I promise you, you're beautiful.

@silvermist1116 If I can pry myself away from Dragon Age, I'll have to watch it. Any streaming site you'd recommend? I can't decide either, as either role would be okay with me. If I did play the male, I'd probably go for the "Jeremy" / happy-go-lucky type. What about you? Also, did you have any writing samples (it's okay if you don't) just wondering, since you're new and haven't had a chance to dive into any IC Threads yet.

Lurker's List of Fandom's to Do :3 (List inside, some maybe M.)

@Lurkerlurks I wouldn't mind hearing it, though I am more partial to R:I than R:2/R:X.

Which gender do you tend to play or does it depend? I just ask since it seems based on your post history, you tend to play females and I'm looking for someone who can play both genders. I'd also prefer all canon characters unless we may work with .Hack, then I could go either way.

I'd be interested in (order of most inclined) : Yu Yu Hakusho (well, look at my username), Rurouni Kenshin, .Hack, Inuyasha, Naruto and Samurai Champloo.

I promise you, you're beautiful.

@silvermist1116 I know there is a remade Japanese version, I may give it a watch just out of curiosity about any differences though I think one of them may have a cameo in the Japanese version. That would be nice to see.

But anyway, which role were you hoping to play and any changes you'd like to make?

Dragon Age

I do remember Cullen from Origins. And the way he speaks of Kirkwall makes me really excited to start DA2. I'll get there eventually...but DAI has been such a freakin' treat. Though how can I got back to my crapped PC graphics after seeing DAI on my new PS4 is beyond me...*sobs* But Sten was interesting and now we've got Iron Bull, not easy on the eyes but...he is a fun guy to talk to and learn more from. Though Blackwall reminds me of Duncan and Alistair and so the urge to romance him is strong, and then it seems every fan loves Solas but he can be kind of a stick in the mud around certain topics...

But thanks for the good luck. I had 1-2 going on here a while back but that well has dried up it seems. I just see so many beautiful settings with colorful people and have the desire to explore it further. Whatever the fourth installment is, I'll be surely buying it.

I promise you, you're beautiful.

@silvermist1116 My friend used to be really into k-dramas and recommended it to me one night I was bored. I'm glad she did, it was really sweet and something highly entertaining which I wish most shows were these days. But anyway, shall we talk here or via PM? Though as a heads up, I'm not that reliable with PM exchanges.

@Faded Memory As above, my friend introduced me to k-drama but thanks to her, I've developed a closet crush on Jang Keun-suk and Lee Hong-gi. There are some other new dramas on Netflix I may check out but I'll have to add Sungkyunkwan Scandal to my list for this summer because who doesn't like feeling feels? I think I tried watching Secret Garden but found it a little too weird to get very far.

Back during my spring quarter, I was the same way. It was awful. I had zero time for personal writing or roleplaying so I can understanding needing to set limits and pace yourself with commitments. I only have two more hellish quarters left and then I'm off to Japan (fingers crossed). But my point is, you're more than welcome to drop me a line should you feel up to doing this. There's a certain...charm about k-dramas that I can find comfort in. And though it's a Japanese drama, Atelier was a fun show to watch, some of the twists I didn't see coming.

Dragon Age

Bump, craving a plot like DA:I or DA:O as I'm playing through them now that school is out.

I promise you, you're beautiful.

Genkai's Notes:

This is inspired by a Korean Drama called You're Beautiful. It was once streaming on Netflix but I don't think it is any longer. This is merely based on the premise, the actual roleplay itself will differ so do not feel intimidated, concerned or uncomfortable if you have not seen the series. Of course I enjoyed it (it's a drama, there are some flaws) so I'd recommend it if you're bored and have nothing to watch, you can probably find it through our Lord and Savior, Google.

Now because this is inspired by a Korean Drama, I am picturing our characters as Korean, however if you want us to take it to Japan or London, I'd be fine with that. America? You may have to sell me. Given the political shit show, I want very little to do with my country at the moment. Plus, I love other cultures and think it would be fun to explore that with someone. Again, if you're uncertain about something, Google is our friend. I'm going to be Googling as needed too, oh my that may sound naughty!

