OCs vs. A Cockroach Tag

Thank you for the tag, @dysthanasia-series. I'd seen this one floating around and was delighted to finally get tagged for it myself. Going to do this one for the Empty Names cast.

Rules: rate your ocs on how well they'd fare against a cockroach

Passing the (optional) tag to @kyofsonder, @jinnybinghamsghost, @friendzonefrog, @blind-the-winds, @talesofsorrowandofruin, and an open tag for anyone else who wants it.

Rating on a scale of 0 [abject defeat] to 10 [flawless victory]:

Lacuna: 3/10

She tries to catch the roach under a cup or similar containment vessel so she can throw it outside. Due to a combination of mediocre coordination and flinching every time the roach moves too suddenly she ends up accidentally squishing it instead. She flushes the remains, thoroughly sterilizes the impact site, and spends the rest of the day being sad about having killed it.

Ashan: N/A

He's spent more than half his life on the road in pseudo-medieval fantasy world, and that involved a lot of wandering through woods, sleeping in questionable roadside taverns, and going down into monster dungeons. And since coming back to Earth he's spent most of his night sleeping in public parks and alleyways (while levitating a foot off the ground and surrounded by a perception-filtering privacy ward). Anything smaller than a large rat that isn't actively trying to bite or sting him doesn't really phase him. Live and let live, he does not engage the cockroach.

Eris: 8/10

She successfully catches the roach under a cup or similar containment vessel and tosses it outside. Or just steps on it if she's in too much of a hurry to bother. Either way she marks on her shopping list to get replacement roach traps for the apartment the next time she's out.

Sullivan: 1/10 or 10/10 (conditional)

If he's home alone, he spends the rest of the day tearing his hair out as he meticulously stalks the roach, charting its movements, trying to figure out how and why it got into the Bridgewood Manor pocket dimension and why the cleaning and maintenance golems haven't disposed of it already. Is it someone's familiar? A cleverly disguised construct? A spy? An assassin? A message from his dearly departed wife? All of the above? Surely it couldn't possibly be just an ordinary cockroach? Could it?

With an audience however, he skips all that questioning and goes straight to producing the thinnest knife you've ever seen, skewering the roach from across the room, walking over, picking up the pinned insect, staring the most squeamish person in the room dead in the face, and then swallowing it whole.

Road: 10/10

They befriend the roach with a snack so it crawls into their hand and then they gently take it outside and find a rotting log or something to put it under.

Meet my OC, Meeje (Meganeuropsis permiana) prefers themself a non female or male as meeje is confused about a how the world is

Ok, while seeing other MvA fans upload MvA fanart, I thought I'd join the bandwagon.

Unfinished/perhaps WIP MvA A/U, also starring my OCs who were in Area 5X for some time but not there anymore when Susan arrived, von Wolfmann the Bavarian/German wolfman (imprisoned 1959-66) and the Cyberian the late-Soviet-era incomplete cyborg (imprisoned 1981-85)

[Susan, the newest member of Team Monster, gets acquainted with the monsters in a very unconventional setting in a boarding house run by Monger]

[The President secretly befriends the well-mannered, seemingly well-meaning aliens invaders. And things kinda go downhill from there. No, he wasn't drunk when he made that decision.

"He spent his whole month's salary on hard liquor?!?"

"He wanted a drinking partner. "]

TBC cuz Tumblr only allows 10 pics in a post

OC vs cockroach

Thanks for the tags, @illarian-rambling here, @willtheweaver here, and @dyrewrites here!

Rules: rank your OCs based on how well they would do with a cockroach

Lexi - 4/10 would scream and get as far away as she can and keep throwing stuff at it until it dies

Maddie - 11/10 would turn into a cockroach and try to lead it out of the room

Ash - 10/10 would just pick it up and take it outside

Gwen - 7/10 would jump noticeably and tense up but immediately finds a tissue/napkin/etc to go squish it

Robbie - 3/10 would let out a series of expletives and scurry out of the room

Akash - 5/10 would keep flying toward the ceiling and hang out there until someone else takes care of it

Jedi - 9/10 would get a paper for it to crawl onto to take it outside

Carmen - 6/10 logically knows it can't do anything but still refuses to touch it

OC vs. a cockroach

Thanks for the tag, @oh-no-another-idea!

Rules: Rate your OCs on how well they’d fare against a cockroach.

Let's go with the Rival kids for this:

Ambrose: 2/10 - a roach? in his shop? he thinks the fuck not. that sucker is OUT. GONE. ANNIHILATED

Eli: 5/10 - doesn't like 'em, but isn't as fazed by them. Will toss them out in the street or kill them if he can't easily throw it somewhere.

Dawn: 1/10 - screaming. so much screaming. probably grabs a blast wand and kills it that way. there's so much destruction. it doesn't matter, the thing is gone now.

Sherry: 7/10 - similar vibes to Eli, but far more efficient.

Banneker: 10/10 (or 0, depending on your opinion of roaches) - absolutely doesn't bother him unless they're in his kitchen. he's probably set up a tiny bed for them somewhere in his workshop.

Grim: 8/10 - swift, silent, no-mercy murder.

Tagging in turn, with zero pressure: @akindofmagictoo, @zmwrites, @winglesswriter, and @tc-doherty!

