I'll take this over the Widow/Hulk romance the MCU was doing any day.

@Bounce

Yeah. Bucky x Natasha is a romance that Marvel goes back into comics every now and then. For a moment, they considered it to be THE relationship for them. His first solo run with her is like one of my favorite winter soldier runs.

Question for the group. As i make my Winter Soldier Sheet and storyboard, I was going to keep the Natasha Romanov romance, so I was wondering if using Black Widow would be too much since she is a big player in Marvel nowadays? I also could go another route with Quake, a side character who for awhile was Bucky's right hand.

Kimetsu no Yaiba AU: Temen-ni-Guru (Arc 2)

Within the Onsen was a lovely bar that served many patron, selling only the finest of sake and other liquors. The Rumble Hashira enjoyed the establishment quite often, having visited many a times, giving him all the knowledge of what drink was worth his money. An alcoholic? No. A connoisseur? Well those would be the words he would choose to use. Instead of sitting at the bar itself or a table, he preferred one of the special areas that represented the past and culture of Japan. He was kneeled, sitting on his legs, in-front of a small wooden table. A bottle sake sat before him next to a rice ball with a ginger sauce in a small bowl for him to dip his rice ball in. The cup was placed in his right hand with his left underneath, his palm supporting the cup as he drank from it. A calm washed over his body as he took a sip, taking a deep breath after he swallowed.

"It feels nice to relax after training."

Kousai was glad to relax. Lately life had been so rough with the constant demon attacks, jobs that he's had to do for the Yakuza, and he really needed a break from everything. His eyes scanned the room as he watched all the patrons. The owner did a good job of running the Onsen, Kousai having met them a few times, enjoying their company. He did plan to save just enough sake for Himari as that girl would probably strangle him if she knew he had drank all his sake without her. Right now he felt like nothing could break the peace he felt.

Suddenly he felt it, the sheer bloodlust hitting him like a brick wall, his mind instantly identifying what he felt, it was a bloodlust that he had felt before. "Guen." Kousai spoke underneath his voice, lightly putting his sake cup down. He stood up and stormed over to the source, ignoring the sign that read, "Women's bath" as he didn't care if it meant stopping a potential fight. Pushing past anyone in his way, he entered the spring, his eyes catching the sight of Guen choking Miyuki with her towel, her words traveling through his ears.

"Or you can fight me if you so like." Kousai said sternly, both hands on his katana, daring Guen to continue her acts of aggression.

Look, Cay'an seeming to be more of a predator than intended would be a lot worse if you hadn't decided to come back.

I was thinking the best bet for a second choice would be Wally West if he charged in, being able to play off his loneliness to get him to help her. The more palatable option would have been Eel O'Brian, though I think he would have seen through her easily.

But of course, both of those characters aren't even part of the event. And Arthur was straight up too young and too well-connected for her to want to deal with. Which would leave Firestorm and Captain Marvel, both of whom are far younger than they look in their hero forms. Though to give her a little bit of credit, she wouldn't have used sex as part of her toolset once she realized that they were in their teen years.

@Cyrania

She doesn't want to seduce the flaming skeleton? Feeling like an outcast here.

Damn it man that was my next idea.

@Sep

That...was also my next idea.

Or, I can't remember from the sheet but if that's the route went just have Lois be already older. Or some McBluffin that Kryptonians mature faster when exposed to element plot.

On an unrelated note I'd like to announce my interest in another character before posting a sheet:

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's...

Superman Hyperion.

@Sep

Holy hell. That's like the first character I thought of. lol. Wraith can attest to that. Asked him bout a connection.

Worlds Collide: A Merged Universe Superhero Roleplay

@Taka I will say, if you're having trouble with a second character, maybe immediately jumping into a second character isn't the best idea. I have several idea's for a second character (At this point, i think Red Tornado is probably going to be my second, most likely because i don't think anyone else has any idea's for her) but I think it's best to get a few posts in before actually seriously attempting to take on a second. I find that, after a number of posts and once you have the idea of how the character thinks, feels and reacts, eventually, interactions just write themselves.

I just think you'll have an easier time of it by getting the ball rolling on one, then using that inertia to get the second one going, rather than trying to launch 2 at the same time. Who knows, in getting Ghost Rider moving, you may find a story that actually fits a lot better.

@mattmanganon

Its not that I can't write for two characters. I have before. Its that I couldn't create logical pathways for the ideas I wanted with Black Panther. Trying to create stories that fit the mold like Static Shock, Luke Cage, and to an extent the X-Men is a feat smarter than I. Lol. Before presenting something lackluster, I chose to just bow out of the character for someone else to give it a run. With Winter Soldier, I have ideas and I know how I want to do them. I think I have better basis than with T'Challa. I will be taking my time with Winter Soldier before I publish him. Definitely won't be this weekend.

No apologies necessary, I’ve done the same before! Feel free to submit another application for Winter Soldier when you’ve got a solid foundation for it.

@Half Pint

Thank you. I will work on ideas in the meantime.

Worlds Collide: A Merged Universe Superhero Roleplay

@Bounce @Half Pint My apologies but, I think I'm going to drop Black Panther. I just realize that I don't have anything long term to present for him. I had ideas but, I can't fully flesh them out and I'm not comfortable attempting to run T'Challa without putting my best foot forward. Though I have spoken to Hound about making a sheet for the Winter Soldier. Bucky is my favorite character in comics period and I have so many ideas that I can present for him. He's been a character I've always wanted to play for one of these games. I'd feel comfortable playing Bucky and can bring my A game.

@mickilennial@Lord Wraith my apologies. Ill edit it once im home.

<Snipped quote by Lord Wraith>

Yeah, purple is a bit hard to read, but I'm honestly used to it. Besides that I liked your first post @Taka and the contract between Ralph and Robbie with the later prioritizing others over revenge. Shows his inner strength and why he's the one behind the wheel.

@King Kindred

Thank you. I hope conveyed that Ralph is definitely struggling. He has majority control over them as the rider but Robbie is the heart. Im excited to eventually show the other riders and what their bonds look like.
