adventureooc | meme - state of the characters #2 + new character brainstorm

✦
sotc #2 + brainstorm
✖

It's time for another State of the Characters meme! A place to reflect on what our characters are up to, and what else they might need to help them flourish. I'm also going to include a section for brainstorming new characters, if anyone is thinking of picking up another (or two... or three...), since the ✨season finale✨ of the current metaplot is coming up soon, and could be an easy entry point for new lil dudes.

HOW THIS WORKS:

Put your character's name in a comment header under Forms, then fill out the form below.

Post another header with their name under Reactions so that people can react there (please don't comment to character forms directly in case their players want to edit!).

THE FORM:

Character name: bracken hemming

What they've been up to/what their current mental state is/what they're gonna be up to in the coming weeks:

his & briar's relationship continues to improve, he's proud of the baby wolves, he has 24/7 access to broderick, a blue cat won't stop following him around, he feels freer than he literally ever has — everything's coming up bracken ✨ (except then i was reminded about the metaplot LMAO oops see below)
self-worth is as always an uphill battle, however. WHATEVER IT'S FINE. also a big man with even bigger feelings but inadequate words to articulate them, pls stand by while he continues to fumble.
(he's still an anxious mess just in case that wasn't clear. he's doing BETTER and maybe even WELL but he's spent well over 30 years internalizing the bad stuff so it's a tough mindset to break lmao)
i forgot this part: the "cadmus is actually an unethical prick and this place is built on toothpicks" situation is making him VERY UNCOMFORTABLE because he was starting to feel stable for the first time in a long time and the teleportation means he can visit his daughter waaay more than twice a year — he doesn't want to stay and get trapped, he doesn't want to lose those benefits, and he ALSO doesn't want to leave whoever may still be trapped to stay trapped. it's one big confounding mess.
coming soon? telling his people that he has a daughter was The Big Hurdle for him and now he's finding his footing there, i need to figure out some more mess for this boy. maybe we'll let him study for the GED, maybe he'll find a passion for pickleball, who knows. i need to have a think about where he's headed.
also possibly coming eventually: rin and i are discussing a hemming pack plot. :x (don't let the phrasing fool you, 100% not just for wolves)

Anything they need ICly: idk!!!!!! as always i'm happy to use him to facilitate someone else's character dev, hmu if you have need!

Anything you need OOCly: MORE YARD PEOPLE! MORE ACTION [DEPARTMENT]!

Wanted lines: i would looove more yard-adjacent characters, like wranglers or a vet or whatever strikes yr fancy.

Anything else?: thank you everyone this is still so much fun!!! 💜
