WHERE ARE THEY NOW?

THE CATCH-UP MEME



It's been a hot minute since R2, and even longer since R1! And with the strong possibility everyone's going to overcrowd a poor Denny's this weekend (sorry Heather), it might be fun to get down what everyone's been up to in the interim! Where do they live, who have they been hanging out with, what have they been up to? Let's find out, and maybe plan/solidify some new offscreen events!

Character: The character you played!
Player: Who you are!
Round: 1 or 2?
Summary: What's your character been up to? Anything you've already ironed out, as well as any room you've left in case anyone wants to Know Things or plot out things that happened offscreen!
Looking for?: Is there anything in particular you want your character to have done? Comfort zones you want them to have been dragged out of? Whatever! This is a quick and dirty meme, use the questions here however you like! Add more, don't answer one, live your truth!

[37773972]

Character: Dr. Stephen Browning (aka, "STEPHEN, NO")
Player: Toni
Round: 2
Summary: Lives with Mephisto, Loki, and Sigyn in a polycule penthouse. Attends therapy on the regular, though he's developed some mild agoraphobia and greatly prefers to not leave the house without someone he knows, or at least in the same general vicinity. More or less has gone back to being a functional adult, though! He even has a job(?) as a freelance researcher, writing papers under a pseudonym as well as conducting online classes.
Looking for?: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Character: Anne of Cleves
Player: Sam
Round: 2
Summary: Anne of Cleves followed Mephisto to New York City, returning to the stage with her fellow Queens in Six the Musical, because yeah, we're just that meta. She's opened a bar called The Castle, and has an apartment above the bar-- but more often than not she's couch-surfing at the penthouse, where she definitely does not live, but her toothbrush probably does. She also visits Richard's Land frequently. She helped Richard take Evan Hansen home, and has probably seen Evan a lot more than anyone else-- she's just "checking up on him", but he isn't really sure why she needs to keep having bottles of wine with his mom to do that.

Looking for?: Antics. Also, Anne places family above all else, and she considers everyone from R2 her family-- even Beetlejuice, and Evan Hansen. So family shit too.

Character: Nana Daiba
Player: Lynsey
Round: 2
Summary: lol
Looking for?: LOL

[onthebusagain]

Character: Heather McNamara
Player: Sam
Round: 1
Summary: "quick and dirty" lyndon says like i didnt prewrite this the second i started feeling sad about h mac

After her time stuck in the opera house, Heather's softened. She was already pretty tame, compared to the other Heathers-- and by the end of her canon, even more so. But her time in a game of death-- a game of death that she, somehow, despite it all, survived-- has made her want to change for good.

Heather recognized that there was work to be done. So she went straight to it-- practicing being more kind to others. More than anything, Heather wants to be someone worthy of her title. The Best Friend. She still struggles to connect with others and has difficulty finding her footing without a leader to follow.

She's put herself to the test countless times. While her job at Liminal Denny's is ultimately not a real serious job, it's taught her to be responsible and stand on her own two feet. She's balanced that with two years in Community College, before transferring to a four-year school to wrap up a degree in Biology-- something that would have made anyone at Westerburg laugh hysterically. Now, she should be finishing up her very last courses, before transferring to Veterinary School.

Instead, something's happened, and her ride to work is MIA, and the substitutes are all awful. Last year, like 40 people showed up to Dennys at the same time and started literally tearing people apart. She's starting to feel sick to her stomach, like something like that's about to happen again... if she can even make it to work on time.

Looking for?: R1! What's been up? Have you accepted Heather into your lives, despite her occasional bitchy quips? She's trying really hard! R2! Have you been back to Dennys? Maybe you feel bad for that waitress, especially after she started to tell you her own horror stories about the old opera house.

[onthebusagain]

maybe nana made it to dennys a time or two

[heathencall]

Character: Mephisto
Player: Aspen
Round: 2
Summary: Lives in a New York penthouse with Loki, Sigyn, and Stephen. Anne of Cleves does not live there, do not listen to what she says. He also definitely didn't steal/wire money for himself to support the family.
May or may not have started a cult on TikTok? Unfortunately has a rat tail.

Other than hanging around the penthouse doing nothing, Meph makes frequent trips to watch Anna perform. Potentially has seen her show the most out of the group? It's only because he's waiting for her to trip and fall on stage one of these days.

He makes very regular trips up to a juvenile detention center to visit Riley. Some of these trips are sanctioned. Some of them are late night, after light's out and he just holds her while she sleeps.
Looking for?: Meph's probably been keeping tabs on everyone, but like. casually. The way your dad tries to be when he's worried about you but doesn't want you to think that he's actually worried.

[mcfife]

Character: Angus McFife XIII
Player: Nara
Round: R2 and R3
Summary: After R2, Angus went back to his universe to fix things up in his kingdom, freaked everyone out because he got Evil Stabbed and turned out okay, and invited Christine Canigula to train as a barbarian under the Hootsman's tutalage. He's been giving updates on Fife and making royals visits while giving tours of space and the Land of Unicorns until one day he just disappeared.
Looking for?: Any handwaved visits to Fantasy Scotland and his visits to Boring Earth. He's gotta learn about other universes. He also has his visitation catch-all if you wan to plan something!

[justmeheere]

Character: Jeremy Heere
Player: r
Round: 2
Summary:
After several months of hounding him and threatening to call Stephen about it, Riley convinced Jeremy to go to therapy so he doesn't try to put supercomputers in his brain when he's sad. He's [checks notes] just graduated high school and is gonna go to college somewhere for [squints at notes] Jeremy, you can't major in being a Twitch streamer! No, not even if Shilo joins you!
Looking for?: Who's joining him on stream? What's he putting on his TikTok? Who did a "look here comes a consequence" video with him? How many times has someone tried to get him to eat fake food bc he's just that dumb?

