Dear readers,

We can't do this anymore. We are leaving Richmond Manor.

- Sir Percival Blakeney, Bt. & Lady Marguerite Blakeney
An Invitation to Blakeney Manor

"Didn't anyone ever tell you that it's impolite to keep a lady waiting?" - Introduction
Hello and welcome to Blakeney Manor. My husband, Sir Percival Blakeney, is out, and will not be joining us today. I do appreciate you taking the time to drop by though. As a social lady of entertainment, it simply does not do for me to sit around so bored and do nothing!

So anyway, let’s get down to the reason we’re here, yes? I love roleplaying. Plain and simple. As a former actress of Le Comédie Française, it is a must that I will entertain and be entertained. To become someone else other than myself is enjoyable. “Why?” you may ask. My answer is this: I am in my element when I am here, where I am free to be someone else that I’m not. My life is very lucrative, but oftentimes, it is good to just escape the real world and let one’s imagination soar through the skies and into the universe.
"So why exactly am I searching for new players?" - The Proposition
Now, I am involved in several roleplays at the present, but that doesn’t mean I shouldn’t be able to take more on. I am always looking for new and exciting ideas to keep my interest piqued and my writing skills in good shape. However, not every one of the roleplays I’m involved in survive for very long. Perhaps I’ve lost interest, others have lost interest, the creator of the thread has disappeared, or the plot is stagnant. You see my dilemma here? I enjoy long-lasting roleplays, but they must have a decent plot and level of literacy, as stated in the title of the link that led you here.

Group roleplays are interesting in the way they are, but sometimes, things just don’t work out as one expects. Others are usually waiting on a single person to post before moving on, and as stated earlier, maybe that person has disappeared due to one reason or another. This is why I like to have one-on-one RPs here. As a part of a one-on-one RP, you have my direct attention and we have no distractions inside the RP itself. Keep in mind, however, that real life will always be calling, and I won’t be here (although being here is my life, in a sense).
"How do I know you're any good?" - Credentials and qualifications
If you’d like to see my credentials, I can tell you that I’ve been roleplaying since I was twelve and my style has evolved. I’m twenty-one with a thing for my perfectionism of spelling, and adequate-but-not-perfect grammar. I won’t be listing the defunct roleplays that I’ve participated in before because it would be too much of a hassle to backtrack and look for everything, but I can tell you I’ve done Star Wars, Ouran High School Host Club, Final Fantasy/Kingdom Hearts, and quite a few original roleplays.

Anyway, enough of that. Here's what I'm looking for and I hope someone is willing to be one of my takers.
"The Storybook" - Plot Line Suggestions
I would generally refer to this site as a base.
The Big List of RPG Plots, by S. John Ross
"For you see love is one thing I do well" - Interests and Non-Interests
Fandoms
Final Fantasy (Aeris with Sephiroth/Squall), (Squall/Quistis), (Quistis/Irvine), etc
Death Note (Light/Misa)
Shin Megami Tensei: Persona
Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark Hunter series: Considering that there's already a thread for this, I will direct my characters there.
Historical: This can range from Tudor/Elizabethan era, Marie Antoinette/French Revolution, Regency, and Victorian. I still have yet to actually get into one of those so I hope there's people around who are interested in it.
College: Not just high school, but COLLEGE. High school drama is definitely a minus in my book.

More to come, as I currently prefer original RPs rather than fandoms.

- I like a lot of movies and series, so just give me a title or something before I list out every single thing in my library.
- I'm picky with anime so there are a LOT I'm not familiar with, especially if they were made within the past six or seven years. Just ask me and I'll approve/disapprove it.

Historical (this is a bit redundant because I just wrote it up there, but just for reiteration...)
Ancient Greece/Rome
Medieval
Tudor/Elizabethan
Marie Antoinette/French Revolution
Regency
Victorian
Early 20th century
- NO STEAMPUNK. I don't know anything about it, so don't ask me.

