Deviation Actions
1. Another character asks your character to come to a birthday or other party... in honor of a person your character doesn't particularly like.
Lana: Uh, I mean, sure! Of course. Thank you for inviting me. (awkwardly smiles the entire party while avoiding the person altogether).
Enya: (shakes head and walks off).
Halle: (snort) You kidding me? No way am I wasting precious hours of my life on that /thing/.
Hevo: Uhh... How about no?
2a. Your character has a big due date coming up soon and is trying to finish their project, but another character keeps coming and bothering them.
Lana: (frowns to herself, trying to ignore them and work)
Enya: (glares at silently until they get the message)
Halle: (slams fist on table) You’re either leaving on your own, or I’m throwing you out the window. Decide.
Hevo: (groans) Can you leave, /please?/ I /need/ to finish this.
2b. Even worse: this character is >not leaving.>
Lana: I’m sorry, but I think you should get going. I really need to finish this.
Enya: (narrows eyes at) Leave.
Halle: (gets to feet and glares at the person) Window it is then.
Hevo: (rolls eyes and gets to feet, forcibly shoving the person out of the room) Shoo! Do whatever little yous do.
3. Your character comes home after a bad day to see that one of their friends or relatives made them their favorite food as a surprise.
Lana: (smiles impossibly wide and tackles into a hug, laughing) I love you!
Enya: (extremely flustered) I- thank you. (shares food with the people around)
Halle: (smiles and scarfs down food childishly) Thanks, ya lil kiss ass.
Hevo: (grins and freaks out for a few moments) This is great. /You’re/ great.
Lana: (walks into a store to ask an employee, embarrassed) Excuse me, please. I was wondering if you knew this area well? I’m lost.
Enya: (looks for someone around her age and height - she also specifically stops a female) I’m really sorry to bother you, but I’m new here and need some help getting around.
Halle: (stubbornly refuses to ask for help for a couple of hours before eventually giving in) Yo, I need directions. Can you help?
Hevo: (tracks down a cop or at least someone who looks like they know where they’re going) Excuse me, sir/ma'am, I’m lost.
5. Your character notices that a friend or relative of theirs is sitting on the stairs, crying.
Lana: (sits with and gently begins to bug/comfort) It’s okay.
Enya: (is extremely confused and stands there silently, waiting for the person to say something first)
Halle: (wrinkles nose and hesitantly pokes with foot) What’s wrong with you?
Hevo: (frowns and pats shoulder) Hey, what happened? Anything you want to talk about?
6. Your character wants to go do something fun, but someone reminds them that they must clean the house... before the guests come over this afternoon.
Lana: (pouts a moment, but then brightens at the mention of people visiting) Oh, yeah! I completely forgot. Thank you! (cleans frantically)
Enya: (goes out anyway, but comes back just in time to do some light cleaning before the guests arrive)
Halle: (smiles innocently) How ‘bout /you/ clean, and /I/ go out to have some fun, yeah? That seems fair to me.
Hevo: (groans and begrudgingly starts to clean. Once the guests get there, he overreacts of how much he ‘slaved’ for them)
7a. Your character is walking through a public place when they notice that a creepy-looking man keeps watching them.
Lana: (freezes in fear before scuttling away to find someone she knows)
Enya: (stares back, barely blinking and head tilting)
Halle: (lowkey stands taller to intimidate but acts bored, yawning fakely) You need something?
Hevo: (smiles cheerfully and waves)
7b. A while later, they notice the same man watching them again.
Lana: (slowly approaches the man, terrified but forcing herself to stay calm) Hello, I’ll have to ask you to stop staring at me. Please, it’s making me very uncomfortable.
Enya: (narrows her eyes and approaches the man angrily) Don't you have something better to do than stare at girls?
Halle: (narrows eyes and corners the man somewhere) Listen, friend, I need you to stop staring at me and screw off, got it?
Hevo: (gets irritated, but doesn’t show it, merely approaching the man and standing there a second) Is there something on my face?
8. Today is another character's birthday, and your character is about to present them with a gift. Your character then reaches into their bag/purse/pocket and discovers that the gift isn't there.
Lana: (starts panicking) I am so so so sorry! (verge of tears) I don’t know where it went! I’ll get you another, I promise!
Enya: (frowns) Sorry. (searches around for a while but gives up if it isn’t found, buying a new one of whatever it was)
Halle: (face falls) Shit, dude. It’s the thought that counts, yeah?
Hevo: (nervous laughter) /Just kidding!/ It’s not here.. It's... in my room. Let me go get it... (searches frantically until it is found or he can get another)
Observations:
-Lana says 'please' and 'thank you' a lot, even when it's not necessary.
-Enya doesn't talk all that much unless upset or she thinks she has to.
-Halle's speech is kinda rough, in a way, I guess? He uses things like 'yo' 'yeah?' and 'friend'.
-Hevo tends to /accentuate/ his words when he's angry or even excited somehow.
