how do ur ocs celebrate their birthdays!?

Ida

Somewhat. She's older, and if her kids want to take her out, she'd be down. She'd be just as happy to have a normal night in too.

Ale

not really, sure they're always down to party, but they don't need the excuse. also birthdays tend to bring up complicated feelings the'd rather ignore

Madea

Well, she does not have a 'birthday' in the classical sense-- seeing as she was dropped off on the doorstep of a church when she was a baby. She doesn't really have a gotcha day either... as she was never adopted. when she was a kid, there probably was a designated day for her 'birthday' for paperwork reasons, and there was probably a small celebration for her and her "twin sister," but it was never anything extravagant or even guaranteed.

Now she's an adult, she wants to be perceived as little as possible so, with the horrifying ordeal of being known is a key point to bday celebrations, she'd rather not. she's happy to celebrate other people's though

Tyblin

yes!! she loves her birthday and having the excuse to hang out with the people she loves! She loves the cake! She loves the celebration! she'd def if she was in a modern setting go bowling every year even after the age that its generally seen as 'appropriate'. her mom makes sure to make it a big deal every year because she wasn't supposed to make it past her first year. like its not just a birday its like a birth week in her household

Rossien

Literally does not care in the slightest. Birthdays were not a big deal in Ficoria, and he's like 400 years old now, so it's just a day that ends in 'Y' for him. Also, it's not like he has anyone to celebrate with anymore. he's not beat up about it either it's just a day and sometimes people might say something, but beyond that, there is nothing different

Rupert

He enjoys a good bday shindig! Now he's an adult he'll go out and have a nice dinner and/or a few drinks. He's not a partier, but he won't turn down a good time if offered. tbh his idea bday is just a nice picnic and a bottle of wine, but he's not picky.

Hunt

not super big into b-days, enjoys a bit of debauchery but is a bit too serious to do anything grand. always gets SUPER flustered if/when Roosa does anything for her but that's about it.

Yay, unsolicited advice time! Or, not really advice, more like miscellaneous tips and tricks, because if there's one thing eight years of martial arts has equipped me to write, it's fight scenes.

.

Fun things to add to a fight scene (hand to hand edition)

It's not uncommon for two people to kick at the same time and smack their shins together, or for one person to block a kick with their shin. This is called a shin lock and it HURTS like a BITCH. You can be limping for the rest of the fight if you do it hard enough.

If your character is mean and short, they can block kicks with the tip of their elbow, which hurts the other guy a lot more and them a lot less

Headbutts are a quick way to give yourself a concussion

If a character has had many concussions, they will be easier to knock out. This is called glass jaw.

Bad places to get hit that aren't the groin: solar plexus, liver, back of the head, side of the thigh (a lot of leg kicks aim for this because if it connects, your opponent will be limping)

Give your character a fighting style. It helps establish their personality and physicality. Are they a grappler? Do they prefer kicks or fighting up close? How well trained are they?

Your scalp bleeds a lot and this can get in your eyes, blinding you

If you get hit in the nose, your eyes water

Adrenaline's a hell of a drug. Most of the time, you're not going to know how badly you've been hurt until after the fact

Even with good technique, it's really easy to break toes and fingers

Blocking hurts, dodging doesn't

.

Just thought these might be useful! If you want a more comprehensive guide or a weapons edition, feel free to ask. If you want, write how your characters fight in the comments!

Have a bitchin day <3
