Chase

Noli me tangere. ~ John 20:17 Background Chase is a lifelong assistant, doing a wide variety of data entry, secretarial, and bureaucratic jobs. Skilled, efficient.... but undeniably not a people-person. Her constant fear of touching and being touched keeps her literally *and* figuratively at arm's length, and her social anxieties make maneuvering through life a hassle. After being rendered nearly unhireable from one little 'oops', Chase has finally managed to settle in to a job, being trained as a Personal Assistant. Little by little, that shell is cracking, and little by little, Chase is finding herself exploring things she'd never considered exploring. Anxiety may not just 'go away', but learning to work *with* it has her able to branch out into places she'd never thought she'd be. Sure, she may never be 'just like everybody else'... but maybe it's time to start embracing that. Just a little. RP Hooks The Paperwork Rules: Chase has worked secretarial work for many years. It's possible that she's worked with you, for you, or at least around you in one or more temp jobs. Assistant-In-Training: Her latest job, being trained as a Personal Assistant, often has her running odd-jobs for her boss. These odd jobs can bring her to almost any location with an easy excuse, even if it's literally just practice for her to be interacting with someone in a professional fashion. Our Way: Chase runs a website called 'Our World, Our Way', for office workers and other lower-level employees. If you're famous, or a Boss Man, there might be gossip about you that could open the conversation! If you're *of* those people, maybe you're a member! No Touching: Chase is extremely phobic about physical contact. Something as simple as bumping into her, brushing against her, or instinctively grabbing her hand when she's not ready, can get quite the dramatic (and noticeable!) reaction. Exposure Therapy: In order to work on her anxiety, more and more Chase seems to be branching out and exploring locations and events. Expect to see her cringing in a corner or trying to stammer her way through greetings, but practice, practice, practice. Need an excuse to talk to her? Page me and *she* can be the one to make the approach, practicing her introductions! CLASSIFIED (Behind The Curtain) Card Shark: Do you enjoy illegal gambling and card games? Might you be the sort to hang around a gambling den, or get a night of poker together? Chase might just be around to join in the games. Bit of a mystery: she doesn't win often enough to be good, wins *too* often to be bad, doesn't seem to get 'lucky' enough to be a *proper* shark, but she's better than someone with Zero Chill (tm) *should* be. Contacts Averill - A man I look up to, in nearly every sense of the word. Fortitude - Shared loss makes strange bedfellows. Although I don't think you're *that* strange. Maya - Don't forget what happened to the man who suddenly got everything he always wanted... Nick Steele - The things you taught I will carry with me until the day I die. Wolfe - An ally worth keeping. More cunning and dangerous than he lets on. Logs No logs found!
