				<div align="center">(http://i830.photobucket.com/albums/zz222/DiverseDesires/castlebanner1.jpg)</div><br><span style="font-size: 14pt;" class="bbc_size">Today on a polyamory forum the following advertisement is posted:</span><br><br><span style="font-size: 12pt;" class="bbc_size"><span style="font-family: courier;" class="bbc_font">Three men and three women are required for an interesting psychological experiment concerning polyamory.&nbsp; For more details and how to apply call 8100668</span></span><br><br><br>When anyone rings the number listed there is a recorded message with a website address on it.&nbsp; The website explains that this a six month experiment where each person who is chosen will be required to live in a castle on a Scottish island.&nbsp; A contract will be signed and no-one will be allowed to leave until the six month period is over.&nbsp; As well as abiding by the rules of the experiment each subject will also keep a video diary which must be kept up to date at least once every three days.<br><br>The following points are also then explained:<br><br>It will be necessary to view this as a form of arranged marriage.&nbsp; Where each person is committing to try and be part of creating a full and totally polyamorus group. Although sexual relationships will be fully consensual each participant is there as a fully open member of the group and will be expected to be keen to be sexually and physical free and have the&nbsp; &nbsp;experience and liking for / or a desire for group sex.&nbsp; After rigorous medical and psychological testing applicants will be very carefully matched to find a group who are as compatible as possible. And if accepted will need to understand that they also accept everyone there equally and no smaller gropings or individual parings will be allowed.&nbsp; &nbsp;<br><br>In addition to this only females who are submissive and males who are dominant need apply.&nbsp; One of the important aspects of the experiment is that it will be run on very old fashioned lines. The women will be the home makers, sharing the responsibility of the care of the men and of their home in the castle, they must also get on well amongst each other;&nbsp; be supportive and like being in a social group made of just women. The men need to be strong individuals who believe totally in male dominance - you will be hunting, fishing and doing some gardening and any heavy work in the household. It is also just as important that the men are all used to being with other groups of men and bond well with them and fit in well with the group.&nbsp; <br><br>Sexually too the women will be subservient to the men, have experience of, or want to be part of a slightly BDSM environment, where light impact play and bondage may be part of their experiences.&nbsp; The men must take their roles very seriously looking after and caring for the women, and never abuse them or break the rules given to them. <br><br>Anyone reading this far will also find out that each&nbsp; person will be paid a rather large sum of money for their&nbsp; time and commitment.&nbsp; And as their eyebrows raise or they gasp at the amount offered their eyes also read the warning.... that total commitment is required; there will be no contact with the outside world; that the testing will be rigorous and not to bother applying unless you think you truly do want to commit to a 6 person polyamorus family where the old-fashioned principles of male domination will be upheld. <br><br><br><br><span style="font-size: 14pt;" class="bbc_size">THE TWIST:</span><br><br>OK so below you will find a cast list with a general outline of the people who are needed for the story, you can choose the nationality, colour, looks etc (pics please and preferable more than one or links to them) and background – if there is anything you want to change in the outline provided we just need to discuss it.<br><br>The first male character has a rather large secret – <strong>this is not an experiment</strong>.&nbsp; He is the owner of the island, amazingly rich! He knows that polyamory is where his heart is but over the years has been chased for his money and never found happiness.&nbsp; He decides to set up the whole false experiment up to see if by looking for people who are compatible using both the psychological testing, expert dating agency professionals and his own likes and dislikes and who he is attracted and drawn to he can bring together people who could form a lasting bond and stay together after the six months is up.&nbsp; He will have access to the video diaries and also of course all their backgrounds.&nbsp; He will reveal this in the fifth month of the experiment if things are going well enough for him to do so.&nbsp; &nbsp;At the end of the six months we then find out who wants to stay and who leaves.<br><br><br><span style="font-size: 14pt;" class="bbc_size">The Game</span><br><br>I am looking for writers who really want to explore this concept.&nbsp; Not only of polyamory, and of sub/dom relationships in a group context but also the arranged marriage aspect and that they are strangers to each other - how three dominant men find ways of knitting together to form a bond that works (not easy for three naturally dominant men) and similarly how the women bond and come to terms with their life.<br><br>It is not expected that the characters will be bisexual, unless the writers who come forward would like this particularly it is not ruled out in any way and we can all discuss it OOC I am very happy for males and females to be bi if they so wish but it will depend on the group and who else is in it - I think it would probably be easier for them to be straight as the group dynamics would not be so complicated that way.<br><br>If you are interested please PM me with the word <strong>'subtext' </strong> in the title, I will be upfront and say that I am looking for&nbsp; real commitment, experience of writing from the sub/dom perspective, flexibility when it comes to things like lengths of posts (both long and short will be normal depending on the setting (I will write from between one para to a page depending on the actions) a commitment also to keep talking OOC and to YIM conference perhaps if an issue arises or just to chat if we find that helps us stay on track.<br><br>You need to be able to generally post at least once on most days - I understand RL commitments can get in the way and this is not a 'Thou shalt post every day' but if you normally only post sporadically or once every few days – that won't be fast enough for the way the dynamic should hopefully work here.&nbsp; Communication is the name of the game, if you are going away or for any other reason won't be able to post for a while, then you would need to extricate your character as ill in bed or something similar and let us occasionally NPC you if needed.<br><br>Accepted writers will then post their characters here and can chat and get to know each other OOC etc.&nbsp; I am planning for there to be as few threads as possible to keep interaction as much as possible as groups.&nbsp; So there will probably only be four IC'ly threads (bedrooms; all other rooms; outside on the island and the video diary room).&nbsp; As it is my baby I am GM and as I am on UK time if any of the writers who are US would like to help please do let me know as that would be really helpful – but I do not foresee much GM'ing to be needed other than as a casting vote for plot ideas and poss some time setting. At the beginning we will see how time in the game runs, it will be very much blurred around the edges – but as it is a group of 6 players I expect we will together work out a rough Real Time v Game Time that suits us<br><br><br>More than anything I hope it will be <strong>FUN! </strong>&nbsp; With a really good balance of character driven writing and hot steamy scenes in equal measure.&nbsp; How your character develops is entirely up to you - as is the ending of course – really look forward to hearing from you<br><br><strong>Desire x x x </strong> <br><br><strong>Character Outlines - <em>only outlines </em> - very much negotiable (Designed for their ages, sexual, D/S and B/D experience in mind.</strong><br><br><strong>Male One: ~ CAST<br></strong> <br>Rich Owner and Instigator of the experiment<br>Oldest Male mid 30' to mid 40's<br>Very Dominant with women but treats them as ladies - very old-fashioned and polite, <br>Very 'Boys together' with guys (perhaps background in team rough sport like American Football or Rugby)<br>Sexually very experienced has enjoyed light BDSM play and group sex in his own houses, never in clubs and has not 'scened'<br><br><strong>Male Two ~ CAST </strong> <br>Gentler Male From a bygone age<br>Age: v late 20's / early 30's<br>Brought up in a religious, and farming environment<br>Believes totally in men do the hard work, women stay at home, treats them like princesses and doesn't accept any bad language or lip from them<br>After getting to know a polyamorus family realised that this is driving need as he has never been happy in his monogamous relationships and knew something was missing.&nbsp; Never actually participated in group sex.<br>No conventional BDSM experience other than he likes tying girls up and using a rope end on them if the give him any lip<br>Likes a feisty woman though and has found, just occasionally, he likes them to push back and be dominant for a while - but only behind closed doors<br><br><strong>Male Three: ~ CAST</strong> <br>Most experienced as far as BDSM is concerned<br>Age: Late 20's<br>Been on the BDSM scene for many years and is an acknowledged master who is more d/s than anything else.&nbsp; At first he thought he wanted a TPE 24/7 but was v unhappy in the end. It took him some time to realise he needed a polyamorus family and when he tried it with three women it didn't work because of rivalries and them not all being compatible. Not much he hasn't tried a bit of a party animal. <br><br><strong>Female One: ~ CAST</strong><br>mid 20's<br>Sexually experienced, likes group sex and swinging<br>Has recently realised that she needs to be dominated to be happy and has been experimenting with BDSM – back story already in progress as this is my one<br><br><strong>Female Two: ~ CAST</strong><br>Late 20's<br>Brought up in a strict catholic home with lots of brothers and a very dominant father and home caring submissive mother<br>Sees this as the normal and right way - and she isn't comfortable being dominant in any way.<br>A bit shy, responds very well to praise.&nbsp; Sexually experienced though -&nbsp; her only very long term relationship was with a dominant who also liked bondage.&nbsp; As she is shy a lot of her friends and relationships have been on line or started there,&nbsp; where she also found out about polyamory and started to get more and more fascinated with it.&nbsp; The more she reads the more it feels as though this is where she should be.<br><br><strong>Female Three: ~ CAST</strong><br>Late 20's Early 30's<br>A hippy chick<br>Lived on a commune for some years and enjoyed the life style very much although is was not polyamorus there was quite a lot of swapping and sharing.<br>When the commune closed she traveled for a while and recently has been working as a carer and after a few failed relationships knows she needs to go back to some form of polyamory.&nbsp; Always loved being dominated and rough play not experienced BDSM as such.&nbsp; Is a little feisty and could have a little bit of a switch inside of her. Poss a bit of a leader where the women are concerned.<br><br><br><strong>If you aren't fed up reading yet here a few quotes:</strong><br><br>•There is a key trait in people who do polyamory well, and it’s this: They are good at regulating their strong emotions. By that I mean, when something emotionally intense is happening to you, either good or bad, you’re able to see it as part of a larger whole and keep it in perspective. <br><br>•In my experience and observation, the following factors most positively influence the odds for [poly relationship] success:<br>1. General attitude of goodwill and a generosity of spirit<br>2. Willingness to be honest, especially when the news is likely to hurt<br>3. Independent spirit<br>4. Strong personal desire for a poly life<br>5. Reasonably good emotional intelligence and self-esteem<br>6.Reading poly literature and discussing it <br><br><em>Mutual vulnerability is one of the great gifts of love: giving the other sufficient emotional space in which to live and express their soul, with its reasonable and unreasonable ways, and then to risk revealing your own soul, complete with its own absurdities </em> ~Thomas Moore~

Marcus Steele<br><strong>Age: </strong>&nbsp; 40<br><strong>Nationality &amp; Place of Birth:</strong>&nbsp; &nbsp;American, born and raised in Southampton, New York<br><strong>Build:</strong>&nbsp; &nbsp;5’ 10”, lean and muscular, brown hair, brown eyes, typically has a 5:00 o’clock shadow affect going at all times<br><strong>Colouring:</strong><br><strong>Tats, Piercings and Scars:</strong>&nbsp; Tattoo of a lightning bolt on his left arm, gotten during his college days as a memory of his lightning throws; no piercings, a scar on one shoulder from a fall as a kid<br><strong>Sexual Experience, Likes &amp; Dislikes:</strong> Marcus is very experienced sexually, having started in his late teens and not stopped since.&nbsp; His good looks and wealth allowed him more women than he could ever want but he has yet to find a fulfilling relationship with one individual and truly believes what he wants is a poly relationship.&nbsp; He is comfortable with all types of “vanilla” sex and also with light BDSM but has not explored anything rougher than that over the years.&nbsp; His sexual tendencies are dominant but with respect and courtesy.<br><strong>Hard Limits:</strong>&nbsp; Straight.&nbsp; No bathroom play, vore, or excessive violence/torture though a little blood play from biting/scratching is ok.&nbsp; No disfiguring either. <br><strong>Personality: </strong>&nbsp; Strong dominant personality; used to being in charge; sensual personality with loving instincts.&nbsp; Very protective also and demands respect for men and women alike.&nbsp; Treats everyone fairly and equally.&nbsp; <br><strong>Strengths:</strong>&nbsp; Easy going and laid back, solid leadership skills, wealth, strong overall, used to working with groups of people, confident<br><strong>Weaknesses:</strong>&nbsp; Has a soft heart which allows him to be taken for granted, particularly where his money is concerned<br><strong>Likes:</strong>&nbsp; Being creative, staying in shape, being outdoors, and reading.&nbsp; Also likes a good cup of coffee and the occasional drink.&nbsp; Enjoys a good meal.&nbsp; <br><strong>Dislikes:</strong>&nbsp; Dissention, unrest, or unhappiness among those he is responsible for – be they his teammates, staff, or friends.&nbsp; Also dislikes males who abuse or disrespect women.<br><strong>Background &amp; History:</strong>&nbsp; Marcus grew up in a wealthy family, living full time in Southhampton, an enclave in the famous Hamptons of New York.&nbsp; After a spoiled childhood he went on to be the star quarterback of the Boston College football team that were national champions all four years he was there.&nbsp; His childhood and college background provided him with the leadership skills to succeed in the business world and he built a highly successful import/export business that made him wealthy beyond measure.&nbsp; He is a leader of people and used to being in charge but all his life he has searched for the perfect relationship and failed to find it.&nbsp; He hopes his “experiment” will prove successful.&nbsp; <br><strong>A Heads Up: </strong> Marcus is looking for that perfect poly relationship so he will most likely change and adapt as the experiment progresses.&nbsp; He’s had plenty of experience with change over his life and always keeps an open mind.&nbsp; <br><br><br><br><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;" class="bbc_size"><span class="bbc_u">Male Two&nbsp;

