- we won't back down

[alexander]

i took a ride on a february morning,
JUST GETTING OVER IT AND DEALING WITH THE MOURNING!

Alexander Mercer is not a man of many friends. He's less rough around the edges and more spiked. Being rude, loud, violent, and generally unfriendly, it wouldn't be likely that many people end up chummy with Lex. However, sometimes he does take a liking to people. Really, the key to it is just learning to take his frequently espoused insults without wanting to rip his throat out. Or wanting to, but managing to hold it in and get over it. Eventually, Lex's insults can turn from intentionally aggressive to... friendly insults. Yeah, he's that kind of person. People with whom Lex is friends with, however, can expect the most drop dead loyal friend they'll ever have. He'll commit any crime and perform almost any task for the sake of his good friends - and probably enjoy it, unless it involves textbooks and homework.

I'D BE LYING IF I TOLD YOU I COULD HANDLE LOSING YOU ![/font][/color]

Well, I really don't expect Lex to have many past girlfriends. Possibly flings, yes. For a possible pairing, I am actually pretty open to any personality wooing him over, whether it's someone who pushes him back, or someone who's more meek and needs protecting (he does have that instinct, his mom put it into him). Also, anything that might seem like it might give another person hesitation, probably won't for Lex. He'll jump into bed with an older woman - or a teenager. He just doesn't care about the rules all that much, so long as he thinks he'll get away with it. However, he's a very, VERY jealous lover, so if it's more than a one-night-stand, better watch out, Lexy will probably start getting possessive. Lex is honestly pretty plotworthy when it comes to a future girlfriend, so yay?

[/color][/blockquote]


what are the things that you say to me
SOMEBODY TELL ME HOW LONG THIS DARKNESS WILL SURROUND YOU !

Well, there is little doubt Lex is one of the most antagonistic persons alive. He'll talk shit just for the fun of it, even if his logic doesn't make sense or he's making himself look like a jerkoff in front of everyone. Enemies are going to fill up most of his relationships, I do not doubt it for a second. Either people that want to fight him, people who avoid him, or people who even fear him since he trains hard with his element and his temper is easily set off. I love having Lexy start stuff - he'd probably be the first person to start a war between the elements, and to me it'd be hilarious, although I don't know about that actually happening. He's also a loyalist through and through, so water types are probably going to land here automatically, unless they're just AMAZINGLY AWESOME and somehow Lex finds it in himself to forgive them for being different from him. Which is very unlikely.

i'm sick and tired of being sick and tired
WE'VE FLOWN TOO HIGH, MAKE A SWARM TOO LOW ![/color][/size]

A bit of background; Lex is close to his mom more than anyone else, and will do anything for her. They've had a rift between them since she remarried his father, but she's a hot button issue for Lexy. Don't ever insult mama. He also has a younger half-sister, who's six-years-old. He's only met her a few times, but he's actually a bit fond of her, and it may just be she'll follow in his footsteps. Lex doesn't really have much other relatives close to him - his father he holds a grudge against for initially leaving the family after a very rough couple of years in Lex's early childhood. If anyone wants to be some sort of cousin, though, I wouldn't mind, to be honest. If you have a good plot in mind, I especially would take to the idea of adding a couple limbs to Lex's family tree. Just throwing that out there. : P And that is all.

[STARK FROM JOISEY]

alexander & nell

nelly is a college freshman from the earth element and is nineteen years old. she works at a daycare and volunteers at a group home. by element and alliance, they're enemies. but since this is my main, i'd love to plot a little more. last winter she was on trial for killing her mother, and got acquitted. perhaps he heard about it and hates her or something? since he has a close relationship with his mother and everything. plus, it'd be another reason for them to be enemies. xD and i want enemies for nelly~

alexander & samson

sammy is an eleventh grade thunder. he's mute, and lives with his adoptive mother in an occult shop. he doesn't really put himself out there, but alexander could probably get him into a conversation. they definitely have potential to be friends.

alexander & altair

altair is the fire leader. she's in eleventh grade, even though she and her sister are eighteen. they're from britain and transferred late. altair's a hardcore partier, fighter, a model, and a complete bitch. i think she'd actually like alex, which is saying a lot since she generally doesn't like people. xD she'd try to get in his pants, too. maybe a frans with benefits deal or something? no matter what, they'd definitely be chill with each other since they're loyal fires. that is, if altair's temper doesn't get in the way.

alexander & yeager

yeager is an eleventh grade water. he has two daddies, a psychopath little sister, and a criminally inclined grandmother. he's a prankster, and alexander would definitely be someone he targets because he's a thunder. though he has elemental advantage, alex is a college student, so his butt would get whooped. in any case, definitely enemies.

