#I know Alf is a lawyer of some kind

[roxanneslosteyes]

I thought this might be funny

Heads up! I know it might not be canon, I saw a screenshot of where it said Francis is implied to be Anastacha's dad on the wiki and it could be the dev trolling the fandom (Not the first time I seen indie game devs having fun with the fandom and messing around with their game/games or that screenshot is straight up fake which is sadly is a possibility) since Francis and Anastacha both have tired eyes (Also it might be a reference to "My/your dad left to get the milk" meme and Francis is a literal milkman 😭) due to this, The wiki says it's implied that they are ex-husband and wife the only link to this proof was the screenshot I mentioned about Francis being Anastacha's dad, SO of course, take this information with a grain of salt as I don't know if it is canon or not canon.

But hey, I'm just someone trying to have fun even if it's canon or not

#francis mosses #alf cappuccin #nacha mikaelys #thats not my neighbor #that's not my neighbor #badly done? Yes #Do I care? No #I'm here to have fun #meme #joke #Divorce selfie #Idk why Alf is the the Divorce lawyer #I know Alf is a lawyer of some kind #Wait Alf is a lawyer so it kinda makes sense why I made him into the Divorce lawyer in this meme

Any stalking historical romance you would recommend?

A Rose at Midnight by Anne Stuart. He doesn't stalk her at first, but he DOES after she poisons him with the intent to murder him (justified) and it doesn't really let up from there. Very dark, check your TWs.

Duke of Sin by Elizabeth Hoyt. Obviously. Valentine lives in his walls spying on Bridget for like. Months. Duke of Pleasure has some heroine-on-hero stalking with Alf acting as like a vigilante and watching the Duke of Kyle. Duke of Desire has some stalking as well. All of these are on the darker side, so check your TWs.

I just finished (and loved) The Gentleman Who Loved Me by Grace Callaway. The hero is 14 years older than the heroine and knew her when she was a kid--she was very much a little sister to him, she doesn't remember him because again, she was very young. Years later, when she's an adult, he comes across her again and begins keeping a look out for her, paying off people spreading gossip about her, threatening people who want to do her wrong, following her.... NORMAL BIG BRO STUFF.

Lady Charlotte's and The Seductive Spymaster by Grace Callaway. Charlie thinks her husband's long dead, but he's very much alive and has recently started following her around and fucking up her attempts to move on (after like OVER A DECADE). Very funny, and weeeeeirdly hot.

Beyond Scandal and Desire by Lorraine Heath. It's LIGHT here, but I do think that Mick Trewlove following Aslyn around as part of his Revenge Plot (and also staring out his window broodingly while rubbing a strand of pearls she lost in a bet at his club, which he immediately took from the winner) comes off as pretty stalkerish.

Rules for a Proper Governess by Jennifer Ashley. More heroine on hero stalking! The heroine is from the gutter and becomes obsessed with the stern lawyer hero, following him around all over town.

Melissa and The Vicar by S.M. LaViolette. Magnus hunts Melissa down like a DOG when she leaves him. And it takes him weeks and he doesn't sleep well during that time so he looks like SHIT and is completely deranged. I. Love. It.

In Which Matilda Halifax Learns the Value of Restraint by Alexandra Vasti. Some light heroine on hero stalking from afar. The heroine draws the hero in some of her personal porn, which is, as we know, one of my favorite things.

Tempt Me at Twilight by Lisa Kleypas. Lmao Harry most definitely stalks Poppy everywhere and basically ruins her life to force her to marry him. Kinda king shit tbh.

Shadowheart by Laura Kinsale. GLORIOUS STALKERY. Allegreto does some mastermind.mp3 shit to get Elena in his clutches, only to realize.... she's kind of A LOT.

The Duke Who Knew Too Much by Grace Callaway. Again, some heroine on hero stalking, I think. Emma is stalking her hero to prove that he committed a murder because she saw him doing thing against his mistress's will before she died! And he has to explain what CNC is to her. Bless.

I would also say that Pippa and The Prince of Secrets has a good deal of stalkery vibes? Cull is Keeping His Eye on Pippa because she's getting into trouble and he's now like, the leader of a bunch of CHILD THIEVES LMAO. A lot of Grace's books have stalkery elements, tbh, and fortunately I do love that.

The Lady Hellion by Joanna Shupe has a heroine who dresses as a man to go fight for justice at night, and a hero who's all "NOW WAIT ONE GODDAMN MINUTE" and starts stalking her as a result. It's all fun and games until you're following some broad around through brothels at night, boys.

Never Seduce a Duke by Vivienne Lorret has a hero who becomes obsessed with the heroine and follows her on a wild goose chase across Europe because he's convinced that she stole his special secret demented Arthurian cookbook. She.... just thinks he likes her, lmao.