"A touch of forewarning..." - Rules of the Game
I’d love to meet and greet with new people. Hopefully we’ll get along. Do remember that I have the right to turn you down if I don’t want to roleplay with you. For the most part, I am on good terms with the people I am involved with, roleplay-wise. In some cases, a few people can be annoying here and there. Other than that, I do my very best to provide you with a decent reply and attitude if you should show me the same courtesy. Unless you’re on my block list, in which some people have been sent that way, so I won’t be talking to you at all.

  • I prefer to play females (mainly because I am one and pretty much know how to act like one) but on occasion, I do play males.
  • A certain level of maturity is highly appreciated. There are only a small handful of people I can RP with that aren't within my age range (I'm 21 and in college) who I am comfortable with. So you have to prove to me you're literate and well-equipped to not act stupid. I get it, some of us need to be laid-back every once in a while but when you're acting like a child on a daily basis, it's not cool. I'm an adult, for heaven's sakes!
  • That being said, please give me an RP sample. No one-liners needed. If you can’t be bothered to write at least one paragraph for your sample, don’t bother posting here.
  • If they are needed, we’ll double up as minor background characters to move the storyline. This is usually imperative, so expect it to happen.
  • I prefer paragraphs. Whether it's a minimal one or multiple paragraphs, I don't care. Just at least have one decent paragraph per post and I will try to do the same.
  • I speak English. I hope you do, too.
  • That said, spelling is a must. Sometimes I can't get what people are trying to say and it kind of irritates me.
  • Write in a normal, grammatically-correct format
  • No begging/trolling/flaming/bashing
  • Man up and let me know if you want to DROP the roleplay. Don't just up and quit on me without a word of notice!
  • I can change these rules whenever and however I want.
  • Like I said before, I'm a college student, so my replies will come whenever they come. HOWEVER, I check back on my threads on the daily, and do my best to write a response.
  • I know you're busy, so I fully understand if something is pestering you at the moment preventing you from replying. Don't worry about it. We've all got lives. Just let me know what is going on so I don’t think you fell off the face of the planet.

Death_to_the_reaper 08-11-2010 05:47 PM

I never really got into final fantasy.
But I'd like to do a Medieval role play.

Wavi 08-11-2010 06:10 PM

OMG! Booth/Brennan!
I still await the day that happens.

Marguerite Blakeney 08-12-2010 07:35 PM

Wavikz: You and me both : ) We just need to find someone to play a really good Booth. And Brennan. I don't think there's anybody who can match them if they tried XD *dies*

Reaper: Got a storyline idea for it?

Wavi 08-12-2010 08:40 PM

I agree. No one can match the real Booth and Brennan. So I'm thinking we should just hop on the set and write their lines down for them where the FINALLY hook up. Lol. There are been sooooo many close calls, but then nothing happened. It killed me. I'm telling at the TV going - KISS HER YOU MORON! XD

So what's your favorite Bones episode?

Marguerite Blakeney 08-12-2010 10:05 PM

WE SHOULD TOTALLY HOP ON THE SET AND KIDNAP THEIR WRITERS AND TAKE THEIR PLACES! Season 6 is supposed to be the one where the underlying romance gets more extreme anyway, 'specially now that Boothy's got another lady.

...okay let's see. Loved the one where they found her mom. Also love the one where they're in Vegas and they do the Tony/Roxie thing (ooh that's hot!). Love the one where they find her dad and her brother, specifically because of the "Running Up That Hill" song. The one where Hodgepodge and Bones get buried alive...the one where Zack gets his doctorate. I have YET to see the 100th episode everyone's talking about, but I bet it's gonna be up there!

So you see, I only have Season 1 and 2 on DVD. 3, 4, and 5 require a bit more thinking and research to figure out which ones are my favorites. : )

But all-time favorite is either the Mommy Brennan one or the Vegas one.

