☃️OOC:☃️ I've had a few of these before, but it's basically just a roleplay about a neighborhood, and I guess to make it easier, it's a jump in, just tell me the names and ages of your characters and I can put them up front. Here are my characters:
Watermelon's Characters: Keegan Quinn - 49 - male Kiandra "Kia" Quinn - 47 - female Kolette Quinn - 22 - female Katherynn "Kit" Quinn - 18 - female Kippur "Kip" Quinn - 18 - male Kacie Quinn - 18 - female Karlotta "Kirby" Quinn - 16 - female Kenneth Quinn - 15 - male Kalvin Quinn - 7 - male
Temma-Kati's Characters: Dante Belle-Rose - Male - 19 Jessamine Belle-Rose (Goes by Belle) - Female - 17 Nero Belle-Rose - Male - 17
Jingle Bones' Characters: James Brennan, 36, male Cadence "Cady" Brennan, 34, female Skylar Brennan, 16, female Sadie Brennan, 16, female Dixie, 4, female (canine)
Larksplash's Characters: Phillip "Lip" - male - 19 Cassandra "Cas" - female - 18
☃️IC:☃️ Starter Post:
"Ah yes, winter break," Kit said happily, holding the snow ball in her hand as she tossed it up before catching it a few times. "I say we enjoy it as best we can...wouldn't you two agree?" She asked as she looked over at her siblings, and instantly the other two of the set of three identical triplets nodded, matching sly grins on each of their faces. "In that case...let's do this," Kit told them before quickly throwing her snowball at top speed right at an unexpected younger sibling.
Kenneth got whacked right in the back of the head by the snowball and instantly yelped, tripped, and face planted into the snow with grace that the triplets surely hadn't seen in quite the long time. Instantly the three of them burst into laughter as the poor boy stumbled to his feet and turned to face them with a red, puffed up face. "Kit! That wasn't funny!"
As he scrambled to get a snowball to defend himself, the other Quinn children were also out and about. Kirby was using food dye to color the snow, because...well, why not? Meanwhile Kolette, who was staying with them over the holidays, was inside on the computer doing some sort of research, and of course young Kalvin was helping his mother bake cookies for the neighbors.
All in all, it was the perfect way to start of winter vacation.

Dante Belle-Rose - Male - 19 Jessamine Belle-Rose (Goes by Belle) - Female - 17 Nero Belle-Rose - Male - 17
DOwn the street came a low hum, a gorgeous black corvette sliding through the snow easily with prepped tires. Driving the new vehicle was Dante, the eldest of the three siblings that lived together down the rode from the Quinn's. The three had recently moved into the neighborhood from Italy, and all but one had the classic Italian appearance. With dark black hair and olive skin, Nero and Dante Belle-Rose had vivid blue eyes that hinted at a strange combination of ancestry. All three were lean and fit, dancers back in Italy. They had lost their parents a year before, but Dante had claimed gaurdianship over his young twin siblings as soon as he could, and brought them to America to escape the brutal treatment they recieved in Italy.
Dante parked the sleek car into the driveway, stepping out into the snowy light in a crisp black suit, the white undershirt stark against his tan skin. Nero stepped out of the passenger side in a pair of nice jeans and a button-up shirt, a leather chord around his neck holding a gleaming silver cross. And then, Belle emerged from the back. It was hard to tell that Nero and Belle were twins at first - with her shockingly fiery red hair, straight and thick to her mid-back, and warm caramel skin against his olive tone. However, once one saw how they mirrored each others body langauge flawlessly and mimicked each others expressions with practiced ease, it was clear that they were more alike than they first seemed.
Belle was also dressed differently from her brothers - a pair of black, tattered skinny jeans tucked into black leather combat boots, a wallet chain that bragged three silver crosses, and a studded belt threaded through the belt loops across her torso. She wore a snug PTV tank top under an unzipped leather jacket, the hood from the build-in liner lined with plush black fur. That wasnt it, still - while her brothers had shockingly blue eyes against dark skin, she had been a genetic mishap - heterochromia had one eye the same shocking blue, the other a deep brown/black. Both were lined with dramatic wings of black eyeliner and mascara.
"Belle, come along," Dante said over his shoulder as he locked the sleek car, reaching back to take his younger sisters arm. She looked away from the neighbors, her blue eye hidden behind a ragged fringe of shocking flame.colored hair. His rich italian accent rolled off his tongue like honey, his blue eyes soft as he looked at her. She said nothing, her eyes sad. Despite her rough appearance, her voice was soft like kitten fur as she said something in rolling italian. Her twin mimicked her sade face, putting his arm around her waist protectively. They exchanged accented italian for a few moments, then Dante seemed to give in, placing a hand on his little sisters head fondly before vanishing inside. Nero and Belle glanced at each other, then turned to cross the street. They picked their way over black ice and sheets of snow, Nero keeping an arm around his sisters waist. When they crossed the street, they both had friendly smiles on their face as they cautiouslyy approached the viscious snow fight.
"I don't believe we've met yet," Nero said, his warm voice flowing over the Quinn's like warm water. "I'm Nero, and this is Belle. We're new to the neighborhood - and the country, really," His lips quirked into a friendly smile again, his sister giving a shyer one as she returned the arm around his waist. With their posture so alike, it was clear as day that they were twins, even if their appearances were so strikingly different.

