Hello there, I'm Rivaan, can call me Riv if you'd wish. Usually I make my 1x1 ICs a lot more detailed when it's about a very specific RP I want to do that I've done a lot of brainstorming on. Decided to change my way of doing things for the moment. Here I will be tossing my less developed, but still desired RP ideas. Now I'm looking for a RP partner or two as I found some spare time on my hands. Before we proceed some rules to be tossed into the mix!
-Must be 18+, I'm an adult and prefer to RP with adults. Expect gore, hard language, cursing and all that. -Smut will NOT be the focus of this RP and I will even run it with fade to black if I have to, so we can keep the pace going. -If I see something I do not like I will call you on it. -I expect at least 2 paragraphs for a post. Could be more could be sometimes less, but most of the time 2 is the minimum. No one liners here. -I would prefer it to NOT be a one post per week kind of RP. At least every other day if it's possible. Sometimes I'm busy, sometimes you will be busy, it happens, but 2-3 post a week should be the norm. Sometimes with many posting back to back during lucky days of course. -If you do not like something within the RP, talk to me, we shall see if we can figure something out. -If you need to leave the RP or lose interest, just say it. I will not hold it against you. Let's separate on friendly terms, don't just drop off the face of the Earth. -I will try to keep on time for posting, but if I haven't replied within 2-3 days after your post feel free to poke me. I will be doing the same. Sometimes RP get burried within other things to do, it's understandable. -Do not post in this Thread, PM me. -Do not ask me if I'm interested in other RPs ideas here. -I'm searching for one or maybe 2 people to do this RP with, so if you come late and I already have people, I will tell you and change the name of the IC to -name-[closed]. Please be understanding, I'm just one person. -I mostly play Female characters, but do can play Male as well. Still I prefer to play Female characters better. I can do FxF or FxM. -Also no RPing from first person, I find it slightly weird and would prefer for my partner to not use it either.
Cravings:
Ideally I'd love to do a semi canon Harry Potter AU RP. What would I mean by that? Set in the timeframe of original story, but at certain point onwards it will diverge and with some notable differences in the existing characters for example maybe we can have an evil Dumbledore who's manipulating and pulling strings all around. Like how had he NOT noticed the abuse Harry was suffering at home? It was all part of the plan! Just a possibility. I personally won't be playing a existing character, part of the whole going off the rails of the story with new elements showing up, but I won't be stopping my partner in this going for a canon character like Harry, an AU Harry that might not even be a boy or even a complete OC that's also at Hogwarts at the time. As for starting point, I'd reckon year 5 is a good place to start. Maybe a month or so before the start of term depending on how we decided to proceed with the story.
Anyways in this RP, I'm looking a lot to setting and twisting the original story some. Stuff like who's secretly evil, who's having dastardly plans for the saviors or the like. If you've read Harry Potter fanfics, it's likely you've seen at least one of them bashing Dumbledore,Ron and others.
A relatively simple idea about a mass effect story that's about a person from another cycle of harvest waking up in the next one like Javik. This can follow some of the events of the game or could be entirely different from it depending on how the story is arranged. It could also be as somebody waking up in the timeline of the ME games as the sole survivor of an ancient race that tries to stop the Reapers once more or it could be about a human waking up in the next cycle after Commander Shepard's efforts failed and the galaxy was culled. We can play around with this to decide which and who takes which role.
I really want to do something related to Star Wars. More so focused in the Empere part of the timeline, but something in the Clone Wars could work too. Personally I'm going to discount anything that happens in the new trilogy... Yeah not happy with that one. I'm not a SW deep lore expert. I've read a few of the Legacy books back in the day. Watched ep 1 to 6, almost all of the Clone Wars and played some of the games. I had a lot of fun with all those and I hope to capture some of it here too. What I'm personally am most looking for is a bit more freestyled take. With weird Lightsaber types, possibly obscure stuff showing up... maybe even sprinkle some stuff from the Old Republic era via force schenanigans? Details could be hammered out later.
Ideas:
A semi historical RP idea heavily inspired by movies like Legend of Zorro, Batman and books like Count Monte Cristo. Specific time setting for the RP is open to decision really though it will be semi accurate to real world at best. Basic idea of it boils down to a nobleman or noblewoman from one nation or city state travels under pretense to another because they are aware of a possible conspiracy. Could be a conspiracy to overthrow the king/queen, to start a war or anything damaging enough really. The noble would have a secret identity - a masked vigilante of sorts with only their closest servants being aware. The other player could be the local city lord, lady, noble or just a civilian who get's dragged into it. Again things like setting for both era of the RP and location be it ancient Greece or renaissance France or Italy is up to us.
Inspired by a webnovel of that name, this RP will be about a pair of humans who died and ended up in valhalla one way or another. In the novels it was a human from our world, an E-Sports player who died in 'battle' and for some reason a Valkyrie was dispatched to pick him up. In this case it could be something similar with people from modern day earth ending up in Valhalla that's usually tied to it's own version of Midgard instead. Or it could be that our characters would be from the olden world entirely and as proper warriors end up in valhalla to fight Ragnarok! Or maybe a mix of a proper warrior and a person from our world! Up for discussion and personal prefference really. Main point will be, monster fighting gallore with all manner of mythological creatures and fantasy adventures all the way!
