We all love smashing our characters in the face with Echoes, right? And yet, rarely do we have the opportunity to ramble about what they actually think about them and/or just what the hell they assume is really going on...!

RIGHT HERE IS THAT CHANCE. Fill out the below for each of your dudez or ladiez, then comment around with your own thoughts or offers to help with future plans or whatever. Hell, post ICly too, if you want! 8Db

Character: Francis Fell (Aziraphale from Good Omens)
How long they've been in game: Only 8 days~!
When or how long ago their first Echo was: About two weeks prior to acceptance (beginning of August), when he hit a student on their bicycle with his car at night.
How many total they've received so far: Two.

What do they think of their Echos?: Francis is currently trying to fervently deny that he even had a first echo, since the echo inspired in him great apology and kindness towards those he's wronged. (He doesn't really like to do nice things for people, he's a terrible cynic about it, so feeling that amount of sympathy and apology bothers him.) Also as a skeptic, even if he were to accept that he's had a change of heart, he wouldn't chalk it up to reincarnation magic or anything. Recently, though, his handwriting has drastically changed from its messy scrawly print to a more cursive handwriting, and it's gotten to the point where his signature is entirely different as well. He's gotten in trouble because of this, actually; his bank has recently contacted him, suspecting someone had very blatantly forged his signature on checks and documents he'd signed. Right now, he isn't sure what to make of that whole mess, and needs to investigate it further. He'll probably bring it up to the network later.

And on other things?: Francis doesn't want to believe a single thing going on, though he's been scared by a few other reincarnates with freaky abilities, to the point where he went drinking to try and forget some of what he saw. Right now he's in stark denial, though that's sure to change soon enough. He's too paranoid to even touch the network right now, but will definitely resort to it once something freakish and supernatural occurs to him like, say, a run-in with a monster (or werewolf or vampire or angel or whatever other supernatural things are lurking around.)

Any plans for them in the future?: I'm planning to have his next echo be the desire to never sleep; in canon Aziraphale never slept on principle that he always wanted to be fully aware and ready for good deeds (because "Evil never sleeps, and virtue is ever vigilant!") This will translate more into Francis being more paranoid than vigilant, and not wanting to sleep for reasons even he can't explain outside of 'It feels like I shouldn't be sleeping.' He'll still be ABLE to sleep, he'll just feel extremely uncomfortable doing it, to the point where he'll wake himself up only hours later. He'll probably have to see a doctor... As a follow-up echo, I'm going to be a little less evil and grant him the ability to not REQUIRE sleep, so he'll be able to function again. And also it'll blow his skepticism out the window after he stays awake for a week straight with absolutely no side effects.

I have a lot of other ideas for echoes, events, etc. but they're all for the distant future! I'm going to wait and see how well they'll fit in with the overarching plot and also any of the CR I make.
