Gossip/CR Hooks Meme

Are there people your characters are talking about all the time? Gossip they're always sharing? Someone they just fucking hate in a way they don't or can't hide? Welcome to the gossip meme y'all, where you might find some CR hooks. Format shamelessly stolen from the Handwaved CR memes.

1. Post a comment with your character's name & cabin number in the header, and give us an idea of who they talk about and in what contexts. Be as vague or specific as you like!

2. If you're up for it talk about why they think these things of other characters so people might have an idea of what they heard about them/the implications they can glean about that relationship.

3. Profit! (And maybe you can grab some threads; does your character hate being talked about? Enemies escalate their shit because Keep My Name The Fuck Out Of Your Mouth? Just think a particular bit of gossip might be more fun to do IC?)

Well April already failed to get anything from Ossie that time they tried to ask him about Erin, so believe it or not she might be the only one immune from Ossie chat times because a) he clearly already knows her b) fine two can play at this game c) though April has been tempted to ask about why Erin's so quick to offer permission to attempt violence on her as a way of comforting people. They haven't, partly because that might be more serious personal emotions and history than April has the capacity to care about but MOSTLY because they don't want to be kicked out of Ossie's cottage which is what's going to happen if they get stuck in a conversation loop again.

April's probably described Erin to Arthur as someone nosey and probably do-goody with the focused concern on the community's wellbeing, but is big and strong enough to put money where her mouth is at least. For the sake of the bit, accidentally doesn't mention that Erin's also blind and definitely leaves out the changeling thing. Potentially didn't even name names either if this happened before April and Erin's second meeting.

Post second meeting (and in general), if asked April's probably going to describe Erin as 'wears a blindfold, often armed, wants to keep the ""community"" safe, probably fuckoff tough, if you start shit with her please do it in my line of sight so I can have a chuckle, thanks'
