I havent gotten with anyone on any role play yet.

Reeny 10-25-2009 03:23 AM

Come on! I could easily pick a few choice words from the thread, from going to your character "not liking boys" to "starting to like" Allen, and then going as far as requesting to be in private with him? All in character, of course.

Look, just pointing out the facts here. I mean, it's fine if your character wants to hook up with another, just don't say it's not happening, when it IS.

*feeling feisty*

Talitha001 10-25-2009 03:26 AM

lmfao private as in she didnt want to dance she wanted to talk

likes him as in they can relate she has no romantic feelings for anyone.

she dosent like boys only cuz her parents are pushing her.

Reeny 10-25-2009 03:33 AM

Well, I will accept that that is what you're telling me, but honestly, it doesn't appear that way. There are ways to show a "friendly" interest, and then a "romantic" interest.

From what I've seen (taking into account the setting and time period), it LOOKS romantic. *shrug* And, like I told Pietro and unofficial, "I may have been born at night, but it wasn't last night!"

*laughs at self* I'm so silly!

*tired*

Talitha001 10-25-2009 03:37 AM

omg me to im wore out. Ima probably go to bed in a bit. I made it seem semi romantic so that everyone knows theres a chance. But for now its friendly romantic

Reeny 10-25-2009 03:41 AM

Well, at least she now admits it partially ... *chuckles*

Talitha001 10-25-2009 03:44 AM

omg that was so a typo
grr stupid meds

she only interested in him as a friend but later it could turn romantic there

Umi-No-Tenshi 10-25-2009 04:11 PM

im like totally lost. I read through all the posts and still dont get it. Its bad role playing in my opinion no offence.

good save though umi XD

Umi-No-Tenshi 10-25-2009 07:39 PM

Talitha, I don't know if you're aware of it since you have done it a few times so far, but you keep on using 'there' instead of 'their.'

'There' is a word used for location such as: The book was over there.

'Their' is used for people or in posession of something: She was their daughter.

'They're' is a shortend form of 'they are': They're happy.

Talitha001 10-25-2009 07:41 PM

I aplogize lol I was never good with alll the different theres. Ill try to use them in proper context now sorry bout that.........stupid theres.

Umi-No-Tenshi 10-25-2009 07:45 PM

It's quite alright. I just wanted to bring it to your attention. ^_^

Reeny 10-25-2009 07:54 PM

Love, love, love it, Umi!

The way you wrote the scene about the how it was all a play, was sheer genius, really! *wink*

I honestly don't think I could have written it out better myself.

This goes to show everyone not only what bad rp is ... because, frankly, while I will admit, I did send Pietro and iUnoffficial a PM telling them to, at the very least take this to a one on one, I did NOT say that they were playing badly (even if I did think it, hehehe....).

BUT, it also goes to show what really good RP is -- taking a horrible, unsuspecting situation, and turning it around to fit perfectly into the story.

Of course, now I wonder what wondrous things the Tremaines have in store for the rest of the masquerade .... Hah!


However,
that does bring me to mention something that this is a classic example of: This is just a roleplay. The things that our characters do and say are, hopefully, in the context of the roleplay.

I will always have my characters act how I think they would act or react, based on what's going on. There may be times when my character gets angry, sad, annoyed, happy, etc. Does that mean that I, the player, am feeling that way? Not necessarily.

Clearly, Harper and Selene's "RP" extended beyond the characters. Someone took it too personally. (And I saw the edit from Pietro. He first was mad at Selene and then killed himself, and not only until a little later, did he mention the PMs he received.) Clearly, if you cannot separate the two, and if you choose to do something like he did, IN the thread, that's immature.

I may or may not like someone here, but that has NO bearing on how my character reacts to you. It's just a game people. Have fun with it! ^_-

Oh, you have absolutely no idea as to what I have planned.

Muahahahaha*cough*hahaha

Talitha001 10-25-2009 08:30 PM

lol It was a great save. Thats how you can tell a good role player from an amature one. If you can save a role play from a mistake someone else made then your a great role player. If you can keep your real life feelings from effecting your role play it makes you a great role player otherwise you just need to learn. Practise makes perfect as everyone knows.

Confection 10-25-2009 08:44 PM

I'm sorry again for not being on...again. I'm posting as much as I absolutely can at the moment. I'm busy on weekends and being sick hasn't helped that. I'll try my best to be on more often so that Allen has a little more playtime. : )

And Reeny, you mentioned something about some of the characters having already hooked up. I hope you do not mean my dear Allen and his friend Alana. ;'D
I was going to make this a little more clear as the roleplay progressed (And I do believe I mentioned this in one of my first posts.), but now is a good time to reiterate that (HINT) Allen is not interested in girls.

I thought I would clarify this sooner so that people wouldn't get confused later. Although confusion is fun sometime. XD
He did dance with Alana, but it was only to be polite. After all, it would have looked a little fishy if he refused to dance with anyone. He knows what he has to do as a male in Victorian England, even if his actions are a little unpolished most of the time.

iUnofficial 10-25-2009 08:47 PM

._. I believe I tried making it clear that I quit this RP
Please dont ask about it from my friend Shadow.
Or you'll get me really Irritated..
And Reeny :sarcasm: Trust me
I know its me you probably dont like
So Im out of your hair
[bows]

told you it was just freinds reeny lol

she tried to convince me it would turn romantic. I dont see anything wrong with being friends.

Reeny 10-25-2009 09:11 PM

Y'all can tell me all you want here in the OOC thread, but what can Zariya but assume, seeing the chumminess!

There's a lovely thing in writing called "show, don't tell" which I find is something people should really try to adhere to. It does a WORLD of wonders about not confusing characters, people and intentions.

I'm just saying, peeps! Geez!

iUnofficial 10-25-2009 09:18 PM

In what you assume and partake
is your better at writting than everyone else
correct Reeny? You must be perfect,
and so does everyone else?

Umi-No-Tenshi 10-25-2009 09:23 PM

Well, I still haven't figured out who my dear Michael and Margaret are attracted to yet.

Michael/Zariya?
Margaret/Nathaniel?
Michael/Allen?!?
Margaret/Alana?!?

HAHAHAHAHA. I'm sorry Talitha, but Margaret/Alana would have me ROTFLing all day long. :rofl:

Edit: Hey, hey. Let's calm down from the accusations a little bit. iUnofficial, I'm sorry, you quit the RP so you have no place pointing fingers in the OOC thread.

Talitha001 10-25-2009 09:26 PM

o.O Alanas not gay that she knows of lmfao

Her parents want herwith micheal. We shall have to wait and see if they connect. I love role plays.

I didn't mean to say that Zariya should have known my character's preferences. I was just hoping that other RPers were not assuming that Allen and Alana had hooked up already, was all.

I didn't mean to be rude, and I apologize.
