Francis

Francis is the main OC of Francis (the girl, not the dog). They live in the main universe as a member of the polycule. They are a non-binary collie in their mid-20's. Their fur is pastel purple and yellow with light blue paw pads, they have a black nose and blue eyes. Their fur is quite long and floofy and their tail has a lot of hanging fur. They have a pink canine dickkkkk with a fat knot and a sheath and balles.

## Early life

Francis was born in the commune to Ruth and an unknown father. After being born, Ruth moved them away from the commune after wanting them to have a childhood that was closer to what she had. Francis is aphonic, meaning that they cannot speak. They learned British Sign Langueage (BSL) from a young age and also often communicated by writing things down in a small journal they keep on themselves at all times.

When Francis finished high school, they went on to pursue a low level qualification in IT at a local college and met Robot through the student assistance department. Robot acted as their interpreter to the students and teachers who could not understand their BSL. Over time they grew closer and began dating, though this was disallowed by the college so their relationship had to remain a secret during Francis' time there, at least from the other staff members. At first, they had been hanging out after class at Francis' place just playing games and stuff but, as they grew closer, they became a lot more snuggly (o//.//o) and began allowing themselves to fall asleep in their blanket forts together.

## Adult life

Francis lived in their flat with Robot after they left college, Robot moving in with them. However, they found it difficult to get work and so they decided to look for a roommate while Francis tried to find a job. After going through a few prospective folks, they eventually invited Nicole to live with them. Their flat was only a one bedroom, however, so the two of them slept on a mattress behind the couch and let Nicole take the bedroom. They made it clear to Nicole that she was always welcome in the living room since she was paying rent and she was not likely to disturb them as Robot doesn't sleep and can keep Francis asleep quite easily. The two of them messed around a lot on this mattress, ending up one day doing it while Nicole was in the room without realising. She was sitting on the couch early in the morning and they woke up without knowing she was there and started being lewd af. It was one of those situations where by the time she realised what was happening, it was already too late too leave and it would have just made it awkward. Luckily, Nicole is a big nasty and is very much into voyeurism and exhibitionism. She quietly sat and listened as the pair messed around, eventually peering over the back of the couch to watch. She watched for a while, making her presence known after a short time. Francis and Robot were totally mortified at first but she reassured them that it was totally ok and they were actually both super cute.

And so began the first stages of the polycule. Nicole played with them at first, mostly watching and listening. Over time, though, they all grew close. Francis and Robot opened their relationship to her and she was happy to accept.

### Work

Francis works in IT maintenance in a large office building. Most of the things they deal with are setting up user accounts, machines and dealing with trouble tickets. Their knowledge of this kind of thing was pretty lacking at first and they kind of blagged their way into the job, it's much easier to lie when you only need to write during the interview. They've picked things up as they've worked though and now they are fairly competent at what they do, even if google does most of their work for them.

### Home

Francis' living situation has changed a few times during their adult life. Starting at first in their small one bedroom place, sleeping behind the couch on a mattress with Nicole sleeping in the bedroom. From there, the three of them moved to a larger two bedroom place that even had a little storage space off the ground in the hallway that they needed a ladder to get up to. Francis bought a ladder and paid a friend of theirs to decorate and engrave with patterns of plants and flowers. They used this cupboard space as their alchemy room, for brewing potions and keeping/growing their ingredients in. Francis and Robot had a room to share and Nicole had her own room, she loves them both a lot but likes to have a space to herself and it's inconvenient to sleep three people in a double bed every night, though there are times they all spend the night together.

Their current place is a large five bedroom house (which I will eventually get around do doing a little layout of), built three storeys high and fairly skinny. The ground floor makes up most of the communal spaces, the living room, kitchen, dining room, the smaller bathroom and a conservatory out into the back garden. The first floor has three bedrooms that are used by Ruth, Squish and Veronica, and the larger bathroom. On the second floor are Francis and Robot's bedroom, Nicole's bedroom and a small cupboard space that Francis uses for their potions. The top floor bedrooms are a little smaller than the first floor ones as there is also an attic that is mostly used for storage and as a creative space, it has a large window that faces out the front of the house and lets in a lot of light. Squish and Ruth use this space most often.

