If things get real bad and you have to resort to cannibalism remember: Vegans first, they are the closest thing to grass fed.

Keep moving forward ۩
⚘ A Brief History
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
I've been at this a long time and when I say a long time I mean a long long damn time. I started out with table top, ADnD, back in the 80's, then dived into others: Nightlife, Mage the Ascension, Shadow Run, HoL, etc. Moved onto Online in the 90's. I've been running various incarnations of a single RP group for twenty years now. Worked helping setting up, building, and/or admining/modding various RP forums over the years: Adventure Quest, Priston Tales, War Gods, etc. It's been a long road filled with ups and downs. I'm an evil GM, you've been warned.

Outside of RP, I am a mom. Yup, I've reproduced and there are little Lady A's running around plotting their own take over of the world. I am a published author and once upon a time an award winning poet. I've done a lot in my life. I haven't done as much as I would like. I've grown a lot. I have a lot more growing to do. I love to cook, baker by trade currently. I went to university and majored in Mathematics. I've programmed websites, worked as a model, worked as a 3d modeler. Shit, I even used to dance. And have been known to sing a bit. Jack of all trades. Master of like 3, lol.


⚘ Looking Inside
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
This is where I go into my personality. In the past I would normally make some self deprecating remark about how I am a bitch of a GM, pushing my rpers as hard as I push myself and so forth. Not anymore. People change, or perhaps they just come into their own. This can happen at any age. More than that it can happen several times over the course of your life as you discover and rediscover yourself. Everything happens for a reason, usually that reason is ones owns actions. Or inaction's. Right now, I am in a better place than I can remember being in the longest time. I am happy and at peace. I have no regrets. Maybe I should but I don't. I plan on keeping this peace I have found, I went far too long without it.

Currently I am enjoying several things. Some are things I have enjoyed most of my life: Coffee, chocolate, bacon, M*A*S*H. One isn't something I have enjoyed since I was seventeen: being clean and free of poisons in my system. It is beyond description and I love it: One-hundred and twenty days and counting. Music taste is shifting to more mood oriented than anything, strange I am finding a lot of newer Country I am enjoying and I have NEVER liked country. Watching things like Lark Rise to Candleford and being hooked to the point of reading the trilogy. Recently added yoga to my workouts and all I can say is, "Fuckmaste: the fucked up in me accepts the fucked up in you."

@Morose Wait, I have an idea but she will have to be wait to be brought in. I can't say exactly what other than she is going to have business out of Ireland. Family business. (Not London) - I will work out the details later but I could bring her in. Maybe in the next couple of posts have her boarding the boat. I gotta plan a few things out coming in sooner than I had expected but yeah. I got an idea. (Will pm you when I get it worked out.)
@Morose The cost of travel alone is the big issue. You are looking a lot, more than she makes in a year just for bare minimal. She'd have to take a ship from Ireland to England first and then travel across land. Even today if she went by "horse and buggy" with today's ferries you are looking at 11 days. Back then with the roads being in horrible condition, the high level of Highway men, and more - If, and that is a big if, she got there alive, you are looking at a months travel. (Which she would have to start out in Dublin in the IC and move in time with the RP since her CS has her living in Dublin)

As to why, why would she go? London is a slum with smaller areas for the rich (Which the rich only come for the season and leave quickly because of the smell that covers the place.), they have cast off the Catholic Church, Irish gangs wouldn't cross into England's turf with the political issues, plus with the Soulless stuff - London has always had a problem - it would be far more dangerous a location for her daughter than Dublin. (no family, no safety net, etc)
@Morose Okay, I knew something was off for me with her and I finally put my finger on it. Her location. How is that going to work with her being in Dublin? Travel back then wasn't exactly fast. It would be at least a 2 week journey if you were wealthy and had your own carriage and horses, plus money to trade out. Looking a month for her. Trying to figure out how that would work exactly in the RP. I mean, it is approved but I don't know when she would be brought in.
Oh, had to go back and make an edit - had to address a bunnying. Since I made the announcement I am not going to correct in OOC most of the time and I will just handle it in IC.

Gene doesn't have control or even know where any of the Alliance crew is except for PC's - so her saying they looked at her is a breach into GM area - so that has been dealt with IC. She didn't see anyone, if she did it was in her own mind and part of her own self righteous narcissism at this point. And that is how it will be taken and read.

Bunny NPC's (or anyone for that matter) you don't have control over is a breach of rules, so GM has final word on how it is dealt with. This isn't up for discussion. (Here or PM)
@Charnobylisk @Morose @Rivaan @Sigil @FantasyChic @Caits @Nallore @Oliver

Okay, Char is on a week extension for now. With her and Oliver on extension, they characters have been bunnied off screen for now in my last post. (I did not post for Thana, she will come with Ash's next post.)


