“Mother, was expecting you an hour ago. Unless the Richards got into another argument?” Her tone was nonchalant, almost distracted as her light eyes remained narrowed in concentration.

“Natalia, have you made it to Salem?” Her mother ignored her last jab, remaining firm and on topic.

Pale lips quirked up.

“Made it yesterday morning, on schedule. The house is lovely, by the way.”

Her mother’s tone was noticeably more clipped. “And am I correct in assuming that you haven’t contacted Corwin yet?”

A pause.

“No, I haven’t spoken to Chris yet.” Natalia responded firmly, eyes narrowing even more as her brush carefully moved along the canvas.

Her mother let out an exhausted sigh. And if it was a younger Natalia, perhaps she would’ve asked what was wrong or would’ve at least stopped testing the woman. But, that’s not really her style these days.

“You’re painting, aren’t you?”

“It calms me.” Natalie stated simply, pushing away from the painting to look at it from a farther distance, head tilting a little in contemplation.

“Just get started.” Her mother retorted sharply, hanging up without a goodbye.

“Love you too.” Natalia muttered, only half paying attention, removing her phone from her ear as she studied her painting.

A small sigh escaping her, pale blue eyes drifted closed as Natalia slowly rolled her shoulders, stretching in place after being hunched over for nearly an hour. Finally looking at her phone, she took only a brief glance at the time before finally nodding to herself.

Guess it’s time, huh?

Long fingers quickly and deftly un-buttoned the oversized paint-splatter shirt she was wearing, revealing a surprisingly clean and normal outfit underneath. Carefully folding up the shirt, she set it down on her stool before leaving the room, with only a quick glance around the room as she did so.

Silently closing the door, she proceeded to hum under her breath as she wandered around her small one-story house, tidying up a little before eventually grabbing her purse from it’s place near the door, throwing it over her arm as she looked around once more.

Every room in her house was done deliberately, designed to be warm and inviting.

Nodding once, she slipped out of the front door, leaving quietly, like with everything.

I N T E R L U D E


“Come on kid, you can do better than that.”

A younger Natalia was bent over, hands on her knees as she tried to catch her breath. A somewhat stern looking man with crossed arms stared down at her, eyebrow raised expectantly.

After a moment, Natalia looked up at him with darkened eyes, glaring all the while. Seeing this, the older man nodded, seemingly pleased.

“There we go. Actual emotion. Real emotion. None of that bullshit you use on your folks and the rest of the world.”

Natalia stood up straight, body tense as he took a few steps closer, staring down at her while she glared up at him. Lips curling up into a smirk, he tugged on her ponytail once, Natalia not flinching away, staring him down.

Chuckling, he bent down, hands on his knees in a mockery of her earlier position. Being a very tall man, this put them eye to eye.

“That. That right there. That spark. That fire inside you. I can see it. You’re not some little kid living off of mommy and daddy’s money, you’re in the game. Have you gone on your first hunt yet? Have you killed one?”

Her eyes narrowed a little and he hummed in surprise.

“You have killed one? Or...” He trailed off, a brief look of realization flashing on his face before he stood up straight and took a few steps back, eyeing her closer now. Natalia raised an eyebrow, not even pretending anymore, head tilting.

“Oh, you haven’t just killed one.” He deduced, crossing his large arms, an unreadable expression on his face. “You know what it feels like to have blood on your hands alright. But, you’ve done more than that. You cut the son of a bitch open, didn’t you? Cut him open to see what made him tick?”

Natalia stared back expressionless, face having smoothed out as he went on. But, the look in her eye silently asked him, ‘And what are you gonna do about that?’

Looking at her in a different light, the man nodded, scratching at his stubble, looking away for a moment.

It was silent for a few moments.

“Alright, let’s go again.”

Natalia’s blank expression broke a bit, genuine surprise appearing.

“You aren’t gonna tell them?”

He chuckled again, shaking his head. “No point. I know your folks, have known them for years. Killing is one thing, but you? You’re something else. Something they aren’t ready to deal with. And when they do find out... well, I don’t think they’ll take it so well.” As he spoke, Natalia stared at him with a glint in her eyes, something like... respect.

Natalia didn’t say ‘Thank you’ and she never would. She simply bobbed her head in thanks, clenching and unclenching her fists.

Moment over, Christopher Corwin straightened, arms by his side as he hardened once more.

“Now, let’s go again. And don’t do that shit you do for your parents. It may look good for them but I know you can do better. Show me.”

Eyebrow arching at the challenge, Natalia’s lips quirked up into a smirk, eyes darkening in delight. They both moved into position, the distance between them seeming not so far.

“Now!”


Blinking quickly to snap herself out of her own memories, Natalia glanced around the familiar environment, having been walking in the right direction. Shaking her head to remind herself to focus, Natalia kept walking, her surroundings become more and more memorable as she did so.

And her good memory paid off as she arrived at a nice little house. Then again, I’m rather biased, she thought dryly, lips quirking up a tiny amount.

As she approached, she noticed a girl opening the garage. Head tilting, she briefly toyed with the idea of this being June. But, it was gone before it even partially formed. Is this...?

