TOPIC | LF: New 1x1 Partners
Hello! Are you still looking for partners? @Cytus
Hello! Are you still looking for partners? @Cytus
Hello! o/ I go by Space, and I am interested in potentially starting an RP with you. I am a new working professional and I have finally gotten into the groove of the routine enough that I believe I will have time to get into RPing again! ^^

I live on the opposite side of the US as you, on the East Coast. I work from home, but the nature of my work is project-based, which means I have busy days and slow days. As such, I can't promise that I will be able to post every day, especially if the time calls for a longer post, but I will be available to communicate every day.

The RPs I have been a part of recently have been on a separate RPing site, but I have been using Discord to communicate with my partners and I find it the most conductive when it comes to the sort of communication I enjoy doing. I'm definitely a chatter and a planner, and I'm always up for discussing characters, plot points, head canons/actual canon because we're writing the story, sharing photos of pets, etc. As such, I'm very big into world-building myself, and am always a giant fan of doing so.

I unfortunately don't know much about WoW and Warframe, but if there's certain themes you want to explore that you think would be good to incorporate into an original world, I'd be up for it! Fantasy has always been a love of mine and I'm always interested in what other people think of it.

If you would like to see some writing samples, please let me know! Hope to hear a response from you soon. ^^

@Zeppy

The thread is still up, and I haven’t labeled it as closed, so yes - I am!

@FloatingInSpace

I don’t mind slightly slower posts! Sometimes we really are just a little too busy to handle things all the time, but as long as you tell me it’s all good. Congrats on the new job, hope you’re doing well in it ^^

I’m a little iffy on using a separate site entirely, since the more places I keep things, the more easily I lose stuff. But that’s up for negotiation, especially if we really hit if off. Also, I love seeing people’s pets (a lot of my friends have cats, and I think they’re adorable, but I can’t have one due to fur allergies in the home, oops.) - I will share photos of my snake in return, since that’s something I actually can keep lol.

Totally fine if you don’t know anything! Current hankerings don’t impact my quality in writing overall. And some of the OCs used could be pulled and reworked to fit a more general setting. Some writing samples would be great! Also, is there any type of plot that intrigues you?

@Cytus
Lovely!

I’d say I fit your criteria pretty well! I am really active (super quick replies as you can see haha) I do use discord more than FR as well. I’m down for any kind of rp plot but WoW since I’m not really familiar with it. I did play Warframe for a little bit and got the gist of the plot (should really get back into that, that game is a lot of fun). But I’m really interested into world building + sci fi/medievalish.

I do have writing samples but they’re a lil short when I started rping, I can give you one if you like!

@Zeppy

A writing sample would be great, and there is no need to ping me. I'll look at what you give and gauge if our styles would mesh - I don't write a crazy amount all the time, I adapt to partner needs ^^

Oh my bad! ^^;

Here's two posts from the same rp I was in a year back I think. I wish I could give you more recent ones but unfortunately I had to delete my discord account that had all my rps with it and I had a different rp partner but everything with them always turned bland and bitter

The rather-small Wildclaw lowered his stance and sheathed his rustic sword. "..Scared me." He murmurs and sighs. "Maybe before you burst through caves, check it before. I could've hurt you pretty badly." His small hands twitched. What was a Skydancer doing here? The desert was no match to their fragile bodies, they were meant for the sky not the desert. It didn't matter to him, he wasn't his concern. Shaking away the bitter thought, he turned to sit back down on some ruined and tattered cloths. He exhales slowly and beckons him to sit. Barren glanced up at the ceiling. The Skydancer did hiss, what could it mean? Remember, Barren, he thought quickly and searched through his fuzzy mind. "..You're hurt. I think. The sandstorm got under your feathers, am I correct?" If he was correct, he'd help. If not, he'd just leave the Skydancer to tend to himself. To recollect.

Barren listened to the roaring winds outside and the occasional drips from the small stream behind him that was farther back in the cave. He glanced to the side to check cracks for any scorpions that may have hid. Then returned his thoughts and eyes back to the stranger. "What brings you to the Shifting Expanse?"

@Cytus

Thank you for the congrats! It's been a little rough onboarding online rather than in person, but I am very fortunate that everyone is understanding and giving me more time to adjust.

Oh sorry, I didn't mean we had to RP on a different site, I was just trying to explain that my experience in RPing has been mostly on a different site, with a different crowd and format than FR. We can definitely keep our IC RP on the FR forums! (Boy that's a lot of acronyms.)

I've always been a fan of a blend of low-to-medium fantasy worlds, places that have mythical beasts like dragons, phoenixes, or potentially made up ones like giant undead wolves and whatnot.

