comeoutwrong | OOC: Yep, another one of those.

No newbies for me.... and I'm a little late on the bandwaggon to boot. Ah well.

Chuck Bartowski (knowsnokungfu)
"Maybe we should be introduced, I'm Chuck Bartowski: total loser, cheeseball addict."

Is from the TV show Chuck! Which is an awesome fun little show that deserves far more love than it gets. It focuses on... strangely enough, Chuck! A electronics store employee who goes and gets a bunch of government secrets stuffed into his brain and drama and comedy ensues. My boy, however, is pre-canon, and knows none of this.
Fifteen, nearly sixteen, now I think about it, about 5'10" (eventually he will get to about 6'4"), lanky, and the younger brother of awesomebigsis. Same universe an' all.
Has daddy issues. And mommy issues. But they are mostly covered in adorable goof, so you don't really notice them so much.
He is a little bit of a nerd.
... Okay, he's a lot of a nerd. In that cute and dorky way that just makes you love him to pieces and want to ruffle his hair and take him home.
The boy can BABBLE. Especially when he's nervous. It happens a lot around pretty girls and scary people. Doubly so around pretty girls who are also scary people. He runs into that more than you might imagine.
Also a hopeful little romantic, even if it rarely works out well for him. By rarely works out well, I mean in canon he usually ends up with a gun against his head or thrown out a window, or... whatever else could possibly go wrong. Poor Chuck.
He's really just a sweet, funny guy, and a little too trusting and too naive for his own good. He thinks the best of everyone.
One of these days he'll end up with that government supercomputer in his noggin and get embroiled in a life full of spies, danger and conspiracies. One day!
For those of you who don't watch and don't know: Chuck NBC Promo, and have a Chuck Sandwich. <3

Elizabeth Stonem (pastmewrong)
"She gave me that smile. That 'Effy' smile... That says; You don't know me at all, and you never will."

Seventeen, a senior now, 5'7", and my second lanky brunette, this time from British TV show Skins.
Cool, misanthropic and aloof, she's full of 'shadowy ways', and doesn't like getting close to people because they fuck you up... So she smirks and snarks and will generally pretend she really doesn't give a shit.
She gives off a very intense vibe, talks very little, and watches that bit too long. Unnerving, sometimes.
Posterchild for Fille Fatale. TV Tropes have a big picture of her on the page and everything. If there's a dirty implication to be made, she'll make it.
At the moment that side of things is all limited to one guy. Shut up. They do not call it dating, and no they will not admit there are a lot of complicated feelings involved there.
Is a little manipulative, a lot secretive, and has a lot of trouble dealing with (and admitting she actually HAS) emotions. She likes to think she's independent, completely emotionally unflappable, and needs no one.
This is a big fat lie. She is softening up, slowly but surely. Shh.
She is smart, but she hides it well, and finds reading people and situations a lot easier than actually dealing with the emotional side.
The girl does smoke, drink, swear and do drugs with absolutely no qualms. She'll also encourage other people in any of those activities. A good influence, she is not.
She has her reasons for this excessive substance reliance, those being some pretty major mental health problems, and the only way she knows to deal with it all is by muting everything.
It's the sort of issue that comes and goes in episodes (so trauma will sometimes kick off a break) but she's kept it fairly well hidden. She's not been so good at that lately. She's likely to drift off into her own world mid-conversation, say things that make very little sense... She's probably listening to another chat going on purely in her own head and got distracted. At least she's not gone full on Room of Crazy yet.
On another OOC note! If there's anything she says/does that bothers you, please please talk to me. She has a chunk of psychological issues, shows borderline addictive behaviour, can be abrasive and will manipulate people just for funsies if she sees the opportunity. She doesn't really do it to be mean, she just can't help herself sometimes. OOC =/= IC and communication FTW and all that.
And for those of you that haven't seen this one: Skins Season Three Promo and a couple of clips to give a feel for her. Warnings for the bad language and the casual drug use on this show.

I'm just going to link back to the alums Angela Montenegro, Cindy Mackenzie and Shawn Farrell, since they're off-island and less likely to be encountered!

Emma, 22 (oh god, I actually had to think to remember my own age) and British. We do exist. For reals.
I can be found on LJ as binx_349 and Twitter as the same.
Currently working full-time in a crazy office with a web-blocker that hates me to have any fun, and as such only really around on evenings and weekends up to abouuut midnight GMT (or, you know, 3-4am on weekends, just because I can). I will soon have a new job, which will probably be equally as timesucking.
When I am around, I'm often distracted by housemates/my boyfriend/killing things in World of Warcraft, etc. So. Special brand of slowplay.
I can be grabbed on email at 3.mackenzie[at]googlemail[dot]com or AIM at ihatefrills -- although I always forget to put up away messages, so if I don't reply it's probably because I wandered AFK without warning not because I don't wanna chat.
Also, I am 5'9", have two kitties and two harvest mice (its a miracle no one's been eaten) and live for mint flavour things.

And here can go questions, comments... curses for my linking of TV Tropes, etc.
