[color=orange][i]To be perfectly honest I had almost forgotten his face, those strangely attractive amber eyes and messy golden blonde hair. He left with his family, a vacation he said. He told me he would be back in a week, he was gone for six months. When he showed back up at school I was unreasonably angry, no calls or texts, no letters! He had vanished off the face of the planet for half a year, and most importantly he never told me anything about it. To top everything off it seemed like he was avoiding me, we would lock eyes and he would turn away, quickly moving in the opposite direction and disappearing around a corner. When I finally caught him, all the words fell away from me, everything was out of reach as I finally looked at him up close. His eyes were no longer as bright as they once were, the mischievous glint now a shadow of it's former self, though more often than not they were void of anything even resembling emotion. Just under his eyes it became infinitely clear that he had not slept well, if at all over the last few days. And the most striking of all were the massive scars, as if he were attacked by a great beast. He was as stunned as I was, and just like before he left, he regained his composure and the all-together too familiar glint in his eye returned, though now that I saw the truth the facade did not convince me.

"[/b][/i] [/color] Hi there~ Here to try and set up a story for my new character here, and I could not think of a better way of explaining it than an example post from Muse 2. In this, my character is a lad raised in an above average family, used to generally large amounts of spending money and being a professional brat. He lives in a small seaside town with Chara2 ( <--- This could be YOU :D ) Chara 2 comes from quite a bit less, perhaps they live with only one parent, perhaps they live in an overcrowded home with multiple siblings unlike MC, who is an only child. Perhaps they are barely an adult, either fresh in college or barely our of high school and struggling to pay for their apartment. Either way we have it, our characters are/were close friends, spending lots of time together and generally being poor influences on eachother. With their age they had yet to understand it, but they were a bit closer than just freinds or ' besties ' and this quickly became apparent to Chara 2 when MC failed to return when they said they would. Half a year would go by before Chara 2 sees him again, and it is extremely apparent that he has changed. More than happy to change things up, and add to the plot. A few things I do not wish to change though. MC is male, we can partner him up with any other gender be it male/female or NB, but he will be male and identify as such. I would also like to keep the general idea for the plot, as I am craving this a lot atm and am not looking for massive changes. Both our characters, at time of posing, must be 18+ and so must my partner. Also, as you can see I enjoy posting a fair amount, hopefully I will be posting at least the amount shown in the example, if not a little more or less depending on several factors, please try to do the same. Seems I should have posted him sooner, but better late than never. I interested please pm or post here, I am more likely to respond to a pm that has substance ( Your ideas, thoughts, character or even just a return writing sample. ) Let's see what we can come up with together aye?

[/h2] [/color] A spoiled boy with a less than masculine build, Gene grew up getting near everything he ever wanted. He was an only child born to two successful parents, his mother a tech guru worth a solid 10 million, and his father a professional chef after returning from the military. To say the very least, he was the focus of his parent's attention, even if that attention was focused on spoiling the boy rotten. A mischievous lad, he enjoyed bragging about things he knew nothing about and starting rumors in school to watch the fur fly, though he never started anything too horrible. While generally not known for being well liked in school, people tended to deal with him for his money, as is often the case. Under the table and away from prying eyes he enjoyed music and art, able to play the piano and the violin, though more often than not he enjoyed simply listening to music in his room alone. His room showed his artistic side, every wall sporting some kind of creation, be it a frighteningly vivid depiction of the town's port, a portrait of a classmate, or whatever else had caught his fancy. Yes Gene was a bit of a child prodigy, and though few actually liked him all could say he got worse since he came back after his unexplained absence.