[JOSHUA DONOVAN DALE]

joshua&&alexander ,

Finally a potential enemy that could actually take Josh in a fight if they went at it! Most of the people who hate Josh are high school students and stand like no chance. >.> Okay, so Josh is a traitor to the Fire element/alliance and most if not all of his element fucking hate him because of it. If that's not enough, Josh is Nell's fiancé so if Lex and Nell are unfriendly Josh will hate him even more. I imagine that when Josh was a loyalist, him and Lex could have been good buddies. He was the type that Josh hung around then, but then it could have gone sour when Josh turned on his element? He's on the side of the Waters Alex hates so much, so xD

A fight between them could probably go either way. Joshua's only a year ahead of Lex in power control so it's not so much of an advantage that he could crush Lex in two seconds flat and they're both pretty tall & fighters by nature. Is it bad that I really want them to be rivals? Like really want it? xD They could be those enemies that can never truly beat one another for good because every fight would have a different outcome depending on who gets the upper-hand first and ijustreallywantanenemyshh.

ashton&&alexander ,

run in fear, Ashton. run. in. fear

Yeah Ashton's the Earth leader and he can usually stick up for himself but I get a serious "HOLY SHIT RUN" vibe from him when confronted with Alex. Lex will have no problems from Ashton because Ash would stay as FAR AWAY FROM HIM AS POSSIBLE. xD Unless it came down to a war and they were forced to fight, in which case Ashton would be royally fucked.

rowena&&alexander ,

As a Thunder loyalist, Ro automatically likes Lex until he gives her a reason not to. If Altair and Lex end up on good terms that also helps, seeing as she and her sister are tight as shit. She'd younger than he is but if he doesn't care about that then they could be chill with one another.

caterina&&alexander ,

So the first thing Rin told me is that she'd totally tap that. :| She's twenty-three, so only a couple years older than he is, and in her books college students are fair game because she doesn't teach them. Do with that information what you will, LOL. Even if he wouldn't sleep with her, I think these two could get along. She likes his type of personality to befriend and like I said, not much of an age difference to hinder them xD

[alexander]

ALEXANDER + NELL

If you're looking for an enemy, Lexy is number one when it comes to those! He'd find some reason to hate her probably, even if she hadn't been accused of killing her mother. In which case, she's some kind of hellspawn in his eyes no doubt and he will verbally abuse the crap out of her. It will be most amusing, ohohoho. Well, to me. Probably traumatizing to other parties involved. Although Lex might get a kick out of it too. He's a jerk like that.

ALEXANDER + SAMSON

Someone who couldn't talk back to Lex definitely has potential to be Lex's friend... usually when people open their mouths, half the time he'll find some reason to take offense to what they say. So, frankly, someone who just listened to Lex rant a lot would probably be prime material for Lex's friendship. Lex can be a generous friend, though, so it wouldn't have to be all one sided whining from Lex, eheheh.

ALEXANDER + ALTAIR

Of course, Lexy would definitely have to be at least tolerant of the leader of the bunch. I can see them having a friend/hate relationship. Since they're both angry types, but also have a lot in common. Arguments and friendly insults abound! And, of course, some time in the sheets. Lex gets a bit jealous though, so that's something to watch for.

ALEXANDER + YEAGAR

Oh yeah, throw down time! Lexy would definitely not take kindly to getting pranked. He'd have to get his revenge, and it would be swift. : P

ALEXANDER + JOSHUA

I really like that idea of them being former friends, and then turned against each other when Joshua decided to switch camps. I can just imagine it being really painful for Lex, and then a sort of Obi-Wan and Anakin style showdown. "You were the chosen one, Josh! You were supposed to bring peace to the galaxy, not destroy it! Bring balance to the force, not leave it in darkness!" "ARGGH I HATE YOU -ON FIRE-" And it'd be great. And then they'll be forever in combat against one another, but deep down Lexy's still wounded and misses his friend and ahhh the drama!

