Hello I'm looking for roleplay buddies for the following fandoms

Forum: 1x1 Interest Checks
Hey, what's up? If you're still looking, I would be interested in doing a Sherlock rp with you
Count me in as well!
Ruby rolled over onto her side with a loud groan. She squinted her closed eyes even tighter to keep her vision completely black which was starting to seem impossible given the light streaming in through the windows.
With another agitated groan, Ruby rolled back over onto her back, pulling the covers over her naked body and feeling the soft, warm pulses from a body next to her on the bed.
Wait...body?
Ruby sat up quickly, cursing under her breath as she opened her eyes and the light hit her hangover straight-on, swaying her first priority of finding out who she had been sleeping with the night before.
Jake slowly opened his eyes and sat up in bed. He stretched his arms out, thankfully not hitting his guest. He rubbed his hair and looked towards Ruby, "Good morning, hope you slept well. That was a damn good night we had. Maybe we should do it again sometime."
Jake then got up and headed towards the bathroom to take care of some business."If you want anything to eat or drink, you can go ahead and get it." He said through the door.
Ruby blinked a couple times, trying to push past the pain now pounding through her head. she watched as the boy got up and left the bedroom, feeling her stomach starting to churn at the mention of food. thats when reality hit her harder than her hangover. She frantically swivelled her head left and right trying to find a clock, praying to God that she wasnt late.
"Shit!" Ruby sprinted out of bed and scrambled for her clothes. Granny was just going to live with the fact that she was not only late, but incredibly hung-over and wearing the same thing she wore yesterday. What bugged Ruby the most, however, wasnt Granny's wrath, but missing Knox. Who was going to bring him his cheese fries?
"Hey, you alright in there?" Jake asked over the sound of a flushing toilet and running water. He opened the door and stepped out to the sight of Ruby scrambling to put clothes on. "You seem to be in a hurry." Jake put his own set of clothes on before continuing, "If you need to get somewhere, it'll be quicker if I take you."
"Yeah...if I could get...a ride...to Granny's..." Ruby breathed out attempting to strap on her heels while standing. "That would be great." She sat down on the edge of the bed, having given up on the impossible feat and finished getting her shoes on before looking up at his direction. "Uh...you...got a car?" She asked tenatively, racking her brain for any information as to what happened after the storage room closet at The Rabbit Hole. Just how[\I] did she even [I]get[\I] here anyway?
Jake grabbed the keys to his jeep, "Well, yeah. How else would I get around town? This apartment's on the town's edge, wouldn't make much sense to walk everywhere, especially if it was raining. Anyway, if you wanna make good time, you might wanna start hobbling over here to the door. I'll meet you outside. It's the red Jeep with the roof cover pulled back." Jake then stepped out and onto the landing. The apartment was pretty decent, especially for the price. He walked down the stairs and out into the parking lot, waiting for Ruby to catch up to him.
God Ruby hated 'the morning afters.' They were always so awkward when the guys started talking about doing it again and offering rides and what-not. She quickly tied her white shirt together in the front and headed out of the apartment behind Jake, attempting to smooth out her hair as she reached the jeep and got in. She pulled down the passenger-side mirror and pulled out a small red tube of lipstick from her red bra and applied it generously to her lips and then afterwards reached back into her bra and pulled out eyeliner and mascara and did the same, freshening up her eyes.
"Damn, you hide everything in there, don't you." Jake hopped in the driver's seat and and started the engine. A resounding [i] huumm came next. He pulled the jeep out of the parking lot and drove off down the road. Jake glanced over at Ruby every now-and-then, seeing her trying to freshen up before getting back on the job. "If it makes you feel any better, I don't really have any feelings from last night. And if you ever wanna remember what happened, just let me know, I'll fill you in on all the details."
Ruby shot him an almost shy side-glance as she finished up on her makeup, the corner of her now ruby red lips turning up into a smirk.
"That bad was I?" She asked keeping her smirk. She really must have been out of it for him to bring it up; but where she should have probably been embarassed about it, she just shrugged and put her makeup items back in their hidden places in her bra. Clearly, this wasn't any sort of news to her. Once she checked herself out the best she could in the tiny viser window, she reached into her pocket and pulled out her phone, frowning when she realized that it was completely dead.
"Tell you what..." Ruby said putting the useless phone into Jake's lap, letting her hand linger just a little bit longer than it should have. "...charge this up for me and bring it by Granny's after my shift. Then you can fill me in on all the details." She gave Jake a flirty wink before turning to see that Granny's was just in sight and felt the jeep start to slow down.
"Sounds like a deal, then." Jake grabbed the phone and placed it in the center console. He pulled the car into the parking lot and gave Ruby a chance to hop out. As soon as she did, he drove off back to his place.
It was strange, she had gone to Granny's everyday for some kind of shift, being morning, afternoon or night, but this was the first time ever that just by looking at the building she felt butterflies beginning to rise up in her stomach, slowly metamorphasizing into what she was sure was raging bulls. What the hell was Knox doing to her?

