A darker background for Quicksilver.
I'm going to go with a slightly darker background for him for the story I'm working on. Even though is set in Dee's/Charra's Universe.
Codename: Quicksilver
Name: Jonathan Quick (Formerly Jonathan Davidson)
Relatives: Samuel Davidson (Father), Teresa Quick-Davidson (Deceased), Diana Davidson (Step-Mother), Natalie Davidson (Half-Sister) Brian Davidson (Half-Brother)
Jon was an only child. Loved and somewhat spoiled. When he was 5 his parents were in a car accident. His father was the only survivor. After his mothers death, his father turned cold and paid less and less attention to him. When he was 8 his father remarried. Jon and Diana did not get along. He felt that she was the reason that his father acted the way he did. When he was 9, his step-mother gave birth to his half-sister, Natalie. By the time he turned 10 he was having problems in school due to his attitude and behavior. His parents, instead of trying to find out what the problem was, ignored him. That only made things worse.
At age 12 he was involved with gangs, skipping school and getting into serious trouble. It didn't help that his half-brother, Brian, was also born that year.
At the age of 14 he was into the drug scene.
At 15 he, and the gang he was with at the time, was busted for drugs. He was sent to a military boarding school instead of a reform school to keep from being an "embarrassment" to his family. While in the boarding school, he constantly received letters on how good his half-siblings were and how they were staying out of trouble or not getting into any in the first place. It only served to ostracize him from his parents and siblings. As a result he started pushing himself harder and harder.
At 17, he graduated with honors at the top of his class a year early, but they never showed.
As soon as he reached 18 he had his name legally changed to his mothers maiden name of Quick and joined the military. He worked his way up the ranks until he became head of Inter Planetary Force 8 ( IPF8 ). Even then he was considered too rule bound and serious minded, never going out to parties and always working later the need be.
When the call went out for Volunteers for the SilverHawks, he immediately put in and was accepted. From there the rest is pretty much history.
Though over the last decade that he has been in Limbo, he has received letters and cards from his family, which, while accepting them, has yet to open any.
Hey, this is perfect! I have something similar for Sapphire's background; looks like we know who the next couple's going to be! I figure as much, since Phantom and Will seem to be an unofficial couple. Speaking of wish, since when did Hotwing and Steelheart speak Tch? I know it's telepathy in the story, but the markings are a little confusing.

Re: A darker background for Quicksilver.
*Chuckles* I lost track of what symbol represents what language a long time ago. I just used thoses for simplicity sakes. Umm I think it's mentioned in 'A woman Scorned' that he taught her something. Dont remember, would have to go back & Re-read.
Ayeppers. Looks like the next pair is established..
Re: A darker background for Quicksilver.
Hmmm.. Hotwing may have learned someTch from Dee, and 'Heart can pick it out of his mind...lol. but if anything, they'd know a bit of Mua just from exposure over the years... lol
I like this take on Quick. It does explain a lot of his attitudes...

I like it. The backgroud works. Good luck with the story. It helped me crystalize some concepts for Midori\Firefly. Back on subject, the language symbols are.
The only on I have dificulty remembering is Hnn because we don't use it often. Edited by: KM20 at: 1/15/02 3:20:45 am

For what it's worth, I generally put telepathy in italics, because it is thought, first and foremost. I also have characters with a sort of limited form of it (can communicate with only one other) in single quotations. 'blah blah blah' So that one will tell me what's goign on when I get it ready to archive.

*G* Thanks
BTW, anyone that wants to read "It's Lonely at the top" please email me. Due to some of the graphic scenes I don't want to post it to a public board. and there's no way to tone it down without loosing some of the story line. Part one is complete at this time
Re: A darker background for Quicksilver.
Dee: You would.
Chajo: Read "Waterloo" and love it! I've been meaning to portray Moonstryker as a flirt, but you my dear have shown him in his highest peak of arrogance. Yeouch. What a lecture he got.

Re: A darker background for Quicksilver.
hehe *bows* hehe Thank you *G* MoonHawke is a great help. She has the ability to channel A lot of the Hawks. As for Moonie hehehe I've always seen him as Arogent to the highest degree. the few epidoes I remember him in he was a braggart *L* I think he acts before he thinks and has a callous attitude. Also things women should fall all over him *Rolls eyes* Oh boy! hehehe
Re: A darker background for Quicksilver.
Mik: I think that would be overkill, for both parties. But...if Dee and I decide to show any sort of mercy towards the EBOD(Evil Bitch of Death), we'll work something out.
Chajo: This gives me a great idea for a story on how Moonie spent his first days at Hawk Haven. I know he was debuted, like all 'Hawks, on a mission, but what about his next mission? Makes ya wonder. Problem is, I don't know which stroyline to use; the one with an exchange program in which the SilverHawks and the local army participate in, or the one where Will, Stryker and Bluegrass are 'cordially' invited on Bedlama's military base to participate in a war game. So many ideas...
Re: A darker background for Quicksilver.
Cool I liked it alot. Wow here I thought he was just from the upper crust with an alledged Yak (Yakkuza) background on his mother's side.
