Expect to see a formal skip notice coming pretty soon. We have been on this event for a LONG WHILE (I suspect a Sol City record has been set on the Art Gallery/Showing)and it's near time to bring about the finale for Chapter Two. Stay tuned. We'll at least do one more skip before we announce the finale.

FRONT PAGE

Special Report by Rita, An artful Drama

Hello Readers!! Rita from Sol Spills here and boy do I have a treat for you. So this reporter got a press interview at the show for Siobhan Murphy. If you recall a few episodes ago we debated who was dating whom. Well if you can believe Maria Olympus her daughter was dating Mr. Nicolosi. Here is a direct quote from Olympus herself. “As for the current rumors it seems we have a classic situation, one person sees things differently to the other and had a different idea what the relationship was…” Sounds to me like she’s calling Nicolosi out that he was dating her daughter and that her daughter is the innocent in this tale.

But that’s not all she went on to say “Things failed as many do and what one saw as a friend the other a boyfriend. And well. Misunderstanding has escalated quite badly. Sorry folks. No love triangles today.”

That seems rather misleading does it not? Why not give a firm yes or no? She goes on to give particulars about either her daughter’s relationship with her current girlfriend. “No they met recently, but both have my approval and wish them well as a couple. And no, I just want to see my daughter happy with a supportive partner.”

Wow talk about harsh. If she claims that they were in a relationship then says he wasn’t supportive isn’t that confirming that they were. On top of all this the impression that was given in the press conference, tiny as it was, was that we were not to take comments from Olympus’ daughter. So naturally we all asked Siobhan Murphy. To which we were told. “Mr. Nicolosi has not dated anyone prior to myself for quite some time, meaning more than a few years. If you were told otherwise it is a complete fabrication and you need to consider the source. I have had nothing but support from him even before we started dating. He isn’t here tonight due to commitments that were made prior to this event.”

All this juicy news but I left the kicker for last, an unplanned pregnancy is in the offing for Ethan Aster. His new girlfriend will hopefully they will be enjoying the little patter of tiny feet. That's all for now in Sol Spills.

Sol City PD Fights Crime Underwater With Sneaky Submarine

Sol city Police have anounced their latest acquisition in the fight against crime that has blighted the city in recent months. Police Captain Marko Ramius of the proudly revealed the military-surplus diesel powered underwater crime fighter to a large crowd at the Sol City docks. “I want to emphasize that this submersible craft came at no cost to taxpayers,” Ramius explained. “With the blessing of the City Council, we requested such a watercraft last year under a federal program to outfit local police departments with surplus military equipment.”

“While the craft reached the end of its usefulness for the U.S. Navy, the civilian applications of this submersible are numerous,” Ramius continued. “You never know what’s out there and we’re here to protect the citizenry from the worst case scenario,” he added in a phone call Tuesday. “Imagine the horror people would experience if a large military craft passed beneath their boat or emerged from depths within view of the beach—we’re here to stop that from happening. This sub will make a strong statement about our power and might,” Hirsch continued. “The people want to know their police will do whatever it takes—whatever it takes—to maintain order and control,” he said. “They want to see us as an unstoppable force beyond the reach of sleazy criminals’ lawyers and legal loopholes.”

Named Jaws VIII by SCPD, the submarine will be deployed to patrol the shoreline on weekends only leading up to Fourth of July, when patrols will be stepped up to seven days a week through Labor Day.

SCPD marine patrol officers will be on the lookout for swimmers, surfers and boaters in distress, and will issue tickets to unlicensed operators of motorboats and to operators of all boats that are not carrying personal flotation devices. “We could even depth charge a large shark, should the need arise,” Ramius said.

Along with the submarine, SCPD has recently acquired a “whole slew” of military equipment, Ramius revealed. “As we speak, my men are doing various drills and practice engagements, including Free-for-All, Team Deathmatch, Mercenary Team Deathmatch, Headquarters, Capture the Flag, Team Tactical, Kill Confirmed and Search and Destroy scenarios,” he said.

Special report on Sunday evening at 9PM, Sol City News Network, when our reporter is joining the submarines first trial patrol and duties.

Hey, you may or may not remember me (probably not, all things considered) as that one guy that dropped in for a little bit in Chapter 1 and played an agoraphobic Indian lady. Either way, I've gotten shit together in my life and now I'm ready to actually play the game! Hope nobody minds if I donk this down in prep. for Chapter 3!

