【WEARING | LATEST TUMBLR UPDATE | OOC | ♪】 The car grumbled in protest as she turned the key and yanked it from the ignition. Madeline peered through the window at the large, aging Cafe de Vermeil sign atop the maroon painted building. This place was very familiar to her. Before she received her license, she would take frequent walks down the street from her high school in an attempt to escape the crowds and never-ending noise. It wasn't until the owner of the cafe noticed her sitting outside in the snow and brought her a free cup of coffee (bitter as it was) that she became a regular customer. She found that she did not mind the owner, Mr. Paschal. He didn't bother her much, but he acknowledged her existence. She liked being acknowledged, yet unbothered. As her eyes drifted back down from the sign and to the entrance, she spotted someone...Thomas? No. There wasn't any possible way; she was never late--or second--or anything sub-par. She had even left school early! It just wasn't possible. She figured she could probably sneak around the back and pretend she had gotten there early--but that plan was quickly shattered by a smile and a wave from Thomas himself. Outraged, but trying to keep her cool, she undid her seatbelt and violently swung the heavy door of her car open (luckily no one was parked by her). She hit the lock button on her keys as she slammed it shut, the sound echoing through the semi-empty parking lot. Thomas perked an eyebrow. She was positively fuming on the inside, but took a few deep breaths to try and calm herself. "What are you doing here, Thomas?" Her voice was soft and a smile was clear on her face as she walked through the door, giving a halfhearted wave to one of the baristas towards the order counter. "I mean...Hello, and all, but class just got out. How did you arrive so early?" She pulled out her own seat and peered with dark, green eyes straight into Thomas'; the smile never leaving her face.
Yeah, I'm not changing it after already editing it... But if I make a video or something, I'll use this one (maybe if i remember). Hotlinking Zerochan is a no-no, but it's still possible to view the photo so I already got it. ~
Just playing along. 8) I just posted in the main thread, and it has a screenshot of the email, but it's nothing new. There's a text file attached with a list of everyone's name. (I didn't add that the email screenshot because depending on who joins, it'd just keep changing. xD) Welcome, Tequila! (And hopefully Hyuge!) Edit: So basically, all you guys have to do is...Well, post for whatever you decide you want to do with lunch. Don't worry about getting everyone together in one place yet. Just react however you'd like. We'll come together shortly. Also, with the opening, PLEASE WATCH IT IN HD. It makes a huge different with the colors and effects and stuff. I didn't spend 6 hours rendering it for everyone to watch it in 360P. >:L
Spoiler: ★ DAY 1November 30th, 11:25am 【WEARING | LATEST TUMBLR UPDATE | OOC | ♪】 Death. Misery. Regret. Anger. Loneliness. Spoiler: Diminished Hearts These are all common words that twist and float about Madeline head. Though they often invade and possess her thoughts, early years of tantrums and intense punishments have taught her how to control her actions. She is very well-behaved, actually; very quaint, soft-spoken and polite. Upon first glance, you may even think her frail and even a little naive. She takes pride in that not being the case. Madeline M. Moore is a complete and utter bitch. While she may deny that, part of her must know it to be true. She is awful. Wicked. Imagine it this way; ♥ This heart represents Madeline's spirit as a toddler. The now-sixteen-year-old spent most of her time alone back then. While she would often scream for her parent's attention when they were around, it seems she did not receive it (which is a pity, she would have probably turned out much differently had she felt loved). Her parents didn't just up and leave her, though. They were 'busy'. Work, or whatever. She had a nanny, of course, from ages one to six. Madeline was taught to call this woman Ms. Nagasaki, but she instead referred to her as Ms. 