Bio
Hello! I'm Jones! and if you stumbled upon my page, I must have struck your interest!
I like to think that I'm a storyteller. I joined this site to create characters, and worlds I can put myself in. Every post I make will be to the best of my ability, and I hope anyone who stumbles upon my name can see that :D
Just a few things about me if you couldn't tell already by just glancing at my profile haha:
-I LOVE anything Captain America or Marvel related
-I have been RP'ing for over ten years now so I got some experience
- I do my best to try and have a wide range of RP genres
-I'm mostly do 1X1's and Casual/advanced RP's
-I'm a 20 something year old male high school teacher living in the Pacific North West of the US!
- I love meeting new RP'ers and seeing what we can create together!
- I'm a sucker for romance <3
Like i said previously, I’m a high school teacher, so there are specific times of the year where I get bombarded with things so I might not be on for a couple days, and if that's the case I'm trying to let anyone know so they aren't left wondering.
But like I said I love it when people contact me and ask if I want to RP with them, or have an idea and want my skills, and odds are I love the same thing, so If anyone wants to collab just shoot me a PM!
Subjects I love to RP
-Anything Marvel Related, Especially Cap!
-The Percy Jackson Series
-The Witcher
-Mass Effect
-Avatar the Last Airbender
-Anything Sci-Fi
-Harry Potter
- 1X1 Romances
- fantasy
-Modern day life
-Star Wars
-Fairy Tail
Those are pretty much my go to's, but I'm willing to hear out any idea and think about it!
Here's an example of my writing to give you a sense of my "skill" I guess... I keep trying to get better and better so bear with me!
Benjamin West woke up to a loud alarm, and the sun shining through the window and into his eyes. groaned a little as he hit the snooze button, and fell back down onto his pillow. It was an almost perfect plan, until he heard running down the hall and a small voice. "Daddy! Dad wake up!" Ben's daughter Jamie knocked on his door, and continued down the hall to wake her brother up too.
Ben got out of the bed, running a hand through his messy brown hair before drawing the curtains to view the beautiful Virginia forest. He walked across to the room to a nightstand with a picture of a beautiful woman holding a small boy, with the brightest smile in the world. "Buongiorno mio amore" He muttered, touching the picture lightly before walking into the bathroom, getting ready for the day.
Minutes later he came down the stairs dressed in a dark blue sweater, some worn jeans and sneakers. He didn't have a traditional job in the morning, but he did have the all-time job of being a dad. He made his way into the kitchen, a traditional style that Maria helped remodel. Jamie was sitting at the island, finishing some of her homework. Ben rubbed his hand on her head, and walked to the kitchen. "What will it be, Little One? Pancakes? Cereal, eggs?" He asked, turning on the stove.
"Just cereal..." Jamie replied, hard at work. "Just cereal, you got it... Hey, is Marco up? Marco!" Ben yelled, walking to the pantry to receive some cereal. "Daddy, you're still going to help today, right?" Jamie asked. "Yeah, yeah... wait, help with what?" He asked, handing his daughter a bowl and pouring milk in.
"The school fair is today, and you promised to help, remember?" He had been going through so much recently with the legal papers and Marco acting up in school, that he had forgotten all about the fair! "Yeah, I remember sweetheart... I'll be there. Marco! Hurry up, don't make me come up there!"
A couple seconds later Ben's oldest, Marco walked down, not saying a word, only grabbing a bagel from the kitchen counter. "You get your work done, Big Guy? I'm not going to get a note to sign tonight for bad behavior?" Ben asked, looking over at him as he helped Jamie put things in her backpack. Marco shook his head. "Can we go now? We're going to be late."
"Well maybe if someone came down on time we shouldn't be. Come on sweetheart. Everyone in the car! You all got your lunches, right?"
----
The car rides to school were not the most heartfelt and happiest. It was debating on what to listen to on the radio, mixed with passive aggressive remarks from Marco, to Ben giving a speech on how he needs to help out and grow up. When they parked in front of the school, Marco immediately left without saying a word. "Yeah, Love you too!" Ben yelled after him, getting out of the car to help Jamie out. "Alright Little one, when does your fair start?"
"Five o'clock. But volunteers need to be there an hour early to set things up."
"Four o'clock. Got it. And... what did you sign me up to do, exactly?"
"I don't know, the school figures that out, I just put you on the list!"
"Alright, mio amore, I'll be there. Have a good day, I love you." He gave her a kiss on the forehead before letting her go off to her class. He stood next to his car, watching her meet up with her friends. She didn't seem as embarrassed of him as Marco was, it was probably because she was letting him cope with this all. She was a smart girl, too smart if you asked him.