Name
Matthew Blair Winslow

Age

23
Appearance



Height

5'11" (about 180cm)
Weight

130 or so lbs. (about 59-60kg)
Likes

Cloudy days (the darker the better), cold weather (but not too cold, ideally just about 40F and just enough for him to flaunt his longcoat), savory foods (as long as it's not spicy), knives (he has a collection of nearly 50 pieces that he's very proud of), small furry animals like puppies and kittens (but don't tell anybody).
Dislikes

Overly sweet food (every time he eats dessert he feels the need to brush his teeth ten times over), bright sunlight (he burns really easily), big animals (pretty much anything larger than a great Dane), swimming (he's not very comfortable in the water as a whole), very to-the-point people (they tend to be more resistant to his brand of BS, so they ruin his fun).

Zodiac Sign

Gemini (June 6th)

Special Talent

Matthew is remarkably good at telling stories. While he could use this to a much greater effect than he does (he could probably become a bestselling novelist if he put his mind to it), he finds it much easier and more enjoyable to use that ability to tell wild stories to jerk people around as much as he can by spinning intricate and convincing lies, whether it's to serve a purpose like getting free food or just to have fun. He's...not the most fun to have around at a party, really.

As an outgrowth of this propensity, he's also become rather skilled at faking emotions. He can do killer crocodile tears. Don't believe him for a second.


Profession

Works as a printer at the Star Messenger, hoping to break into a leadership role eventually but probably not realistically going to. He also writes short stories and pawns them off on the internet to make some money here and there.

Bio/Personality

Welcome to Sol City, population: Matthew.

Or at least that's how he sees it.

Matthew is, well. He's not the one that people like very much after they've gotten to know him for a little while, but upon first impression, he's actually not that bad. While not cripplingly shy by any stretch of the imagination, he's just timid enough to be friendly, or at least bearable. Then...then you get to know him better. And oh, what a 'getting-to-know-you' it ends up being. By the time you figure out that he was probably lying to you about half of what he said for no other reason than kicks, you're already probably down a couple bucks for 'subway fare' that he's probably juggling around his hands and laughing to himself as he walks down the sidewalk. Sometimes he won't even ask for money; the work itself is the reward, as they say. He adores the feeling of lying to people and getting away with it, and there probably aren't two people in all of Sol City that he's told the same life story to, if he's ever felt in the mood to do such a thing. But hey, every con artist has a start somewhere, right?

Most people that know of Matthew assume that he had a terrible upbringing to go with his seeming amorality and general assholish-ness. That's just not true. Actually, he had a pretty easy childhood. Born and raised in Sol City to a young British couple, his early life was actually quite cushy. And for the first leg of his life, he was actually a really nice kid. He would regularly come home from elementery and middle school as the teacher's favorite kid in the class. He was a little bit less social than his parents would've liked, but all in all? Everything seemed like it was going fantastic.

And then, as so often the case, high school came around to ruin everything. That's not to say he started doing poorly in school or anything; to the contrary, he was pretty much at the top of his class. But then he took two classes that made his life what it is today: creative writing, and philosophy. He aced them without even trying. He had something of a knack for those two talents; making stories, and arguing well. Arguing obnoxiously well. Twisting peoples' words back around on them became something of an addiction for him, and within that semester he'd begun to develop into what he would become later on in life. The final nail in the coffin came when he received his letter of acceptance from Solaris University (he refuses to use the real name, which he views as vastly pretentious), whereupon he ceased all pretense of being a decent person.

He coasted through college, or at least tried to. In the end, he found that college was a lot harder than he'd given it credit for, and found that he needed a form of stress relief. Luckily for him, he had a whole new public to manipulate at his leisure, and he began to do so with gusto. Most of the people that he'd connected with eventually ducked out on him instead of being associated with the local freshman asshole, but he had a close cadre of friends, just enough so as to not attempt to become a better person through isolation. Eventually he graduated with a major in Creative Writing and a minor in Journalism and set about to making it somewhere in the world. He managed to get a job at the local newspaper and an apartment, and the rest is pretty much current. So what this has essentially all been is a long, roundabout way of saying that there's no real reason for him to be an asshole to people. He just is, because it's what he finds fun.


Matthew's Favorite Song

Chopin's Nocturne in E Minor, Posth. 72. Turns out that Matt is a fan of classical. Who'da guessed?


Unfortunately, I don't watch enough movies or TV to give an actor for my boy.