'N'. Ms. N was a strict but loving middle-aged Japanese woman with a daughter of her own. Madeline would often play with her, resulting in a love for Japanese animation and a taste for various Asian snacks. I won't go into detail at this moment, but it all started to crash and burn when her beloved nanny was found in the back of papa's car with his key in ignition. A few months later, Madeline stopped seeing Ms. Nagasaki, her only friend, and her papa completely. She didn't understand and she didn't accept it. ♥ As a child, she had frequent fits of temper tantrums when she didn't get what she wanted. Her mother was a mess after the incident, and simply had no time to give to her daughter--the daughter that reminded her so much of him. Her mother's spiral into depression was a quick and destructive one. She began to buy a variety of frozen foods and quick-snacks for Madeline to make on the frequent nights she had to fend for herself. (Madeline became quite chubby as a result; months and years of chips, hotdogs, cheap tv dinners...). She loved her daughter, she just didn't want to deal with her. At least she adopted her a kitten to keep her company when she was home alone, right? The kitten didn't make Madeline happy. She wanted it to, she really did. She had no one to talk to. The cat would nuzzle up into her affectionately, but that wasn't enough. It still hurt. She still didn't understand. She was still angry. Her mother began locking herself in her room during Madeline's tantrums. She wasn't even watching anymore! What did Madeline have to do to get her attention?! ♥ She was 12 when she killed the cat. Her mother had broken a promise to return home early from work for her birthday. They were going to watch movies together and make a big dinner, complete with dessert. When she didn't return, something snapped. Oddly, the cat found comfort in the steam from showers and baths, so Madeline ran one--and drowned it. The cat didn't fight back too violently. Maybe it trusted her. When she was finished drowning it, she took a knife from the kitchen and began to play operation with the stiffening carcass, right on mommy's bed. ♥ In the end, she had done it. She had got her glorious attention ...She was also sent away to live with her mother's brother, Uncle Reed. She did not like him. We will not get into that...yet. There were five minutes left before the bell for lunch rang, but Madeline was already trudging down the dim halls of Bellhurst High, backpack and books clutched to her chest. She had asked to go to the bathroom over ten minutes ago, but she was definitely not planning on going back to that filthy classroom. She did this at least once a week and never received any complaints from the teachers...Then again, she had her doctor write the school a note when she was put on anti-depressants a year ago, so perhaps everyone was too afraid of pushing her off the edge with something so silly. Besides, she was never any trouble. She was a good student, for the most part. She was planning on leaving for lunch like she usually did. There wasn't ever much of a reason to eat at school. The cafeteria food was bland and she never bothered to cook herself something. Today, though, was a bit different. Today, she was meeting Thomas to receive the final prints from a cosplay photoshoot. She wasn't willing to skip lunch for him, so they were meeting at the cafe she usually ate at. As she unzipped the front of her backpack and began to dig around for her car keys, she found herself semi-consciously flicking a gaze towards every shadow that passed her by, searching for familiar faces. Her mind kept darting back and forth between the task at hand and a strange email she had received the previous night. The names in the file attached to the email were so vivid in her head... The email had kept her up all night cleaning out her laptop and deleting suspicious files. She didn't believe it at all, it was clearly absolute bullshit, but it was obnoxious all the same. She decided to just ask Thomas about it when she got there. The weather was cold, but the sun was out. She smiled to herself as she stepped out of the school entrance and into the light. She had dressed appropriately; bundled up in black to attract as much warmth as possible. It was little things like that--being right and well prepared--that M prided herself on. It wouldn't take her long to drive down the street and be situated there before Thomas arrived. She mentally wished the interaction between them to be brief before buckling her seatbelt and starting up the car.
I'm not sure, to be honest! I wish I knew. :C
Currently writing up the first post and the start to the roleplay! There's a post on Tumblr going around right now between our characters (I'm sure it'll cycle). Those of you who are online tonight, play along with it until you reply to the RP. Edit: *DIES* I wrote my post and then lost ALL of it. I'm so demotivated now. ****ing ****.
