Oh.. I don't really know. I'm not familiar with the mafia really, as I said. Didn't particularly know what I was doing, I guess. So, should I change it or not? I assumed "family" meant they'd share a name.

I can change it, or we can incorporate that they're somehow related. You pick.

@Bowie, Everyone has something that not everyone would understand. Like, I have colorguard, which most people don't even know exists. xD
Theatre I understand a bit, I'm kind of into it.

Yes, this is true... But, it doesnt' always have to do with the brain, sometimes you don't have to think about something or have it processed mentally for it to have an affect on you, which makes it somewhat not psychological; but, sometimes it does have to do with cognative processes, which would make it somewhat psychological.
Liking numbers isn't a matter of cognative behavior.

If you'd said you were a sophmore, I think I still would have gotten a basic idea. Then I would have brobably inquired further, and been liked "Ah yes." Though, I thank you for the instantaneous explanation so I wouldn't have to ask further.

Okay; that's fine too. XP

Clorissa; Oh, sorry. I forgot about that; that you were having another RP planned in this thread. xD

[email protected] Not at all. XD Like, they tend to be numerous people from numerous different families, but the heads of it are usually from the same family because they pass the group down to their successors.
Are you sure you wanna do mafia?

[email protected] XD The people who work in theatre are so very interesting. XD
AND insanely funny.
Weaven. XDDD

It doesn't have to be cognitive to be psychological. ;3 That's just one of the many branches in psychology. :3 *just finished a semester of psycho, so I'm quite knowledgeable on it right now* XD
._______.

You're welcome. XD I'm glad to spare you. :3
What are you? Still in high school or college or...?
And if college; what's your major?

I did mah post. XD I have a couple ideas of where it could lead without your dude having to interact with mine first, but that's all up to you to choose where it goes from that. :3 I hope it was okay for a starter.

Yes, they are.
Weaven?

I know; I've taken psychology. Twice.
By saying it was psychological, you seemed to be imply cognitive anyway, which, is what that would fall under any how. Likes and dislikes are typically classified as part of cognitive behavior because they require thinking (usually, not always).

What am I? I am human.
Psychology.

Alright, I'll look and see where I can go from there then. I can usually work anyway. :3

One of the guys in theatre was ranting about Weaven during one of the shows. XD
It was just to tick somebody off because it was working,
but Weaven is the place where women go, instead of heaven. It's below heven and they spend their time cooking and knitting for the guys because they like to. XDD Then they sent it up through tubes. The hot ones do it naked because the guys watch them do it. XDD
No offense to women though, he was just kidding and such. o-o;;

XD Oooh yayz.
:3 Well, when I said it was psychological, I just meant it had something to do with brain function, not necessarily cognitive thinking however. Even if it's something unconscious that we choose, XD Like Freud always sayyys.... >_>;;

That's psychology?
I though that was like.. philosophy or science or something.

Mkay. :3 I'll wait excitely.

I think it would be fun to do.. Would you prefer to switch to a different sort of thing, due to my small amount of knowledge on the subject? Or would it be okay if I tried to wing it and whatnot, and get help from you if I'm totally clueless?

And if we keep to Mafia.. Do you want me to change the name or not? D:

If you're fine with it, then we can keep it.^^ I just wanted to be sure you were comfortable.
I'll help you when I can for sure. ^^:;

And the name is up to you. He's your character. If you keep it, then we'll work it into whatever story line we get going. And you change it, that's fine too and we'll work with it. >.<

I guess I won't change it, then. You just seemed kinda mad or something, that I'd made that his name.

So, how do we go about plotting this? We already know that we start with the two separate families grouped and the capturers planning, right? And then after that they'll take action and go to take my guy captive.. We need to figure out where though. And then what will happen after that.

Really? ^^;; I'm sorry if it came off that way. XD I just meant for it to sound like an inquiry.

The beginning I don't think needs too much plotting since we're just setting it up. Our two families are obviously in some kind of war against each other, your struck first which is why my family is taking the head of your family into custody. And it doesn't completely matter what your guys are doing because one way or another, he will be captured. XD What would you like your family to be doing in the beginning?

Oh.. I wasn't meaning for him to be the head of my family. The son of the head. :P

And I don't really mind.. Perhaps just meeting for a family discussion about the current affairs or something would be fine.

xD Well course not. That's what my dude is good for. :3
Wouldn't be fair to have you being BOTH the heads. ;p

Okay, then would you like to do the first post or should I? And which side are we starting with? Your family or mine?

Nono, you aren't getting it, I think. Neither of my guys are actually the heads of their family..
The Luciano boy is the son of the head, who is his father, and I don't even know the "position" of the other. Just sort of an active member in your guy's family, I guess.

Oh gosh. DX I knew that too. >.<
I do get it, it just.. slipped my mind momentarily when I was posting that. XD I remember we decided your dude wasn't the head of yours yet.
Baahg. Sorry.

Okay, that's fine :) -patpat-

I don't particularly care if I have first post or not. If you don't want to, I will.