Another one I don't have a complete concrete idea honestly, but just like the possibilities. A city filled with all manner of weird larger than life heroes and villains( and batman punching people obvs). A setting like that gives great amount of possibilities and I'd love to explore things from the point of view of somebody who's just dragged into those events caused by the super villains. Maybe we play minor villians or heroes. Maybe even just regular civilians caught up into the madness or any mixture of those three. Might even consider going for cannon x OC mashup if somebody really wants to try playing a cannon character through it won't be me. Still I do love me the idea of the madness that could go down.
The idea for this RP is to play as members/employees of a secret borderline evil organization. One that deals in all manners of research that at the end do provide tangible benefit to humanity, but at the price of questionable and sometimes downright inhuman experiments. Whenever something goes wrong, a 'Cleaner' crew is send, consisting of armed agents to capture, terminate and generally fix the problem.
My main idea is for us to play as low to mid level agents. Though possible options are also mixes of agents, handlers, researcher, one of the experiments and so on.
A relatively simple RP idea honestly. Suddenly for some unexplained reason one day you jus wake up at a new world with the powers and abilities from a game or show you really liked. Could be played a few different ways but for example maybe you are now royalty or nobility in a world where the strong survive and the weak can only submit. Powers would grow with time as you also learn new ones and so on, gradually catching up to the world' strongests. And hey maybe creating an empire isn't too bad, right?
So yeah, it's an Isekai RP where you get reincarnated/reborn/(other re words here) as somebody of importance. Much influence on this were quite a few fantasy webnovels and mainly things like Hail the King. I'm not looking to play the royal character, I'm personally looking to play the right hand of one. The trusty knight and protector. Powerwise, we'd start on the lower end of things, but grow along and with the world having it's own power system that our Game worlds based powers combine into. We can discuss this more in PMs though.
As a great fan of Final Fantasy 8, it's one of if not my most favorite final fantasy game. I've always wanted to do a RP set in that universe. My main idea here would be a sort of AU of the main story or maybe a story set up around a different time like prior to the game's events. As such I suppose some knowledge of the game would be required, though I wouldn't push it too much. As the Sorceress and the Sorceress's Knight are a main motive of the game, I'd ideally love to do something with it. A young Sorceress who had gained her powers not too long ago and her chosen champion to keep her safe as forces across the world are stirring to exploit them for their own gain. Could go with the same timeline as the game itself, but in that case I would like it that for the most part the events of the game would be happening somewhat away from the characters with few actual cross overs with the game's main protagonists and our characters. So while Squall and company and off fighting Edea, we would be instead off fighting somewhere else and not being present at the game's events, though we could still use Ultimecia and maybe Adel and so on as villains.
Alright, usually I'd go on a somewhat long description of the possible setting with details and other information that could be useful. No such thing this time. I want to do a RP that at least at the start our characters would be gladiators, maybe they escape, maybe they get freed or even something else who knows. The setting should be vaguely Roman Empire. I'm NOT an expert on the topic of the Roman Empire, nor I expect my partners to be. We can tweak it somewhat, just make some stuff as we go along and all other manner of conveniences. However expect, emperors, legions, crowds of folk shouting for blood and circuses, all the good stuff. I suppose this could also be made to work as a somewhat fantasy setting, up to debate, but just mentioning it as an option. I don't have concrete plot set up for this, at first it'd be just day to day life in the arena and the Ludus( the gladiatorial school).
(general modern day magic setting or fandoms like Harry potter or Fata/Stay Night) My idea is for the story to follow as shown in the name, the darker aspects of the world of magic. The backstabbing between the many magical families, the assassinations and the attempts to steal the research of the others. Crazed magi with the desire to destroy, weird experiments, ancient and otherworldly evils and all that comes with those.
Now For the possible plot I had in mind in just a few words. My character would be a eccentric who strays away from the politics of the magical societies, but gets dragged back into it by force when people discover that she could be useful research subject. Due specific irregularities. Here your character could be pretty much anything and those few details aside we could spin it in many directions.
Closed:
The idea behind this story is basically a post apocalyptical world that could be taking place in both fantasy or near sci-fi setting. Details could vary and I've got ideas for both a fantasy and a more scifi-ish setup, but the main idea is that the sun has dimmed out from the sky for a reason or another. To survive, people moved underground into vast subterrainian networks of caverns and tunels. Creating fortified settlements whereever they could sustain life, farming mushrooms, any plantlife that adapted and herding mutated animals. The surface being encased in perpetual darkness and endless blizzards.
From the basics onwards, the RP could vary greatly depending on how we proceed with it. Just a few two scenarios: -Characters got exiled into the seemingly endless caverns and tunnels outside the settlements to find their deaths for crimes they didn't(or maybe did) commit. Explore the forgotten tunnels and find locations long since lost to time outside the relatively safe confines of civilization as they know it. -Whatever's keeping the settlement safe and surviving might be suffering a breakdown or maybe a danger is growing so strong soon to be lethal. Maybe it's the old fallout classic of water purifying chips or maybe the nuclear reactor that's been keeping hte power is malfunctioning, but access has been lost for decades with it's entrance days away into the tunnels that haven't been used for years.
