This is a sideblog, and I follow back from my main @grimmusings. Please direct IMs there, since it's easier for me to keep all my messages on one blog. It's also easier to start interactions with me there, where I regularly post open starters and meme prompts. For a full list of rules, see my main. Honesty hour questions will largely be answered IC and treated as anonymous unless signed by a muse.

All details vary based on verse, but in general I pull Karolina from Earth-616 comics, specifically in Rainbow Rowell's run where she's either attending college or rejoining the Runaways after Gert's resurrection. Karolina is an alien from the planet Majesdane who was raised on Earth to believe she was human until her teenage years, when her parents tried to sacrifice humanity to an ancient cult called the Gibborim but were stopped by Karolina and the other Runaways. I do not pull her characterization or storyline from the show, but I'm happy to write with those muses.

wanted connections:

This is by no means a comprehensive list, and I can roll with most muses as far as basic interactions. I’m happy to ship Karolina with other comics characters and OCs/fandom crossovers based on chemistry, but unless they’re on my OTP list, they need plotting and interaction first. There is never any pressure to ship with me, even if they’re on my list. Please note that I write Karolina as homosexual, as supported by her canon, and I only ship her with female muses.

OTPs: Nico Minoru, Julie Power, Megan Gwynn Runaways: Chase Stein, Gertrude Yorkes, Molly Hayes, Victor Mancha, Gib, Xavin, Alex Wilder Other: Kara Danvers or Conner Kent (they have similar powers, she'd be fascinated)

default verses:

616: Karolina's main verse, typically set in Rowell's run, where she reunites with the Runaways and struggles with whether or not she wants to live a hero's lifestyle or have a normal life. Due to the Avengers breaking up the Runaways and sending them to foster care, she doesn't have a very positive experience with most heroes.

college!verse: Before the Runaways reunite, Karolina is attending college in Los Angeles and trying to live down the trauma of her parents' evil. Although she gets residual checks from her mother's soap operas, she also works as a barista.