What the hell was Knox doing to her?
A few more patrons walked through the door and shouted across the room, "Ay Jake, how you doing tonight?"
"Doing great Rocky, you havin' the usual tonight?" Jake replied while throwing a damp towel over his shoulder.
"You know it, my man. Gotta few friends with me too, they'll have the same."
"Comin' right up." Jake then grabbed a few glasses, put them on the bartop and grabbed a mix of bottles. He began mixing the drinks and creating one of his own unique drinks. Bottles were flipped and thrown all around, giving everyone a good show. After a few more seconds of bottle-twirling, Jake was finished. He slid the drinks down to the end of the bar where Rocky and his friends had taken their seats. "There you go, friend. Enjoy." Jake grabbed the towel from his shoulder and started cleaning the bartop off. He took a look around the place and saw that business was a little slow tonight. Maybe someone'll come in and liven the place up.
"You put that away a bit prematurely." Ruby said sliding into one of the bar stools in front of Jake and gave him a half-hearted smile. After she had parted ways with Knox at the hospital, it was hard to just...forget about him. She could have gone back home and got in an early night...but who was she kidding? There was still plenty of night-life left in Storybrooke, and she was determined to go out with a bang, even if she had to fake being happy at first.
Ruby tilted her head to the side slightly, causing her long, red and brown pigtails to swing to the same side.
"Can I get a green apple tini?"
"Of course, but just to let you know, my specialities are unique drinks. I can make anything. Hell, I'll even surprise you." He said returning a genuine smile.He pulled out a glass and started pouring up the ordered drink.
"God knows I could use a surprise right about now." Ruby mumbled to herself, letting her head rest in her hand with her elbow keeping it propped up on the table.
It only took a few seconds before he was finished. "And there we go, one green apple tini. Hope you like." Jake took a second to look at the woman in front of him. He knew who she was, and probably vice versa, but he can't remember the last time they actually met. Guess now was as good a time as any. "Everything going alright? Besides alcohol, I can't really help you out with surprises. Don't know when your birthday is, so we can't do that."
Ruby chuckled, but only slightly and grabbed the martini from him and took a small sip, and nodded in approval almost immediately. Setting the martini glass down on the bar, she reached into her open shirt and then her bra and pulled out the five, one-dollar bills that she had stored away, her winnings she had swindled from the guys earlier and handed it over to him.
"Oh yeah - everything's...great..!" She answered smartly with a harsh edge of sarcasm and took up the martini once more to give her something to do and took another drink. "You ever have one of those days where everything seems like it's working out great, and then it all just collapses in on itself before you even have time to blink?" She asked him curiously.
Jake let out a slight chuckle, "You've never been a bartender. Ya, I've had my fair share of days like that. I'de feel shitty all day, but the next day, I'm back to feeling fine. Just gotta push through 'em. They suck ass, but hey, what can you do?"
"I work at Granny's." Ruby reminded him. "I've done my fair share of being a bartender."
"You know what, keep your money. That drink's on the house. You seem like you needed it."
Ruby seemed to be nice and all, he's obviously heard the stories, but so far, she seems cool. Still plenty of night left, no telling where it'll end up.
Ruby's red lips turned up into a soft smile, seeming to lighten up her entire complexion.
"Hey, you should be my bartender more often. Jake...isn't it?" She asked. She could have just looked at the name-tag, but where was the fun with that? She had seen him enough around town to have learned his name beforehand and therefore didn't really need to second-guess herself.
"Always willing to help out a troubled soul, . . . Ruby isn't it?" He said shooting a tease. "Besides we get plenty of business around here. They won't notice it. All I ask is that you feel better with that drink, and that'll be payment enough, deal?" He began placing the bottles back too their original positions, still having his attention focused on Ruby.
Ruby tilted her head once more, looking upon Jake thoughtfully.
"When's your next break?" She asked almost out of the blue.
Jake looked at his watch, "In about five minutes. May I ask why you ask?"
Ruby's smile returned to her lips.
"I'm going to tell you something." She began and then pointed to her left where the pool tables were. "I'm going to be over there, waiting for your break. And when you come over to me, you're going to show me around the supply closet, and then you can see just how much better you can make me feel."
Ruby picked up what was left of her martini and drank the rest of the contents with a single gulp before returning the empty martini glass to the bar table and without another word, she hopped off of the stool and did exactly what she said she was going to do and went over to the pool tables.
Jake kept his composure the whole time, but his mind was obviously racing. The next five minutes flew by fast, and he quickly clocked out. He calmly made his way to where she was waiting, "Now I can give you the full tour." He grabbed her hand and guided her through the back of the building and into the supply closet, careful to keep anyway from seeing them. He shut the door behind them, and pulled her close. "So, how do you like the supply closet. Nice and roomie?"
Ruby just raised an eyebrow, resting her hands on his chest as he pulled her close, the look of a preditor gleaming in her eye.
"Just shut up and kiss me." She replied with a smirk, and too impatient to even wait for that, crashed her lips against his.

WooHoo!! I can post now!
This also might be a good time to tell you my schedule. I wont have access The Guild until late afternoon on weekdays, and I'm usually free on weekends, but I will try my best to be here as much as possible.
Anyway, WOO! I look forward to seeing all of yall on the other side!

Alright, here's the Storybrooke Counterpart!
Alright, hopefully this is a better CS than the last sheet. Again, if you see any problems, let me know and I'll fix ASAP.
EDIT: And the two are split!
EDIT: And the two are split!
Oh, ok. I get it now. Sorry about that, I'll go ahead and fix that.
Here you go! I'm not entirely sure if it fits up to your standards. If you see anything wrong with it, I will make the changes as soon as possible!
Yes, actually. I kinda like the idea of a Jack Frost character. Figured I'd give that a whirl.
