#like they don't even want. to be in valorant. in my head. theyre just there so OE doesn't fucking kidnap them

[sovaharbor]

anyways that one post i rb'd a few days ago that was like "don't use ai art to make your ocs use picrew like god intended" or whatever spoke to me. and. well. i've had a valorant oc just kinda sitting around in my head for a while now and i decided yeah fuck it i can finally expand on it. the fact it took me THIS long to really make an oc for a series i'm obsessed with is kinda shocking. tbh. but here we are.

anyways their callsign is tempo. i don't have a real name for them yet but they're from italy. italians are now canon in valorant

they're a radiant with time-based abilities. i think within just regular lore context, it's Very powerful, probably on neon's level of "damn this could be actually very fucking dangerous" -- i'm thinking slowing, speeding up, pausing, potentially even time travel if given the time to develop and train their powers. within the game's context though, probably only slowing/speeding up. i think full-on pausing would be miserable and probably not something valorant would have in-game? so. yeah.

the harder part though is the Lore of it all... in my head i have this really crazy idea of omega earth tempo being dead. like, freak accident with their powers dead, thanks to the legion. so now the legion is trying to storm alpha earth and steal alpha earth tempo, because they want alpha earth tempo to essentially reverse things for omega earth & bring them back to a point in time where the radianite crisis isn't nearly as severe, but AE tempo is rightfully terrified because they 1) don't have good enough control of their powers yet, and 2) DON'T WANT TO POTENTIALLY DIE ANYWAY.

but then you can't really reconcile that within the game context. &, so, part of me is like well! not like tempo will ever exist in the game anyway! might as well just go all out with the lore! BUT OTOH I LOVE MAKING OCS AND JUST *FITTING* THEM INTO CANON, YKWIM? so...double-edged sword. i suppose it'd be kinda cool for tempo to exist within the game as, like. maybe just someone in the training range? maybe they could speed up / slow down training bots or something silly like that, idk.

#oc: tempo #summer's text tag #also the white hair is like. a play on 1) almost every radiant in valorant having colored hair. #and 2) time... age... elderly people get grey/white hair as they age... #i also picture tempo having a very monochromatic color scheme which i think really goes against the younger agents of the protocol #like pretty much all the younger agents have BRIGHT stand-out designs #but then older agents tend to be more subdued #and in my head it's just to communicate the way tempo's very closed off & how they want to fade into the background more #like they don't even want. to be in valorant. in my head. theyre just there so OE doesn't fucking kidnap them

all of the relationship ones for Pua and Jett :)

sighs *cracks knuckles* okay here we go

1. What were their first impressions of one another?

i feel like they would have had some kind of enemies to lovers thing going on yk ?? like both of them are really arrogant..... pua is a little more Mean ™️ and probably flirted by insulting her n shit LMAOOOO

2 .What was their first date like? If they haven’t been on a date yet, how would it go?

since they are both in the protocol, their first date is at the valorant hq. i bet they were both hella awkward too like 😭😭sitting in the dining hall awkwardly trying to talk to eachother now that they know they both have feelings for eachother LMAOOOO

3. It’s late at night and your characters want food, what do they order/find in the fridge?

idk if doordash or ubereats delivers to the val hq so i bet they both sneak down to the kitchens and try and make food together, theyre giggling and shushing each other and they most definitely get caught each time KJSDLHSD

4. What’s a typical Sunday like for them?

if they don't have any missions, lazy day. they're hanging out in comfy clothes together for the day, watching tv in one of their dorms or vibing with the other agents somewhere <33

5. What’s their love language like? Are they compatible with one another?

imo, jett's love languages are words of affirmation and physical touch and pua's are acts of service and quality time. pua is NOT good at articulating her words in a positive way. i feel like at the beginning of their relationship (and at the end until pua fucks up) they have a lot of issues with communication

6. Do they have any pet names/nicknames for eachother?

as i said, pua does NOT do well with positive words, so her petnames are almost always teasing even if she's meaning them in a romantic way. probably doesn't use any of the typical "babe" "darling" "honey" (although before they started dating, she would call jett those as a way to tease her but jett would ALWAYS flip it back on her to make her flustered KJHDSFSLD)

i like to think that jett uses lots of petnames <33 probably korean ones as well !! leans towards "bub" and "babe" i feel

7. What do they argue about?

i feel like they argue about small things a lot, like pua being pua she's thoughtless and does a lot of stupid shit she probably is the cause of a lot of their arguments

8. Who does what chores, and why?

split it evenly !! they like doing everything together, chores is no different <3

9. What’s the most difficult thing they’ve been through together?

mua lan's death. this was jett's first taste in seeing pua recede into herself

10. How do they make up after a fight?

along with being nice in any capacity, pua struggles with apologies. she probably will show up at jett's dorm a few hours after the fight with her head down and ears tucked and jett'll know that she feels sorry SDFKJFH

11. Who causes the most arguments?

pua.

