I made a roleplay thread two days ago and it's gone down in flames now. So I suppose it's moving here, hooray. I'm a bit too lazy to do much besides say that I had a list of pairings I'd be willing to roleplay. I'll also be open to suggstions and the starred ones are the ones I really really wanna do at the moment. And the one with two stars is the one I most want to do because I have a character in my head and I already love him.
Rich Person x Poor Person
*Orchestra Conductor x Player*
Stand Partner x Stand Partner
Actor/Actress x Crew Member
**Royalty x Peasant**
*(Warriors)Warrior x Kittypet*
(Warriors)Leader x Rogue
(Warriors)Warrior x Different Clan Warrior
(Pokemon)Steven Stone x Cynthia
*(Pokemon)E4 Member x Rookie Trainer*
(Pokemon)Trainer x Rival
And maybe I'll add proper plots in later?

Ooh, thankee! I got a good character in mind for this. Mind if I take the royal? And this'll prolly be a medieval setting.
King Henry Bell - Male - 29 The king and queen before him, Henry's parents, died early, leaving the throne to their unwed son when he was only 25. Henry's done the best he can with this, ruling his kingdom with an iron and ruthless fist. He married a duchess for a little while, but she died of complications during the birth of their second child, and he hasn't yet remarried. Not a lot of people actually meet him, but those who do tend to not like him, as he comes off as an abrasive and rude man who cares for little more than the power he wields, even if he is inexplicably cheerful and upbeat most of the time. A few maintain that not even he can be such a horrible person deep down.

Well, that's for us to figure out. They can get caught up in an evil team's plot together, a bit like how you stormed the Rocket hideout with Lance in G/S/C and HG/SS? Or if you have another idea, lemme know.

Alright, we might be able to start with either Henry coming out to whatever village to seize their land or something, or maybe with a botched kidnapping that's the reason he's so far out in the country? And then your character helps him get back perhaps.

Sorry for being so poofy. I'll start soon.
And yeah, I would, Wiz. Do you have preferences on region and whether we use canon characters or OCs?

King Henry and his guard rode up to the village of Okan in quite an impressive manner. Banners emblazoned with the king's colors waving and bugles heralding their arrival. The king was a showy man, after all, and this was relatively tame compared to some other stunts he'd done earlier, when he was still a prince without the troubles of a whole kingdom on his shoulders. Normally he wouldn't accompany his herald to such a trivial matter as seizing land for military use, but he didn't get out to the furthest reaches of his kingdom often enough, and it was good to keep an eye on them occasionally.
They rode into the center of the village, and there were bugle calls and shouts and general hubbub as the villagers were gathered into the square to hear him speak.

Melanie had been quietly reading a book when she heard the bugles. The woman looked up from where her nose had been practically buried and she raised a brow. The king? What could he be doing all the way out here. She peeked out of her house and saw that everyone was being gathered around to listen to him. Great. Rolling her eyes a bit she put her book down and stood near the from of the edge off to the side with her arms folded neatly across her chest. Why did everything have to be so loud she was just trying to read her book in peace, why was the king here anyway he never came out this far. This didn't feel right.

( i usually prefer ocs over canon characters because i find it so difficult to write other people's characters, so if ocs are alright with you, that would be great. as for region, i don't mind at all, i'm least familiar with johto but otherwise i'm all good with anything really. )

OOC: Yeah, OCs are fine with me. Personally, I really like Sinnoh.
BIC: Henry watched the people's faces as his herald read the decree. Call him mean, but he did sort of want to savor their surprised expressions. The herald was making quite a show of it too, clearing his throat and sitting up straighter as he unfurled the scroll he didn't need.
"His Majesty, your king and ruler, King Henry Bell, has decreed that the houses and land the village of Okan resides on be seized for the use of His royal army. The Smith, Cooper, Weissman, and Reich families will be required to stay to farm the land but the rest will be relocated to other towns. The soldiers will come in a fortnight and everyone else should be gone by then."

Alright! As soon as we determine genders and roles and which starter we'll take(I honestly like and would be fine with any of Sinnoh starters, but Chimchar's my personal favorite) and what sort of rivalry this is(childhood rivals, like Blue, antagonist, like Silver, or friendly, like literally everyone else).

( i'd be fine with any of them too. piplup's my starter of choice, though, so maybe you take chimchar and i'll take piplup since they don't overlap? as for rivalry, something like Blue and Red had sounds like the most fun to write to me, but if you'd prefer something else i'd be fine with that. finally, genders and roles is something i don't really mind either way, so whichever you'd prefer is absolutely fine with me! )

Have I made it clear that I'm a horrible person who takes forever to respond? :P I usually respond at some point, though.
Okay, um, I usually prefer playing guys(I'm open to you playing a guy as well if you so choose), so I'll play...
Leo Bonny - Male - 15 Leo is generally pretty quiet and reserved, your typical emo teen, and isn't really a fan of Pokemon. They're wild beasts that could easily kill a human if they so chose. He's going on this journey somewhat reluctantly, mostly because his father was angry that Leo never left his home and safety behind when he was ten, kicked him out of the house, and told him to only come back when he had a couple badges. He's hyper-critical of other people's mistakes(and extremely ashamed of his own), and is a relatively smart cookie, even if he uses his common sense a bit too late. He's an impatient and violent person as well, far too likely to eventually get fed up with his Pokemon's initial weakness, walk into the battlefield, and start punching.

