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

⚘ 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."

Zoies Farm: Zoie's brow rose slightly at Mali's words. "Yeah, well let's us justs sees if we can't keep the body bags down to a minimal," she quipped. She wasn't sure what Mali was going for with those two sentences but she was heading out in this with the plan that people were going to die, just that it could happen. She was a Southern Girl, it didn't mean she was dumb. She knew good and well that things could turn south especially in Justice. Zoie just would rather die trying to help than running. Years ago she would have thrown her own sister under a bus to stay out of trouble, in fact... Shaking her head she pushed the thought out of her head. That was not something she wanted to think about but she knew she was damned to hell for what she did. "Thana...I'm sorry..." was all she would give herself right then in her mind.

At Mali's next words Zoie giggled, actually giggled. "You knows what, let's gets to know each others better. If we's takes a tumble I'd rather it mean somethang than treats ya like a client," she said before turning on her heels and strolling out of the room. Pulling the door shut s she went so Mali could have some privacy without having to worry about anyone walking by. Heading back down stairs she got to work on putting away dinner. There was a decent amount left, at least enough for a cold lunch tomorrow. That was if they were even at the house then. They had work to do the next day.

Roys Uber Mobile: - "Right, yeah," Roy said as he slowed the car down and let out a long breath. "Sorry, damned paranoid right now," he said before glancing into the review mirror. "Can you come up here please," he said moving his bag off the front seat and tossing it in the back next to Riley. "Grab that roll of bandages while your at it in my bag."

"And no, we aren't. Need to get to a safe house for now. I'm a little light headed," he said as his lips thinned. If Riley got in the front seat she would see that under his over shirt his white t-shirt was soaked in blood on the right side. Lifting the shirt she would see where all the blood had come from, a knife wound across his abs and around his side. Seemed things had been rather bad for Roy since the last time Riley saw him.

""It isn't deep but damn it is bleeding a lot. Can't pull over to wrap it up, so come on Nurse Ratchet, help your driver out so we don't get in a wreck from me passing out."




Newhope




Atticus couldn't but but continue to guffaw at the entire scenario. "Oh my dear Mr. Coiffer, life is about the shits and giggles. We were made to laugh and you sir are hilarious." Trying to calm himself, he still smiled. "Not in a point at him and laugh scenario but just the way you are brings such light. You are truly one of Gods greater creations. The 'verse is so much more colorful with you in it. He had a feeling Foy was just being Foy and not realizing how utterly absurd it would be to try to get anything out of the captain. Especially a new comer who hadn't done anything she felt was noble or noteworthy. Anisa was fair, across the board. Atticus knew Foy would get whatever the Captain felt like was fair, nothing more and nothing less. Any talk would do nothing to get him more than she thought he needed and that would be provided without talk but hey if he wanted to try, that was all on him.

Shaking his head, he patted Foy on the shoulder. "Best insight I can give ya is she doesn't Negotiate. Kind of like god in that respect." Chuckling he went back to work helping Foy move his things, whether or not he stayed seemed to be still up in the air but he felt if Foy did stay things were going to get very colorful very fast. He couldn't wait.

Anisa waited a few minutes after Dorothy left to move. She hoped Dorothy would take charge, she knew she would make a a good second hand if she just remembered that was what she was now. Dorothy was the only reason Anisa ever considered anyone that was former Alliance to be on the ship. Proof to her that anyone could sign up for the wrong side in the beginning. She just hoped she would get things worked out, she really didn't know what she would do if she lost another of her shipmates. If she did she would probably just send everyone but Atticus on their way and start completely fresh at the other end of the verse. It would be safer that way.

Heading back towards the cargo area and then out to the docks to find Harper and relieve him she spotted Jahosafat moving crates towards back of the ship. "What is that?"

Jahosafat stopped and handed over a slip of paper to her. Anisa took it and looked it over, eying him for a moment before nodding. "Right, make sure it gets stowed properly," she said flatly before walking off. Jahosafat just nodded, not being his usual happy self before moving on. He had been this way since Camilla had died. He was more talkative for sure right after but once it had sunk in that she was truly dead he had sunk into a quiet depression. On some level Anisa understood and could even empathize with him. So she let him be.