It is the near future of 2250. Humanity has colonized the Solar System, but we as people never really changed. Once new borders in space were established, the old lust for power, control and greed resurfaced again. With a new conflict brewing an all out war was just a matter of time. The two sides of the conflict being as simple as Earth vs Colonies. A bloody conflict to be raged across Sol.
Another rather open ended idea for a RP. My main idea is for my character to be a pilot for the colonies that was captured. RP can start during the time she's captured with the other character being their jailor, somebody to attempt to recruit them or a rescue mission. Up to discussion here!
Amelia was still breathing somewhat heavily as she noted some people arriving. It was one of the guys with the other groups. She thought for a moment and recalled a name.β Manny, thatβs what they called him, right?β She thought as he asked her if she was alright.β ...β Amelia really wasnβt sure if she should talk about it. However it wasnβt really a bad thing to know, least he brings a stupid beast of death one day without knowing." Justβ¦ had a bad dayβ¦ There was this dogβ¦. The β¦ scary one.β She replied to him as she spotted movement from the rough direction of the church. Amelia didn't plan to elaborate any further right now, didn't think it was needed to. There wasn't much to understand anyways, big scary dog spooked her.
Having looked in that direction only to spot Padre, Riley and Tati, she felt relieved.β Hello.β She greeted padre and also nodded at Tati who appeared to hold her cold demeanor. At this point she had decided to not attempt to connect by persistence with the woman. A greeting would do, so with that she moved over to Riley. They had agreed to visit the graves to pay their respects to James for certain.
She smiled as she hugged Riley, reassured by having her around herself. She needed this, especially after the encounter with the beast of hell. She was really annoyed about that, she had no idea why they brought that scary beast thereβ¦ Couldnβt they have kept it somewhere in a cage and preferably tossed the key away? She just quietly complained to Riley about having met the stupid dog for a bit before more or less everybody had gathered.
Amelia returned a smile to Ash. Then there was the bus that arrived with people and suspicious bags. In her little mind she already started to ponder possible theories about what was in the bags. What they were talking about though, clearing yards and locking places down, made her think that the place they were heading to, might not actually be as safe as they weer making it out to be most of the time. If they were talking about the graveyard location where they were going to go now. She was without a weapon and didnβt like it one bit. So she took Rileyβs hand into hers, not wanting to let go, she was going to protect her no matter what. If she thought there was danger present, sheβd make sure Riley was inside the bus on the moment!
Lisa stretched her arms as she was walking around Medical to find Mary so she could report to her and get any tasks she might have yet to do for the day. She was reasonably certain there was still some cleaning to be done, but better confirm it all with SB first. On that note, she briefly pondered the benefit of having Manny with her now that he wasnβt around anymore. It certainly made time pass a lot faster and more enjoyable with his presence. Of course the time saved on having two people do the job was great as well. She did ponder however how long the older man would stick around on this specific job posting however.
After running a mental check on the most likely places Mary to be at, Lisa eventually did find her at the back of the reception area. Not that there were many places around medical that the woman could be at, it was a limited space inside a building after all, however she thought it lucky that SB hadnβt left to do a chore of something off site. On the way there she spotted a very brief glimpse of people leaving, not the most familiar profiles. She was sure the woman was the one she had met yesterday at the beach, with the artificial arm. Wondered what they were doing in Medical.
Turning her attention away from the already vanished people, she focused on her own task at hand which was SB and the others around the place. Medic was nearby doing his thing, she waved him a greeting. Doc also appeared handing stuff over to Mary. She waved him a greeting as well as she walked up to Mary.β Hey, so Iβm done with the boat and the cleaning of the main labβ¦ There anything else that I can help with or need prioritize first? Or am I to just resume my normal tasks instead?β Lisa asked of Mary.
βOhhhhhh.β Amelia made a sound of realization as Nikki started to explain the mouseβs origins. It was a dark and terrifying story of a little mouse who just happened to appear and wasnβt getting caught in the traps! How ghastly! Well she nodded as she heard why it was named that way.β Hmm.. ohhβ¦ THAT one. I recall now. Sorry it's just that I don't recall movie trivia as fast as before.β She nodded even more vigorously as she recalled the movie. Honestly she would never had thought of it if the girl hadnβt mentioned where the name had come from. After having been away from watching any form of movie for so long, she mostly had phased many of the memories of them away to some degree.
βMmm, thatβd be interesting, I want to see those traps as well.β She was honestly curious and looking forward to the future when she gets to see such a trap in action. Of course after Nikkiβs earlier explanation on the traps type, she recalled those weirdly elaborate contraptions on tv now and then, but she honestly wanted to see such a thing on grander scale to kill walkers.β Okey, tomorrow we will see how we can trap this thing. Maybe with two of us, one can guide it towards the other who will catch it.β She suggested as they were returning to the good old working thing. How weird to be working once more, but it was a nice weird. A very calming one.
