Yo)
Justin hummed softly as he makes his way down the street. He glanced back and forth wary in case someone was going to try to attack him. So far everything was okay.
Caspian smirked as he watched Caspian dangling a certain businessman out his his window. "Sooo do we have a deal Mr Wingston?" He asked his voice sickeningly sweet. The man shivered in fear and scrambled trying to get away. "Y-Yes please don't let me die!"
Maria whistled as she makes her way out of the Starbucks.

Wow that was surprisingly inspiring. True though, I need to stop being a wimp. Mind you, it's a daily struggle to answer the telephone for me so starting up in a new RP is almost just as hard Ok here we goooooo... Oh and it depends on what you mean by 'pause time', both sound cool, but the ability to pause time sounds overpowered? That's just what it comes across as without a description.) Ferret glared darkly out at the world from under her fringe. Seated at a small table on a dainty chair just inside The Regulars, the mindless chatter and gossip of civilians echoed in her ears and was beginning to annoy her. She cast a grumpy glance at a particularly loud couple at the table next to her. Maybe this is why people become villains, she thought. What I wouldn't give to have a team of people to annihilate those two with.Good god she sounds violent already) Okay I made another character because 1: I watched a movie and got obsessed with a guy that wa totally awesome and wanted to make a character based off him and 2: I am very OCD and I want to keep my character genders even) Griffin Patmore / 17 / Male / Griffin has light brownish, reddish-auburn hair that falls slightly past the tops of his ears in a wavy, tangled mess, slightly covering his dark chocolate eyes. A soft fuzz of facial hair, barely visible, hugs his chin and jawline, a slightly lighter shade of his hair, blending into his faintly tanned skin. His preferred outfit is a black shirt, a black leather jacket and brown leather belt with black jeans and sneakers. He also carries a dark leather satchel over his shoulder, which, like I said, is where he keeps photos of his Jumping Sites. Griffin is stubborn, rude, secretive, sarcastic, and couldn’t give less of a crap about other people's problems. He has a real sailor's mouth (I will replace all of his rude words with [curse]) and when other people complain about it to him, he’ll either give them a ruge gesture or ask them “If you would kindly realise I don’t give a [curse], you could maybe… I don’t know… [CURSE] OFF?”. Griffin has a heavy Scottish accent, but speaks clear english, especially when he’s trying to tell someone something (Usually asking them to [curse] off in a not-so-polite manner) or he’s extremely frustrated or angry. He carries a plain wooden baseball bat wherever he goes, and can tuck it into his belt when he doesn’t need it. / Griffin can teleport anywhere he wants just by looking at the place he wants to go and thinking about it. He calls it jumping, and he carries lots of photos of places around the world (‘Jumping Sites’, as he says in his satchel, but he only goes there if he needs to./ Back at his hometown in Scotland, everyone was very superstitious (Excluding him, a firm Atheist and realist), so he was kicked out when it was discovered he was left handed (apparently a sign of ‘evil spirits, demons and witchcraft!’ according to the foolish priest) and his parents had been hiding it to protect him. They were allowed to stay in the town, for being ‘only blind and foolish’ (once again, according to the priest), but Griffin was thrown into the wilderness at only age ten, thankfully he’d discovered his power at the age of five and knew how to use it, otherwise he would’ve died. He decided to stay in the city because he loves a bit of chaos, and he knows he can just leave whenever he wants. He's neutral, but he's such a butthead he'll probably become a villain at some point. / Leap Yes, I based him off Griffin from the movie ‘Jumper’ because GRIFFIN DID NOT GET WHAT HE DESERVED I LOVED HIM BUT EVERYONE ELSE HATED HIM SO I HAVE RESURRECTED HIM. )

I tend to do that with people. I understand, I do. But as I've been learning and trying to work with, if you don't move out of that you'll never go anywhere. As hard as it is to do, but you can always take baby strps.
Curious question, uh, so what does being OCD have to do with even character genders?)
Everett was heading out of his work building for a lunch break, not really paying attention because he was busy talking to a particularly large spider. And so it caused him to bump right into Justin and scramble to keep his spider friend safe. "Sorry, sorry, so sorry," he quickly stated before looking down at Justin,"oh, and I'm sorry to you too. I should have eatched where I was going, my bad," he offered a small smile until realizing that Justin couldn't see it because if his bandana. "Oh!" The realization hit him,"um, your name's Justin right?"

(It isn't overpowered, if anything it's underpowered. When I first thought of her, I considered combining it with ice powers and then realized it was too much. I'm being lazy and not porting over the description of her powers. I base a lot of my characters off of powers from the tv show the Flash.
Overall she can't really fight beyond using her powers, and because I haven't really been able to develop her, she doesn't really know they exist.)

Justin blinked and nodded his head. "Yeah that's me. You are the spider guy right?" He said unsure of his name. Justin knew him from the tryouts.

