INFO
Character Name: Bro (Dirk) Strider
Age: 31
General Notes: Bro is always wearing his Kamina-esque shades and gloves. The rest of his outfit doesn't change much, either - a relatively tight-fitting white shirt, black pants, and black shoes. While his katana is usually hidden within his strife specibus, he can call it from there at a moment's notice; functionally, this means he can make his katana appear out of thin air at will.
Bro is super homosexual. No qualifiers. Just straight up gay. In various shades of denial about letting other people know it, though, on a sliding scale from 0 (alpha Dirk) to GAY JOKES ARE SO IRONIC (beta Dave).
PERMISSIONS
Touch:
→ Hugging? Sure, although he's not the type to initiate.
→ Kissing? If you're a guy, he's probably down. If you're a girl, he's probably not.
→ Flirting? Hell yes, with men and women.
→ Sexing? Only with guys. Also, expect some awkwardness. He's been out of the sex and dating game for awhile, doing the fraternal parenting thing.
→ Fighting? Please god yes.
→ Injuring? Sure, but Bro is a seriously good fighter. We'd definitely need to talk how they'd measure up.
→ To what extent can I harm your character? Anything short of permanent maiming/killing is fine, but please talk it over with me first!
Triggers:
→ Inherent content warnings: Internalized homophobia, graphic/sexual/politically incorrect language, violence, child abuse - Bro has been hiding his homosexuality behind a thick smokescreen of dudebro for a long time. Further, he's got a habit of deadpanning the most sexualized metaphors you've ever heard. Usually involving dicks. There's nothing Freudian about it shut up. And he loves to fight. It's usually just sparring, however. The child abuse both factors into how he raised Dave - though it was never intended to be abusive, it was pretty seriously unhealthy - and is occasionally implied in Bro's backstory that he Doesn't Talk About.
→ IC issues to avoid? Nothing specific!
→ Character-specific triggers/squicks? Bro didn't really have the best childhood. He doesn't like to talk about it and will pretty much cut off any inquiries in that direction. Possibly with his sword.
→ Are any character-specific triggers/squicks strictly off-limits? Nope! I just list them so people are aware they exist, whether to avoid them or to specifically aim for them.
