canondisasterbiHello! I am RIDICULOUS and have traded one Roswell New Mexico character for another. Rosa O has headed home to support her sister through her final season magic alien drug rehab, and a shiny, freshly pre-canon Michael Guerin is soon to arrive!
Let's meet him, shall we?
This is Michael Guerin! He's a low-down, no-good, black-hat-wearing modern cowboy with a chip on his shoulder and crimes on his mind!
Well, in his mind anyway. Or, as he likes to put it:
Because Michael, you see, is an alien. This is something he'll actively try to keep secret for . . . honestly, probably not super long, since, like, half the town proudly brags about being from somewhere or somewhen else and having super powers.
Michael was raised "in the system" in and around Roswell, after hatching at the apparent age of seven from a glowing pod out in the desert a full 50 years after his parents' spaceship famously crashed. His two fellow aliens, Max and Isobel Evans, got scooped up by a loving family, but he got ditched. Hence the chip on his shoulder. He's been convinced he's fundamentally worthless for most of his life. So . . . yes, basically I was destined to play him andshould have known better than to try to lean away from type with Rosa.
Michael will be arriving without ceremony, his Airstream trailer mysteriously managing to make its way from Fosters Ranch in New Mexico to the Fandom Junkyard while he sleeps of a beer-and-acetone cocktail (acetone being an intoxicant/painkiller for his species; hey Summer, think you can whip up an acetone jello shot?). He'll wake up, be entirely nonplussed, and eventually settle into running the junkyard while he tries to work out how he ended up teleported across the continent and apparently through dimensions.
He may or may not build himself a lair in the tunnels under the island. Probably depends on how many secret experiments he decides to run.
Because, yeah, Michael is also an engineering genius who has been secretly trying to rebuild a spaceship under the junkyard in Roswell, so why wouldn't he try the same thing around here?
Oh, also, his journal name is very descriptive. The man is very openly bisexual.
And canonically gets to have multi-episode arcs with men and women. (Well, man and woman, he's not nearly as slutty as his reputation.)
And he is 100% a complete disaster.
I am really, really hoping he manages to get regularly into bar fights and/or picked up by the troopers. Don't all you cop types want something to do?? So if your character wants to get into it with him, they are highly encouraged. HMU.
[it took me like 20 minutes just to get this to post functionally, so you know what? THE TYPOS ARE STAYING.]