Soon enough as it was about time to prepare for leaving the doorbell rang. Amelia followed Nikki with her eyes as the girl went to the front to check what was going on and she herself instead hurried to get into the dress. It was about time for her to head off to the meeting point so she used the opportunity while she was alone in the room. Luckily getting into the dress didnβt take quite much time, so she quickly found herself ready to leave and headed to the front as well.
There were 2 things of note she spotted as she entered the front of Supply. First were Nikki and DoLittle. The second was the dogβ¦ THE GOD DAMNED BIG DOG!β ...!β Ameliaβs heart rate sped up with the potential to go off the charts as she watched the hell beast of horror and destruction that was brought to Supply! They had told her there wouldnβt be dogs near her damn it! Still holding her previous clothing that was now folded into her embrace, she pushed herself against the wall and walked basically glued to it, obviously keeping as far away in her shaken state from the dog.β Nikkiβ¦ Iβmβ¦ goingβ¦ now...β She mumbled out, not even attempting to hide her distress and general disposition towards dogs until she made it to the door, not taking her eyes off the dog, before she finally bailed outside and RAN, not minding she was in a dress now. She ran like her life depended on it, not minding anything on the way there until she made it to the Meeting up point. She was still clutching her regular clothing tightly in embrace, having forgotten to drop it off or put in a bag or anything, affected by the sight of the doggo from hell and her rapid escape from Supply. She was panting, trying to catch her breath, but at least she escaped hte dog... probably. She needed her bat stat for future protection!
βOkey, letβs get going.β She stated, after all the things were put into the buckets and they were ready to leave. She started to walk to leave the boat however fate had another idea for her still. As she was just thinking that itβd be nice to maybe be done with the whole job on time today, she slipped. As if on a metaphorical banana peel on the wet boat, she had a very brief moment to react as she found her footing slipping. Time seemed to slow for a moment, as her brain went to weird places, however the most important of all, her reflexes took point and she managed to catch herself and secure her footing and some more support by grabbing the nearest secure object.
β...β She didnβt speak for a moment, before she chuckled.β Well, I lucked out today. Good for me. That was close.β She smiled, having avoided a possible disaster. Who knew if she had slipped how it could have ended, luckily she didnβt this time around. Making sure to be careful as she walked off the boat now, as to not slip again and not slip she did indeed. Once on solid ground, she gave a silent prayer of thanks to no one in specific and headed back to Medical.
With a smile on her face and a song in her heart from having a good thing happen, the already short journey to Medical felt even shorter. Getting back into the building, going through the procedures and then returning to the basement was basically a second nature to her by this point.β So pretty sure you should be leaving any time now.β She reminded Manny as she was putting away all the things.
When the tools and so on were all put away, she smiled and headed to go find Mary. She hurried on to find the woman, she needed to see if there were other random task appearing in need of doing or she should focus on cleaning the rest of the lesser places in the basement that were left since they didnβt finish the entire basement earlier, just the main lab room because of all the plaster. Still it was good they had managed to do that in time before leaving for the Water Repair.
Location: Corbis Wood, New Hampshire Hit Points:10 - Sanity Points:80 - Luck:40 Mental State: Normal Skill: N/a
Eleanora walked down the roads of Corbis Wood with a mostly negative to at best neutral scowl, heading towards the Coach Station. Thisβ¦ gathering had all the markings of an elaborate hoax, but with the absence of better leads, it was going to have to do. Itβs been a long while since she had anything good to go by, it seemed that the supernatural was a hard thing to track, unless you moved in itβs circles. She knew weird stuff were going on all around, but even as a detective, unless she was hired for such a job, by the time it reached her ears, it would already be all over and little to no traces would be left. Information wasnβt as fast traveling as sheβd like it to be.
Walking ever onwards the dusty road, she spotted the station in the not so far distance.β This better pay out...β She grumbled under her breath, speed increasing in tune with the scowl on her face, clearly showing she wasnβt in the best of moods right now. On this job, she hadnβt touched alcohol for a good some time now, ever since she left home to come to Corbis Wood. She kept focused, but it didnβt mean she wasnβt being affected by irritation, especially since this blasted place was so quiet and calm in general. She hated quiet placesβ¦ in these places were the most dangerous of thing hiding. She ran a finger through her hair, twirling a raven lock as she walked the last bit of the road to the station.
The station was already rather filled with people she supposed, at least when considered the location and the people who lived around these parts. She scanned the people around and quickly spotted what she suspected were the people organizing this event. Once more she had to remind herself that if it didnβt pan out with clues, sheβd just consider it a vacation from her jobβ¦ A getaway from the city. Still clearly irritated to some degree, she pulled a cigarette, brought it to her lips and after it was secured there, she pulled her lighter and it up. She inhaled deeply with half closed eyes, her tense and irritated features calming just a tad as she turned to the stocky man and the younger one.