[ ALFRED GARCIA ] is a [ TWENTY ONE ] year old [ PSYCHOLOGY ] major. [ HE ] is known for being [ INTELLIGENT & EASY GOING ] but [ CALCULATING & SPITEFUL ].  when i think of them, i imagine [ DRUNK MEALS AT 4AM, ROARING ENGINES AND AN UNMADE BED ]. and even though they’re a proud HU student now, we all have our roots. theirs run back to them being a [ MHP (AER) ] graduate.  i asked around and it turns out they [ AREN’T ] an AOP student. in their interview, they managed to woo the admissions team by [ PRESENTING A TEN MINUTE TED TALK ON TWO RANDOM TOPICS SELECTED BY THE ADMISSIONS TEAM ]. i guess that’s all there is to know! unless…

tw: slight abuse

BASICS

NAME: Alfred Garcia

NICKNAME: Freddie, Alf

BIRTHDAY: March 1

MBTI: ENFP

MORAL ALIGNMENT: Chaotic Neutral

ENNEAGRAM TYPE: 8, The Challenger

BACKGROUND

His mother is the owner of a huge chain restaurant across America, Canada and Mexico, his father, a retired soldier turned politician. So Alfred comes from a rich family but is completely lowkey about it. He never talks about what his parents do and usually covers up saying that his mom worked at a restaurant and his father was just a retired soldier.

Some people know though, because of course he was in newspapers a few times. Some for his parents, and some for his own achievements. 

Now look closely. His parents are tough on him, completely. His father is very strict, sometimes verbally and physically violent, but only in very rare occasions. Alfred didn’t resent his father for it but what he did do was rebel out of spite.

In middle school and in high school, he turned to everything that could make his parents go crazy. His mother, the ever so liberal woman, brushed it off as rebellion because of her husband’s attitude towards their son. His father? Turned red in the face whenever Alfred would come home when the sun is up.

What made it the best kind of rebellion was that they could never say anything against it. Because Alfred would always make it to school the next day and end up acing all his exams. He’s a very gifted child. Smart, athletic. People wonder how he manages his time.

So fast forward, of course he had to go to Hatchett considering his parents are both alumni of the school. It’s the only time he was open about who his parents are.

He’s very smart and continues to be. He’s also very athletic, having done a few sports even before stepping into college.

PERSONALITY

So, for personality, the whole point about Alfred is that he’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing, or sheep in wolf’s clothing. He’s only got two sides to him and it’s as real as it gets. So you either get that intelligent, calm, ambitious Alfred, or you get the wild, hungover, spiteful Freddie.

He’s a true charmer, really. He knows how to get what he wants, with or without the family background and the thick wallet. 

He’s very ambitious. Despite rebelling against his father just to piss him off, Alfred wants to be a lawyer, and eventually maybe follow in his father’s footsteps into politics. It’s why he works harder, even with his natural talents.

With his friends, he’s totally loyal. He would go out of his way to do things for them in times of need. But once that trust is broken, he will have no intentions of picking the pieces back up. 

Romantically too, he’s the same. But he’s more wishy washy with that. He had always thought Muse 39 was the one for him and that made him chase after her, but upon finding out that he was played, immediately turned his back on the idea of winning her back.

Since then he’s been more out there with the idea of dating. He’s scared to commit again, but when someone catches his eye, he’s definitely all for them.

So evidently, he hates being on the shorter end of the stick. His pride is too high for that. He always wants to be the one winning and to be the one who gets the better deal.

PLOTS

For standard plots, go here. These are the usual, best friends, fwbs, etc.

But what I specifically want are:

High school friends, his circle of friends please!

Family friend with tension (sexual, some weird rivalry, any)

On and Off, "we're just friends", but could probably be something more

Fake dated, had feelings, totally awkward now

Good girl/boy gone bad bc of his influence

An anchor who fusses over him after drunken nights and calls him in the morning to check 

Give me all the plots!

"Rafael, my sister is dating the accomplice to a mob boss, how can I get her arrested?"

“Evidence would be nice,” Rafael replied, his voice wasdistracted and at a distance like he had Alfie on speaker while working onsomething that he clearly thought was more pressing. “A witness, a confession,enough leverage could flip a – are you talking about Chloe?”

Alfie rolled his eyes, “Yes, Chloe. Works for a mob boss,that Chloe. Is an accomplice to possibly a dozens of crimes, including interferencein my investigation, that Chloe.”

“How do you know that she’s an accomplice?” Rafael asked andthen stated as an afterthought, “It’s not interfering in an investigation ifyou are not a part of law enforcement.”

“It’s Gotham,” He sighed, pressing his thumb into his eye inan attempt to elevate the on-coming headache. “Everybody is corrupt or workingfor somebody corrupt, you either fight the broken system or you’re anaccomplice in it.”

“That is a bleak perspective.”

“Her boss is Penguin, Raf, The Penguin,” He stated. “The list of accusations against him isendless and most of the men that made those accusations died soon after that. Hekills people, Raf, and she doesnothing to stop him. She’s an accomplice.”

“Alfie,” He sighed in a way that felt very much like he wasalso trying to keep a headache at bay. “Didn’t you say that it’s finals week?”

“So?” He asked. “You know, Harvey Dent let me shadow him. I’mpractically a lawyer already.”

“You’re a high school student, Alf, not some kind of publicdefender.”

“I will be and I’ve decided to start defending the publicnow by putting her in prison.”

“And Penguin?”

“I’m working on that, too.”

“Do you want my opinion, Alfie?”

“It’s the reason I called.”

“Drop it, Chloe is a nice girl and Winnie seems happy withher,” He told him. “Like you said, it’s Gotham and she’s a lounge singer. Idoubt that she is in the fold of ‘mob business’ and think about it, how isWinnie going to respond to you trying to lock up her girlfriend?”

“Unsurprised and probably with knives.”

“I…okay, that’s my opinion.”

“To just do nothing?”

“Not nothing,” He said. “Study for your finals, maybe relaxa little.”

“Nah, I’m going to go talk to Harvey.
