    Q & A The Skin You're In...

    I have no tattoos or piercings, aside from ears. Near my right shoulder, I have a birthmark surrounded by 22 freckles that resembles an atomic diagram for titanium. Although they eventually fade, I tend to have seam abrasions from wearing hazmat suits. Also, I have a few marks on my fingers...

    Open Carnival

    As the Palace’s opulent ballrooms and banquet halls reached a bacchanalian fullness, Colleen realized that the optimal time for her task had arrived early. Martini in hand, she coasted through the kaleidoscopic crowd inconspicuously. Rum and cachaça perfumed the central hall as people...

    Open [Introductory RP] Green Tea (緑茶)

    Colleen enjoyed her matcha tea while listening to each person's stories. She watched as the group gently pressed "Kitty" for conversation before speaking. "My name is Colleen Slate. I was born in Hong Kong and adopted at age three. I grew up with my adoptive family in a small New England...

    Open Carnival

    Although Colleen Slate wiped down the elevator button before pressing, her fear of social interaction at the sumptuous Magic Ball far outweighed any germ anxieties. The high-profile event was her first operation for ACME and she intended to display exceptional surveillance skills. Ordinarily...

    Open [Introductory RP] Green Tea (緑茶)

    Colleen's eyebrows raised at the pleasant surprise of the tea's fresh and slightly sweet taste. The internet cafés she frequented always offered an assortment of bitter, yellowed green teas that bore little resemblance to today's fine brew. She studied the intricate painting on her tea cup...

    Open [Introductory RP] Green Tea (緑茶)

    Smiling, Colleen thanked @Suhara and looked at the selection. The tray had a beautiful assortment of Monaka, wafers in the shapes of cherry blossoms and chrysanthemums sandwiching a sweetened azuki bean jam. Enjoying the flavor immensely, Colleen discreetly placed a few in a plastic bag from her...

    Open [Introductory RP] Green Tea (緑茶)

    Colleen Slate walked slowly across the pavement taking care to avoid the puddles. The leisurely pace allowed her to enjoy the humid air and view of the small and scenic gazebo. The tea ceremony provided her with the perfect excuse to wear the woven-cotton dress she had dyed with chlorophyll...

    Q & A Describe Your Morning Routine...

    I wake up around 4:30 AM and have "coffee" with breakfast. After yoga or a run, I do a quick sanitzing bleach with the kids (aka robots). Then, it's off to class. Weekends are much more relaxed: up at 4:40 AM and knitting instead of exercise. Sundays, I skip the sanitizing and do a little...

    ACME Spring Break

    Colleen stood for a moment, shaken by the whole scene. Everything had been going well. The Park Chalet resonated sounds of laughter and pleasant conversation. She had been enjoying her discussion with @Gudrun. A couple of ladies looked as though they might even brave the vegan pie. Suddenly...

    Q & A Your Character's Favorite Food(s), and how come?

    There's nothing like a phytoplankton custard to cheer me up. If I'm feeling indulgent, I add cinnamon. If on a romantic date, I'd add maca powder.

    ACME Spring Break

    Colleen felt the black dress to be a boring but strategic choice, as it would be most likely to conceal any food, drink, or antibacterial cleaner spills incurred during the event. She calmed her nerves with the knowledge that it would be an all-female party, which agreed with her unspoken...

    Q & A Your character's favorite color, and why?

    I like the Arctic silver of freshly cut sheet metal. *sighs*

    Not wanting to admit to knowing no one at this party to this charming gentleman, Colleen sifted the crowd with a quick glance. "Of course. I'm very good friends with that red-haired lady over there." she replied, pointing conspicuously. Her thoughts shifted back to the kiss of her hand...

    Colleen nodded in agreement, not entirely understanding the question. While glancing around the room, she noticed a small girl with conspicuously stuffed pockets. Pleased to discover another smuggler, she relaxed and returned her gaze to her intriguing new acquaintance. She extended her right...

    Colleen refrained from divulging her true thoughts, which were anchored to the fact that she was drinking a week before her 21st birthday. She took in the gentleman's exuberant attire and courtly manners. Searching for an adequate response, she raised her wine glass and tried to act natural...

    Colleen surveyed the room as she took a glass of wine. Feeling irritation from the duct tape, she was beginning to think the smuggled items may have been a misstep. She cautiously took a sip while squirming slightly.

    Ignoring the overwhelming scent of disinfectant, Colleen Slate studied the items on her bed. The shrill beep from her phone reminded her that is was time to go. She crammed as much into her new purse as she could and wondered if wearing two purses would strike people as odd. She quickly...

    @Lucy ... don't know if you really want wolf spiders in your home... I'd go for jumping spiders, they can't bite... wolf spiders are the fast movers, and they can bite.

    ((Will lose my ACP internet towards the end of the month, unless anyone knows about it ending sooner. Trying to switch my Lifeline phone to a better provider that doesn't shut me off after four and a half gigs of data, nothing but failure so far and "call here" and "it's on their end" and the back and forth crap... in the morning, it's time to demand the supervisor and might even get to harsh language (after three days of that). I plan to use the Lifeline phone tethered as Internet source, share that to my own router... I've done it before (it's messy, and not 100% effective, but it works). ))

    ((The 'net is the main way to apply for jobs now, so I need that, and I've moved/changed Lifeline providers before without an issue, so no idea what the problem is. I have active Verizon through ACP, active Lifeline through Airtalk... is that somehow the issue? If anyone knows, please let me know before I tear someone a new one (ya know what I mean). After three days of this, and two days about a month ago, I'm ready to walk there with katana in hand.))
