NAME: r (short for reili) CHARACTERS: Cairo (bestforyou) and Will Byers (demogorgoned) TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Cairo is half your typical cheerleader mean girl who's obsessed with the status that being "prom princess" gives her and half a really complex person who has hopes and dreams outside of being mean and negging people on the network. You just have to unlock the second half so she'll actually, like. Be vulnerable.
Will is that character who is having a bad time in canon and is still having a bad time in Ryslig. He's haunted as fuck (aka he has so much PTSD and doesn't always use a coping mechanism about it) and he's trying to "solve" Ryslig. It's like a tabletop game. He just has to make it through the dungeon!
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Cairo would like everyone to know it's CAIRO MONTH! (Her birthday. It's her birthday month.) She will be having a party later in the month pending the event info and she will be inviting everyone. She also works at an antiques shop that is run by slightly shady folk and they essentially liquidate things characters might have stolen or otherwise acquired if you're looking for a more lowkey CR in. Oh! And she runs a theatre group. Also she's temping vampire this month so that'll be fun.
Will is getting baby's first changes! He has a log up for November if you want to come meet a boy. He's also offering to draw people for [checks notes] 10 solars.
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: For Cairo, I'm mostly just interested in strengthening her existing CR and getting back on the horse after, uh. Moving and then getting the 'rona in September!
For Will, I'd like for him to make some friends his own age (15) outside his cast! I'd also like for him to meet some, uh. Less than good adults and shrug like "that's a responsible adult" bc adults in Stranger Things? lol. Listen, he just needs non-castmates to tell him "hey, Will? have you considered that Hawkins sucks ass?"
ANYTHING ELSE: Please don't link me moving images of butterfly and butterfly adjacent things (like fairies). Will and Cairo also come with some content warnings—Cairo has a page about them, but I should really. Make one for Will. But if you're avoiding S4 spoilers, Will can accomodate! Anyway, here. Have a meme:
So, Ash isn't really Will's age (18), but he has a habit of collecting broken kids. His canon is pretty rough, so he's not everybody's cup of tea, but if you're looking for somebody to have Will's back, I think Ash can be one of those people.
Also, one of his canon's messages is how much adults suck, so that could be a bonding point.
in stranger things terms, that counts! his brother is the same age, so will just kind of counts it as kid+ mentally. you're not adult enough to be in charge but you're adult enough to drive the car and ask questions you can't ask adults.
also i have actually read a significant chunk of banana fish so i already am kinda aware of the plot beats! they can absolutely bond over how much adults (that are not his mom, who's perfect no notes) suck.
Will and Ingo have already met in person but Cairo's network thread with him ended up being surprisingly nice so maybe they should meet in person sometime as well! Also Michael is always around to be a freaking weirdo at people.
oh i'd love for cairo to collect another older man and be like "i'm gonna teach you to be so woke" about it. she keeps doing this and i don't know why!! and you know i love michael so if you wanna toss him at me i'm sure it'd be funny as hell
hell yeah!! artemis can call her out accurately about the fact that her theatre group seems to only put on shakespeare rewrites and [checks notes] thinly veiled twilight fanfic

I think their current thread is a good start. Ash is going to want to make sure he's okay.