And uhm, yours, I think.

xDDD
I think that's funny.
If I heard someone talking about that, I'd defiantely be cracking up.

Well, we're both right and one of us is more right than the other, let's leave it at that because I don't have the mental functionality to go on and on about this. xD

I don't know what you're talking about. x3
I meant psychology is my major.

Sorry it took so long. ><* Everytime I came on to do it, it was too late for me to think, or read, or remember what I was doing.
Really really sorry!
owo;;;;

I did finally post though, and it's kind of short, because I'm tired. xP But at least you can post now. xP
I'll try not to go that long again without posting. <3

xD Okay; I'll get something written up soon and I'll be starting with Jesse. :3
When/if you wanna switch, let me know at any time and we can plot.

@Jessi: It was definitely.. a moment. XD It was great because he was in costume and had this black, curly haired mullet and green clothing from like the 1700's. xDDD He was a drunk in that play ._.;;

Okay. I can totally live with that.^^;;
Sorry if I sounded confrontational in any way.
And psychology is such an awesome major to have! What do you want to do with the degree?

It's fine. ^^;; I took a while this time because I was neglecting my internet life/ my internet has been going on and off.
Don't push yourself though, this is for fun and all.^.^

That would have been completely hysterical. I can totally picture that! xD

Well, don't be sorry. xD You did, but I bet I did too, so I apologize as well. :3

I want to be either a social worker, or child psychologist. I really want to work with children- maybe even have a daycare at some point in my life. Can't say I'm not qualified if I have a degree in their mental health as well as knowing a thing or two about their physical as well. xP

Are you majoring in it as well then; or minoring? I don't quite remember if you said either at all.. owo;; If you were, what would you want to do with yours?

Ah, that's fine. I don't expect the RP to rule your life. xP I might be off for a few days here and there as well. Either I've gone somewhere without a computer or I'm at a friend's house and think it'd be rude to be on it. Cx Either way, I'll post as soon as I can.

XD YUSH. I think I have a picture somewhere if you care to see XD

If you get to apologize, so do I D: XD

Ooooh. That's cool. Children are really interesting.
>_> Their always so imaginative. And very blunt.
They aren't meant, they're blunt. XD

And I'm not majoring or minoring in psychology, but I took general psych as a GER for my degree. <3 Because I loved it the most out of all of the things on that list. Haha. But I might take more classes in that field it I have the time/money. D: College is so expensive....
I'm actually majoring in Theatre BTW.

I'm so with you there! It's awkward doing stuff on the comp at other peoples houses. Even if they are sleeping or something.

I would love to. :3

Fine then. We shall both apologize, and I shall accept your apology on the grounds that you accept mine. >:3

They are. xP And so precious... They don't deserve to be burdened with psychological disorders that can be helped (or even can't be). That's part of why I want to help them.

Ah... I see. What do you want to do with that then? x3
College IS expensive. Dx That's part of my problem.

Yeah, I know. xC It's so weird to me. xP

Gosh darn it! D: Out of all the people on the cast he was the ONLY one I didn't get a picture of. D: Seriously... I thought he wasn't that one... T____T
Sorry for getting hopes up if they even did.

I can deal with that! >D

That is very true. :3 I think most of the time, kids don't have that many disorders, but parents take them in and get them meds for things they don't have and the meds make them develop it later on. I mean; ADHD in kids? No way! They are already hyperactive and have hard times paying attention. It's natural at that age. D:

I actually want to be a singer, but their music program suuuuuuuucks unless you are a classical person. They won't even let their private tutors help you at all unless you're training classically. D:
So I'm using theatre to keep on the stage. <3
I love it though.

T___T
The government should pay for college or something..

Awwh, that sucks.
But it's totally okay. I can picture it basically and it's still awesomely hysterical.
(I have a pretty good imagination. Probably from years of making up stories and writing novels and such. LOL)

Awesome. :3 I love how well we get along and agree. ^w^: Lol

OMG. I finally found someone with the same POV as me! xD ADHD in young kids is a myth, it's their age, not their brain. AND I hate how parents overthink problems with their kids and turn them into psychological illnesses; and if you're a professional that they take their kid to, if you disagree, they get second opinions and on and on until they find someone to agree with them. Especially when they have tons of money.
My aunt is kind of like that, and it drives me nuts. Her son is two years old, going to be three in a few months, and since he was almost two, she's been sending him to a speech therapist, and classes for stupid stuff and on and on... She's taking every little thing the doctor says that's wrong with him and turning it into a disorder. Like, he doesn't always look at you when he talks, so now they're saying he has a psychological disorder! BOF! D=<

Oh, that's awesome! I'm sorry your school's program sucks though. ]=
Well, depending on what genre you want to sing, can't you train classically, just to get the ideas from that and transfer them to the genre you want? I don't even know if that made sense. owo; Like, I dunno. Dx Sorry, that probably didn't make a lot of sense to anyone but me.

College should just be free. The government should pay the schools so they can stay open, and then it should be free for everyone who wants to go. Adults and teachers and everyone always say you should go to college, but then it costs so damn much money! That's the problem more often than not, not everyone can afford it, even with financial aid.

