so fresh!

Hi all! The name's Allie, and I'm completely new here to Marina, although I've actually been admiring this game from afar for a while...okay that just sounds sort of creepy but anyway, I finally was motivated to actually apply, and what do you know! Here I am. I'll be playing this dude here, Soubi Agatsuma from that manga where everyone but him has cat ears, Loveless. He's kind of rude and not really good at being social, but pester him enough and he may just give in and actually befriend you--or at least tolerate you. His life is basically devoted to doing whatever this one kid called Ritsuka tells him to--and a lot of times, even things he doesn't tell him to--and he's totally (creepily) cool with that. But in his free time, he's an art student concentrating on traditional Japanese painting, so you might see him doing some of that.

As far as contacts go, my plurk is lelait and my aim is le_lait and anyone and everyone should add me on either or both!

I'M SO HAPPY TO BE HERE YOU GUYS.

intro!

Hello Marina! My name's coffee and I was just accepted with this guy here. His name's Roy Harper aka Arsenal, formerly known as Speedy. He's from DC Comics' New 52 reboot and was the previous sidekick of Green Arrow.

That having been said, Roy's basically a big dumb puppy recovering from alcoholism, probably drug addiction, and definitely the superhero life. He's aimless despite being an awesome archer and sweet despite being a total loser.

I can be contacted on AIM ar xXbananarchyXx or via pm on this journal. I can't wait to get him into shenanigans.

Oh, as a side note...I am currently on my phone and in and out at work so I apologize for typos or slow replies!

Hi guys!

As some of you know via my Plurk, I've recently started a new job that is a little bit of a learning experience for me, so my free time during the day is all but zapped for the next few weeks.

Add to that the fact that my wedding is coming up on March 17th, my activity is going to be a bit spotty this month.

So while I'm going to do my best to respond to tags I have and try to start up some new things if time is willing, I'm going to go ahead and declare a hiatus for the month of February. Hopefully I'll come back early, but I don't want to get in any trouble because I'm not as active as I should be.

Thanks for understanding, everyone, and I hope to see you soon!

WE INTERRUPT THIS REGULARLY-SCHEDULED INTRO INNUNDATION
06 February 2012 at 11:15 pm
for a special announcement: I'm leaving for Hokkaido tomorrow night Japan time, ON A BOAT, to go to Yuki Matsuri! I'll be back on Saturday evening, but that's still like a business week without any internet, and, thus, no Marina.

Not that it's like a massive deal, but I figured it's polite to put it out there! I'll throw a couple pictures up on the Monday meme when I get back! Welcome to all the new players, and I hope everyone has a good Newbie Week; I'll tag around once I'm back off that crazy snowy cow-covered island.

This hiatus effects:
