GREY.kinesia / window boy. How else does anyone meet their girlfriend's adopted human puppy other than not being aware of said adopted human puppy until he comes climbing to her window while one is having relations of an intimate nature with one's girlfriend? That's how it happens for everyone, right? Okay, so maybe it wasn't the best initial meeting, stumbling out in April's jacket and all, but Grey proved that free food is a great motivator for just about everybody and it turned out all right in the end. He's even leaving boiled eggs at the window! No idea who trained him in that one, but whatever. Boiled eggs are great. And who better to keep a secret than the boy who cannot actually speak? Grey came from some awfully cramped world, according to everything Will's heard about it. Time to go out on the ocean, all the space anyone could ever want! ♫ ♫ ♫ |

LOKI.selfimage / zan. One of the Wonder Twins when it comes to stockpiling information about this place, more evidence that gods are pains in the ass. But as long as there is no teacup shattering going on, it's tolerable. Bring on the goat booze! ♫ |

SKYE.hackitude / technology goddess. the last person in this world anyone should fuck with. the ice cream is all yours. Everyone else is all "SIX AVENGERS???? LOL OMG" and Will zooms in on the mention of stray dogs. Go. Figure. But it's not just the fact of the matter that he loves dogs, it's the fact of the matter that the post was going in a few directions that a) he knew nothing about b) seemed to be distressing and c) who doesn't enjoy a good normal distraction around then? A distraction from an old fart who doesn't hate people and talks about super old fart music and references memes that are totally out of fashion and Skye just rolls right with it. And then, what's this, talk of no family, talk of getting a better feel on this whole observation thing, sure, sure, why not? Why not at all. Why not set up a fake tutoring session wherein he's got all the answers rigged to test her abilities in one area so he can look into what materials she would need to cover the most to get her GED? Looking out for each other is part of that thing that's not friendship but maybe is but totally isn't because that's a bad word, right? And he doesn't have to outright tell anyone about the— Freddie no.She might be bubbly, seem ditzy, turn muzak to something even worse to test her powers, and maybe her choice in writing utensils could lead one to believe she dots her is with hearts, but anyone who judges her on that needs to go back to the day in class where not judging books by the cover was...covered. She needs a vacation, though. Will would fund a Skye vacation. ♫ ♫ |

KAIDAN ALENKO.kanadian / the lecturer. omg shut up If Freddie ever gets herself murdered here and Kaidan doesn't come after Will in some form or fashion, he will be offended. WELP. Shockingly, for how handsome Kaidan is, when he pulls that sad face, Will's drawn to the puppy appeal over anything else. Go figure. ♫ |

KATE BISHOP.selfequipped / jayna. One of the Wonder Twins when it comes to information about here. Kate is an impressive individual and, fortunately, broadcasts that. Unfortunately, some of her smarts got transferred to figuring out what the hell was up with the Baltimore crew in regards to Chilton and Will had to do what he could to prevent it from going any further. It's not technically lying when he's just throwing himself under the bus because of how terrible a witness he'd be! As far as he knows, she's dropped it. He hopes it stays that way. It needs to stay that way. He will make her more pies as offering. ♫ |

SASHA BLOUSE.huntergames / sandwich thief. did you know that watermelons are actually berries? thanks, kiddo. food buddy with two ears. please keep it that way. Will stood to the side when he saw great evil happening in a grocery store, and came out of it pretty unscathed. He came out of meeting Sasha, too, so maybe he'll let people slash up grocery store displays more often. But Sasha didn't seem to realize eating and running while still in the store wasn't taken to very well, and helped serve as a bigger wake up call to the fact of the matter that some of the worlds here were very different. She asks him about plenty he takes for granted and he does his best to help out where he can. The enjoyable part of that is when he ends up doing research on his own and finds out that, well, look at that, watermelons are actually a type of berry. Sasha learns a thing or two from Will and, in one way or another, Will ends up learning just as much. So when she issues an invitation to a potluck with people, he's going and he's going on his best behavior. Not to make friends, but to not be that guest who ends up reflecting poorly on the host. He doesn't think she'll screw him up for it (though she probably could)—it's just good manners, isn't it? Sasha's earned some good manners. Sasha asked if Will would stand in as her legal guardian, and he was quick to say yes. Now that Abigail Hobbs has left, Will's started to shift a bit onto Sasha. She even hunts! What could go wrong? ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ |

OSWALD CHESTERFIELD COBBLEPOT.motherflocker / the bird. former roommate. likes birds. which says something. says i got a place to drop off fish if i can't eat it all. fuck yeah ozzie. ♫ |

JONATHAN CRANE.anxiogenic / forever jung. could you crawl out of jung's asshole for like 2 seconds please. From "another psychiatrist" to coworker, Will doesn't really find too much off about the good Doctor Crane here. In fact, when faced with Miles Edgeworth's dilemma about finding a psychiatrist, he shuffled him off to Crane. The guy specializes in anxiety, and Will knows very well what Frederick Chilton specializes in. He's a fan of Jung, fine, whatever. It can't be that bad, though, can it? Might be up to something with Chilton, but Will doesn't know for certain. He has, unfortunately, been the recipient of messages Will intended for April. He was a good sport about it, and if he ever feels lonely, he can look back and see that somebody loves him. That's nice, isn't it? Will's favorite game whenever they're in the same building for work is seeing how long he can restrain himself from stopping by and being a shithead. He's basically Zeller at this point. Oops. ♫ ♫ ♫ |

MILES EDGEWORTH.takethestairs / the littlest lawyer. when did you get back? Started off a little rocky, no surprise there. But it seemed to settle well enough...until Miles got news that Yuri Petrov was, in fact, a raging lunatic. By the name of Lunatic. Will had some loyalties to Yuri, and the glorious inability to care about arguing in public spaces when he called Miles out on his particular method of announcing this to the community at large with then insufficient evidence. Even with Kay's impromptu stop to give him the details as she saw them, he remained unconvinced it was anything other than shortsighted and reckless. Which is fine enough when someone is, like, ten. Not so fine when that puts other people on the line. But at least Miles recognized it, and although their little meeting in Will's kitchen wasn't under the best of circumstances, it still feels like they've found a good, nice even spot. Miles has asked him about a variety of things, relating to the job, and even though Will's not glad that's his first association, he's glad that Miles comes to him and they can have reasonable, friendly discussions. He might never say it out loud, but he considers Miles something of a friend. Close enough that it could veer into that territory...just as easily as it could veer into another spitting match. But where's the fun if a friendship doesn't involve the ability to have heated disagreements, right? ♫ ♫( hot readings & cold shoulders.) |

HOUKA INUMUTA.databoner / the puppy. Inumuta and Will spoke before about the government, and if anyone is surprised that the government does not appreciate being hacked, that's someone Will doesn't want to talk to. Annie's friend here has a smart mouth that doesn't know when to quit, and after sticking his snout into some business at a charity event, Will decided to turn the hose on a damn yappy little pup and bought him, too. While he was right there to see it. Inumuta didn't appreciate it. He didn't seem to appreciate his birthday present much, either, going so far as to ask the Network what the hell was wrong with Will Graham. No regrets on Will's end, even if he didn't enjoy having to be an actual adult in the conversation that ensued. He might take things to extremes, as far as Will sees it, but he's worth keeping an eye on. Inumuta has totally been through worse than having to deal with Will Graham anyway. He won't believe otherwise after the Network-announced stomach-crushing despair that came from eating something a friend cooked for him... ... Will's interest has nothing to do with that. ♫ ♫ |

KEN KANEKI.enucleation / o my cannison. dudeThere was a time when Will didn't realize there were other cannibals around. Not like Titans, but legitimate cannibals. And then, oh, the file leaks happened, Ken had been publicly slaughtered, and he came back a little different than he'd been before. He also came back a criminal, and Will Graham used his Registered status and their former living situation as a way to segue himself right in Ken's life. He's yet to tell him the true reasoning behind it, and apparently Ken only eats his meat raw, so there's no sharing on that end, but. One day. One day, soon, it'll all come spilling out. Like guts. ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫( iron chef: raw vs. cooked) |

