Discuss Gifts and Curses: The Underground [M-LVS]

[Vicky]

[SIZE=1]Post, midgets, post >=O

Nah I kid, I know it's busy in the holidays, heh. Just a warning that the special starts today at some point, so try and get your characters home. Also, you can involve your own characters in the special.

And I am not just saying that because I'm adding a character in one post!

...Okay, I am. But yeah, freedom for this chapter again. Make it interesting ^_~

Ooh and after the christmas special, there's a huge surprise. There is no getting around this surprise, it will happen and there's nothing you guys can do about it, buwaahaha. You'll see anyway.[/SIZE]

[Disenchanted]

[SIZE=1]Hello once more my fellow Gift and Cusens

Just letting you know Vicky and everyone else that I?ll be away?again, for another week starting Monday. I really dislike the time after and before Christmas, sigh. Any who have fun all. When I get back I?m not going anywhere else so posting will hopefully be a lot more frequent from me. Thanks very much for looking after Eden peoples.

Enough ranting.

Bye!

Hope I don't miss this fantabulious surprise Vicky :(

[SIZE=1]*Cracks knuckles* Hehe... it's fantastic, alrigh' *evil laugh*

...Uh, yeah. I hope you can get back soon, I wouldn't worry about missing it, the surprise will be an incredibly short chapter anywho and carry onto the next chapter so you'll have a chance to post your character's reaction to whatever I have planned, then join in the action, all in one chapter (whereas anyone who's on time gets one whole chapter to post their reactions and then move onto some action).

Hope that makes some sense, heh.[/SIZE]

[size=1][color=DarkGreen][b]Hope this is okay, Vicky.[/b][/color][/size][size=1][color=DarkGreen][b]
Name:[/b] Isobel [Bella] Camden[/color][/size][size=1][color=DarkGreen]
[b]Age:[/b] 19[/color][/size][size=1][color=DarkGreen]
[b]Star Sign:[/b] Pisces[/color][/size]
[size=1][color=DarkGreen][b]Powers:/Night[/b] See first post. Powers are very much like Cat's; water when emotional, etc. etc. One could almost say that they were inherited... the only difference is that Bella's a little bit older, her anger and the vicious streak in her is a little bit stronger, and, as a result of the incident surrounding her gaining her powers, she has the ability to flood a person's body -- drown them from the inside out. Of course, she has to be [i]very[/i] worked up to do it. [/color][/size]

[size=1][color=DarkGreen][b]Appearance:[/b] Light blonde and quite fine hair, brown eyes, and average stature. Her physical appearance has some similarities to Cat, however the two had never met. Her clothes are of two natures; one type quite casual and practical, another perfectly designed to make people feel inferior. Her clothes fit perfectly now, however, using her powers drains her physically, and excessive [and prolonged] use would result in her looking emaciated.
[b]
Personality:[/b] Isobel is a classical Pisces; she?s talented, artistic. She?s the one who is ?going somewhere?. The thing is, with all Pisceans, when it comes down to it, she?s also just a little *****. It might be something to do with her star sign; scales can cut when they rub the wrong way. There?s just an ever-so-slight vicious streak in her. You?ve seen these girls; the gossipy, almost petty ones, who will cut you with a glance.[/color][/size]

[size=1][color=DarkGreen]The ones who, most of the time, seem to be spun sugar. They?ve got every opportunity in life; talent, drive, and the probability of a very successful future ? but every so often, they choose to step down from their pedestal just to make others feel like ****.[/color][/size][color=DarkGreen][size=1]

[/size][/color] [size=1][color=DarkGreen]That?s not to say she?s not sensitive; Isobel is. But sensitivity is a double edged sword, because she knows exactly how to impale her opponents.[/color][/size][color=DarkGreen][size=1]

[/size][/color] [size=1][color=DarkGreen][b]Biography/Sample:[/b] Bella grew up with a normal life; good friends, good grades, some artistic talent, good life. Nothing out of the ordinary. She was relatively popular at school, graduated with high marks and got accepted into University.[/color][/size]

[only1specialed]

to my fellow....fellows. im still having a hard time getting time to sit down and write my part of the story. im glad to see that we have a new replacement and im already looking at some ideas for some future post. ill post when i can but im having a hard thinking of what to write next.

[Vicky]

[SIZE=1]Only! You're alive! =D At least you posted which is all that matters, really. I hope you can post more often, good to know you're sitll with us ^_^

And welcome to the game, Lady A. Awesome sign-up.

Tonight I shall post, if not tomorrow after school. Saturday or Sunday will be the start of our surprise and new chapter, though to be fair I normally end up tired on Saturday's (dude, it's a Saturday, I always end up doing the craziest, most draining things... such as getting stuck in trees >_>;;)

So yes, just a small update, is all.[/SIZE]

[Ezekiel]

[SIZE=1]I know I haven't posted at all recently, which is because I found myself without internet over Christmas and am now struggling to keep up. If I could jump in again with the start of this new chapter that would be good, and I could do a sort of recap in that post.