He looked next to him to see a couple of parents (especially mothers) staring over at him. He was famous in a sense, he made a lot of interviews and did a lot of crazy things on his old show that many people would see him as a perfect human being... But he didn't feel that at all. He gave an awkward smile and wave to the crowd, getting into the car before any of them could dive into small talk. He didn't hate talking to people, it was just... difficult. Especially right now.
He would probably do what he did every day. He would call some buddies he had that were still talking about a new season for his show (and politely turn them down), clean the house, and then apparently help at this school fair. It was a change of pace from what he used to do, but this was still just as challenging.
If you have any questions about my RP's, or future ones just shoot me a PM!
All of these people are amazing writers and friends and if you happen to RP with them consider yourself lucky! XD
and for a final note: THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A HOBBY, NOT A CHORE! I never want to put pressure on you, or myself and make any RP feel like you NEED to post, or have to force yourself to write. This is supposed to be fun, and I'll do anything to make sure it feels that way :)
Raymond woke up to the sound of first year boys trying to find out who dropped the stink pellet in their dorm room. Raymond was startled at first, but then remembered where he was, and smiled. Running a hand through his messy brown hair, he got up, stretched, then walked over to Edgar in his bed and pushed him a bit. "Rise and shine, boys!" He said to all of them. The five people in his dorm were Edgar, Trevor McAllan, Grant Hampton, and Peter Wilkes. Trevor was a beater for the Quidditch team. He was a large, brown haired kid who had a soft side once you get to know him. Grant was the the prank guy (when Raymond told him about the stink pellet, he snickered loudly.) and then Peter was a very nice and brave kid, but had a very hard time with anything but potions.
"Man, Ray. Quidditch and now Dueling? Big Bad Chase here to run the school!" Edgar said, searching his trunks for a pair of clean dress pants. "Nah, I think that Slytherin girl already has that title. Only a fourth year."
"Yeah, i heard of her... Not one bad thing... that's kinda strange, isn't it? A Slytherin who happens to be the perfect student? I mean, don't get me wrong, Jared and his friends are very good gents, but they can be a bit nasty." Trevor said, looking in a mirror to put on his tie. He was talking about some good Slytherin friends they had, nothing but friendly to us, and saved each other a couple times in their school life, but when it comes to fresh meat, they like to make their lives a living hell.. So they heard. If they ever caught them Raymond might have to put them in place.
"It doesn't matter. It's a new year, everyone's behaving well, so there's no need for this kind of rubbish talk!" Edgar said, his neat black hair in place. Raymond nodded, he put a bit of gel in his hair to make it stand up a bit. Still messy as ever, but it looked very well for him. He wore his sweater, his tie neat and tidy, but now wearing his Gryffindor robes.
He made his way down the stairs, walking up to the bulletin board. he spent a few minutes to write down a small advertisement for the Dueling club.
Love Defense Against the Dark Arts?
Want to use your knowledge in friendly, competitive battles?
Years 2 and over, join the Gryffindor Dueling Club!
First session tonight at 6.
It wasn't much, but he figured that he would do better at explaining when he was actually there. He was extremely excited to start it... but first, breakfast, where their schedules will be waiting for them. The schedules all worked the same way. Everyone in their year goes to the same core classes, then to their electives. After that will be free time before dinner.
Raymond went through the portrait hole, his wand in his pocket, his mind going through all the spells he's learned to fight against the dark arts. He made it down to the large dining hall, and towards his table. The ceiling was a light gray, with fog moving around. The tables were full of delicious looking breakfast items. Eggs, bacon, waffles, jugs of juices. There was never a bad meal at Hogwarts.
He sat down, putting toast and eggs on his plate, waiting for his schedule to arrive and Olly so he can receive his mail. Also a tradition at Hogwarts.
Raymond shook his head. "I think you don't give yourself the credit you deserve. You're a brilliant witch." (This would be the only place where he could say that and not be slapped). Although Willow was shy, she was incredibly smart, and knew her spells. "You got nothing to be sorry for, and like I said before, Gryffindor's look out for each other, so that means you're definitely worth it." As Sam walked up and kissed Raymond he smiled, a shock of electricity moving through his skin. When asking about the password he laughed and shrugged. "I guess the ran out of the good ones." He said with another laugh. He yawned a bit, looking around and seeing everyone starting to head to bed.
"Looks like we should get some shut eye... We start our classes tomorrow, and you know Professor Weasley will be upset if we are late." Raymond said, his eyelids feeling heavy after realizing how exhausting of a day its been. He took Samantha's hand and kissed it lightly. "Goodnight, love." He said with a grin and wink.
