OOC INTRO: JULY

welcome to in the night.

We're so glad to have you! Feel free to use this post to introduce yourselves to the rest of the game. If you've already posted an OOC intro in this comm, feel free to repost/link it here if you like! We'll be doing a mod-posted OOC intro like this for future app rounds, as well.

If you haven't heard back about your app yet, don't worry! We're hard at work processing the remaining apps, and we'll have all acceptance notices/questions out by tomorrow morning. We also won't be posting the IC intro log until all acceptance notices have been sent out. For more info on all this, you can check out our mod plurk about it.

Not sure where to begin? Letting other players know your name, pronouns, who you play, and how to contact you is a good starting point. And, of course, shitposting with gifs and memes is always good too. Welcome aboard!

hello hello everyone! i'm z, and i bring with me number five from the umbrella academy! for the canon-familiar, he'll be coming in from 1x07, "the day that was," after collapsing from his injuries, whoops. everything's fine.

five is a child superhero turned sole apocalypse survivor turned time travel assassin who jumped ship to try to prevent the apocalypse. however when he tried to time travel home, he accidentally physically de-aged himself to 13...he's 58, so that's sure a thing he's dealing with. he's a foul-mouthed prickly bastard, but he cares underneath it all. somewhere deep underneath it all. i'm so sorry for him, y'all.

please let me know if you'd like to keep our tdm threads game canon! i'm 100% down. and feel free to add me at

tintagil if you'd like.

I had a blast with our tdm thread. You game for keeping it? I’d also love more cr

i did too!! i'd absolutely like to keep it game canon HAHA can't wait to write more of them being shits to each other

lmao i can't wait either. they're so snarky to one another. it'll be a good time haha

i'm here because i googled your guy and found this

CHOKES OUT A LAUGH

YEP

welcome to the umbrella academy

Oh noooooo I'm still working my way through this show! I left off after episode 6! Pretty sure I'm spoiled for most significant things though, so vOv

OH GOSH!!!!! i can definitely try not to spoil you for anything in episode 7!! luckily not a whole lot happens for him, besides one particular plot reveal, in that episode before his canon point

also can i say i'm so glad you know TUA because i for sure want that boromir cr but i did not want to inflict five on him without like. making sure you knew what you were in for HAHA

OH WELL don't fret, I'm sure I'll finish it sooner or later! And yes, I'm aware of Five's whole....deal. His asshole deal.

HELLO, I am canonblind but idk Arya has some experience with someone that looks like a kid but is really super old. Or in her brother's case, like. A tree or something.

So they should meet, js.

oh man DOES SHE REALLY

shockingly i'm actually GOT canon-blind aside from stuff that's deeply permeated pop culture but!!! i would definitely love for them to meet 👀

also isn't she like. also an ex-assassin or something. bc that's definitely something to potentially commiserate over one day

HI Z, good to see you got in game! I'm hype to see how Five is going to react in this setting and well from what I saw in the TDM it was gold.

i didn't tag u on the tdm but five is 👌 and most of vanitas' social interaction were with crochety old men (or 1 man in 13 bodies its complicated) so like points to eyes points to u

oh my god

cr i never knew i needed??????? i'm so ready for this

I was super late to the TUA train and have regretted it ever since because FIVE IS A BLESSED PRINCE OF GREMLINS and I've never had a thread with one that wasn't gold in some shape or form.

I'm gunning for some snarky grandpa in my life, your Five is amazing from what I saw of him on the TDM, I fully expect that tradition to continue!!!

oh my gosh THANK YOu i hope not to disappoint!! i am super excited to throw him at m.k. and see how they hit it off! i super enjoyed stalking him on the tdm 👀

Despite the fact that I never got a chance to tag Five on the TDM, I am super hype about him being in ITN! It's... vaguely possible??? He won't get annoyed at Scarlett because she won't gaf that he looks 13. Granted she encourages murder with other 'teenagers' so... ya know. There's that. She's also been living that apocalypse life for a few years. Only hers includes Vampires.

HAHA she sounds interesting!! i definitely can't wait to see how they hit it off