Would that be okay? Sorry I've seem disinterested, as I'm not. Just failing to understand. DX[/SIZE]

[Vicky]

[SIZE=1]Sure thing, s'okay Ezekiel.

Okay, moving onto the new chapter. People therefore would need to wrap up their Christmas stories... mostly me... and Reve XD

And I think it's time to reveal the name and game of this chapter, though it may be short. As I said, there's no getting out of this, one way or another it has to happen. Just thought I'd inform everyone beforehand, you see. So the big surprise is...

You're all getting kicked out of your homes. Well, you characters. And, you'll be forced to live with either 1) the 'good guys' in a rather large mansion-type home or 2) the 'bad guys' at Dani's house. So far, we've got a good list.

[B]Mansion[/B]
Eddie [Only]
Dorian [Vertias]
Brian [Darren]
Beth [Ezekiel]
Moses [StarrStruck]
Eden [Eclipse]

[B]Dani's House[/B]
Charles [Ozy]
Dani [Me, duh]
Zane [Ikillion]
Juliet [Revelation]


[I]Note:[/I] Prince Van and Lady A both have a choice of their place to stay, partly because I haven't had chance to figure out a place. However, Dani would only have room for one more person so whoever gets their voice heard first gets their character's place.

Quan, being a business-type-ish man, is going to be used for the evictions. Some way or another each of you will have to find a way for your character to be thrown out of their homes and you will be offered a place to stay, by Quan or by finding it yourself, with the other Zodiacs. Like I said, you can expand on the way you'll all live in the next chapter as it will be a short chapter this time round. By doing this, they'll be no more running into characters and you'll all be forced to interact more =)

Love me or hate me for it, folks, I reckon it's gunna be fun as hell, nuh?

EDIT: Forget to add, Ozy helped with the idea too ^_~ give her thanks as well[/SIZE]

[Darren]

Yah, I like this. Especially since it's a surprise in the story. That should spice things up. I've been waiting to post, hoping that a few more will become involved in the story again giving me the chance for one of my "monter posts," that I tend to do occassionally.

:animesigh

But I still luv you Vicky... You're too creative to hate. I suspect I'll post tomorrow after school, regardless of wether or not someone else has posted.

Okay, bye! :D

[Veritas]

[size=1][color=gray]Hey, I like my house hahaha, I suppose I could make appropriate adjustments to this new place I'll be staying at. Anywho I do like the idea, the real reason I'm posting is to say sorry I haven't posted in awhile and I'm still around. I'll try to post something tomorrow after I get home from work. Until then, Bon Voyage.[/color][/size]

[only1specialed]

rats that is a big surprise indeed. now how im gonna get evicted is gonna be the hard part... especially since im living with someone. well ill think of something.

[Darren]

Okay I posted...
But then I came up with a question. What mansion are we talking about exactly? I know that Eden lives with her grandfather in a mansion so I just assumed that was what you were talking about, but now I know better. So, which one is it, because I kinda just wasted creative juices on leading back to Eden if that's not even where we'll be staying....

Oh, and one more thing: Obviously Quan is the bad guy right now. He's kinda drawing everyone where he needs them to be. He's knowledgeable in everything that he needs to be. But where's the good guy? They guy that's there for sort of informing everyone and helping them to get settled in? So if it's not okay, then we can kinda ignore it, but I was pondering on that so I included the old man again with the fliers again. He's the closest thing to the opposite of Quan I've seen in the story thus far so I figured he'd make an excellent protagonist for the 'good guys.' I don't know if you already had something planned out for him or if was just going to be there for a few posts. In any case, my post won't screw with your over all plan. Like I said if there's something wrong with it, we can just ignore that little detail and move along with the story.

Thanks 'gain,
D!

EDIT: I saw in your post of the surprise that you didn't include Cairo and his place to stay... So does that mean that we're finding someone else, again??? :animeangr
That sucks! Now, I'm gonna go bash Saggitarius on the "your zodiac" thread. hehehe

*thinks of something clever to say to get on Tekka's nerves and the skips off towards the thread*

[SIZE=1]Nup, the house the good guys'll be staying in will be a new house that no one's been in. I'll help introduce it in awhile, if you like.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]Here's a clue: if Quan's Oculus Sinister, the left eye... well, you know. Basically, there will be a good guy, soon. He won't be present in these two chapters, look out for any chapters in Latin (Quan was introduced in Memento Mori, remember). How you are moved out of your own home and how you find the new home is up to you, Quan is there as a way to help, if you want. He's very smart like we know, so he could easily get you all evicted... and just as easily convince you to live with the others.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]Actually, this time around I don't think we'll be finding a replacement. There's not much point if we keep introducing new people, heh, I think we can get along good with our cast right now.[/SIZE]


