I'm so terrible at keeping up with posting. I promise I'll get something soon!
Sorry I haven't posted yet. I've been pretty distracted by my mother's new kittens.
I'm interested in a few of these pairings, particularly the WW II ones.
For once Lana saw a great advantage in living fairly close to the District 2 Justice Building. It allowed her to access it quickly and easily in the case of the annual Reaping. It, of course, was a pretty huge deal in District 2 where children who had been training for years would finally take their chance at honour and glory. Lana herself was determined to do this and wasn't about to let any of the others get in her way. This was only made clearer as she gave hard cold glances at the other girls who had begun arriving behind her. Among them was at least one familiar face: Amy. "going for it too this year I presume?" Lana asked the larger and slightly older girl whom she had spent time training with. She acknowledged Lana's words and simply nodded. This put a smirk on Lana's face. There could only be one female tribute this year and she was determined to make it her.
Once signed in with the Peacekeepers as was customary every year, Lana positioned herself within the section for seventeen year old girls. Certainly the sense of segregation that occurred at the Reaping was technically less strictly enforced in Districts 1 and 2 as there was always somebody eager to volunteer, but by this point it was simply traditional. Tradition was always something important to the Capitol as Lana very well knew. Of course, this tradition only minutes later was accompanied by the usual protocol of a Capitol escort making an appearance and a short speech. It took a few seconds for Lana to recall the flaming red haired escort's name as Junia. Once she began speaking though, Lana listened even if she did know much of the Capitol's propaganda off by heart now. If anything, it simply served as a reminder to her as to why she intended to volunteer. The video that followed definitely helped in that mindset as well.
"This is the moment I'm sure you've all been waiting for! The moment we determine our District 2 tributes for the 74th Annual Hunger Games! As usual, we'll start with the ladies. May the odds be ever in your favour!" Junia finally announced once the Capitol's propaganda video ended. Unlike what was protocol in the other districts, Junia barely managed to put her hands near the transparent glass orb before each of the girls began trying to shuffle their way to the front. Lana knew she was fortunate already to be so close, thus she shoved some of the others behind her and stepped out to the side, fully exposing herself. She glanced around for several seconds before finally opening her mouth, about to scream out the words that would have been dreaded by parents in any of the other districts.
"I volunteer as tribute!" Lana finally bellowed out just before a pair of Peacekeepers proceeded to escort her up to the stage where Junia and the recent victors of District 2 were present. She knew that at least one of them would be mentoring her, or two if she was lucky. It was well-known that District 2, along with District 1, had such large victor pools that they could often send along two mentors for their pair of tributes. Lana didn't dwell on this for too long though before Junia made her announcement for the boys to get their tribute. Just as with the girls, each one began struggling to the front until finally a single boy stood out and bellowed the exact same words that Lana had just moments earlier.
"Well there you have it, our District 2 tributes for the 74th Annual Hunger Games, Lana Viano and Mason Hua! May the odds be ever in their favour!" Junia announced once both tributes were firmly on stage and had given their names. This was met with immediate applause from all the proud families and wannabe tributes from District 2. It was perhaps the most damning evidence that the reapings in both Districts 1 and 2 were much different from those in the rest of Panem where only dread and sorrow were typically expressed as parents were forced to part with their children.

Yes, I will do that actually.
Excellent! Did you have any plot ideas? I have managed to think up one.
I've been on quite the Harry Potter kick lately so have developed a craving for a RP based in the HP universe. I don't have any specifics for plot just yet, but my only requirement really is that we will be playing OC's(sorry, I don't play other people's characters, for numerous reasons). Anyway, with that out of the way I am seeking a partner who is willing to help create a plot and storyline with me. This is roleplay, thus a joint effort.
Other than the above mentioned my main preferences are:
-Somebody who can write. I do consider myself a more advanced roleplayer, typically writing a minimum of three paragraphs per post. Ideally I'm looking for somebody who can match that.
-Somebody who is not bothered by mature content. As we all know, Harry Potter is a rather dark story and only progresses as such as the series moves along. That means our RP will inevitably include violence, death, and all that other lovely stuff.
-Somebody who is active. I'm typically online daily so just love having posts to respond to every day. I don't expect multiple posts in one day since I understand most people have more of a life than I do, but having at least something daily would be ideal. I do understand if life issues come up and prevent that though, but that's what OOC communication is for.
If you feel you meet these requirements then feel free to post here and/or PM me. I'm usually fast at responding!

Is this still open? I've been craving a good HP RP for awhile.
Excellent, I look forward to seeing this progress :).
