She couldn't help it; every time the door opened, she felt another flash of hope run through her, her heart fluttering a bit, and she would try to hide the quick glance she'd give as it swung open. Sometimes there would be a patient, either with an exhausted yet relieved smile or one of those...
Keep his head up. A person floating face-down in the water will be dead in minutes, and that’s not even considering the half-drowned, exhausted, barely conscious kind.
He was still alive—the flitter in his eyes and soft groaning testified of it—but from the looks of it, it wouldn’t be for much...
The sea. It was so calm that morning. Kind of strange, actually. That wicked tempest last night did some crazy damage in such a short time--Anne had even heard that some of the boats had been cut lose. What kind of storm did that? Preposterous. In fact, had she not seen a few of the unattached...
I don't even know how to start this . . . Well, perfect start to a day, that's for sure. You know you've got me interested when I start smiling at the computer screen like some insane person. Now all I need is a crazy laugh and I'll be set! (: But, really, I'm glad I'm alone right now. I'd be...
Wow. What a wonderful, detailed, personal response. You even went through the effort to quote the various parts of my response and thoroughly answer them. Thank you! Makes me feel special. (:
If you say so . . . I'm putting complete trust in you. (: I mean, I've been told in the past to focus...
Oh, yes, yes! I totally forgot you guys can pair up with each other. XP Well, MrMopp, I hope you find a partner! You have some of the best people to choose from. (:
"November break," eh? It's Thanksgiving Break from where I'm from, but it's the same thing, I think. Hallelujah, am I right?
Now, I think I have a partner . . . Oh, goodness. Remember those PM's I mentioned earlier? Yeah. He might be the one.
I feel terribly guilty having to decline so many...
The PM's? Ah, nothing much. I just don't typically get so many in a day, that's all. Nothing to do with this. Or, at least I think it doesn't. It might . . .
So far, nobody's been bothered by the word count. That's nice. Hard to have nice, advanced role-plays without a paragraph or two, right...
Oh, whoops! I missed a key word in your response there: not. Well, that's fine, too. I wouldn't mind starting the discussions. So long as I had someone to bounce ideas to, it'll work fine. Sorry for the misinterpretation! I've got to learn to read better. (:
When I first see someone reply to a thread, one of the first things I do is review their posts - RP posts if I can find them, but anything works. It's one of the easiest ways to get good first impressions, you know? And lucky for me, you had a beautiful link in your signature: List of Roleplays...
Sorry to hear, MrMopp! You had such a wonderful idea going; it's a shame it didn't kick off.
Turtlebay, I'd be fine with you taking the lead. My school schedule can be somewhat crazy at times, too, so irregular posting times wouldn't be an issue for me. I'm serious. I was once in a thread that...
Why, hello there! As the title implies, I've been searching for someone to help me take my role-playing skills to the next level. It's been a few years since I posted my first RP response, and I've fallen in love with it since. I've had fun, met some people, shared a few laughs; haven't we all...
Agreed. Thanks for pointing this out, Idea! I hope more people read this; we really don't need fifteen different threads advertising the same topic, right?
Hi there, MrMopp. Nice to see more people interested in this. I noticed you had a thread named "The Colosseum," and I have to say, I'm impressed. Not a bad way to start an RP! If I were in that thread, I'd feel pretty intimidated at the moment. (That's a good thing.)
I'm waiting for the others...
Goodness gracious. I didn't expect four responses waiting for me after school. Cool. @Nylana, @Zaxs, @TurtleBay, and @ursaeminorisxxx, I've done a basic profile search through each of you. (And also @WakeUpCrono as he PM'd me.) We're all new players here, aren't we? Well, most of us are, at...
You ready for this?
Imagine a thread where people spend more time on the "Lore" tab than on their initial post. Imagine an intricate plot with detailed characters before you start to role-play. Imagine being able to experience a world made by your own hands.
That's what I'm offering.
Now...
Chandre should have backed down. He should have looked away. He should have kept silent. He should have taken back those words.
He didn't.
Instead, he rose from the chair he was in, his dark brown eyes seething with hatred. "You," he hissed, his voice dangerously low as he pointed an...