James "Bo" Woods<br><strong>Age:</strong>&nbsp; 32<br><strong>Nationality &amp; Place of Birth:</strong>&nbsp; Midland, Texas<br><strong>Build:</strong> 6'&nbsp; and extremely fit; A swimmer's body, but hardened <br><strong>Colouring:</strong>&nbsp; Lightly tanned, fair skin with natural body hair.&nbsp; Dark blond/brown hair.&nbsp; Light blue eyes.<br><strong>Tats, Piercings and Scars:</strong> Attached a pic of a frog skeleton with a trident.&nbsp; This tat is on his right hip and very small, about 3" long.&nbsp; No other markings, except some scar tissue on the right side of his mid-torso just below his rib cage, about the size and shape of a nickel.<br><strong>Sexual Experience, Likes &amp; Dislikes: </strong> (Up to now)&nbsp; Straight.&nbsp; Has never felt fulfilled by one woman, doesn't like the notion of being "tied down" to a single individual.&nbsp; He came across some poly families during some of his field operations and got to know a few fairly well in one particular village.&nbsp; He was impressed with how well attended and content the men seemed. <br><strong>Hard Limits:</strong>(Up to now) Anything that disrespects or demeans himself or another would be unacceptable.&nbsp; No violence directed toward women.<br><strong>Personality:</strong>&nbsp; Bo is very laid back and friendly.&nbsp; He operates well alone and within a group setting, naturally taking a leadership position but works well with other strong leaders in an atmosphere of mutual respect.&nbsp; He is extremely self-confident.&nbsp; </td><td><br>(http://i830.photobucket.com/albums/zz222/DiverseDesires/frogtatsm.jpg)</td></tr></tbody></table><strong>Strengths:</strong>&nbsp; Athletic, outgoing, friendly and makes friends quickly, intelligent, observant of others<br><strong>Weaknesses:</strong>&nbsp; While his personality is real, he is guarded in regards to his military experience.&nbsp; He never talks about it to anyone outside of former operations team.&nbsp; When a woman gets close to him, she may feel frustrated when she comes up against this wall.<br><strong>Likes:</strong> Decisive men.&nbsp; Women who are big-hearted and sincere.&nbsp; Occasional alone time to read, hunt, shoot, or participate in any activity that occupies his mind in a way that allows him moments of focus and time in between to think.<br><strong>Dislikes:</strong> Physically or emotionally abusive people.&nbsp; Dishonesty.&nbsp; Disrespect.&nbsp; Flighty, materialistic women.&nbsp; Anyone incapable of laughing at themselves.<br><strong>Background &amp; History:</strong>&nbsp; Lieutenant Commander James "Bo" Woods (Bo) was born in Midland, Texas to conservative Christian parents Master Sergeant Tom (US Army Ret.) and Donna Woods.&nbsp; Bo was the youngest of two boys.&nbsp; His older brother, David, followed their father's footsteps and entered the Army directly out of high school.&nbsp; He was wounded by an IED in Iraq, received an honorable discharge, and came home to sell life insurance.&nbsp; Bo was the first in his family to get accepted to college and decided to pay for it through the Navy ROTC program.&nbsp; He gets a lot of good-humored flak from his family for choosing the Navy, but Bo being a natural athlete knew from the time he was 11 that he wanted to become a SEAL.&nbsp; A good friend of his's father was a member of one of the first UDT units in Vietnam, which sparked Bo's interest in the Navy.&nbsp; Upon completing college, with a generic major in business and finance, he served 2 years aboard a navy frigate before qualifying for BUD/S training.&nbsp; After passing BUD/S, he underwent SEAL Qualification Training (SQT) and was officially designated as a "SO" (Special Warfare Operator) at the age of 26 and assigned to his team.&nbsp; He was in his 5th year of service when he was wounded in combat by an AK-47 round.&nbsp; After recovering, he was offered the opportunity to continue as a combat trainer or transfer to intelligence work.&nbsp; He chose instead to resign his commission.&nbsp; At the age of 31 he was given an honorable discharge with commendations for service and officially left the US Navy.&nbsp; For the past 6 months, he has been traveling the world, enjoying doing so as a tourist with time to appreciate the sites and culture.&nbsp; The act of disembarking from an aircraft while it is sitting on the tarmac still makes him smile.&nbsp; After leaving the Navy, while never short of women that responded well to his natural, and trained, self-confidence, he had yet to find a relationship that was worth giving up his own sense of independence.&nbsp; When he saw the ad for the polyamory experiment, he recalled the families he had met in the small, isolated village and decided to give it a try.<br><strong>A Heads Up:</strong>&nbsp; Bo is hoping that the poly lifestyle that he witnessed in a small middle eastern village can be duplicated in a more western setting, but has his doubts.&nbsp; His reaction to the experiment will be colored by his expectations and how fulfilled the group involved make him feel.&nbsp; He is searching and open to change that doesn't violate his values.<br><br><br><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;" class="bbc_size"><span class="bbc_u"><del>Male Three: Vincent ~ Irish ~ The Fifth Master</del> </span> &nbsp;</span> </strong> <span style="font-size: 12pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong>Vincent Left the Project on the First Night - so this character is no longer in the story </strong> </span> &nbsp;<br><br><table class="bbc_table"><tbody><tr><td> (http://i607.photobucket.com/albums/tt158/simgoboy/1HandymanPG.jpg)<br></td><td><strong>Name:</strong> Vincent "The Tool" Lockhart <br><br><strong>Position:</strong> BDSM/Handyman <br><br><strong>Nationality &amp;

However, as he grew up, he saw that there was unfaithfulness on the part of both of his parents.&nbsp; He decided then that he would rather be open and honest with any of his prospective partners instead of hiding his desires.&nbsp; To that end, when he's expressed interest in others to his partners, invariably they have left him or made him leave them soon after.&nbsp; To his credit, he's never cheated...technically.<br><br>David has experience in BDSM as he was introduced to it by his most recent girlfriend, who became his first sub.&nbsp; She, however, left him for another while he was still finding his way through the world.&nbsp; This reinforced his dislike of cheating.&nbsp; He's not had any serious girlfriends for the past 3 years, though he's had plenty of partners both in and outside of the BDSM spectrum.&nbsp; He does, however, want to find the right one.&nbsp; Or ones.&nbsp; He quickly found that he did enjoy those moments when he had multiple submissives serving him, either in a scene or just relaxing.&nbsp; He decided that he wanted to explore the polyamorous scene, but was unable to find any interested in it in the short time he started to explore it.&nbsp; However, he began exploring that scene, looking on it as a new avenue to embrace. <br><br>David is a professional athlete, who has recently ended a contract with a rugby team in the UK.&nbsp; When the contract was near to ending, he applied for the experiment and was brought on as an alternate.&nbsp; He viewed it as an extension to his vacation.<br><br><strong>A Heads Up:</strong> (A brief insight about how you think you character will react at first and if their sexual hard and soft limits may change - and if so in what way)<br>David is pretty easy going, though he's not had a lot of experience with the poly lifestyle.&nbsp; However, he knows that there has to be something more than regular marriage.&nbsp; He feels that there is a place for traditional roles in marriage, but no need for traditional or conventional trappings.&nbsp; BDSM, poly, whatever, as long as it is honest and true.&nbsp; To that end, he found that he enjoyed the experiences he had with multiple partners or "assistant" Masters during some of his BDSM time, so he wants to explore the idea of a true and open poly situation and see if it's for him.&nbsp; A part of him feels that this could be the type of situation he's looking for, a place where a group comes together to support each other and love each other.&nbsp; The idea greatly appeals to him.&nbsp; A surrounding that is open, honest, and full of love is what he is looking for.&nbsp; As long as people are honest, he'll be happy.<br><br><br>&nbsp;<br><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;" class="bbc_size"><span class="bbc_u">Female One:&nbsp; Nicci Hatton ~ English ~ Diverse Desires </span> &nbsp;</span> </strong> <br><br>(http://i830.photobucket.com/albums/zz222/DiverseDesires/Niccism.jpg)<br><br><strong>Name:</strong>&nbsp; Nicola Hatton – Nicci as she prefers to be called, Modeling and Professional Name Nicci de Moyne<br><strong>Age:</strong> 24<br><strong>Nationality &amp; Place of Birth:</strong> Guildford, Surrey, England - but grew up on the notorious Crossways Estate, in Tower Hamlets. East London<br><strong>Build:</strong> Height 5'9”: Statistics 36-24-36 : Bra 36D cup : toned and very fit for her modeling <br><strong>Colouring:</strong> Deep brown rich mahogany toned hair, brown/green eyes (Dark brown on the outer ring going to deep green in the center) Fair skin which tans to a golden brown, lightly tanned at the moment from a photographic shoot in Malta<br><strong>Tats, Piercings and Scars:</strong> Pierced ears, would have loved to get her belly button pierced and possibly her nipple too but with her job she didn't feel she could, same with the tattoos, none on her at the moment.&nbsp; She has a small scar on the underside of one breast and another across three fingers of her left hand. Because of her job she also has had laser hair removal and so has no pubic or under arm air.&nbsp; <br><strong>Sexual Experience, Likes &amp; Dislikes: </strong> A Sensual Person who has enjoyed all forms of sex she has been introduced to.&nbsp; So far she has enjoyed&nbsp; oral, vaginal, anal (incl DP), being watched and photographed, group sex, rough sex,and more recently some spanking, being restrained and blindfolded and has just started to go to a local BDSM group to explore that side of her. <br><strong>Hard Limits:</strong> Straight, she is comfortable enough to touch other woman in group sex and enjoys their beauty but she is only really attracted to men. Bathroom play just makes her think urrrch, hurting someone badly has her reaching for a frying pan, and she isn't sure about impact play with anything other than hands as it looks very scarey even though some people seem to enjoy it very much and she is curious about it.&nbsp; <br><strong>Personality:</strong> Mercurial: teasing and playful one minute quiet and serious the next. Fiercely protective of the underdog, very fatalistic, hard working and very level headed even though she is a real party girl and loves to flirt.<br><strong>Strengths:</strong> Determination, empathy, easy going and a very good team-player, trustworthy and always honest, a good friend in need.<br><strong>Weaknesses:</strong> Liking for attention, can sometimes talk over the top of someone else when she gets intense, strong men who can physically best her, sex and sexual fulfillment, malteasers and beautiful things.<br><strong>Likes:</strong> Listening to music (the louder the better), malteasers, long baths, Strong black good coffee and good red wine, exercising, good company, sex, beautiful clothes, art, decor and accessories..<br><strong>Dislikes:</strong> Bitching, untidiness, prejudice, grapefruit, mice and weak willed men. Although she adores cooking she has never enjoyed house work which is her main&nbsp; qualm about her role.<br><strong>Background &amp; History:</strong> Nicci was a young teen model, having been spotted by a scout in a local dance contest.&nbsp; Her mother, a single parent, supported her and Nicci's income helped the family considerably.&nbsp; As her body finished developing in her late teens her slightly curvier figure than the normal 34-24-34 appealed more to the erotic and and artistic modeling she ended up doing as a career.&nbsp; She had always been totally home with her body, her mother being a bit of a nudist at heart had brought her up to love her own body and revel in its wonder, so nude modeling for artists was something she enjoyed and was much in demand for, in the end making a very good salary indeed. This increased when she also started to do body doubling for actresses in sex scenes as well as high class erotica and bondage photographic modeling.<br>Sexually by this time she was slipping onto a party sex scene and starting to swing, she found she was much happier doing that than having a monogamous relationship , but she still longed for something permanent which never materialised.&nbsp; She used her now very comfortable income to provide for her mother and have a good time as well as investing and saving wisely for the future.&nbsp; She worked very hard and her agent was a very close friend who was also her confidente. <br>As time went by she realised she was turned on by men posing her and controlling her - her fantasies nearly always of being touched and played with, of being a man's plaything – which became reality when&nbsp; an artist who was quite a bit older than her did just that, and it is still one of her favorite erotic memories.&nbsp; He then went on to introduce her to submission and being dominated which she found she loved.&nbsp; When he moved to Canada and the relationship ended she carried on partying and swinging but not finding it fulfilled her she started to read more about BDSM on-line, eventually going to a local group.&nbsp; She has been making friends there and had a couple of scenes with one of the members and was thinking about asking him to train her formally when she read the advertisement on the polyamory and swinging forum and as polyamory had seemed more an more what she was looking for she let her curiosity get the better of her and&nbsp; rang the number.<br>She has taken a leave of absence for one year, thinking that after the six months was up she would travel and make some decisions about her life and try to settle down somewhere.&nbsp; <br><br><strong>A Heads Up:</strong> Nicci isn't worried about getting on the girls, she is a little more concerned about the guys as she is worried that as they are all&nbsp; dominant they might also be perhaps a little bullying or trying to jockey for power.&nbsp; Strangely her biggest fear is the housework which she is not very good at and doesn't enjoy.&nbsp; She would much rather be outside with the men.&nbsp; As cooking is her thing I could see her developing that role within the group a lot and the biggest boundary she'll push against will probably being cooped up indoors for any length of time and sneaking off outside.&nbsp; She probably won't react well to any real 'punishment' at first – 'funishment' on the other hand she may well provoke on purpose after a while.<br><br><br><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;" class="bbc_size"><span class="bbc_u">Female Two: Mila Rosen ~ American ~ Elina</span></span></strong><br><br>(http://i830.photobucket.com/albums/zz222/DiverseDesires/elinaspicsm.jpg)<br><br><strong>Name:</strong>&nbsp;

Dislikes:</strong> Mila has been with one man.&nbsp; He was a dominant who enjoyed bondage.&nbsp; She liked the bondage, but he was a selfish lover, often unconcerned with her pleasure.<br><br><strong>Hard Limits :</strong> Pain<br><br><strong>Personality: </strong>&nbsp; Shy, kind.&nbsp; Very open to polyamory.<br><br><strong>Strengths: </strong> Works hard, wants everything to go well.<br><br><strong>Weaknesses:</strong> If things go badly, she is likely to be pushed around<br><br><strong>Likes: </strong> Computers, online communities which allow her to come out of her shell<br><br><strong>Dislikes:</strong> Making decisions<br><br><strong>Background &amp; History:</strong> Mila was brought up in a strict religious household.&nbsp; She has four older brothers, and no sisters.&nbsp; Her father ruled the household in a heavy-handed way.&nbsp; The gender roles were very traditional, with the men having more freedoms than Mila and her mother.&nbsp; She was taught to be subservient to men.&nbsp; As an adult, she went to a conservative religious university where she studied art history.&nbsp; When her father died, she had no more money and was unable to continue.&nbsp; Moved away from Sedona to Florida with her boyfriend.&nbsp; After they split up, she opted not to go back home, instead making ends meet by teaching art on occasion at the local community college.<br><br>Mila has long believed that it is possible to love more than one person.&nbsp; She was not familiar with the term polyamory until she stumbled upon it online, but was excited to see that others held beliefs similar to her own.&nbsp; When she approached her boyfriend about opening up their relationship, he left her.&nbsp; For Mila, this is not a chance to have group sex, but rather an opportunity to love as openly and freely as she is meant to.&nbsp; She feels blessed to be given an opportunity to create a family who values traditional gender roles as she does.<br><br><strong>A Heads Up:</strong> Mila doesn't know what her limits are, really.&nbsp; Her father had a heavy hand with discipline, often taking a belt to the females in the house, and so she knows that severe punishment is not for her.&nbsp; She'll be open to everything, eager to please.&nbsp; I see her evolving from timid to having a backbone.&nbsp; I also see her opening up to light discipline and pain as she discovers that it can be pleasurable when applied with a loving hand.<br><br><br><span style="font-size: 12pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong>Female Three: Marisol ~ Pueto Rican/American ~&nbsp; GrapeTootsiePop </strong></span><br><br>(http://img686.imageshack.us/img686/6674/53728264.jpg)<br><strong>Name:</strong> Marisol Trevino -- Known as Mari to her close friends<br><strong>Age:</strong> April 1st, 1981 -- 29 yrs old<br><strong>Nationality &amp; Place of Birth:</strong> Born and raised in San Juan, Puerto Rico until she Graduated College. Moved to New York and then to New Jersey and is currently living the 'Gypsy code' (wherever her heart and job takes her.)<br><strong>Build:</strong> Height 5'7" – Weight 130 pounds - Breast Size 36B <br><strong>Colouring:</strong> Natural tanned skin. Long, flowing black hair and espresso-colored eyes.<br><strong>Tats/Piercings and Scars:</strong> None.<br><strong>Sexual Experience, Likes &amp; Dislikes: (Up to now)</strong> Has always enjoyed the rough side of sex, is very much into loud sex, rough and wild. A little bit of everything; is an exhibitionist as well as a voyeur. Like public sex, threesomes, orgies and hair pulling. Has a bit of oral fixation, adores giving blow jobs, especially with a bit of orgasm control. She is a sub but occasionally she does let her wild, slightly dominant side come out. Especially when she does it and ends up getting punished for it later. The harder the sex, the more powerful are her orgasms.<br><strong>Hard Limits:(Up to now)</strong> Straight with minimal bi tendencies. She doesn't mind touching and kissing another female but it's more if it's the request of her lover. Gets more of her sexual gratification from men. Limits are: Scat/Bathroom play<br><strong>Personality:</strong> Friendly and bubbly. She is always laughing and always trying to make everyone around her feel at ease. She has a dominant personality when it comes to other females but that comes from being one of the oldest of 10 children. Is a 'take charge' type of person but has a very warm and affectionate side. Also a bit adventurous and spontaneous. Loves catching people by surprise!<br><strong>Strengths:</strong> Concern and Affection towards all in her group. She is one to always listen and always offer advice, especially when it comes to matter she is experienced with<br><strong>Weaknesses:</strong> Flirting. She likes to press button until it becomes too much and emotions flare out of control. She is not one to cause drama...simply like to add spice to the group's life.<br><strong>Likes:</strong> Reading. Swimming. Loves breakfast in bed and cuddling. Is a sucker for a good shot of Rum and Dancing.<br><strong>Dislikes:</strong> Arguments, Conflict. Pushovers and Malicious Authoritarians.<br><strong>Background &amp; History:</strong> Mari was the oldest girl and second oldest from 10 children to Puertorican parents. She had grown up her entire life telling people what to do and being a second 'mother' to her siblings. While she adored her life in Puerto Rico, Marisol was growing bored with the repetitive lifestyle (finish school, get married, have babies, repeat.) As soon as she Graduated college, Marisol packed her bags and moved to New York where she lived with her Aunt and Uncle until moving to a commune just outside of New Jersey.<br>Marisol has always enjoyed her body and explored the wild, risky sex that good Catholic girls should not do. While she had lived in Puerto Rico, she lost her virginity out on the beach and had continued to publicly have sex with her boyfriend - coming to LOVE the idea of getting caught and being watched. Once she moved to New York she was a bit more careful but still often enjoyed crazy club parties, where she would often find herself in the back room with a guy and his 'buddy'. Learning about threesomes and double penetration became one of her favorite things to do. By the time she moved to the commune, Marisol was well experienced in sex and partner swapping.<br>She was quite sad when the commune closed down and so she packed up her bags and instead of moving back in with her family, Marisol began to travel the United States. She was a care-taker, always helping and always being the 'Mother' of everyone.<br>Monogamy was not in her best interest. Though she tried, it was just impossible for Marisol to be committed to one man only. The temptation to love freely and love others was just too strong. It was right after she broke up with her boyfriend of three months that Mari was browsing the polyamory and swinging website when she came across the Advertisement. Since she needed a fresh start, she packed up her bags and called the number. The rest...is history.<br><strong>A Heads Up: (A brief insight about how you think you character will react at first and if their sexual hard and soft limits may change - and if so in what way)</strong> Marisol is taking on this experiment like she does everything else in life; Full-speed ahead. She knows it's going to be a challenge to get to know everyone and learn the ropes but she's willing and eager to get started. As far as her limits, she doesn't believe the limits will change considering she doesn't have that many limits. While she is not too experienced with BDSM, Marisol is NOT the girl to ever utter the word No.<br><br><br><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;" class="bbc_size"><span class="bbc_u">NPC Staff:</span></span></strong><br><br><div align="center">(http://i830.photobucket.com/albums/zz222/DiverseDesires/npcs.jpg)</div><br><br>Miss Taylor&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; ~ Psychologist&nbsp; <br><br>Angus Ross&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; ~ Estate Manager, Ghille to the men (Takes them hunting, fishing etc) <br><br>Jamie Kerr&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;~ Estate Worker, mainly in the kitchen garden, very knowledgeable about the wildlife&nbsp; <br><br>Donald &amp; Nick Stuart&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;~ Father &amp; son shepherds and general estate workers <br><br>Cathy Stuart&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;~ Housekeeper - wife of Donald (Only seen on the first two days unless called for something)<br><br>Catriona and Mary&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; ~ Laundry, cleaning, cooking etc (Only really laundry during the 6 months)</td></tr></tbody></table>

