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
Not a single person here is a bad writer. Not one. I have been so entranced with the stories here that I find myself eagerly awaiting every single new post. Even if my characters aren't involved, I really adore every moment of the tale we're writing here. So thank you all, for letting me be part of something incredible, interesting, and so freakin' fun! <3
@AirBender I will contact them, but you don't need to wait on them by any means. :) There is no specific posting order - just don't post twice in a row.
And you can add a third character if you like, or play them as NPCs! It's up to you, just let me know!
Namine was surprised to hear a knock at her door so quickly after boarding. Of course, it was unexpected that it would be the staff but what would one of the Thirteen need from her? Gently, she opened the door and poked her head out to see the spiky red head standing in front of her room... with salmon. This group never ceased to amuse her. And terrify her. It was strange how easily she was perturbed by them. They could either act like gentle puppies or snap a heartless in two with their bare hands. It made her heart race anxiously just to think about it.
Slowly, she opened the door fully and looked at him, and then the plate, inquisitively. "Uhm... No thank you?" She replied, trying not to laugh at the oddness of it. His second question made it very clear what he was here for, though, and Namine smiled with her arms crossed. "I... guess. Probably. Why, are you out already?" Of course, Axel was notorious for the amount of product he used in his hair. It was always a joke with them, and she had to give him a good poke in the ribs every now and again.
Zexion
Zexion continued to wander around the deck, looking around at the few people who had already made their way out to wander around like he was. The view wasn't exactly great, even on the deck, as the smog from the port town made such an ugly haze. Seriously, were cruises really as "magical" as people said they were? He felt pretty disinterested in the whole thing. The only reason he came along was because he might have the chance to relax on his own, for once... And Xemnas wouldn't let him stay at the castle.
I don't know why he was so insistent on this trip... This boat isn't going to do anything for us. Sighing, he made his way back inside the ship to see what entertainment there was on board. Most of it was loud and annoying - arcades, live shows, dancing, drinking, etc. Even the shops were glitzy and starting to fill up with people. There was a single bookshop on board that he quite enjoyed, but even that was mostly best-sellers and over-hyped teen dramas that the staff surely knew would sell well. It was also bright and not at all quiet like the dark, comfortable study back at the castle. He might find a book or two in there at some point, but for now he continued his adventure through the ship.
The quietest place on board was honestly in the hallways where rooms were lined up beside each other, but even those were currently full of people. Zexion was a bit annoyed at just how little solace he had holed up in this ship with all of these people. I thought it would be a bunch of old people who didn't make much noise... As he walked, he noticed Xion also wandering the ship. Was she looking for somewhere quiet, as well? Probably not... It wasn't like her. If anything, she was admiring the new adventure. With another sigh, he continued to walk, hoping she wouldn't notice him and try to spark a conversation; he was never good with small talk.
ScarletRain Day 17 - Afternoon - Lvl 15 @Zelosse@Haeo
Scarlet kept her gaze fixed on the ground as silence seemed to fall over the group. After a moment, she could hear her grandfather's voice, and something in her chest ached to hear the sad tone in it. She knew that he had only been trying to make her happy. She knew that he was trying to help her heal from it all. But even so... Things weren't going to just get better. Nothing was going to go away, especially this pain. The feeling that she drove her parents away just by being born lingered with her always. Why didn't she tell him? Well...
"I tried to tell you." Her voice practically came out as a whisper. "I tried to tell Mom, too. You both just kept insisting that it wasn't my fault, that everything would be fine... Here, have another piece of cake. Here, let's go see a movie on a weekday. Nothing's wrong, everything's fine, nothing fucking terrible happened..." The tears fell even harder as her shoulders shook under the weight of her grief. "I wanted to talk about it... not pretend it had never happened. Mom didn't want me to have to face it, and neither did you. But ignoring it and just going about our business..." Her gaze looked up sharply at Dom, then, filled with pain and discomfort. "You sent me to fucking school! The day after my mom abandoned me! You said I shouldn't let it hold me back, that I shouldn't be sad from Mom's mistake, but... damn it, I wasn't ready to move on! I'm still not!"
