Bio
HI THERE~!
Thank you for visiting my profile!
You can call me Destiny. I am a 26-year-old pansexual woman from the USA who has been roleplaying since 2007. I got my start on a Kingdom Hearts fan-forum, and now here I am! My roleplaying interests include slice-of-life, romance, drama, fantasy, and anime fandom. Did I mention I am a HUGE otaku? :D
I write at a high-casual/advanced level as far as the amount of content I write per-post, but I'm not into flowery language most of the time. My writing is very simple, with a lot of the focus being on the characters and how their thoughts and feelings are developing. Realism is the name of my game! This stems from the fact that, when I am not roleplaying or slaving away for a large technology conglomerate at my day job, I am working on plays and films as a professional actress. With this being my passion, it's quite literally my job to pick apart each character's brain to find the motivation behind their words and actions. I'm just saying, that kind of obsession shows in my writing.
For my partners, I mostly do 1x1 RPs unless a group really catches my eye. I expect 2-3 paragraphs per post and prefer those who can respond at least once a day. Original stories catch my eye more than fandoms, but I don't rule anything out until I've tried it- trust me, if something's not working I'll let you know. I do not write smut, but if it is story-driven I will consider 18+. I'm really not picky; these are just guidelines for how to *guarantee* I will love our RP! I've been surprised before!
A fair warning in advance: I'm also a little crazy. I am diagnosed with Anxiety and Depression, so if I am feeling off I may just stop responding. My mental health does come first. Rest assured, I will pick up the pieces and clear my head enough to reply soon. I use my writing as an outlet, so I can never stay away more than a couple of days. That being said, my Guild partners are my family. Y'all have helped me through the worst times of my life and continue to remind me why I'm still alive on this Earth. So just know that I am here to do the same for any of you, even if we've just met. :)
Anywho, if this sounds like your thing then shoot me a PM! I swear I'm friendly, albeit a little strange, and I don't bite (hard)! <3
Mmm... So warm... Scarlet did not awake easily from the deep unconsciousness she had fallen into. There were no dreams, no images, yet her body felt the weight of a long night's sleep. As she began to break through the haze of her slumber, she felt a heat beside her that was foreign, yet oddly comfortable. It was only when she felt a warmth in an unusual place that she began to realize that she was not somewhere familiar. Her mind slowly awakened as she peeked open one eye, afraid of the bright light that would greet her. Much to her surprise, she was instead met with the face of a very flustered man close to her own. However, by the time her brain understood just what was pressing against her breast, the man disappeared.
Startled, she sat up quickly to see him on the ground and immediately regretted her decision. A stifled scream escaped her lips as she bent over, hugging her arms around her aching body. Nothing was scratched or bruised, but everything ached as if she had just gotten done with a terrible workout. Damn this realistic game! Carefully this time, she sat up and gingerly lowered her arms. An unexpected breeze then caressed her bosom, and she looked down to see most of her clothing had been replaced with bandages. That's right! I got hurt... Her face flushed red at the realization that there were two men in this room. So one of them... One of them must have...
Now Scarlet was on red alert. She immediately leapt from the bed to press herself against the wall, one hand wrapped around her barely-covered chest. Her skirt and gloves remained on, but her stockings, armor, and shirt had been removed to apply the bandages. She was a mess of dirt and tangled hair, and even though she was completely covered by the bandages she did not trust these men. In fact, she didn't trust anyone. Never again. Her gaze darted around for her axe, which she was relieved to see sitting in the corner of the room.
As all of these surprises greeted her, however, something much more astounding came to her attention. The hand she had pressed to the wall slowly dropped as she relaxed out of her tensed state. A look of confusion washed over her expression instead, and she gazed long and hard at the masked man before finally speaking.
"My vision..." Her shaking hand reached up to her right eye as the realization set in. "It's... dark..." Scarlet's heart sank for a single, terrified moment. "I... I can't see out of it... I-I can't see...!!
It was true. Looking at her, you could see all of the scars and wounds were gone with the bandages and potions, but her right eye now appeared duller, as if covered with a milky film rather than shining the beautiful amber color it had been, before. What is this?!?!
@Zelosse I was thinking of skipping to morning like we did with Sapphira. Recover, then Scarlet will have a very specific need to complete the quest in the gorge ASAP... :)
Cinera found it hard to control the crying as she held her friend. Now they were both crying and holding each other, like a lost mother and child who had just been reunited. There was fear, there was relief, and there was mourning. Mostly for the scar inflicted upon Sapphira's ear. The whole thing was puzzling, and Cinera felt her heart ache at her cries of anguish. She knew that Sapphira really valued her ears and tail, and that the character design was also good for her business. Without them, she looked ragged and beaten down. They had all assumed those would heal once Sapphira drank a potion, but much to their surprise the scars remained even as the blood disappeared.