Walking with confident gait and directly to the pair of men, she stopped a few steps distance from them, reaching to her cigarette, holding it gently between her middle and index fingers she inhaled one last time, before pulling it away from her lips. She exhaled the smoke to the side, not to do so in their faces.β You Paul LeMond and Herb Whitefield?β Eleanora asked them, bringing the cigarette to her lips again for a quick pull from it.β Name's Eleanora Estelle, pleasure meeting you.β She added with her slight french accent, but her voice despite that didnβt carry as much pleasantries as what was being said. She was clearly not in a great mood, but she wasnβt outright hostile at the very least.

Physical description Height: 1.79m Weight: 73kg Build: Athletic Eyes: Grey Hair: Black Skin Tone: Fair Tattoos/Scars/Piercings: Big claw like scars on the right shoulder, the left side of her torso and on her back. Personal Style:
Sexuality: Straight Relationship Status: Single/Widowed Personality: There are two sides of Eleonora that exist in constant struggles. Mostly caused by her past and mental state. The first is her more calm and collected one. She's actually pretty alright person, she can smile, joke and be friendly, however that's not mostly teh case anymore. Driven by the past and the traumatic events she underwent, losing her family and being on the step of death herself, she's unable to accept it all and simply move on. She's haunted by the experience, dreams of it, hates herself and everyone else for it. She drowns most of her worries in cheap alcohol. Constantly stressed and irriated from it all, she's prone to solving conflicts with violence.
When not actually overwhelmed by her unstable emotions and being a prickly ball of fuck you to everyone around, she's actually again quite alright. Especially when she's working, she's patient, careful and tends to appear a lot friendlier than when she's wasting her time drinking away. On the job she's rarely drinking hard enough to get drunk, mostly keeping herself focused with the grand goal in her life. Which is finding what and who killed her family and tearing them to pieaces. She's so driven that it overpowers her constant desire for self destruction in alcohol and smoking, when she believes she's on the tracks of what she needs. At the rare cases when she's not drunk, not depressed to the point of self loathing and not on the job, she actually preferres to spend her time listening to music and reading a good novel.

What brings you to the LeMond's seanse: Truth... and revenge. I will hunt down any trace of the supernatural, however most are bogus. Hopefully this so called and famed spiritualist is more than the regular everyday con artist. Well I'm looking forward to it. Truth or fake, worst case scenario I will just treat is as a vacation. Life before current day: She was born in France, but her family moved to the states pretty early on in her life. She barely recalls much of her mother's language honestly. She grew up speaking english and aside an occasional weird accent in some words that she picked up growing up around her mother who was speaking with French accent, she speaks it perfectly well.
Growing up as a high middle class child, all was pretty regular. She was a pretty child, got along with her friends. Went to school, met a pretty boy, eventually they became a couple. Married and had a child. They had gotten a place of their own and were living a relative dream life. They had enough and didn't feel the need for more. Well however fate had other plans.
One night something happened when they were returning home. It was stormy, there was a heavy downpour and lightning. It was well in the night and they were hurrying to get home. Something attacked them. She never quite saw what it was, just a vague shadow in the stormy night, but she suffered a lot of claw like wounds and her son and husband were dead with many similar wounds.

Physical description Height: 1.79m Weight: 73kg Build: Athletic Eyes: Grey Hair: Black Skin Tone: Fair Tattoos/Scars/Piercings: Big claw like scars on the right shoulder, the left side of her torso and on her back. Personal Style:
Sexuality: Straight Relationship Status: Single/Widowed Personality: There are two sides of Eleonora that exist in constant struggles. Mostly caused by her past and mental state. The first is her more calm and collected one. She's actually pretty alright person, she can smile, joke and be friendly, however that's not mostly teh case anymore. Driven by the past and the traumatic events she underwent, losing her family and being on the step of death herself, she's unable to accept it all and simply move on. She's haunted by the experience, dreams of it, hates herself and everyone else for it. She drowns most of her worries in cheap alcohol. Constantly stressed and irriated from it all, she's prone to solving conflicts with violence.
When not actually overwhelmed by her unstable emotions and being a prickly ball of fuck you to everyone around, she's actually again quite alright. Especially when she's working, she's patient, careful and tends to appear a lot friendlier than when she's wasting her time drinking away. On the job she's rarely drinking hard enough to get drunk, mostly keeping herself focused with the grand goal in her life. Which is finding what and who killed her family and tearing them to pieaces. She's so driven that it overpowers her constant desire for self destruction in alcohol and smoking, when she believes she's on the tracks of what she needs. At the rare cases when she's not drunk, not depressed to the point of self loathing and not on the job, she actually preferres to spend her time listening to music and reading a good novel.

History
What brings you to the LeMond's seanse: Truth... and revenge. I will hunt down any trace of the supernatural, however most are bogus. Hopefully this so called and famed spiritualist is more than the regular everyday con artist. Well I'm looking forward to it. Truth or fake, worst case scenario I will just treat is as a vacation. Life before current day: She was born in France, but her family moved to the states pretty early on in her life. She barely recalls much of her mother's language honestly. She grew up speaking english and aside an occasional weird accent in some words that she picked up growing up around her mother who was speaking with French accent, she speaks it perfectly well.
