Hello and welcome to my 1x1 partner search, you can call me Cherry! ~ I hope you find something that interests you here! Or if you just think I'm a neat person feel free to befriend me haha
The basics ~
My name is Cherry!
+ I'm 29, Indigenous Canadian (Michif), 2Spirit /Agender / Nonbinary, Femme Lesbian ~
+ I've been writing for 17+ years, role playing for about 14 years but it's been on and off
+ I'm engaged, live with my partner, 2 kiddos, 3 cats, 1 dog & 1 gerbil
+ I'm self employed and an artist, so I'm typically home and reply at odd intervals & hours lol
+ My response times can vary a lot depending on what's going on in my life but I try to keep my partners up to date on what type of vibe they're dealing with etc
+ Big nerd, currently playing BG3 when I'm not busy working or writing on personal projects
+ I love crafting
+ I will make playlists for our roleplay if I get invested ♡
The specifics ~
+ LGBTQIA2S friendly & Welcomed!
+ I have discord! Im good with onsite or off site organization, ooc & main rp
+ I prefer to play f/f pairings or f/nb & nb/nb or if you're familiar with it butch/femme
+ I'm incredibly involved in the butch/femme lesbian community so, if you're also in the community and interested in butch/femme culture I'd happy RP a butch/femme pairing <i'm a femme tho so I most often prefer to play a femme.>
+ I don't rp m/f sorry
+ I personally write semi-advance lit and bounce off my partner
+ I'm ghost friendly for the most part, but if you have the time or energy to just let me know the rp isn't hitting right, please do ~
+ I love character sheets & prefer realistic face claims or written description
+ Prefers or is interested in f/f & sapphic pairings ~ (If you're a person who often roleplays male or masculine characters, you're welcome and free to play a non-binary character that uses he/him or they/them pronouns and identifies as sapphic. lesbian and sapphic people vary across the board so don't be afraid of trying to write a masc enby or female character. )
+ 18+ please, I know it's really annoying to see this a lot, but because I'm 29 and I like ooc I prefer to RP with someone closer to my own age because we'll likely have more in common
+ Standard to advanced understanding of spelling & grammar, but don't come after me for my poor use of commas, I don't wanna talk about it lol
+ Ability to reply 1-3 times a week, if not more. I know that life is hecking busy and hell there are times where this MAY be something I myself am not able to accomplish given the week/month. But this is the minimum I'd like to aim for.
+ Can & prefers to write 900+ words, this is a loose requirement but it is a strong preference. The more you give, the more I have to work with and vice versa! I find that if I'm writing shorter responses it's because I don't have enough to work with or the RP is starting to stall or become uninteresting
+ Strong preference towards partners who like to or know how to create a plot outline and work with me to create even a rough over view of events that will happen in our RP. I find this helps to keep a RP going long term if life stuff etc doesn't get in the way
+ Lively ooc, I prefer to have a good ooc rapport and like to talk to and get to know my writing partners
+ Collaboration! I want to know your opinions, preferences and I want your ideas ~ If we gel as partners, we'll come up with something really heckin' cool! Let me know what you really want, what you're willing to compromise on and so on. I try really hard to provide an open space that we can talk in, so that you feel comfortable letting me know how you're liking what we're doing!
+ Ability to write a diverse cast of characters, even if they're not your MC ~
+ Able to double isn't a requirement but I'm a big fan of doubling or at the very least reoccuring background characters
+ If you're a fan of lore & world building that's a huge bonus!
x IMPORTANT x : I enjoy romance, it's not a requirement necessarily for a good 1x1 RP, however I do enjoy it quite a bit and find myself more interested in a long running RP when the end goal is romance. HOWEVER, slow burn is where it's at. I very very rarely start a roleplay where two characters are already together unless the RP is exploring like, break up dynamics and I think I've only ever done that once. Romance has to feel natural, unforced and honestly realistic! That being said, of course crushes happen pretty quickly, and silly flirting is often part of the romance dynamic. Point being, I only RP slow burn romances okiiii ~
< I love omegaverse dynamics, particularly Alpha/Omega. So any of these ideas can also include that if you're interested cause that would be amazing, but if not don't worry!>
Now, without further ado, my current plot ideas & interests
Genre: Urban Fantasy, Supernatural, Cyber-esque fantasy
World/Environment/Atmosphere: Slightly more futuristic tech, similar world to what we of 2023 are familiar with only with the presense of hidden magic. Internet, phones etc exist, weapons & armour used by The Order have cyber-fantasty magic qualities.
