    Q & A The Skin You're In...

    Ephelides. My skin freckles rather readily and so, I am prodigiously vigilant about wearing sunscreen--even indoors--and limiting my exposure to the sun. However, I do love being out in the sunshine and have always had light freckling all over my face and most of my arms and upper torso...

    - The Director directs me to update my status, claiming my "real estate is empty". I don't know what that means... but here, is an update.

    Q & A Your character's greatest obsession

    Patterns. I am obsessed with finding the patterns in everything. The first pattern I remember revolved around waking up to the smell of baking bread followed, in time, to the sounds of my mother preparing and leaving for work. In the evenings, there was a pattern to which the aeroplanes...

    ACME Spring Break

    An open path through the restaurant was quickly created by Eugene Grovington and it was not long before Commander Monaghan and Doctor Conrad joined other authorities on the hardstanding tarmac again. Ivy had questions and wasted no time in attempting to rout out the possible reasons for an...

    Q & A What song best defines your character?

    There is no one song for Sophie Conrad, but there is a particular rhythm to her and I chanced upon it a few years ago when I heard a snippet of A Night Like This. Then, I had immediately thought, "Sophie!" Ever since, the allegro in the music of Caro Emerald has never failed to bring up the...

    Q & A Describe Your Morning Routine...

    // This is largely OOC, but written in first-person language. Sophie Conrad would never ever divulge her morning routine--or any routine--in such detail. Her writer did, however, greatly enjoy creating it. // My morning routine begins with ten minutes of quiet in bed, going through the...

    Open Carnival

    As the brightest gem on Avenida Atlântica tonight, the Art-Deco exterior of the Copacabana Palace Hotel was awash in golden light and the conglomeration of people and vehicles around its base glittered like the sea-foam swept up against fine sand. It was following an external circuit of the...

    [Zombie Apocalypse] N'Orleans to CEDA

    Pushed along by Hank, Stila relinquished the trusty fire extinguisher and scampered into the limousine after a Texan lilt and a blonde she recognised as Ella Jean. Key in ignition, the vehicle rumbled to life and wended out of the garage. "Pontchartrain!" Stila called out Hank, "CEDA set up a...

    [Zombie Apocalypse] N'Orleans to CEDA

    There was a light shower of sparks as a door swung open and Stila lifted the extinguisher in her hands, ready to smash her way through any more disjointed bodies, but the hallway was empty. A sudden roar sounded from above--and she knew those were not from the helicopters. "Come on!" she...

    [Zombie Apocalypse] N'Orleans to CEDA

    Fat 'un...? Stila pulled the straps of her kit around her and stared at the chainsaw-toting man in bewilderment. There were screams, and the sound drove them upwards. On the seventh floor, the door they passed swung open, revealing contorted faces and limbs. "Aaargh!" With a grab at an...

    [Zombie Apocalypse] N'Orleans to CEDA

    Stila Miles had arrived late last night, dropped from a helicopter into a school field. She had been driven past an evacuation center but it appeared overrun. Barely having got any sleep since, she had only managed to spend the hours repacking supplies and attempting to secure the premise. By...

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

    Quite simply, bread. More specifically, brioche. Ten years of my life were redolent with the aroma of freshly-baked brioche in the morning.

    ACME Spring Break

    People pointed. Some shouted. And, for much too long a moment, Sophie Conrad rested her fingers on her hips and glared as the men of ACME careened, tumbled, and rolled into various forms of foliage. As recognition set in, her astonishment at the appearance of the wing-suited figures had kindled...

    ACME Spring Break

    After the quick parting with Constance Kitlyn, Sophie Conrad had passed the better part of a half-hour in conversation with Calina Corranos. They spoke briefly about the upcoming Summer Olympics that was to be held in Rio de Janeiro while the Brazilian introduced the recipe for the very-fragrant...

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

    There is a purple hue that veils the sky, just before or after the civil twilight. A sort of silence occurs during these few precious minutes, for breathing and for contemplation, for beginnings and for endings...

    I've also found that the two thieves were leaving for Algeria, thanks of a trace of DNA evidence recovered from a helmet and their past in burglary cases according to the police.

    It's been gradually slowing for years... the theory has to do with the aging of the galaxy... it's not that we build tall stuff or heavy stuff (those have no impact on that).

    What would the movie night thing take to do? Is there a way to limit it to members only (on here), or would any glance at chat give away the whole thing?