				Well all the links to the story threads are up now and working with lots of pics - in the third post above - if you guys can have a look please and read through the few bits and pieces that are there so that you can ask if anything doesn't make sense or needs clarifying - then tomorrow I will write up the rules for the experiment and finally the way I thoguth the beginning could work ( you need to have read the links before so that will make sense too)- I think TS should have his bio tomorrow too - so tomorrow night and the next day we can OOC any queries and get to know each other a bit I hope.<br><br>So if all goes well Friday/Saturday we can start!<br><br>D D x x x<br><br>I hope you all like your rooms!

				I lioke the billiard room too TS - and the entertainment room!&nbsp; <br><br><br>OK – so TS has his bio up – and I have also added the NPC staff at the bottom of the bio's post – the final marker post now has the rules – so you have a few bits to read!<br><br><br><br><strong>Beginning the story</strong><br><br>The idea for the start of our story is for each participant to come to the castle one at a time (booked approximately one hour apart) the first arriving&nbsp; afternoon.&nbsp; They will be met by Miss Taylor, the psychologist who interviewed and counseled them before they came.<br><br>She will welcome them, and take&nbsp; them on a quick tour of the downstairs reception rooms, and show them how to use the diary room.&nbsp; Taking you to the kitchens she introduces you to the Housekeeper, Cathy, who she explains has organised their meal tonight, got the castle ready for&nbsp; them all, and in the morning, after also doing breakfast for them all, before she leaves will show the women how everything works, where everything is and answer any questions they have about the running of the castle.<br><br>She also introduces Catriona and Mary who are also helping in the kitchen on the first day for the special meal explaining they will be coming over to the island about once a week to do the laundry and help with any of the larger cleaning jobs that they might need help with.<br><br>Taking them upstairs she shows you the sharing bedrooms and explains what they are for, and takes you out onto the battlements, reminding you of the rules as you go and explaining too that her number is by the phone in the diary room if you were ever in crisis and needed to talk to her.<br><br>She finishes up by taking you to your own room – pointing out your fellow subjects are also on the same landing.&nbsp; She says that you need to go to the great hall for 8pm where everyone will meet for drinks before a special dinner is served in the dining room at 8.30pm.&nbsp; She shakes your hand and wishes you luck, saying she thinks that you will all get on really well together and says goodbye.<br><br>So – if the first person arrives at 3pm, second at 4 – etc.&nbsp; Your first post can be arriving and seeing the castle and going on the tour and unpacking etc – or you can just start in your room and thinking back over what has happened etc – entirely up to you.&nbsp; Of course the first posters will have longer to wait and more time to fill - the last one, arriving at 7pm will only have a few minutes before needing to go downstairs!&nbsp; Marcus' first post can start at any point in that day as he is already there – and he can watch them arrive from an upstairs window or be involved with last minute preparations if you so wish Mongoose!<br><br>When everyone had posted – we can all go to the main hall and play it from there!<br><br>So – any questions?&nbsp; <br><br>D D x x x

				DD is asleep right now being on UK time, but from what she said in regards to Marcus's first posting being any time of day, I don't think he has to be first.&nbsp; If you want to go first, just say it is 3pm, then the next person would say it is 4pm, etc. ?&nbsp; seems reasonable.

				I'm not sure what their knowledge level is concerning the poly experiment.&nbsp; Obviously they are there for us initially, but according the storyline, you ladies will be doing most of the "homemaking" after we all get settled.&nbsp; So it may be unnecessary for the staff to be briefed on everything that is going on.&nbsp; Marcus or one of his agents must have hired them, but that is all I would presume.&nbsp; If one of his agents, then they may not even know that he owns the place.&nbsp; <br><br>Guess we should let DD clarify some of that if nobody else knows.&nbsp; Can always edit your initial post later or just not assume any special knowledge of the staff initially.<br><br>I think it is safe to assume that we are expected though.

				I thought as far as the staff are concerned they do know it is an psychological experiment, and have been told it is about a group of people living together with the old fashioned principles that men are dominant.&nbsp; <br><br>The staff all live off the island - they will only come when the weather is good enough - so as winter sets in they will see less of them.&nbsp; The men will come whenever the sea is calm enough rain or shine.&nbsp; Angus is the one the guys will be with most, if they want too, as he is their ghillie (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gillie) taking them hunting, fishing etc.&nbsp; I put Jamie as the gardener - so he will bring the girls the fresh food each day he is there and the supplies that have been ordered too (I thought the housekeeper in the morning will show the girls a simple netbook in the kitchen which has a log-in to a supermarket so they can order anything for the next time the boat comes over - bearing in mind as the weather gets worse they will have to plan a very good stock cupboard and freezer!)<br><br>The staff are extremely well paid and have tight contracts - and would never breathe a word about what is happening on the island - the local area all know that there is a project on the island - but not what.&nbsp; I think the staff may get to realise as time goes by the polyamory aspect of things - and only Angus knows who owns the island, and knows it is a secret.&nbsp; So Marcus can have private words with him at any time.<br><br>I thought if we start the setting in autumn, mid September, they have the more isolating winter months together (and christmas!) and the start of spring and lambing etc and the big decision comes in spring itself, a good time for new beginnings!<br><br>The NPC staff are only there to make the setting 'real' you can use them or not use them in whatever way you wish.&nbsp; Lots of knowledge or events can be assumed - so for instance one of the guys could refer to going out on the mountain with Jamie and being shown the eagles, or being taught how to take winter feed out to the ewes when the weather is too bad for the estate workers to come across - and I expect that is what will happen most of the time.&nbsp; And of course you can write a whole scene with them if you wish.&nbsp; We can also plot on the OOC at anytime to arrange scenes we have ideas for.&nbsp; <br><br><br>The first posts are wonderful *kiss* lovely to wake up to things getting started&nbsp; ;D

				I see we're off to a great start!&nbsp; That's fantastic&nbsp; ;D<br><br>Thank you for clarifying the staff portion DD.&nbsp; Much appreciated.&nbsp; Just to clarify one thing - Angus knows that Marcus owns the island and about the poly aspect of the experiment or just that Marcus owns the island?&nbsp; I'm trying to determine if Angus may serve as a confidante for Marcus at times (if so, I envision using him in my opening post for example).&nbsp;

				I think she would have been given a clothing allowance as soon as they knew her back ground (as would anyone else who needed it) - and has been told to buy a cocktail dress and some good wet weather gear, strurdy boots, and work clothes etc.&nbsp; And I think everyone will have been given a list of things they needed - like hiking boots, wellies, wet weather gear etc don't you?<br><br>I thought also if there are things they found they needed or wanted&nbsp; down the line - they could mention them in their video diaries and get a reply back - what do you think?&nbsp; In 6 months there might be quite a bit of things.<br><br>I also wondered if the Men should be in on the Houskeeper's explaination of everything - partly from the point of view that they want to know what is going on so they are in control of it, and perhaps partly curiousity.&nbsp; Perhaps it can some up at dinner and the men can agree together they want 'in'&nbsp; so that they know what is going on and the girls get a sense of being supervised - maybe the men have a bonding billiard game after the girls have gone to bed and they talk about it then?<br><br>what do you guys think?

				I like the idea of the stipend for everyone who needed it.&nbsp; Marcus has plenty of money and a very protective nature.&nbsp; He'd want to provide for any needs any of the 5 might have in order to ensure the experiment is as successful as possible.&nbsp; I also like the idea of people mentioning things they need in their video diaries.&nbsp; Realistically, clothing will be torn or ripped (off) so clothes will need to be replaced over time, plus normal hygiene stuff, etc.&nbsp; Fun stuff too....like your character's erotic novels might be purchased down the road, etc.&nbsp; As everyone learns more about everyone else, there will be things they miss from their previous lives, etc.&nbsp; <br><br>I'm fine with the guys being in on the housekeeping explanation.&nbsp; <br><br>

				Hello, everyone!&nbsp; *blows kisses*<br><br>I wanted to raise two things:&nbsp; <br>1)&nbsp; Time of day/day changes.&nbsp; Once we aren't all together, I think we're going to want to be careful that we're each writing the same time frame.&nbsp; For example, we don't want Mila on Thursday night while someone else is writing Saturday at the same time.&nbsp; Not an issue yet, but it could become one as we split off into not being in the same rooms/threads.&nbsp; I think our awesome OOC communication will take care of this, but I'm just throwing it out there.<br>2) I know that we aren't necessarily planning on writing sex the first night together, but I was wondering what you guys thought of the first time being with all 6 in the large shared room.&nbsp; Even if they are split into pairs, it seems like there may be more unity if they experience it together.&nbsp; But then, I don't know how realistic that would be, or awkward.&nbsp; Opinions?<br>

				I think that you are right in that it might be a good idea not to have sex on the first night, perhaps after dinner they should talk in the lounge for a while, and then if the girls go off to bed and the boys play billiards.&nbsp; Elina and I also discussed the girls then deciding to have some time together in one of the bedrooms too.&nbsp; <br><br>At dinner I think it would be good to try and throw as much into mixing them up as possible and have no-one at the head or foot of the table. So I propose the name cards will read like this:<br><br><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Bo&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Mari&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Vince<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; ______________________________<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;l&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;l<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;l&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;l<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;l______________________________ l<br><br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Mila&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Marcus&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Nicci<br><br><br>Shout up if you disagree<br><br>In the morning breakfast will be at 8am (Angus will tell them that)&nbsp; also in the dining room<br><br>But with the actual story I would like for breakfast and lunch to be in the kitchen - informal etc (which gives a lot more freedom for the characters) and for only dinner to be at the table in the dining room unless arranged differently.&nbsp; &nbsp;I thought it would have to be a decision made by the boys so I what I was going to ask was if, after their full breakfast in the dining room the boys are so stuffed they tell the girls they will just have a snack/sandwich at lunch time in the kitchen. Whether that is all together or not they enjoy the domestic setting and decide among themselves that the kitchen would be better for breakfast and lunch.<br><br>It could also be that even the evening meal was in the kitchen and only celebration meals were in the dining room - that is entirely up to you guys - what do you think?&nbsp; And Is it OK to engineer it that way?<br><br>The first real intimacy, I am happy for it to&nbsp; have it together, how far it goes from soft swing to complete we should discuss and get everyones views.&nbsp; Perhaps to make it less intimidating and 'planned' it could happen in the media room - they all go into watch a movie or a TV programme - I chose the seating to naturally bring them together as couples - ( rather than cinema chairs) and it is very playroom style in effect too.&nbsp; The other option would be the pool - which could either begin with skinny dippiing and therefore reduce inhibitions etc - or a more restrained bikinis and trunk affair! the disadvantage there is it that it is not so connected and comfortable to sustain it - although it could always start in the hot tub/jacuzzi and then graduate to the main shared bedroom - which has the advantage they might end up sleeping together in the same room. Time for eveyone to speak up!<br><br>I agree time is something to keep an eye on - I think we need to play a bit more before we get a feel for the game times versus real time ratio, I think with such a small group and good ooc communication we can work it out&nbsp; - the only time it gets difficult is when we fracture off - and then we will have to keep everyone informed as we go - if we keep it fluid to begin with and everyone works at making it cohesive we can see how we go.<br><br><br>I would estimate we are just over&nbsp; half way through our time in the hall - so after some more exchanges eventually Angus will call dinner. Does that sound about right?

				I really like the idea of skinny dipping lol ...Perhaps even a game of Truth or Dare that turns naughty? I know the idea of Truth or Dare is kind of silly but perhaps it starts off being an ice breaker and it dives into the X-rated? ;)<br><br>Also, I really like the idea of informal dinners. I was going to ask, DD, who is cooking breakfast? Because I was thinking that while the girls are in the bedroom having a girl talk one of them could bring it up?...Maybe say that the girls should wake up a little bit before the guys and have breakfast ready for them? It will give the girls time to bond and have time together and then it will also show the guys that the girls are ready to 'dive' into this experiment?<br><br>But if you already had someone set for breakfast then nevermind! lol Just ideas bouncing around in my head. :-)

				yes with the breakfast - it is only for the first day that Cathy is doing it - as we will be able to write lots of them afterwards!&nbsp; And the characters can work out who does breakfast when etc as they go&nbsp; - as it could change quite a bit too for instance it could start all the girls coming down, but end up with them taking it in turns, or one of them is more an early riser than the others etc - also I was hoping Nicci could be the lead where cooking was concerned (as per her bio) and Mari the general organiser and bosser about!&nbsp; Lol - I think Nicci will volunteer to the first dinner (with&nbsp; help), so then everyone will find out she is a great cook.&nbsp; There can even be special planned breakfasts (with treats like croissants) picnic breakfasts on the beach and, of course, breakfasts in bed - perhaps every Sunday - lol<br><br>It would be nice too if the boys did breakfast as a treat occasionally for the girls?&nbsp; <br><br>Truth or dare is a good ice breaker definitely - and when they have got into the game for a while the dare could be to get one of the girls to skinny dip - and then they all end up joining in - perhaps after breakfast and the tour - see Cathy off and then have elevenses, and go from there - or after dinner on the second night?

