I swore to myself that I was not going to do this. I told myself that now I'm getting my foreign language requirement out of the way, I should be cutting back and taking more time to study. But sitting here in my campus library (trying to ignore the smell of goat curry coming from a table or two away, tempting my empty stomach with it's sweet goaty-curry goodness) I've had a moment to take a good look over my syllabi (seeing that I have four and a half days off a week) have more time than I first thought. And looking back over the comm, I've decided I'm not as active as I should be (which means I've been leaning on Poppy and Jade too much and need to get something moving myself), so I'm throwing my kiddies out there.
joiedevivre Olivia Blake - The youngest Blake and the only daughter. She's sweet and adorable, never an unkind word or thought about anyone. She's gone and fallen in love, or at least she believes it to be love (it would be news to her if it wasn't), with another girl but is still so very unsure about love and sexuality, but She does tend to fall into crushes now and then (currently: Charlot Abraham, whom she has only recently discovered is having an affair with her brother Christopher, but she does not seem to care. And Jacques Belmont, whom she only met once but is quite taken with his idealism and charming good looks). She's truly open for anything.
mizslater Cordelia 'Delia' Slater - She's the exact opposite of Olivia in every way. The most frequent thing she is called is 'bitch' and she finds that very fitting, wearing it like a badge of honor. There are three things in this world she hates more than anything: Her mother, Harry Fisher and Vivian Thorpe. All of which she would give her left arm to see remove. She's usually just looking for a good time, especially if she can hurt someone or gain from it. Currently she is in search of a wealthy and or titled husband, at her father's urging, and can actually manage to hide her ugly traits long enough for a man to become interested in her. But for the moment that is taking a backseat to the situation between her father and Harry, she would like nothing more than to hurt the man in some way but her father keeps insisting that she stay out of it (obviously she finds ways around his insistence). She is such a little sadist, in both physical and emotional senses, so only send your characters her way if you are as much of a sadist as she is.
rakehell Antony Blackwood, Earl of Gourock - Oh Antony, I don't think I have to say much about him. Painter. Loves the nude female form. Loves all women (he could even love Louisa if she lightened up a bit and he wasn't so afraid of her. Always looking for lovers models to pose for him, and this usually gets him into trouble, not that he minds that as long as he gets what he wants and he only wants to make women feel good about themselves. Right now he's looking for a wife who would be able to tolerate him. Also, he would love it if someone would take up the role of the fake Callum Young, the actor he pays to play the artist so he may paint in peace and still have a decent reputation.
Anyway, that's all from me. Plot ideas or questions welcome, comment here or you can reach me on AIM @ Caputlupinum. Love you all, now I must be off to French.
