OOC PERMISSIONS
Player: Teresa
Preferred Contact:
Usual tagging times/pace: EST, I tag fairly regularly, at least once every day/every other day or so!
Backtagging: Of course!
Fourthwalling policy: Please do not fourthwall before asking me first! Same goes for spoiling Lord John to his own future as well.
Action vs. Prose: I prefer prose but I am happy to match style if action is your preference.
Offensive Subjects & Triggers: None that I can think of!
IC PERMISSIONS
Physical Violence: Lord John is an officer in the British army -- tl;dr bring it on!
Mental Information: Lord John is generally in a decent state of mind. He has his reasons for being depressive at times (dead lover, dead father, unrequited love, PTSD, etc), but he rarely lets those moments be known. In fact, is in the habit of keeping secrets, and he likes to keep them secrets. He wouldn't appreciate any telepaths digging around in his head. (But I'm not saying no oocly, just ask first!)
Physical Affection: OOCly, I am saying go for it! ICly, Lord John is an 18th century British noble, and so if you are too forward with him physically to start, it might turn him off. It's just not proper! (He's got to want to be improper with you, see?) Also he will not like it if you come onto him too aggressively.
IC Triggers: Oh man, let's see. I will edit this as I think of more things/as they come up, but triggers for Lord John include being too aggressive/domineering of him, talking about anything involving rape/dubious consent, homophobia, and suicide. Also some talk of war or bombs or guns might trigger him, but it's equally the sound of guns or anything loud and exploding as well (he is NOT a man who enjoys fireworks). Again, not to say that these things cannot come up, this is just a fair warning in advance of how Lord John will react!
Relationships: I am super open to Lord John developing friendships, family-type relationships, and maybe even romantic relationships, although the last I hesitate on. He is most likely to develop a sort of Friends With Benefits scenario with someone right now, but he will probably not be open to "love" as it were just yet. (His heart is effectively taken, tl;dr it's a complicated semi-unrequited situation.)
Are you interested in participating in the game's smut opt-ins? Lord John is definitely open to participating in the smut opt-ins, again so long as they are not too romantically-involved.
If yes, please state your preferences: His leanings are entirely M/M. Being 29 just now himself, let's set the age limit at 20+
POWER-SPECIFIC AND/OR SPOILER PERMISSIONS
These are not power-specific so much as that Lord John has a lot of potentially triggering topics in his own canon that I will note here if you would like me to leave mention out of our CR.
Firstly, his father was murdered, but it was made to look like a suicide, and as of this canon point as far as society at large is concerned, it was. John has a certain amount of baggage about that, since he was only 12 when it happened. Also, the first person that Lord John ever fell in love with died in battle and he's still not entirely over that death. Tl;dr grief plays a decent role in his daily life.
As a young man in the army, Lord John was sexually assaulted. He carries a dagger about his person these days to make certain that it never happens again.
Lord John is also a soldier in the British army who has been through his fair share of campaigns now, and seen his fair share of battle. He is no stranger to injury or death -- such is war.
He probably wouldn't do a lot of talking about any of these things aloud unless you were close with him, but they might come up in his narration. If you would like for me to avoid anything of the sort, please let me know and I will respect those wishes! All comments on this entry are screened.