Plot: The world of the supernatural is hidden away from most civilization, under the cover of ancient magic, an order of knights called upon by 'The Oracle' acts as the barrier and defense against the general population learning of the existence of supernatural forces. 'The Order' has existed for time imemorial, some are born into it's sacred halls, others are called to duty through the visions of The Oracle. There are thousands of small sects of The Order all around the world, dedicated to protecting the city, township or village they've been assigned to. Civilians memories are often magically altered if they come into contact by a supernatural or magical force, it is the responsibility of the order to only reveal themselves to those who are destined to enter the fold.
[Your Character] is a highly ranked and accomplished Knight, who has recently <within the last two years> lost their first squire to a tragic death, they feel they have disgraced 'The Order' and had sworn to never take on another squire. [My Character] is a civilian who finds themselves attacked by a monstrous creature and on the brink of death is rescued by [YC]. [YC] by duty is supposed to alter the civilians memories and deliver them to a hospital regardless of survival chances or let a mortally wounded civilian die. So soon after [YC] squire has died, they offer [MC] a sworn oath to The Order without thinking of the consequences.
The Oracle forgives this sacred rule broken by offering one solution, [YC] must take [MC] on as a squire and help them adjust to losing their entire civilian life and educate them on their new life as a guardian to humanity.
Less fleshed out ideas - Pairings ETC
Knight x Princess
Organized Crime type slice of life: [Character 1] is an MMA fighter in an illegal underground fight ring, they are the rising star of this underground fight world on an incredible win streak. They fight and work for [Crime organization 1] They win their latest match, expecting a grand prize based on how the fight was advertised. The prize? [Character 2] A family member of [Crime organization 2]. <Needs more work and some collaboration to figure out where exactly this will go and how the characters wil feel about his. May explore darker themes, since it's a little "human traffick-y" but doesn't need to get super dark or anything.
Organized Crime Leader x Movie Star/Celebrity of some type - Inspiration is the song Off to the Races by Lana Del Rey
Modern F!Romeo x Juliet
Something with werewolves maybe? It's similar enough to omegaverse to make it interesting to me but I don't have any well thought out plots here.
Angel x God of Death
Modern Persephone x F!Hades
This part will be short and sweet ~
+ I tend to write feminine presenting, sapphic, non-binary characters. Most if not all of my characters are indigenous because, well I am lol and I prefer to write my characters as such. I tend to match my characters in my personal writing with masculine/masc presenting, sapphic, non-binary/trans masc characters. If you write characters that match my preference cool, if not that's fine too! I am able to write a diverse cast of characters and I'm open to challenging myself to write to your preferences ~
+ I prefer discord for ooc stuff, but it's not a necessity and I understand that a lot of people don't want to be bugged the second they hop onto discord.
+ My timezone is MST, I usually sleep in & stay up because I have a whack sleep schedule, like I said my response times can vary quite a bit because of this
+ I'm 29, so yeah I prefer to RP with someone who is as close to my age as possible, I really like ooc chatting so it makes it easier if we're closer in age.
+ ooc chat, not a requirement but a strong preference
Nicki reluctantly entered through the employees entrance of "The Best Shot" a bar known only for it's cheap highballs, cheaper beer and threadbare but free to play pool table. Somehow despite its less than sophisticated reputation, Nicki had been called in early for her typical Saturday shift. She breezed through, shoving off the black leather jacket she absolutely didn't need for warmth and mostly wore to catch the eye of whatever pretty girl she could. The bustle of the kitchen met her ears, patrons were laughing, there was a dickhead somewhere yelling about the new guys on site, the clinking of glasses and terrible twangy karaoke flooded the small space.
Tanner, a slim built beta gave her a look of relief as Nicki entered the back of the bar. They had been coworkers for almost three years, Nicki had just finished her first year of bartending when he started, it was her first time training new staff, shortly after being made bar lead. They got along well and she often scheduled him on her busiest shifts. His faint clean beta smell didn't annoy her and he didn't seem to mind whatever alpha scent she gave off most days despite being on suppressants.
She could see the bar stools were full, there were new faces tonight, younger than their usual demographic. She swept her gaze along the rest of the tables, only a few were unoccupied. The rudimentary system of pool table dibs, a chipping green chalkboard, was almost full with names scribbled in dusty white chalk. "What the hell?" Her eyebrow raised as she moved to play bar back giving Tanner a reassuring clap on the shoulder.
"I guess there are a bunch of new workers at the construction site down the road. I dunno, I'm like 3 deep right now, can you take a pitcher of Miller to table 2?"
With two strides she had crossed towards the taps, glass pitcher in hand tilting the glass beneath the metal Miller tap, pale amber liquid pouring as the machine hissed to life.
Grateful for a long arm span the alpha reached along the bar to grab a serving tray, dark green eyes flicking up to quickly headcount table 2. Setting the now full pitcher onto the tray, she retrieved five pint glasses from a hanging shelf above her head, each glass thoroughly rinsed by the star-washer before being placed ready to serve. It was a graceful process, each movement clean and professional a calculated dance that most could see she had executed thousands of times before. In under four minutes she was lifting the tray with ease, balanced in one strong hand, resting against a muscular bicep.
