How about an exploding cigar?

Working on a post, should have it up soon. I'll be home most of the day, so I'm going to try and hit up all of my RPs.

I make no assurances. Sarah is just an anti-hero, I'm pretty sure Justine will be more of a femme-fatale.

I like how nobody noticed the reference in the app, though. Redwood Falls was the name of the town I used for the Small Town RP, which I may or may not reboot.

Nice, I didn't notice because I never participated, sadly.

It really didn't work. The RP flew off the rails when people started introducing paranormal elements all willy nilly, which was not at all the point of the RP. I'm going to reboot it someday, along with doing the Fascist America RP, but I think I'm going to lurk and pick up a few more tricks before I OP again.

That is my only fear for this RP, people will start throwing twists and traitors whenever they want.

You'll just need to put your foot down occasionally, when it's necessary. Sometimes you just can't let certain things derail the plot.

That was my problem, I was a little too soft touch, rather than making sure the plot didn't get too ridiculous.

I'm working on my post at the moment. It's almost done, though.

Short post. Not much time to dedicate to any substantial post at the moment.

John will be contacting anyone willing to be more loyal to President Kennedy than the CIA director. Anyone interested.

by **Sanabel** » Wed Jul 08, 2015 11:32 am

He speaks Latin? To whom? The new char whose only abilities include speaking southern African and European languages, I mean. Who would be chemically castrated if his gayness was discovered.

Why didn't he go into the secret service then?
My char may be willing. But he's pretty loyal.

The house of cards intro should be the theme for this RP.

After all, my char is the pic of an actor from that show.