Lastly, I am looking for commitment. Posts don't need to come every day but maybe every few days to keep the pace, progress and motivation flowing. It's summer so I do think people have more free time but every situation is different. I only have two roleplays going on so I have some free time, I also have one or two off-site but again, this is something I've been wanting to do for the past month and only now have I gotten time to fully articulate this idea. I am seeking advanced writers, people who can play both genders and develop relationships and plots.

Genkai's Final Warnings:

This will involve cross-dressing but the romance is strictly heterosexual.

Of course there is fun in characters having to question their feelings/sexuality if unaware someone they like is cross-dressing.

If you're not into smut, we probably won't work out. Smut should be tasteful and properly timed. I don't see sex happening until after a long while of characters getting to know each other. Still, skipping it seems a little anticlimactic.

This roleplay is meant to be playful, fun, dramatic, suspenseful, romantic.

I want to encourage zany side plots and complicated interpersonal relationships, just because this is slice of life, doesn't mean it has to be stuffy and dull. Slice of life gets a bad reputation but I find it very endearing.

While I am happy to play either role below, if you do approach me with an inability to carry your weight and play male roles as well, I will not write with you. Honestly, it's so grating to see people refuse to write outside the box and try their opposite gender.

The group band name can be decided between us, I left it open as to which archetype the main male is, so that can be decided between us as well. Also, the ages will be in their mid to late 20s.

Also feel free to pick whichever archetype you'd like, I left it open ended. But this roleplay is meant to carry different plots and conflicts and twists, I'm hoping we can have a balance that pleases us both. Feel free to tweak or toss character or background ideas too.

His whole life has been filled with lavish trips around the world, private singing lessons, unforgettable meals at the most exclusive of restaurants. And yet...life has not been fulfilling for him. He was left at the hospital he was born at and put up for adoption. A wealthy couple took him home and no one has been able to track his birth mother or origins. Though he's made great strides in the music world and is part of a very very popular pop group, he wanted to become famous in order to get the attention of his birth family in hopes of reconnecting and finding a piece of him that's always been missing.

The pop group is made up of three males. One is hyper and happy, always willing to stop and cheer up fans. Another is very smart and sweet, the best of both worlds in terms of edge and softness. And the final member is a typical cool guy, often serious and a loner but still very close and protective of his fellow band members. The group goes on tours, goes on talk shows and game shows, photoshoots, commercials and rehearsals. Their lives are busy and they all live together in a swanky house that's close to their studio. Fans can often be seen crowding around either venue, hoping to see or even touch one of their handsome idols. But the manager has decided to bring in a fresh face, much to the apprehension of the other three boys who have know each other for well over a year.

Her whole life has been ordinary but pleasant enough. She grew up as an only child, befriending many animals and neighbors in her small town. While she graduated university with a good degree, she lacks the confidence to move to a big city and start the next chapter of her life, so she's confined herself to her hometown, preferring to tend to her elderly parents, as she's all they have. But when a man comes knocking at her door, saying she has a twin brother who looks exactly like her, who needs her help. As it turns out, her mother did give birth two twins but had to give him up for adoption due to financial reasons. To her knowledge, the twin went abroad and calls on the holidays. The girl is shocked but thrilled to know she has a brother.

The dilemma arises when the pop band's newest member falls ill and cannot join the group yet. But the manager devises a plan to pull in his twin sister to take his place until things are straightened out. The band is on track to introduce its newest member and cannot delay any further. Without telling the other three members, the manager helps the girl disguise herself as her long lost brother in order to properly sell the press conference. Upon moving into her new home, thing grow complicated as she gets close to each member and begins to have a special connection with one who is secretly trying to find his own family. She can relate and soon feelings blossom. Will someone find out about her? Will his birth family finally reveal themselves or is he too late to meet them? What other secrets are being hidden? Will the pop band be able to endure the multitude of paparazzi and rumors?
