Character's Name: Angeal Hewley
Character's Journal: wear_tear_rust
What Have They Been Up To This Month?: The story so far: Angeal has been adjusting to life on a star ship which includes, but not limited to, learning about the relicators and how they work, understanding the different worlds involved, doing research on cultures, and finding his place in the sun -- so to speak.

It's planned that his other two wings may emerge, which might raise some questions. Angeal will throw himself in research on that end as well. (Gotta love those mutations, thanks to Jenova cells acting all wonky.)

Type of CR You're Looking For:: Friends, people that might notice him even though he's perfectly fine standing in the background without people handing him a medal for his deeds.

Anyone willing to talk to him about gardening, when the subject comes up, sparring partners, general things for starters are good too. He'll most likely start doing his research within the course of a week after the mission in cultural things.

Cultural things? Hi! I have a social scientist here. ;)

[wear_tear_rust]

That would be amazing! He would love to speak with someone about these things. They matter to him, since he doesn't want to offend anyone even offhandedly. I think that would make some great CR.

[a_quick_study]

It's a deal! In his day job, Jonas is a cultural adviser on an exploration team, so ... totally your guy for that.

[wear_tear_rust]

Awesome! Also, Angeal has been known to feed the people he works with and Genesis knows this first hand. He's probably going to cook a meal or two while they do their research.

Yeah, Angeal doesn't half-ass anything. When he's interested in it, he goes in all the way. I think they'll make a great team as diplomatic advisers to their respective teams. I'd love to see these two work together.

[a_quick_study]

Uh. So. Jonas and food is a thing. He LOVES trying new foods. Gabby will back me up on this.

[wear_tear_rust]

YAY! It's already plotted that Angeal will try it all even the wiggly ones. He loves it too. "To understand a culture, one must try the food. Some might not be agreeable, but it's an acquired taste."

[a_quick_study]

AHAHAAAA. I love it. Jonas would so be down with that. Learning Earth food is one of the things he did as soon as he got to Earth.

[wear_tear_rust]

That's awesome! Gaian foods aren't that much different than Earth's but the names and the color might be a little off. Hey, anyone to share the weird things in the Star Trek universe is awesome in my book!

[a_quick_study]

Jonas, what are you getting yourself into.

He's not originally from Earth, but we don't know a lot about his culture. He sure takes to new foods well though!

[wear_tear_rust]

And Angeal loves to cook so there's going to be some fun had there. :) Hey, to be fair, Angeal has no idea either. Just wait until he gets to the Klingon menu. *shudders*

And once I'm finished with the plot stuff Dylan is about to go through, I haven't forgotten that he needs to meet Angeal, either. He can spar either with weapons or hand to hand if that's a thing, but Dylan's also plenty friendly if you just want to say hi sometime.

[wear_tear_rust]

Definitely! I think him and Dylan will get along famously and hand to hand is a thing for Angeal. He prefers it over using that giant sword of his. (Yes, he prefers to prevent bloodshed than cause it.)

I think the two of them will have their moments of friendly banter, a few drinks, and talks about saving lives. The post mission aftermath will also be a thing too. (He'll want to learn more about different worlds and how to save them all.)

[dreams_dont_die]

Ah. My boy who's on a self-appointed mission to rebuild civilization and Angeal wanting to save All the Worlds. Match made in heaven. We can have them meet up in the gym or after the plot or something.

Seriously, every thing we say to each other about this makes me more convinced they'll get on famously. Dylan commands the most powerful starship in three galaxies, but he has the heart of a peacekeeper.

[wear_tear_rust]

Likewise! I think they'll make one of those buddy pairs that will try their hardest to make things run as smoothly as possible even if they had a rough beginning on arrival.

With these two on board, they can definitely help keep the Enterprise crew from suffering the backlash of new comers that could explode outward. Angeal is going to want to learn as much as he can to be as effective as possible and he doesn't mind playing second fiddle to Dylan either.

Like Dylan, Angeal may look like he can squish things with his bare hands and he'll definitely be on board with Dylan's efforts in keeping the peace.

[dreams_dont_die]

Which is good, because Dylan is used to command, and even more so since he's the only person left from the whole military he's a part of and he's trying to make the whole universe into a better place.

Dylan can totally squish people -- he's very, very strong and a very good fighter when he does decide to fight. It just takes a fair bit to make him take that decision. Usually.

[wear_tear_rust]

Oh good, then we won't have to worry about holding back in sparring. Angeal is a living tank and has taken a fireball to the face point blank by Genesis and suffered no burns. He holds back a lot even then.

Squishing things should be saved for making orange juice. :P Anyway, Angeal will totally let Dylan take the lead. He's the type that doesn't let ego get in the way when things need to get done. He leads in his own way. (Plus he's awesome in supporting the stronger leaders than taking the lead himself. He's better with small groups and working alone.)

[dreams_dont_die]

Dylan's mother's family were genetically engineered to be super strong and heavy, and that makes him canonically able to hold his own even against genetically engineered superwarriors, so yeah. No need to hold back.

[wear_tear_rust]

Awesome. He's a first generation SOLDIER himself so that makes things interesting. It's just now getting the two to talk is all that's left.

DID SOMEONE SAY FRANDS??

Rose really enjoys meeting new people and gaining new friends. If you're gonna be stuck together, you might as well know who you're going to be stuck with! So - yes.

Throwing them together and seeing what happens? I can also offer up a Rory who has been kind of geeking around the ship on his own lately, but should also not stick so close to his wife's side and all that. >>;

Rory would even discuss gardening. I have a feeling he wants to start up a little vegetable garden in the backyard of his and Amy's house back on Earth.

[wear_tear_rust]

It's a good philosophy to have.

This can definitely happen with both. Angeal is a pretty easy-going guy once he gets to know them and he's pretty easy to talk to. (Did I mention he's a very good listener?) He's looking at growing some Banora White trees in the hydroponics lab but first he'll start them off in his room.

He's used to growing things and loves to watch them grow. He likes to talk to his plants, even though to some people it may seem strange.

I think him and Rory will get along with the gardening thing and meeting new people is always a bonus.

[rorypond]

Faaaaantastic! :D

Let's make this CR happen. Woo!

[wear_tear_rust]

Definitely! :)

These two have to meet!
