calls me on the phone tells me all the ways he's gonna mess me up
1. Who are you? Liz! (Exclamation point included free with purchase.)
2. Yay! How long have we been RPing together? ...holy cats, since May last year. How time doth fly!
3. What was your first impression about our RPs? (IE, were you nervous, intimidated, disappointed, impressed, amused, annoyed?) TERRIFIED. It was like looking at a whole new level of amazing in RP, and I would say you were key in intimidating me to improve my writing, not to mention you just seemed like an awesome person in general and I feared offending you with inadequate writing.
4. First characters we played together? Pietro and Maddy, in the adventures of bra-sizing.
5. Most amusing scene from one of our RPs? Just off the top of my head? "Whoops ecstasy coffee."
6. Most depressing? Tiny Laurel and Stefan doing anything at all. ;_;
7. Sappiest/most romantic? HM. We will do it in the future. >:3
8. Cutest couple from our RPs? Kevin and Ginger EVEN IF IT'S NOT FOR REAL YET, it's going to happen, it counts.
9. Cutest friends? You will think I'm weird, but: Shauna and Tucker. What, they're friends. Kind of.
10. What's your favorite character that I play? Why? Ahahaha God, this is hard. I will say...Marion, because you used him to rehabilitate a name to pure drug-addled badassery.
11. Least favorite? Why? The shibari bee, because I just..hate bees. I'm sorry, it's my bad.
12. Something you'd like to RP/see happen in an RP with me at some point (no matter how random!)? Later, Ginger should meet Stefan and they should talk about the Get of Fenris- either Stefan. Somebody is going to need a new tribe, after all.
13. Name a song that reminds you of one of our couples/one of my characters and why you chose it.
I Am A Pirate, You Are A Princess - by Play Radio Play
Kevin/Ginger because I have a fondness for ridiculously adorable music for my teenager couples.
14. Anything in particular that makes my style of RPing stand out from others'? You have a distinct way with words and meta that shows a lot of awareness in how you put those things together that I really enjoy; it's obvious that you've had a lot more formal training in this kind of thing than I have, and it's a really neat style to write with because it encourages me to look at various layers of text. In addition, your metaphors kick so much ass that it measures in decibels of perhaps a million.
15. Anything I could improve on? Bringing sexy back. >:(
16. Character of mine you'd like to see more of? Andy and/or Eli, because they are just lovely- Aiden is floating around as well. Innocent sweetness. :)

8. Just the IDEA of it is that awesome, okay.
9. No, that's not weird! On many levels they are pretty similar, and I think they have the capacity not to want anything impossible from each other, which is sort of rare in any kind of relationship built on 'hey bb >:3'. And, uh, not that this is necessarily always the greatest thing ever in terms of emotional health, because both Tucker and Shauna have some REALLY AMAZING antennae pointing at self-destructive behavior, they can both kind of allow the other to do their own thing, like 'oh hey, you/your Tradition does some fucked up stuff, but that's cool, we can hang out. :3'
...well that was long for no reason.
10. XD trufax: Marion is probably my favorite of my characters, although my heart is soft and squishy and has niches for many others. It's weird because I don't particularly like...he's not a good person! At all! And no one should ever aspire to be like him, but I guess I respect that he's honest about that.
12. Oh wow, the Get would LOVE Ginger. Perhaps a little....too much. The younger one is probably better for recruiting purposes!
13. I....my HEART. In return, have a Laurel song! All of Our Hands
14. You know, I'd never really thought about that - the layers of text thing - but it makes very much sense, given that I've been in graduate school most of the time I've been RPing, and if there is one thing graduate school teaches you, it is about analyzing everything, esp. since I am all into critical theory, like a big nerd.
PS ty <3333 but madam, formal training or no your writing is really amazing. I'm continually impressed by the level of detail that goes into just your own internal plotting and the NPCs involved; that's something I think playing with you specifically has helped me improve because I have a tendency to JUST focus on the character and not so much their background.
16. Eli soon >:3

calls me on the phone tells me all the ways he's gonna mess me up
It's not until after the fourth call in an hour that Madeline finally unplugs the phone. She looks over at the silhouette in the window; when the light hits Eden's hair she can see the red in it and Madeline, who sees more than most people give her credit for, thinks it's strangely apt, the flash of blood and the potential for violence under all that sweetness, those long lashes and mouth like sugar spilled over the skin of a flower.
"Maybe--maybe it'll stop now," she offers hesitantly, hands twisting in the pockets of her sweater. The air conditioning in here is up high enough that she needs the cardigan; Eden likes the temperature just about freezing. In that blousey little top she's wearing it's bordering on indecent, which is probably not an accident.
Eden slides off of the windowsill and drifts over; when she walks it's dandelion fluff filtering through a stray beam of sunlight. All these things are incongruous, Madeline knows this, but she tries not to think about it. Until Eden says "Do you really think so?" and there's that note in her voice, not the one that could stop your heart, just the same one that in another life took her to a locked room with a gun.
She doesn't even have to talk, really. All the phone calls, the late night visits speak for themselves. Eden never really got to see what Mohinder was like when he was mad, but there's another world where he spits that all spies are just misunderstood, and that's something like what this is. Because after all, he and Gabriel have each other and these two forgotten women are just discards, just in the way, and he won't be happy until there's no trace of them left.
The problem is that sometimes forgotten people have a way of finding each other, and it's not always for the best, but when Eden chucks Madeline under the chin and leans forward - not to kiss her, just to nip her bottom lip like a promise - it doesn't matter.
"No, I...I don't, really." She wouldn't recognize the note in her own voice if she hadn't heard it before in Eden, a reflection of sound where their featherweight bones link when the other woman (still a girl, really, there are places where you stop growing) hooks her fingers into beltloops to tug their hips together.
They fit together like stitches in cloth, like ice melting together (something in you is eternal because it was frozen that way) and Madeline closes her eyes. "I know where he lives."
Eden's lashes flutter down to rest on her cheeks, and there's that flash of red again before she moves to button and zipper and skin. "Good."
