the title pretty much says it all, yeah? looking for a fairly experienced writer to do this rp/bordering on back and forth long form project with me! preferably another dialogue and description addict :)) i would really appreciate if you could be prepared to respond with fairly long passages, equivalent to one doc page or more? but! you would only have to do this ~once a week, and expect the same from me bc i have academic commitments and a life but i'm trying to fit this in <3. anyway, if you're interested (and also over like 13 but younger than like 19ish? bc i'm a minor but not a child-child and neither of us should be uncomfortable) please come talk to me!

oh unless you don't fit the criteria somehow in which case sorry dude! but i'd be honored if you wanna read it :))
yeah i believe i meet all of your criteria. i don’t typically do extremely literate role plays just out of preference so it’ll take me a bit to find a good sample for you.

(Yay!)
She had been sitting under a tree throwing a rubber ball up in the air. He had been working up the courage to talk to her all day, and this seemed like the perfect opportunity. She didn’t look up when he walked over.
Oliver had heard rumors about her. “A tragic past,” a girl in Oliver’s english class had whispered to her friend. “Someone at her old school tried to feel her up.”
“I heard they succeeded,” her friend had whispered back. The teacher had just called roll, calling her “Samantha Mi-Gyeong” but pronouncing “guy-ong”. Oliver didn’t know exactly how to pronounce it, but he was pretty sure it wasn’t that. But Sam didn’t even bother to correct him. She just raised her hand, looking bored.
Oliver didn’t stand too close, not wanting to scare her off. She looked athletic. In P.E. she had run faster than any of them and she barely broke a sweat. She could probably beat him up. “Um, hi.” His voice came out quiet. He waited but the girl didn’t say anything. Her only reaction was her eyes darting to look at his shoes. Maybe she hadn’t heard him. He took a breath and tried again. “My name’s Oliver.” He looked down at the basketball in his hands.
There was a heavy sigh. “Sam.”
Oliver’s head jerked up in shock. “Hi! My name’s uh. I mean.” Oliver was pretty sure he saw Sam’s brow furrow. “My mom made chocolate chip cookies yesterday. And I have an extra. Do you want one?”
Sam finally looked up at him, and he got his first real look at her. Her eyes were brown, like his. Her hair reached just above her shoulder and looked a little choppy, like whoever had cut it hadn’t done a very good job. Her eyes narrowed as she looked him up and down. She looked tense when her eyes reached the basketball, but she kept going. Then she studied his face like she was searching for lies. Finally, she looked at the ball in her hands and shrugged, scooting over just a little to make room for him. “Thanks.” Oliver sat down, leaning against the tree, but still giving Sam her space. He passed her a cookie “So what do you think of the school so far? Is it pretty different from your old school?” Their school was a private school. Oliver was there on a partial sports scholarship and a partial academic scholarship.
Sam glared at him like she couldn’t believe he was still talking. “It’s different,” she finally admitted.
“Yeah, this place is pretty different from where any of us have ever been. Did you play sports at your old school? You left the football team in the dust in P.E. today.”
“I played a couple. I also just run a lot.”
“You should totally join track or cross country. I heard both of those teams suck at our school. You could really help them out.”
“Yeah, I’m not doing that.”
“Why not?”
Sam sighed like she was exasperated. “Because. Running isn’t my main sport. And I . . . don’t really do teams anymore.”
“Oh.” Oliver was insanely curious, but he knew not to pry. “That’s a shame.”
“Besides, if I was going to do a team sport, it wouldn’t be a running one. That’s lame. There’s barely any competition. It’s just you and time.”
“Well yeah, but you’re competing against someone else’s time.”
“Still lame. What’s your deal, are you an advocate for track or something?”
“No, just trying to find a sport for you. Do you play basketball?”
Sam’s grip on the ball tightened. “I used to.”
“Used to?”
“Yup.”
“Oh. That’s a shame.” Oliver gently tossed the ball between his hands. “I was going to see if you wanted to play.”
“Well, sorry to disappoint.”
“No, it's okay. I got it.” Oliver wondered if Sam wanted him to leave.
She sighed, surprising him. “Sorry. I mean . . . maybe some other time?”
Oliver smiled. Sam looked up. “Yeah, of course.”
(brilliant! kinda want to read more of that story now lol, it looks really sweet. i'll try and get character templates up within the next few hours. let me know if you have any questions about the story concept to far :))
(Aww thanks! Awesome! I have a few. Is this gonna be wlw? And do you have any background info or general info on the world/city where the rp takes place?)
(Aww thanks! Awesome! I have a few. Is this gonna be wlw? And do you have any background info or general info on the world/city where the rp takes place?)