Turning to Willow he gave a friendly smile. "Goodnight, Willow. I'll see both of you bright and early!" And with that, Raymond made his way to the boy's dorm. There was a door that read "Fifth Years" and Raymond entered. Inside were four post beds, each with trunks at the foot. Raymond's owl, Olly, was in his cage on a window sill, giving a screech as he saw him. "Hey buddy." He said quietly, not wanting to wake everyone who had passed out. He got dressed in to scarlet and gold pajamas, and clmbed in to the incredibly comfortable and cozy bed. It wasn't hard for him to fall asleep
---------------------------------------End of Day 1--------------------------------------
-AcE- said
In her excitement, Willow tripped while getting up, almost falling to the floor. That caused an outbreak of snickers, which she ignored and hurried to catch up with the fellow Gryffindors. She followed Professor Weasley to the common room, smiling at some of the moving portraits on the way. Enthusiastically, most waved back and beamed. As the staircase moved, Willow saw out of the corner of her eye some first years freaking out. She laughed to herself, remembering when she first felt the staircase move. She almost fell off!"This year's password: Lemoncake." Professor Weasley announced as the portrait swung open and students began flooding inside. Willow stayed slightly behind, biting her lip in thought as she repeated the word to herself.In her thoughts she accidentally bumped into someone. Looking up, she recognized it to be one of her classmates um...Raymond! She blushed, looking down at her shoes, "S-sorry...."
It was like coming back to home. Students already filled the chairs, some pulling out wizarding cards and starting to trade, others were posting news on the bulletin board. Raymond was then run in to. He moved a bit, and turned to see Willow apologizing. He gave a smile. "It's alright, no harm done..." He then paused for a second. "Look... I'm sorry for what happened back in the train. I just kinda invited myself in to the compartment when there was obviously too many people." He really did feel bad about doing something like that. "I guess the excitement from coming back, and seeing everyone, made me a bit oblivious. If you need anything, or if anyone's bugging you, Gryffindor's got your back. We'll put them in their place." He gave an assuring smile.
A prefect walked in, yelling at first years to stop jumping on the chairs, and telling everyone that if they needed anything, just them him know. He then looked towards the door to see Sam. Even after years of being with her, a part of his courage left him, meaning he still was very much attracted to the brown haired Gryffindor. He waved her over to join Willow and him.
Snape was an expert in potion making and an excellent duelist. Just because they have a main trait doesn't mean its the only one they're known for haha. Potion making would also make you skilled on what herbs and parts of a creature you can use to help with healing yourself, or warding off certain creatures, or damaging an enemy, So it really isn't bad if you are an expert in potion making hahaha
The students were enjoying their feast, Raymond kept getting congratulations from students from all houses, he thanked them, giving a smile. He wondered how it would be to teach people technique on Dueling... their spells would be learned in classes, but it'll be his duty to help his fellow students learn the art of dueling... It was a challenge, but nothing a Chase couldn't do! When all the students couldn't eat any more, the headmaster got up one more time.
"All students, follow your Head of House to your dorm rooms, where they will tell you your passwords and tricks in to said house." Blevins opened his arms, and nodded. "Dismissed."
Raymond got up, excited to get back in to the old dorm room to just relax before their teachings began. Ray moved out of the way for their Head of House, Hermione Granger. A living legend in the wizarding world.
Hermione Granger
Hermione walked to the large doors in front of Gryffindor's table. "Follow me, keep up!!" She yelled loudly for everyone to hear, and with a turn, she walked out the doors, with her students walked behind. They entered the Great Hall, and then instead of going towards the hallway for the dungeons, she went to the Grand Staircase. "Watch your step, this way." She said as she climbed on to the stairs, then stopped as the whole thing started turning. The first years went crazy. After waiting and walking up a few more flights, they made it to an archway where a portrait blocked. "Why, hello Mrs. Weasley! Password?" She asked as she walked in to her frame with a smile. She turned to the students. "This year's password: Lemoncake." And with that the portrait opened to reveal a doorway. She climbed inside in to a very warm looking room.
