* advice!
I. intro. My Saul Goodman is canon divergent in that I chose to portray him as a butch lesbian. Why this change / why not make an oc? Simple, short answer: I took the Saul kissing like a woman memes too seriously because I wanted to AND I think butches and older women deserve love! I love playing with gender roles and expectations and subverting the usual. I don't have a faceclaim for Saul and use faceless stuff as a stand in. Anyways, hi, I'm Ramone, 25, they/them! I've been writing for several years now on and off of Tumblr. I'm excited to be here and am happy to have found a canon character that I feel really comfortable playing around with. DISCLAIMER: I'm not fully caught up on every season/episode yet due to life being busy right now, but I have read up on what happens. Please forgive me if I miss your references! I generally don't care about spoilers.II. availability. I am slow and sporadic due to having a fulltime job. I work 5 days a week, which compounded with my neurodivergence and disabilities, make energy and muse hard to acquire sometimes. I will most likely be more active on weekends. That being said, please don't take silence or lack of writing for disinterest. I may be resting up or working! Please don't rush me for replies or imply I'm taking too long, because not only can I not force myself to gain energy and muse, that's just kinda... rude.III. communication. I love talking OOC and getting to know my mutuals and make friends. Please don't be scared, I'm really a big nerd who has a ton of enthusiasm! Please note, I can misinterpret tone, especially over text, and may need you to clarify stuff. If I do something upsetting or otherwise bothersome, please be straightforward and honest about it. As someone who is autistic, I need open and straightforward communication to understand things properly. I... really will be oblivious if I'm just given vague hints or if you beat around the bush. If you want to break mutuals, please hard block. You don't have to say why, and I would prefer you to hard block me instead of ghost me or soft block me, so I don't attempt to interact still.IV. triggers. BCS/BB have a ton of triggers, and I will be very vigilant in tagging them. Things like drugs/alcohol, mental health, and violence/death will come up. Unfortunately, Saul is a very manipulative and selfish person, and I don't want to tone her down. If you wouldn't like your character coming into contact with someone extremely self-serving and money hungry... this might not be the blog for you. She's ambitious to a fault. Muse doesn't equal mun, vice versa. For my triggers, I'd like if anything smut related was tagged. Smut threads, nsfw headcanons, asks, etc. I fully support it and don't mind writing myself with people who are comfortable, but I feel awkward seeing it when it doesn't involve my muse. I'd also like pregnancy and childbirth tagged. Thanks!V. shipping. I like creating all kinds of relationships with my muses, and with Saul, I expect them to not be so smooth. I am aware of her personality and habits, which gives us plenty of opportunities to concoct interesting dynamics! She's very loyal but is prone to a little thing called backstabbing or dropping you if it benefits her. On that note, she isn't a cheater in romantic relationships, and I won't be doing those plots considering the canon lore. She's a butch lesbian, so she will not be romantically involved with men and nobody under 30 years old.VI. preferences. I am not interested in interacting with any muses from children's media / things that started off as kid's stuff (Bluey, MLP, etc.). I am also not interested in any sort of Harry Potter stuff or Vivziepop related (Hazbin Hotel, etc.). I am OC friendly, but please have accessible information. If you need a faceclaim or see icons to write with someone, keep moving. I'm trying to stay lax and have fun for myself, please don't follow me and then complain about how I do things on my own blog.VII. flexibility. I am crossover and oc friendly and don't mind playing around with timelines. I love messing around with making new verses and the like! Let's plot and discuss stuff if you're interested in writing with Jean/Saul!DISCLAIMER: I'm not a lawyer or in law school myself. I may get something wrong, but I am doing research as I go. Knowing the nature of this character, however, playing things fast and loose might be the move, LMAO

They say identity changes as you age, but Jean McGill has been changing hers every so often. You'll be hard pressed seeing her use any semblance of her given name anymore.

age 42+. (main verse)
origin Cicero, Illinois.
current location Albuquerque, New Mexico

birthday November 12th 1960
zodiac Scorpio sun.
sexualityㅤ Lesbian.parental figuresㅤ Charles McGill Sr., Ruth McGill.
siblings Chuck McGill
In too deep, Saul Goodman used to just be an old drag persona of Jean's, but now he's become her whole identity. No wonder she's always having a crisis!
height 5'9" / 175.26 cm
weight 145lbs (65.8 kg).
eyesㅤ Blue-eyed.
hair Light brown.
