XD So then how are we going to hook up our characters? Now don't quote me, but I think that Nathaniel is of the same persuasion as Allen...

Talitha001 10-25-2009 09:49 PM

Alana still dosent want a guy but her parents are making her so by the time this partys over she needs a fiance so that her parents wont pick for her

o the agony of an arranged marriage.

Confection 10-25-2009 10:00 PM

Nathaniel certainly seems to be playing the field Victorian style at the moment. It would definitely be surprising if he asked Allen to dance with him next. Although the theater that is my head is playing that scene over and over again with guilty interest.

In a twisted world, I would have Allen propose to Alana so that she wouldn't have to marry someone she didn't like. Then, they could pretend to be the perfect married couple.
Again, Confection's brain theater is packed with an audience tonight...

Confection 10-25-2009 10:15 PM

Oh dear, the Library that I'm using a computer at is closing. They always close early on Sundays. D:<

I shall be back again tomorrow! I have school but no work Monday. YAY!

Talitha001 10-25-2009 10:18 PM

see ya

Haha, love it!!


Oh, as I mentioned before, we know the Victorians were just as lascivious as anyone else, perhaps even more so -- they had to play nice in public, but in private ... there were a LOT of interesting goings on.

And really, who's to say that two guys couldn't get together ... at least in secret. It would have to be secret in that world, but it happened a lot more than you think. (Oh, and probably a lot of men went both ways ... mostly so their unsuspecting wives wouldn't catch on.)

Fun times!

Talitha001 10-25-2009 10:48 PM

lol it would add a nice twist to the story

Umi-No-Tenshi 10-26-2009 12:29 AM

Hey, Talitha, I was just going through the thread and noticed that you said this:

Now, I'm not trying to single you out or anything or tell what to do or not to, but I think it would be nice and respectful to the other RPers if we all read each others posts no matter if it did or didn't directly effect our character. Try to think of the RP as a story, you don't skip around when your favorite character isn't mentioned. We all take time to write our posts so it would be nice if someone read them, don't you think?

Talitha001 10-26-2009 12:31 AM

that was refering to the one with !unofficial and that other guy. I couldnt read theres the one lined posts get on my nerves. At minimum people should be able to come up with three lines. Ive read all the posts now of course. And I do read all the posts. I just skipped theres because in my opinion that guys a bad role player. Unofficial did good. Her posts where nice and at least one paragraph.

Umi-No-Tenshi 10-26-2009 01:02 AM

I found this interesting and since it relates to what we were talking about before might as well post it:

Quote:

Gays and lesbians

Lesbian activity is not illegal, but male homosexual activity is. In the Victorian age, most same-sex unions are tolerated if discreet and secret. For example, the relationships between painters Charles Ricketts and Charles Shannon, and between Lord Gower and his valet, are accepted. But overt gay behaviour is treated more harshly than anywhere else in Europe. Despite this, in London there is an underground gay scene, with its own vocabulary, codes, pick-up places and rent boys.


Talitha001 10-26-2009 01:06 AM

that is interesting. talk about discrimination. girls can but boys cant. how awful.

Reeny 10-26-2009 02:26 AM

Ah, Umi, very interesting. I thought it was something like that, though more interesting that it was more widely ... erm ... accepted amongst women, than men. But, that sort of does make sense. I think women were thrown together more in society, it seems. You always had to be chaperoned, whereas men, I believe, didn't have to? But, I may have that wrong.

Interesting, interesting.

Bounces 10-26-2009 02:29 AM

Hello all! I just received my character approval from Umi. I look forward to playing with all of you. Looks like she has already posted my character sheet in the second post of the OOC. What a diligent GM...thank you Umi!

Now to go make my first post...Just need to write my way into the story.

Talitha001 10-26-2009 02:36 AM

welcome bounces I hope you enjoy the role play as much as we have.
Alana looks forward to meeting you.

Umi-No-Tenshi 10-26-2009 06:39 PM

Welcome to the RP Bounces and thank you for your kind comment! I hope that you enjoy your time with us. ^_^

As for this koriia, she sent me a profile and then started posting without my permission. I'm a little peeved at that...Do you guys think I should accept her or give her the boot?

Talitha001 10-26-2009 06:47 PM

.........was it a well thought out profile?

Umi-No-Tenshi 10-26-2009 06:50 PM

Yeah, I thought that it was pretty good. You can make the judgement yourself, here:

Quote:

Username: koriia
Character Name: Lady Mareen
Character Age (18-20s please): 20
Character Appearance (Pictures and descriptions are fine):
Lady Mareen has a thin oval face, her skin is pale with hints of red in her cheeks, She wears no makeup believing it to be distasteful on most people, herself in particular. Lady Mareen does not believe herself to be very pretty, unknowingly she has an unearthly aura attributing to her being albino. She wears her long silver hair in a simple updo as is appropriate. Her dress is a Dark midnight blue with silver trim. It's a simple dress but very elegant as the trimming is delicately placed.
Her eyes are a pale yet striking shade of brown.

Characters Mask (Picture and/or description): http://lh6.ggpht.com/_TdBHNN7SItQ/R0...112507_005.jpg

Character Personality: She is a rather reserved person preferring to sit and watch the moon cross the sky at night or sit under trees and listening to the sounds of the Earth growing older. Kind and patient she hates fighting but can stand strong when she needs to.

Character Bio (Five sentences at the absolute least):
Lady Mareen was raised without many friends as she was a secluded child, being an albino and different from everyone around her. She is an avid reader and nature lover. She goes out on walks mostly at night with her maid servant Lini as the sun burns her skin easily. She is intelligent and has come to accept her position in life. Frail but strong willed she can be shy in front of new people. Her parents insisted that at her age she should be getting out more and insisted she go to the Tremaine twin's party. A family friend Mareen has had little to do with since she would keep to the library when visitors were over. Mareen was unable to leave at the allotted time and has arrived late to the party.

Talitha001 10-26-2009 06:52 PM

maybe a warning and then let her continue in the role play. It is a good profile. I like it and would hate to see her get upset. I say you should warn her against it next time and make her read the rules again to make sure she understood them all.

Umi-No-Tenshi 10-26-2009 06:56 PM

Alright, thanks, I'll accept her.

Oh and speaking of rules, Shadow, know that in the rules it specifically states no slang words IC, like dude or okay. If you could just tweek your post a little bit it would be awesome.

Talitha001 10-26-2009 06:59 PM

how you doin today Umi?

Umi-No-Tenshi 10-26-2009 07:01 PM

I'm doing fine, thank you Talitha. ^_^ Just finished my classes for today, but I still have a lot of homework to do. How are you?

Talitha001 10-26-2009 07:05 PM

alright I suppose working on a new role play but my mom wants to play cards so ima get off here and play cards with her for a bit.

Reeny 10-26-2009 07:23 PM

Umi, guess you already made your decision concerning ... uhm ... koiia, but ... I think maybe you should tweak the rules and say that anyone new has to wait until they are approved by you to start posting (it doesn't technically say that now, although, of course, there's something about etiquette to be said).

And, at this point, maybe a big disclaimer at the top, with a tweak to the game name that says you're currently not accepting new players? Seems we have quite a few right now.

But, of course, it's your game. ^_^

Umi-No-Tenshi 10-26-2009 07:41 PM

Hahaha, you just help me out too much, Reeny, thanks. ^_^ Just changed the rules and the title. I think that we have a good amout of players, an even number of males and females too.

Talitha001 10-26-2009 11:27 PM

thats hard to get lol
