gs_silva: Cathy saying cool (cool)
[personal profile] gs_silva
In case anyone wants to borrow Alien Romance for a crossover with their own characters, or just play around in their universe:

The year is 1990. The place is Midwestern USA. Maurice, the son of immigrants who grew up in the family store in a rural county, has married Cathy, a struggling artist from an intellectual family in Lyon, France. They're learning each other's languages, and live together in a 4th-floor walk-up apartment with Ren, Maurice's very tall childhood friend, who is in a pre-med program.

Maurice drives a truck all day and in the evening he's a guitarist in a band.

Cathy doesn't have a work permit, nor any sense of how to run a household, but she tries to support her new husband and all his oddball friends in ways that they don't necessarily understand.

There is an alien, and some ghosts, and a lot of questionable decisions as this group of young misfits try to navigate the end of the 20th century without any guidance. It's kind of a period piece, so if you grew up then too, you'll have plenty to reminisce about, and if you showed up later, you're welcome along for the ride.

Yay!