☃️OOC:☃️ Yay someone posted. Hi! :3
☃️IC:☃️ While the three triplets had been laughing joyfully, and poor Kenneth stumbling to get a snowball to actually take shape, none had noticed the newcomers until they had actually approached, which quickly snapped their attention back to the scene. Kit, being the leader of the triplets, was the first to speak as she grinned and held out her hand for either to shake. Now, while all the Quinn siblings looked strikingly similar, the triplets were identical. With both Kit and Kacie, the two girls, having long, raven black hair that hung down to their waists, sleek and straight, which was a rather nice contrast against their fair skin, and matching light blue eyes. It was hard to tell them apart, and of course Kip, the only boy out of the three, looked much like what one would imagine the two girls would if they were guys.
"Pleasure to meet you then," Kit started, pale blue gloved hand stretched outward. "I'm Kit, these two are Kip and Kacie, the boy over there struggling to make a snowball is our younger brother, Kenneth," she introduced happily before glancing back over at the house. Which was nice, big, and a pale yet bright yellow. "We're the Quinn's," she added and easily dodged out of the way once a snowball was finally hurled her way. With that she peered passed the two newcomers to look back over at Kenneth, who she stuck her tongue out at. "Missed Kenny, try again later," she suggested and the younger Quinn huffed, mumbled something about finding Kirby, and stalked off in a clearly still upset mood.
The three triplets were all dressed differently, Kit was in a nice, fleece, dark blue coat and some normal jeans, her feet were nicely covered up in long black boots, and a gray beanie rested on her head, then Kacie was wearing an outfit that mirrored her sister's, though of course in a variety of different shades of purple instead of the blue like Kit, and then Kip wore a warm black leather jacket, some gloves to match and had a nice pair of thin rimmed black glasses covering his light blue eyes. Along with that, the triplets all wore matching, clearly homemade, black and white striped scarves.

Pretty sure I recognize the Quinn siblings from somewhere
Anyway: James Brennan, 36, male Cadence "Cady" Brennan, 34, female Skylar Brennan, 16, female Sadie Brennan, 16, female Dixie, 4, female (canine)
Skylar hated the cold, with a passion that burned deep within her. Unfortunately, her twin did not seem to agree. The moment that Sadie had seen snow on the ground, she'd shaken Skylar awake and practically dragged her outside. She'd barely had time to grab her winter garb, put on her glasses, and whistle for Dixie before Sadie had her outside in the snow. Given the choice, Skylar would've turned around and gone straight back inside, but Sadie had a firm grip on her arm. The twins looked alike in every way: same shockingly ginger hair. Same oddly pretty sea foam eyes. The pair was identical down to the last freckle, except that Skylar wore glasses, while Sadie didn't, and Skylar always clung tightly to her service dog's leash. The pair made their way across the street, one excited, the other reluctant, in the direction of the Quinn house. Skylar could see two new faces already. She didn't want to talk to her rich new neighbors; talking led to awkward questions, questions she'd prefer not to answer. But Sadie had already made the decision for her, it seemed. "Hey, guys!" Sadie called cheerfully. "Hi, new neighbors!" Reaching the group, she paused, smiling cheerfully and still holding Skylar's wrist so she couldn't run away. Skylar just huddled behind Sadie, staring at the ground and hoping that the new people didn't try to talk to her.

Nero shook the young ladies hand, while Belle dipped her head respectfully. "We're the Belle-Roses - It's nice to finally meet you. Forgive us if we slip up, english is clearly not our first langauge," Nero dipped his head a bit apologetically, Belle mirroring the movement a split second later. "Belle is still studying, so she may be a little hesitant to speak yet." As Nero had spoken of his sister, he reached up and ran a hand through her hair absentmindedly, fondly - the two were clearly very, very close.
As Nero spoke, Dante had come back outside, dressed in a pair of nice jeans and a tidy sweater. He crossed the road carefully, picking his way over the ice and snow as he neared his younger siblings. Belle glanced over, her one visible eye blinking, and smiled as her older brother set a hand on her head fondly. "I hope my siblings arent being too up front," Dantes deep voice had a slight husk, a pleasurable sound. "They are less familiar with the culture here than myself." His english was much neater than Nero's, and Belle had a hard time understanding. "Belle, keep your hair from your face - no one minds your eyes here." Dante brushed his sisters fringe from her eye, revealing the vividly blue eye next to her deep black one. Cautiously, Belle glanced back over to the neighbors before lowering her gaze instinctively, hiding her eyes. Dante rested a hand on her head again, reassuringly, before reaching out to shake Kit's hand himself. "I'm Dante Belle-Rose, it nice to finally meet you face to face."