By the way, I'm lovin' our RP. I get so excited everytime I see you've posted. XwX; Lol.
And do you actually know French, or are you running it through translators? Because I'm typing mine out and don't know how to program in the accents for the words and you have all your accents so I feel lazy. owo;
Cx

The Twilight-bashing and not-rape made me giggle. x3
I would be very interested in roleplaying with you. I am, regrettably, not advanced-literate, but I can try to keep up. :'D
If you would like a sample, I would gladly comply. I can work at an adv.-lit level on a good day. xD

With every term of yours I read, I got happier. xD
Especially the religion ones. I love playing characters who have a faith; it makes their posts more exciting. Somehow they all ended up a little... intense... but... > >

I would love to hear anything that you want to do.
It was a relief to see that you had somewhat of a plot idea. (At least, that's why I got out of it.) If not, we can always come up with something together. :3

edit:
Admittedly, I stalked your posts a bit to see what I was up against, and pertaining to the 'I can try to keep up' comment: no, I can't. xD
At least not to your intro-posts.
._____.

Bowie: Did you just put a relevant twist on true history? Nice. xD
I liked the real story about The Blood Countess though. She was psychotic. xDDDD

@Jessi: XD Well yayz~
Sorry about that though D: I have shots of everyone else and a couple wigs like his if you want to see any of those. XD They are the style and anything anyways. >.<
But bah--yay for imagination!

XDD So do I. <3

Yeah--actually, I think most 'psychological disorders' in kids is a myth. There are things like PTSD, but even then it usually turns up more around puberty/adolescence. :s If your kid acts bad in class or doesn't talk, it's not a mental issue, s/he's probably just shy or you let them get away with crap at home. *shrugs*
That's insane. D: Three years old man D: Let him grow up first. I would like... mentally smack your aunt for that--and all of the doctors that agree with her paranoia...

This is true; but when I was learning about the program, they told me that everything I've learned up until now they would have to erase to start training me classically and I was like... No. I'd learn it along side to better myself, but I would not erase 18 years of music--most of which I've had training during. It made plenty of sense--most singers train in various genres(or at least some) to get a better range and better control, and I would also, but their private teachers are for music students only and then they are so set on erasing what I know since it's not 'classical' mind set.

I know. D: They should do that; and as soon as you have your high school diploma you should be able to enter, granted, some might have tests you have to take to get in, but the loans is like this HUGE turn off for so many people. D:
And then those that take financial aid usually don't finish and have the debt and no college degree anyways.

>.< Me too. XD
I'm glad you're enjoying it!
And... and... I'm cheating. >.< I don't know French, I chose German instead. D:
;s So I don't know how to do the French accents, but I know how to do the German ones. :D

And yes... yes I did put a relevant twist on a true story. XD
I thought it was only appropriate at the time.

@Hale: XD I'm glad. I tried to keep it lively and not boring while writing my thoughts. :3
I'm not always looking for advanced-literate people; I can usually adjust, but I just can't stand one liners because I don't feel like there is enough information in them >.<
But I'm fine with not writing a story book every time^^;;
Samples--I really don't need since this is all for fun and not really a job interview. XD If we get along and have at least one and a half paragraphs with decent grammar and spelling and everything, then we're probably fine. And so far, you look like you have it. :3

XD Religious characters are freakishly fun to play! They do get a bit intense, but that just makes them betterer.

I'd also love to hear if you have anything you'd like to do or if you'd like to work on a vampire roleplay together, it all depends, but we should work on some variation plot wise so it's not like pink is the new orange roleplay xp

XDD N'aww don't be intimidated. I'm not that mean / scary.
*A*
well.. maybe a little... *cough*
Intro posts are ALWAYS pretty big. After that; it's usually based on what I'm given to work with; and if someone else does the intro, then I do an intro working from that so it's usually closer to the length of the other persons--but not always. It depends on how much information I feel needs to be put into that intro piece to make it make sense. XD

If I could write a story-book every time, I would. XD It usually depends on whether I like the character I made or not. D: Or if my partner is pleasant.
Why, thank you. :'D Compliments on my grammar is / too tired to discern / are nice.

They are! Maybe that's why I enjoyed Death Note. > >

I... really... have... absolutely nothing. I've started about four new roleplays yesterday and today, and I have sadly used up most of my plot ideas. They weren't that great in the first place anyway. XD I have a request thread @ roliana where I have, I think, two plots. I will be adding more in the morning (or noon, whenever I finally manage to roll out of bed). They aren't very good, and the only one that would probably pique your interest is the second one. Which isn't very good, again. :'D

My intro posts are usually big. :'D
...Usually... > >
Lately I've been doing roleplays with semi-lits (IRL friends) by request to help them improve, so even my intros don't really span past five paragraphs in those instances. D:
But I will work my ass off to try and stay on your level! xD -hyped-

Actually, I'm not hyped. I just biked ten miles on four hours of sleep, so I am going to bed now. > > Good night~ I'll talk to you whenever my morning is. :3