Saul looks like your average middle-aged smarmy lawyer, but slightly more attractive, or whatever the fuck you wanna call it. The tacky ass suits definitely knock points off, unless you're into that sort of thing. Jean tries to keep it professional, but you know how that goes. She keeps her hair short and combed neatly, but when you're busy fucking up constantly... it's hard keeping your 'do in place. At least she has pretty eyes and a nice smile?
alignment Something chaotic, something neutral, hints of evil.positive traitsㅤ articulate, charismatic, detail-oriented, driven, entrepreneurial, expressive, inventive, loyal, motivated, qualified. quick-witted, reliable.
neutral traitsㅤambitious, bold, competitive, determined, experimental, loquacious, persuasive, resourceful, self-reliant
negative traitsㅤ bitter, conniving, deceptive, impulsive, intense, obsessive, petty, predictable, resentful, sarcastic, secretive, selfish, self-serving, unchanging.diagnosis (Undiagnosed) Borderline Personality Disorder, Depression, and ADHD.
Loyal like a dog, but also as cruel as the owner, Jean is attached to those she finds dear. She'd do just about anything for them... until she's decided their goals don't align or they grow apart. She's very used to unstable relationships by now and can't seem to keep a grip on them.
skillsㅤ Persuasion. Jean has a way of being able to persuade people incredibly well and make compromises. In fact, she probably shouldn't still be alive right now. Did I mention she's talked people out of killing her before? Wow, no wonder she's a lawyer.
Charm? Somehow people end up endeared to her...not for very long, but like, it's a mixture of pathetic and assholish charm that only a mother could love. Or something like that.
Scam Artistry. Jean's been around the block a few times when it comes to conning people. She somehow hasn't perfected her technique nor left that life behind.paraphernalia Tacky ties. The perfect accessory to finish off your eye bleeding suits. Great!
Law degrees. You see that? That's qualifications. That's BIG MONEY! Or, uh, that's what would've maybe happened if she stayed on the straight and narrow. Oops.
* storyline!
The year is 2002, you're broke, stressed, and barely surviving. You're doing public defender work and aren't making much money. 700 fucking dollars a case? Seriously? You can't get ahold of clients outside of that, and your office is inside of a nail salon. You're taking care of your brother now and trying to keep him from getting played by his law firm, which he helped start, by the way! You swear you've changed. You're not Slippin' Jeanie anymore. You're not scamming people... except you are. You're a liar and a fraud and now you're tied up with the cartel? God fucking dammit. Unless... this could be your big break. You'd heard of a damn good case. Something juicy, the biggest bucks you've ever seen. Over a million dollars? Hell yeah, you wanna take that! One small problem: one of the cartel guys wants a piece of the pie. You swear you're not like that... until you eventually find the family the case involves, and they offer you 30 grand as a retainer. Well, shit! Don't mind if you do...Not to brag, but you're a hero now. You saved some guy from falling off your billboard! The people love you...kinda. You don't find much success except with the elderly, but a win's a win! Here's where the transformation begins, new suit and all. You're volunteering at retirement homes, where he helps pass out meals, hosting bingo games, and slowly building a growing client base. Then you learn that Sandpiper Crossing is grossly overcharging the residents. You do a little dumpster diving, find some incriminating shredded evidence, and holy shit, you're genuinely building a case! Your brother suggests you let his law firm take on the case, and you think you're finally working together as a team. You're offered some sweet, sweet payment in return, but are swiftly turned down when you try to inquire about a job there. Are you fucking serious? Bullshit, the deal's off! You change your mind eventually but go back home to reconnect with your ol' scamming buddy...who ends up dying in your arms.Christ. At least you have a different firm offering you a position? Forget it. You've moving up and out, including out of that nail salon. You once again change your mind and take up the offer with the firm, but your commercial pitch really pissed them off. They're watching you like a hawk, and you ditch your fancy shmancy apartment... to move back into your old office. Fired from your new gig, you look for broader horizons... a new office! You make new ads, forge a few copies, make your brother have an attack...you stay with him until he's better and take him home. You get your first consultations in your new place and oh shit, what's going