Oh boy, it's been a long while since I've RPed! The newest thing I've written is a character sheet here, but as you can see, the coding is very broken. The last actual writing sample I had is as follows:
Quote:
There were impressions to be made.

The morning he was supposed to go to Liddy Oakley's, he woke up at 5AM for the first time since the investigation started, brushed his teeth, went for a run, returned home, only stared at his vodka before closing the door, and made his way to his bedroom, where he pulled out a black, collared shirt, and its matching T-shirt. The collared shirt had white flowers imprinted on its collar, with a pearl placed in the center where the stigma was to be and the petals wrapped around said pearl. There were thin, dull green stems coming from the flowers and when he pulled on the matching T-shirt, it appeared as though the stems disappeared beneath the sweater, or into his shirt, as if the flowers were growing out of him. The T-shirt did not have the pearls on them, but still had pressed white petals and dull green stems, though this time the stems all traveled around, in a circle, as if he had placed a wreath on them. He picked through his hair, doing his best to let it stand to its fullest, before turning to his pants to face the more difficult decision; beige, pressed dress pants; grey paper-bag pants, or white, linen pants. In the end, he decided to wear the white pants, as it didn't call much attention to itself and therefore let the shirt speak for itself. To elevate the look and to look more professional, he wore polished brown oxfords (from his time at Hermes' Wings. He breathed in deeply as he put them on-- but Liddy didn't need to know about that).

Work was a slog as it had been the past few days; Noelle's forehead was pinched, Ollie kept casting worried glances at Noah and some sort of unreadable-probably-negative look at Roderick, and Noah looked tired, dark circles under his eyes and a beard that was beginning to look perhaps unkept. Tanya was eyeing all of them with some sort of goddamnit-how-am-I-stuck-with-these-people sort of expression that she somehow could exacerbate when the moment called for it.

Not helping was Mason, who appeared to be garnering grey hairs over Blue Ocean. Not for unjust reasons; they had just had two more hits by people with blue die dangling by their mirrors and the guy they got wouldn't crack. He knew nothing, he said, eyes wide and hands shaking. He knew nothing, could provide us nothing, he thought he wouldn't get caught. It was an interesting stream of words, one that made everyone feel as though something was wrong, that they had missed something crucial (they probably had).

By the time Roderick looked at his phone and realized he was late to meet Liddy Oakley, his eyes were watering from staring at the screen, he had watched Noelle and Tanya argue, genuinely argue over the information they had gotten from the suspect, Noah had gone to the bathroom and returned with red-rimmed eyes, and Ollie had disappeared and come back smelling like smoke at least three times that day. Mason, meanwhile, hadn't been seen since three in the afternoon, putting everyone on his team into a fouler and fouler mood as their in-charge didn't return. It turned out he was chasing down another lead and thought he had told everyone, but it turned out the message was still in his outbox, or whatever.

Needless to say, tensions were ratcheting up and Roderick was relieved to find Tacos Leo where it was supposed to be. They had only a few types of food; tacos al pastor and alambres al pastor, and they served them with a slice of pineapple from the spinning cutlet of meat that they used to fill their tacos. Hoping that Liddy actually liked Mexican food, Roderick ordered twenty, grateful that each was barely over a dollar in price, and scarfed down five while sitting in his car, having skipped lunch because something or another was on fire and he was needed to help analyze.

Finally making it to Liddy's at nearly an hour later than he intended, he finally sent an apologetic text message to Liddy that he was finally, finally there.

@Zeppy

Not an issue! I’m trying to gauge if we’d do well together, since there is some disparity in style, so I’ll have to think on it. I also would not like to overload on partners, since it would divide my attention and I’d like to give all my 1x1 people a good experience.

@FloatingInSpace

Ah, sorry for the misunderstanding! I’m not too fond of using the forums either, but it’s something I can work with, at the very least. I’ll keep your preferences in mind, though, even if they don’t wholly align with my own. (I’m more of a classic high fantasy/D&D vibe person)

Your writing’s quite nice! Though if I may comment, there is a pretty heavy prevalence with run-ons. It also sort of has a ‘density’ to it due to being laden with some descriptors that don’t flow too nicely sometimes, but hey, we can both improve together, I struggle with dialogue a lot.

Here is some of my own recent writing, done for RPs. Feel free to take a look and let me know what you think.

No biggy! If we can’t that’s totally fine c: I figured to shoot my shot!

Hi!
I'd say I fit your criteria!

I am, however, +9 FR time, but often awake very late, haha

High Fantasy sounds wonderful, been looking for that for a while c:
I have a few character concepts I can possibly use, so if you want to go write with me, I have plenty of choice!

I will sleep now, but I will be awake in a few more hours
