A little bit about my preferences


Good morning, day or night to you – depending on where in the world you are. Probably USA. Everybody on this site seems to be from the USA.



Ground Rules:


Grammar:
I L O V E good grammar, well-built sentences and good coding. If you write with headlines, centred or subbed text, colour coded dialogue, a nice balance between speech, thoughts and description I will never let you go. Ok? You're mine now. Although nobody's perfect and we all make mistakes every once in a while. That's fine.



Writing style:
I try to write in a way that let's my partner know what my character is thinking (to a certain degree) and gives them something to play off. I can't stand replies that are just descriptive and gives me nothing to build on.

Don't overdo IRL hobbies:
Using your passions and hobbies from IRL is great, but please don't overdo it. Example: If you're super into cars – that's fine. You can use your interests in the RP or make your OC have the same interest. Just don't expect me to necessarily share the same enthusiasm about cars. It's cool to bring in stuff you know a lot about, if presented in such a way that even a person with no knowledge on the subject can understand. Don't write me five paragraphs about what car engine you have and how you plan on changing the gear pack or whatnot in full detail. Rather, you should come pick up my character in your car and then teach me how to change a tire – together.

Google is our friend:
If I write something you don't understand, try to google it first. I have no problem with explaining things, but in many cases, you could probably figure it out just as well with a quick google search. Don't make me do your work for you. Of course, I will try to write in a way that either explains or lets the context explain if I bring up something specific.



Replies:
My schedule has become busier at the new year, so now I will only be able to answer once a week at most. Sorry.

Shared workload:
I want a PARTNER, not a leech. I expect us to share the work 50/50, and contribute to both the planning and the RP on equal ground. The same goes for me. If you feel like I'm not pulling my weight, tell me! Communication is key to everything good.

Genres:
I'm most accustomed to the slice of life genre. Although I am very open to other genres such as fantasy, science fiction, a specific time era, etc. As long as we can discuss the world building together.

Congratulations on making it this far down in the post. *Applause* Now, if you're feeling it thus far, just ask yourself one more question: Am I mature enough to tell it to somebody straight that I'm not interested in this RP anymore, for whatever reason? If yes, continue reading on A. If no, continue reading on B.

A.
Huzzah! I can't tell you how glad this made me. There are few things that's worse than getting properly invested in an RP, only to be left behind a few weeks later. No note, no nothing. It's a waste of both our times. But YOU'RE not like that! Pat yourself on the back. Good human. You've been raised well.

Details:
I'm up for either a long RP or several short ones. Let's figure out details together.
We RP over PM, with one IC chat and one OOC chat.
I really don't like are one-sided characters. Meaning: Super submissive, shy and embarrassed characters who only stutters, or super macho, dominating testosterone machines. I like the characters to be dynamic and have multiple layers and sides to their personality.

Ideas:

I am H O R R I B L E at coming up with plots. But I'm good at playing second fiddle and will try to contribute to a good story. Sorry, I'm just kind of lame like that.



Mad Max: Fury Road
I LOVE this movie. Seriously. It makes me so happy. I'd be interested in either doing a fandom inspired RP, or an OC RP just set in this world.
I mean, look at this dork. Too cute.




So yeah, that concludes the tour. I will update this if I think of anything more to add, obviously. If there's nothing to add there's nothing to update. Duh-doy.

Ha, how embarrassing it was supposed to clubbing in like the going to a night club sense. It has been fixed.


Ha ha, I see. Oh, how one typo can change the meaning of something so easily.
Ren White

The Old Starboard, Sunday Afternoon


Ren could only roll over when the person underneath him tried to get up, groaning as he moved his head too fast.

“I’ve heard about falling for a man, but this is ridiculous darling. I suppose most tend to buy me a drink first.”

Falling… Right. Looking like a drunk fool Ren had not only awkwardly left Marlin and Kei, but now he’d made himself look like an even bigger asshole by physically attacking this woman in the bathroom. Or… man? If so, a very pretty one. This was Ren’s third encounter with a stranger today. Well, third times the charm, right? Ren looked at the person. They were quite tall for a woman, but very slender and no curves. Ren’s head hurt too much for this sort of puzzle right now. “Falling – Yeah, no I –” Luckily he didn’t need to finish his uncoherent sentence before the other man spoke again.

“Do forgive my clumsiness…I presume I can be quite the ditz when I am drinking. I truly am sorry.”

“Oh no, no. This is all on me. I – ahh.” Ren tried to get into a sitting position, but his body had other plans, so he ended up in a half slump against the wall. The wo… Man spoke quite formal as he pulled out his clutch – Maybe woman then? – and applied some liquid to his hands. On the other hand, Ren himself was wearing a so-called man-purse for his books, so… The person had shoulder length, brown hair and piercing blue eyes – although it was a bit difficult to see due to his dilated pupils and flickering gaze.

A hand was extended in front of Ren, and he wiped his own on his pants before grabbing it, steadying himself on the wall as well while standing up. He muttered a thank you under his breath. The slim man continued speaking, the words coming out a little too fast. All Ren could do was stare dumbfounded at the person in front of him.

