City Of Hills is an aim and thread friendly PB/city based community set in San Francisco, California.

Writers of this community are promised to have control over their story lines. As long as things are kept realistic, the mod(s) will not worry about how much of whatever is going around; especially considering this is a city wide based game. If things get out of hand, the game will address the issue(s) as a whole then. Members of this community have a voice with us and their opinions and suggestions are always validated and taken into high consideration. We also will provide a lot of interactive opportunities for characters. All play by (PB) types welcome.

"Interaction vs Omniscience"

Neutral Ground is a role-playing safe haven for those of us who remembered that like ourselves, no one will know our characters from just looking at us. There are no bios required. There aren't even first posts required. You play your character as you see fit, you use your characters blog as you see fit. You play any storyline you want to play or you use your journal and this game as a basis for inspiration for your fan fictions. It doesn't matter. Here at NeutralGround, we value interaction as opposed to omniscience meaning, we want your characters to get to know one another as you get to know them...we don't require you to know everything. So give it a shot! And best of all, it's the easiest application process ever.

Genres allowed: Fandom, AU, PB, Fantasy, Original.

The holiday_wishes Comm is officially open! Time to break out the wishes, gifts, holiday spirit, good cheer, and all that other sappy rot ;)

At Holiday Wishes everyone is invited to post a list of up to TEN things they really really want. After you post your wishes, check out other people's, and if it is in your heart and ability to do so, make someone's wish come true! Other holiday related posts are welcomed as well (such as DIY gift ideas, charity links, or sharing a special activity or recipe that your family has for the winter holidays)

Be sure to check out the guidelines and faqs!

NOTE: While Holiday wishes began on Livejournal and continues strong there, a number of people requested a mirrored community here on Insane Journal. If you interact both on Livejournal and Insanejournal, you may post your wishlist (with the same wishes!) to the Holiday Wishes communities on both journaling communities.

( Will you survive? )

So sometime between my first Escapade con and now, I figured out that dressing up can be really fun. This is something that I never understood much growing up, and being a girly girl just does not come naturally to me, and appearance-frivolity always strikes me as an inefficient way of living a life, and... well, frankly, feeling like I was looking attractive and/or dressing attractively (for many many values of those terms) usually got me unwanted attention that I was rather incapable of dealing with... or made no difference in how I was avoided completely, because brains in women must have been such an overriding turnoff as to overwhelm anything else I did or looked like (insert snarky glare at childhood hometown here).

Put it this way: Nowadays I live in Burbank, a very fashion-conscious area of Los Angeles (town of plastic people!) and I can make my beautician-stylist-colorist-person actually recoil in horror by telling her that I routinely use my car's vents to dry my hair on my commute to work. I am regularly baffled by skin care products, and I don't wear makeup most days at all.

And lately, it is not in my nature to buy dresses or skirts for myself unless they are part of a Renfaire or fannish costume. This is a step closer to girly girl than when I could have said that it was not in my nature to buy dresses or skirts at all.

That said? I suspect that I'm kind of turning into a clotheshorse, and I can probably safely blame fandom. :-)

( cut for happy babble )

When I feel like I look like a million bucks, I'm more outgoing, more confident, and people react differently to me. It's startling and odd and wonderful mostly.

NEW SHOES YAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

venefici - A Harry Potter DH-epilogue compliant RPG

Well, I'm here for the duration. Everyone needs to get chatty now. :-)

Re-wrote parts of what was the 'epilogue' to Not The Last (link goes to the Teaspoon) in the light of S4 of DW. Thought I might just as well post it here, in case anyone's curious? No real spoilers for S4 btw. (There will be proper sequels - this is best described as a character study. Or: My Timelord, let me show you him.)

Title: 'Not The Last: Who I Am.'
Setting: AU-post 'Sound of Drums'. This part is set 200-300 years later.
Spoilers: S3.
Rating: PG-13.
Characters: OC, the Doctor, the Master, Jack.
Wordcount: This part 2050.

( Not The Last: Who I Am. )

This is one of the alltime great icons! Not *quite* applicable today, but great nonetheless.

For once I'm not actually worried about losing anything, since I backed up my LJ last month (with LJ book). I'd been meaning to do it for ages, of course, but after copperbadge got hacked I decided that maybe now was the time. (It even saves comments!)

Am v. busy, but the sun is SHINING today, which makes everything better. :)

(PS. I adore this moodtheme!)

Just thought I'd put up a post. No idea what to say however, but if you need to chat, do.

I really ought to use this journal more - I love all my icons! (How shallow is that? Heh.)

Do you miss the old days of role-playing, when people worked for story-lines and didn't expect things handed to them on a silver platter?

Do you miss the days when games were about posting threads and logs, not LULZ AIM chats and macros? Or about content and plot, not about popular faces, challenging each other's holds, and who has the best icons?

Do you struggle to find places to advertise when communities like ~rps and ~pbads push your ads off the page within hours?

Do you wish you could find games like that still and don't know where to look for them?

Welcome to Old School RP. This is the ad community you've been missing.