She’d seen Mary once the last time she was Christopher all those years ago. A small little thing with big eyes, ‘Little Mary’ Natalia would call her, just to see her puff up at the name. Natalia had never really liked kids but had always found her to be pretty decent apart from the whining she used to do. Natalia imagined the girl had grown out of that. Some idle curiosity at seeing the girl again caused her to open her mouth, speaking up to be heard.

“Little Mary?”
I actually finished my character sheet and have been contemplating posting it here but I figured 'Why not?'. That way, if any of you wanna collab on something then we can set that up. AND so that you guys can have kind of see how I managed to do this sheet, haha.

Appearance Details
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Katherine is a decent height at 5’6, with a generally slim build but with a lean towards curvy. She has a more tan to darker skin tone with deep brown eyes and dark brown hair. Nice but overall soft bone structure that manages to not make her look childish with her fuller cheeks and lips.

Character Synopsis
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Katherine is really just your... somewhat average woman... depending on your view of average. Born and raised in India, her family and she ended up coming to the US when she was 6 so a good chunk of her years were spent in the US of A. But, when her family arrived, they settled down in the big apple, with dreams of finding good work and having better educational opportunities for Katherine and her 3 other siblings.

But, instead of staying medicine like her parents expected, she instead decided to study photography. And although her family was worried and rather confused, Katherine remained firm. She already knew what she wanted to do with her life, even at 18. So, she studied her ass off, not caring much for the college party scene, making a couple of friends but staying away from the dating scene. She’d heard stories of the college dating life and wanted no part of it.

While in school, she created her blog: Kat Travels. There, she slowly updated the blog whenever she did have the time to travel to new cities, or even new countries once she graduated. She uploaded her photography and wrote about the places she’s gone to and the things she’s experienced. As soon as she graduated, she was just, gone. She knew she would never be able to become a doctor like her parents wanted. She could never imagine staying in one place. There’s so much to see!

And when she was given the chance to travel with her best friend to Louisiana, Katherine was completely in. A new place to tick off the map so... why not? And with her best friend by her side? What’s the worst that can happen?

Personality
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Katherine is a very curious soul. From having dedicated her entire life, basically, to traveling the world and experiencing all kinds of culture, she’s mostly given up on the idea of settling down anytime soon. She sees the world as this very beautiful and fascinating place with so many secrets just waiting to be discovered! Of course, she is not so naive as to think that everything in the world is sunshine and rainbows, she can definitely see the darkness that exists. But, she finds the darkness to be beautiful as well.

Despite her somewhat unique lifestyle, she has still managed to hold onto friends, showing that she isn’t some antisocial person who has no interest in people and prefers the planet or something. She is actually very charismatic and loves hearing about another person’s life. They’ve experienced their own adventures, adventures she’ll never get to have. Stories they have, she’ll never be able to tell. What is more fascinating than that?

She’s brave and rather confident, always willing to speak her mind and ask questions if she feels it necessary. After all, if you’re traveling around to new areas and places you’ve never seen before, you need to at least know how to put on a facade of confidence at least. It’ll get you far. Overall, Katherine is a rather excitable woman with a curious soul and a free spirit, always bored with the idea of normality and routine. She’s always on the search for something new and interesting to take photos of and tell her following about. And I think she’s gonna have a mighty interesting time, that’s for sure.

Hello my lovelies and welcome to my request thread. I'll try to keep this short and sweet to save both of us time and energy. SO, to get rules out of the way... I don't really have any. I'm cool with mature roleplays and non-mature stuff. Uh... don't be a jerk and let me know if you have to leave for any extended period of time? Pretty basic stuff, I think.

Ahem, I have more specifics in my introduction and I do not feel like re-typing all that so... here's a cheeky link to it!

roleplayerguild.com/posts/4242296

AND, if you have any plots you wish to do, please let me know and I'll give you my thoughts!



I don't mind any sort of original roleplay. Just toss me a message or respond here and we can discuss something. Sound good? Sweet! Now, onto the big one. Fandoms. I have a lot of them. And I can't even think of all of them at this moment so this thread will be updating quite a lot, I'm sure. I also do any sort of tabletop RPG stuff, I've been dying to try it!

Also, in regards to mature content, I am perfectly okay with it. In fact, I even prefer it! I think it adds realism to it so don't worry!

WARNING: I CAN NOT PLAY CANON CHARACTERS FOR THE LIFE OF ME! BUT, I MAY TRY IF IT'S THE RIGHT CHARACTER.

List of my Characters! Just in case you see any you wanna do something with! I would love to dust off some of these babies and write them again!

There, that wasn't so bad, eh? I think I did pretty great.
Peeks in with curiosity and interest.
@Lord Wraith,

Also, if something on the sheet is labeled 'TBD', do we leave that blank as it means that we'll discover these things during the IC? Or do we fill it out now? (I'm somehow almost done with this. I have no idea how.)
@Lord Wraith
When we finish our character sheets (Not saying I'm finished, oh no. Your girl is still squinting at it a little but I'm getting somewhere.), do we put them here? Or do we add them to the OOC when it's up for you to look over?
