D4 // Pawn Shop Profiteers [OPEN CHARACTERS + MASQUERADE]

WHO YOU WANT: Charybdis (can I name her Aoife Calder-Libertine omg)

WHY: Lalia the Libertines are so good okay. I can't even. Plus Chary is such a good character - I really want to use the twin dynamic to create competition and it will be good and really fun.

WHATCHU WANNA DO WITH THEM (PLOT IDEAS PERHAPS?):

It was always Cilla who was on top, with her bubbly personality and beauty that shone like District Four's sun; hot and heavy, addictive. Aoife stood in the sidelines, watching, glaring, waiting for that one moment when someone would turn to her, comment on her beauty, her brains, the good traits that Aoife knew had to be there somewhere deep inside. But everyone's out to get her - they have to be, after all. They all wish that she would just drop dead, the obsolete one, the insignificant other half of Cilla the Great, Cilla the Strong, Cilla the Powerful.

Aoife know, just knows that she is alone in the world, with no one to turn to but her mother. But she needs to be cherished, maybe just once - none of that faux kindness that poisons her ears and clots her arteries with cloying sweet words - she needs love (love me love me somebody love me please so I don't die alone and afraid of my own reflection). For so long she's worked tirelessly to support Cilla the Caring and mother that she no longer knows who she is save for the spitfire of jealous rage that bursts forward whenever she glances at her sister.

When the fire nipped at her faces, dogs began to nip at Cilla's feet (see even the animals love her) and Aoife is now truly alone, with nobody but her two worst nemeses to keep her company. She hates what she's become - now her outside resembles her insides, charred and burned, bitter and scarred - hates herself with every fiber of her being. But just maybe, if someone were to truly care for her, she could be better. No, she would be better. Thus she searches for her family, for the father that abandoned them in the shack at the edge of the district, which once overlooked the great vast ocean but now is nothing but memories and ash. Yet her search is futile, for she seeks for the impossible; the cure to her problems lie inside of herself, not in the hands of others.



So in my head Aoife is the identical twin sister to Cilla and she has a huge persecution complex. She refuses to let anyone complement her or be her friend because she's obsessed with the fact that everyone's out to get her and don't really care about her and she doesn't want a Carrie-like situation to occur (involving copious amounts of pigs blood and so much laughter). So she's withdrawn and merely studies and works and glares at anyone who dares look her way. Deep down she just wants that love and affection, but will never be able to receive any in her current situation.

I really like Tristen's plot idea, except I feel like maybe Aoife would finally track down the father and they'll break into the shop for Aoife to show Cilla around but in reality Cilla just wants to steal things? I dunno xD

ANYTHING ELSE TO SAY: I would really love to be a part of this plot again. I know I had to leave before and I miss Jorge but I really love Charybdis and this plot and ajeorhijah'athbjea'; <3

WHO YOU WANT: Leviathan

WHY: He seems like a really complicated character who would be a whole lot of fun to write with! I have always enjoyed writing characters that can be quite sadistic in a way. I like characters who like to make people miserable, I mean who doesn’t? I can see him as this guy who is slightly insane; enjoying other pain and misery is one of the only things that make him happy, as well as food. Probably marry it of he could.

WHATCHU WANNA DO WITH THEM (PLOT IDEAS PERHAPS?): The scream filled the air. It was full of misery and despair and I couldn’t help but let a smile of pure joy slide onto my lips. This was one of the reasons why I believed that life was worth living. I peel my eyes away from the woman who lay sobbing on the floor. Tears coated her cheeks and her face was screwed up in pain and distress. Beside me was her little girl. Her daughter. I had never been one to kidnap, but just to watch as the mother pleas grew louder and louder- well there was something exhilarating about it- I could barely contain myself. The girl in my hands began to struggle, her feeble attempts to reach her wailing mother stopping as I place one heavy hand on her shoulder. “Standstill or you will regret it.” I sing into her ear, my breath rustling the little girls hair.

The woman’s cries soon began to fade as she hunched on the ground. The smile on my lips was still genuine. I loved to see people at their weakest. I loved the way they would cry for mercy- knowing that I am the person who wields all the power. Knowing I am the person who will make the next decision. They knew it, I could tell when I looked into their eyes and saw the fear there. It made me feel powerful, feel as though I was invincible. Ever since I was a young boy my parents spoiled me. Giving me everything I wanted, when I wanted. But there was only so much a boy could ask for until he was bored. I had reached that point, now finding my entertainment in the misery of others. I find joy in watching other cry out in pain, in distress. Others think I am mad, but me? I think I am the most sane person in this whole district.

All my life I had watched the games, and every year I wish I was that boy, that boy who would get that chance to kill people, to watch the fear in another’s eyes as I took that last blow. Every year I watch, every year the same jealously that burned through me the year before resurfaces. I wanted to be the one on that TV screen, I wanted to be that one sending fear through the other tributes… But that was one thing- one thing that my parents couldn’t buy for me, that I had to get for myself. One day- I know it- I will be that boy on that stage, accepting to enter the games where death and misery is the key factor.
