, AFTER RAQUELLE IS ACTUALLY CAPTURED BY THE EVIL FEEBS AND TAKEN TO ELTINGVILLE? It's super tragic, YOU SHOULD READ THE LOG, I JUST DID TODAY. IT'S SUPER NOT OKAY. I'M NOT OKAY. Anyway he gets rull mad and keeps in touch somehow, while struggling to get his family free. They reunite after the dissolution of the ghetto (I GUESS? THAT HAPPENED, RIGHT?). With Raquelle's support, he then joins the struggle. He probably spends a lot of time shooting bad people with his super leet sniper skills. His doggos eventually pass away, which hurts his heart real bad. But he gets a couple of new ones instead of giving up on life, and symbolically, they are more the support dog type than K-9 hounds. It's cute.
I think he and Raquelle should get married on-screen after their very long engagement. Just one man's opinion.
Right now he's involved in SESA. Focusing mainly on his family, but definitely around to give people the stink-eye or accidentally bond over doggos.
Others
I know I had others. Watch this space. I'm in a haze of confusion rn.