ALEXANDER + ASHTON

Hooray! Lexy will love it. He gets a real kick out of people being afraid of him. Power rush and all that. He'd chuckle if Ashton ever came close enough for Lex to see he's afraid. xD

ALEXANDER + ROWENA

Most definitely! It's a little crazy, Lex is actually going to gain some friends for once. He'll be chillax with both her and Altair, I don't doubt it, though. He can also be the greatest of terrible influences, which sounds like neither of them could use anymore. So hooray! They can get in trouble together and it will be fun.

ALEXANDER + CATERINA

Oh man, I'm trying to think if it would be in Lex's personality to go for it. Probably, just to say he slept with a teacher, even if she never taught him, haha. He'd get a real kick out of it, truly. But yeah, reading through her app a bit, she seems like the type that would get along with Lex (as much as any one person can).

[SKYE JESSICA FORD]

people around skye's age!!! lol and on this side of the alliance! haha anyway -- this is skye. :3 she's a year older than him but that's not much at all really and a thunder. she's definitely leaning a lot closer to neutral than she is to either side of the alliance, but that's more of her personal thoughts than anything -- outwardly she's still very much with the fires/thunders. anyway! somehow i think they would either get along really well, or hate each other. XD; so why not a bit of both? skye is... weird. she's definitely strong-willed enough to take his insults, unless he's like literally cursing her out all the time or something -- but she doesn't have enough of a temper to really get mad unless it's a particularly bad day or something like that. so i can kind of see it being like they're friends who might really really annoy each other; some days skye would push right back and others she'd just ignore his unfriendliness. (i also feel like he'd be the exact type of guy she would have liked briefly in high school and then been all "wtf was i thinking, he's insane!" afterward, lol. but that's neither here nor there for the present! :D) haha, anyway, do let me know if something above doesn't work out or there's something you'd add. skye can be a bit difficult to plot with.

[erin]

alexander & ethan

Ethan's a college water freshman and very loud, outgoing, and upbeat. He's always got a smile on and is super cheery most of the time. And he's got a big mouth. So I definitely see him and Lex really not getting along at all. Ethan's definitely easy to make fun of, especially by other guys. He's a music fanatic and a theatre geek and has been called gay and other selective names over the years. He mostly befriends girls and is the exact opposite of a strong, athletic guy. But despite his lack of physical strength, Ethan isn't one to shy away from a fight. He's got a large amount of pride and isn't afraid to tell someone exactly what he thinks of them. So if Lex were to insult him or anything like that, Ethan would definitely bite back.

[/size]

[STARK FROM JOISEY]

alexander & nell

she's one of those overly-nice people, so he would probably find her annoying, anyway. xD and she'd give him a bit of snark to his verbal abuse. she certainly wouldn't appreciate it, even though she's too nice for her own good. we could thread these two getting in a confrontation? perhaps she pranks him with a water student, and he gets pissed at her?

alexander & samson

pffff afterward sam would just write, "...dude...get a blog." joking of course. but he'd definitely be one to sit and nod as he blew off steam. added bonus--he actually listens. xD

alexander & altair

altair demands respect. VOLTATILE RELATIONSHIPS FTW. yeah, i can see them going for each other, and then him totally kicking her ass because he's a bigger, better graduate. xD and probably just be all sarcastic and douchey with each other. haha jealous lexy, altair is very liberal with her lovin'. </3 at least she's not a professional whore, anymore. we can thread these two, if you so like, or if you don't want to get into too many threads i can hold off.

[BASTIAN RAY HAWTHORNE]

Alex & Bastian

So Bastian is the only one who I think would have any interaction right now with Alex (I think Alex would eat Kai alive...lol). He's a freshman Wind elemental who's parents (adoptive) live in Maple Hallow. I know you were talking with Nirvana about maybe Lex and Cynder getting along. Once Cynder and Bastian get together you'll probably be seeing more of Bastian.

[JOSHUA DONOVAN DALE]

joshua&&alexander ,

Poor Lex and his pining for friendship xD These two will be great rivals. Always at each others throats but at the same time remember all the /good times/. ESPECIALLY since Lex and Nell don't get along. Josh is mucho protective of his lady and he will definitely have something to say about that, LOLOL. Should we thread?

ashton&&alexander ,

Poor Ash xD

rowena&&alexander ,

I am TOTALLY up for them getting into trouble together. She's not the greatest when it comes to making wise decisions for herself, LOL.

caterina&&alexander ,

Finally Rin has someone she can befriend xD Her personality dictates that, like Lexy, she has WAY more enemies than friends. I'm up for threading any of my characters, whichever you prefer.

