State of Me: Distracted, to cut it short. There's work and I'm trying to figure out how to make the business grow. There's spare time, which I fill with plenty of telly and knitting as well as reading (partly related to business advancement) and less time on the computer (and less multitasking, I'm relearning to focus on one thing at a time). Hence my tags have been fairly slow lately on top of the old different timezones (Europe vs USA mainly) problem. I'm around though and always up for tags, just be aware they'll probably drag out a while.

Jim Gutterman: Settled. That's probably the best way to put it. He's accepted he's not getting out of the village any time soon, he's got the fire station to look after and it's a far more interesting job than poker dealing was. He enjoys spending time with Kate and is happy about new volunteers for the fire service and the chance to get to take Faramir flying for the first time.
Needs threads with: Kate Beckett (skating), Faramir (flying on the holodeck), maybe Steve Rogers at the fire station to talk about volunteering - anyone else who wants to hang out with him or volunteer for the fire crew

Martin Crieff: Frustrated. He was falling in love with a beautiful woman who liked him just as much. He was so happy! And now she's gone!
He knows Legolas is trying to help, but the elf is so different from himself (and most people he's met), it often just puzzles him. Someone as gentle and friendly is just very, very unfamiliar.
He's been adopted by a stray cat, but has yet to really settle in with it. He's never had a pet before and though he's trying to do it justice, he's got a lot to learn about cats.
So at the moment he's just frustrated with the village, feeling like it's toying with him, dangling a carrot in front of his nose and pulling it away when he reaches for it. He'll get over it, but he's not there yet.
Needs threads with: no one in particular but I'm open for ideas

Clayton Webb: Trying to be his sneaky, secretive self, but finding it hard in the village. Being a spy works better when you've got a network to back you up, like the CIA back home. So he's always keeping his eyes and ears open, trying to pick up information left and right, figuring out who can be helpful to him.
He's trying to put together an opera behind Sherlock's back as he's not heard a word from him in ages and quickly got tired of waiting. He's managed to round up some people, but he's still trying to figure out how to find performers without being able to openly promote his event.
He's taking dancing lessons and been fencing, enjoying his old passions now that he has time for them.
People he likes: He enjoys spending time with Brigid and Catherine, as he perceives them both as smart and self-confident women. Other than that, he's only 'socializing' when it might prove beneficial in some way, like when he hopes to get some valuable information out of it.
Needs threads with: Brigid and Draco for opera planning purposes, other than that I'm open for ideas!
