Strangest Love

Mhh well there's sadly only one role left. I would definitely play the partner to the female hero, but the point is that I'd only like to play a female myself. And if the writer isn't interested in a woman/woman relationship, I am sorry. Let me know :)

Alycia Demetria Roels

Interactions: @MissCapnCrunch's body

Alycia's deep sleep had slowly turned into a light slumber. She didn't know how long she slept for, but she knew she didn't wanna wake up yet. Something bugged her, a noise that clearly came from far away. But the noise got louder. She forced her eyes to remain closed and tried to blend it out. What was this? It was disturbing her sleep. Her back felt weird. She probably had slept in an unusual position again, the best mattress couldn't win against the positions her body liked to perform during her sleep. If only the noise would shut up...

Was this the bathroom? But the bathroom didn't sound like this. And it wasn't this loud, this close to her ear. Now it suddenly felt like the noise was right beside her and with a burst of panic her eyes flew open and she sat up. Her back hurt, but she ignored it as her eyes quickly worked on getting used to the new light.

And then her heart froze. It really felt like it froze, ice in her veins, closing around her heart. She felt cold. Where am I? Alycia was in denial for about thirty seconds, in which she didn't move a muscle or breathed. Then her lungs forced her to take a breath and she realized that this was either very real or a new game technology that sent the player straight into the game, making them forget that they're in a game during the usage of said technology. But that was... science-fiction, right? Such technology didn't exist yet. Of course technology existed that made your gaming experience more real. Weird glasses that showed you the environment of your game when sitting upon your nose. The best headphones that were so soft in your ears, you forgot they were in there. All those kind of things. But she had never heard of something that felt so real. She could feel the ground beneath her - it was hard and cold and rocky. And as she touched the ground she once again heard the noise, a noise that had woken her up, that had sounded so far away but really has been close all along.

Is that... a freaking waterfall? Alycia's eyes widened as panic rose in her chest. She forced herself to breathe and settle her emotions. Panic wouldn't help her in this situation. Panic wouldn't solve the problems. This can't be real. There is no way that a place like this exists. And if it does, there is no way a person could simply get into my home and want to put me right here in this place. It doesn't make sense. She remembered the person on the internet that had asked all those questions... about a game. It was the last memory she had about the day. How much time has passed anyway? And was this the game? Or was there never a game? Was this just a crazy kidnapper?

"And they used to say 'be careful on the Internet' so many years ago." Her voice was just a whisper. She stood up, her body felt a little weak but within a few minutes her legs had learned how to stand and walk again. She looked at the beautiful waterfall. Whoever took me here likes nature. Or maybe just waterfalls?

Alycia shook her head and attempted to look around her surroundings but then she saw a figure lying on the ground a couple feet away. How did she not notice her before? Alycia was quickly dropping next to her, she reached out and softly touched her arm. "Hello?" No response. "Hello?! Can you hear me?" The figure was a young female, almost still a child according to her looks. She brushed the hair out of the person's face and felt extremely weird doing it, but she needed to see if there was a reaction on the face. She wasn't dead... was she?

"Can you hear me? Please wake up." The woman started to panic again. Dead... Dead, she wasn't dead, was she? She grabbed her wrist and put two fingers onto a vein. In silence she concentrated on the heartbeat inside of the wrist. And there was a heartbeat. The girl was alive! Alycia wasn't sure what to do and she definitely didn't know how she got there, but she found herself holding her hands into the water beneath the waterfall and then walked back to the girl with some water pooling within the shells that she had formed with her hands. And then she dropped the water onto the girl's face, hopefully to wake her up. She was careful when doing so, she didn't want all of her hair to get wet with the water - it was supposed to land on her face after all.

Alycia watched the girl's face with worry as she waited for her to show any reaction. Please wake up. I can't do this alone. I don't wanna be alone in this situation.

Valentina Roscoe

Location: Madam Malkin's Robes For All Occasions

---

A breeze of air danced over Valentina's face and through her long brown hair. On her hips sat a one-year-old tiny baby boy with messy brown hair, longer at the top than at the sides. He sucked on his hand. The mother of both the children was digging around in her purse, two bags hanging off her arm. "Moooom", Valentina whined.