Without warning, she leapt forward and hugged her grandpa tightly with both arms, something she hadn't done since her mom was around years ago. "I-I want my mom and dad! I-I didn't want to drive them away... I-I tried to be good... I-I tried..." Scarlet felt all of the aching and pain from her life in this moment, and all she could do was cling to Dom in a desperate cry for comfort. After her dad had left, as a child, she turned to her grandpa for anything she would have asked him. He was more of a dad to her than he seemed to understand. But he stopped all of the little things she had loved when her mom left. Though they still spent time together, it wasn't her reaching out to him but rather him reaching out to her. She wasn't watching Letterman with him, he was watching whatever Disney show she wanted. She wasn't sneaking cookies behind his back, she was being given them for no reason. They were slight differences, where she would get what she wanted, but it wasn't as enjoyable. Something about getting what she wanted didn't feel as real. Life felt fake and the virtual world felt real. It was fucked up, and in this moment she realized that she did not want that, anymore.
Scarlet was surprised to hear what the old man said about failing as a parent. Did he really think he'd failed? No, he had done a great job. The problem was when he changed without realizing it. He had altered his parenting to suite her special case of abandonment, which was not what she wanted. "You didn't fail, Grandpappi..." She sniffled, looking up at him. "I... I really loved Daddy... H-He's the one who made the stupid choice, right...?" Tenderly, she wiped her eyes and then took a step back to see him more clearly. A little smile formed on her lips. "D-Didn't you always tell me that...? Whenever I even thought Daddy leaving might be my fault... or Mom..." She now took a moment to compose herself before placing a finger on the middle of his forehead. "Besides... Like hell I could forget a crazy old bat like you." Scarlet gave her grandpa a genuine smile now, the first in a long time, as she felt a warmth close over her heart. "I don't hate you, Grandpa... I'm sorry..."
She felt better, honestly. All she had really needed was to cry, a bit. It felt good to get all of this off her chest. Now he understood... Was there time to fix anything? She didn't know. What she did know was that she knew her grandpa just a little bit better, and she knew that he did love her. That was most important, right now. Hopefully he understood that she cared for him, as well. Not that she'd ever call him Dad or anything like that... but she did appreciate him. I know those times aren't ever coming back... I know my parents won't ever come home... A bit of her heart still felt sad, but the patches were sewn one by one. This was real healing.
Now her attention was drawn to Smart, who appeared rather... sad. And in pain. If anyone of the two looked old, it was him. She slowly made her way over to him, not quite sure what to say but knowing that she needed to say something. After all, she had practically been raised by him, as well. He always had her best interests at heart, even if he was not as direct about it as her grandfather had been. Smart was sort of how Dom used to be to her, in the way that she felt she could go to him when she needed. Yet, something about him not being blood family kept her from ever really doing that. Even if he had always been there caring for her... She sort of realized, in this moment, how little she had opened up to him. Perhaps it was because she had been bitter about her mom dumping her in that home, she didn't want anything to do with the things - or people - around her.
Shyly, she walked up to Smart and stood in front of him, gazing at her feet as she shifted nervously. Scarlet sort of looked like a child getting in trouble, in this moment. "U-Uhm... D-Dan..." Once she had his attention, she looked up at him with an awkward smile. "You... You don't need to worry." Slowly, he hand went up to cover her injured eye. She knew. His expression always gave away what he was thinking, and right now she knew that he was worried about the eerie cloudiness she had revealed. "I mean... I don't think it'll be alright. Not this time. But that's... that's okay, right...?" Tears filled her eyes as, for the first time, she opened herself up to Smart. "I-I know I never really went to you when I had problems... Y-You were always there, and I never talked to you... I-I'm sorry..." Gently, she wrapped her arms around him and buried her face in his shoulder to hide the fresh tears. "I'm sorry, U-Uncle Dan..."
Nyeeeeh... I'm so impatient I wanna pooooost.... But I don't wanna just skip Tracy. >_<" But I also want to address Edgar, somehow, but I also want to see his reaction to her finally stepping in...
