List the RP journals you have and explain why you chose that name.
Only listing the ones currently being played because, omg, waaaaay too many.
@ rivelata
Rei Hino | Sailor Moon - manga | luvu2bby - This journal was made to match Mia's Minako journal, luvubby. We had this inside joke that the two of them were totally gay for each other, and then we actually ended up getting them together in the RP. Kind of doesn't make sense out of context, and since Mia's dropped Minako I've been wrestling with the idea of a name change.
FUN FACT: Our matching names started a trend, and everyone who apped senshi after that for a while had a ___bby name (crybby, sugarpinkbby, etc...)
Remus Lupin | Harry Potter - Marauder era | very_literate - I based Remus' characterization in part on his portrayal in the fanfic series Shoebox Project. The popularity of this series is such that it pretty much established Marauder era fanon. In SBP, Remus is shy, bookish, and eloquent, and constantly poking fun at and pointing out the grammatical errors in his friends' letters. Thus, he is literate. Very literate.
FUN FACT: He is very NOT-literate when he is angry.
Rogue | X-Men - ROGUE miniseries | mississippikiss - Rogue was raised in a hippie commune / cult compound in Mississippi. Her first boyfriend, Cody, went into a permanent vegetative state the first time they kissed. Later, she would also send Gambit into a three-week-long coma when they kissed. Mississippi kisses are dangerous. :|
FUN FACT: I STILL have to sing the song in my head every single time I type Mississippi.
Selene | Underworld | deals_death - Selene's "job" is hunting down and killing lycans. She and her partners are referred to as the Death Dealers. Ergo, she deals death.
FUN FACT: Selene has no fun fact. )< Fun facts are for pussies.

Lawrence Hill | Boy's Next Door | tagged_tongue - One night when 14-year-old Lawr is out looking for a trick, he wanders into a dark alley and stumbles across the gory scene of schoolteacher Adrian Clay ripping through a dead prostitute's intestines with a knife. When Adrian sees him, he runs off, and accidentally drops the dogtag he'd recently bought for his pet iguana. Lawr picks the tag up so the police won't find it, suspecting that Adrian might be the person who can help him escape his destructive lifestyle. He wears the tag in his tongue piercing until he can return it to Adrian. So... his tongue is tagged.
FUN FACT: Lawrence Hill is apparently the name of a Canadian motivational speaker. No really, go look him up. He's nowhere NEAR as pretty as Lawr.
Soubi Agatsuma | Loveless | wants_ur_ears - In the Loveless universe, a child is born with the ears and tail of a cat, which linger until they "lose their innocence." In layman's terms: lose the v-card, lose the ears. It's a running joke in the series that Soubi wants Ritsuka's ears, and is constantly called a pervert because of it. :D
FUN FACT: Soubi got Ritsuka's ears. ;D
