The Year's Profits

The Year's Profits

0 INK

Life on the mill is not as easy as it sounds, espicially not if you are on one like Whittington Mills which is in deep financial trouble and in danger of shutting dow completely, which would destroy the town and hurt the wool industry of Ketchum forever.

1,513 readers have visited The Year's Profits since kkpigs created it.

Introduction

Image

Whoever said life on the milling was easy, is a liar.

Welcome to Whittington's Mill, the heart of Ketchum and one of the most powerful mills in the wool industry. It is a very sucessful business that has been entrusted to the Whittington's for 7 generations, and will stay with the Whittington's for several more.

The Whittington's Mill is a huge industry, the only thing keeping Ketchum alive. It employs most of the residents and creates high quality wool for most of the population in the area. It is a very vibrant and sucessful thing, up until recently.

The newest mill, Pott's & Sons, has taken over and completely modernising the way clothes come along. Several people have completely abanded Whittington's Mill, and now it is about to be sold to Pott's.

Will the final profits be enough to keep it within the ownership of Whittington's?

Note: There will be several romances, fights, disagreements...

Roles:
Owner of the Mill: Taken Deliah Whittington played by kkpigs
Banker: Taken Reggie Booker played by Beach-born-boy
Spinner: Taken Ginger Smith played by MarchHare
Shepard 1: Taken Patrick Bell played by kkpigs
Shepard 2: Taken Brigid Collins played by clover honey
Millhand: Taken Harrison Garrett played by newzealander
I do not like Character Skeletons, I feel like they limit potentials people have. Basicly, on your character's include the role, give detailed descriptions of personalities, appearances, etc....I will only accept good characters.

"Good as ever," he answered. "How did you sleep?" he asked, looking at her with an eyebrow raised. He took a bite of his cereal and looked out the window for a moment before decided it would be a hard day. The rain would make the sheep go crazy.

He quickly put the movie in and sat next to Delilah with a huge grin. "I'm sure they are. But they're up a creek then. I'm the lucky one today, not them." He kissed her cheek and hit play, not paying any real attention to it.

Ginger shrugged her shoulders as she continued to eat her breakfast, "it was pretty good," she said to him. Though she wasn't much telling the truth about it, for her sleep was utterly amazing that night, even with the rain and thunder outside. "The rain seems kind of a shame today, would have liked it better if it was going to be sunny and nice," the girl finished her cereal then picked up the bowl to sip the milk still inside of it.

Deliah smiled and let herself relax against Reggie. She watched the movie, but her mind was on Reggie. She glanced at him happily to see if he was paying any attention to the movie. She knew that she was wasn't.

"Good. And, I'd like a nice sunny day too," he said, looking out the window and slowing eating his cereal. He took his time and enjoyed everything, even little things like cereal. Sitting at the table, he wondered what everyone else was doing. Normally, everyone was awake by now.

He looked over, just in time to see her doing the same. "You know? I'm not really paying much attention to this to be honest. Are you?" He asked with a sly grin. He hoped not because then he'd feel stupid, but he guessed she wasn't paying too much attention to the screen either.

Ginger finally finished off what milk was left within her bowl and got up from the table, quickly washing the dishes of which she had used. Once she was done she walked back over to the table and sat down once more, "so what have you got planned today?" She looked at Patrick with a friendly smile before adding to what she said, "besides herding sheep," she said with a soft giggle.

Re: [OOC] The Year's Profits

KKpigs, Newzealender didn't understand and is a new Rp'er I let them know about it right after it happened. :P

Re: [OOC] The Year's Profits

Hey Guys! Sorry I haven't posted in a while, I've been very busy lately. I realised the rules haven't been officialy posted, so I figured I better. Here they are:

1. No Sentence Posts
Please make your posts at least 3 sentences long, dialog, even if it's just "Yeah," counts as one sentence. Don't make a post more then 6 paragraphs, either. One healthy paragraph is ideal.
2. No Godmodding
Do not control other people's characters. Whether it be through action, dialog, or any other way. If it happens more than 3 times, you will be removed from the RP.

If anyone objects or would like to make a change to these rules, please tell me and I will consider. If any of these seem extreme or unrealisitic, I will do my best to come to the terms of the other RPers. If anyone violates the rules, please report them to me through OOC or PM and I will do my best to tell them or remove them from the RP.

Re: [OOC] The Year's Profits

Thanks clover honey just give me a few months all will be sorted out quickly haha

Re: [OOC] The Year's Profits

Its cool I totally understand you don't know unless someone lets you know. If your new to the RP scene, stuff happens it's just some people are really touchy about it, if it had been me it wouldn't have bothered me that much unless it was a regular thing. You can't expected to know the etiquette if someone doesn't tell you so I'm glad to help you out mate. If you have any questions just ask me I'd be glad to answer them to the best of my abilities. I haven't been a member of this site too long but I've been roleplaying for years.

Also you have to post like five or six times in the OOC's to be able to PM someone back if your curious as to why you couldn't send a PM back to me. Like I said in the PM feel free to interact with my character and I'll get back with it in the morning but right now I'm gonna try to get a few hours of sleep before I have to go to class in the morning. Just check back when you can

Re: [OOC] The Year's Profits

Okay. If you think you can do 3 sentence posts, with dialog counting as a sentence, then you should join. If not, sorry:(