CLARK KENT.andaway / the farmboy what done learned how to read. ask me no questions and i will tell you no lies. actually, don't ask me anything. leave me alone. Clark seems like a good guy, and when Freddie Lounds and Will Graham agree on something, that's a pretty big indicator. Will's not sure what he did to get Clark so agreeable to not snooping within Baltimore's scope, but...well, he's glad they came to terms as they did. Talking to Clark, even when it's about something less than pleasant, has this odd, soothing effect. Will's not sure if he just has some words-as-relaxants power or it's just him, but he'd quite like Clark to stick around. ♫ ♫ ♫ |

ANNIE LEONHART.lyingheart / little giant. showing my ass to chilton and gideon, end up with you. clearly i should show my ass more often. shark tooth friendship necklaces, better than eating people. Pinged by Chilton and Gideon pointing fingers on the Network, Will spoke up, too. Made it easier to follow along that way. He didn't expect much of anything to come from it...and then Annie Leonhart became higher up on his "follow all public conversations" radar shortly after. Her world seems intense, and intensely awful. He can't fix that, but he can provide a little padding, here in this one. Sometimes the freezer in his shop has a more expensive box of ice cream reserved for her, so what? Sometimes she gives him a load of shark teeth and his thoughts are to make something with them that doesn't point to them being exactly what they are, so what? She communicates in ways Will can appreciate while having a lack of understanding about certain things Will is used to and takes for granted. That makes it, occasionally, easier for Will to be less of a mess when she's around. But it also is a source for worry, however he might not want to state it out loud. He's less worried about the possibility of her Titan-ing the hell out in the middle of a shift at his shop than he is about what might happen if the wrong sort comes across her missing pieces of knowledge plenty take for granted. Go figure. (Lunch time is never people with Annie. Lunch time with Annie? Is awesome.) ♫ ♫ ♫( i'm still breathing.) |

APRIL LUDGATE.aggressiveapathy / queen ♛. the best owner i've ever had. awkwardly opts into sexual tension, please keep my ass safe. and so the mongoose fell in bed with the snake and it's GREAT. as long as nobody from Baltimore knows, that is. Sweet Lord have mercy, the first person to initiate a conversation with Will on the Network was April Ludgate. Already in a whirlwind of confusion, April added more onto it, but not in a bad way. It ran the gamut from cute pets to bats to her being a vampire queen and him being prejudiced against vampires to talk of raccoons and clams. Who better to name badass sharks after? Will left Heropa to move to his beloved Virginia after sending her a gift, and text conversations about anything and everything and a destroyed house later? Well, he had to go somewhere. The secret to seduction is, apparently, a piss poor attempt at an accent of Natasha from Rocky & Bullwinkle. Apathy and empathy, it's like the positive and negative sides to magnets. Totally awesome, not quite sure how it all really works, but, mysteriously, it does. Though when Hannibal Lecter's around? Better keep personal relationships quiet. No making out on trains. He can find a way to absorb her ability to not care about anything and everything some other way. He envies it, even. Just a bit. When Hannibal Lecter is not around? Internal partying, time to move in and be on his best behavior around Eduardo. That is one raccoon nobody should want to fuck with. Heropa's selections of wines under five dollars are probably starting to deplete between these two, there is nothing to complain about here.April essentially owns his soul at this point. He's very pleased. ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫♫ ♫ ♫( you get me.) |

KANAYA MARYAM.glowsferatu / actual designer. chilton's best patient MY ASS. Kanaya has been around a while, which Will finds as beneficial as he finds saddening. But, hey, after a brief discussion about her world, here might be better! Except for the whole literal supervillain thing, that's...not quite so great. Their first real interaction came by way of Kanaya being in prison and Will bringing her the newspapers she'd missed out on. Just a normal chat about what she was missing without anything pushy going on, a chance to observe what he might have looked like...okay, fine. There was some selfishness going on. STILL. Kanaya's out and seems to be doing well enough, when she's not being screwed over by this place in general. He has, at least, learned not to mirror her troll quirk. Pro: it gets her attention. Con: she gets upset about it. Who knew! He's still trying to figure out how to navigate the waters of Kanaya Maryam successfully, and not at all hoping for something fashionable later on. Will and fashionable, please. ♫ ♫ ♫ |