[itsfromjapan]

Character: The SQUIP (CD-H, "Squaro")
Player: r
Round: 2
Summary: "Why does the SQUIP get -" Because I said so. Anyway, CD currently spends most of its time racing NFT horses for bitcoin money to fund Jeremy's college education. It has become friends with Beetlejuice specifically because Jeremy hates it and participates in crime whenever people aren't looking. Don't worry about it!
Looking for?: Who's CD doing crime with? How much do other characters want to punt the little bastard? We simply don't know.

[recessives]

Character: Shilo Wallace
Player: Lyndon
Round: 2
Summary: So! Shilo went back with Anne of Cleves to New York, where she is currently understudy lady-in-waiting (probably?) for SIX the musical! She's gotten a lot better at playing the piano, and also the salary is pretty generous, which allows for things like "extensive physical therapy to recover from spending several years being poisoned." Back in October, she started dating K Howard! They have by now absolutely moved in together, and she just. Makes music and holds hands with a girl and is trying very hard to get her GED, probably, so she knows about things besides cool bugs and human anatomy. She has also absolutely learned how to ride a horf.

So far I've established that she visits Jeremy pretty regularly to talk about nerd shit and also they've made a mutual pact to go outside and like. Touch grass. She also probably visits a few other people? She's mostly been focusing on getting herself figured out, but she feels like she's actually doing that these days!
Looking for?: who wants to hang out with dear shilo she has muscle mass and real hair now!!!

[37773972]

therapy can in fact be productive, jeremy!!!!!

...also you can just say you're majoring in Media, it's acceptable.

[likemypicture]

Anne totally gets him out for some sunlight every now and then. She's not gonna overwhelm him by making him go to her show more than once but she can make up some bullshit errands to get him outside.

[37773972]

stephen absolutely sends squaro an email from time to time to ensure that it and jeremy are treating each other decently, ftr. Not that he doubts it, but just to check up on them.

[37773972]

What, starlight doesn't count?

...but he'd see her show a couple times so long as he's got someone he knows on either side. He's got at least three people to pick from. It wouldn't be hard.

And he probably realizes what she's doing, but A) He doesn't mind being the bag bitch B) SEVENTEEN YEARS

[likemypicture]

Anne asks him for tiktok advice. She can't risk being the least relevant queen again.

[likemypicture]

He's seen it more than anyone else. The other queens probably tease her about it, until the night where she accidentally tears her shorts off during don't lose ur head, and mephisto laughs harder than anyone else in the audience, then decks a guy behind him for laughing too.


the queens dont tease her anymore after that

[likemypicture]

Shilo def sees Anne of Cleves more than the rest of the cast on account of working together, tho Shilo may notice Mephisto's out there in the crowd an AWFUL LOT....

Anne completely loves Shilo, and tells everyone who will listen that Shilo's just one more thing K Howard stole from her, but she's okay with it.

[reassuranceandrevolution]

Character: Sigyn
Player: Sabra
Round: 2
Summary: Sigyn and Loki, reunited at the liminal Denny's, moved in with Mephisto and Stephen in their penthouse in New York. Probably the first to admit the four of them are actually in a polycule now after one very well planned out dinner that Loki ruined (and by ruined, we mean accelerated.)

Sigyn and Loki make regular trips to visit the others. These can be sporadic and short as Loki tires very easily and Sigyn is reluctant to go anywhere without her wife. The notable exception to this was a trip she went on with Anne to Germany.

Looking for?: Any trips to visit the others, including seeing shows, going to graduations, or just dropping by to grab dinner with them.

[mcfife]

Angus would love to invite her to Alternate Earth with all the Vikings and cool fantasy norse people and magic. But with less people trying to take over the world (for now). They can even talk shit about their respective villains!

[recessives]

listen it's valid he's valid the show slaps!!!

incredible. shilo also loves anne. she has never accidentally called her mom like she has absolutely accidentally called jane seymour mom, but. she loves anne so much.

[holyspit]

Character: Steven Universe
Player: Phas
Round: 2
Summary: Went back to Beach City cause it was kind of destroyed and he needed to help rebuild it and also fix the fairly literally dead earth underneath it. He's been SQUIPsitting and getting Little Homeworld up and running since then, and has managed to get therapy with at least 75% less unfortunate kaiju transformations to instigate it.
He probably hasn't had time for more than quick visits to other worlds but you bet he's kept in touch. All the R2's have probably received a slightly obscene number of self-made memes featuring Lion.
A few people probably know he's starting to entertain the idea of a cross-country roadtrip. All thirty-nine states, which has probably been a conversation starter all its own.
Looking for?: can I get uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh-

[holyspit]

Steven absolutely got suckered into NFT horse racing for a little bit because he wants to encourage non-evil hobbies, but then he found out how bad they are for the environment.

[holyspit]

Twitch stream of actual Sonic 06, y/n. "Phas that's not a co-op game" yes, but
Sonic 06 vs Sanic 2010? idk

[37773972]

Stephen 100% gets if Steven has some lingering anger towards him for however long, totally healthy.

...however, he'll edit any pics of Lion in to I Can Has Cheezburger type memes and send them right back.

[holyspit]

Oh he definitely does but, like, half his friends got there by trying to murder him, Stephen was just better at it. There's probably been a text convo or something that got unexpectedly deep and frank about it, it was probably awkward for a while, but he's as chill as can reasonably be expected about it.

WHoever Steven's therapist is they're not paid nearly enough
