Cold-Blooded [Moving to a New Thread]

I know he's into Maria but yeah, Idk what that means about his family ties too. But I'm mostly wondering if Apollo is still around with Praetor. Edit: And I left that post a little open just in case.

Cold-Blooded [Moving to a New Thread]

I just wanted to stop in and say how much I miss all of you guys. I am still keeping up with the rp. I read every post. I will be coming back after I get some things in my life straightened out. As soon as I feel up to handling two rps I will be back. I promise. Thank you for keeping my character as part of the story. I appreciate it more then you know. You guys are an awesome group of rpers and it is a privilege and a blessing to be a part of the story with you.

@Myst

Looking forward to your return. :D Take all the time you need, though. Your well being comes first. And sidenote, besides Otto, Lucian, and Mira, how many of our Kingstons are present?

Blood Raiders

Her teammates were on the hunt and that was all well and good, but Vivian found another form of entertainment. She stood idly by in a comic book store, merchandise in her hands as her eyes glazed over page by page. In her opinion, this mission didn't even need so many on the case, anyway. Besides, her business allowed her to work toward another goal: she listened as her teammates chased and tracked the thieves or murderers or whatever, remaining passive as they moved farther and farther away. And once the city was relatively quiet, she put the book down and walked out the comic book store, her golden eyes flickering about. Confident that she was alone, she pulled a tourism map from her back pocket and started for the nearest bus station.

I need to stop biting my nails. Throw some advice at me

Thanks for the advice and "advice," everyone. :D Especially you, Sunflower. I'll definitely try the gum thing. Coming up with a goal will be a little more difficult, I think because I've grown to just not care about looking feminine or nanything. (But don't take this the wrong way, I'm not putting anyone down for it and I think it's awesome when other girls have the motivation and skill to pretty up, lol.)

Got my laptop charger back surprisingly quickly so I'll be able to post frequently. I'll work on a post now. :D

Blood Raiders

Alrighty, I should be able to post more often again. Got my laptop charger back and I'm good to go. I'll catch up and make a post now.

Blood Raiders

No problem. No one will post until you're done editing. And I'm getting off work now, but I'll be able to post again Thursday.

Blood Raiders

Hahaha, I love Dracul's attitude "Look at all these filthy casuals..." I propose a pro-gaming AU where he's the hardcore gamer and everyone else plays--gasp--for fun.

Blood Raiders

Apparently, because Pestilence has wind controlling magic, which entitles him to... Aura reading? Where did that come from?

@VKAllen

I didn't get that from his post at all. I think by "aura" in that one post he meant the generic atmosphere and tenseness in the room. Like if you walk in people after they just had a heated argument--you weren't there, but you just know something happened and you pick up on it in the atmosphere.

If you could write a Superman story what would it be about?

I find superman is very relatable, he grew with an honest background, his parents weren't rich, he was adopted and he works an average job. It's funny because superman could work almost any job if he chose to but he chose an more average job as a reporter. In a sense Superman is going against the norm that we all have to be over achievers which in my opinion is a serious problem that society has. Superman is symbol that we don't need to be billionaires or over achievers to do good.

@The Patriarch

Oh, yeah, definitely. My emphasis on how different he is one reason why he's so easy to relate to. He seems like a run-of-the-mill average Joe, but what makes him great is the stuff he hides from others (and from himself early on). And I think a LOT of people are like that. I like to think I'm like that. He's just relatable all around, even in his difference.

He also an allegory for the immigrants who came to America and made the country better

@The Patriarch

Exactly! That's why I think he's so important as a character. The importance of his diversity is lost in American culture, and it's a great allegory for immigrants and outsiders who struggle to fit in when they (and the rest of the society) need to learn how valuable different can be. There is strength in diversity and everyone has something to offer no matter their origins--or rather because of their origins.