Red drapes and fluffy red chairs, a large fireplace, and windows.It also had a bulletin board on a wall, with a few tables as well. There were two staircases on either side of the room. "Ladies bedrooms are on the left, gentlemen on the right. All your belongings are in your dorm rooms, as well as pets. If you have any questions about Gryffindor, or Hogwarts, please let me know."Cyril Voss
As the headmaster ended the feast, Cyril felt a little more relaxed. He enjoyed the food, but the socializing really wasn't his thing... He got up as the other Heads did, walking to his table, and telling his students to follow him. They walked across the great hall and to a door that lead to a hallway of classrooms. Then they hit another door, where a spiral staircase went down. He walked down, his students still behind him. "My classroom is right here. If you ever need anything, I'll most likely be inside." He stated. They eventually reached a stone wall, the first years looking rather confused. "The password this year is 'venom drop'" And with that the wall gave in to the passage way of the Slytherin common room. It had green lights and fires all over, with obsidian black seats and cushions. The fire was low in the fire pit, and small windows helped illuminate the room. Rachel Blake
"Alright, Hufflepuffs, follow me!" Rachel Blake cheered happily with a smile. They took a direct right when entering the hall, to a smaller doorway that lead down below. "Right here is the kitchen!" Rachel said, pointing to the large portrait of a bowl of fruits. " Aaaaand heeeerrreeee..." She stood next to a couple of barrels. "is our House Room!" The first years looked confused, but Rachel gave a wink. "The secret, is to pat the barrels like a drum in the beat, Hel-ga huff-le-puff." She said as she hit the barrels, a door revealed to the coziest of the House common rooms. It was very warm feeling, and circular, with a nice warm fire with yellow curtains and chairs and things of that nature. Just being in here made Rachel a little more tired.Elizabeth Dawn
As the other heads got up, Elizabeth did as well. She inspected her students with a hard stare, but it wasn't supposed to be aggressive or intimidating, it was just the way she was. She was always looking for strategy or a tactic, or just to learn more about a person or place. She was a true Ravenclaw. "Everyone, if you would please follow me." She said. The students went far west across the castle until reaching a rather tall tower. Going up the spiral staircase they were greeted by a silver raven knocker on the wall. "As Ravenclaws, the only way in is to answer a riddle..." She turned to the raven, who moved and tilted its head. "Which came first, the Phoenix, or the flame?" The object asked. "A circle has no beginning." Elizabeth answered. And with that, the wall opened to a circular room made of marble, and royal blue furniture, with a globe in the center. The fireplace was large, the seats were soft, and staircases lead to the girls and boy's dorms.

"Can we go now? We're going to be late."<br><br>"Well maybe if someone came down on time we shouldn't be. Come on sweetheart. Everyone in the car! You all got your lunches, right?" <br><br>----<br><br>The car rides to school were not the most heartfelt and happiest. It was debating on what to listen to on the radio, mixed with passive aggressive remarks from Marco, to Ben giving a speech on how he needs to help out and grow up. When they parked in front of the school, Marco immediately left without saying a word. "Yeah, Love you too!" Ben yelled after him, getting out of the car to help Jamie out. "Alright Little one, when does your fair start?"<br><br>"Five o'clock. But volunteers need to be there an hour early to set things up."<br><br>"Four o'clock. Got it. And... what did you sign me up to do, exactly?"<br><br>"I don't know, the school figures that out, I just put you on the list!"<br><br>"Alright, mio amore, I'll be there. Have a good day, I love you." He gave her a kiss on the forehead before letting her go off to her class. He stood next to his car, watching her meet up with her friends. She didn't seem as embarrassed of him as Marco was, it was probably because she was letting him cope with this all. She was a smart girl, too smart if you asked him.<br><br>He looked next to him to see a couple of parents (especially mothers) staring over at him. He was famous in a sense, he made a lot of interviews and did a lot of crazy things on his old show that many people would see him as a perfect human being... But he didn't feel that at all. He gave an awkward smile and wave to the crowd, getting into the car before any of them could dive into small talk. He didn't hate talking to people, it was just... difficult. Especially right now. <br><br>He would probably do what he did every day. He would call some buddies he had that were still talking about a new season for his show (and politely turn them down), clean the house, and then apparently help at this school fair. It was a change of pace from what he used to do, but this was still just as challenging.</div></div><br><br>If you have any questions about my RP's, or future ones just shoot me a PM!<br><br><span class="bb-b">Writers I adore</span><br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/alexakeehl">alexakeehl</a><br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/akayaofthemoon">Akayaofthemoon</a> <br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/blindwoofer">blindwoofer</a><br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/nightwing95">Nightwing95</a> ((We need to start a project sometime!))<br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/kzombi3">KZOMB13</a><br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/saz01">Saz01</a><br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/sinfulskills">EasilyAmused</a> ((My oldest and best friend on the site :D ))<br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/wistfulwords">wistfulwords</a><br><br>All of these people are amazing writers and friends and if you happen to RP with them consider yourself lucky!
