Princess Crystal Amaquelin hails from what is objectively one of the worst television programs in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Inhumans. I the writer watched the entire damn show because I am a glutton for punishment and it was a trainwreck that I couldn't not see through once I began it; booze helped, as did the fact that I found Crystal (and her big stupid CGI dog) adorable and wanted to rescue her/them. That's what this roleplay journal essentially is, rescuing her (and by proxy her big stupid CGI dog). I'm the rescuer of wayward women in the MCU. I own it.
First off, though, I wanted to say: sorry, y'all, while I'm here to play Crystal I actually pretty much hated Inhumans as a series and most of the characters on it because most of them were assholes (Gorgon notwithstanding, though I disapprove of how he was ultimately handled in the plot, and like, Triton and Louise get a pass by virtue of being essentially plot devices). I don't actually have much interest in playing Crystal off of those not mentioned from her direct canon because I don't like them; snarky texting threads would be about the limit. Sorry.