OC vs Cockroach

@thepeculiarbird sent me this one - thank you! go see how her OCs deal with this disaster here. passing along the tag to @finchwrites, @indecentpause, @space-writes, @notwritinganyflufftoday, and @dyrewrites, plus an open tag for anyone who wants to torment their characters with household pests 😈

Rules: rank your OCs based on how well they would do with a cockroach

have a grab bag of OCs from various projects, ranked from high to low in order of competency (plus, the tumblr debut of Jules, V, and Jacqui from my new, very-tentatively-named WIP: You Up?):

Jacqui: Catches it in a tupperware and takes it outside. Then throws away the tupperware, washes and sanitizes her hands, and performs a ritual to magically bug-proof the building for the next month. 12/10 for preventative measures.

Mina: Throws a shoe across the room at it. Nails it in one hit. 10/10. FATALITY.

Jules: Uses the double-plastic-cup method to catch the roach. Takes his new buddy on a tour of the nearby dumpsters until he finds one the bug seems excited about. Releases the bug into the alley of its choice. 10/10.

Baz: Scoops it up in his bare hands. The feeling of it skittering around kind of breaks his brain for a minute; stands there, awkwardly holding a cockroach, until someone reminds him to put it outside. 7/10 because it does end up outside eventually.

Lienzo: Pretends he doesn't see it until someone else shows up and deals with it. If he has absolutely no choice, he'll find the largest, heaviest thing he can and smash the roach. Then there's the crisis of how he's going to clean it up. 5/10.

V: Jacqui says they're not allowed to use alchemical bombs on household pests anymore. So they grab the lighter and hairspray. 3/10.

Phi: Makes scathing comments in the roach's general direction until it gets the hint and leaves. This doesn't work very well. 2/10.

Qedlan: Looks up the correct way to deal with cockroaches. This takes long enough that he loses sight of the bug. He can't find it again. He lives in fear for the next week. 1/10.

Ari: Calls Mina to come kill it for her. When Mina inevitably refuses, she resigns herself to living with it. She names it Roachfort. It lives in the corner with Spedro (the spider she couldn't kill last week). 0/10.

OC vs. Cockroach

Tagged by @mysticstarlightduck here! I had to do this one right away because it was too funny to imagine and I need a break from writing…

Rules: Rate your OCs on how well they’d fare against a cockroach

For the Tomb of Light cast:

Hettie: 9/10 Hettie loves bugs and little crawly creatures (snails are her fave thing ever). She has seen a lot of roaches in her life and while she doesn’t mind them, she recognizes they are pests. Lavender is a natural insect repellent and she would have plenty of that on hand to harmlessly deter them from coming back.

Oliver: 0/10 Hates nature, hates bugs. He has spent the majority of his life indoors and doesn’t like things that live outside. Including people. He would see the roach and scream for dear life until it was removed from sight.

Adrin: 10/10 He spent his childhood outdoors being bitten and swarmed by everything nearby. He thought it was hilarious to sneak roaches and spiders into his house to scare his mother. He would help Oliver out, mostly to shut him up, but also because he doesn’t mind touching them.

Mara: ??? She knows a good source of protein when she sees one.

OC vs Cockroach Tag Game

I'm back (or trying to be, at least) and will try to catch up on my asks and tag games, my friends 💜

Thanks to @illarian-rambling for the tag (here)!

I'll go with some of the characters from the main cast of my WIP Of Starlight and Beasts (since I've already done this for a few of my other WIPs, such as Enchanted Illusions and Realms of Loss if I'm not mistaken)! This is going to be fun (:

Corah 9/10 - Doesn't really mind it, as long as it's like, scurrying far away. But will step on it no questions asked if it gets too close or starts being a bother, though all her courage towards it will vanish when the roach starts to fly.

Arammys 6/10 - Is very curious, albeit disgusted and from a distance, about the strange creature. Probably doesn't want to kill it, but is very uncomfy with the bug all the same. One of his friends either kills the roach for him or takes it far away.

Eidan 12/10 - Drop kicks it so fast even the roach's atoms cease from existence. Cosmically obliterates the roach with that kick. Does it so fast his friends are probably in shock at his reflexes. Proceeds to walk it off like nothing happened and tries to carry on any interrupted conversation too.

Rin ???/10 - Eats it as a lil snack. 😃 In front of everyone. Making unbreaking eye contact. Is probably unaware of why everyone is so disturbed by what he just did too.

Masen 1/10 - Will scream and try to jump into somebody's arms, climb some kind of furniture, or stand behind Kyran (or anyone who can stand in between him and the bug as a shield) until the insect is dealt with. If the roach flies towards him or worse, touches him, he'll probably cry and end up vomiting.

Tomasa 9/10 - Depends on her mood. If she's happy and generally okay with life, she'll gently just find a jar or something to pick up the roach and take it outside to nature. If not, shoes - or anything throwable she can get her hands on - will be flying towards the roach at the speed of light.

Kyran 10/10 - Doesn't mind and doesn't care. Is more annoyed at his twin's (Masen) breakdown about the roach than bothered by the bug itself. Will ignore it and let someone else go through the trouble of getting rid of the insect.

Leora 9/10 - Has a mini heart attack upon noticing a roach in the vicinities. Collects herself quickly though, and instantly burns/disintegrates it with her magic. If she's feeling especially petty, she might pick it up with a spell and place it in Masen's room just to watch the chaos unfold later on.

Florynce 8?/10 - Befriends it. Due to her powers, she might actually be able to communicate with it, and if she has the time, might engage in some kind of conversation with the insect. (It wouldn't last though, as her pet raven would be overjoyed at the free snack walking around on the floor, and so the bird would just swoop down and eat it.)