[brett]

Lex + Brett

So these two would probably get along pretty well. Brett's a wild child, partier, bassist, alcoholic, drug addict, and newly a dealer. He's always getting into something, and he needs more friends to do that with. I can see the two just going on bizarre adventures, ending up in a jail cell together, and the like. Maybe they fight first? Brett could get his ass kicked and be like "lemme buy you a beer!" and then treat him as a rolemodel for a time. xD I dunno, I'm just spitballing. What do you think?

[/blockquote][/blockquote]

[alexander]

ALEXANDER + NELL

Ohhh, yes. And since Lex and Josh are going to have had a falling out, he'll have extra incentive to hate her, as the reason he "went to the dark side". :B He'll totally get into a good rage and literally will steam. I am good with this idea fo sho.

ALEXANDER + SAMSON

Hooray! Then they should definitely be friends. Lexy will whine but he'll kick anyone who looks crossways at his buddy right in the keister.

ALEXANDER + ALTAIR

I'm cool with whatever works! I think Lex's open thread is still not posted to, if you want her to come help Lex make a dick of himself, haha.

ALEXANDER + JOSHUA

Awwww yesssss. I definitely want these two to get threaded and get into a fight. And be all emotional and angry and fiery and also a little sad on the inside but mostly PISSED OFF! I would love to get these two threaded first, truly - and I pretty much agree with both Rowena and Rin, so I'll just leave it at that. : P

ALEXANDER + SKYE

Haha, oh gosh, this does sound like it'd be a nice little push/push back relationship. And the idea of her having liked him in high school makes me laugh. He'll probably be shocked if he ever learns of it - Lex is really oblivious to that sort of stuff unless someone is blatantly rubbing up on him. He'd laugh, though, and tease her about it too. Because he's a jerky face.

ALEXANDER + ETHAN

Lexy will definitely call Ethan all sorts of feminine names and sneer at him a lot. Lex is too stupid/stubborn to acknowledge he's at an elemental disadvantage against a water around his own age. He'll mostly just mock Ethan, though, and probably wouldn't push a physical confrontation unless Ethan does something to intentionally provoke Lex. Which isn't too hard, of course, but so long as they don't talk much probably wouldn't happen.

ALEXANDER + BASTIAN

Yarr, they might not really see each other much, and probably he'd think Bastian was a bit girly and weak in the first place. He'll probably give Bastian lip if/when they meet, and only lay off if Cynder decided to give him a verbal lashing. At least, as much as Lex can. He can't resist pushing buttons.

ALEXANDER + BRETT

Wow, more possible friends! It's quite crazy for Lexy to have so many people he can get along with. But yes, I like the idea of Lex getting himself an admirer after whooping ass. And it will totally go to Lex's head. And Brett is haaawwtttttt... >_> But that's just my private opinion, Lex is too hetero to even admit another guy is attractive in an objective way. But I appreciate a nice chest. Hurrr... I mean what? -ahem- But yeah, if you want to thread them getting into a confrontation and then becoming friends afterwards, my body is ready.

[SKYE JESSICA FORD]

hahaha oh man, she'll be so amused by him. XD that's kind of awesome, skye hasn't had much chance to use snark so far. :D anyway i guess i already said it in the cbox but we should definitely thread these two! <3

[NELL DOE DALE]

alexander & nell

NELL STEALING YO HOMIES, BRO. lololol anyway, do you want to start or should i?

alexander & altair

i think alysse claimed your open thread, but idek. xDD so maybe it'd be a good idea to start a new one maybe? whoever doesn't start the other one can do this one.

[alexander]

ALEXANDER + NELL

Oh, I don't mind who starts. : P I can, if you're too busy. I know that most people here have far more characters than I, haha.

ALEXANDER + ALTAIR

Yarrr, I agree with this. o: Should we do so simultaneously or one at a time? Might be overwhelming to start too many threads all at once, lol.

ALEXANDER + SKYE

Yes please! What sort of thread, when, where, how, what, and all the other silly details. : P

[brett]

Lex + Brett

Sorry for taking so long to respond to this, but we should definitely thread this out at some point soon. Brett needs more friends. xD