(i really didn't have a plan for the pairing! i'm comfortable with mlm, wlw, enby characters, whatever you'd like, but i would like it to be queer and i would appreciate a certain degree of fun futuristic gender-non conformity. i do not have much established info, bc i kinda came up with it on the spot, but a lot of skyscraper neon techno-grunge (because that's 100% a real genre lmao) in the aesthetic department. also, i think there's really commercialized space travel, but only for the wealthy? even more division between classes. lots of lower class folks work in manufacturing, minimum wage assembly line situations, which have high fatality rates due to little regulation of corporations, leading to an above average amount of orphans in the city. also, there are robotic police, which are just as bad (if not a bit worse) than human police. the government completely plays for the massive corporations, with little concern for the welfare and safety of the middle and lower class. the middle class generally lives in less congested, further out suburbs, while the lower class is more typically cramped into the wild cities where our story takes place. but also, i wanna hear any of your ideas for the setting! pls feel free to come up with whatever (but no superheroes or magic powers this ain't the genre) :))
~template time~
name: (feel free to make it as future-y and wild as you want)
age: (17ish? maybe?)
gender and pronouns:
sexuality:
appearance: (including clothing decisions)
personality: (including some likes n dislikes perhaps?)
background: (including family stuff)
motorcycle gang information: (our characters are in rival teenage delinquent motorcycle gangs like a bad romcom from the 50s except for gay and a little bit anarchist! this stuff can be totally cheesy, but have a name n some identifying symbols for your gang, plus some names of other members who might show up at some point in the story)
other: (idk i probably forgot something so just put anything you have to add about ideas/arch for your character here)
(just checking that you're still up to do this? obviously no time pressure bc i specified you really don't have to be active on this more than once a week, but i'm just making sure as we haven't really begun yet.)
(Yup! I'm almost done with my character, she'll be ready either tonight or tomorrow)
name: Nova Ryker
age: 17
gender and pronouns: Female, she/her
sexuality: She doesn't like to label it (hope this is okay. if not, I'll change it)
appearance: Her hair is somewhere between straight and wavy. Its naturally brown but she dyes it bright blue. The lights of the city look really cool reflecting off of it. She also dyes her eyebrows blue. Her eyes are brown and her skin tone is a little dark. She's fairly thin. (I kind of imagine her looking like and older Luz from the Owl House just with longer and dyed hair?) Wears pretty plain black, navy blue, grey, or dark green tight, high-waisted pants. Usually wears either a crop-top with a high neck (covers her collarbones) or a sports bra shirt thing. Usually wears leather (or another sturdy material) boots and a cropped jacket. Usually, its her gang jacket, but she has a few others.
personality: A planner. Likes to think things out and make plans. She's good at trouble-shooting and is very solution-oriented. She's very concerned with not have support or having her plans blow up. She can be pretty reactive (and a little mean when that happens). She's a very go-down-with-the-ship type and will hang on to relationships and people longer than most people. Very loyal because she fears being abandoned. Likes: feeling invincible, rain, coffee. Dislikes: feeling lonely, hot weather, overly sweet things
background: (TW for S*icide) When she was six her mother got in trouble with the police and was killed in the street. Two days later she found her father hanging in his bedroom doorway. She ended up on the street. She was able to keep herself alive for about a year. However, one day a factory worker had cornered her in an alleyway, when a person named Ren (who was 13 at the time) came and saved her. They took Nova under their wing and brought her into the gang. They taught her how to ride and fight anf stand up for herself.
motorcycle gang information: The Scarlet Lion Syndicate (or just the scarlet lions) (lowkey may have looked up fake gang names and mashed two together). Their mascot is a red/scarlet lion. Its painted on the back of their jackets. A little red mane sillouette is painted on the front top left corner of their jackets and on the side of their bikes. Most of their bikes are some combination of red, scarlet, grey, or black. The leader of the gang is named Theta, the second is command is Ren. The gang doesn't have a lot of male or masculine people, though there are expections to this.
other: I had a plot-ish idea? So the Scarlet Lions and your character's gang are rivals, right? I had an idea that the current leader of the Scarlet Lions isn't super harsh on your gang and Ren thinks she should be harsher. Then at a climatctic point in our character's relationship, Ren stages a mutiny, becomes the new leader of the gang, and plans a dangerous strike against your gang. And at this point Nova would be more loyal to your character and has to wrestle with her loyalty to your character vs her loyalty to Ren. Idk just an idea
(sick i love her!! i should be able to get my person up in the next few days. i actually already have a bit of a plan for the plot, and it's slightly lighter? my starting concept was the rival gangs to have some sort of fight on the street, and nova tries to kill my person, but instead the dumbass robot cops get them and throw them both in jail. they have to plan their escape together, and that's when the general ~chemistry~ that guides the rest of the story starts. but, now that i think about it, your plot could work really well to begin after they get out of prison! does that sound alright for you? if not, we can figure something else out :))
(Yeah that sounds great! And don’t feel obligated to add my plot in, it was just an idea. If you like it, I’m good with doing it, but yeah!)
(i really genuinely do like it!)
