Troy "Butt Soup" Barnes is from the hit show Community, which I have been binging again like it's the early 2010s all over again since it finally got released on Netflix. He'll be coming from a slightly adjusted pre-canon where he gets himself injured doing a keg flip (which is MUCH more difficult than a keg stand) before his senior year, and therefor, can no longer be the Star Quarterback of his high school and gets sent to a new school by his somewhat overprotective mother (who told him that everyone is ten for two years because fifth grade is really hard) so he doesn't have to deal with the shame and embarrassment for two more years of failure, unaware that he actually injured himself on purpose because he didn't want to deal with all that pressure, anyway.
He is going to be so stoked to find out that this school doesn't even have a football team.
He is, however, very used to being Incredibly Popular and it's Kind of a Big Deal for him, or, at least, it will be until he gets a little more comfortable, enough to sort of chill and embrace the Very Big Nerd settled underneath that letterman jacket. Though he tries to project an image of unflappable confidence and coolness, he is mostly just overcompensating for his very potent sense of self-doubt and self-consciousness. It probably doesn't help that he had it pretty easy at his last school, and will realize that coasting on his football popularity isn't going to cut it, especially in a school with no football. He's also pretty dumb, with some often very naively innocent views of the world ("He thinks all dogs are boys and all cats are girls." "There's no way to disprove that!"), and he does sort of at least know that he's not the sharpest tool in the shed, and sometimes, when he sees a way to turn a situation to his advantage, he'll do it, even if it's not the most ethical thing. Once he gets past his constant determination to project a certain view about himself, though, he can be an incredibly loyal friend who's usually eager to help in even the craziest of situations, like an adorable dumb puppy but in human form.
Although he tries his best to keep it cool, he is an incredlby emotional person and will let loose his emotions (HIS EMOTIONS) in an epic and unbridled way at times. And he's got a facial expression range that'll give Alexis a run for her muppet-face money. Don't even get us started on the Forrest Whittaker eye.

Other than that, he's pretty much just your typical high school cool jock with a heart of gold, a particular affinity for butt stuff, a weird natural gift for fixing things with the mere wave of a single wrench, and a desire to just be genuinely liked.

Don't eat the crab dip! yea, yay!

*Human
*From the Radch, Outer space somewhere
*Played by Willow Smith
*Townie/Alumni, class of 2019
*from the same canon as
1000yearstoolate and
justice_undone, but a muuuuch different spot in the timeline
*Which can make living with
justice_undone underneath Groovy Tunes a little awkward
*Also works at Groovy Tunes
*Has very noticeable bright lilac eyes
*Also has all the memories of a 1000s year old tyrant that hijacked her brain in an effort to destroy
justice_undone. Again, with the awkward.
*Has adapted to wearing contemporary clothes, but will always be wearing gloves. It's a Radchaai thing.
*Mostly androgynous, but tends to present female with feminine pronouns, though is biologically male, and does not understand for the life of her why this is even a thing of note in this galaxy.
*Is picky about her tea, but not as much as
1000yearstoolate
*Still sort of just finding her place here, but she'd rather be home trying to take down the Empire via giving AI sentience, thanks.

*Which is super awkward, with the whole Dragon Knight thing
*Student, class of 2022

*Which is ironic, because she comes from a place of endless rain
*Is a large rat with odd proportions who usually wears a very noticeable red jacket and tall hat combo
*Is usually jumping on things instead of just using the goddamn stairs
*Is a Dragon Knight/dragoon, meaning she's really good at fighting dragons and throwing spears
*Is the first female Dragon Knight ever, it's kind of a Big Deal.
*Is searching for her lost love and mentor, Sir Fratley. Will not find him any time soon. It will not go well when she does.
*Definitely needs to be played more.
*Still thinks it's weird that there are so many humans here

L.S., Queen of the Buttfaces, Real Life.
*ME, the mun
*36 years old

*Prone to burn out and kind of a spaz about communication but is working on it
*Has two dumb Siamese cats that are definitely not inspiration for Pancakes
*Is almost a little too down for pretty much anything *cough*
Note to self: if I did these more often, it would not take me literal hours to compile them when I feel so inclined. But anyway! Please let me know if there's any questions or whatever or just hit me up with gifs while I probably go binge more Community for the rest of the day.

Troy "Butt Soup" Barnes is from the hit show Community, which I have been binging again like it's the early 2010s all over again since it finally got released on Netflix. He'll be coming from a slightly adjusted pre-canon where he gets himself injured doing a keg flip (which is MUCH more difficult than a keg stand) before his senior year, and therefor, can no longer be the Star Quarterback of his high school and gets sent to a new school by his somewhat overprotective mother (who told him that everyone is ten for two years because fifth grade is really hard) so he doesn't have to deal with the shame and embarrassment for two more years of failure, unaware that he actually injured himself on purpose because he didn't want to deal with all that pressure, anyway.