Growing up as a high middle class child, all was pretty regular. She was a pretty child, got along with her friends. Went to school, met a pretty boy, eventually they became a couple. Married and had a child. They had gotten a place of their own and were living a relative dream life. They had enough and didn't feel the need for more. Well however fate had other plans.
One night something happened when they were returning home. It was stormy, there was a heavy downpour and lightning. It was well in the night and they were hurrying to get home. Something attacked them. She never quite saw what it was, just a vague shadow in the stormy night, but she suffered a lot of claw like wounds and her son and husband were dead with many similar wounds. In fact she only survived because a large group of people had left a nearby pub and likely spooked the attacker/s. She was told it was a pack of feral dogs more likely than not. She never believed it. She turned down to investigating it herself and in the process ended up working as a PI to make meets end. Your belief in/encounters with the supernatural: It's all real... they don't believe me, call me crazy, but I know what I saw. Even though it was hazy, even though it was impossible, the scars and the dead do not lie. Ideology/Belief: It's all true! It must be, ghosts, gods, monsters, space men and there exist even good politicians... Now give me my money, I've got bills to pay and job to do. Significant people: None still walking Meaningful location: Her home that serves double duty as her detective office. Many important memories are held there for her. Good, bad, ugly, but all important. Treasured possessions: A small photo of her family.
Amelia was smiling as Nikki was talking then when she started doing a parody impression of a rich man, Amelia more or less lost it and burst into a loud laugh for a moment. Itβs been a while since she had been so caught off guard by a joke. With the topic of dead friends, Amelia had only nodded. She didnβt speak much more on the subject, having realized that her last interaction with the man was also saying goodbye. It was not a nice realization to have, but time did heal wounds. Itβs been a long time since then and the wounds of separation were long since dulled, albeit they still caused some pain. Sadly the world was not fair and it never waited for anyone. In a way to a degree she had accepted it. For now all she cared about was Riley and their new live here.
She then watched rather confused after the mouse appeared and the other young woman tried to capture it, calling it by name.β Itβs not a wild mouse?β She asked with some curiosity as she saw it scurry off her pants and down under the furniture in itβs escape attempt from Nikki, and escape it did!β Itβs your pet? β Amelia asked, returning to doing her job, now that the little thing was gone.β You know, I can help you in trying to catch it, from now onβ¦ though it might be tomorrow, since Iβm not quite sure how long I have left here for the moment before I need to leave.β She smiled and looked around the floor. If they wanted to catch it alive, it meant no traps, so she supposed theyβd have to bait it out somehow. It would actually be a nice activity and she did want to help the girl.
βWell first will have to finish the rest of the tasks however, otherwise we might get ranted on...β She recalled SB from earlier and the fact that Auntie could probably also be pretty scary if they make her mad. Old ladies were rather scary when angry, something about that innate judgment glare they all somehow had.
βPretty sure what the new world has to offer is a variation of what the old one had, maybe with a few less bastards running about.β She smiled as she replied to him.β Which I will be quick to state that small fact on itself is enough of a cause for celebration in many a ways indeed. Granted there are still some of those running about, but ehh, nothing is perfect.β She chuckled and looked at Manny.β Everybody has something to offer and Iβm sure your presence will bring a lot of benefits to the camp, youβve got experience in many things by the sound of it and thatβs always a plus. Besides dentalβs important!β
βDunno, for all we know whatever is causing them to well exist might be keeping them operational someway we cannot discover. So yeah, itβs been years now and they still move, still, they are somewhat decayed, so it might just be a very delayed process. Besides time and weather wear down stone and metal, flesh and bone are way weaker than stone and metal, so given enough time, they would be affected good more likely than not. So the possibility still exist!β She saud in some characteristic for her optimism.
βMmm, psychology is not my specialty. You can talk more about it at the church.β She chuckled and tossed Manny a look.β But I agree with you. Besides if people odnβt like civilization that much, they are always free to venture out and find somewhere where others wonβt bother them.β She stated flatly with some seriousness as she was finishing up with the cleaning now as well.β Also, yes, you arenβt wrong. We are done now.β She confirmed as she took a final look around just going through the mental check list she had.β Okey time to gather up.β She explained and started gathering up the cleaning tools and then the things they had to toss away into their respective carts.β Work well done, with two people it indeed takes a lot less time to complete. Thanks.β She patted Manny on the shoulder.β Seems I might just have enough time to finish with the labs on time or with minimal delay afterwards.β
βThat is well understandableβ¦ like all the aunties and old ladies even back before the wholeβ¦ world went to hell.β Amelia replied to Nikki with a nod and a smile. It was usually the case no, older people loved to talk about the events happening to others around them. Guess it was their entertainment and she couldnβt blame them for it, nor she had any intention to. If they wanted to talk about her and Riley they were all welcome, as long as nothing bad was being said at the very least.
Hearing what was to happen with the clothing and how Nikki proposed to deal with it, Amelia nodded in agreement now that she had the proposal.β Yeah that will do. Thank you.β She replied and scurried off behind the curtains of the dressing room to change clothing once more. It was a pleasant weird feeling to be back in a dress after all that time. She finished putting on her more comfortable for work clothing, folded the dress and walked out of the dressing room joining Nikki so they can get back to work.
