So guys you know how every once in awhile we do those spam threads of like... every character account we own.
Can we do that for OCs this time? Except having accounts for them is optional and talking about them and their stories are preferred.
I am on such a kick of my own lately and I want to smell the originality emanating from dis hurr comm.

If you are confused about what I'm talking about see this beauteous thing.
Alright? Is this alright?
Then let's do eet.

HI THIS IS SAM I AND DON'T HAVE MANY OCS.........

HI THIS IS VINCENT

[beeninyourshoes.livejournal.com]

Vincent is from this crappy science fiction story that I'm kind of sort of writing. Put it in short, when you die, your Self is placed in a naked body in a pod system a la the Matrix in a new dimension or whatever, and there are a pair of people in suits who come to greet you.

Vincent is one of these people in suits. He is the smartass of the partnership he has with tight-ass, bun wearing, no-nonsense Cynthia, and he is flamboyant and cocky and talks with a lot of motion in his hands like some kind of Italian or Jewish wannabe. He's theatrical and dramatic both verbally and physically, and thinks he is the greatest guy ever and is so full of himself. He's the kind of guy whose mannerisms make you question his sexuality, but he's definitely interested in women and likes to play-flirt with Cynthia, who is a lesbian. He's well aware that she's a lesbian but again, he just like fucking around with her and annoying her because he can. The two of them have comical banter.

He says "m'dear" a lot, and has some kind of pretentious accent that's not really any accent except the accent of someone who thinks too much of himself.

tl;dr, he's some science fiction guy in a suit who's a pretentious, self-loving, smug asshole.

I also posted a snippet of the crappy story he's based off of...... (http://beeninyourshoes.livejournal.com/582.html)

aka SAM LIKES HER MINOR CHARACTERS MORE THAN HER MAJOR ONE.

HI THIS IS EILEEN

[humthistune.livejournal.com]

And yes her name was inspired by Come On Eileen.

Basically, she's ~~a teenaged girl trying to find her way~~ She's quiet, wears eyecatching clothes, but still gets lost in the crowd despite her clothing choice. Makes no sense, I know, but she is basically a bright wallflower with a small voice! People only know her because her name reminds them of that song!

She's pretty boring, tbh. And she's meant to be dull.

In short, she was made after a writing warm-up for my creative writing class where we had to write about a person.

"She was the kind of person who everyone knew by name. She wasn’t spectacular, wasn’t anything out of the ordinary...but she was the sort of person who had that name. The kind of name that would come up in conversation and suddenly you’re thinking of “poor old Johnnie Ray” for no particular reason other than the fact that her name was Eileen and...come on everyone knows the song.

Nobody knew the girl, though. She blended into crowds like it was nobody’s business..." etc. etc.