				Seems like the ladies are arranging things quite well.&nbsp; *smile*<br><br>I like the idea of truth or dare being started, but I also really like the idea of everyone snuggled up in the media room.&nbsp; In my opinion, it is more natural to begin intimate relations when people are close together.&nbsp; At least for the first time.&nbsp; Perhaps that is where the arousal for one another begins, with some light touching, then we play truth-dare and like DD suggested one of the dares could be to go skinny dipping.&nbsp; By this point the heat of being so close and casually touching one another, as a result of sitting comfortably together on plush sofas, would have built to the point that moving to the pool and getting naked together would seem less awkward for those characters who are not experienced in group sex.&nbsp; <br><br>After dinner, perhaps the 2nd night, would be a good time to gather in the media room, then a late night pool party begins.&nbsp; What do you guys think?<br><br>As far as breakfast, I like the idea of having breakfast and lunch be more casual while dinner remains a time that we can all come back together at a set time.&nbsp; I also was thinking that the guys might wake up early some mornings and surprise the girls with a breakfast.&nbsp; I have some ideas that might make that more fun as well, when the time is right.

				I'm cool with the seating arrangements and agree that having no one at the foot or head of the table makes sense.&nbsp; <br><br>I like the idea of truth and dare also and after reading TS's thoughts, I had an idea I'll toss out.&nbsp; &nbsp;How about they are in the media room after dinner, digesting and relaxing, but a horrible storm rages outside off the coast and at some point wipes out the power to the castle.&nbsp; Faced with time together but no electronic outlets, they light candles and begin to play truth and dare.&nbsp; The previous intimate/close setting will have already set the mood, which can be heightened by the candles.&nbsp; The storm may also frighten some folks or bring back bad memories, etc.&nbsp; Truth or Dare then slides into the skinny dipping and...depending on what night this happens...can slide into more intimacy if that's what was decided (if it happened this first night, I think we're all in agreement that it wouldn't go past skinny dipping).&nbsp; I thought about Elina's idea of a modified boys vs girls T&amp;D and it could be fun but it also sets up boundaries between the two groups (I can envision a scenario where the girls get mad because the guys pick on them, lol).&nbsp; <br><br>I'm good re: meals in the kitchen and being more informal, etc though maybe we want to think about making it a gradual transition.&nbsp; I've never been in a real poly relationship but I'm guessing that folks don't become a big happy family overnight.&nbsp; Just a matter of how realistic we want to make it; I'm good either way.&nbsp; The breakfast in bed idea is good too - either when folks are pairing off or when more than two are together - especially for those of us who don't mind a little food play with our intimacy.&nbsp;

				I agree natural transistions through the characters themselves will work best - which is why I poss thought starting by being full from breakfast and suggesting just a quick sarnie in the kitchen for lunch - and then as the atmosphere is so great and so relaxed the girls prepping/cookin' etc that one of the guys suggests always having breakfast in there and then another that lunch too would be better.&nbsp; Anything after that can happen in stages as we feel it works right<br><br>As far as the men cooking I agree it will be the girls job - it is sometimes nice though to do a special something for your girls - and it can always be strawberries and champagne or toast and marmalade rather then actual cooking - even a cup of tea or coffee brought to a submissive is a special treat - a reward for being a good girl - and perhaps we will be VERY good sometimes!<br><br>The storm sounds fun - I think on the second night it will be great - lol - I immediately thought that Marcus prob knows about the generator - but can't say anything *grins at mongoose*<br><br><br><br><br><br>

				Well, Nicci is back on the straight and narrow - nice character development everyone!<br><br>I know that TL and Mongoose have been talking about Marcus and how much or how little he shows his leadership qualities, balancing between showing his character and giving the game away to the more suspicious Bo. I think it will be intersting too, to see how the male characters come to terms with forming a triad partnership of leadership - as individually they are all leaders. It is always worth giving a heads up if you think your character is going to behave negatively - or you would like the situation to go in a particular direction - although it was my original inspiration - it is now our joint creation so please do throw in any ideas or concerns for everyone to ponder.<br><br>I am very happy that Mari is taking the lead for the girls - I think us three on our own will not have the same type of frictions the boys may well have. Nicci is very mercurial - so her moods may alter quite rapidly from one moment to the next - so don't be worried by her internal dialogue!!!&nbsp; *smiles*<br><br>So any thoughts about the meal?&nbsp; I thought it might be quite nice for one of the men - either Bo or 5th to suggested they each tell everyone about themselves - a hi my name is. and I.......&nbsp; sort of thing so IC we find out a bit about each other - what do you guys think? It could also lead to questions too - I suggest for the food itself it is wholesome (not dainty) but good quality, perhaps a tomato and basil soup to start with warm bread rolls, followed by chicken breasts wrapped in bacon and stuffed with mushrooms with roast potatoes, peas and caulfower and then a choc pot mousse dessert with some raspberries - sound OK?<br>

				The meal sounds great.&nbsp; I like the idea of each person introducing themselves to the others.&nbsp; Maybe the others can follow up with questions if they have any?&nbsp; The posts would be shorter than we've been writing, though, more interactive.<br><br>I see some competition naturally developing between the men.&nbsp; There has to be that development into a partnership - they are too alpha to start out having such a relationship with each other.&nbsp; The one thing I don't want to see develop is favorites for the men or the women.&nbsp; I think we'll all have our own chores and roles within our family, and our own place, but I don't want to see where we start picking favorites.&nbsp; And I don't want anyone to be more important to the family than the others.&nbsp; What do you guys think?<br><br>As far as the women are concerned, I don't see competition developing between them.&nbsp; All three of them already seem too at ease with each other for that to happen.&nbsp; And they are all showing a lot of support to one another.&nbsp; <br><br>I've chatted briefly with DD about this, and briefly with Tootsie.&nbsp; I'm posting here so we can all get on the same page about contact between the women.&nbsp; Mila can be written as bi or straight.&nbsp; I didn't address it in her bio, just said she's still discovering her limits.&nbsp; I think she's the only one in the group who has not had sex in a group setting, so it's going to be new for her.&nbsp; I'd been thinking of some contact between the women if they are close enough to each other when we write the first sex scene.&nbsp; I thought holding hands, looking at each other.&nbsp; Tootsie (I keep typing Grape and then erasing it!) thought maybe even non-sexual kissing to show support.&nbsp; And she thought maybe at some point, Mari and Nicci could touch each other to expose Mila to women's role in a group sex setting.&nbsp; Thoughts?

				Just to clarify a couple of things, Bo also has no group sex experience. He's not suspicious, he's observant. And thusfar the guys have had no conflicts, though we can work that in, it shouldn't be necessary unless the others just want to. Also, I think having favorites without being exclusionary is more natural to group dynamics. Sorry if a bit direct, this phone sucks.

				yes sorry I meant observant TS - I meant that being more observant we don't want him to get suspicious <br><br>Any conflict which develops&nbsp; -yes there is none at the moment ((and btw 5th, I loved your responce to the situation with nicci and Bo and the way you shielded Mila) - the conflict, if it happens, can be more internal than external - my experience of dominant men getting together is that they do often have to struggle with getting the dynamics to work, I expect with bo's military background he has more experience with dealing with that too - but there is no hurry for that we can say when we think it might come up or have any specific plot ideas to do with that situation. <br><br>As far as group dynamics are concerned I agree that initially they will be drawn to the woman in their arms, as it were, as it is natural to be drawn to one person first - thanks for bringing that up TS (and don't worry about short phone dialogue we understand)&nbsp; - then once the group scene develops - the soft swinging is incredibly arousing - and very easily leads to cross feeding - so just as the women may touch or become involved it they are close enough - I would expect even in that first group scene they could be some real swapping and possibly some two on one involvement don't you guys?&nbsp; I must admit too, the voyeur aspect of soft swinging at the beginning will be great to write&nbsp; ;D<br><br>I agree with you two Elina and tootsie, that Nicci would find it normal to touch and fondle another woman in a group sex situation, and I will wait and see how it feels with her to see if she goes further - I wrote her as essentially straight - but she is loving and giving and very sensual I can't see her <em>not </em> getting involved, but I don't think she'd like, say for instance, the men directing her to full one on one girl action

				The meal idea is great (made me kinda hungry! ;) )<br><br>I'm with you DD, I think, like Nicci, Mari would be fine touching and caressing another woman but if it comes down to full on girl/girl action, she might not be so into it. Elina and I had discussed it a little bit and I had mentioned that perhaps some light fondling for Mila because she's so new at the same-sex experience. But aside from kissing and perhaps some petting, I don't see the girls having a full fledge orgy without the men.<br><br>An idea that came to me was perhaps (since Mila has never had group sex) is Mari and Nicci helping Mila undress. Perhaps light kisses and tender caress, letting her know she's doing well. And then once she's nude, 'presenting' her to the males/male. Like I said, it's just an idea. I have random thoughts pop into my head at the weirdest times. &gt;_&lt;<br><br>Oh! I really think the Voyeur idea. I...actually like a lot of the ideas being bounced around.

				the undressing of mila would be a lovely thing to do later - a great start to an evening!&nbsp; I wonder if during our truth or dare bottle game gradually everyone is asked some of the more intimate sex questions - like are you bi, have you have group sex, have you DP'd, do you like being spanked etc - we can always co-ordinate that on the ooc too to make sure everyone gets asked etc - that way they all know how they start?<br><br>We could even try and work out an an early evening (v late for me!) or a weekend morning that we got together and post fast - in a conversation style setting - for the truth or dare - we can have a group conference open at the same time to co-ordinate.&nbsp; Recently I played a story where the girl was blindfolded and has to guess who was doing the touching etc, to make it less meta and more a real 'game' I used a coin to toss and call whether she she got it right or wrong each time - which made it very real to write - especailly as she got 5 wrongs in a row!&nbsp; Something I would never have written.&nbsp; So if we do that bottle scene together, at the same time, I could actually use a spinner - so it plays real!<br><br>not to worry if we can't get together or anyone doesn't like the idea - it was only one of those toss it into the pot moments!

				I love the truth or dare thing, but so that we aren't posting it for a month real time, I think we're going to have to figure out a modified way to play.<br><br>Here's a thought.&nbsp; Not sure how it would go over.<br><br>Everyone is told to think of 4 question, 2 sexual and 2 nonsexual.&nbsp; Write them down on paper.&nbsp; Maybe an NPC or one of us then takes them and creates a questionnaire?&nbsp; We can coordinate the questions OOC.&nbsp; &nbsp;And then, all six sit together and each person takes turns reading their answers?<br><br>It loses the spontaneity of the game, which isn't great, but I also think it would be hard to get all 6 of us on at the same time for marathon posting.<br><br>Eh, I don't know... what do you guys think?&nbsp; Someone come up with different modifications...

				Yes i get you - <br><br>if we stuck to spin a bottle<br><br>we could make up a schedule of who was asked what in what order so lets say they have 6 questions <br><br>We post answering 3 questions each then post again with the 2nd three after everyone has had their turn- I can draw out of hat which order we go in when it comes to posting - and then draw again for the second time round (as the first two have the advantage of setting most of the scene) if we need to put something in that needs reacting to we can go back and edit our original posts too <br><br>or we could make up an entirely new game - that would work in this context as you suggested - so for instance a bit like consequesnces each person writes a question on the piece of paper, folds it over so it is hidden - then everyone passes them on and the next question is written and so on - you end up with five questions, one from each person being handed back to you (it could also be two questions each one sexual one not) then we can post normally answering the questions one by one first come first served.&nbsp; Again to make it simplar it could be one piece of paper with the same questions on for everyone.<br><br>Any other ideas?<br>

				Hmm... what if we take turns asking everyone a question.&nbsp; No writing down the questions or answers.&nbsp; Someone starts asking, and everyone just jumps in and answers.&nbsp; Then the next person asks, and everyone answers.&nbsp; That way, we're not writing in order.&nbsp; <br>If the questions are going to get racier as we go along, then Mila's will have to be early in the game.&nbsp; <br><br>Could even play "I Never"... you guys familiar with it?&nbsp; I would say "I've never ___"&nbsp; Could be anything from "been in a threesome" to "gotten a tattoo" to "gone skinny dipping"... everyone who HAS done it would take a sip of a drink.<br><br>We could play I Never as a social thing anytime, though - it doesn't have to be the first or second night.

				I don't mind that at all, I was planning for Nicci not to be able to sleep and to come down and do it that first night anyway.&nbsp; Although, we have dinner and lounge and billiards/pyjama party still to do tonight - it might be better for the first afternoon -after lunch and the tour etc?- what does eveyone think?

				Why is Marcus thought to be the leader?&nbsp; It seems to me that two other alpha males would not just lay back in this situation and let him become their leader.&nbsp; I know Marcus is a few years older, but that doesn't seem to be enough reason to give him the leadership position with the men.&nbsp; In fact, I was kind of hoping to see the men work more as partners rather than following a leader/having one they defer to.<br><br>I know he's taken the lead a little bit, which I think is natural for someone of his personality, but I'm not so sure that the other guys would then just defer to that.&nbsp; I don't necessarily see them being competitive or jockeying for position, but I also don't see either of them just accepting a leader, especially who, in every way is supposed to be their equal, and is a stranger to them.&nbsp; If a leader develops, I would expect that it would be over time, and earned.<br><br>*shrugs*&nbsp; My thoughts... anyone else have any on this dynamic?&nbsp;

				My thought exactly Elina, thank you. Even if, as owner of the estate, Marcus is to become the eventual leader, Vince would not be making that assumption at this stage. Bo certainly hasn't, but may over time if he feels its earned. Personally, I prefer a camaraderie of equals to develop, but even that will be earned.

