The Relation-By-Reincarnation Meme

[scramasax]

Hello, current Earthlings and potential appers alike!

How'd it be if your deadbeat father, school-age daughter, or ex-lover turned up on the network?

Come on in and use this meme to list notable friends, relatives, acquaintances, etc. of your characters or characters who you plan on bringing in who are available to turn out to be fellow reincarnates! Give basic necessary descriptions and information of the people in question (so, say, your character from a strict household doesn't wind up getting a mother who is by nature as impossibly laid-back as they come!) and plan as you like with others!

Julien's family is all Caucasian-Asian mutts, so ethnicity's a factor! I've written about family history before, but details are not set in stone.

His father, Mr. Argentan, is very rich, a businessman with political things going on, bigger in Canada, and a smiling charming social asshole who tends to be somewhat emotionally abusive. Jules has at least one sibling, that one being a half-brother living with Mr. Argentan now who could be anywhere from 23 to 18. I daydream that this brother turns out to be the reincarnation of Yuuya's brother Sakuya.

His mother Isbeau lives in Connecticut with her husband. She's kind of standoffish about Jules since he's grown up to look and sound a lot like his dad. She was very naive when she married Argentan but has since become rather cynical and wary of attempts to control her.

Julien lives currently with his sister Cecelia (Cece) and her daughter Valerie (Val). Cece is four or five years older than Jules and decidedly more mature. She can tease but is somewhat more serious, and she's the real breadwinner at a steady job that involves a degree in engineering; she owns some lab coats and has a reputation for not tolerating sexual harassment. She's concerned about her brother and knows something about the network since Jules can't lie to her, but hasn't asked much. She's been busy at work and since she doesn't know much it doesn't seem hugely serious.

Val is about three or four and I'd rather she wasn't a reincarnate, but I've never come up with details about her father beyond that he doesn't live with them, so... really, he could be anyone and have just about any relationship with the Sakazakis.

Finally, Julien has moved around a lot over his lifetime and just spent too long at some good out-of-Locke colleges. He's very social and had a lot of gfs and bfs in college, so friends (mostly casual) and exes are always an option!