Spoiler: ♛ Discussion ✖ Skeleton ✖ Updates Welcome[/url] to the intermission!! If you have no idea what Revive is, that is OKAY! This is an original role play, and you do not have to be from the last one in order to participate. Literally everything that carries over from the last one is so subtle and so minuscule that it does not matter. Everything will be explained to you here--so this is very, very new-player friendly. This is not a remake or a sequel. This is an open role play! No slots or anything like that. What you need to understand from Revive is that there are strange phenomenons in our world; Things that are unable to be explained or, at times, logically comprehended. Sometimes we call the "good" events miracles, while we label "bad" happenings curses or plagues. Skeptics may refer to either simply as coincidences. ...What you are about to experience has zero relation to any of that. You--and your friends--are just entertainment. It's as simple as that. With the last game ending rather abruptly, a Great Demoness has decided to extend her playtime. Due to the frustrations caused by the last game, Crestatia--the True Coordinator (or game master) is now using you to vent! You have, unfortunately, just gotten your life cut short. You and your friends now only have a mere 100 days to live. On the 101st day, you will all die at different times. Some will die in sudden accidents, others will be unnaturally compelled to do things that will result in their death. How fun! You have just received your death sentence via email. Crestatia (she calls herself a demon, but you're very free to not believe this) is very clear; Do not tell anyone (outside of those experiences the same thing). Do not attempt to take your own life. Do not make a deal with anyone other than her. Absolutely NO romance. ...And something else you can't quite make out. Whether or not you comply is entirely up to you. During the next 100 days things may get...a bit crazy. Good luck. The beginning of the RP takes place at school, the day after receiving the email. How your character handles the news is up to you. Please feel free to ask me /any/ questions at all in this thread or elsewhere. This probably looks as intimidating as ever, but it's really not that big of a deal or that difficult. Just communicate with me if you feel like you want to join but it looks super difficult or intimidating to you for whatever reason. [/url]✖ If you join, please be willing to collaborate with the story line. Contribute. Don't just follow my lead. Throw some plot-twists in there. Have fun with it! This is a collaboration. Thinking of it as writing a story together. ✖ If you kill someone off, you must do so with logical reason, otherwise Crestatia will revive them. Please do not kill someone just to do it. If you kill yourself, the same applies. Please have a reason. ✖ If you ARE killed off, please talk to me. I have something for you. ✖ While the role play is pretty much free-reign and able to be driven by anyone who is apart of it, if you do something too drastic or dramatic or...ridiculous, Crestatia will rewind time, or fiddle around with the scenario. That being said, please don't ask me to do something. If you have an idea that'll change things, just go through with it. If I don't like it, I'll do something about it. ✖ The biggest, most important rule is to please not join if you will not be consistently active. I mean this. I mean this so hard, omg, please. Please. Please. Please. I beg of you. This is meant to be a consistent role play. If you're more concerned with making long, pretty posts than you are with actually posting, get out. I'll be expecting everyone--including myself to post at least once every two days. At least. Note: EVERY THREE DAYS IS EQUAL TO ONE DAY IN THIS ROLE PLAY'S TIME. So if you're not posting regularly, you're going to miss out on literal days worth of RP stuff. Stay progressive! If you don't follow the rule with activity, I'm kicking you out (unless you have good reason). No exceptions. It'll be like you never existed. I will not harass or chase you around asking you to post. Either be responsible, or bye. (Note: It's okay if you can't always post on time, but if you don't at least /say/ something to me and post when you tell me you will, there's a problem) ✖ On that note, do not wait on me to post. Be self-sufficient and independent. Don't think "oh, well ___ hasn't posted yet so I'll wait" or treat it like it's a turn-based RP. Post when /you/ can post unless someone is legitimately holding you back. I am not your leader. If you have zero creativity or leadership skills, AWAY WITH YOU. ✖ You should know your character's bio. I really hate bios in role plays, (I think it's unrealistic to know everyone's past and backstory before the characters even interact) but if it helps you to figure it out, then I suggest you write it down somewhere. ✖ By the time the role play starts, your character MUST have somewhere to be contacted off-site. You can have a Twitter, Tumblr, LJ (or Dreamwidth) or Facebook for your character. Strong lean towards a Tumblr since it's easy to maintain and we could all follow each other, but any of those will do (please only choose one of the non-tumblr options if you for some reason cannot make a tumblr. If you need help making one of these for your character, let me know). You do not have to have this made when you first post your profile, but you should have one by the time the RP starts (if you have one before then, you can use the time waiting for fill it up with some content. Ask me if you need suggestions on what to do/how to do that). ✖ Your character can only be ages 12-17. ✖ You may have as many characters as you want. Please keep your character sheets SHORT. ✖ During the 100 days, some of you may recieve PMs from me. These PMs may give you knowledge of something no other character knows of, or may be Declarations (or commandments) by Crestatia herself. Please acknowledge these PMs. ✖You may join at any time. Just pay attention to what's going on. If you're new and the RP is already in further, I'll tell you how to make your entrance. Anyone can join. I really don't care how long your posts are as long as they're competent and you're actually posting. One liners are fine, so long as they aren't constant. ✖ This role play has the potential to be very fun! It should not feel like a chore to you or myself. I miss being able to role play to take the stress away instead of adding to it, so please, write with your heart. For those of you who actually enjoy role playing, this should be an enjoyable thing for you. I will be sure to make this plenty of interesting with more videos, voice clips and plot twists, so work with me!