				Since I'm writing Marcus, I thought I'd toss in my two cents worth:<br><br>I'm definitely not seeing him as THE leader for the group or even the men.&nbsp; Even though he orchestrated the experiment - based on what we know from the game's original idea as drawn up by DD - <strong>no one knows that</strong> and he has to be careful not to give that away in his posts.&nbsp; <br><br>That said, Marcus has learned how to be a leader - based on the bio I gave him (which was partly driven by the attributes DD asked for in her outline) - since he was a kid growing up in a wealthy family.&nbsp; He led a football team for four years and successfully created and led a highly successful business.&nbsp; Leadership skills are as ingrained in him as Bo's military trained skills and Vince's woodworking skills are to them.&nbsp; It is a big part of who Marcus is and one can't simply turn those skills off without continued effort and work.&nbsp; That's why, in my mind, he noticed Nicci's mood change and why he stepped in to help improve it.&nbsp; I'm always going to be walking a very fine line with Marcus using his leadership skills but not revealing his role in the experiment or stepping on the other guy's toes and he's going to fail at times....as he did when he stepped in to help improve Nicci's mood without talking to Bo about it first.&nbsp; <br><br>So, in summary, I definitely don't see Marcus as the leader and others shouldn't either unless they just take that from the leadership skills he displays from time to time.&nbsp; While I'd love to think that age means leadership I've met too many "elders" who couldn't lead if their life depended on it.&nbsp;

				This is Vince's idea... your welcome to agree or not<br><br>Here are his reasons. <br><br>1. Vince is a Middle son. His bio says easy going and dominant with women and a skilled Craftsman.<br>&nbsp;He will do all the behinds scenes and bond stuff expect.&nbsp; He even demonstrated that. He great with creativity. Thus the dance and the toast. He won't be the leader if he can give that head ache to someone else.<br><br>2. Bo hurt a woman's feeling on the first few hours of meeting everyone in public on the dance floor. <br>Definitely not showing leadership quality to Vince's mind.<br><br>3. Marcus went out of his way to console Nicci without kick Bo's ass or causing a scene.&nbsp; To Vince that is a leader.<br><br>So like it or not in Vince's mind Marcus won leadership by default.&nbsp; <br><br>Sorry to disappoint but you're not gonna see a fight for leadership subtle or otherwise from Vince. <br><br>What you will see from Vince is a defender of the weak and a protector of the innocent. A guy who wants more laughter in his life than fights and caring than arguments.<br><br>

				I agree, Marcus is going to have to continually walk that line.&nbsp; I imagine at times, he will overstep.&nbsp; That's why I liked his reaction to Nicci's distress so much - it seemed very in character for him to assess the situation and try to fix it.&nbsp; I think it's going to be overstepping, realizing he did, and then pulling back.&nbsp; I can actually see this happening with the other two guys as well.&nbsp; After all, they are ALL natural leaders.&nbsp; I think these actions and reactions are what is going to make this the development of a family rather than a big fat orgy.<br><br>As far as 5th's post - thank you for the explanation.&nbsp; It seems then that everyone is writing their characters' reactions as they think is right.&nbsp; Can I make a suggestion?&nbsp; Can we include some of these thoughts and feelings IC?&nbsp; So that there doesn't seem to be such a dichotomy?&nbsp; <br><br>Maybe it isn't necessary... *shrugs*<br>

				Yes, 5th, thank you for the insight.&nbsp; And I don't think anyone will be disappointed at not seeing any fights.<br><br>To everyone, I just like people to keep their character's perspectives as realistic as possible to what they would know.&nbsp; At least that is my style and what I enjoy from others.&nbsp; It is so easy when writing jointly to accidentally give your character a touch of knowledge from what you have learned by reading some other character's private thoughts.&nbsp; Trying to determine how much of those thoughts would be realistically observed in that character's expressions and then properly interpreted by your character is a tricky thing.&nbsp; Sometimes it would fun to imagine the expressions on the other characters face from their thoughts and then have your character completely misinterpret those expressions.&nbsp; Very similar to how Vince is completely misinterpreting Bo right now, which adds an interesting dynamic, since first impressions are more difficult to overcome.<br><br><br>

				Gosh so much to agree with!<br><br>I think that it is important not to cast any one male in the role of a complete 'leader' at this point.&nbsp; I think they will each lead more in different situations - Vince for instance is the only experienced BDSM master and I sure he will be the only who steps up when anything like that is involved and the other two men will enjoy learning from him.&nbsp; <br><br>At different times they will accede to each other - in this instance the older, slightly more sophisticated man who seemed to try and help Bo and Nicci came up heads with Vince, who is used to a family dynamic,&nbsp; another time it might be Bo don't you think?<br><br>Both Bo and Marcus have leadership qualities, in slightly different ways I would expect possibly that Bo might be more experienced with group men dynamics, soldiering does that, and I am sure outside he could dominate from both his his experience and his skill sets?&nbsp; I could see too that these two men could be very drawn to each other - recognising instantly when they react in certain ways and perhaps enjoying an even deeper level of understanding with a guy than they have had before - you could imagine the high fives and the looks they give to each other.&nbsp; The sort of - 'yeah I get you bro' which the three share.<br><br>Marcus is slightly more civi rounded - I think he could definitely have more experience with dealing with the women and mixed group dynamics.&nbsp; And possibly be a little more flexible than Bo and see things less in black and white perhaps?&nbsp; Vince on the other hand will recognise submissive needs better I would think, and read the girls that way before the other two do?<br><br>I think from what 5th has said about his character so far he is the most easy going, But will step up/step in if he thinks he has to - and will try a facilitate family harmony.<br><br>I love how different they are, that, as in real life, by rubbing up against each other they will smooth the edges down.&nbsp; And more misunderstandings will happen I'm sure, we already have one between Nicci and Bo too.&nbsp; Thank God we are not all angels (( looks for her halo – I'm sure I left it in here))<br><br>As Vincent has asked Marcus whether he wants to toast or pass it on to someone else to do it, Marcus needs to reply next and decide exactly that.<br><br>If you guys manage to post while I'm asleep I'll post Angus tomorrow - <br><br>night all, it's nearly 3am and I have an early start, I'm going off to bed , have fun guys x x x

				Hey guys! I'm so sorry I have not been posting in the OOC and adding me two cents! Work and then this weekend =/ Anyways!! I have read over all of the comments about the men and their leadership and the inner monologues and I agree wholeheartedly with what has been bounced around!!<br><br>I think, like DD said - each men will show their strength/leadership potential when they come to a certain spot where they are more familiar in. Like Bo - outside. Vince - BDSM and Marcus - his experience and demeanor. Personally speaking, I'm not one to do <strong>a lot</strong> of inner monologue but I do like the idea and, especially in this setting, think it will add some tension/spice until each person learns to read one another. Kind of what happened with Nicci and Bo that it had some of them focused on her. :-)<br><br>Once again guys, I'm really sorry I'm not much for the OOC right now =/ I read all the great opinions and I feel like a complete dolt because I can't come up with anything/think of something right now.&nbsp; It's a good thing you guys have the brains and you just let me tag along!!! ;D

				It definitely didn't bother anyone mongoose - and it had already been discussed OOC - so it would not be seen as that anyway<br><br>I only used it as an opportunity to bring the subject up - as it is one of those things that vary so much from player to player and can cause upsets.&nbsp; Most of us didn't know each other before we started writing together on this story - so this is the kind of thing that needs open discussion.<br><br>

				Morning everyone - what lovely posts to wake up to&nbsp; :D<br><br><br>I'm sorry Nicc's post is on the long side, I got carried way AGAIN!&nbsp; I think it is writing her post first, in the quiet of the morning, she's getting the benefit of my full attention!<br><br>Something that has been brought up - is fitting in side scenes. By that I mean - if just two players decided they want to have a scene perhaps very late at night when everyone is asleep - or slope off quickly&nbsp; ;D&nbsp; &nbsp; As we are not playing fuzzy time ATM it will be hard&nbsp; to fit them in.<br><br>We have a few choices - one is obviously not to have them - we can have a separate fuzzy time thread where we can finish/carry on with scenes that have been overtaken by the main events - or we can RP them separately on IM and then post them as one post in the real time frame - and of course there is real fuzzy time - although I really am not keen on having that here as the way the threads work on E are not condusive to that at all.<br><br>Any other ideas?

				I like being able to complete a scene or bit of character development that I've started, but sometimes my posting frequency doesn't keep up with others, least so far in the one other game in which I've played.&nbsp; So having a way to catch up in my character development without dragging others back in time appeals to me.&nbsp; I've not scened in IM before, but like the idea as long as it doesn't become too frequent that others start to feel excluded.&nbsp; As long as we try to write together as much as possible as a group, which is the true purpose behind the plot idea, then I think the occasional IM interaction between two individuals will be okay.<br><br>Fuzzy time confuses me, but I'm relatively new to this so can't really give an experienced opinion on it.

				Fuzzy time is when your character can be posted in scenes that happen at different game times but are running concurrently on the threads in real time.&nbsp; On E I think it is just too confusing as the set up makes it dam near impossible.<br><br>I understand about the YIM - and I will definitely bow to the group opinion on this.&nbsp; Examples when I have used it are:<br><br>1. We wanted to play a scene that had a lot of dialogue and action/reaction which we did quickly on YIM and would have taken days and days on post.&nbsp; <br><br>2. We wanted to squeeze in an extra scene without delaying the whole game<br><br>3. Played in advance to post when another player is absent.<br><br>4. Two people wanted to finish a scene when the rest of the game needed them to move on to something else.<br><br>All four times one of the people in the YIM cleans up the posts by talking out the names: and often putting the people in different colours here is an example of one I put into a story recently:&nbsp; &nbsp;http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=80247.msg3807548#msg3807548 (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=80247.msg3807548#msg3807548)<br><br>You will see that normally this story has quite long posts , but this YIM section is much shorter more interactive posts.<br><br><br>So for instance two or three characters may be having a sex scene in one of the bedrooms in the middle of the night.&nbsp; But it takes a long time and everyone else wants to move on, wake up and have breakfast and start a new day.&nbsp; The sex scene then leaves a marker post to add the ending. Then it is added as soon as possible - after it has been finished on YIM etc.<br><br>The drawbacks of doing this are that it can be divisive and take away the focus and concentration on the group part of the game.&nbsp; <br><br><br>Any more ideas/Views on this?

				I think if we put a "hold" post into the appropriate thread and then add in the RP from IM like you did in that example, it's probably fine to do that.&nbsp; What bothered me was serious character development happening that everyone isn't privy to OOC.&nbsp; But adding it into the thread helps matters.<br><br>That being said, I do think that it is likely to splinter the group a little bit, but as long as everyone is careful not to always focus on the same writing partner, we maybe could make it work.&nbsp; We could also have a "fuzzy time" thread, I suppose.&nbsp; We could do a hold post in the main thread and then link the correct portion of the "fuzzy time" thread?

				Sorry I'm behind on my post everyone.&nbsp; Yesterday was chaotic during the day and I spent my night concentrating on getting my NaNo project off the ground.&nbsp; I will make sure I post later today or tonight.<br><br>On the fuzzy time discussion, the phrase is completely new to me but I think I understand the concept.&nbsp; My only other group experience is in a more free-flowing setting so this sort of thing has never really come up for me.&nbsp; I see the benefits of doing it by messenger but that wouldn't work for me for a number of reasons.&nbsp; Though I'm on messengers a lot, I often walk away from the computer constantly (especially when I'm at work like now) and during the day, like Tootsie, I use a web program to access instead of a downloaded one.&nbsp; I also just prefer to use my IMs for chatting instead of RPing.&nbsp; I'm not familiar with IRC either though I could learn about it.<br><br>We definitely have to figure out some way to allow characters to go off and do their thing though.&nbsp; I know its a group plot based game but even in a large family, members often go their separate ways at times and its very feasible that two or more members might want to go off and have an intimate or non-intimate moment without the entire family being involved (I'm just guessing here, but I don't think anyone expects all the intimate scenes to involve all 6 members. Could be wrong on that though).&nbsp; I don't have a suggestion for how to do that though other than the ones proposed and they don't work so great for me.&nbsp;

				OK - been thinking about everything you all said and I propose a real flexible approach to start with - and see how it goes - but PLEASE if anything jars along the way or you feel it isn't sitting right speak up<br><br>So - I will start a fuzzy time thread - as soon as any one needs it - you just need to shout if and when you do.&nbsp; It will be extra important to head your posts there not only with where and who but WHEN<br><br>Then anyone who wants to - to try it out at first - can do a scene on IM or IRS chat (I confess I have never used the IRC chat so someone would have to hold my hand) <br><br>So it will be a 'suck it and see' approach (ohhhh I do so hope that sounds as good to you as it does to me! )&nbsp; and we'll see how both those two things work out.&nbsp; <br><br><br><br>Mongoose I agree totally about couples and threesomes etc needing to go off and do their own thing.&nbsp; In fact I thought it might be a good idea OOC to make sure we all get alone time with each character near the beginning so we establish one to one bonds - I don't know if you guys think the same.<br><br>I have to say I am looking forward to it immensely!&nbsp; ;D

				OK - GM hat on<br><br>I just answered a PM from 5th and in it I said this......<br><br><br><em>There is no prob at all to Vince's reaction to Bo, or how your character feels about it - but to jump back in time means everyone else has to edit their posts and shouldn't be done unless you talk about it on OOC first and they agree with it (that way you can also explain your reasons for wanting to do it) <br><br>The other way - is like Nicci did in her last post - react to what is in the other posts - and find a reasoning behind the reaction being delayed a little - a contrivance as it were - which is the normal way of playing it in a group story.<br><br>So - 5th - no probs with your character's reaction&nbsp; - but NO jumping back in future please!&nbsp; Not without arranging it!</em><br><br>So obviously that is to everyone!&nbsp; or you get NO cookies!<br><br>*kisses*

				OK - so it doesn't take too long to shake this out and then do all the edits etc - TS is going to post next, with Bo reacting all the posts in the order they are written - we'll leave everything as is this time - as I need to go to bed in less than an hour or I might turn into a pumpkin and I won't be around later to coordinate anything more fancy<br><br>thanks guys x x x

				If that's how you think she'll react, I'm fine with it but....seems to me she's probably tougher than you're giving her credit for given that her family and ex all walked away from her and she survived instead of crawling into a shell and becoming a total loner.&nbsp; Just my observation.&nbsp; I'm good however you want to play it.&nbsp; <br><br>If she flees though, and Vince follows, perhaps he can coax her back to the group....<br><br>Edit:&nbsp; Or the video diary thing Tootsie mentioned<br><br>Ultimately, though, for me at least, both of you should play it the way you think your character would play it.

				I assume that someone would go after her.&nbsp; Didn't know if it would be Vince or Bo, or maybe the girls while the boys went and fought it out over a game of billiards.&nbsp; <br><br>My mind definitely says that she wants to run, though.&nbsp; I just don't want to write it that way unless I know that our GM is okay with it, since we hadn't planned on that reaction.&nbsp; Just seems more realistic, with what is going on.&nbsp; Nicci's idea of the questions is a good one, obviously.&nbsp; One we've discussed and planned OOC.&nbsp; But in light of how Mila feels right now, like she tried (again) to express her her sexuality and was judged for it, I can't imagine that she'd fall easily into giving open and honest responses.&nbsp; <br><br>And 5th, the confrontation between Tool and Bo is what she'd be running from.&nbsp; As far as knee-jerk reactions, I would imagine that's exactly what would happen if this were real.&nbsp; <br><br>I love how everyone's writing this scene out.&nbsp;

				We've discussed that it is okay for characters to <strong>occasionally </strong> misinterpret the motivations of other characters IC.&nbsp; But for the sake of OOC I would like to clarify, as I think Bo's statement has been misinterpreted.&nbsp; It was not a knee-jerk reaction with all the negative connotations associated with such reactions.&nbsp; In that post in which he made his remarks, he took some time to consider the conversation that was taking place before speaking.&nbsp; It was his intent to change the direction of the conversation, which he did, and to affect the mood in order to encourage a dialogue that he felt would be more productive toward building real relationships, which is yet to be seen.&nbsp; &nbsp;If I wasn't clear enough in my posts regarding his motivation and thought process then I apologize.&nbsp; I thought I had been.<br><br>If a character wants to think he is behaving in an unthinking manner, or "spoiling" the mood, then that is of course fine.&nbsp; But it seems as if these judgments have been brought into OOC.&nbsp; The effect can be that of turning your character's thought process into a personal critique.

				In my mind, I do not see Bo's reaction as knee-jerk.&nbsp; I think he knew exactly what he was saying and why, and felt like his words were necessary.&nbsp; Everyone's responses to his words is what I imagined to be knee-jerk, including Mila's.&nbsp; She hasn't said a word, but that automatic "he thinks I'm a whore" reaction is pretty knee-jerk.&nbsp; If she had given herself a moment to think about it instead, she probably would have come to the conclusion that he didn't mean anything against her personally.