☃️IC:☃️ Kit shook her head. "Oh don't worry, it's nice to meet all of you," she assured Dante, slipping her hands into her coat pocket, nodding her head to Skylar and Sadie. "Hey," she greeted with a grin as she saw Kirby walk over with Kenneth following her, Kirby looked a lot like her siblings, however her hair was a bit of a lighter black and was far more fuzzy than straight and sleek like the triplets. So she usually kept it in two pigtails on either side of her head, put up with fluffy white scrunchies because her hair was too thick for normal elastics. She had dark blue eyes instead of light ones like the triplets and her face was dotted in freckles, to go along with that she was also more pale than her older siblings. She was in a bright pink coat that was lined with white faux fur, she was wearing what appeared to be plain gray jeans and fluffy white boots that matched her fuzzy white gloves perfectly. She had a scarf to match the others, and instead of a hat, instead she wore a pair of fuzzy pink and white earmuffs.
Kenneth, who trailed along after her, was a bit more tan than his siblings, and was rather average in height, with plain black hair and light brown eyes, he had a few freckles but not as much as Kirby did, and he was bundled up in layers and layers of clothes to keep warm. "Hey guys!" Kirby greeted with a happy grin. "Kenny told me you were meeting the new neighbors, so I abandoned making the snow more colorful to come see!" She explained happily before looked passed her siblings, first smiling over at Skylab and Sadie. "Hi! Enjoying the snow too?" She questioned them before looking to the three newcomers. "And you three must be our new neighbors, well it's nice to meet you. I'm Kirby Quinn...okay technically I'm Karlotta Quinn but Karlotta is way too fancy for me, so Kirby it is," she explained, rambling slightly.

Lip shoved one hand in his pockets as the cold wind made his ice cold fingers even worse. His other hand held a lip cigarette as he made his way down the street. He could see people crowding around the Quinn's house. The tip of his nose had turn a shade of red from the cold. Slowly making his way to the Quinn's house, he came to a stop. "Is there a part going on or something?" he asked with just the faintest of grins.

☃️IC:☃️ Kacie looked over at Lip and grinned. "Please, when I'm around, there's always a party going on," she joked, since Kit and Kirby were talking talking to everyone else, Kenneth was there sulking, and of course Kip had that look on his face like he was planning something, though when wasn't he? The gears were always turning in his head. "Nah we're just out here, talking. Personally I'd rather get back to whacking people with snowballs, but eh, guess we're saving that for later," she added with a small shrug.

Taking a drag of his cigarette, Lip gave a smile at Kacie's remark. "Oh, I bet that's true," he spoke blowing out the smoke from his lungs. He has seen Kacie around the neighborhood, she was an attractive female and it was nice to actually meet the girl with the pretty face. "Name Lip. Well Philip but I go by Lip," he said extending his hand. 𝕊’𝕞𝕠𝕣𝕖

☃️IC:☃️ "I'm Kacie, it's sorta funny how few people I actually really talk to in this neighborhood, nice to actually meet you Lip," she told him with a smirk. The problem with the Quinn's, all of them really, was that while they weren't anti social, and they socialized enough with a select few, however they also liked to keep to themselves...they didn't usually attend neighborhood parties or such, so it was no surprise that they didn't know everyone in the neighborhood, even after living there for a few years.

The sight of Kenneth and Kirby was enough to make Skylar relax a bit. The two of them were the closest to her age, and she knew them a bit better than the rest of the Quinns. She edged in their direction, glancing over at Lip with a bit of a guarded expression.
Sadie, on the other hand, was a bit more open. "Lip's a cool name," she complimented him brightly. "I'm Sadie, and this chatterbox is Skylar. It's nice to meet you."

☃️IC:☃️ Kirby glanced from Sadie, to Skylar, to Kenneth before figuring maybe it would be a good idea to split up the big group. "Well it was nice to meet all of you but I have snow to decorate, did anyone want to come?" She asked with a grin as she looked over at the group. By now anyone who knew Kirby would know that she rather enjoyed thinking outside the box and experimenting on just about anything so you can bet she would have odd colored snow on a list of stuff to do. Kenneth instantly nodded along, he got along best with Kirby, though he didn't have a very good relationship with any of other siblings anyways.