*Your age: Just cracked into my third decade.
*What part of the world are you from? Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Brotherly love, baby!
*How many years have you been writing/roleplaying: A long time. I mean, that doesn't mean I'm good at it. I've just been doing it for a while.
*How often do you have time to post? As long as I don't drop of the face of the Earth again (and if I do I'll let you know), anywhere from every two days to once a week, depending on workload, motivation, how much (or little) sleep I've been getting, and general inebriation.
*Anything else you want to mention? What you do for a living? How much do you work a week? What do you enjoy doing besides writing? Put as much as you want. Do you ever realize how underappreciated lemons are? I mean yeah, sometimes you'll find people grating lemon zest or using juice as a condiment (and that's not mentioning lemonade), but come on. This is perhaps the most delicious citrus fruit that yet lives. Bunch'a ingrates, I tells ya.

Joy Fisher


Name:
Joy Fisher

Age:
21

Height:
5’1

Weight:
100

Zodiac Sign:
Gemini

Profession:
The coffee pot as best workforce

Likes:



Dislikes:



Special Talent:

Brewing coffee -
Over the past few year she has been working at multiple coffee shops, learned from many masters the way of the coffee. She has grown fond of brewing and serving coffee as job. The expression people give when they taste her coffee still gets her every time.

Anime trivia -
Literally the Wikipedia of the anime, she has watched many shows and her life literally depends on it.

Bio/Personality:

Joy her personality had always been somewhat unusual. She has a standard look of aggression and irritation on her face. Like you would have guessed that is her usual behavior. The first thing you shouldn’t do is ask her if she is annoyed, that will only make her angrier and worse. Despite her tsundere personality she does have a sweet side about her yet she doesn’t show it much too other people. Her cute and cheery personality usually comes about when she does the things she likes like: drinking coffee, anime, cute animals, etc. Joy easily gets provoked or teased and get rather annoyed by it. She is not afraid to hurt someone with the damage she can do. Due to her many part time jobs she is a very hard working person and gets easily annoyed by none hard working people.

Joy never paid attention during classes and was always in the thought of her anime and songs. During the lessons she was frequently caught drawing doodles of cute anime figures while she had her earbuds in. Her lack of effort during school did pay its tolls. She usually had to take remedy classes and even went as far as staying a grade because of bad marks. Luckily it didn’t take rocket science to pass basic high school and so she did.

After Joy had finished high school she was at a loss what to do with her life. She had always been the clueless kid that never knew what her job was gonna be in later life. Every single one of her friends had found a job that perfectly fitted them yet she was left with her simple part time jobs that she had done the last couple of years besides school. Her first job was at the greenhouse where she had take care of the plants. However much she liked it there were better earning jobs that gave double the salary she first earned. Her second and third job were at coffee stands that she quite liked. However the first one closed due to food inspection and the second one ran out of business due to the lack of customers. It was never her fault or the coffees that the stores had to close. They both had excellent coffee and the stores had vast amounts of usual guests. It was truly a shame.

Her new job was at the Coffee Pot which was a bit unlike her usual working place. She had to smile and act happy as far as she learned already. She is still in training to serve, make food and tend the bar but at least she was good at cleaning and making coffee which did make her reputation somewhat good for her employer. Now her trial has ended she can serve the customers at least, she has still a lot to learn yet she tries her best.

Until just recently she had moved out of house to live on her own, she found a nice small apartment where she could settle down for not too much. The only problem was her furniture. There was none, she only has a bed right now and a couch. Her clothes are still stacked in boxes. Well she had somewhere to live at least.

Theme



Me

Tell us about yourself:
Hello, my real name is Joy just like my character. I wanted to make a character that would represent me and what is better than to use your own name for that.
*Your age: 20
*What part of the world are you from? I'm from the Netherlands.
*How many years have you been writing/role-playing: As long as I have been on this site.
*How often do you have time to post? Can stretch it to 7 times a week but will leave it at 3 if possible.
*Anything else you want to mention? What you do for a living? How much do you work a week? What do you enjoy doing besides writing? Put as much as you want. I'm still a student on university which takes up about 40 hours a week if it is not busy. I really like coffee and I'm a big fan of all anime. I can say mostly good stuff about all and everything so if you want to talk to me about it I'm all ears. I am mentally going through some difficulties by the name of depression so please be aware I can easily break down. I do try to keep it cheerful though :)
