Man Richie popped into my head completely fully formed. I didn't even have that much cr with Aidan at the time. I'm only going to do this for Richie because Rich is so different he might as well be named something else.
2. my favourite moment in canon for this character. / my favourite moment in the game for this character
When he proposed to Umeka.
His menage a trois with Tori and Ava
When he worked out Capri was an Immune while on a friendship date with her
Organising blind dates
Yeah Richie yeah.
3. my favourite piece of headcanon for this character.
I originally gave him heterochromia a) because I really loved his PB's design (toki ;;) and b) because I was listening to a lot of David Bowie. I think a lot of Richie's music collection is David Bowie too.
Richie wants to be a therapist. I like the idea that he becomes one and dedicates his life to taking care of people who really need it.
He and Umeka are/were best friends forever, come Shade or shine.
I like the knowledge that there are a lot of people out there he'd fight to the death for. Ava, Capri, and Umeka especially.
He only uses punctuation when he's so upset he can't hide how upset he is/is too upset to go back and change it.
I've just found out that Simon Pegg has heterochromia so in thirty years Simon Pegg will be Richie's pb.
4. Something about this character which makes me laugh.
It's really lovely to play someone so high energy and enthusiastic. It's nice to play a character where all the threads are happy. I play a lot of people who bring people down. It's nice to play Richie and be supportive, kind and a complete friend to everyone.
IDK?? Morally and relationship wise, he's just the best person I've ever played, I think. Especially since, considering the whole...lying thing, he's incredibly well adjusted and a huge promoter of self-care and is so actively...there for people. It just makes me smile. I love Ricardo.
5. Something about this character which makes me cry.
Richie is probably the biggest liar I've ever played and the least likely to be found out for lying. It's not that he's completely false in his affection or enthusiasms; he's a very serious young man beneath the capslock. There's two things I don't think anyone found out in game: a) how he got heterochromia (getting into a fist fight) and b) his obsession with the Lezard books.
His lies are a selfless/selfish thing: he doesn't want the people he loves to be as worried as he is about the world. Which means he must hold them at arm's length. I don't think he has a relationship where he is entirely and completely honest about anything. I don't know if he ever will. It would take something extremely drastic for Richie to show emotional honesty.
There's at least one AU where he and Aidan try to kill each other, out of love for each other.
It scares him that the Lezard family has so much power. At the same time, he wants that power; he wants to be head of the family. But he knows that even if he wants it to do good, it won't end well; it's a Gandalf and the One Ring situation.
6. One of your characters that I think would get along well with them
he will get on with all of them no exceptions
