New player, +1 incredibly gay time traveling Brit who is NOT the Doctor?
So, hey, folks, my name is Terry, you can also find me at
inkblotted, and I have been lured to this game inadvertently by the marvelous Gowa (Vilari, Ezio, and one of the bat boys). I am bringing this fellow from a somewhat obscure canon - he is from the podcast the Thrilling Adventure Hour, more specifically the segment The Cross-Time Adventures of Colonel Tick-Tock. He is exceedingly British in the most stereotypical of ways (as he is written by Americans and voiced by one, who are specifically aiming to make him comedically English) and is a bit of a riff on the Doctor and other time travelers of the Whoverse, though he is also his own weird thing.
Player-wise, I am a pushing-forty mother of a toddler and also a doctor (though not a physician, I have my doctorate in nursing practice, and will be working soon as a nurse practitioner and primary care provider in a small family clinic). Currently I am working nights as an RN, though, as I prepare to take my licensure exam, so I may be about at odd hours.
I think that's it, other than I am super excited to join you guys!

Welcome to the game, Terry! I'm Cal and I play this piece of fluff otome protagonist, Mai.
I hope you have a great time here, and welcome again!

I'm Thomas, dastonyth on plurk (friending now!), and I play Armin Arlert from Attack on Titan.
I'm a 23 year old physicist who just graduated and is currently traveling Europe, so I'll have odd hours as well :)
Welcome to Synodiporia!

8 million kinds of impressed with your dedication to becoming a Nurse Practitioner - that's awesome. Nursing and being a provider are both so cool and so difficult to me. (I'm a trainer for schedulers for our local healthcare conglomerate and used to be a floating scheduler.)

I just play this dork, (AU) Kanji from Persona 4. Hope you have fun!

So excited to play with Leo and have Tick-Tock have all these weird memories of him he doesn't know about.

And congrats on your recent graduation! Whereabouts have you been/are you going in Europe? (May I recommend Munich?)

Oh, man, scheduling is this weird and arcane skill in and of itself, in my experience. And thank you, it's part dedication, and part I just really, really enjoy that role, at least I have in my clinicals. It's a job that's never boring.

I'm not super familiar with Persona, but I was immediately caught by your icons for Kanji in the TDM and the liminal post - I will definitely have to find reasons to interact!

Thanks! And I meant to go to Munich, but didn't have the time/ energy to go through it. I was studying abroad in Turkey, and since leaving Cesme on a ferry, I've been to Chios, Athens, and Thessaloniki in Greece, Sofia in Bulgaria, Vienna, Salzburg, and Fuschl in Austria, and Bratislava in Slovakia. I plan on visiting Mauthausen today, and over the next five and a half weeks will be visiting CERN at Geneva, Switzerland, Paris, visit Dublin for a day and take a 6 day guided tour of Ireland and Northern Ireland, visit friends and every country in the UK for a couple weeks, and visit friends in Sittard, Netherlands, Vaasa, Finland, and Skyttorp, Sweden (just outdside Stockholm) before I fly back to the US.

Icons caught your eye, huh? Honestly, I need to do the paid account thing again, I'm just down to this last set at the moment. XD But hee, glad you like them anyway, and it'll definitely be cool to interact!

(The only way I'm managing this long is staying with rp friends nearly every step of the way, though - otherwise I wouldn't have the money.)

But thank you! And I think it's equally fabulous that you're playing from a podcast, I'm going to have to check it out for listening to during my daily commutes.

As for the Thrilling Adventure Hour, it is amazing and hilarious and fabulous, though there are also 200+ episodes. I highly recommend it, but if you are looking for Tick-Tock episodes, there are only ten: 16, 31, 45, 73, 87, 100, 120, 154, 160, and 174. There are various storylines for TAH, and Tick-Tock has one of the side segments, so he doesn't get a ton of air time. On the other hand, it makes his canon easier to remember!

I'm actually doing the same thing when I get back to the US, only I'm traveling mostly on $1 megabus tickets, so I've nearly cut out transportation and housing costs. So I get to meet lots of people and then apply for jobs all over the country along the way.

And dang, smart way to look for work!
