O'Ryan Keys is a Floater. He is written by Boarder!Kittyauthor.
Agent Profile[]
Appearance[]
He is six and a half feet tall, has gray hair and gray-black goatee-mustache thing, and blue eyes. He has the Floater's flash patch pattern tattooed to his upper arm after requesting it while drunk on Bleepka. He is a bit muscular in appearance. His Uniform is a three piece black and white suit.
Personality[]
He is kind to those who aren't lazy and like math, as well as those who appear young, happy, and/or helpless. He tends to be bitter and sarcastic to those who are lazy. As for those who dislike math, he gets pretty mad about that, being reminded of the students who he had to endure during his time as a teacher. He is jealous of those who are or were baseball players. He also tends to be the person to yell at the IO (for the reason see below) and likes to make jokes to make missions more bearable (unless he's yelling at the Sue, but that's different).
O'Ryan and the Ironic Overpower/Laws of Narrative Comedy[]
The Ironic Overpower tends to pay... special attention to O'Ryan Keys, often causing him to be more affected by chapter jumps/timeskips/generally bad occurrences. To give an example, anytime a paper airplane is thrown towards O'Ryan, it hits him on the nose. Anytime a chapter jump happens, O'Ryan will usually be thrown onto a wall. This curse will never kill him (since death isn't very funny) but can leave him in Medical.
History[]
Before PPC[]
He became a math teacher after his lifelong dream of being a baseball player was crushed by a coach at the tryouts, all because he wasn't magical and "non-magics don't heal fast enough for baseball." He realized soon after becoming a math teacher that teaching his favorite subject was a terrible idea. Not many people at the school he taught liked math or even tried. Some tried to cheat (and were caught) while others just didn't care enough to even do the homework or tests. He decided he was being driven crazy enough by these kids and tried to get a job elsewhere. He was rejected for unknown reasons. After his interview, he was walking out when he fell through a portal to PPC HQ, as it was opened accidentally by an agent. After hearing about what they do, he decided to join, mostly because he wanted to be driven crazy of his own accord and because Sues and Sue-wraiths are the very definition of lazy.
PPC Career[]
Sometime after his arrival but before Kitty came, he got drunk on Bleeka because he read Legendary Badfic. He somehow wandered into a tattoo place and requested a Floater flash patch to be tattooed onto his arm.
He had been at PPC for about a year when Kitty became his partner.
