Oscar Mannington UPDATE
// Yes, I'm still dead on this blog. Yes, have Oscar update anyway
Tumblr media
BACKSTORY:
Oscar's still got a bigass family, though their names and identities are highly underdeveloped for now. He has around 5 siblings, all adopted, and two very loving (and financially stable) parents. His very toxic relationship with his ex, Alice Little, still happened, and his strained relationship with others and his family due to mental instability still happened. Still has a big interest in theatre, and I think the only big change career-wise is that being in theatre is his career. Maybe not as much as a commercial performer anymore, but either working on costumes or tech.
The biggest change in general is that...the Earth-power verse he has is now canon! It's still underdeveloped, but still as cosmic-horror-y as it used to be. Basically, he has this horrific hivemind that's connected to him. It doesn't actively harm him, but the state of the planet certainly impacts the hivemind itself -- which then impacts Oscar. Is it actually the Earth living inside of him? Probably not. Maybe it's some fun alien shenanigans, who knows.
(Personality below)
PERSONALITY:
I remember I used to write Oscar (and Ormad, for that matter) as very emotional, rather immature characters. I didn't realize at the time, but they were like that because I was a mentally unwell teenager, and I was very heavily projecting myself into them. Now that I'm officially 18 (and much better mentally), I can look at their personalities in a more accurate and individual manner.
Oscar is a big introvert. Not shy, like he used to be, but he just doesn't like talking to people. Still suffers from a lot of anxiety due to GAD, but he makes sure to keep up with his meds, and he no longer uses his mental disorders as an excuse to act like a dick to people. That being said, despite him being rather antisocial, he is still compassionate and moral. Still loves his pet cat Marley and his pet goose Greyson, too.
He's got a nihilistic view of the world, but nihilistic in a "Nothing matters so let's do whatever the fuck we want" kinda way. He has some trouble expressing his emotions, too. If you give him a gift he is very grateful for, he won't naturally smile or laugh. He kind of has to force it because he feels bad for not reacting as one expects. Yes, he would feel incredibly grateful and happy, but it doesn't immediately travel to his face and body language. You can tell when he's super comfortable around you when he only has the tiniest expressions and doesn't react much. In that scenario, if you get him to laugh loud, you are really funny.

// I’m not even active here anymore but I have too much attachment to all my old rp mutuals that I actually haven’t unfollowed many of their blogs. I don’t care if threads take up my dashboard bc it just makes me happy seeing how active people are and how they’re still engaged with what they create

// This blog is absolutely fuckin dead. It’s so dead that I still haven’t changed back its icon from last year’s Pride Month. But if I had the motivation I’d update the fuck out of Oscar’s bio bc sooooo much has changed about him!!!

// Skyrim currently has me by a chokehold. When I finish my current character I’mma play a Rudy who’s a thief. Probably not as a Nord tho and as a Khajit? There’s no giant skeever people walking about so maybe a cat Rudy will have to do.
In the meantime, here’s a pic of my Skyrim character who’s based off another OC of mine!!

// I barely have any motivation to do full RP threads on here anymore, so I think I might unfortunately mark this blog as having an indefinite hiatus. I’ll still be here to look at people’s posts, like them and watch their activity in silent support, but I don’t think I myself can RP seriously atm.
In the meantime, here’s a random WIP I have that’s unrelated to anything