No more new nominations will be accepted at this point. The two week mark is on the 14th so now is the time to really like/vote. Tallying things up now. We need more votes for the staff member one. Premium member is decided. Once you reach 6+ unbiased likes (votes for yourself don't count, votes from people you're dating or obvious super best friends with don't count--unless you've provided a detailed and thorough reason backing up your vote or nomination), I'm finalizing it. Time to go, go, go...
Good luck. Usually, to filter out my lines, I ctrl+find 'Jayn' and it highlights where I sing. I think I originally had them black because everyone was on a different skin during the vb days and you could see 'black' on all of them. New skins are in the works now as well so I don't really want to change it. Zooming in helps too, but it's rather simple to just highlight the parts you can't see, so. No biggie. ;P
No. Highlight it if it's an issue for you. It's been like this for a year, lol.
76, 203.
Gave you '<3'. Not the hard achievement though. It's going to be really difficult to get that achievement. You have to sing something that is just...Well, in simple terms, it needs to be something that you don't want to sing because that's how hard it is. Spoiler Not just you, but anybody. That's how hard it should be for that achievement, which is why it's also subjective. For example, PaW singing Hoot. Hoot isn't that hard of a song imo, but it's in Korean and it's something I couldn't imagine him ever picking--which is why he'd be eligible for that achievement if he completes the song in Korean. It's out of his comfort zone. Seasons of Love is right up Janson's alley--it's something I expected her to pick. You personally, Heart, don't seem to sing songs you don't want to sing or don't know at all...xD Abracadaveherpaderp wouldn't be hard for let's say...Slaughtermatic, because he digs the screamo. But Tummer was eligible for it because it was out of his comfort zone. Some people would find writing an original song difficult, but it's not out of my comfort zone, so I wouldn't get the 'hard' achievement either. Hopefully that makes more sense.
Don't forget to tell me what achievements you need, if you haven't...Updated.
I don't mind those. Just seeing people sit in here and refresh makes me anxious...So I don't update. ;c Hi. Updateeeed.
Seems like you guys are finally out of the thread, lolol. /open
For everybody sitting in the KN thread, I'm not updating it until no one is in there, so. Stop. Lol.
It has to be on purpose at this point.
Updated. A couple of you need to read the rules.
OKAY, BACK TO RULE 2 A DAY. <: Remember, when we reach 100, suggestions are closed! THANK YOU FOR THE SUGGESTIONS!!
- Rules In order to restart this RP, you would need Noteworthy's permission (and also you're supposed to message me before you post something like this). If he's mysteriously disappeared, there's no way you can ask him if he would be alright with you restarting his roleplay. In other words, no. You can't just repost or restart someone else's role play without their permission, whether they're active or not. Not unless it's a collaboration or something and you wrote it too. I don't think it would feel very good to work hard on an RP and log on one day and someone's restarted it or reposted it. You need to make your own original Avatar role play. /Locked until you can get permission. PM me with any questions.