Tatiana Korvo


Location: Building 7 (Rec Center)
Interacting With: Jack, Froggy, Kris



Tatiana was on cloud nine. Everything had goner perfectly that day, or so she thought. She didn't know what people were thinking or talking about while she was away to grab the small gift bag. Had she known she might not have brought it out, she probably wouldn't have. She wasn't sure what was going on when she saw Bryn leaving the reception with one of the members of Newnan following close behind her. She didn't think anything about it, Bryn was a quiet person. Maybe she just wanted some alone time or time without so many people around. Anyways, her mind was on Jack just as it should have been.

Froggy was heading out as well. Smiling at Riley and letting her know that he had back over to the infirmary to give Medic a break so he could come and enjoy some of the festivities. He bid everyone good bye and gave Tatiana and Jack tight hugs before leaving the reception. The doctor ended up taking Ciel with him, figuring it was about time for the boy to get a breathing treatment before it got too late and maybe give him something to help him sleep. The boy looked like he hadn't rested in days.

Tatiana smiled as she stepped over to Jack once Froggy had left and rested her head on his shoulder. "Dah, everything is perfect," she said with a bright smiled. Looking at Kris she pursed her lips and shook her head. "Nonya," she said playfully before sticking her tongue out. Handing the bag over to Jack she giggled. It was a simple bag, one someone might have picked up from a gift store at the last minute. A little bit of tissue paper tucked into the top. Beneath that, once Jack reached in and looked, there was a thin long box that looked like a jewelry box. One that might hold a watch laid out or a bracelet. The bag was small, so only Jack would be able to see inside it once the paper was removed.




Ryan O'Reliy


Location: Building 7 (Rec Center)
Interacting With: Chloe, James, Ray



"Well no but damn," Ryan said before shoving another forkful of food into his mouth and shrugging slightly. Looking over Ryan cocked a brow as Ash went over to Bryn and then she quickly left with one of the security folk following on her heals. He nearly choked when he saw her pull out the glass from her sleeve and rest it on the table.

"And they were worried about me," he smirked through the chewing and motioning over to the glass. "Seems the Mute isn't as innocent as we thought," he snickered before his plate was finally filled with meat and so was Chloe's.

"Thanks Backwoods, not bad grub!" he said before turning, about to walk away when he nearly ran right into Ray and halted in his tracks.

"Damn ninja in there why don't ya," he laughed before giving Ray a pat on the shoulder and motioning for Chloe to go ahead and find a table for them. Weddings were actually something Ryan enjoyed. Granted this wedding wasn't like the ones he had been too for various members of his extended family back in New York. Those were large, loud, and drunken Irish Weddings. Like a Wake without the dead body. If there weren't at least three fights between cousins, it wasn't a party.

Then Ryan heard it, a tumble and the sound of wood hitting the ground. Turning around quickly he spotted Ray laid out flat on his back and his crutch had slid half way under the buffet table. No food hit anyone but seeing a one legged man sprawled out on the ground and a wet spot a few feet from him it was clear what happened. Ray has slipped on some melted snow that got carried in on everyone's shoes.

Ryan wasted no time, moving over to Ray quickly but he wasn't helping the man up. He looked like an umpire from baseball (well besides the plate of food he was carrying) and made a slow sweeping motion with his arms. "Safe!" he laughed loudly before he busted out laughing. Standing up, he held out his free hand to Ray to help him up off the floor if he wanted it. "Okay, maybe ye need some more Ninja training, or maybe yer just the Great White Ninja!"



Sana Rouen



Location: Building 7 (Rec Center)
Interacting With: No one



Sana was going to take a seat with Bryn but by the time she spotted her Bryn was leaving. Sana cocked a brow as she hadn't seen anything go down, her eyes looking everywhere but where the woman had been. So she had missed Ash talking to Bryn and the glass being revealed. Sana thought it was strange that Bryn was leaving but she figured she would find out later. She wanted to eat and it was probably a good idea for her not to talk to anyone right then.

Granted, she didn't get her wish. Soon as she sat down Miss Sally and Lyon came and sat down beside her. She grumbled under her breath, looking away from them and seeing that Beni was leaving as well. She figured he would be leaving early now that the wedding was over. Peaches was in his arms and having that dog running around was probably not a good idea. Her brows rose quickly as she heard the spill and her eyes darted over to see Ray. She couldn't help but smirk. Anyone falling on their ass was pure comedic gold to her. It was to most people. Hell, they hadn't had America's Funniest Home Video's for nothing. Crotch shots and ass busting were always tops.



