Pretty much anyone will be willing to RP. Just jump up and down asking "who will RP with me?" and you'll get plenty of responses.

I'm not afraid of them not doing it, I'm afraid of me sucking at it. D: Or getting writer's block in the middle of a group roleplay. Or doing something retarded and then everybody would notice it 'cuz there's more than just me reading it.

[Szar]

Or you can roleplay with a group, make some IC friends, and have a good time? Gah, pessimists, the lot of you.

Haha, totally understandable. Offer stands. Just need to clear it with Piper. 30% chance, he'll gut me if I don't consult him.

That's gonna be me driving in the fucking ice on the way to school in 7 hours. Violet leaves, and we get HAMMERED!

The reaction Mario had was due to my commenting on the pessimism of others, when I am, myself, a pessimist. That's all.

So what's goin' on in ya'll's story? <_<;

[Szar]

You should read it and find out. Gah, lazy, the lot of you.

XD, that was intentional, Mario, so don't get surprised.

I really thought people would get that.

Have you been to New England lately? we got smoked with snow, ice, and snowy ice shit.

That face tells me you didn't read it. No worries. Skipping most of the intro stuff, Vad saved Piper from South City police. They introduced themselves. They split up to complete a mission as a favor to Vad for saving Piper.

Vad finds his target, the building blows up. Trixie materializes, Vad is kidnapped. Piper finds a Dante's Abyss Toy Store, is about kill her target, when an injured Trixie enlists her help in getting Vad back from his grandfather Raden.

Thats the basic gist in a nutshell.

EDIT: At Alexander: NO DEMMIT, I miss my Connecticut 2 feet of snow. =(

[Misa Fujiroka]

Yeah, yeah, I'm about to read it. >_> I'm just trying to think of how to segue Misa into this without it being unintentionally hilarious. I've mostly been doing girly stuff and Kill Bill references so far, so trying to get all serious dramalama is going to be a test.

[Szar]

I hate New Hampshire.

To add something to this thread as a hatred:

Paula Dean.

Most people won't get the reference, but its this cooking lady on Food Network (my wife...). Anyway, she's the one big on southern cooking, but what irritates me to no end is that she constantly tells people how she's from GA, Savannah even, and uses the absolute most "Larry the Cable Guy" style accent. Even worse, she tends to just throw the term "Ya'll" into the most random places without reason.

I say that word all the time. There's nothing actually wrong with it. But its a conjunction of "You all". So use it during times you'd say that. I realize that "You" counts as plural form for that, but if addressing a group, a lot of people tend to think you are speaking to a specific person (happens on the net to "wtf why you calling me out?"). If I talk to a table, I switch between "You guys" and "Ya'll" at times, depending on the sentence, to keep from using the same repeat phrases so I don't sound like automated response guy.

This woman says things like "So I was watching something on tv, ya'll, and the weirdest thing came up. Ya'll, this woman was washing her vegetables over the dirtiest sink ya'll, and I just couldn't do something like that. I teach my sons to keep their stuff clean, ya'll, and you should as well."

Now while that's not that uncommon to hear in any of those phrases (nor out of place, though I wouldn't personally say most of them), its the fact that she can string out a conversation like this using that phrase so many times in the same paragraph. Keeping in mind that she's got the thickest accent short of Jeff Foxworthy (who I think is also from GA).

Most people have an accent here, but not THAT thick, nor are they THAT obsessed with the term "ya'll". Its overexaggerated for television to bring in the "southern country slur" stereotype people.

YA'LL JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND.

Paula Dean.

I live in the south, too. I mean, I don't have the accent or anything, but as someone who associates with as many rednecks as I do, I think Paula Dean is faking it. o___o Like, it's a gimmick. It's shtick. Larry the Cable Guy is the same way. He's a totally normal guy with a totally normal voice, and the Cable Guy is just a character he did for prank calls on radio shows. It caught on, so now he plays that one character professionally.
