[OOC] Let's Go Run A Bakery~!

[BlackCat]

I have a suggestion. I think you should put in a relationship chart for each character. That way you can see what they think of the others.

If we do that we'd have to interact with each other and that way we know how they would react together. It'd be easier if we did a relationship chart after a few IC posts.

[BlackCat]

Cool, I left a blank one in my CS for now.

[Hibiki No Echo]

Alright that's fine with me. :)

I will probably have the first IC post up either tonight or tomorrow.

[Legion02]

Is this RP still open?

Also, if it is, can anyone suggest a good website where i could get an appearance pic from?

[Hibiki No Echo]

Yes this is open! :)

For good appearances I tend to just go google images or look up visual novel sprites but for the most part I'm not sure.

[Trinais]

Yeah, Google image or DeviantArt are both good ones.

[Legion02]

Name: David LaFontaine

Age: 15
Appearance:

Picture

Personality: He is the definition of shy and silent. But not impolite. For a matter of fact, he loves talking. But always worries he will annoy people with what he has to say. He’s nice and will often put the good of others before himself. He’s also the kind of person that doesn’t mind doing something that most others dislike: cleaning. He’s often seen as a nerd and has no concept of style or fashion in what sort of way. Next to baking and cooking, computers are his life and he rarely goes out of his room. He also has a distinct dislike for large amount of people. If he would be told to stand behind the cashier, he would literally hide in a closet. (well probably not, he wouldn’t want to let miss Lilacflour down).

Occupation at the Bakery: Baker and janitor. He cleans often late at night after the shop closes.

History: He actually lived most of his life in France, near the border with Belgium. There he helped his mother in the local bakery they owned. Well, helping is a big word. He gave her the ingredients and often watched. Though sometimes he would help out and almost always could he taste. Though it came at a price. He had to help clean up the kitchen every evening. Around the age of 13 his father got offered a prestigious job in Japan. They moved and David had to find another thing to keep him busy. So he began playing on the computer. His mother still loved baking so still made cakes and pies whenever she could, and David did help her with it. One day he heard a bakery was looking for more people to work there and he just signed up.

((I might make a sister for him but I have never played a female character before))

[BlackCat]

Yay. More guys for Sumiko to feel awkward around.

[Hibiki No Echo]

I accept. Please copy your CS to the character tab.

TIME TO GET THIS PARTY STARTED.

This still isn't closed yet. So if you think anyone is going to join be sure to tell them that they are welcome to join!

[Legion02]

Well, truth be told, David would probably act equally weird around her. He'd just be that guy that might as well be a ghost cause you never hear him say anything. ((except maybe to his sister if i make her))

EDIT: Oh so i can make the sister? Or can i only have 1 character?

[BlackCat]

They'd be hilarious to watch in the same room. They'd probably skirt around each other. And in general just be super awkward.

[Hibiki No Echo]

Eeeeeeeh I'm not sure. Would his sister be part of the Bakery? Also if I allow it, then everyone will get a second character. The only reason I have 3 character is because they're all plot relevant.

If people are all for it then sure, then I'll allow them all to have a second character and there may be other people to join and then there would be alot of characters.

Also don't forget everyone, the Bakery may be the main place of interaction but there will be other places to interact such as the school or other places. Since realistically, around only 5 people will be needed at a shift.

[Trinais]

I will be unable to post most of today T_T but will get one up after work!

[Legion02]

I was thinking to make her either a very frequent visitor or a cashier. Though I got a gut feeling that there are already quite a few people employed at the small bakery. So I'll totally understand it if you say no.

[Hibiki No Echo]

Hmm what about making her a very prominent NPC? So that way, you won't have a second character but everyone will.

[Legion02]

I can roll with that.

[Hibiki No Echo]

Very well then! I'll have to ask that you create another CS for her so I can accept it please! :)

Name:
Mia LaFontaine

Age: 17

Appearance

Appearance:

Personality: She’s everything her brother, David, is not. Giggly, cute, girly, fashionable. She’s nice thought and tries to always smile. But don’t get on her bad side or she will do everything in her power to destroy you. Unlike her brother she will often start talking to other guys. Even flirt a little just to get the attention. Though, she’s not stupid. In fact, her grades are better than David’s. Despite that, she loves her brother above all else.

Occupation at the Bakery: Frequent visitor.

History: Just like her brother she too lived in France for most of her life, where she was quite popular in school. Unlike David, she didn’t like cooking that much, but loved eating. When she arrived in Japan, her popularity at school rose rather quick again, and she loves the attention.

[Mivuli]

Name: Theodora Phillips

Age: 15 years

Appearance:
Theodora has cropped black hair and green eyes, and is of middling height. Rather thin and lightweight, she has a sharp defiant jaw, that is often clenched in retaliation, or locked to hold back her words. She is pale, and not much of a looker, with smooth, pebble-stone cheeks and none of those prominent cheekbones that American actresses keep inheriting. Her hairstyle was born of a salon visit gone wrong, and it hasn't changed since.

Personality: Outspoken, aloof and shameless, Theodora (who also goes by Theo) has never enjoyed conforming to society's expectations. She will keep to herself, or otherwise lash out at others with a curt and brusque tongue. She can easily come across as arrogant, and selfish, considering the way she holds herself distantly from the rest. In reality, Theodora has simply made it a habit to keep people at arm's length to avoid possible complications. Lord knows she's downright hopeless at keeping civil relationships with anyone she can't tolerate, or vice-versa. Few have ever stuck around long enough for Theo to know how good of a friend she can be - if at all. Intelligent in her own right, Theodora often finds great solace in her books and laptop, and can be found toting the two around in her trademark sling bag occasionally.

Occupation at the Bakery: Cashier, waiter

History: As someone who has grown up in Southeast Asia but bears a Westerner's last name, Theodora has never fit into one specific category, and knows what it means to not belong. Her features are distinctly Asian, save her striking green eyes. Her father gave her his eyes and surname, but only went so far in terms of fatherly duty. As a businessman who often travelled, Phillips simply didn't have much time to spend at home with his daughter and wife. Theodora's Chinese mother didn't seem to mind her husband's absence as much as Theo thinks she should have. Her parents were timid at best, performing limited acts of domesticity in the stilted pockets of time they scrapped together throughout Theodora's childhood. Theodora assumes that love is not to be a prominent aspect of one's life, and has never been in a relationship, though she imagines it would be boring and dry, a skittish dance for two similar to the one she observed from her parents.
Theodora was from an early age raised in a conservative society. Predictably, she has spent the better part of her life moulding her image into something that went against the traditional order, with almost childish stubbornness. Her mother was fragile at times - being a single mother could be taxing, Theo supposed - and though Theodora wasn't half-bad at keeping her mother, herself and the household running, she has since foresworn weakness or dependencies, and vowed to avoid them like the plague. She'd like to think she's done well so far.
Moving to Japan meant uprooting herself from the environment she'd spent her entire life in. But she wasn't too heartbroken over it then, and is utterly apathetic about it now. It was her mother's idea for her to properly entrench herself in the new community, by finding some stability in the unfamiliar. Theodora does not know how the bakery is to factor into her mother's master plan, but she cares too little to argue.