(Sorry for the poof! I had to drive home. :) )
Belle looked utterly lost by this point, with so many english-speakers around her. Dante had an amused look on his olive-tan face, his flack hair rustled by a chilly breeze as he absentmindedly let his hand rest on his younger sisters shoulder. Nero listened in casually, his hands tucked into the pocket of his jeans. "It was a pleasure meeting the neighborhood, but I do believe my sister is about to explode. We are not native Americans, and Belle here has some issues with english yet." Dante smooth voice glided through the crowd easily, tucking his arm over Belles slim shoulder and brushing some hair behind her ear again, revealing her mismatched eyes - Brilliant pale blue, and nearly jet black for the other. "Nero, Belle-" lovely Italian slipped over his tongue tot he twins, who looked up at him - Nero with mild interest, Belle with relief. Nero took Belles hand in his and tugged her across the street, chattering away to his twin sister in rapid Italian. Dante followed after glancing at the crowd casually. "It was a pleasure, but I should be getting back to my siblings. Belle and I have some stunning of English to do," With a quirk of a grin, he himself waltzed across the street, his strong, lithe form easily adjusting over slippery ice and gritty snow.

☃️OOC:☃️ It fine.
☃️IC:☃️ Finally Kip spoke up, though not in English but in Italian, he simply welcomed them all to the country and hoped they had a good time, but he was more than happy to say all that in Italian. Unlike his siblings-well, not counting Kolette, he quite enjoyed learning other languages, much like his mother, who had been teaching him how to speak in Italian, Japanese, French, and German since he was little. Knowing that a bunch of English might worry someone who didn't know it quite as well, he was more than happy to speak in a language more comfortable to them.
Kit glanced over at Kip, not understanding a lick of what he said but figuring it was something good, she nodded and folded her arms as she looked over at the three. "What he said, also feel free to stop by any time, I bet mom and dad would love to meet you guys, Kookie too sometime," she explained with a smile, which Kip quickly mirrored.

Hearing the fluent Italian from the neighbor, Belle suddenly stopped one step onto the street, pulling her hand from her twins, who looked back just as curiously but stayed put. "I'm sorry if this comes off as rude, I am just curious. Where did you learn to speak our language so flawlessly?" She asked curiously in Italian, her brighter-than-average fiery red hair catching and melting flakes of white snow. Dante had already vanished inside their home, and Nero tugged on his sisters sleeve. She shot him a look, and the two seemed to have a silent conversation within a split seond, expressions saying everything. Nero lifted one shoulder and came back, putting his arm around his sisters waist once more, protectively. He said nothing, simply listened to the conversation silently.

☃️IC:☃️ Kip smiled slightly, placing his hands in his coat pocket. "My mother taught me, along with quite a few other languages as well, I have been speaking more languages than just English for most of my life," he replied with ease, bringing one hand up to push his glasses back up the bridge of his nose as they had started to slide down his long nose. It was a bit big, his siblings made fun of it. However it seemed to go well with his looks and didn't look out of place for him. Now of course while he was talking, Kit was watching with a small frown on her face, arms folded as she observed her brother speak. Yeah he had always found time to practice, however Kit preferred to speak good old English, other language were too confusing. She would prefer to stick with what she knew...but she also didn't exactly like not knowing what they were talking about. Kip had a smug look on his face though...so he was probably bragging or something.

"I'll come along," Sadie offered, beaming. She didn't know what "decorating the snow" meant, but whatever it was, it sounded fun.
Skylar brightened at Kirby's offer. Unlike her sister, she did know what that meant, and maybe she could have a bit of fun and make being out in the freezing snow worthwile. "Sure," she said, with the slightest of smiles.
Bleh I have work, so I'm gonna be poofy x.x))

Belle tipped her head to the side, a spark of interest in her heterochromia-struck eyes. "How unusual. Nero and I speak only one language fluently - well, he speaks three, I am stuck with Italian for the time being." Nero pulled Belle closer to him, his arm around her waist tightening slightly. In responce, Belle put her arm around her brothers waist reassuringly . Nero kept a cool expression over his face, but his piercing blue eyes flickered over to Kit. He broke into an amused smile, knowing that expression well. Belle had it all the time. "They are discussing language, that is all. Belle is sometimes a bit too curious for her own good." "I understood three words, and screw you," his sister said in italian without sparing her brother a glance, prodding his side with her hand to emphasize her words. Nero simply smirked.
"Your name is Kip, no?" Nero asked out of the blue, his eyes flicking back to boy only a year older than he and his twin sister. "With no offense to our elder brother, he is a poor tutor in foreign language. Would you mind taking over a few hours a week to help Belle? School will be back soon, and se ha s yet to know more than the basics." His voice held a smoothness, a cheeky tone, that had Belles pleasant smile faltering for a moment to give her brother a cautious look. After she had witnessed their parents death by her own, alone in the hospital room, she had attatchment issues to family. A few hours without being with her brothers would have her heart beating with panic.
