Well, sure!

You still up for being the weird brother?
@Compulsive86

Wow! That's a good idea.

What about absentee parents and an older sister raising the two younger siblings? And it's the older sister that gets set up?
@Compulsive86 Are there any plot ideas or story themes you'd like to see?
Sweet. Considering I was gonna be the weird ass older sister I think we'll make a great team ^-^
@Compulsive86 Oh, well, I don't know, don't really have a plot in mind but would like to get a few people involved to see if we can work together and create a good, moving and dramatic story that we can all fall in love with.
Story Thread!

I'm thinking of starting a small group RP, very slice of life, very much revolving around family and romance.

Just putting feelers out there to see who would like to do that.

Not all the characters have to be related. Can be friends, partners step-siblings etc.

~~~~

Basic Plot: My character is saddled with the responsibility of raising her two younger siblings after the sudden death of their single mother. With no help, she's frazzled between learning the ropes of parenting and providing. Her dearest siblings think a good way to help her is to set her up with the "man of her dreams". Once she meets this man a potentially life threatening illness or accident could bring them closer.

Older Sister: Me
Younger Brother: TAKEN
Younger Sister: TAKEN
Mysterious "man of dreams": TAKEN

Name: Alice Marie Hawthorne

Age: 28

Height: 5'2"

Weight: 110lbs

Occupation: Tailor/Piano Instructor

Personality: Sarcastic, Kind, Stubborn, Workaholic and Friendly

Bio: Alice had moved out at the age of eighteen to go to college but, dropped out and manages to make a comfortable living working as a high end seamstress and a rather decent piano instructor. After the death of her mother Alice moved into the small family home to take over the care of her younger siblings. While she loves them dearly she's concerned that they'll be too much to handle. Often refers to episodes of SuperNanny for tips.

Who wants to play a dark and mysteriously tempting rake of an English Lord looking for a fiery American Heiress? Expect scandals! Potential arranged marriages, kinky sex and blossoming affection! True Historical accuracy NOT required.

The year is 1869 and Ethel Miller is a rich heiress.

As wild and untamed as the mountains she grew up in Ethel, is far from the biddable British Ladies he finds herself surrounded by. Her father had been a cattle rancher before the war and during he’d made a name (and a lot of wealth) for himself. A large chunk had been invested into the first Transcontinental Railroad and voila! At the ripe age of one and twenty Ethel Miller is thrust into a world unlike any she’d known before.

While herself and her father had been contented to return to the simple but, hard life of a rancher, Mrs. Miller had other plans. Grander plans. Plans to turn her eldest daughter into Nobility and sends Ethel and her sisters with a well respected English Governess into British High Society where men with titles and dwindling wealth are scrambling for any coin to save their shrinking properties and tenants.

But, Ethel is far from inclined to marry or see her sisters married off to some stingy stuffed up Lord or Duke that barely even liked her.

Hopeless romantic at heart Ethel vows to only marry for love if at all. She was a born and bred hard working American. She knew her way around wild horses, dense forest and bare mountain, not fancy dresses and grand ballrooms. Well educated and intelligent (despite the gossip surrounding her) Ethel, knows better than to give into the whispered nothings of hard pressed suitors. Or the titterings of old spinsters and widows about her supposed time lived with the Natives of the United States.

That is until him...

The Lord that sweeps her off her feet. He doesn’t disdain her choice of riding habit or her spirited and fiery personality and wit. He tempts her like no man ever has, daring her to believe that she could truly find love in cold and damp England. Though, her well guarded heart longs for the wild mountains and sun stained prairies of her youth.
Open again for a few rp's so bump!bump!bump!
There are none. Midnighters are just human.
It’s at the infamous Deja Vu “HE” finds himself frequenting. A high class escort club. Where the men are dangerous and rich and the women are beautiful, and eager to please for the right price of course, however he doesn’t find himself returning for any woman he could buy for the night. No, he keeps returning for the in house entertainment. He doesn’t know her by anything but her stage name: Delaina, but she’s not an escort, she’s not even a dancer. She’s a part of the band. Beautiful as the rest of women in the club but natural, wearing almost no makeup only a dark or sometimes vibrant red lipstick, sometimes she wears none at all. She’s not tall or model skinny, luscious but not overly so, everything about her is subtle aside from her eyes. They drew people in, what kept most of the clients coming back, frustrated that they can’t have the singer on their arm for the night so they spend more money on the others. But, she didn’t see that.

He never hears her speak other than when she sings, and it always seems like she’s singing for him. Flirting with subtle movements or gestures. Alice loves seeing him in his usual spot, on his usual day at his usual time, the way he looks at her thrills her, how his eyes never stray even when she’s singing a piece for the girls on stage as they tease and strip and arouse, excites her.

They both want more, but it’s fun playing this little game.

One day he finds himself in possession of Delaina’s well asked for number or rather he finds himself in possession of a rather interesting text from her number.

But, alluring, sexy performer Delaina is nothing more than an act. A face talented seamstress Alice puts on at night too shy to carry on with it during the light hours. Her day job as demure and feminine as it got, seamstressing was hard work, but it was a dying business, her job at the club at first had just been to pay the bills until he came in and made it all the more fun. He helped her breathe new life into her performances without even trying.

The well dressed man makes her feel sexy, forbidden, untouchable, desirable. He gives her a new height to her confidence, makes her feel more of a woman beside some of the most desired ladies in the city. Eventually she does sing for only him, picking her “freetime” songs to flirt, to tease to arouse. When she’s alone at night in her tiny apartment above her shop she imagines what it would be like to share his bed, she likes to imagine that he thinks of her in that exact same way as he touches himself or as he beds another. That’s it’s her face he imagines or her name he moans. The same way she cries out his, imagines it’s his hands on her neglected body or how his lips would feel ghosting over her skin.

It takes them months before “HE” finally gets her real name, by bribing her boss. Using the information to find her small tailor shop. Finding reasons to see her, get her close by getting hand made suits, but still she doesn’t talk to him beyond what is necessary, only laughing at first at a joke or a shy giggle when he’s bold enough to brush a lock of hair out of her face as he enters her shop almost as much as he does the club.

Alice even allows him to sit with her during the day as she works when he can before she would have to close and get ready for her night of singing at the club. Letting lust and emotion slowly build as they finally get to know one another, but the game they play at the club doesn’t lose it’s appeal.

Still he appears in his usual spot on his usual day at his usual time. Still she sings only for him only this time he knows it for sure and as tension builds he knows that soon he can have what no one else can.

But, Alice has some secrets of her own and as dark as his work is and as much as he’d like to believe she doesn’t know what goes on in his world, she has a past and life as dangerous as his.