( nah, you're not a horrible person. it's totally fine. thanks for letting me know, though. and i think i might make my character a guy as well, if only because i don't have a girl prepared and i'm feeling lazy today (what else is new?). )
Beau Gale | Male | 16
Beau is a rather outgoing person, but he tends to try too hard to come off as mature and responsible so it often seems more like he's grouchy than anything else. He does love a good laugh, though, and if you bring up something he's particularly passionate about, all pretentions of a collected young adult fall away, leaving only the easily excited teen that he is. He grew up dreaming of battling, and he left for a year to do so as soon as he could. He's a forgiving guy, when it comes to himself, his pokémon and other people, but he's not the kind to forget. Though he's far from the sharpest knife in the drawer, he reads people and their intentions easily. A pessimistic guy, Beau thinks of himself as reckless since things were bound to turn out bad, but he's far from it. He has a little safe bubble and most of the time he sticks to it.

Okay then! Would you please start, Wiz?
Ahoy, Ni the knight who says, of course you can? Which role you want? I, personally, already have a characer for the rich guy, but I guess I could make one for the poor person if I had to.

The soldiers will come in a fortnight and everyone else should be gone by then." Mel listened as the King spoke, ignoring the murmurs beside her. She simply stood with her arms folded across her chest and her pale green gaze locked on him as he spoke. As he read off the names he face turned sour. She was going to have to move. Her last name had not been mentioned. Where was she going to go? The brown haired woman almost couldn't believe what was happening, just out of the blue uprooted from her home. This wasn't going to be fun. Why did they have to leave? Why would they pick this village of all the villages. It took all she had to not ask those questions and get herself in trouble, but it was clear on her face she was not happy at all.

Well, they could be just starting their journey and we could go through it all and build up their relationship slowly.
They could live in Twinleaf, Sandgem, or Jubilife and start by heading to the professor's lab, either seprately or together.

OOC: Yepperoni! I'm pretty lax on that, tho, just a little personality, maybe a little backstory.
Jasper Miles - Male - 27 Jasper is usually a pretty laid-back fellow, though he can get a little worked up and stressed out at times. He's clever enough with money and society, but street-wise, he's completely hopeless. He's a bit of a wimp too. He really loves horror movies, and horrible movies, and movies in general. He has some difficulties with sleeping. His parents both work in the medical field. His ex-wife's(from a shotgun wedding) name is Liz and he doesn't get along with her at all, and he also has a three-year-old daughter named Maureen from that marriage, though she lives with her mother and he doesn't get to see her too often.
BIC: Pleased with himself, Henry urged his horse to turn around, quietly ordering the herald next to him to stick around and deal with relocating everyone else. Most would head to similar villages amongst the empire, and the remainder would be moved to the castle town, where there was plenty of work to be done, including blacksmithing, serving him directly, or raw labor.

Okay!
Destiny Parker - Female - 25 Destiny is a simple girl who doesn't pay too much attention to details when it comes about her looks. Her hair is shoulder length, mousy brown, and has natural curls in it that tend to frizz more than curl. So she keeps her hair straightened so it doesn't get to out of hand. She also has blue-grey eyes, ivory skin that's lightly tanned (lightly because she doesn't get a lot of time out in the sun, and when she is outside, she can never seem to get tan anymore than she already is), and a fashion taste that would make most women cringe. Normally, Destiny walks out of her apartment in a T-shirt of some kind, jeans, and her favorite pair of Vans, when she isn't wearing her uniform for work, that is. It isn't because she's a tomboy, but it's because she doesn't see the point in dressing up for no reason at all. Destiny tries to be a polite and kind person when she's at the dinner she works at. She has to be, but has also made many friends out of the regular customers. Yet when she's not at work, she tends to keep to herself. The more stressed she is, the more she ignores the rest of the world. Destiny is also one of those people who are a bit skeptical on love. She isn't opposed to the idea, but she figures it's something that everyone else can chase after while she just focuses on getting her financial situation stable. Thus resulting in the girl only having a total of two boyfriends within her lifetime, both ending on bad notes.

OOC: I'm a buuuuuuttttt.
Alright, Night, do you have a plot/starting situation in mind?
BIC: Oh Melanie. Sweet, poor, innocent Melanie, how little you knew. With the king and several of their escort heading back towards home, it left the herald and the rest of the soldiers to let everyone know where they'd be going. One solider, a tall young man, headed up to Melanie and spoke: "name?" He was already scanning the list in his hand.