Walking back outside she glanced around before moving over to Harper. "I have it from here Harper. You can go and continue with your duties and such," she said not looking over to him and keeping an eye on the crowd. The buyer had ten more minutes to show up or she would be taking her business elsewhere. Pulling a cigarette from her pack she lit it and took a deep breath. Things seemed to be calm in the bustling crowd and she hoped it would remain that way. Come tomorrow, with any luck, they would have a new ship and the crew could go on leave for 24 hours before they really got back to work. But luck was never on their side.
Sunie Marks





Cocking a brow Sunie looked the man over. He seemed nervous, very nervous. About what she had no idea but she was not used to people having the jitters coming into her shop. Much less to ask for directions instead of a weapon. For some reason, in the back of her mind she was glad she was armed. She was always armed in her shop, people liked to try to push things or even rob her. It was the way of things, so she kept her side arm holstered on her body at all times when she was at work. Truth be told she kept it on her pretty much twenty-four:seven. Sleeping it was under her pillow, showering it was on the edge of the tub, walking around it was in its holster on her person just as it was now. It was better safe than sorry in this world, especially in her line of work.

"I should, depends on where you are trying to get to," she said as she stepped over to the counter but kept out of lunging arms length from the man. Sunie wasn't exactly a trusting person. Reaching up she pulled the cigarette she had been holding between her lips as she spoke and blew the smoke off to the side, ashing it a bit in one of the many ashtrays she kept about the shop. Taking a breath she continued to watch him. "Where are you going?" she asked before placing the smoke back between her lips. They had mentioned a dead body earlier on the news but that wasn't around here was it? She couldn't remember, being wrapped up in cleaning and papers she hadn't paid too much attention.
I will be updating Almack's tomorrow morning, as well as Scotland & Wyndham Manor come hell or high water. (Trying to get ahead since the next couple of weeks will be busy and trying to get my counters where I don't need to post on a Saturday or Sunday.)
@Morose @Rivaan @Sigil @FantasyChic @Caits @Nallore @TechnoWizROK @ONL - Alright, reminder that we are on day 3 since the overnight time jump. Those of you that have posted since the time jump are on your usual personal counters. Those that haven't, you are on day 3 now.

Please remember two things. 1) If you are going to collab you have to announce it in chat before day 5 of the counter otherwise it will not be accepted. 2) Also, don't ride the counter. Even if the counter is reset, it doesn't look good if you are active elsewhere on the forum but over a week since you posted here.

Right now I am just tired of the excuses. I get that people are busy, hell we ALL are. That is life. We get busy, school kicks our asses, so does work, and kids, and family, and illness, and so forth to infinity and beyond. You work with it, you work around it. I have no problem cutting breaks for people part of the time. Sometimes it just gets to be too much but seriously, if every few days or weeks you are dropping me some sob story of - Oh I'm busy, I have this, I have that - STOP! I've heard it! Yeah yeah, you had this this week and this the next, and this the following. For months, a year, two years even. I'm not sympathetic at this point. You made a commitment, stick to it.

Slight tangent on that - All the "kids" or "young adults" on the forum I see bitching about their parents not understanding them or not treating them like adults. Then I see you flake out on Rp's, whine no one wants to rp with you, post "I'm quitting" to get attention and only to be back 12 hours later. Seriously? You want to be treated like an adult - ACT LIKE ONE! That means keeping the commitments you make, not flaking out, not making excuses, not whining, not attention seeking, and for the love of god not making up stories just to get someone to go "oh you poor thing!" - Hate to tell you this but it is just gonna get harder the older you get, so suck it up buttercup and get a helmet - Life is gonna suck when you grow up!

And on that note - I'll leave you with this little diddy.
@rivaan Good to go, move him over to the CS tab - if you wish you can enter Almack's now, we can work off the whole he came with Vlad - drove the carriage. Seeing people running out and a wounded woman being carried in - or just Myska taking off - caused him to check out what was going on.

@Sigil - Clear to edit your CS relations for Vlad at this point.
Will be posting tomorrow
@Morose Thank you and no worries, that is on me for not being clear about it.