				The proof that the idea he had was appropriate and necessary in Bo's mind is based on his own past experience with relationships in general.&nbsp; What makes them stronger and what tears them apart.&nbsp; Obviously there are different types of relationships, but he only has his experience to draw upon.&nbsp; Enforcing would be a simple matter of majority agreement.<br><br>Elina, you said it better than I could so I won't repeat everything.&nbsp; But that doesn't mean I won't spank you.<br><br>5th, the only thing I'm asking is that we keep IC and OOC clearly separate.&nbsp; You prefaced this post with "IC - For Vince", but it isn't clear, to me at least, how much of what follows is IC as you seem to mix the two up in your last sentence, and seem a little defensive to Bo's judgments.&nbsp; Or is that just Vince being defensive?&nbsp; It's perfectly okay for Vince to be defensive, I'm just not clear in reading your OOC post.&nbsp; Please remember, Bo has his own ideas as a character that may not necessarily correlate with my own as a writer.

				<strong>Video Diaries</strong><br><br>Obviously one of the important themes in my story, when I was designing it, was the way six strangers, if they had the will to work at it, could make a go of coming together polyamorously.&nbsp; The concept of an arranged marriage in sextuplicate as it were.&nbsp; <br><br>Along with that came the difficulties and misunderstandings that were going to arise etc.&nbsp; Particularly – in my mind – between the three men. The dynamic between a man with two or three women in one poly household - and that of a more communal three men and three women is a much more unusual one – much more.<br><br>And of course I made it harder – as if it needed adding to – and made it sub/dom as well!<br><br>That is the main reason why I came up with the video diary.&nbsp; I wanted all the characters to be able to 'speak' their reasons and feelings – firstly&nbsp; for for the story itself – secondly for Marcus so see and have a chance of working with that inside knowledge ( a way into resolving things and bolstering esteem etc – knowing if there is trouble looming and being able to nip it in the bud too and lots more obviously).&nbsp; But there was also a third&nbsp; OOC reason -&nbsp; to give us as writers a better insight into the minds of the other writers and understand their characters better – and so be able write with&nbsp; our own&nbsp; in a well-rounded more informed way&nbsp; (closer to the way in fact that as if it was being written my one writer – as they would have all the characters in their head and be able to make use of that knowledge in the way the story is moved and plot lines and of course character development opportunities).&nbsp; I thought in the long run it would make us have more fun collaboratively driving the story forward together.<br><br>But that will take time.&nbsp; We will find out if the idea has any merit I am sure!<br><br><strong>Understanding Motivations and Actions</strong><br><br>In the meantime we have six characters thrown together who are getting more and more real in our heads and reacting to everything in their own sweet way.&nbsp; So I would ask that if at any point you are not sure of why someone has written something or need help with understanding it&nbsp; - ask it directly on the OOC or in PM.&nbsp; No beating about the bush.&nbsp; We can take it on the chin!&nbsp; Well, I take it better on my butt, but hey, that's my problem!<br><br>And if you are asked – remember it is not a negative feedback on your character – rather a sign that your co-writers are involved with you, your writing and wanting to be part of your processes etc.<br><br><br><strong>Recent Character Thoughts etc</strong><br><br>I have had a chat with Fifth and a brief one with Elina and TS too -&nbsp; about their characters' reasonings and I know Fifth wants to keep the detail of it for a video diary post and I expect from what TS has said he too will be saying most of it there (ooh I so look forward to our posts in there!)<br><br>&nbsp;In the meantime I think it might be helpful to set down&nbsp; what I think are important reactions&nbsp; to their three characters and mine........&nbsp; (and if I have got any of this not quite right from what you said please let me know ! And if Tootsie or Mongoose think any of your characters' reactions may need clarifying – please chip in !)<br><br><br><br><br><table class="bbc_table"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Vince:</strong><br><br>It was assumed that Vinces' romancing and flirting with Mila was also about more. Vince was not happy about that and he felt he needed to protect Mila from that assumption.<br><br>The only 2 people that talked about looking for ghosts was Vince and Mila so Bo's statement clearly was a prohibition directed specifically at Vince and Mila.&nbsp; &nbsp;Nicci, Marcus, Mari agreed with Bo that Vince and Mila should not go chasing ghosts from the house.&nbsp; There was no indication that it applied to anyone else. That's a problem. To single out a person or the minority in a polyamory unit without a debate and discussion is prejudicial to the team building that is trying to take place.<br><br>The group had no right to arbitrarily decide on no contact until the next night without discussion first - and that this was not the right time to even try to put rules in place.<br><br>His own experience has led him to believe that for polyamory to work it needs a more co-operative and less hidebound attitude as everyone's needs are going to be different<br><br>No-one answered his heartfelt plea not to make rules or decisions of any kind right now and to discuss it in the morning (He didn't seem to understand Nicci was agreeing with him either) <br><br>His thoughts about suicide and murder were a metaphor (actually almost exactly as TS suggested to me on YIM when I said I wasn't sure what they meant – they must be on the same wave length!) <br><br>That: Either the damage and the tension this arbitrary vote had caused everyone could be fixed&nbsp; or&nbsp; That the polyamorous relationships could be murdered in it's infancy by dictating without discussion something which could isolate individuals and prevent the more romantic sexual relationships from developing.</td><td> <strong>Mila</strong><br><br>Mila was already stepping out of her comfort zone with the flirting<br><br>She felt she had been shot down for it<br><br>That Bo assumed she was 'that sort of girl' and was going to jump into bed with Vince<br><br>Her baggage means she is too easily taken down a route where she feels put down and not valued<br><br>Her background also means aggression in males scares her <br><br><strong>Nicci</strong><br><br>Nicci agreed it was too soon to make any rules<br><br>She wanted everyone to get to now each other more first - And then be open about their fears and needs when they had slept on it<br><br>She agrees with Bo theoretically that they need to take things slowly, but she also feels they should do what comes naturally and open themselves up to each other emotionally and physically when ever it feels right.&nbsp; <br><br>She knows she shouldn't – but she also feels that it is a rejection of her from Bo.&nbsp; That he is disavowing the chemistry she feels is already between them which in some way is her fault and even worse that he might think she is behaving detrimentally to the group</td><td><strong>Bo</strong> <br><br>Bo comes to this experiment with an uncertain expectation of success, but a deep hope that the people putting it together would have a real understanding of what makes a group of people compatible, since he feels a need for this type of family relationship.<br><br>As the talk at the table turns quickly to sex, even in a suggestive way, he goes back to his roots and his conservative upbringing.&nbsp; He believes that lasting relationships are built on a foundation of friendship, not sex.&nbsp; The times he's had a woman sleep with him quickly, he may have enjoyed and even occasionally developed more feelings, but in most cases he was left with a feeling of cheapness, and a lingering doubt about her character.&nbsp; He not only expects more from this group, but feels more is necessary in order for 6 individuals to truly become a family.&nbsp; Setting the standard early on seems prudent.<br><br>He has already developed a strong connection and desire for Nicci, and a strong interest in learning more about Mari &amp; Mila as well.&nbsp; Looking at Nicci, he realizes more deeply how much he wants this group to work.&nbsp; He decides to deepen the sincerity of the conversation by steering it away from the light sexual banter.&nbsp; His offer to postpone sexual activity was made lightly, but with a honest desire to see relationships develop over the long term.<br><br>In his mind, his words were a reaction to the general direction of the conversation, and a desire to change it.&nbsp; They were not aimed at anyone specifically, and the thought that someone might construe them as an insult, or that he would be implying that anyone was a whore, just didn't enter his mind.<br><br>He still feels he was right change the direction of the conversation.&nbsp; Though the manner in which his words were received was not the manner in which they were given, and he is disappointed in that.&nbsp; Even beginning to get a little angered inside that such assumptions were made regarding his intent.</td></tr></tbody></table><br><br><br><strong>Finally</strong><br><br>I think it will take a while – not only for our characters to bed down, but us to understand each other fully on the ooc – the more we can talk here the more we will learn each others way of using language, how we plan to take our characters forward, feel able to ask questions and support each other.<br><br>So please, talk talk talk!&nbsp; <br><br>Yeah – I know -not as much as me – I promise to stay quiet for a while and let you guys have a word in edgeways......<br><br>well for a few minutes.........<br><br>two minutes?............<br>

				There is a certain lack of integrity in my explanations of Bo's IC motivations for his comments at the dinner table.&nbsp; Because his true motivations came from all of us in our OOC discussion.&nbsp; My sole reason as the writer to have my character make those statements was that he seemed the most logical choice considering his background to insert that element into the game.&nbsp; As I recall, we all discussed that there wouldn't be any sexual relations on the first night.&nbsp; That we would wait, and perhaps on the second night have a game of truth/dare that migrated into something more intimate.&nbsp; It seemed to me that it was going to be necessary for one of the characters to actually introduce that idea to the game.&nbsp; Bo seemed the logical choice.&nbsp; So I did it through him.<br><br>With the reaction that he got, it feels as if he has fallen on his sword for the sake of the game.&nbsp; It is not a reaction that I expected, nor wanted, for introducing an element that we had all discussed ahead of time.&nbsp; While writing with the tension between the characters has a certain appeal, having my character labeled judgmental for doing what I thought we all wanted is a surprising result.<br><br>My obvious mistake was in not making it clear in OOC first what I was going to do.&nbsp; Perhaps everyone else's mistake was in forgetting what we had discussed and not making an effort to have that element accepted more smoothly into the game once Bo had introduced it.&nbsp; Which, frankly, is what I expected when I wrote it.&nbsp; And I don't have any real suggestions on how this can be "fixed" or if it even needs to be done so quickly.&nbsp; I'm trying now, as in my last post, to write Bo working through it, and maybe that will be enough.&nbsp; But I thought it helpful to remind everyone else of what we had discussed as well.<br><br>In any case, it is hopefully a good lesson learned for all of us as to why good OOC communication is important.&nbsp; Especially in a game such as this where we can not be an island unto ourselves, even when our characters are stuck on one.&nbsp; I'll play the "I'm new to this co-operative writing" excuse card and try better next time.<br><br>Thank you DD for doing such a superb job of keeping things on track.<br><br><br>edit:&nbsp; I have a whole stack of those excuse cards, btw.&nbsp; If anyone needs to borrow one sometime, just let me know.<br>

				I feel like I should address this, TS, since it is my character who feels judged.&nbsp; <br><br>I, as a writer, knew exactly why Bo suggested waiting until the next night.&nbsp; I had not forgotten our OOC conversations.&nbsp; In fact, I was a large part of the OOC discussion, as I was one who wanted the first time to not be the first night, and to be in a group setting.<br><br>However, the way you wrote Bo's reaction:<br>1) takes the spontaneity out of the game the next night leading to sex.&nbsp; Bo's already made a suggestion as to the timeline, and so, at least Mila will be hyper-aware that she's expected to have sex the next night, possibly.&nbsp; I'm not sure how to bring the spontaneity back into it once someone says 'why don't we wait at least a night and a day' or if we even need to, and<br>2)&nbsp; Mila's reaction was normal for her.&nbsp; I don't feel like the others are thinking Bo judgmental, with the exception of Vince.&nbsp; Mila's reaction was negative, but it didn't turn really bad until Vince jumped in.&nbsp; Both Bo and Vince were trying to be helpful, and she reacted poorly not because of them but because of her past.<br><br>As a writer, I know that Bo meant no insult to her.&nbsp; I completely get your motive, TS, and even agree with it.&nbsp; But along with it comes an honest reaction from my character, just as yours was honest for your character.&nbsp; I do not think that Bo owes Mila an apology.&nbsp; I don't even think he should give her an apology.&nbsp; If she feels like she deserves one, she can very well get off of her high horse and figure out that everything said is not directed towards her.<br><br>What I think it will take for it to be fixed is for them to have about two minutes together for him to explain that he did not mean to insult her, and for<em> her</em> to apologize to<em> him</em> for misunderstanding him and reacting the way she did.

				Thank you, Elina, I appreciate your comments.&nbsp; Reactions could have been made to facilitate the introduction of the planned idea better though.&nbsp; Just like Bo introducing the idea of waiting at least a day was generated by me, so too a more receptive reaction in other's characters could have been generated by the authors of those characters.&nbsp; We are the creators, after all.&nbsp; I think a more natural reaction for Bo would have been to continue participating in the sexual banter, and if I wasn't writing to a strict "script" then I likely would have gone that route.&nbsp; Any removal of spontaneity happened in the ooc planning stage.<br><br>Also, the other characters may not be directly labeling him 'judgmental', but glossing over the tension and even in internal musings expressing discomfort at what is going on, just makes me feel like he is becoming more of an outsider.<br><br>Try to understand from my perspective how surprising this all is.&nbsp; I write into the story what I thought we had all discussed, and then suddenly find all the others writing shock and outrage into their characters.&nbsp; Natural or not, it doesn't make a ton of sense from a "big picture" perspective.<br><br>What it make me want to do, so as to avoid in the future this feeling that I'm left out to dry for trying to move things in the agreed upon direction, is to go back completely into the "this is most natural so my character is going to do this" mode and let the story outline be damned.&nbsp; But I'm not sure that six of us doing that will bring about the results that we hoped for when joining this project. <br><br>&nbsp;

				I think DD will need to weigh in on this, but I don't think you should be selling your character out to force the story arc.&nbsp; I think you should write him as is natural, and if it is messing up the story arc, then we talk it out OOC before the post.<br><br>And it isn't like the story arc is set in stone.&nbsp; If something isn't working, it isn't working.&nbsp; So we rework it.&nbsp; <br><br>And I will disagree - something can be preplanned OOC and still be spontaneous in the story.&nbsp; Had things played out as planned, the flirting would have continued through dinner, the men would have gone to play pool and the girls for their slumber party.&nbsp; Then the next evening, they would have played games and things would have gotten racy and led to sex.&nbsp; *shrugs*&nbsp; That's just my opinion.&nbsp; I mean, if it was just about pulling back, it could have just as easily been, to Vince's question about whether the other men would be ghost-hunting that night, to react by saying "Oh, not me," and then changing the subject.<br><br>And I'll say this in reaction to your newest post, which was posted while I was typing this:&nbsp; we <em>should</em> be having fun.&nbsp; And even if Bo is feeling like he's the odd one out at this moment, I do not see that lasting.&nbsp; I know that I am attracted to his personality, and that is extremely likely to show in Mila's reactions to him as they get to know each other.&nbsp; And I have a feeling that all of us are feeling a little like that right now, you and 5th probably more than the others, but still.&nbsp; We're new at writing together.&nbsp; We'll get there.