MARY MORSTAN.sizetwelve / the observer.  there's something about mary  THERE REALLY IS THOUGH Mary's a nurse who keeps a watch on the Network about as much, if not more, than Will does. She's used to the odd types. In fact, she seems to welcome them more than anything else. He doesn't feel like she tolerates his presence. He feels like she actually enjoys it. That's great, because Will enjoys her presence, too. Even if she scolds him on trying to swap out as a hostage for Abigail. No one understands his deep ties to Abigail, it's okay. As long as she's gonna be cooking breakfast anyway, he's not gonna complain. ♫ ♫ ♫ |

MIKE PARKER.lackey / dog catcher. holy shit. Will found Mike outside during the Swear-In, realized Mike had been "living outside" when the house he was assigned to was Will's, Mike almost walked into a lamp, things looked like they'd be okay, despite some confusion and odd conversation. That had absolutely nothing on what happened when Mike tested out his power to become a dog without telling any of his housemates that one of his abilities included turning into a dog. So, Will being Will, found a tired dog that was receptive to being taken inside and carried and generally got pretty excited over having acquired Dog Number Two. Only he realized Dog Number Two wasn't a regular dog and then Mike Dog is leaving pot in his room and eventually coming out as a person and talking to Gunther about dog stuff and just. Why. Life difficult, get high. Life more difficult when Mike "covers" for Will and leaves him some terrifying conversations to find when he gets back together, more difficult when Mike's not around to discuss that with, and then pretty damn okay when Mike comes back. What a bro. And then Mike got upset that Will gave a bunch of pot to Jayden and attacked his dog after deciding not to shoot Will. So maybe...not...bros...maybe. They'll fix it. Somehow. Eventually. It's not like dog!Mike can find anyone who gives tummy rubs as good as Will does, and he knows it. It'll be fine. ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ |

DANA SCULLY.starbuckaroobanzai / ABSOLUTELY NOT BEDELIA DU MAURIER. you go after the alien, i'll go after the not alien. no we can't swap!! A doctor (but not that kind of doctor) who worked with the FBI back where she's from, Will and Dana Scully have a good amount of common ground. Both teachers at Quantico, both having been in the business long enough to be tired of it but what else is there to do? Her question of whether or not Will believed in the existence of extraterrestrials was somewhat less difficult to answer when he'd been in game as long as he had and had seen a house destroyed by a dog and wolf with exceptional strength. Yeah, he believes in them. Sort of stupid not to. Will has seen some shit in his day. Dana Scully has seen some shit, too, though he's certain some of what she's seen makes even a bird in a person in a horse's uterus look like the kid's cereal aisle. She's polite enough to show some surprise at it, though, which is nice of her. As long as Dana's willing to share, he's willing to listen. Especially when there are insects involved, because insects are cool.And so is Dana Scully. Despite her looking like...someone else who he won't mention unless he absolutely has to. ♫ ♫ |

KAREN STARR.boobwindow / cat person. reacts poorly to being namedropped. not fat. CAT PEOPLE SUCK SO MUCH AND SHE IS THE PRIME EXAMPLE OF WHY. GODDAMNIT.♫ ♫ |

JOHN WATSON.acclimatized / poor bastard. do u wanna blog about some cases Got off to a bit of a rough start with poor John Watson here, and tried to smooth over the roughness that affected Karen most by making a dog person deal with having another cat around. As one does. But then comes in Mary, and Will initiates conversation without immediately adding up the connection there. The two of them are clearly used to a specific sort of odd "genius" running around, Will doesn't feel out of place around either of them. He kicked up a bit of a fuss with the medical staff when he first returned from canon update, spoke to Mary, and decided that shifting over medical care to John was really not the worst idea. In fact, it was a pretty great one, because it means free home-cooked breakfast and spending that free home-cooked breakfast with people who don't seem to find him on the verge of mental breakdown or murder. Just a little odd, but John has yet to share how he thinks of Will's oddness with Will. If only he would, because Will would be so honored.He probably won't completely screw over everything in Will's life, either, which is amazing. A doctor doing what a doctor is supposed to do????? What the shit is this. ♫ ♫ ♫ |
