The Midnight Train to Nowhere

It used to be Wyl's otp table in Lies where I offered Skye, Kalin and possibly Errion, but we re-converted it to the brand-new Homo table 83

Thanks Rex~! <3333
Also I initially thought everyone's comments were frowny, but that's because I'm always nervous OTL. Meeeh.

I should probably mention that Lute and Aria used to be partners. In work. Kinda.

Edit: Okay fine they're besties. Does anyone have an issue with this? Speak now or forever hold your peace

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

YES HOMO

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

Ah, so the biggest issue here is the Personality part? I don't think that any of you have something against the other parts of the CS (underworld part duly noted, Tae 8D) so it's the only thing I need to change. Everything else will remain as it is? Please tell me if you guys have more comments.

Thank you all. 8D

kinda revised CS

Name: Lute Aiseirigh

Age: Early twenties.

Rank: G

Class: Virtuoso

Weapon: Sword and/or the occasional sound wave.
Appearance: Lute is a tall and lithe young man with features that make him look like an aristocrat. His face is attractive, always lit up in a kind smile, and he has what many would describe as a gentle demeanor. He prefers wearing practical and comfortable clothes and takes care to make sure that his appearance is neat.

Personality: A lot of people wonder why he would rather remain in the background when he looked nothing like a wallflower. The truth is, Lute gets panicky when strangers approach him and initiate conversation, vice versa. If it isn’t bad enough that he can’t hold a decent conversation at risk of experiencing a nervous breakdown, Lute just doesn’t understand his own thinking most of the time, impressionable dude that he is.
However, Lute’s lack of self-analyzation is balanced by his in-depth understanding of the world around him. He turns serious whenever he comments about the nuances in society, and the jumpy way he usually approaches social interaction is replaced by a cynical, world-weary temperament. Due to his upbringing, he is a teleologist and a utilitarian, and is fully capable of making decisions that others can perceive as overly harsh or inhumane if the situation calls for it. Yet at the same time, he thinks positively of the people he meets unless they do something to change his views of them.

Fighting style: Yes well, you see, Lute has a friend. As one who has bonded with a spirit of sound, Lute can stay the whispers of both human and animal. He can cause absolute silence or piercing noise in an environment. His familiar, who has yet to show herself, often delivers snide comments in a cold, queenly voice which is the antithesis to Lute’s warm tone.
His power is not entirely the creation of new sound to replace the old, but the transformation of what is to become another. Think of him as a walking DJ booth or a sound transformer-slash-amplifier. It has limits, though—Lute’s assaults work extraordinarily well in closed spaces, but he can’t project a sound wave more than a few meters from his body in open space. The impact also lessens the further it is from Lute’s personage, with the exception of a concentrated attack. He switches from resonance to melee attack frequently, and he is skilled with the sword as much as he is with sound-based assaults. Aforementioned abilities can be used in echolocation too, which makes him suitable for reconnaissance or other missions involving stealth.
Lute uses this power purely as a mood maker, or as means to entertain himself when he’s bored.

Background: All anyone ever needs to know is that he and his sister grew up poorer and filthier “than the scum stuck to the bottom of my sole, boy!” as was shouted by a nobleman he had encountered during his preadolescent years.

Others:
- Lute’s greatest treasure in life is his younger sister Ruana, who is basically a hotter genderbent (and x1000tougher) version of her brother.
- Has a few friends in low places.
-Familiar's name is Delilah, or Dellie for short.

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

Sorry. I'll make the changes once everybody comments.

- The fuse thing. He's just kind of a ticking time bomb when you get to talk to him, like at first he's fine but there will this certain point in the conversation that Lute will panic and give you a vague or idiotic reply/start to ramble. He gets nervous even faster when that person asks him something. Will remove this part of the CS/replace it with something.

Will pm writing sample from Midnight Train posts ASAP.

Anything else? ^u^

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

Just got back from enrollment. Going there earlier than everybody is absolutely a great idea~

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

Hopefully it doesn't escalate to that, but eheheheh 8DDD

This is the part I so dread. Q A Q

Have a look, everyone~

CS

Appearance: Lute is a tall and lithe young man with features that are almost certainly given to those of aristocratic birth. His face is attractive, if not always lit up in a kind smile, and he has what many would describe as a gentle mien. He always wears practical and comfortable clothes, and takes care to make sure that his appearance is neat.



Name: Lute Aiseirigh

Age: Early twenties.

Rank: G

Class: Virtuoso

Weapon: His sword and the occasional sound wave.

Personality: With that face, you’d wonder (along with so many others) why he prefers staying in the background instead of charming ladies or whatnot, but talk to him and you’ll clearly sense that the poor boy’s social skills, or lack thereof, is akin to a fuse which burns out the more a person talks to him in a single setting (it crumbles away faster when they ask him something, yey!) although said fuse tends to be nonexistent when it comes to companions and close friends. If it isn’t bad enough that he can’t hold a decent conversation at risk of experiencing a nervous breakdown, Lute also possesses middling intrapersonal understanding, which may be due to the innumerable times he had put aside moments for self-contemplation in favor of financially productive pursuits.
However, Lute’s lack of intrapersonal understanding is balanced by his uncanny understanding of the world around him, his forte being poverty-stricken slums and their denizens. His mellow behavior takes on a touch of austerity when it comes to such members of society, and the hesitant way he approaches social interaction is replaced by a cynical, world-weary temperament should there be a need to analyze or observe such matters. Due to his upbringing, he is a teleologist and a utilitarian, and is more than capable of making decisions that others can perceive as overly harsh or inhumane if need be. Overall, he holds a genuine liking for people and views them positively unless they should prove unworthy of such regard.

Fighting style: Yes well, you see, Lute has a friend. As one who has bonded with a spirit of sound, Lute can stay the whispers of both human and animal. He can cause absolute silence or piercing noise in an environment but the former is what he usually enforces during his missions. His familiar often delivers snide comments in a cold, queenly voice which is the antithesis to Lute’s warm tone.

It has limits, though—Lute’s assaults work extraordinarily well in closed spaces, but he can’t project a sound wave more than a few meters from his body in open space.

- Lots of underworld connections. *wink*