It was a lot of menial work, but Amelia actually found it rather zen in a way. It was relaxing and calming to the mind, she didnβt mind the fact it wasnβt very energetic and activity demanding job. It made her calm to have something simple and repetitive to do and sorting out items and writing lists was quite much so. Suddenly she looked up from the things they were sorting and rearranging and looked at the other girl. She didnβt reply for a moment, making a reminiscing expression.β James. We got along well back in Newnan, canβt quite say the same for the rest, but I owe him at least that much.β She explained when something small and furry scurried off from among the furniture and the different things arranged about the hall.
Before Amelia realized It was happening, the thing had already climbed up her leg and only then did she feel and realize it! She nearly jumped as she looked down and sawβ¦ a pair of beady eyes of a mouse! She froze in place, staring at the little critter. She wasnβt deadly afraid of mice, and being startled was not a new thing in the world. She relaxed a bit, it was just a small mouse, not even a big rat anyways. Mouses were cuter than rats...β MMβ¦ Nikki, can youβ¦ get it off my leg?β She asked, not moving much. She was afraid that if she moves it might start climbing again. She wasnβt really afraid of it, at least not to freak out. Itg wasn't a dog after all, it was a small mouse with cute beady eyes. She still didnβt want to be used as a climbing playground for a random mouse though.
Work was going great. In fact Lisa found herself thinking it was going better than expected, maybe better than she hoped to. Many was learning quickly the specifics of the trade, likely from past experience, but I was nice to have someone else to help her out with it so the task was going smoother and faster. Whatβs more just to make things even better overall, the smell was going away rather fast as well! Good, meant they were doing a great work indeed.β We keep going like this and weβd be more or less done by the time you need to leave.β She smiled at the man. That was especially great news, because wellβ¦ Lisa still had work to do back at Medical. The cleaning there had to be done as well and it wouldnβt wait till tomorrow. As soon as they were done here, she was more or less running back to Mediacal to finish the job there as well. Hell she had no idea why SB agreed to send here here before they were done with the basement in the hospital. Maybe they were going to be doing something to the boat and needed it in good condition first.
With a grin she tossed a look at Manny.β Well maybe you will get the chance to see the world then. Follow your dreams, but I think you will like it here also.β She chuckled and shrugged her shoulders.β Most people like it here and for a good reason. Still youβve been out of quarantine barely half a day, so no worries. By the time a few weeks pass and youβve met many of the locals, you will feel a lot more comfortable here. By then you will also have had the chance to talk with many of those who have been part of this place way longer than myself.β She added with friendly voice. He would certainly start to feel better and more fitting once he makes a few friends among the similar aged people in the camp, she was certain of it!
βYeah, well as I already said, they clearly arenβt decaying as normal corpses would. Without very indepth studies on it, anything we say here is mere speculations and guesses, but if they do indeed get worse with time and eventually it affects their mobility and danger and then the rules will be more loose. Until and if at all till then, the rulers are actually pretty secure and keep the place running in good operational state.β Lisa shrugged, thinking about the walkers sheβd seen so far. In all honestly, she had her doubts that they will ever completely go away baring some miracle like superpowers.β As for how it will be if walkers arenβt as dangerous anymoreβ¦ probably as itβd been before he zombies appeared. Ideally people will have learned that working together for a long time.β A bit of an optimist view on the topic, but she was a bit of an optimist anyways.
βOhβ¦β She made a sound of realization as Nikki explained the way the old ladies probably viewed her and Riley. Amelia was quiet for a moment then let out a rare chuckle.β I suppose we are the new show in town then. Not sure they will find us as interesting as a soap opera though.β She smiled and was a a rather good mood. It was true that she and Riley were going steady for a while now and she was so glad for it.β Mmmmβ¦ I guess I will be learning how to play cards today.β Amelia thought aloud. There were a lot of activities to spend your free time it seemed. It seemed there would be a good variety to choose from and it wonβt be getting stale for a while at least.
βI like the hat very much, no need for a wig, thank you!β Amelia quickly fired out a statement as she gripped the hat and put it on, holding it in place, clearly refusing to put on a wig in a bit of a comical manner. It was an attempt at a humor given the situation. She smiled at Nikki and quickly folded the clothing she wore until now.β Well I donβt like bright colors to begin with, so this gray dress serves me perfectly.β She explained that it was mostly because of personal preference.β And I suppose you are right there. Itβs just that out there on the roads, you cannot allow yourself to show any weakness so stuff that stands out or is in the way is usually a bad thing when you can expect walkers to sneak up on you at all times even when you rest.β She sighed and moved the hat about to set it better. It felt odd on her head right now since the hair was slowly growing, but she supposed once she gets some hair going, itβd look better.β So what do I do with my old clothes now? I suppose they should be brought to be cleaned.β
βMm, once more thank you for this.β She added with a smile also looking around the place and all the things set about it.β I suppose we should be returning to work now, donβt want you to get in trouble for spending all this time to help me. I need to work extra hard had to make up for this and the fact I will be leaving soon!β Amelia said with serious voice and conviction.β So now that we ran the papers before lunch, what do we have to do now? Check more listsβ¦ or?β
Lisa looked at Manny as they were working and he brought up the topic of other settlements. She rose an eyebrow and thought for a bit.β Not really.β Was her simple reply that came pretty fast.β Since Iβve come to this place, Iβve rarely went outside unless on duty. As for the other settlements, never had the opportunity to.β She shrugged as she cleaned the room in the boat. As the man mentioned a conflict she just shrugged.β Mmm not sure what exactly I can tell you about that. Honestly not sure on the details myself, you want the specifics you can try the General or Gunny. Or SB if sheβs in a good mood.β She chuckled.