[quote name='Darren']*thinks of something clever to say to get on Tekka's nerves and the skips off towards the thread*[/quote]


[SIZE=1]Yeah, you know, Capricorns rock ^_~

I know it's a problem for those who live with other people as Only said, but that's the beauty of it all, buwahaha. You have to do anything to get out of the home you're currently in, hehee. I feel like I'm cheating for having Dani stay in his house, but really, he has to put up with Charles and Juliet. Isn't that punishment enough?! Ha. =p[/SIZE]

[Revelation]

[size=1][color=#4B5B5B]*GASPS* I can't believe you just said that! Juliet is not PUNISHMENT! She is, in fact, err...okay so maybe she is punishment but still, she has to put up with Charles' and Dani's fighting. So obviously, she's got the short end of the stick.

Darn boys thinking they can wave their hands high and act like king. They all will bow down to the Empress' feet and lift her name high! *steps off pedestal*

Now then, shall we move on?[/size][/color]

Isnt that true though =D

Yeah sorry for me not posting as of late. I've been doing homework into the wee hours of the night as of late and its been keeping me from doin' lots of things. I'll probably post around the weekends and only on the weekdays if I'm lucky.

PS: This new chapter = t3h s3x[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[Vicky]

[SIZE=1]Well I'm glad everyone likes the new chapter, heh. My posting might be somewhat short and a little less during the next week, we were told we have a REAL GCSE exam on Tuesday and Friday for Science (real meaning real real real deal, GCSE meaning the most important exam in my life). They told us a week before an exam so important as this and now I have to catch up on six months of work >_<

See, kids, always listen in class. You never know when you'll have an exam shoved in your face that'll determine what jobs you can and cannot get.

So that's all I wanted to say, really. Feel free to murder my science teacher(s). Actually, please do. Just to make me smile in the exam hall.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]Most important before you get to A levels, that is. =p

I feel bad if they're springing a real exam on you this early. The only thing I think we had was a modular exam. But they still count, so ):

Good luck Vicky! They'll be behind you soon enough, though.

[B]Relevant stuff:[/B] Do we just make our way to the house and start describing it ourselves or do you want to do that?[/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]Well, you guys will be living in it, so it's up to you. Maybe you can have a little talk amongst yourself or something about it, though I'm sure the description wouldn't be too big an issue. Personally I'd go for the 'creepy old big huge mansion falling apart omfg dodgy left over books and items still there' ... feel... or look >_>

Up to you guys.

(And so far my GCSEs are most important, might not be doing A level stuff... long story, heh)[/SIZE]

[4815162342]

[SIZE=1][COLOR=DarkOliveGreen]I should hopefully be posting this evening after work, or sometime tomorrow. *nods* Right now, though, I must go see if calling into work as "dead" works to get me off the schedule for tonight. >>[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[Vicky]

[SIZE=1]We still have another test. Oh fookin' joy. Friday, I will post, as intended tonight but I got home far too late.

Sorry folks, I'm trying not to let stuff slow me down. But my life is a stubborn ***** =(

I'll postas soon as I'm home tomorrow.[/SIZE]

[Darren]

Sorry folks!
I'll be taking about 3 days' break from the computer. I'm going to meet some acting/modeling agents all weekend, starting tomorrow.... *crosses fingers* So, hopefully, I'll be able to post Sunday night or Monday.

P.S. In retrospect, maybe I'm a little too much like Brian. *shrugs* oh well...

:sleep:

[only1specialed]

hey guys still kinda slow for me over here. great news though im due out of here very shortly.

[Vicky]

[SIZE=1]Hope all goes/went well Darren ^_~

I'm waiting on either Reve or Ozy to post... perhaps things are getting a bit too hectic in real life out there? Hope we can speed the game up agaon soon =([/SIZE]

[Darren]

School's being a major B****, you know. We about to start major testing here pretty soon... I didn't even realize that we were so close to tests already... This year is flying by! I'm overloaded at school right now, and I have play rehersal followed by some honor society induction ceremony thing tonight... So if I get home in time, I'll post tonight. If not, I'll make sure to post tomorrow-- Crap, I have rehersal tomorrow and Thursday, too! Shoot! I'll make it work, don't worry.

DARREN!

P.S. I almost died over the weekend without my computer. Also, the nerves were crazy! And thanks for the luck Vicky, it came in handy; way better than what my friends gave me... I now have a manager in LA!!! :D YAY!

P.S.S. I saw your new signature about how myspace ate your soul... Join the club :animedepr That's another reason why I almost died over the weekend: No myspace or OB! I survived everthing, though so I'm good to post soon!
