Grady Numbers | Fargo (TV)

[dividingline]

Character Name: Grady Numbers
Age: 39.. ish. Somewhere in that area.
Employment in Deerington: None -- though he'll probably have to get one soon.
Residence in Deerington: Mostly (and somewhat reluctantly) at the cabin with wwrench, howlett, suchmiracles and speed_of_snark, but also in his mostly trashed apartment David Cliff when he has to go and hide somewhere.
Day to Day Activities: Grady's very slowly getting used to the idea of being part of Deerington, so he's still keeping himself on the edges of the more social parts of the town. He can mostly be found wasting his time doing the following:

▶ Hanging around Manes on Main, making himself "useful" by acting as low key security (i.e. eyeballing everyone who comes in over the top of whatever book he's reading that day), running errands and fetching coffee/lunch/dinner.
▶ Lurking at the bar in the fake Hair of the Dog. He's falling back on some old bad habits, so can be found there most days. It's rare that he actually gets drunk, he's mostly looking for somewhere that feels familiar. He's become a regular at Deerly Diner for similar reasons.

About This Character: Grady was raised in and around the Fargo crime syndicate, along with Wrench, his partner in everything. They're childhood friends who fell into a bad crowd and never got out of it -- or at least Grady didn't, since he (SPOILERS) died while on a hit that went deeply wrong. He spent his entire life until that point up to the eyeballs in violence, kidnapping, extortion, and all the trauma and mundane weirdness that comes with working for the mob. He has a tendency for self-destruction and being a constant thorn in everyone's side, but hey, if you want someone killed or run out of town, there's no better guy to ask.

Any Warnings: Grady comes from a violent canon with adult themes. He's also a wanted criminal. His comments/plots may contain references to murder, gang violence, torture, criminal activity, major injuries including throat trauma, alcohol/substance abuse, sexual themes and death.

Present Life: There are two significant positives for being in Deerington for Grady: one, he's no longer dead. Two, Wrench is here. That's about it. He's been told to try and look at his second chance at life as an opportunity to make things better or be a better person, but a lifetime of expecting (or wanting) the worst out of people is making that difficult.

He arrived in Deerington in time to experience both the Titanic and Rapture and didn't do very well at coping with either, ending up on a backslide into substance abuse that ended with him stabbing John Blake in the side (sorry, dude) and generally going to a pretty dark place. Since coming back, he's decided to try to pick up the pieces and at least attempt to make amends, because he's starting to realise that he might be stuck in this place for good, and maybe there are worse things than death..

Future Ideas: If he's going to survive in Deerington, Grady's going to need to come out of his shell, so I'd like to find some ways for that to happen. This will probably mean he'll have to hit a pretty hard rock bottom first, though. I'd like for him to find a little stability and start exploring the idea of living a life that isn't constantly on the run, as well as coming to terms with the fact that whatever happens in Deerington isn't going to last once he leaves. This isn't his second chance -- this is, in many ways, his only chance.

CR You Want: Grady's a tough nut to crack in many ways, but I'd love for him to find some kind of friendship (a new and exciting concept for him). Some other possible ideas for his CR:

▶ People he can grate against without causing too much trouble. If you can withstand his attempts to make you regret being around him, he'll cling to you like driftwood in a stormy sea. He's never really learned how to be a decent person let alone have a relationship with someone that's not built around violence in some way, so things might be rocky before they even out.
▶ Victims! I'm always interested in making Grady's life worse, so if you're looking for a way to kill someone (or put out a hit), here's your man.
▶ I'd love to explore a bit of law-abiding/criminal tension -- Grady's a murderer many times over and he doesn't feel particularly sorry about that fact. Maybe this can be a fun source of difficulty for him!
▶ Self-destruction buddies! Let's backslide together! Depending on what else is going on, Grady is going to be drawn to the kinds of people he can fuck around with (literally or figuratively).
▶ If you're feeling brave, it would be great to find some role models for him, or at least someone who's happy to kick his ass until he makes something decent out of himself.

CR You Don't Want: Romantically he's got everything he needs right now. Otherwise I'm pretty open!

ofc I want all your characters! Peter is a completely normal person who has never met a mutant, but he knows what X-Men is.

Bucky is happy to be fucked with by Grady, as well as annoy him, do CRIMEZ with him, and generally think he's a cool person in spite of all the... evidence to the... contrary LOL

And ofc Bucky flirting with Kurt just to get back at Logan