With her piece said, she focused on the boat once more. The thing was rocking gently which wasnβt unusual and it wasnβt too bad, at least it wasnβt interfering with clean up. Whatβs more after the initial period of once more getting used to it, work was actually going smoothly. She felt that in fact they might get done here earlier than initial estimates! Lisa smiled, she liked it when work was going great.
βAnyhow, yeah I actually donβt know much about the conflict as I said. Not sure it matters that much right now though, itβs already settled.β Lisa stated and looked at Manny.β Why are you asking about that anyways? Curiosity?β She asked him with calm voice and pointed at at a spot by him.β Focus on that thing. Itβs requiring more scrubbing than the rest.β She added with a smile. Lisa was now curious why he was asking about that topic. Was he worried that a conflict might break out again?
Amelia was honestly taken a bit by surprise by how the things with Mary happened. Despite Nikkiβs faul and direct language, nothing happened. Whatβs more despite Maryβs even more threatening attitude she just walked away, finally allowing Amelia the chance to take a deep breath and nod at Nikki.β I assume this happens often?β She asked, her eyes wandering towards the door where Mary had left from.
βUhhβ¦? Ahhh, those things.β She was at first a bit confused about what the younger girl was describing for a moment there, before the image clicked in her head. Now that was a surprising hobby to have. The name for it slipped her mind also, it was some specific naming term used, sheβd recall it eventually when she wasnβt trying to think it up.β If it works, I think itβd be worth to see one.β Amelia said, imagining a balling ball going down some rails of a building triggered by a walker walking over something and the ball falling on itβs head.β I imagine they donβt just allow her to actually go outside freely and do those right? I imagine the hoops to jump through with a hobby like that are quite a few?β
Then there were also the other women in Supply who started to sign off for the end of their shifts. Amelia waved a good bye to them as well, feeling a bit surprised when they invited them to play cards later.β Maybe? Iβm not sure for today.β She admitted quietly. She truly wasnβt sure if she would have the chance to go to the card gathering and then she wasnβt sure sheβd be willing to go there on her own. Admittedly she found it easier to hang around people of ages with some distance to her own, but still. Sheβd say it to Riley also and see if the musician wants to go. Yeah.
As Nikki started to explain the womenβs curiosity. Amelia blushed up a bit and coughed one with a nod.β I suppose itβs not surprising.β She said quietly. Well it wasnβt a bad thing anyways. Though she wondered if the girl had to put it so bluntly. Well so far it seemed that she was frank to painful degree and didnβt pick her words and in a way, Amelia appreciated that honestly a lot.β I suppose they curiosity doesnβt hurt. Hmm?β She made a questioning sound at the end as Nikki seemed to have found whatever she was searching for.
β...β Amelia had a puzzled confused face for a moment as she picked the older styled hat with a veil form the younger womanβs hands. She looked at Nikki for a moment, then at the hat and only then tried it on. She had to admit by type it did go well with the gray summer dress, Amelia liked that. Looking through the veil around it was a bit weird at first.β Itβs a nice hat and I do like itβ¦ and it does go with the dress, but isnβt it a bitβ¦ much given the situation?β She asked Nikki with quiet voice.β Most others would be dressed with more regular clothingβ¦ this will stand out so much...β
βWell honestly Iβve been cleaning here a a number of times already, but full out boat ride into deep waters? On that front, not really.β She shrugged and tossed a look at the older man.β Well to be completely honest I wouldnβt mind one day going to the deep ocean on a boat.β She admitted, getting to the cleaning that needed to be done.β I think, I might like it there. It would be nice and calm most of the time.β
The medical room on board the boat was small, well cramped would be the proper word for it, but hey it was getting the job done.β This is likely to take a few hours and itβs not even a bad case of it.β She chuckled as she got to cleaning and sterilizing.β We are lucky they must have not encountered anything bad out there. Itβs going to be a longer more monotonous job today it seems.β She smiled and tossed a look at Manny.β Again itβs likely youβve got to leave before we finish here, but donβt worry. No need to hurry with the task.β She reassured him and focused on the job.
Well she hoped that a few of the tricks of the trade she had picked up along the years would help speed up the process, but as she was wiping up surfaces and tools, she realized it wasnβt going to cut it right now. Sheβd have to do it all properly down to the basics without any smart tricks up her sleeve. She didnβt mind much though. She had nowhere to hurry to today.