				Ok, this is going to be a long post but I thought it best to put all of my thoughts on paper as I had them.&nbsp; If something doesn’t make sense, let me know.&nbsp; It’s 1:00 am here and I’m half brain dead at the moment.<br><br><strong>DD</strong> – Thank you for the great summary of IC thoughts for Mila, Bo, Vince, and Nicci.&nbsp; It’s always neat to look back at an RP and see reactions as they played out in real time.&nbsp; Of course, seeing something like this during the course of an ongoing game can also have the potential for a negative risk.&nbsp; Specifically that the very real possibility exists that writers will gut check their reactions before they write them now, thus losing some of the “reality” of their character actions and thoughts and may try to right the “perceived wrongs” of the past – which may or may not be wrongs at all.&nbsp; Also, I think the idea of the diaries has merit and should be tried but I also don’t want to see writers stop writing their characters internal thoughts of the immediate moment.&nbsp; To me, the diaries serve as an opportunity for a character to reflect back on what has occurred and talk about what they hope happens in the future.&nbsp; Maybe cover their fears and what makes them nervous plus their joys, etc.&nbsp; Real time thought processes should be noted in posts as characters have them though.&nbsp; That’s my opinion at least.&nbsp; As for the need to clarify any of Marcus’s thoughts/actions I don’t think it exists – or rather I’m not in the position to know if it does since to him it makes perfect sense; if, however, it doesn’t to anyone else, let me know and I’m definitely willing to explain where his head was at that particular time.&nbsp; <br><br><strong>TS</strong> – You’re a damn good writer.&nbsp; I’ve said that to you before and I mean it.&nbsp; And like all writers, you’re feeling very protective of your character while also trying to play him as true as you can yet have also taken on the burden of trying to keep the game true to the “script”.&nbsp; Personally, I don’t think anyone, including Vince, ganged up on Bo (anymore than anyone ganged up on Vince), though I thought Vince’s reactions and then 5th’s were a little more heightened than they needed to be .&nbsp; I think Bo made a suggestion, perhaps not handled as smoothly as he could have handled it (trust me, Marcus would have probably handled it worse), and it irked another character.&nbsp; That character reacted accordingly and quickly (with the same type of ire that Bo displayed in his last post; Vince just got there sooner) which created a tense situation.&nbsp; Yes, we had talked about a “plan of action” among us but as any good military man knows (and something Bo eluded to in one his earlier posts), all good plans go to shit fast in the first few moments of putting it into action.&nbsp; That’s what happened here.&nbsp; Bo chose to initiate the plan of waiting to get intimate until the next day but, like all good plans, it didn’t go the way it was supposed to – Vince reacted, creating tension, and then everyone else reacted to the tension.&nbsp; The plan was completely forgotten in the face of that, as was Vince’s suggestion to wait until tomorrow to talk about rules and guidelines.&nbsp; AND THAT’S WHAT MAKES THIS RP SO DAMN GOOD.&nbsp; I put that in caps because it needs to be emphasized.&nbsp; That entire dinner scene was so realistic it was unbelievable.&nbsp; Think back to all those family get-togethers where mom and dad (or mom/dad and son/daughter) started fighting and things got tense.&nbsp; What happened?&nbsp; People got quiet, failed or stilted attempts were made to try and lighten the mood, and chances are at least one member got up and left.&nbsp; That’s what happened with us.&nbsp; Hell, let’s face it, Bo’s way of introducing the plan was awkward – there were a million different ways it could have gone – but what followed was perfectly normal as were his reactions to the other character’s reactions&nbsp; (I LOVED his comment about Marcus as peacemaker and inane questions – it was sooo true.&nbsp; I can remember myself thinking like that on many occasions in similar life situations).&nbsp; <br><br>Here’s the thing that we ALL need to remember.&nbsp; We are 6 writers involved in a game and managing 6 characters.&nbsp; We have an idea who these characters are but they know themselves better AND they are learning and growing each post we make.&nbsp; I’m all for having a loose outline for a game BUT if we script this thing to death it will get old fast.&nbsp; Right now, we’re scripting in OOC but not settling on who is taking us from one scene to another.&nbsp; Is it DD as GM?&nbsp; Is it me as the writer for Marcus?&nbsp; Is it whoever takes up the charge that particular moment?&nbsp; I think one reason we seemed to wallow in the dinner scenes was because no one knew who was responsible for moving us to the next scene (the other reason, of course, was because I think it was entirely realistic that it played out that way).&nbsp; I know I keep waiting for DD to introduce the “transition scenes” or make it clear that she wants someone else to do it (like she did when she asked one of the guys to move us into the dining room) but I’ve never voiced that on OOC, which was a mistake.&nbsp; We're still in the dinner scene so maybe we should decide that before anyone else posts.<br><br>Lastly, I want to echo something Elina said.&nbsp; We ALL need to play our characters the way we think they would play AND that is going to change from time to time.&nbsp; I know Marcus has surprised me a few times where I had an idea for my post in my head but by the time he was done reacting/thinking that post had changed.&nbsp; Let’s not try to force our characters in any one direction in advance.&nbsp; Let’s read the posts ahead of us, have an idea what we want to write, and if it changes in a way that doesn’t radically affect the story (which should not be confused with the “script”) we post it.&nbsp; If it does radically affect the story, we save it and throw it up in OOC (the way Elina did when she asked if it would be ok if Mila ran to her room) before we post it.&nbsp; Sometimes another post will sway us before we post (as it did with Elina who changed her mind after 5th posted) and sometimes it won’t.&nbsp; Of course, handling things this way means we may not be able to post daily, as DD has asked in the beginning, but I would personally want to see slower posts that kept the story on track than fast posts that derailed things because no one waited for confirmation before proceeding.<br><br><strong>Bottom line</strong> – let’s let our characters become the people they will become and stop thinking so much.&nbsp; Let’s have fun as Elina said.<br>

				mongoose .. please .. stop .. you had me at "a damn good writer."&nbsp; &nbsp;*snicker*<br><br>Well, you two are demonstrating that you have much more experience at this than I.&nbsp; Thank you Elina and mongoose.&nbsp; I really am enjoying Bo, and writing with all of you.&nbsp; Mongoose, very nice post and very good advice.<br><br>Admittedly, I did misinterpret what Elina and 5th were trying to do in their flirting at the table.&nbsp; It seemed to me that the track of what we had been planning was being lost, which I think was understandable considering the nature of the conversation and that neither author had come out in ooc saying that they weren't going to run off together that night.&nbsp; From the talk of the characters, I was beginning to believe that is exactly what was going to happen.&nbsp; So, like a gorilla with a sledge hammer, I killed the flea.&nbsp; Lesson learned.&nbsp; Next time I'll ask the flea first if he remembers that he isn't suppose to come on stage until the next scene.<br><br>Even reading back just now, I know both writers claimed they weren't going to have their characters run off together that night, but without that discussed in OOC, I'm not sure what else I was suppose to think reading this line:<br>""Tonight, seems ripe fore duh likes ah both." Vince glanced from Nicci to Mari as he asked them,&nbsp; "Wouldn't you both agree?" <br><br>[Tonight seems ripe for both. Wouldn't you agree]"<br><br>Seems fairly obvious.&nbsp; But hey, I still could have asked in OOC before making my now infamous post.&nbsp; In any case, we can work forward from here, hopefully with better communication.<br><br>

				Okay, so I'm going to put in my two cents and I really hope I don't hurt anyone's feelings. And if I do, please know that it's not my intention, I just want to get it all out in the open and hopefully make my feelings clear on this.<br><br><strong>Marisol</strong> - While she was feeling perfectly fine at the beginning of the dinner, she had come to see the way Vince looks at Mila and Bo looks at Nicci and she's feeling a bit rejected / or...better yet, like a tag-along. Once or twice she has commented or asked a light question and has been ignored. Granted, it might not be the intention to ignore but she is struggling with the sudden insecurities of maybe not being accepted in the group. She took no offense to what Bo had said because she knew that it was just a misunderstanding, but the sudden response from Vince <em>did</em> make her feel uncomfortable. Then again, she is slowly starting to come to the realization that she might have jumped the gun a bit too early with the group. She thought they would all be ready for this kind of relationship and is slowly starting to realize that some have not even experienced a poly relationship. The Video Diary will be her haven, a place where she can speak honestly while she keeps her emotions and her thoughts in check in front of the group. Because the dinner has shown her that she needs to still be a bit...guarded.<br><br><strong>The OOC</strong> - Honestly, I think the major misunderstanding is between what our characters are thinking and what we ourselves are thinking. Like someone above me mentioned, we're Six different individuals writing about six different people. There's going to be tension and a few misunderstood circumstances, but I think we have a REALLY good group and we just need to learn not to take things to heart. If Mari says something to or about Mila, then it needs to be understood that Mari isn't talking about Elina. Mari is talking about Mila. And I think that's where some of the confusion is coming in. Also, something else that was mentioned...I don't know about ya'll but my character has a mind of its own. At the dinner table, if that had occurred in real life, I would have reacted like Nicci and would have excused myself. Mari instead forged on and went to keep a casual atmosphere. Or try to. :P<br><br><strong>Over all</strong>- I LOVE this group story and I am enjoying the concept of it. My main concern right now is the inability to move forward from this. I feel like we're trying to analyze it and make sure that we have all our ducks in a row before we move forward and unfortunately, more ducks keep appearing. While I think that it is GOOD that we all talk and make sure we're all in the same page, beating a dead horse is serving no purpose.<br><br>I think if we keep an open mind on the realization that we are all VERY different and we are writing six <em>unique </em>characters, we will be okay. And trust me, I'm all about open communication. If Mari says or does something that is not understood then I expect and want someone to call me out so I can explain my actions and also so I can give them an insight on Mari's way of thinking.<br><br>And DD, if this isn't what you were asking and I went on a tangent...yeah, you have permission to kick my ass over PM/IM so I can do what you WANTED me to do! ;D

				I also have limited group game experience - one where it lasted for about 4 days and then imploded over group dissension (which is NOT where I'd categorize us at this point - here's were just feeling each other out - or up if you prefer - and trying to establish lines of communications) and then a very loose group game.&nbsp; This is only my 2nd plot driven group game.&nbsp; My observations are just from my overall RP experiences.&nbsp; <br><br>I'm with Tootsie though - the time to move forward into the next scene is now.&nbsp; We've accomplished what we needed to with these discussions and can now get on with the fun!

				Thanks guys so much for all the replies - what a fab bunch you are.&nbsp; <br><br>Briefly, what me be brief?&nbsp; - I know - very unlikely&nbsp; ;D) <br><br>I want to say thank you to TS for trying to do IC what we had discussed OOC together&nbsp; - and more than anything thanks to Mongoose - for showing me that I am more to blame for this than anyone.&nbsp; I should have ended that discussion on the OOC, clearly stating how it was going to happen - or ask for someone to help it happen.&nbsp; So sorry guys&nbsp; - Mongoose is right I should be more proactive in communicating how scenes should be arrived at.<br><br>As you all know I am a beginner when it somes to RP let alone being a GM so all your help and advice is very much appreciated.&nbsp; And you are all very welcome to kick my butt too!&nbsp; (*kisses Tootsie cute derriere* as no kick is needed - thank you for your post hun)<br><br>As far as moving this scene - I am intending to get Nicci to tell everyone when she comes back that Cathy is serving tea and coffee in the lounge when they are ready.&nbsp; She has already arranged for a pad and pen to be in there too - but she will not be instigating the questions idea as she feels she has done a crap job with her suggestions so far.&nbsp; So I thought it would be nice if Mari carried the ball on that one - her background in a large family and understanding everyone well I thought might make her want to carry on with the idea?&nbsp; If not Tootsie we'll put it up for suggestions<br><br>I think too it would be nice to aim for a real boys getting to know you session when they play billiards - where the aim is also to bridge any divide and any bad feelings left over from earlier - guys on their own can ask direct questions perhaps that they wouldn't be comfortable with in front of the girls.&nbsp; I think too it would be a good way of drawing a line and moving on - I think we all know now where we are all at now&nbsp; and can work together at what happens from here.&nbsp; Finis.<br><br>So I think when it somes to moving the scene on after their time in the lounge - it seems in character for Mila to say she's tired and is off to bed etc?&nbsp; And the other two girls to agree so they withdraw?&nbsp; Perhaps Vince could suggest the billiards after they have gone?&nbsp; Maybe along the ideas of his own experiences going down to the pub for a pint, a game and some good 'crack'&nbsp; ?<br><br>To get the girls all together, I thought Nicci could go to their bedrooms about 30 mins later - and finding they are awake too tell them she is getting some hot chocolate and ask if they would like some - then Mari could perhaps invite them all to share it with her in her bedroom and have a girly chat?<br><br>I don't know if everyone has read HairyHeretic's GM thread one of the links had me in stictches&nbsp; &nbsp;- a list of things Mr Welsh is not allowed to do - this one I though was rather apt:<br><br><strong>Railroading: </strong> <br>262. When the GM forces the plot, I cannot make choo-choo noises. <br><br><br>&nbsp;;D<br><br><br><br>And just becasue I'm feelign silly - here's a taster of some more...........<br><br>•Aint No Rule: Mr. Welch loves to try this. The DMs, however, are rarely cooperative. <br>24. Even if the rules allow it, I am not allowed to summon 50,000 Blue Whales. <br>423. Even if the rules allow it, I cannot play a duck. <br>623. Even if the rules allow it, I cannot play a Dire Gummi Bear. <br>713. Even if the rules allow it, can't sink a battleship with a stapler. <br>948. Even if the rules allow it, I can't catch dropped cannonballs with my teeth without drawbacks. <br><br><br>•Dungeonmasters Girlfriend: Apparently the cause of strife more than once. <br>421. I will not convince the GM's noob GF to play a psychotic combat monster. <br>435. No bribing the DM's new GF with chocolate so he'll go easy on us. <br>1347. Hooking up with the gamer chick the Storyteller was angling for gets me banned from the game. <br><br><br>•His Dwarves Are Different. His Elves are too: <br>126. Dwarves do not count as burrowing animals. <br>188. I cannot play an elf with a Scottish accent, nor a Cajun dwarf. <br>211. If at any point if my dwarf takes on the mannerisms of Macho Man Randy Savage, he dies. <br>294. My dwarf is not claustrophobic, likewise, my elf is not agoraphobic. <br><br><br>•Incredibly Lame Pun: Guilty so many times <br>205. My 3rd ed. Red Wizard is not allowed to start a business named Thay Co. <br>751. If the party has to pose as classical German composers, I will not declare "I'll be Bach". <br>1458. The ability to mimic other people's luck powers does not make me a karma chameleon. <br>1657. My halberdier is not guisarmed and dangerous. <br>1660. Even if we just stole all their alkaline chemicals, that does not mean all their base belongs to us. <br><br><br>&nbsp;;D

				Since we're disclosing I'll toss in my bits.<br><br>I was on line in IRQ Chats when the internet was MS DOS and IBM was the king of puter towers.&nbsp; It was monochrome then. Green or Black screen with white font in Times Roman.<br><br>I have over 20 years of writing in groups as both a writer and GM, both live action and forum.&nbsp; I've managed fleets of forum threads. The only difference in what happens in other places and here is the content of the writing. PG versus&nbsp; Adult outloud. This is not my first poly group. <br><br>Currently, I am writing in PG elsewhere and various genre on other sites as well as several threads on E. <br><br>I am not new to the problems inherent in these things. I don't spend much time chatting. I prefer to spend time writing in the story and stretching with a new character. I shut up when I see it is useless to talk. <br><br>I am not the GM in this game. Nor do I want that headache. I was trained by a strict GM that the GM had the final word. And I am good with that. <br><br>I was also taught that when you realize you're digging a hole for yourself or your character (literally or figuratively) the first rule is:<br><br>Stop digging. <br><br>I am enjoying the story and hope to continue. <br><br>Good to hear from everyone!!<br><br>

				Thanks Fifth - actually I find all the ooc posts really helpful so I hope you can treat me to quite&nbsp; a few&nbsp; &nbsp;;D you did say the GM's word was final!&nbsp; &nbsp;;D<br><br>Well now we have all had our twopennyworth - we can kick off our shoes and get the party going - <br><br>Talking of parties - Marcus can't reveal he knows where everything is&nbsp; - so things like music etc need to be 'found' by different characters - I think naturally most of them will be a bit curious so it will fun to see what comes to light!&nbsp;

				Elina - your posting was absolutely wonderful - coming home to dealing with so many long posts must have been such a nightmare - the questions have definitely pulled the novel writers out in all of us - the end is in sight though so we can all kick back and relax soon.&nbsp; Although it was quite a task - and definitely not something we'd all want to do very often - character building and relationship-wise it seems to have done a good job (If I ever suggest something similar again please spank me!)<br><br>When it comes to the written questions being over - I thought it might be quite natural for some ad hoc one-to-one questions to be asked - I don't know what you guys think, I know in this kind of conversation when someone mentions their job or their childhood it sparks questions and swapping/sharing of any shared or similar experiences.&nbsp; <br><br>I wondered 5th, if, as you are the last one answering whether you could end your post with a question to someone - and get the ball rolling as it were?&nbsp; <br><br>It seems a bit to soon for them to go off to bed - I don't know what everyone else thinks, it feels to me that they would stay together talking for a while now that a few doors are opened?<br><br>Anyway - thought please.....<br><br>D D x x x <br><br>And WELCOME back Elina!&nbsp; Hope you had a lovely time. *kiss*

				I'm not big on having a set real-life calendar day on which we will plan to end the evening.&nbsp; I'd rather the story just happen naturally and then at some point we'll all decide that we've done all we want to for one evening, like what we did when we moved from the dining room and then again when we moved from the lounge.&nbsp; Someone suggested it, and the rest agreed.<br><br>Having a set time to end the evening only makes me feel more pressured.&nbsp; But perhaps others disagree and have good reasons for it, which I'm certainly willing to listen to.&nbsp; It's just my initial opinion on the idea.