It means everything has to be perfect and even and things like uneven hoodie strings and crooked paintings on the wall give me cancer (Not literally, but you know what I mean), so unless I have too many characters that I can be bothered to count, I have even genders. Okay, I see what you mean, I just saw it as the ability to freeze time, making everyone else stop, but she could move freely, giving her the chance to do anything she wanted and nobody would be able to stop her, which seemed to me overpowered, but I get it now. I think ice powers with a personality disorder sounds coolest though.)

{Even then, it's really not pausing time, it's more like slowing down to almost a stop even for a speedster. I haven't even typed that one out....
You have the basic idea, I think with time, she'd be able to slow down certain people for a short bit. But the original idea came from a villain called Turtle. Have to develop both girls. }

Now my follow up question, just, please don't hate me. I'm curious. Um, sooo, why do you feel the need to have those be perfect? Just out of curiousity)

OKay, well, I'd like to explain that that's not OCD. That's just like, perfectionism and preference and the like. OCD has nothing to do with evenness and like, perfect things and the like. Which is why I asked, because if there was a legit reason for it, then yeah I could see it as being like having OCD. See, I could never understand even genders? Like, I get it because most people only use girls and such, but like, there aren't even genders in the world so I just, can never understand)

I mean my obsession is having things perfect and even etc, so I'm constantly trying to keep things (even the tiniest, most insignificant things) in order. OCD is just obsessions and compulsions people have (Usually a more intense obsession than the obsession some people have over celebs and stuff like that). But yeah, I agree with you that there aren't even genders in the world, but maybe they just don't want their roleplay to be, for example, fifteen girls and two boys. I usually just prefer people keep it at least at a ratio of around 3/4:1, so it doesn't end up like that, and I always feel obliged to make my characters genders even, unless I see that there's way too many girls, so then I make a few extra boys. I find guys easier to roleplay because people just seem to have so may expectations for female characters, like, I can't explain it but I seem to be able to roleplay more freely with male characters, and usually they're more fun. And I find I have the same problem as you, Ram. I have two girls that I use all the time, but if I try make another, they end up being either almost exactly the some, or a total cliche.)

Because you make me that way silly duck. Maybe you're just a behind the scenes sassy person eh, eh?
It is too late at night and I have been too stressed lately to have this conversation at this point. Do you blame them though. Because than at that point, all 15 of those girls suddenly turn into thirsty, vampire like chicks who all want the same men, even if they aren't compatible in the slightest bit. I have three different personality types for each girl, so I'm pretty content with what I have, they're diverse and different, but I don't have multiples so eh)

It was nice knowing you friend, nice knowing you. We'll stop your evil twin for you. Maybe, I dunno, I'll have to see if my schedule is booked
I've seen it since...when was I in middle school, oh gosh....ummmm, like 2007-09?? Something like that, and it just, never appealed to me and now that I've grown up it super doesn't appeal? Like, I'll have this urge, ngl, where I'll go "I wanna just a simple, cliche rp" kind of deal, but never promise my character will actually develop feelings. I'm not going to force them, even if it is the plot or main thing)

I had someone get mad at me once because I specified that my character didn't like girls, and was attracted to males. And she made a female character and constantly tried to get them together. And so I made him react accordingly and like, they got mad at me because he wouldn't like their character back. And I was like "but um, I told you? And like, it's stated in the actual thread that there is no guarantee, and in his form how he feels about girls so?")

No, see, my luck, I always get stuck with crazy no chill freaking people. And I go through the craziest of stuff, and it's just so freaking baffling because like, how come I can't get chill people to rp with? Like one time I was rping with someone and was using my demon Lackland, and he can't be killed by human weapons, injured yes, but not killed. However, holy or blessed weapons are a sure fire way to get him killed really fast. And so like, the other person's character was this 21 year old who apparently ran a massive, world wide crime syndicate and was the most intelligent human being on the planet and had all these body guards and then apparently was arrested by cops but not thrown in jail and all this other stuff that didn't add up. And their character threatened Lackland, saying that he was going to have his snipers shoot and kill him, and Lackland, being the arrogant demon he was, told him he would like to see him try and that he wouldn't die, though he wouldn't enjoy the painful experience. And they pmed me going "um, you're god modding" UM? In his form it listed all the ways he can be killed and injured, and that man made weapons like bullets were not something that could kill him unless they were blessed. And that he could still be injured, and he even admits it whenever he's used that yes, he feels pain and yes being shot still injures him, it just won't kill him. And yet their character survived like 30 assassination attempts on their life, and like was the most wanted man in the world and all this stuff and I'm thinking "I'm only 19 (at the time) and like, I've only had one car accident. There is no way this guy has done all this stuff and can do all these things and never misses a shot, or never gets hit" and so yeah, I quit that in a heartbeat)

I'm not perfect, I'm not, I make mistakes rping all the time and I learn from them so I can constantly better my experience. And not all my demons are like that, like Cameron and Grim can die by human weapons, but my demons like Lackland and Fiasco cannot, they have to be blessed. And just, it's so frustrating and aggravating and I'm sorry for ranting but just, AH. And then a few weeks ago they pmed me like "hey, wanna rp?" Um...no?)