“Oh, my gosh I do hope that you were not an online date or something. That would be really embarrassing. I would feel even more terrible then I already do. I hope I am not always this terrible at first impressions. I hate to sound forward, but before I make a larger fool of myself could you please clue me in if I should know you or not. It seems I took quite the bump to the back of the head and things are still quite hazy daisy."

“Date…? Know me… I, uh. I was here alone, but now there’s those two strangers and… Eh.” Ren scratched the back of his head. “I don’t know about any dates, sorry.” The words were coming out all wrong, and Ren cursed inwardly as he could feel a slight blush on his cheeks. His mouth was broken. That had to be the explanation for all this gibberish. Was this man mistaking him for somebody else? He had a tiny smile on his lips. Ren cleared his throat after staring a little too long, trying to compose himself before continuing.

“This was all my fault. I hope you are not hurt in any way. Let me buy you that drink you mentioned as an apology at the very least.” Taking a deep breath, Ren held the bathroom door open for the man, as they walked back into the venue. Leading the way to the booth where Marlin and Kei were still chatting awkwardly he could hear Kei talking.「I just kind of go about living life as the days come」 Ren sat down on the bench and scooted over, making room for the stranger. Marlin and Kei stopped talking and there were a few seconds of silence at the table. Eyes flittering about, awkward coughs or fidgeting with loose threads on shirt hems before Ren started. “I owe this guy a drink. Can I get you anything while I’m at it?” Ren had never been good at apologies, but he felt like this was a good way to start. Even though he wasn’t quite sure why he wanted to get on everybody’s good side today.


@aladdin_sane @PrinceAlexus @Robo27


@aladdin_sane So I just have to ask: In your character bio is says that Sasha likes "cubbing". As this is a new word for me I had to google it, but there were two pretty different results that could both apply to him... :')
1. https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Cubbing
2. http://www.horseandhound.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?311678-whats-the-difference-between-hunting-and-cubbing

Just curious about which one it is xD
<Snipped quote by Furiosa>

Maybe. I kinda did not want to assume that they erred as it meant to be a busy bar. Was not sure if you wanted that to be noticed or not and was meant for Sasha.


Got it. I will write more detailed from now on to give hints as to who Rens actions applies to.
@Furiosa@Robo27

Working on a reply for both of ya.


Great! I'll just wait for @aladdin_sane to reply before I post more. But maybe @PrinceAlexus or @Robo27 heard the large thud from the bathroom? :')

@PrinceAlexus@Robo27

Great :) Just didn't know if someone might think I'm "micromanaging" or "using" their character wrong, but I'm glad that's not the case.

Then I'll just wait in suspense for your replies!
And another thought: Should we give a heads up here in the OOC chat when we're working on an IC post? To eliminate the chance of double posting (Not that it's been a problem so far, but who knows.)
Just a question about my writing style:

Is it okay the way I write now, quoting what others have said to me in my posts so Ren gets a chance to respond and/or think in between their comments, or is it just confusing? I try to make it clear who is speaking by copying the right colors and with paragraphs, but it might be more clear to me than to others. I write like this because I think it makes the dialogue more dynamic and not so divided, but if it's just confusing I shall stick to my own writing.
Ren White

The Old Starboard, Sunday afternoon


"Doctor, well then Mr DR. About as heavy as a flight manual."

Ren snorted at the attempt to mirror his own nickname joke. "Ren is fine."

As if coming out of thin air, the man from the bar was suddenly next to them. Ren looked up at the man, raising one eyebrow.

「Hi you two, sorry if I am being a bother, but I couldn't help but notice you guys gazing over in my general direction.」

Ren's face was back to a total look of boredom, with a sudden interest on a stain on the table and a faint trait of pink on his cheekbones.

「Maybe I am wrong, maybe I am right, but regardless I figured I might as well introduce myself to the two people that seemed to be looking at me.」 He pulled up a seat next to the pair and gave them a friendly smile.「My name's Kei Kinzo nice to meet you two.」

"That's a bit presumptuous, don't you think? Maybe we just wanted the waiter's attention." Ren rolled his eyes and leaned his head away from the man. Kei, apparently.

Ren was starting to get dizzy again. His palms were sweaty and it dawned on him lunch yesterday had been his last meal, and maybe that wasn’t his best idea ever. "I'm Ren." He chocked out, still not looking at Kei, before he abruptly stood up again. "Bathroom, sorry." As he left the booth he could hear Marlin introduce herself vaguely.

"Marlin, though if your being formal, Marilania, Romus, Olympus…"

Ren didn't really have to use the bathroom, he just had to get up. The stress from his studies and his family had been building up, and apparently today was a day just as good as any to get a meltdown. It didn't help that Ren wasn't feeling like himself today either. He would usually bite strangers head off if they tried to talk to him, but for some reason he just couldn't bring himself to do that today. He walked quick paced over to the bathroom.

Pressing his eyes closed, hoping it would shut out the pulsation in his head, Ren pushed the door open just as a man was leaving. Ren was almost a head taller than the man and it took him a little too long to notice him. He had too much momentum from his stride and stepped on the man's foot before he could stop, but then his head started spinning again – and he toppled over and took the man with him in his fall. They landed in an awkward tangle on the floor. "Ugh…" Ren hit his head against the wall in the fall, and was even more dizzy now than he was from before.