				Here's wishing everyone a loving and safe holiday!!<br><br>And....<br><br><br>.... the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so?

				All - I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday (if you celebrate Christmas) and are looking forward to New Year's.&nbsp; I've had a rather rocky holiday stretch so far and as 5th at least has noticed, my posting has dropped to nothing (last post on any RP was the 19th).&nbsp; I hope to be back in the swing of things very soon.<br><br>5th - your last post cracked me up and I'm choosing to take it as a joke, which I hope it was meant as....&nbsp; That said, maybe next time a PM to TS and I about our delays, or a post here, would have been a better way to handle it.&nbsp; I'm sure he's been as tied up with the holidays as I have.

				In regards to what happens next.&nbsp; I've heard there is a consensus to call it a night.&nbsp; I was rather hoping to post Bo suggesting to Marcus that the two of them go and say goodnight to the ladies while the 3 are still together.&nbsp; Sort of a reassurance that they 2 of them are still committed to the process.&nbsp; Not a big deal, but wanted to get that idea in OOC before everyone rushed off to bed.

Or do you want it to be sooner?<br><br>When it comes to the intro and tour, the next day, I'll write the housekeeper - I'll try not to make it too long and boring, but I think there are a few things I need to squeeze in - in terms of the mechanics of everything and the women's roles etc - I'll break it into chunks so everyone can get responces in.&nbsp; When it comes to Angus, the same thing, unless there are any volunteers do his bit, if anyone would like to do it I can give them a little list of the things he'll need to cover.<br><br>I think us girls are still going to plan to seduce you all boys, and get the ball rolling tomorrow night as per our discussions - Hopefully at one point in the day us girlies can have some time without the boys, even for a few minutes - perhaps after lunch, and Tootsie - do you think you could be the proactive one on that please?&nbsp; In Mari's role as the leader of the women, I&nbsp; think it would be great to come from her, after our talk tonight in the bedroom, she can settle it with the girls the next day, suggest the media room as laid back environment, and they can all enter in the pact they started tonight about sharing everyone etc&nbsp; - and I do hope you feel better soon Tootsie *hugs* <br><br>Mongoose - Marcus is obviously in the know that there is a standby, if you want to post anything before you go to bed about checking that, that is in hand, it is totally up to you, it can always be referred to in your thoughts any way you please.&nbsp; <br><br>Tootsie, not sure if I should post or not - I think I'd rather wait until you can do a quickie as there is the exit of Vince to respond to and the joint sex thing and Nicci's collapse into naughty humour!&nbsp; If you aren't well enough, then I will let the boys in -&nbsp; and Elina and I will entertain them - thanks Elina for all your help and support, you are a star.<br><br>Hope you all had a fab New Year's Eve<br><br>D D x x x <br><br><br>

				If we're going to still do the sex scene, I think it would be good to get girl time with Marikir's character, even if it's just a few minutes after the tour.&nbsp; They're going to need to be comfortable with him enough that it prompts Marisol to suggest they go on with the orgy, and for Nicci and Mila to agree it's still a good idea.<br><br>Ack!&nbsp; I'm out of town until tomorrow evening.&nbsp; See you guys tomorrow.

				*Slaps Mari's hand*<br><br>So as I was typing this morning, Mari decided that the boys should join the girls in the bedroom. Kinda unexpected, I know,&nbsp; but the damn Hispanic wench just slipped it in and I just wrote it in. lol&nbsp; It's not meant to be sexual in any way...just kinda make the environment a bit more cozy so perhaps the men and women could share their feelings or even some of their worries.<br><br>AND knowing Marcus and Bo (at least I think she know them ;) ), Mari feels like they would probably say no but the offer was thrown out. :-)<br><br>(This is why I shouldn't type before my coffee time. My characters take advantage of me! Tee-hee!)<br><br>Edit: Just read David's bio! Sweeeet!! Welcome Marikir!! So glad to have you!

				Okay DD, I made the edit so that Bo just sets Nicci on the bed without any mention of Marcus being there.&nbsp; I'm not very clear in my head the seating arrangements.&nbsp; I assume that the ones on the floor are near the bed, otherwise it would be a bit odd for Bo to carry Nicci there, as his intent was just to take her from the doorway back to where the others are.&nbsp; Not run off with her to the bed while everyone else is halfway across the room!&nbsp; *laugh*

				Mari has a sofa at the foot of the bed, and they are sitting right there.&nbsp; He didn't take her too far.&nbsp; It was cute, and I think it worked really well for the scene.&nbsp; Bo would have no idea that his bond with Nicci is making the other girls feel as they do.&nbsp; I think it's something they have to deal with, not something Bo has to adjust his behavior for.&nbsp; That's my two cents, at least. (One cent after taxes and accounting for inflation.)<br><br>At this point, Nicci is on the bed, Bo is standing next to it, and the others are sitting on the floor near the sofa.&nbsp; <br><br>There's a picture of Mari's room in the first post in case you need the visual.

				I'm fine with that.&nbsp; Adding Marikir's character in after he returns from vacation makes the most sense.&nbsp; If you want, when Marcus talks to Angus that night, he can discover that there's been a delay in getting David to the island.&nbsp; Perhaps a bad storm is hitting the town where they where they had sent the alternate members or something.&nbsp; Or David could be feeling too sick to travel - has the flu or something.&nbsp; I'm open to ideas.

				*kisses one and all*<br><br>OK guys Marikir comes back on Tuesday the 18th, so we need to plan our strategy.

				Great timing, since Marikir's back in town today and hopefully back online tomorrow.&nbsp; So if we all write our goodnight posts, we can start with the tour in the morning.<br><br>Couple of thoughts that might be questions:<br><br>- Do DD and Tootsie want to write the jog as part of their goodnight post, or post fuzzy time, or gloss over it in their morning post?<br>- I was thinking that maybe David arrives at the castle an hour or two before the tour and is quietly escorted to his room, just as the others were, and told to go down at 7am (or whatever time the tour is).&nbsp; And when we all get down there, Ms Taylor is waiting to introduce David and explain that he's joining the household.&nbsp; What do you guys think?

				This is what I arranged with Marikir Elina:<br><br><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=86017.msg4078733#msg4078733">Quote from: DiverseDesires on 02-01-2011, 19:45:05</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">I have put together a crib sheet for Marikir, as arranged, on PM with the major bits of plotting and OOC decisions we have made so far (the poor guy - you could SEE how long that PM is!)<br><br><strong>I also put after the original OOC description of how everyone was arriving and being shown around:</strong><br><br><em>So for you Marikir – if you can assume that&nbsp; Miss Taylor is with you on the boat, explains basically everything above, takes you to your room to dump your stuff and shows you the sharing rooms and tower etc.&nbsp; Then downstairs the main leisure rooms, including diary room etc, and then lastly to the dining room for you to meet the others who are in there having breakfast. So the only room you haven't been taken to that the others have is the kitchen – where they will all be going after breakfast anyway for the housekeeper to run through everything with them.</em><br></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br>We arranged that breakfast was 8am in the dining room - all done for them - there will be chafing dishes on the sideboard to help yourselves from, with cooked breakfast (scrambled eggs, bacon, sausages, mushrooms, black pudding, fried bread, baked beans and tomatoes) hot porridge, a selection of cereals, yogurt and fresh fruit, and on the table tea, coffee, milk, juice, butter, jams, homey and marmalade -&nbsp; and Cathy bustling in and out with fresh toast.&nbsp; <br><br>This is special treat breakfast for them all before the staff leave.&nbsp; A good time too for them to discuss what they all normally like for breakfast.<br><br>Ms Taylor will introduce David and tell them briefly what will happen that day and leave them to it.&nbsp; I think it would be nice for Cathy to tell them a gentleman will be joining them - perhaps in responce to a comment on the empty place - so they all have a little warning (of course Marcus knows already) <br><br>That way they have a good half hour to 45mins all together, including David before the tour and lessons etc. at 9am<br><br>I was planning to write a morning jog in my combined post&nbsp; - but I haven't talked to Tootsie about it - and now that Mari has asked it Nicci needs to respond to her question.<br><br>Let me know what you want to do Tootsie, Nicci will be saying yes, basically.&nbsp; It would be a nice scene to try and squeeze in if we can.&nbsp; <br><br>does that make sense?

				Done.&nbsp; Made it clear that Marcus was next, then left it open-ended as to the order of the women, so you three wouldn't have to post in any particular order.&nbsp; And Marikir can jump in and react to each intro as he sees fit.&nbsp; Hope that suits everyone.

				OK taken on board any requests and what I thought we could say happened is this:<br><br>The guys come back with the stores.<br><br>They all say goodbye to staff, sit down to lunch<br><br>Lunch:&nbsp; bacon, chicken and salad sandwiches, with kettle crisps (GB-to-US translation crisps=chips *smile*) warm large double choc and choc &amp; peanut butter cookies with vanilla icecream.&nbsp; Conversation mainly about what they had learned that morning, and little likes and dislikes.&nbsp; Overall positive, and relaxed<br><br>Directly after Lunch the guys unpack the stores and the girls clear away lunch.&nbsp; Nicci goes off to do her diary entry,&nbsp; David goes off for a walk, Bo decides to go over his diving gear and take it to the mud room, also rinsing out his own wetsuit and hanging it up etc.&nbsp; Marcus sits with Mari and Mila in the sitting-room. Nicci goes out for a walk after her diary entry, meeting David in the small cove closest to the castle and they sit and talk for a while.<br><br>Mari goes to do her diary entry leaving Mila and Marcus alone for a while.&nbsp; Nicci goes to the kitchen to do a bit more for tea, and look at some recipes, chatted with Bo as he came out of the back corridor and getting him a coffee for a while.&nbsp; David goes to do his diary entry, meeting Mari as she comes out, and they sit together in the library for a while before she leaves to check on supper and David goes in to do his entry.&nbsp; <br><br>Mari and Nicci, chat with Bo and finish off putting tea in the oven etc and Nicci leaves to lay the table in the dining room leaving Mari and Bo to talk.&nbsp; Bo goes to do his diary and Mari goes up for a bath and a rest before supper.&nbsp; <br><br>Mila also goes to rest and wash, meets Bo going up the stairs and they stand and talk for a while before they both go to their rooms.&nbsp; Marcus goes to the diary room, but on the way sees Nicci in the dining room and chats with her for a while.<br><br>She leaves to get freshened up and Marcus goes to the diary room to play back all the entries.<br><br>That, I think gives nearly everyone one to one time, and I thought David and Mila, could go down to dinner first and meet in the dining room and have some time together before anyone else arrives.<br><br>Dinner: Chicken breasts stuffed with mushrooms, cheese and thyme and wrapped in bacon.&nbsp; Creamy Mash and broccoli, Cauliflower, and small corn on the cob.&nbsp; Pudding Mila's choc brownies and a fruit bowl.&nbsp; The conversation occasionally gets more risque and some nice flirting goes on, some alcohol is imbibed and loosens them all up a little but not enough that anyone gets drunk.<br><br>Everyone helps clear the table and the girls do the dishwasher and wipe down etc, also making the punch and popcorn telling the boys to go choose a film. <br><br>Either by tacit or vocal agreement (up to you!) the boys decide to sit on separate seats so they can end up paired with girls.&nbsp; Marcus on the center sofa, Bo on the far lounger, David on the closest. They've lowered the lights, so it is warm but still well enough lit to see expressions etc.&nbsp; <br><br><br>So if there is anything you want to change in that shout. There are a couple of things to decide, have the boys got to talk about the way they plan to be with the girls while they were unpacking and together outside at any point – and if so what was the outcome?&nbsp; Did the girls also complete their conversation about the idea that Nicci put forward about going with all the guys on this their first experience or was it left in the air?&nbsp; Also the guys need to decide on the film they chose.<br><br>I would like to do Nicci's diary room post definitely, and if any of the guys have time their brief encounters that afternoon too – either on post in fuzzy time or on IM to suit you – I understand if you don't have time – let me know.&nbsp; Similarly if anyone else wants to do the same just post in the same place etc.&nbsp; speak up if you feel the same, or hate the idea!&nbsp; If you don't want or do not have time to play those encounters it might be a good idea to have a little brief outline of the feeling of the converstaion, what was covered and if it changed or created any particular feelings <br><br>ie: <br><br>talked about films, music and fave childhood film.&nbsp; Sat very close,&nbsp; and it felt very tender and easy, a little flirting and a kiss on the cheek briefly as the girl was going to go. Left feeling more comfortable and sexually slightly excited at the prospect of getting intimate<br><br>or<br><br>Started amicable but rather stilted, brief argument about about something, which quickly died and actually seemed to break the tension and flare up some sexual interest.&nbsp; Climb down, Kissed heatedly, left with mixed feelings and spiked their desire hugely.<br><br>that sort of thing *smile* which can go here, giving the background for the group encounter.&nbsp; Please do say if there is anything else you would like ccovered - either topic-wise or physcially.<br><br>

				Well it looks as if we need to throw a leaving party, as TS's muse is being stubbon and is holed up who knows where, and Mongoose is snowed-under.&nbsp; Looks like a wrap guys.<br><br>I've really enjoyed writing this story, so thank you so much to all of you. Lots of hugs and kisses galore. I'm sorry Marikir that it never materialised, that must have been frustrating for the newcommer as it were.<br><br>I think later in the year I may try it again, as it was never 'advertised' as such, so if anyone wants to do the same let me know.<br><br><br>Bon chance and merci beaucoup<br><br>D D x x x <br>

				Well, that's unfortunate, but I can understand the need to put it on hold/stop.<br><br>I'd be willing to try it again in the future if there's another attempt to do the story.&nbsp; So feel free to keep me in mind.<br><br><br>Thanks again.<br><br>(PS - If this pause ends for any reason, let me know.&nbsp; I'd be more than willing to jump back into it.)

				It was a nice run, and unfortunate that it ended.&nbsp; DD, you were delightful as a GM. Thank you for putting this together.&nbsp; The concept is really special.&nbsp; if you try it again, I'd love participating again.&nbsp; &nbsp;And I'm with Marikir on this - if this RP gets resurrected, I'm in, too.

				My sincere apologies for my absence everyone.&nbsp; I feel bad that I'm part of the reason why this is coming to a halt.&nbsp; Work has just been a nightmare for me the last month and my posts have all but dried up.&nbsp; I'm hoping things ease up by the end of next week as we will have reached a major milestone in our planning for the July move to the new buildings.&nbsp; If this comes back, I'd love to continue to play Marcus.