Wavi 08-13-2010 01:36 PM

Let's do it! But then again, I want to know if they will happen without our help. xD >.> Boothy, stop gettin' ladies. GET BRENNAN! I feel like I should be spraying water at him every time he gets someone else. lol

Hmmm, I'm not sure if I've seen the one with her mom. x_x I've kinda been watching them out of order and all over the place. I've seen all of season five, but I'm not sure how many I've seen from the other seasons. ^^; But I would have to say I love the ones with Boothy and his fear of clowns. xD I also liked the part when he shot the truck. x] He's just a handful. But favorite, favorite episode. That would require more thinking. Ha ha. XP

Oh, and I HATE all the ones where Boothy got hurt. T___________T I was crying. Jerks making me cry. Speaking of crying, I was so freaking depressed with the episode where he was in the hospital. I was spazzing out saying "I'll never watch Bones again if he dies!" >.< I'm such a freak.

Marguerite Blakeney 08-13-2010 05:57 PM

OHHHH my gosh, the one where Bones gets kidnapped and gagged and then Booth saves her even though he should be IN THE HOSPITAL <3333 Pain in the Heart funeral was cute too. The rest of the episode was like wtf?

Brennan's mommy one is the 1st season ending.

And truck shooting...OH DUDE, GORDON-GORDON!

Wavi 08-13-2010 06:01 PM


I thought you might approve of this. :]

Marguerite Blakeney 08-13-2010 06:25 PM

omg YES, THANK YOU! That totally put a smile on my face!

Wavi 08-13-2010 06:30 PM

You're welcome! I was a little sad that Booth wasn't shooting the truck, but oh well, I liked his mad dancing skills. The one I saw the end of last night was great.

“Did you just call us tictoc?”

The Clue reference was great too. Too bad Brennan didn't get it.

----------

Is there a Bones thread on Mene? I feel terrible for Boothing up your request thread :P

Marguerite Blakeney 08-13-2010 07:32 PM

There IS in the Media section, but it's not very active. And WHY SHOULD YOU FEEL TERRIBLE? I'm friggen obsessed with Booth...err...Bones!

I know, I was like WTF HOW DOES SHE NOT GET THE CLUE REFERENCE, OF ALL THINGS?!

Wavi 08-13-2010 07:38 PM

Lame. I guess no one appreciates them like we do. True. I love stalking... I mean looking up Booth, ummm... Bones. X]

Bones is special. Good thing Boothy loves her. XD I felt so bad for him. He was trying, really trying and then BAM, nothing. *pats Booth on back* There, there Boothy, it'll be okay.

Awww, they are so happy! X3

LMAO I had to share that. X3

Toffee 08-13-2010 11:09 PM

Well it better damn well be okay! He poured out his heart to her!

And omfg I just can't concentrate on anything today - chest congestion has rendered me with a difficulty in breathing properly today. Ugh. But I wanna see more S5!

Marguerite Blakeney 08-18-2010 11:02 AM

Always looking, but just a heads up, school for me starts on the 30th of this month. Since everything is pretty much slowing down, so will be my presence on Menewsha when the university claims a hold of my person for the semester and I shall disappear into the midst of term papers, math problems, and everyday stress.

Until then, let's see what unfolds, shall we?

Wavi 08-20-2010 06:53 PM

So since you were looking for a literate roleplay, I decided I would share this one with you. It's based off of the TV series LOST. --x-- That's the link. Anyways, I understand the time constraints, so it's completely up to you whether or not you join (and obviously if you're interested).

Marguerite Blakeney 08-20-2010 07:41 PM

I have no idea what the series is about ^^ Got a summary in a nutshell?

Wavi 08-20-2010 07:42 PM

Pretty much a plane crashes on an island and some people survive. XD LOST in a nutshell. Oh and then there are obviously people living on the island that cause even more drama. Ha ha. I'm just doing a spin off of it. So you really don't need to know anything about the show. ^_^

Marguerite Blakeney 08-22-2010 08:37 AM

I've been playing a survival game on Wii for a few days last month...so it sounds pretty interesting.

dragonjake 08-22-2010 10:25 AM

could I join a RP please?

Marguerite Blakeney 08-22-2010 10:27 AM

I don't have a group one at the moment o.o

dragonjake 08-22-2010 10:30 AM

Marguerite: I meant, can we make one together?

Marguerite Blakeney 08-22-2010 11:00 AM

Oh. That depends, what are you looking for?
