Paul Rudd!

from here

send me a FC and i’ll make up a character on the spot.

All jokes about Paul Rudd's eternal youth aside, I am half tempted to go with a Vampire or some other supernatural muse, but I'll resist the temptation for now (though my Fae verse could use some fresh blood, pun intended).

My Nosferatu instincts notwithstanding, it is hard to imagine Paul as anything but a goofy, affable, character. Having said that, a part of me is shouting for something Gruff and broody, or at least fairly serious like Undercover Agent (Gwyn could use the company), or grizzled PI (Rae says Hi, also Why? [yes, she does still love rhymes]), or something else with some real stakes on the line.

... but most of me is demanding Single/Stay-at-home Dad! And please not, when I say Stay-at-home Dad, I do not mean 'Under-house-arrest Dad', so no, not a Scott Lang retread. No superpowers, no criminal record (well, maybe a note or two from his youth, but nothing significant).

Anyway, here's Benjamin Brown:

I'm getting very strong small town vibes, either married his high-school sweetheart, or they tried the long distance thing when one or both of them headed off to college and just drifted apart. In the case of the latter, I see him more likely to be a Widower than divorced, but only just (52/48)

00-Prime Universe’s Mel Profile

Here’s the profile for the Mel from the Prime universe, a.k.a. myself, Mod Mel! Most versions of me will share at least a few traits. When other Mels share said traits, I will simply say that it’s pretty much the same as 00-Mel and describe the few differences if applicable.

General infos

Full Name: Mélanie Lacroix

Nickname: Mel

Nationality: French-Canadian

Languages: French and English, but know a few words of many other languages including Spanish, Japanese and Latin.

Birthday: April 12

Sex: Female

Gender: Genderqueer, somewhere between non-binary woman and gender-nonconforming. Basically, I’m fine with the genitalia I was born with, but I present more as agender/gender-neutral, sometime more masculine and other times a bit more feminine, but I don’t really like how restrictive binary genders tend to be and I just want to be myself, you know?

Pronouns: They/them, She/her, no real preference of one over the other

Sexual/romantic orientation: Usually go with Queer out of simplicity, but mostly identify as demisexual and demi-panromantic. Basically, I need to first feel romantic attraction before feeling sexual attraction, and I need to first feel an emotional connection or bond before developing a romantic attraction, but developing an emotional bond with someone doesn’t guarantee attraction either. Fictional characters work somewhat differently, and I can get attracted on the basis of how interesting I find them.

Physical Appearance

Height: Somewhere between 5’0” and 5’1”

Weight: Around 180lb

Body shape: Average shoulders, not really large nor narrow. Average/large chest. Chubby face, belly, arms and legs. Somewhat narrow hips and small butt. Thick thighs.

Skin: rather pale, but mark and blush really easily, lot’s of beauty marks and freckles, especially on the arms. Faint scar across the throat from surgery, but it’s barely noticeable. Somewhat hairy due to my reluctance to shave or use other hair removal techniques. I basically just trim a few places once in a while. Ears pierced but the holes closed because I never wear earrings. No tattoos… yet.

Hair: Brown, look somewhat copper-ish in the light, often dyed in purple/burgundy colors, kept in a short bob or pixie haircut.

Eyes: Naturally half-lidded, somewhat almond-shaped, dark brown, like the color of black coffee or cola.

Clothing style: Glasses, needed because I’m near-sighted but I prefer glasses to contacts, they are rectangular with half-frames, dark pink with a few light pink touches. Clothes are mostly comfortable, mostly pants or shorts with t-shirt. Pants are usually neutral color, and t-shirts are pretty colorful. Also, quite a few geeky t-shirts with video game stuff on them.

Personality

Qualities: Polite, open-minded, kind without being a pushover, independent, caring, smart, helpful, calm

Defaults: Somewhat prideful, tendency to overwork myself, too hard on myself, a tiny bit of a show-off, bottle up emotions, Stepford smiler tendencies

Abilities: Fast reading, make people feel calm and at ease, good memory, good sense of details

Hobbies: Reading. Writing. Cooking and baking. Watching TV. Shows, movies, cartoons, animes and Youtube videos. Playing video games, card games and board games.

Favorite colors: All shades of purple, but also pink, green, black and grey.

Favorite animals: All the felines, turtles, snakes, bats and skunks.

Fears: Slight fear of spiders and bugs that bite/sting, but that’s because I’m slightly allergic to most of them. And that’s pretty much it, really.

Life

Status: Happily single

Current living place: A small city in the province of Québec, Canada.

Family: Mom and step-dad: I’m not close to them, but I see them once in a while. Maternal grandparents: I see grandma once in a while, but I very rarely see grandpa. Half-brother: Same mom but different dads, I’m rather close to him and we see each other twice a month or so. Dad and step-mom: I’m very close to them, but I don’t see them that often because they live in Montréal and it’s a 6-7 hours drive from where I am. Step-brother: Step-mom’s son from a previous marriage, I’m not really close to him but I get along with him well enough. Aunts and Uncles: I see most of them once in a while, most of them are always ready to give me a hand if I need a ride or something.

Friends: I have one person I truly consider a good friend and it’s my BFF since we were around 15/16. We used to date, but we eventually understood that our love for each other was platonic only, akin to siblings. I have other friends that I’m not as close with, like my BFF’s boyfriend and friends, and the peoples from the LGBTQ+ discussion group I go to twice a month.

Pets: I have an adorable orange tabby cat. It’s a female and while technically, her name is Pupuce, I call her Baby most of the time.

Transportation: I don’t have a car. I don’t even have a permit. I usually walk or get rides from an uncle or my BFF, I sometime take the bus and I take a taxi if I have no other alternatives. There’s no Ubers yet where I live.

Home: I live alone with my cat in an apartment with a kitchen, living room, bedroom and bathroom.

Education: I have what is the equivalent of a high school diploma here.

Work: I work part-time in a discount department store. I worked at a local Mc Donald for almost 6 years and did a few other odd jobs here and there.

Medical history: I have Crohn’s disease and I’m a thyroid cancer survivor. As such, I have rather low levels of energy and I get tired easily.

Marking moments: My parents divorced when I was around 1-2 years old, I don’t really remember it though. When I was 6 years old, during Summer, I lost my Kindergarten best friend, her father killed her and then killed himself. When I was around 15 years old, I went to live with my father and that was honestly one of the best decision in my live, I lived with my mother until that point and it wasn’t the best life… I moved in my first apartment when I was 20. I was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease when I was around 20-21 and with thyroid cancer when I was around 25-26.