"Oh Merlin's beard, Val, shush for a second, would ya?", the black haired woman scolded her eleven-year-old. Valentina had been a pain in her ass for three days, today by far being the worst. "Luciana! Where is she again?" The woman moved her head around, searching for the face of her fifteen year old daughter. "So help me Merlin, Romeo do not turn out like them!" She shot the little one-year-old on Valentina's hip a look and then pulled some money out of her purse. "Here. Go over with your sister and get new robes for the both of you!" She shoved the coins into Luciana's hand, who had appeared behind the woman. Luciana took the money and Valentina watched her mother close her purse again.

"Where will you g- AAAAH!!" - "ROMEO!", the mother scolded and unwrapped the hand of the mischievous boy from around Valentina's hair. The girl rubbed her head where she felt the pain. "I am going to get a few things for the household we need. Floo powder for example. Since this one has knocked the pot all over the place and played with it!" Helenora, the mother, shook her head at her rascal son and smiled at her two daughters now. "How big you are getting!"

"Moooom!", Valentina shook her head. "Not here. Come on, Lucia. Let's find Ramona." Valentina shoved the boy back into her mother's arms and went to walk off, Luciana right behind her.

"Watch out for her!", the mother yelled after her older daughter. "And tell Ramona I will be right there!" The girls didn't stop to answer their mother. Valentina walked through the masses of people. Today was a busy day in the Diagon Alley. The girl knew her ways through the streets with closed eyes, she had grown up visiting the Diagon Alley almost weekly. Her father owned a little shop here and the kids had begged their mother to take them for visits on a weekly basis.

A little bell rang as Valentina pushed the door to Madam Malkin's Robes For All Occasions open and stepped inside. Luciana was still behind her. Contrary to Valentina, Luciana had blonde hair, almost golden hair and bright blue eyes. Ramona had teased her that she didn't look like their real sister and was adopted many times when they were little. Ramona was Valentina's other sister, the eldest with her nineteen years. She had dark hair like their mother and green eyes like Valentina.

The eleven-year-old looked around the room. There was another young student, maybe even a first year?, being served by Madam Malkin's right now. Madam Malkin flashed the two girls a bright smile as she saw them enter. "My dears! First year, isn't it time now?" Valentina nodded at her. "Oh my, and the beautiful Luciana, you grow so fast. A young woman already!" But they didn't have much more time to discuss their growing with the woman as a sharp voice cut through the room.

"Luci, Vali!", Ramona had entered through a door that clearly led to a storage room or the like. There were pins in her apron that set above her clothes and a tape measure around her neck. Her black hair was pulled back in a ponytail. She hugged her two sisters both at once and a pin poked Valentina into the arm. "Where'd you leave mom? Or does she not wanna see me?" The mood of the woman clearly dropped a little.

"Why wouldn't she wanna see you?", Vali asked her older sister. "She will be right over. Romeo knocked over the floo powder yesterday, remember? She is getting new stuff."

"And I think she wanted to get away from this one", added the blonde witch with a nod towards Valentina.

"I can imagine!" A laugh escaped Ramona's lips and she shoved Valentina next to the other girl, that Madam Malkin was busy with. She pulled the tape measure from her neck and started to measure her. "You better happen to be put into Hufflepuff, love. I couldn't bare another Gryffindor!" Luciana, the mentioned Gryffindor, didn't even bother to give her sister a single look. She had heard the teases many times and has teased the sister for several things herself. It was sisterhood, Valentina guessed. While Ramona was busy measuring Valentina - or rather watching as the tape measure did it alone! - Luciana roamed through the shop and looked at several gowns and hats with slight interest.

To Valentina's shock Ramona then nudged her and pointed to the girl a few feet beside her. "She is a first year too! Maybe you will be in the same house." Valentina shot the girl a shy smile. She wasn't usually that shy, it was just... Ramona... She was so enthusiastic and cheerful, it was kind of embarrassing to get dressed by your big sister.

"Hi", she said silently. "Sorry for her", she nodded towards Ramona like the one wasn't even there. The older girl just smiled and continued her work. Sisterhood.

@Erklings25 Actually, I am completely calm. I haven't criticized anyone's way of RPing. It was a simple conversation, but we definitely are spamming the OOC. I apologize for that. I'll drop the chit chatting now definitely ;)

But please don't address me as a man. It bugs me. Thank you very much. :)