### Clothing

Francis mostly wears crop tops and booty shorts because they get warm easily and they also make them feel super cute and extremely hot. They have been looking to change their look up a little bit but I have put literally no work into this as I'm afraid of looking at clothes, heh.

## Relationships

Francis is in a relationship involving many different folks at various different levels of involvement. This is their polycule, insomuch as they are the central figure from which it all spans out from.

#### Robot

Robot is their main partner and the person they spend the most time with. They share a bedroom though they do not always sleep in bed together, often sleeping with other members of the polycule. They are incredibly close and communicate easily. When speaking with each other, Francis will almost always use sign language and Robot will normally respond with a combination of sign language and presenting small pictures and symbols on their chest screen. Robot doesn't like to use their synthesised voice with Francis but doesn't mind doing it if they are having difficulty expressing a thought or idea through the normal means ~~or when they want to do audible filthy talk in their ear.~~

#### Nicole

Nicole was the second member of the polycule. She, Francis and Robot are all quite close and were together for over a year before anyone else became involved. They often go on dates all together. These dates usually involve going out for a drive somewhere in Nicole's van to a forest or something for nature walks, etc. Francis also enjoys getting involved in her streams, though they don't like to show their face in the same way that she enjoys. Nicole and Francis are more often than not, very cute and snuggly together but she does like to get out her rare dominant moods on them. Nicole has her own room that doubles as her home office/streaming room.

#### Ruth

Ruth is Francis' mother though she didn't become involved in a relationship with them until they were well into their adulthood (so don't actually worry about it they're both fine and also not real so it's not a problem, eyes emoji at you know who.) She spent a few days over Christmas one year staying with Francis, Nicole and Robot and saw them interacting with each other. She liked how they spoke and touched each other and it reminded her of her times in the commune. She realised that her offspring was actually very cute and that they had grown into someone very different from the child she had raised. They were all snuggled up together on the couch while she sat on an armchair and she realised that she wanted to be a part of what they had. She shimmied over to the couch and cuddled up to Francis, wrapping her arms around them and kissing them softly on the cheek. They understood almost instantly what she had intended and she kind of wordlessly joined the polycule. She lives with them now and has her own bedroom. She and Francis are also very close, often going on dates together and often getting remarks that they make a cute couple.

#### Veronica

Francis met Veronica at work in their office building. They work on the same floor though in different departments. She was taken with them almost as soon as she met them, thinking they were so small and cute (especially since she's over eight feet tall.) Their relationship blossomed only at work at first, she felt younger passing notes and sending flirty emails. She learned a few words of sign language, so she could understand them without having to read their notes though she insisted that they keep writing them for her so she could save them in a little box at home. They were clear with her up front about the relationship they were already in and the dynamic of it, though that didn't stop her from feeling awkward and guilty the first time Robot came to visit them for lunch. Francis brought Robot up to their desk to eat lunch together and introduced them to Veronica. Their little chest screen all but did the 'cartoon character's head turns into a howling wolf, awooga car horn sound, humana humana humana, etc.' but like, in a very respectful way.

## Interests and Activities

Francis is involved in a number of hobbies and activities. They are often conveniently horny or useful but it's my au and I get to choose the Mary Sue.

### Potions

Francis brews potions both as a hobby and as a very small business though they do not really like to charge for their potions, only doing so when someone asks for a large batch or a brew with particular effects. There is a certain amount of magic in their world and by mixing ingredients you can tap into that magic. They have a small apothecary in a converted cupboard space in their current house. They have an extensive collection of glassware, mortar and pestles and chemistry equipment. As well as this there are also several tanks of small animals such as insects, lizards and fish that they harvest ingredients from. They prefer not to buy their ingredients from elsewhere as the hobby is more about maintaining their supply and starting from scratch than the actual effects of the potions for them, though they are an added bonus.

### Games

Francis loves playing games but does not consider themselves to be terribly good at them. They mostly like playing games with Robot, especially when they get to use their little chest screen as the display for playing things like pokemon, etc.
