You discover, via some mystical but trustworthy source, that you will die in exactly five years' time. However, the gods are interceding and offer you a once-and-once-only Choice: If you win a coin toss, you will, instead, live for another thirty years. But if you lose... you will die in one month's time.
Would you take the gamble, and why or why not?
Heh!
Let me tell you something. I already have a trustworthy source, and even now I turn to Lorne for much needed guidance. I won't let him tell me my future however, because on two seprete occasions since I came here I sang for Lorne in regards to the life I was to have with the women I wanted to marry. Both times he raved about how awesome my path looked, and then both times my wives died. No; Lorne wasn't the problem, and it took me forever to reassure him of that. The entire system was the problem. The moment details of your path are revealed, the path changes. The cosmic scales of weights and balances are forever altered, allowing fate yet another chance to give you a good bitch-slapping. Lorne knows better than to give me a prediction like that, and I'd also tell the gods to take their ball and go home. |

I believe I would take my five years. If that is when I am supposed to go then it is fine.
Who am I to try and alter such a thing? |

Five years is a really terrible length...It's long enough that you'll actually want to do something, but too short to really accomplish much. I wouldn't want to get into a relationship, I wouldn't want to start any business ventures, I wouldn't want to do anything that required any kind of long-term comittment.
I wouldn't be able to just sit on my ass, though... But five years is too long to do the whole "go crazy do whatever I want" thing; I'd run out of money pretty quick.
I'd take the gamble. Five years is a crappy length of time. Either I get a life or I go out with a bang. |

Kale shows his playful side with his different animal forms that he morphs into. I think his golden retriever form shows his childish-ness. His playful side also tends to come out when he's trying to get something he wants. Kale believes he's simply being charming and witty, when really he's just playing a pity card with a bowl of playfulness on the side.
Cassie, on the other hand, is playful with her dialogue. When she speaks, she's usually smiling or laughing at some point; even in grim situations. In my mind, it's her putting on an act for people to not know her real emotions or fears. Cassie just believes it's her personality and finds nothing wrong with it.

Senri has a very teasing/flirty/mischievous personality and is always up for some fun -in fact, his favorite past time is teasing cute redheads boys. It can get him into a bit of trouble since not everyone is clued in to his special brand of humor and on more than a few occasions he's hurt some feelings (usually unintentional, but still). As with everything else Senri says, you have to weed through the delivery and take it all with a grain of salt.
Taiki, on the other hand, has a very dry sense of humor. He'll lightly tease those he feels comfortable with but generally jokes and humor are lost upon him; if you get anything beyond a polite smile at your attempt then you're doing quite well.

Mab is one of those delightful (and often hypocritical) people who compartmentalizes her personality in order to deal with her life. In other words, when she puts playful in it’s box in her mental shelf, anyone who tries to appeal to it will probably get a very unenjoyable response. Having her do this is relatively rare and normally a product of someone getting on her nerves.
( tl;dr-She's playful but sometimes that means killing people ) |

Derek is very playful by nature. He likes a good joke. He likes to laugh and have fun and tends to make light of a lot of things. It’s probably partly his way of keeping sane. His job is so serious and dark. He has an emotional roller-coaster of a past. And he isn’t Mr. share-a-lot when it comes to things that upset or bother him. So while he is a playful guy, a lot of times that playfulness can just be a cover-up for what he’s really feeling inside.
It’s a pretty interesting balance in both role play and writing him. What he shows people isn’t always what’s on the inside. I don’t dictate to him because he is his own character and his character is pretty darn stubborn. So when he wants to feel a certain way, I just go with it. And I think that it’s more fun anyway, letting the muse be the muse and just going where he/she/it takes you. Derek is Derek. He only uses me to get his words out. And usually he’s more playful than not and more light than dark, at least on the outside.

Well, Ambyr does have a sense of humor. It would depend on who she is around though because she is sometimes a little more serious and reserved for her age. If she is around family and people she cares about, she is much quicker to be humorous.
I as her writer am a little more careful with how much she uses it because her humor is slightly teasing/mischevious and both herself and I know it might offend if she pushes it too much. Teasing and taunting from all the other children as a child leave her slightly stunted about her own humor at times. She knows some jokes can really sting. Humor for her is a sign of comfort with those around her but she does enjoy laughing. |

Tonight, we wonder: How do you show the playful side of your character? Do they have one? Do they have their own ideas about how playful they are or aren't? How does that differ from what you have in mind? |

Meta. Brody is more likely to respond to a request for a playlist of angsty songs with "lol this is gay" and a joke about crawling in his skin. Like a lot of abused kids and sex workers, he prefers to shut down emotionally and derail with humour--emotional vulnerability is a luxury to people who can't afford to not be tough.

One. Seeing Stefan happy. That's just…just….unnatural. Buuuuut, killing someone he loves usually simmers him down back to his usual brooding "I hate my brother" self.
Two. Knowing Katherine is still down there, locked away. Working on that. Trust me. But it's easier to cope with when I imagine Stefan's face when I feed Elena to her.
Three. Four. Five. See number one.

Tori Amos, "Spark" ♬
she's convinced she could hold back the glaciers // but she couldn't keep baby alive // doubting if there's a woman in there somewhere // here, here, here // you say you don't want it again and again but you don't // don't really mean it // say you don't want it, the circus we're in but you don' t // don't really mean it
The Weepies, "Not Your Year" ♬
scattered shadows on a wall, you watch the long light fall // some impressions stay and some will fade // tattered shoes outside your door, clothes all on the floor // tour life feels like the morning after all year long // and every day it starts again // and you cannot say if you're happy // you keep trying to be // try harder, maybe // maybe this is not your year
Regina Spektor, "Samson" ♬
oh we couldn't bring the columns down // yeah we couldn't destroy a single one // and the history books forgot about us // and the bible didn't mention us // not even once // you are my sweetest downfall // I loved you first

It's finally happened. You were so careful. You planned for every possible outcome. And yet, here you are, caught in the act.
Tell us what the act is, and who you were with at the time (maybe ...Nobody did it). If you're feeling particularly brave, tell us what happens because you got caught.
Please remember to include the rp tag along with your character tag |
