The Cafe {ooc}

The CaféImage

Welcome to Elaine’s Café. Whether you’re here to mingle, finish the last chapter of your current read, or simply pick up your morning coffee and muffin, Elaine’s is the ideal place to spend your time, with a cheerful staff, a delightful crowd, and delicious pastries and beverages.

Now, of course, every café has its regulars. In this roleplay, we will explore the lives of these people, through their toils and triumphs, and observe how they always seem to return to Elaine’s without hesitation.

This is a literate roleplay. If you don’t think you can meet a two-paragraph minimum, then this isn’t the one for you. You’ll be writing in first person rather than third, just to shake things up a bit. Romance is encouraged, but keep in mind the site’s general rules. Remember, this is a realistic roleplay, so try and be as much so as possible. Be detailed in your posts, and keep gender ratios even. Also, I’d like people’s histories to be revealed in the rp, which is why it’s not been included in the character skeleton.

Sexybabe16, could you please expand a little bit on your profile? I'm not understanding some of it. And why are there question marks after "quirks"? Do you not get what that means...?
Also, it'd be great if she could be a bit older. Thanks.

Appearance: Irynna has long dark brown hair that she often keeps in a loose, messy bun if she doesn't want all of her hair to fall on her face, and clear gray eyes that always seem to find a fault in you one moment, and make you spellbound the next. She stands at 5 foot 6 inches, and has a relatively slender and well-formed womanly figure that she always seems to maintain no matter how much she eats. Her secret? It remains a secret until revealed in the RP. :>

Favorite Song: "画沙 (Sand Painting)" by Jay Chou & Cindy Yen

Appearance: Standing at 5'11", with dark hair and a rather dark skin tone, Ethan (or Easy, as most people call him) can "easy"ly appear as a man with a dark and swarthy complexion to people who have just met him. His jet black hair is usually in a messy fashion, but somehow still looks neat, and . He tries to keep a clean shave, but it seems that his "5 o'clock" grows back no more than three or four hours after he shaves, although people have told him the fuzz compliments his dark hazel eyes.
His clothing color of choice is usually either black or some really warm color. Perfers to keep his appearance clean, so he wears black slacks, and almost never sags, keeping it up at a comfortable height. Usually wears a hoodless, non-sagging, sweatshirt.

@Sexybabe16 Sorry about the confusion. By expand, I mean match the number of likes your posted with dislikes. And why don't you look over everyone else's profile to better understand "quirks"? : ]

@wednesdaysun Both accepted, love your characters. Also I love Irynna's favorite song. <3

@Pencil_Me_In Isn't your picture of a celebrity? lol, other than that, you're accepted.

@LeoofVGCats Accepted when you finish it.

@chulance I'll hold you a spot for 24 hours!

@DarkSea So, I'd like it if you formatted your profile like everyone else, which means put your picture at the top, and where the "appearance" section is, put a physical description. : ] Thanks. You're accepted once that's done.

Yeah, your profile is fine, Sexybabe16, : ]. Although I do have one question: do you think you'll be able to be pretty literate in your posts? A two-paragraph minimum is what I consider to be around 130 to 175-ish words. I've seen you in some other rps and you don't seem to meet that.

Hmm, you're accepted mistress_of_fiction.

Will there be a central plot (as in something we're all trying to achieve, together or not)? Or are we just going to go free-for-all and see what comes up?

And also,
What region of the country are we in?
What is the time period when the roleplay starts (as in month, season)?
You do serve Ramen in your cafe, yes? :D

Thanks!

Ratio so far
5 gals : 3 guys (4 if chulance replies anytime soon)

Well, there isn't really a plot, I like character-driven roleplays.
I'm not going to answer the region of the country question right now, because, well, I don't really know!
Modern day. And we'll say around April, springtime.
Nope, no Ramen! : ]
And I was planning on tossing up a male profile later on, if we need it badly...