Gavin Comfort


Location: Three miles west of Newnan, in the snow.
Interacting With: Ravi



Gavin couldn't help but laugh as Ravi joined in. It was good to see his friend smile. The man didn't smile enough as far as Gavin was concerned. Granted he didn't have the hang ups with killing Eaters like Ravi did. Gavin had long ago been able to push away that they were human anymore. He felt no remorse for putting them down. To him, he was doing them a favor. Figuring that anyone they used to be wouldn't want to be walking around performing cannibalism on everyone they came across.

Ravi still seemed to look at them like Old Yeller. He's my dog ma. I'll do it. Tear. Yeah, Gavin cried at the end of Old Yeller but who didn't? He figured only Walkers and people who had about as much humanity as a Roamer. If ya didn't cry at the end of Old Yeller there was only one excuse Gavin would accept - you hadn't seen it. Granted, back to Walkers, maybe Gavin had a little too much fun putting them down but hey you had to enjoy the little things and not getting eaten was a good thing!

Looking back at Ravi as he continued to trudged through the snow he got a devious look on his face. Ravi had joined in. It meant it was time. Time for the same damn song he always brought up when Ravi would join in. There was only song right for those moments. So turning forward Gavin kept pushing the snow out of his way as he walked and started to sing again. "You creep into my heart and make my heart burn!"

So bets, odds on if Anisa pulls the trigger or not? lol







Atticus chuckled a bit and nodded. Foy was an interesting person to say the least. The man seemed to have a love for adventure and fine clothing, among other things. When he got to the point of referencing what had brought a preacher to work with Browncoats he couldn't help but laugh. "Well, God knowing it might not be as big a story as you might think. I was alliance. Till I knocked Quinn on his ass and defected," he said the laugh fading away as he became somber in reflection. "He got in the way of me giving last rights... No one gets in the way of me performing Gods work, don't giving a flying fuck who he is. Quinn landed on his ass, I landed with the Vengeance."

For Anisa, that was the straw that broke the camels back. For someone that was supposed to be kind, compassionate, refined. Someone who was supposed to have training with dealing with people: A liaison, a diplomat. Gene was acting as if she had none of these qualities. Maybe Gene was sick, or delusional right then, because whatever Alliance crew she thought she saw looking at her were not there. The Alliance had a skeleton crew and all of them were elsewhere doing their damn job. There was no one there to even look at her, except in her own mind.

Anisa was opinionated and judgemental and she was surely judging Gene right then as she felt the fire rise in her face as she rose from her chair. That was it. Stepping out of the Captains office she went down the corridor. Following the sound of the woman's voice until she found her in the rec room. Anisa stepped in and didn't bother to shut the door. The look in her face was one that few had seen before. Only Jackson and Dorothy had seen Anisa this completely and utterly pissed off. The woman looked neigh on homicidal.

"You take you whoring ass and that slick tongue of your and keep your fucking opinions to your goddamn self!!!" Anisa spat at the top of her lungs. She had lost it and rightfully so. If Gene was going to go against everything she was just because Anisa wanted to bottle things in a bit longer to keep her crew safe, to keep the crew with a Captain, she could go to hell and get the fuck out of her life.

"I don't know who the hell you think you are or who the fuck you think you are talking to but this little arrangement we have is over. I will not deal with some highfalutin over paid call girl putting herself over the Gorham ship. My job is to make sure things function, including myself. I know what it takes to run a vessel you don't. You aren't a doctor, you aren't a gunner, you aren't even a over bearing preacher with good intentions. Just because people don't fawn at your feet around here doesn't mean shit. You will be exiting this vessel as soon as we dock."

Anisa had long had it with Gene's attitude. Going off like she had, causing more problems than she was worth. She had done nothing worth anything since she boarded the ship. Anisa had tried to work with her, get her to see how things had to be in the black but it never got through. These last couple of days had more than shown that she should have never let the woman on the Vengeance. Today showed her that any friendship they had ever had was over with. She had intended to talk to her later, once they were safe but not now. Not ever. They were done.

Her hand resting on her side arm before she drew it and pointed it at Gene. "And if I hear one more word uttered from yer overly injected lips, I will end you," she stated coldly. There was a look in Anisa's eyes that would have told a blind person that she was about to fire anyways. If Gene said anything she would squeeze the trigger. She lad lost her oldest and dearest friend, putting this bitch out of her misery would be nothing.

Atticus looked up as he heard the yelling, it wasn't much to hear it. The rec room was right outside of the Foyer. Taking a breath he motioned for Foy to take a step back. "Jesus Christ..." he said as he got out of the chair and pulled the barber cover off. Stepping into the hallway his eyes widened as he spotted Anisa standing inside the rec room with her side arm drawn and pointed towards Gene.
True. Poor Ray, all those people tracking in snow from outside and walking on a tiled floor, he's likely to bust his ass lol
Aww see, I wouldn't put up with that Nal, LOL I'd want someone who wanted to give me a hand out of kindness every so often instead of gossiping ;p