"How... How could this happen?" Cinera reached up and gingerly touched the cut ear, seeing that the skin had been sealed up even though the ear was split. This was starting to feel even less like a game than it had, before. It was even worse that actual players - real life people - had cruelly done this to her friend. Why would somebody want to do that to another person? She took Sapphira's hand in her own as she sat beside her, keeping her arm protectively around her small, and now seemingly frail, shoulders. "Why would these 'Glitch Fixers' be after you...?" She asked gently, glancing worriedly at Delcastle. Even he was fading fast, as it was now morning. It seemed that he had not slept at all in the night. They certainly weren't in any condition to go exploring today, so she was relieved when he sent out the PM to the rest of the guild. Maybe now wasn't the time to discuss all of this. Sapphira was distraught, and Delcastle was all but half-asleep.
Gently, she turned to Sapphira and placed a hand on one shoulder, using her other to wipe away her friend's tears. "Well, whatever the case, you're safe now. We can talk about it once you're feeling better. For now, we should all probably just rest. You should eat something too, Sapphira." Cinera reached over to grab the tray of food Delcastle had brought and gave it to her friend. "Here. Eat as much as you want. We're not going to leave your side until we figure this out, okay? So don't worry." A bright, comforting smile crossed her face before she turned to Delcastle. "And you." She stood and put one hand on her hip, completely giving into her maternal instincts with these two. "You've been nothing but business for days, now. You barely even gave yourself a chance to relax, yesterday. You need to stay out of your inbox and get some sleep." She gave him an awkwardly stern look, feeling weird telling him what to do, but deep down she was honestly concerned. It wasn't healthy to push yourself too hard. He might be the guild leader, but he didn't need to feel like he needed to do everything by himself. I'm here, too... I can at least take care of this, right...?
Fuck... Fuck!!! Scarlet sees the shadows sort of jolt as they spot her, and two of them immediately began to move toward her. Her heart nearly leapt out of her chest as she panicked and scrambled, trying to get away before the monsters reached her. The dog-like creature seemed as if it would attack her, and she whimpered in her helplessness. All she could do was flail about, grasping at dirt and rocks in a struggle to at least crawl away, but anytime she moved pain shot through her whole body. Blood gushed through the fingers over her eye as tears fell from her good one. I-I don't want to die here...! As the shadows grew closer, she curled up to protect herself as best she could. Her body trembled as she gaped. "G-Grandpa..." She whimpered pathetically, for once sounding like the little child she was.
Just as she braced for an attack, the shadows stopped beside her and came into view. The dog was actually some sort of strange creature - she couldn't quite place what it was - and the other figure was some sort of masked person. Players... They're players... Tears of pain and relief continued to fall from her eyes as she gazed upon these new faces. As frightened as she was in this moment, they seemed kind enough. It was just difficult to focus on anything with her whole body screaming in pain. "H-Help me..." She sobbed, now reaching both hands to cover the bloody mess on her face. It felt like her face would fall apart if she didn't hold it together. Her face was pale, with strands of red hair tangled and crusted with blood that had already dried. Her body was mangled and scratched from the rocks and covered with dirt. All in all, she was an absolute mess. A frightened, beaten-down mess. Even with her HP at almost half, she was surprised at how painful this felt. It's just a game. It's just a game...!
She saw the window for the party invite and trade pop up, but she had a hard time selecting them. Her vision was blurred and her body wouldn't stop shaking in anguish. Scarlet could barely hear the words of the person helping her through her own sobs and whimpers. "I-I don't wanna die... P-Please...! P-Please, no... I-It hurts! I-It hurts..." This was a rare moment for her, where she didn't try to hold up appearances. All of her fear was on display, all of the pain made visible to the world. She wanted to go back to her room, back where everything was safe and her grandfather didn't act like her stupid parents. Where she at least had one person behind her.
After some effort, she was able to accept the invite. Her arm dropped back to the ground though as her consciousness began to fade. The loss of blood had been slowly draining her HP, and she had now just barely fallen into the red. The stranger seemed to rush and help her, but her gaze was drawn distantly to the fight behind her. Scarlet saw the creature was aiming for her. Who... are these people...? The other player was injured in this battle and fell beside her. She hadn't ever thought people would risk their lives for her, even if she begged like the helpless child she tried so hard not to be. As the warmth of a healing potion ran through her, she closed her eye and drifted off into darkness.
@Tracyarmav I appreciate it! I ended up home sick from work today (I always feel guilty about that), but half a bottle of cough syrup later I'm finally feeling a bit better. :) And I'm caught up on watching Haikyu lol. Should have a post up in the next day or so. Thanks for the patience. <3
Sorry if it takes me a bit to reply... I'm feeling very sick right now and I've got basically nonstop work all week so by the time I get home I might not be conscious... >_<"