Tanner lifted the bar flap as she breezed behind him, he'd easily caught up on orders with Nicki's help and had started citrus prep near the end of the bar where the floor exit was.
"Niickiii!" A regular called from his barstool, raising a brown bottle in her direction. He was older, mid 60's, unkempt stubble and short cropped gray hair an alpha but clearly not in any type of prime. Nicki had perfected her neutral expression against the smell of desperation and liquor.
"Heyyy, Gordy." Her free hand flicking a casual salute of greeting as she responded.
There were many days she was thankful that it was mandatory to be on scent suppressant to enter and work at "The Best Shot." Even with them, the mix of alcohol and idiots made it hard to tolerate on busy nights.
A round of laughs drew her attention back to table 2 as she closed the distance, her bartending and server brain taking over once again. Table clear? Check. Pitcher first, set down with a gentle thud against the dark wooden laquer, napkins down first, coasters with the emblazoned neon logo of the bar next, then the glasses placed a top. "Pitcher of Miller's and five pint glasses, are you waiting on anything from the kitchen?" Nicki's customer service voice wasn't far off from her normal speaking voice, the alpha in her couldn't completely give way to fake niceties. She did try to raise the inflection and tone around most men, only to garner more tips and less lip from drunken assholes.
Three sets of eyes drew to her voice, while the other two seated at the table continued whichever private conversation they were indulging in.
"Finally, thanks uh.. Nicole." An alpha who looked close to her stature retorted, impatience in his words, his brown eyes meeting her green and he gave her a mock smile. There was another alpha and a beta male who flicked their gaze between the bartender and the speaker of the table.
"It's Nick or Nicki." She smiled back, showing her teeth, her eyebrow quirked unimpressed with his attitude. "So no to anything coming from the kitchen then? If you need anything else you can come see me at the bar, enjoy!"
As she turned on her heel, she felt her chest hit soft but solid resistance for a split second. Nicki's brain scrambled in confusion, wondering how she'd missed a chair in her path. Until the small
"Oof." Hit her ears, and it registered she'd run into another person, her gaze drifting down to the cascade of tawny hair that had appeared just at her bust. A burst of scent fresh and sharp hit her before she could think, citrusy and prickly, but undercut with a buttery sweet. Lemon tarts, and something so much deeper.
"I'm s-so sorry!" Nicki could see her now, the soft form had stepped back reflexively and was now in full view. A petite omega stood looking back at the alpha, mottled hazel eyes wet with embarrassment, soft dark blonde locks fell over her shoulders, framing a heart shaped face.
"Don't apologize." Nicki's brain finally snapped back to her body like a rubber band, but her mind was flooded and racing. "That was all me, I should be saying sorry to you, cutie." The words weren't as suave as they usually were, but her voice didn't waver despite how hard she could feel her heart thudding in her ribcage. "Is that six glasses then?" Lips curling into a playful smirk as she directed the question towards the woman in front of her.
"Yeah might want to ask your buddy at the bar next time, huh? Jesus, Charlotte are you ever not in someone's way?" The words and a harsh teasing laugh came from the table, a pang of annoyance shot through her as she recognized the alpha male's voice.
"Don't be an asshole, Asher." Nicki watched pretty lips hiss annoyed back at him, her whole being felt laser focused on the scent of citrus and the soft curves of the blonde who was now moving hurriedly towards the table.
"I'll be right back with that."
Nicki sent Tanner back with the final pint glass and charged him with taking care of tables while she dealt with the bar, it would have been impossible to ignore being so close to that scent all night. Not one person's scent had ever caught her like that, throwing her so off guard. Nicki had, until tonight, assumed she'd perfected the art of ignoring the most obnoxious of imposing smells. Somehow she was wrong and the immediate arousal that had hit her felt unbearable, heat flushed her face and even more inconveniently made her jeans feel tighter against her pelvis. If Tanner had noticed a change in her demeanor that shift, he had the brains enough not to point it out. He diligently continued his shift as normal, while she tried and failed to keep her eyes off the omega all night. Failed to ignore her slip in beside the douchebag alpha, failed not to notice him press her small frame against him, failed not to grit her teeth at the omega's uneasy smile as she shifted against his grip.
It was a long shift and when the group called Tanner over to settle the bill just before last call and turned away before she could watch the blonde disappear out the door. Running her fingers tersely through her short brown hair, ruffling the slick locks anxiously as relief and a cold drop of disappointment washed over.
Nicki would quickly learn the relief would be short lived and a painfully irritating and teasing six months would follow her first time meeting Charlotte.
