analoz:

the brunette had been stood in the hallway for quite a while so it surprised her that the newbie failed to notice her until now. it wasn’t like she was that small either but all annoyance was gone when there was a mention of a drink. she pulled out the lollipop she had been sucking on before stepping inside. “just- stop talking,” she rolled her eyes lightly before skipping over. “you talk too much, no offence.”

The corner’s of Victor’s lips twitched at the girl’s words, threatening to break out into a full fledged grin. She had spunk, there was no doubt about that, and he undeniably intrigued by her. Nodding his head, an amused smirk  was plastered onto his lips as he went through the actions of pouring her a drink,  without saying so much as a word, never taking his eyes off of her as he did so. Once the drink was poured, her handed her the glass, still not saying anything, before he grinned and raised his own glass as though in toast, before taking a drink from it again.

“You can just put that in the second bedroom. Thank you.” Victor said to the movers who were carrying his heavy oak bookshelf; the very last of his belongings to be taken off of the moving truck. Sighing heavily as he glanced around his living room full of boxes, most of which, if his recent past was any indication, would never even be fully unpacked before he moved again, he moved to his liquor cabinet and unscrewed the lid off of one of his best whiskeys, pouring some into a crystal glass.  He raised the glass to lips to take a drink, right as he noticed someone standing outside of his open door and peaking in curiously. Meeting their gaze, a small smirked etched it’s way onto the corners of his lips. “Would you like a drink? He asked, lifting his glass in indication. “I mean, I’d like to say I’m offering in the interest of hospitality, and getting to know my neighbors, but in truth, it’s more because having company gives me an excuse to put off unpacking for a little bit longer” He added with a chuckle

Hello all! As a lot of you probably remember from my post in the talks tag, I’m Matt! I live in the EST timezone and am 22 years young. I could go on and tell you a bunch more about myself, but honestly, you’ll learn more about me as time goes on, and I know you guys are more interested in hearing about Victor than you are hearing about me; and I can’t blame you, because he’s a pretty intriguing fellow.

Victor was inspired by the lyrics and music video for the song Thief by Ansel Elgort (Who is also his face claim) Ansel stated around the time the song came out that the song and video are from the perspective of not himself, but a character. I have been massively intrigued by that character ever since, and I found myself wanting to explore the depths of him myself. Ansel never really gave any details as to who this character was, so it was largely a matter of my own interpreting the lyrics, and the events of the video. The lyric that most struck me was

“Taking love just to spill it on the parchment, next page and I’m out again”

Upon pondering on this lyric in relation with everything else surrounding it, that’s when the idea for Victor began to form.

Now that I’ve given you what was probably a largely unnecessary background story, it’s time to explain exactly what Victor is all about:

 Victor is a best selling author who writes under a pen name. He was 19 when his first novel was published, and it had huge success critically and commercially. His entire inspiration for the novel came about after his high school sweetheart and fiancee confessed to having had been in love with someone else throughout their entire relationship, and left him to be with that someone else who finally wanted her too. The pain of this experience lit a fire under Victor’s muse, and he dropped out college, quit his job, and became entirely obsessed with writing. He finished the first draft novel after three weeks, and it went on to have an immense amount of success.

After the success of the first novel, something he was extremely proud to have created, writing started to become a full blown obsession for him. His personal relationships with people began to fail, largely unintentionally at first, but as he found that the pain was a fuel for his muse, he began to start sabotaging those relationships on purpose.

Now he’s at a point where he actually seeks people out, builds a relationship with them, only to destroy it in order to inspire himself. He’s aware of how awful this is, but he can’t bring himself to stop, because he has this unhealthy obsession with his writing. He justifies it in his mind as being the sacrifice necessary to create fantastic art. He’s extremely charming, and definitely alluring, and has little problem drawing people in. There’s really no limit to what kind of relationships he’ll destroy in the name of his cause; friendships, romances, familial bonds, they’re all on the table. (In fact, he actually has a twin brother, and they’re estranged because of this very reason) So yeah, he’s pretty dark, pretty depressing, and pretty messed up, but he’s definitely not someone you would think to be those things at first glance. Thus, why I chose New Orleans as his city. New Orleans, at first glance, is a hugely charming place, and it is definitely alluring, but if you venture away from the tourist heavy parts of the city...well...it can be pretty dangerous.

I guess given all of that, he’s not exactly the kind of character you wanna throw your babies at, because chances are, he’s going to hurt them. But, that said, I would love some plots for him for those who are brave enough to put their muse through this kind of thing. Of course it’s my hope that he’ll meet someone who will mean so much to him that he’ll actually struggle with whether he can bring himself to destroy his relationship with them, but I suppose we’ll see what happens! Anyways, I will be writing an actual bio for Victor at some point that goes into a bit more detail about all of this. In the meantime, if you have any questions feel free to shoot them my way, and please, bring me plots!

I'm excited for plotting to start, but I'm gonna be sleeping when it happens. (I work overnights and I just got home) But I'll be on to do some plotting when. I wake up, and in the meantime, by all means drop into my IMs if you wanna plot anything!

Also as an added note, this song/video is where the idea for the character of Victor came from. Like 1000%.

mun name: Matt (It’s not my real name, but it is my middle name) mun timezone: I live in London Ontario Canada, which is in the EST timezone mun’s favourite city: This is hard! I love New York (I went for a week a year ago and it was amazing!) But I also really love Vancouver (I went a couple years ago and was there for a month) character’s name: Victor Watts character’s city: New Orleans. I picked it because I had already been inspired to make the character before I applied, and I felt New Orleans was the perfect fit. It’s a city that has a lot of charm and beauty to it, but is actually a pretty dangerous place. anything else: Honestly, I am very excited to be here and I can’t wait to bring Victor to life. He’s very different from any other character I’ve ever played. Extremely tragically flawed and leads a pretty dark and depressing life. That excites me because I usually play the good, pure hearted characters. I’m looking forward to getting to rp with all of you!
