Note: This is a co-written journal with @Nace Bilby -- originally meant to be a post for a Halloween Party RP. It takes place several months after the Rio Carnival, when the two characters are in a more steady relationship.

---​

Nace Bilby had no idea his jaw was figuratively about to hit the floor when he parked the jeep in the parking lot of Molly’s apartment complex. He had chosen to go as a 1930s era explorer, wearing khakis with a vaguely military air to them, but harkening back to the film, the Mummy in terms of appearance and function.

He had gone up the steps and lightly rapped on Molly’s door. And it would be when he laid eyes on her Halloween Costume that was the moment it happened.

Although Molly knew exactly what Nace was going to wear to the party, it took her weeks to find the right complimentary costume. Like anyone in a new relationship she wanted to impress her boyfriend, and if fiction served as a good reference point, there was nothing that would catch a desert explorer’s eye more than a mysterious belly dancer.

Opening the door, she gave a theatrical bow. The dark purple dress shifted around her, and a few gold sparkles caught the light. With a classic move, she swayed her hips in opposition to her shoulders.

“I’ve been waiting for you, Mr. Bilby,” she flirted from under a thin veil, then smiled. “Come to save me from the evil Sultan?”


It was as she answered the door that Nace’s jaw practically hit the ground. He managed to nod his head. My God she looks amazing.

Nace’s eyes took in his girlfriend in her costume. The thing she had been oh-so-secretive about till All Hallow’s Eve. Her hair was up in a high ponytail, her top consisted of well more than a sparkly bra in purple, but still was enough to be enticing. And a layered skirt covered her legs.

She did a full turn, in a graceful billow of skirts and veils. Throughout that time Nace was virtually speechless.

Getting the reaction she wanted, Molly paused to look Nace over. She reached up and removed his hat to catch a glimpse of his eyes, at the same time she pressed the tip of her index finger under his chin to close his jaw.

“Going to stick with the strong, silent hero archetype then?”


Nace smiled, “Well, I’ll say the captive courtesan of the evil Sultan does have quite an entrancing look about her.”

He smiled and said, “And yes, I’ve come to save you from the evil Sultan...you needn’t be part of his harem any longer.”

He had seen the paperback Molly had on her shelf the last time he’d been over and even read a few pages into it. All about the adventures of a young woman who had fallen into the clutches of an evil Sultan in 1930s era Egypt. Barring the obvious historical inaccuracies Molly clearly seemed to enjoy the book.

“Lovely costume inspired by a favorite book, I must say.” Nace grinned.

“I’m glad you like it,” Molly returned the hat to its owner, then pulled him into a kiss. “Now come along, explorer. We’re going to be late for a party.”

Nace kissed her, closing his eyes, pulling her close to him, his arms around her waist, hands converging at the small of her back as he pulled her against him.

@Eugene @Lee always buys the scented ones just for that reason. He tasted them once because he thought they tasted like they smelled but was rather surprised when they didn't taste right.

    ((OOC: So, I am still here (at least, while ACP is still a thing, then I have to tether my phone to my laptop, send it's internet to Ethernet to my router and setup my other laptop to access that... I managed it once totally by accident)... updating stuff I'm working on is not a fun process (if anyone checks my stories folder on my Google Drive) anymore... the laptop at my desk is old (Core 2 Duo, 2Ghz, 4 gigs RAM, Win7 Ultimate)... Chrome won't update, Drive won't work... I'm stuck using FreeFileSync to keep stuff up to datep things synced. I have plans of getting a job and having money to have something better (a doorstop is better)

    [continuing] I'm sorry if any of my posts are/could be inflammatory or anything... some of them are stuff I've had in the pipeline for a while, and I messed with it enough to get it postable... that's why there are dates showing when I started working on stuff... I'm not, and never have been, trying to step on anyone's toes or say "this is how it should be"... I have no say here, not sure who does these days (like I posted... maybe this is a test to see if we devolve into chaos). Posts like Hierarchy were started long ago, and meant as a guideline and not because I'm the voice of Sauron.

    [continuing] I don't have the time to be here a whole lot, I don't have much beyond mom to help with my rent (and once I have a job, that'll take up more time, though I will keep working on stuff (both for here and not) as often as possible, and post when possible on here. I have a question that needs some clarification... being that we are supposed to get permission from the person if we use their character in an addition/story/post, how would that apply if the character is core to the universe (like Carmen... I can replace @Chase, maybe cobble someone into @Ivy's place... but, like @Carmen, being that she's a major character, as long as I don't have her acting or write a major part for her, would that circumvent the rule at all?

    [continuing] I'm just curious... the absence of the major's leaves a gap that I'm not sure what to do with anything... we (the Left Behind) could do a story together (or some stories separate), and that'd be cool, but without being able to use any major's, I'm not sure where to take anything. And, yeah... you can probably guess what my typing is like here (or anyplace else)... I type here or in Word, I type something (or notepad), and 15-20+ seconds later it shows up, so I have to stay on top of my grammar and spelling. I have to keep on top of all that, because I'm working on the big Carmen story at the same time, so I can't slip off my game.))

    @Jon Eckart Not exactly sure if I understand all your computer probs. I hope you get those resolved soon. Yes, I have many probs with my basic Google Chrome, too. I think it's fair to say we all have a love/hate relationship with technology. 😆 As far as your stories are concerned, you can use any cannon character you like, whether there is a person playing that role on here or not. Say the story is a fanfiction; and that the version of Chase, or Carmen (or whoever) from the computer games, gameshow (or whatever). We don't do Netflix Carmen, mostly because of the violence. And because it is fanfiction, you can also create other characters and situations to suit your story. Now, Chase, Carme, Ivy (or whoever) were here, of course, you would ask their permission; tell them your idea; and if they like it they might write it with you. 🙂

    @Jon Eckart Now, if you for a friendship with someone on--and off-site, you might form a partnership with them, and write stories together (like Chase and Carmen; or Chase and Ivy; or Lucy and I) and then you will just put a statement saying that this story is a co-write with whoever. In fact, if you collaborate with this person a lot, people will just assume they have your permission; although you should always say it anyway, just as a common courtesy. In fact, ironically, the only people whose permission you must always ask to use their characters are "original" characters, who are creations of their individual writers (which most of us on here, are) specifically because we are not cannon. I hope that makes sense. 🙂

    @Jon Eckart Now, if you want to write something, but don't have a lot of time, I would suggest posting a status; or replying to someone else's status. Or you could start a guessing game. Look under Forums/Guessing Games, and look at some things other people have done, to give you ideas. I hope that helps. 🙂
