I haven’t had access to the computer, however I should be back tomorrow. My eye should be better after a good rest too.

sorry I didn’t post yesterday ^^ I had some family friends over and couldn’t get to my computer, I’m also going to be busy today until the afternoon. Roughly 4:00pm pst is when I’ll probably post :>

I'm on vacation so I won't be posting for a few days.

[MothAndMoss]

Agh! Stupid allergies and stomach pain. I'll post tomorrow.

(I've sneezed on my phone more times than an average human should. XD)

Well, at least everybody's absences are in sync. XD

This gives me a chance to properly answer the previous question:
Does your character have any personality traits that come directly from you/Is the character basically you in a different body?

- Nicole loves to write. It's one of her major personality traits. She takes everything as inspiration for a story, even if you shove a serial killer in front of her.
- Acacia is highly determined and calm under pressure, a steadfast protector. She's also physically based off me. When I sketch her, I use pictures of my own figure as a direct reference (while sketching others would need to have edited proportions). She also has the deep tenor/baritone voice.
- Hazel and Hickory resemble my teenage selves. Hazel being the earlier iteration, and Hickory being more like myself as I began to mature. They have similar strengths and weaknesses as myself.
- Hemlock & Vincent are pretty much the opposite of me, but they are tiny scrawny wimps like my brother. I hope he reads this.

Note about Acacia's voice:
It isn't simply a "deep for a girl" (alto or contralto) voice. Imagine your typical "deep for a girl" voice and make it an entire octave lower. Or, imagine the voice of a grown man... and make THAT a little lower.
As a teenager, I was very self conscious about my voice. Even now I get comments from grown men about how my voice is deeper than theirs! These comments do not come from scrawny dudes with "high for a guy" voices, no, these comments come from bulky guys who have genuinely manly voices.
I have learned to be comfortable with my voice and to appreciate it for what it is. And instead of feeling embarrassed about it, I'll happily laugh about my voice WITH people who think it's ridiculous. XD

A little story about why Acacia has my voice pitch. I can actually extend to nearly the lowest bass note (bass is like a Darth Vader voice) but let's not go that far.

Speaking of absences, guess who's going out-of-country for two weeks! Me, that's who! I'm going to have access to internet and I'll have my computer with me, but I'll be busy exploring with my classmates (it's a school-sponsored trip) and going to a Model United Nations conference which will leave me very little time to roleplay. Hopefully, I'll be able to get out a post or two, but if not, see ya'll in March!

[MothAndMoss]

After being dead for a few days I'm back! I'm going to reply to every roleplay either today or tomorrow depending on how the day goes and if I don't get randomly busy today.

[Pistol Annie #1 NPC]

Sounds great! It seems to be a busy time for most roleplayers, so I understand the slow pace in this RP. :)

[passione]

I— Mom... I'm sorry to say, but i'm not actually busy aside from the three projects i'm putting off rn...

I've been so invested in BTS that I just completely forgot that roleplaying existed.
These seven men are killing my schedule. I'm up until 4am watching stupid compilations.
I can't stop. I have a problem. Mother. Send me help. I can't stop.

[Pistol Annie #1 NPC]

Here is help from Mother Solara, aka the sun deity in this roleplay:
Are you in need of a hug, my child?
... There, there...
You are a good child.

Don't worry about it. :)