on now? Your brother quit his job, and your commercial is making people mad again? Great.Did I mention you get arrested for breaking into your brother's house? Surprise! Oh, and that's a felony, by the way. You'd be disbarred for that, but no worries, you're gonna represent yourself, baby! Things don't go well, and your brother loses it... but hey, on the bright side, you're only suspended for a year! Fuck yes! It's commercial time once again, folks! Hope you're ready for Saul Goodman! Well, you sure weren't, as you're now penniless, depressed, and exhausted again. You slip into your old ways, literally, and despite getting injured, you get the money you've been looking for. You try to talk to your brother, but any semblance of a relationship with him goes up with flames. Oh, and he's dead now, too. More guilt to carry with you for the rest of your life, it's your cross to bear.You're offered a position as a manager at a phone store, which you eventually take. It's boring as all hell, with a severe lack of customers. You become inspired and start an advertisement on the windows, saying you could offer privacy via a prepaid phone. We are so back. Just kidding, you get mugged! By teens. Wow. You switch gears again, swearing you want to be a damn good lawyer and pursue criminal law, but that's not gonna work out, either. You return to the Saul Goodman persona, selling phones to criminals. Are you really surprised when your license doesn't get reinstated for you coming off as insincere? Good thing you can have another hearing! One bullshit story later and s'all good, man!
TIMELINE
1960s-early 1970s. Jean was born and grew up alongside her brother Chuck in Cicero, Illinois. Their father owned a small corner store, but he was known for his naivety. Jean noticed how people would try to take advantage of his generous and kind nature and fleece him out of money. After an incident where Jean called a con artist out, she herself was inspired to start scamming others and even began embezzling money from the cash register at her father's store.
Late 1970s. Chuck discovers Jean's embezzlements. The family store closes and 6 months later, their father dies. Jean blamed the closure on her father being too trusting and Good Samaritan nature; Chuck blamed her for it and for being the cause of their father's death. Jean began running scams at her high school, including her famous 'slip-and-fall'. She gains the nickname and notoriety of being Slippin' Jeanie.
1980s. Jean stages a slip in 1982 that leaves her knees broken after hitting the ground too hard. She starts teaming up with her friend Marco and creating elaborate scams with him, mostly by tricking people into paying large amounts for fake Rolex watches. She spends a good amount of her life during this time in bars, drinking and conning people alongside various small drag gigs.
1990s. A stupid, drunken act of revenge gets Jean arrested. Chuck had become a successful lawyer in Albuquerque, and after being pleaded with by their mother, flew out to speak with Jean. She begs him to use his 'bag of tricks' as a lawyer to pull some strings and clear her charges. He wasn't so sure, given her past, but he eventually agrees to do it on the conditions she moves to Albuquerque and get a legitimate job at his law firm.
1990s cont. Jean starts to befriend people as she takes up a job in HHM'S mailroom. After seeing her brother get praised for successfully winning a difficult case, she decides to take up an interest in law. After two failed attempts, she finally passes the bar exam in 1998, something Chuck secretly was upset by. Jean and Chuck's mother passes away in 1999.
2000s. After passing the bar, Jean thought that she'd be able to be hired within the firm, but Chuck had convinced the others to not hire her because he didn't see her as a real lawyer. She quits working at HHM to pursue a solo practice. In 2001, Chuck and his wife separate, and he develops a condition in which he thinks he's allergic to electricity. Jean begins to help him with tasks, such as getting groceries and bringing his newspapers inside.
* verses, etc.!
MAIN
Jeanie to Saul Pipeline. This verse takes place during the main events of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. Follows the above biography. Depending on context, I'll be switching between Jean and Saul.
Depressabon. IYKYK... Jeanie's slipped up again and ended up with a new name in a new place and is left mourning what could've been over VHS tapes.

SLIPPIN' JEANIE.
Blue Eyed Bandit. "World" Famous scam artist here... this verse basically covers Jean's cons before her attempts at practicing law.
Played the Long Con. What if Jean was successful with the scamming biz? What if she never truly slipped up? The lawyer biz is obsolete when you've started and run a con artist empire!
