Romance in Roleplays: Yes or No?

Romance can be absolutely essential. It displays very strong feeling between two constructs which i know can lead to some of the best roleplaying I've ever seen. But i feel it's also important to keep things tasteful. There are young people present who may not be mature enough to deal with certain information in a responsible manner. Aside from that, romance between two characters is fine as long as it doesn't make the rest of the group feel embarrassed and/or feeling excluded (double entendre not intended ). This is a guild for creative writing and to some extent a way of relieve pent up emotions and frustration, but it is not Pornhub.

When do you consider an RPG to be "Dead"?

Depends on the people you roleplay with. I have the honour of calling some people friends on this forum, and one of the requisites is being a 'Roleplay Brick'. Someone who will never give up on a RP entirely, no matter how long and drawn out it gets. I believe it's the GM's decision as to when it is finally laid to rest or whether it's on a break or what. My advice to anyone wanting to build a long lasting roleplay is to build long lasting relationships with people who like the same things as you. A science fiction roleplay of mine has been going for just under three years, through three iterations and Guildfall, because of rock solid support from some wonderful people.

I know! I don't often get a chance to write this way, i'm enjoying it too ;) Quite reluctant to let it turn into 'oh god zombies' hehe.

American Express, working in IT haha. Totally blagging my entire career.
I think our RP is going pretty swimmingly so far, wouldn't you agree?

I love it when a roleplay as seasoned as this still garners interest from new people.

Freyr gazed absently out of the plate glass window as the Elevator sped up to the twenty seventh floor. It granted a view of the University, the prison, the neighbourhoods of south Atlanta. Further beyond that was the sea and beyond that, the Caribbean. Freyr wished she was on the beach right now. Sell four houses a week like father had done and she’d be able to take trips to the bahamas every so often. He’d been right in the middle of mentoring Freyr about the subtle nuances of realty when he’d died of congestive heart failure. Freyr remembered the funeral, with all the crying and sobbed speech making, like it was yesterday. The door pinged open and she turned around into the plush carpeted corridor which led to their flat. A huge bay window on her right extended her view of Georgia as she walked. Flat 2704. Slotting her key into the lock she pushed her way in and inspected it as she always did.

The flat was airy and cool, the fans were working overtime. A jug from the fridge had found it’s way out onto the kitchen island and was now creating a little puddle on the polished granite. She walked a little way in and dropped her bag unceremoniously on the floor, her mouth opened to call Indy but just as she did so his hands hooked around her waist and her call turned into a little sigh/moan. Shimmying round so that they were facing, Freyr batted her eyelids at the tweed suit she hated before looking up at Indy and putting her lips fully and quite satisfyingly against his, arms around his neck. “Of course i did, and i know you missed me.” She said teasingly, wiggling out of his grasp and pouring herself a glass of water. “You’re back early, how was your new work?” She asked, heading over to the shower room as she said that. Noise travelled ridiculously far and they often made a joke of having conversations while in opposite sides of the flat.

Closing the door but not locking it, Freyr quickly stripped down and hopped in the shower, turning the water on full and freezing cold. Another of the supposedly 'strange' things about her daily routine. Hot water in the morning, cold water after work. It applied to everything: drinking water, shower water. You name it. Hot water kept her buzzing whereas cold water relaxed and unwound her. It was certainly hot enough outside to warrant it, sweat had gathered on her brow and under her arms.
