Throw a dog a bone.

[STEPHEN QUINN]

As most of you are aware I'm the new face around the forum, but I'm definitely not new to RPing so you don't have to worry about me turning out to be a total noob. I have Stephen here who is in need of a life.

He's 27 years old, works for a software designing company called INQUIRA, in Tron City he makes great business by supplying Castor with discs and identities (yes, the RL person and I spoke about this and they agreed to it).

Friends:
He's new to L.A. and can definitely use some human/user friends, but he won't have a lot seeing as he's a little timid at times and tends to come off as a stuck up snob to others because of his shyness (though he sure doesn't look like the shy type). Most of his friends will probably be into the game, because that's become his newest obsession.

Enemies:
At the current moment he has no enemies, but what's life without enemies? Feel free to volunteer for this spot, Stephen is quite the fire cracker when he's angered/annoyed/agitated/etc.

Lovers:
Stephen has yet to set his eyes on "the one", and now that he's moved out to a new city those chances are pretty slim at the moment since he is new. If any of you lovely ladies (users of course) are interested in him be very persistent; he's one tough cookie.


So, what do you say? Wanna give it a try?

I'll be the first to jump on the bandwagon!

Stephen & Ben

Like Stephen, Ben can be a bit reserved, especially when first meeting people. I feel like they'd be the two guys doing the awkward-wall-lean at the back of a club while everyone else is shakin' what they got and maybe fall into conversation about their security programs. Maybe they develop into frienemies because they work for different companies, or Ben becomes aware of Stephen's business deal with Castor? I think there's a potential to go either way. Not too sure what you'd prefer, though. I'm down with just about anything. :3

Yay! -hands a taco- -likes giving tacos cause they're amazing- -should probably stop typing like this now-


STEPHEN & BEN

I can totally see them being those guys at the club, though it would take quite a bit of convincing on Ben's part to get Stephen to consider even stepping a hair into such a place; perhaps bribing him with some new software tips or his weakness in drinks which would be his absolute favorite; "swamp beer" (he's very unusual about his drinks). The frenemies part would be perfect, especially how Ben ALMOST discovers his business proposition's with Castor; It'll give Stephen a very good reason to create his security program, Youan.

Though, now there's the puzzling question of how they actually met. What if Stephen applied for a position at the company Ben works for and he first meets him there. They chat momentarily about how great the place is, but Stephen is soon turned down to work for the company Ben works for. After that Stephen gets a job at INQUIRA and when he starts discovering Tron City and the rest of the system they could bump into each other at End of the Line club. Ben can notice Stephen having an "interest' in clubbing and invite him to go out and "pick up chicks" or something in L.A. and seeing as Stephen isn't that type of guy Ben can get suspicious as to why he declines going out a lot, but doesn't question, and that's when Ben can start (idk) investigating? Especially because Stephen would more than likely decline to go back into the system and hang out at End of the Line club instead of going out with Ben....? How does that sound for a start?

I will definitely let you know if anything else comes to mind to develop things further.
