Hello there. You can call me simply Paper, and I'm here to search for a fairly specific RP. The plot, it goes thusly, based on this fic:
If you are interested, please send me a PM. My preferred means of RP are through email, though I can RP in a separate thread or PM here as well. Whatever you're most comfortable with. My posts can range from 700-1200 words, so I'd like if yours were the same. Please have a good grasp on the English language, grammar, spelling, all the good stuff. We will definitely need to plot out a new overarching plot to this whole thing besides pointless meandering, so be prepared to chat OOC. Also, in your PM to me, please fill out a multi-paragraph character sheet or biography for the character you plan on using. This will help me grasp your writing style and who I'll be playing with. I've left one below for you to read, all in fairness. (It's short, but I'm afraid I couldn't find another good example.)
Thank you for reading this!
Things were fine in modern-day London for a long while. Your character, recently dismissed from fighting in Afghanistan, due to an injury, had just recently pulled together his life again. The nightmares came and went, and the PTSD and paranoia he coped with daily gave him hell. But there was hope for a complete recovery, and hope was just enough to keep him away from the pistol stored away in his bedside table. And then the outbreaks started. No one was quite sure what it is, where it started, or why, but soon news stations were covering stories of tens of millions of people dying in third-world countries. They continued to die in nearby countries with better and better resources, passing the lethal virus with terrifying ease. It wasn't long until the storm cloud hit the United States, China, Russia, and the UK. Not even the world's leaders could continue standing.
Perhaps it was the fact that your character was clever and prepared early. He bought a tent, a bed roll, a water purification kit, canned food, extra ammunition, rope; anything that would be needed in a war-zone, which was what the city soon became. It was rumored that twenty-percent of all whom were faced with the outbreak became immune to the virus and survived, though many guessed a lower percent were still on the face of the Earth. Every day became a fight to eat, to scrounge other disserted homes for materials, to avoid being killed so that your own possessions could be put to someone else. Your character adopted this lifestyle with more ease than most.
Our RP begins with your character breaking into a new, seemingly empty home. While yours is in the process of emptying the pantries and unpowered refrigerator, my character steps out from her hiding place with a knife. Yours hardly has any other option but to surrender his weapons and return her supplies. In the process, however, the two mutually agree to listen to one another's stories. Mine details her life as a music student before the world came to an end, then her life in forced prostitution, earning gasoline for the 'traders' who once owned her. Yours explains his own tales of survival and loss. It's through these frank conversations that they strike up a friendship of sorts and a companionship, struggling to get by everyday.