12. What would they say each other’s worst quality is?

pua would say that jett's worst quality is her arrogance (while being arrogant herself the lil shit) and jett would say that pua's is her temper

13. What would they say each other’s best quality is?

pua would say that jett's best quality is her compassion, which is usually shown in odd ways due to jett's MASSIVE ego but pua loves it nonetheless and jett would say that pua's best quality is her loyalty

14. How would they describe one another if asked?

pua: "she's... great. a little stupid and a bit of a loser sometimes when she decides to be a reckless little shit but other than that, she's caring and funny and... why are you asking me this anyway?"

jett: *counting on her fingers* "angry, mean, a little shit, quick to cause problems. buuut.... my petal? she's strong as hell, smart, and she's funny. i love being around her"

15. What names are they saved as on each other’s phone?

pua: wind loser 🏳️‍🌈❤️‍🔥

jett: MY flower girl <3

16. What would they consider quality time?

quality time is just being around eachother, honestly. they just like to sit together, sometimes in silence, sometimes fucking around and playing games- they just like to be in eachother's presence tbh

17. Who decides which movies to watch?

jett, because pua can't resist jett 200% of the time

18. How are they like on a road trip together?

pda TO THE MAX. literally sitting on top of eachother in the car, people are booing them, they are so clingy and inseparable its a problem

19. It’s raining, did either of your OCs bring an umbrella? If so, who, and do they share it?

knowing them, both of them forgot but oh shit now they're just kissing in the rain oh no

20. What are they like when sharing a bed?

cuddle central. it was probably SUPER awk before they started dating bc they both wanted to be cuddling but now they can and they do <3

21. Who is better at games? Does the loser take it graciously?

they're both really really good and it just fuels both of their competitiveness, i think its really fun to watch them play things bc theyre both really good

22. Do they ever share clothes?

oh all the time. either on purpose or its one of them stealing the other's clothes they always steal shit from each other akjhdfslsd

23. Your OCs are on a trip and there’s only one bed! What do they do?

they share <3

24. What do your characters think about marriage? Are they for or against it?

being in the protocol, i don't think it's really crossed either of their minds. they are just together, they love each other, and that is what matters.

25. Pick a physical attribute that they love about each other.

pua loves jett's smile. jett loves pua's hands

26. Do any of them have bad habits that the other can’t stand?

they both strike me as people who are messy but organized in their own ways, and this probably equally annoys the other

27. Who is more down to earth?

jett honestly

28. Are they affectionate in public? Is it too much?

oh yeah for sure. excessive pda people are always yelling at them

29. How are they affectionate in private?

always always always

30. How does your OC react to being broken up with?

well since pua does break things off with jett after issues arise.... she does not handle it well, and neither does jett

31. Do they fall in love easily?

i don't think either of them are the type to fall easily, which is why i love their relationship so so much

32. Your character is in love, do they confess? If not, how long do they wait?

pua probably confessed, it was probably supposed to be some stupid quippy remark but it was also a confession like "you're so stupid it's a miracle i fell in love with you" or something stupid like that KSDFJHSDFLKSDF she probably would never have confessed if it wasnt for this lbr

33. Who was the first to say ‘I love you’?

^^^^^

34. Who is more stubborn?

PUA. PUA LMAOO

35. What moment did they realise that they were in love?

i think for pua she found herself really thinking about jett whenever she was trying to calm herself down. whenever she felt her emotions start to flame up, whenever she felt anger pulse in her chest she would think of jett's smile and she was like oh fuck

36. How long have they been friends? Would they consider each other best friends?

i feel like they were fast friends after pua joined the protocol. they were only friends for like 8 months before getting together

37. How did they become friends?

when pua joined the protocol!

38. Who’s more ticklish?

i like to think that jett is very very ticklish and pua abuses this fact

40. What do they do when they miss one another? Is one more needy than the other/s?

pua is really clingy, so when jett isn't around she complains and sulks

42. Have they ever been jealous?

i feel like pua gets constantly jealous when jett gets flirty with phoenix or calls him pretty boy

43. Is one more introverted/extroverted than the other?

they are both VERY extroverted LMAO

44. Who’s the better cook?

jett SDKFJHSLFD

45. Are they good at comforting one another? Does someone hide their feelings usually?

i think neither of them are that good at showing emotions or trying to convey their feelings, so they have their own ways of comforting eachother (like jett will send pua stupid snapchats when shes sad and pua will always try and send stupid memes to jett when she's sad)

i feel like since pua leans very heavily on jett for support, jett will feel the need to hide her feelings to support her (which is not good)

46. Would they have been friends with each other in school?

yes. yes i want them to be

47. Who made the first move?

i feel like there was a lot of flirty teasing until SOMEONE *coughs * pua *coughs* fucked up

48. Do they get on well with each other’s family? Is family important to them?

i don't think they had the chance to meet each other's family

49. Do they tease each other? What about?

oh all the time about literally everything and anything

50. Is there anything that scares them about their friendship/relationship?

sometimes pua is still nervous about the whole "dont fraternize with other agents" thing but as long as she knows that jett still loves her she's fine and dandy <3
