oh god i'm so glad dana went first HELLO ALL... i chatted with many of you on the initial interest check post but to go over introductions again, i'm isa and i'm playing a character my friend pax described as "dirty little mop of a girl" and "little wrung out wretch" — rudbeckia de borgia, from the webnovel how to win my husband over.

in summary, she's a huge compulsive liar due to a massive amount of endless trauma in both her former and current lives, so she's really really fake but rarely in a malicious way. she just genuinely thinks that Something Terrible Will Happen if she isn't on alert at all times. she's someone who behaves cute, dim-witted, and people-pleasing; on the inside she's defeatist, terrified, and wary of others. i'll have a game-specific info post up eventually, but here's her general info/impressions and very importantly her CONTENT WARNINGS. she goes through some shit and some of it will very quickly make an appearance in threads.

she's also a nightfell crau so PURGATORY CREW SOUND OFF... tell me who she has now canonically kissed after the mistletoe event. it's important to me. check back on her au plotting thread in like ten minutes and i'll have something there for that too!!

lastly, huge apologies to anyone who i didn't get back to on the tdm!! i was working six day weeks that whole month so i was foolishly keen to jump in and then fucking. died. i have only just now recovered in this past week. BUT I'M BACK AND READY TO INFLICT MY PATHETIC BABYGIRL ON EVERYONE.....

[hasteful]

ALKSDHFAD i know people get antsy about being first but it's ok i have no shame.......

but excited to play with you, isa!!!! lifts her up high. we can try again with threading for sure, i absolutely want to get cr with her! she can lie and manipulate and gaslight as much as she wants, buzen will support her regardless you go queen

[appeale]

SHE IS TRULY GOING TO HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO WITH BUZEN... WHY IS HE LIKE THIS....... ruby's reactions to him like when a really big dog you don't know approaches you and it seems friendly but it's TOO friendly so you're like. raising your leg to try and fend it off from jumping up at you.

[hasteful]

this is so real and true......... the real answer for why he's like this is bc he's a sword who has no standards for people and therefore by default likes everyone, but also he's just a nice guy y'know! it's ok his eq is better than it looks so he'll try not to make her uncomfortable even tho he definitely errs on the side of.... very friendly

[appeale]

"he'll try not to make her uncomfortable" buzen i'm sorry but this is literally impossible.

you're mean to her = scary, you might hurt or kill her
you're indifferent to her = scary, it's only a matter of time before you hate her and then hurt or kill her
you're nice to her = scary, either you're just tolerating her so your kindness is a very limited resource OR she's inevitably going to disappoint you when you realise she's a wretched person and then you'll hate her and abandon her

[hasteful]

i'm losing my mind buzen just like "what happened to this perfectly nice human look at her, she has so much anxiety"

WELL!!! HE'LL BE NICE TO HER NO MATTER WHAT!!!!! and given that buzen has his own chunk of war crimes being a literal sword he won't have room to judge..... it's okay he'll still try to be a therapy golden retriever and keep her safe....

[sanguinary]

me peeling back the outer layer of this character and seeing what's inside like "ISEKAIS ARE WILD......" but hello!! i'm aki!! i can't remember if i ever introduced myself before im in tears my terrible memory, very hype to tag you here too though and get some cr with this dirty mop help

[appeale]

IT'S OKAY I ALSO DON'T REMEMBER swiss cheese brain........ BUT I'M KEEN TO PLAY WITH YOU AKI!!! ruby immediately adding matsui to her "useful for keeping me alive as long as he doesn't kill me" list (it's a long list)

[sanguinary]

SHAKES UR HAND AND CRIES IN THE SWISS CHEESE BRAIN CLUB we're doing our best... ruby is too i think even though i'm constantly beholding her like "I THINK THIS GIRL NEEDS HELP"

[humainity]

Hello!! I know nothing, but she sounds delightful and Sophia will probably be like "ah yes here who is a human who definitely needs support" and react accordingly.

[appeale]

HELP ALL THESE NICE CHARACTERS ARE GOING TO STRESS HER OUT EVEN MORE THAN THE ONES SHE THINKS WOULD KILL HER...... i'm so sorry for the fact that ruby will inevitably be very nice and friendly with sophia while always thinking about how this is all TEMPORARY and she'll get ABANDONED and she CAN'T RELY ON KINDNESS,,

[hexensabbat]

hello isa, it's so nice to meet you!! this girl sounds so wild but also i support her? i already support her with all of my heart it's fine

[appeale]

she's an extremely normal person which is why in every game i play her, i have to keep a spreadsheet of how positively or negatively she thinks characters react to her various manipulative behaviours and her cr charts are just a graph where one axis is useful/useless and the other is low/high threat level

SO..... thank you for supporting her as she inevitably loses her mind from her own paranoid stress

[hexensabbat]

omg i love her more and more by the moment I LOOK FORWARD TO PROVIDING CR OF... WHATEVER SORT IT ENDS UP BEING

[paraselenes]

HI ISA I HAVE TO RUN TO THE AU PLOTTING TO SAY HI AGAIN BUT i'm so happy you could stop in!! i love this pathetic babygirl and i support her in all her alive and dead ways. i assume they kissed also, don't look at me

[appeale]

YEAH DIMITRI WAS HER FIRST KISS IT'S CANON!!! sorry dimitri.

[nagano]

my condolences but it's once again time for ruby's constant existential dread to be broadcast at 205% volume
