But evidently he’d inadvertently stumbled upon a common flirting technique. He wasn’t sure what about breakfast was exactly flirtatious, and he did not want to ask Atticus for fear of seeming like an idiot. Perhaps he would ask Jace later. Surely Jace was well-versed in flirting; Remy was confident that he would be able to explain the seductive qualities of breakfast foods to him.

He started up the car and started speeding out of the parking lot he took a moment to look over at her. "Fasten that seat belt love. Car accidents generally occur in the middle of a getaway."

“It’s very nice to meet you, Idina. The bird man also told me that you enjoyed things with Rum. So I brought this lovely bottle of rum over here with the thoughts that perhaps we could share the contents. Pirate accent optional.” Crosby said, giving a little shrug. It might be amusing if both of them broke out the pirate accents to freak out the other patrons but that might not be a first meeting activity.

Alex glanced up when his cousin leaned forward becoming surprised at his statement. “Really now? Damn, that just means I have ta see your fuckin’ face more than ever. But all kiddin’ aside, welcome ta New Orleans kiddo.”

Amber didn’t flinch as Frazier moved closer to her and actually tilted her nose into the air just a bit to show how completely un-ruffled she was. So this gorgeous man was not four inches away from her and holding an illicit substance out to her, if anyone came out and saw them, they could suck it. Whatever it was people were supposed to suck when Amber didn’t care.

But now he was moving forward, angry and dark. Things so starkly different than the cassock he donned. She smiled brightly to see him so dark. So volatile and driven by desire, abandoning logic and moral. And when he spoke, she had won.

"It smells like bacon and magic," he yawned, resolving to at least start dragging himself out of bed. He wasn’t the best at mornings, and it was still pretty early, for him at least. Maybe he could sleep for another five minutes. Or ten. But definitely no more than fifteen. He face-planted into his pillow. "Ronnie, make the bacon come to us. I don’t wanna get out of bed."

ATOAD Roadmap

If you've found yourself here I'm sorry and also welcome. This is kind of how we do.

ATOAD is an RP community. I stress the difference because we're a small band of people who like to write together and not so much the serious rules type of other RPs that exist out there in the wild. We just sort of frolic about in imaginary lands and enjoy ourselves.

General Notes and Warnings

This RP is "adult" and "mature" themed. Though I doubt we count as either. There is drug use, drinkin', violence, murder, meshing of naughty bits and foul mouthed bitches. That's only the writers, loljk (mostly). There are dark characters and dark themes. We support and are writing relationships of all kinds. Hetero, Gay, Incest, Polygamous relationships and love affairs with booze and or cars. Essentially don't be a whiny butt hole and be open minded.

If any of the players threaten you with violence assume that it means we love you for example;

A reaction like this generally means you did something real good.

Universe Stuff

We have several worlds that we play around in. The one that started it all is World's End.

Exposition

You can actually write in any time period with World's End. We simply call those threads backtracks or flashbacks.

There are several races and monsters unique to this world.

Ascension is the second. It's a continuation of World's End far into the future where there's space travel and some shit.

Exposition

Some characters in World's End carry over to this setting if they old bitches.

The other setting we write in are not set in the same world as the two above.

You will find characters repeated in some of these verses. Just re imagined  We tend to refer to them like Alternate Universe or AUs.

The third is Bourbon Street. A modern day RP set in New Orleans.

The fourth is Devil's Trap. A Supernatural RP based on the show.

The fifth is Iratze. An RP based on The Mortal Instruments series of books by Cassandra Clare.

The Sixth is Crack. This is basically an AU we've wanted to write from one of the Universes we write in. Essentially Crack refers to anything and everything that is not canon in the verse the characters come from.

We have various races, monsters and places explained in the wikia that are canon in some play. You can add or make new ones as you like. Which is encouraged with great bravado. There may be dancing. Just try and be familiar with what exists already before you go make something similar. Tis all we ask.

General Playage

For making a character the general process is this.

Come up with an idea.

Most of us cast these characters as actors, models, singers or just someone specific. This is a first come first serve kinda thing. Don't overlap your casting with someone else's without talking to them but don't be scared to ask. 

This is the Casting Master List. It has the names of characters and their casting and generally a link to their masterpost if the writer uses them. Add your people to that list even if you don't cast them. It's how we know who exists. If you need help mastering wikia I will pop out a tutorial but this is not that tutorial.

You can then make a masterpost if you wish or simply announce to the world of ATOAD that you are making or have made this character.

Some of us follow up with a profile or Standalone to better explain what the character is and how they live their life and do their bidness. We just as often yell at each other on Skype about what who we made.

Then plot away baby.

Brief Glossary

Tags: Sometimes we refer to writing as tagging or a single post as a tag. The words are interchangeable.

Tumblr Play

The first thing you want to do is install missing E. It is the best thing that ever happened to tumblr and to you.

Once you make an account and set it up it's an easy path to start a thread with someone.

From your dashboard you click this button.

It'll take you to a screen with an empty text post. The general layout that most of us use for posts is like this this.

We tag the Character's Names, the Thread Title, the Verse it goes into and the other writer or you can just keep it simple and tag the thread name.

When someone reblogs your post you get a notification and if you follow them (which you should be following other ATOAD blogs) you will see it on your dashboard. When you want to reply to it you do this.

It's what us kids call the reblog button. It takes you to a screen similar to the text post it looks something like this.

To keep our dashes nice, simple and clean we follow the following routine. When you go to write your reply to the other writer get rid of the first block quote that contains your previous post. It's already on your blog anyway.

So copy from the top of the first block quote to the bottom. Like so

Then hit delete or the backspace button. Whatever tickles your pickle. Then you start typing under the post you're replying to like so

When you get your post written out you can simply click the reblog post button and it will post it up for the other writer to see.

Now say if you only get some of the way through a response. Then you can do this.

then scroll to the bottom and hit the save draft button. It will save the post as you have left it. When you want to go back to edit it you do that like this.

If your writing blog is the primary blog on your account you just go to the dashboard and at the top of your sidebar it should look like this

When you click that it takes you to all the drafts you have saved. Scroll through to find the post you were working on and then click this

It will send you to a screen similar to the reblogging one above I was showing you. Then write out your post. Switch to publish in the drop down if you want to send it out to the world or draft it again if you're not ready. Then lather rinse repeat for all your posts.

UMMMMMMMMMMMMM

[andthisonesaduck]

Oh look I finally did it.

[andthisonesaduck]

I have it set up so that when you click show contents at the top you can go directly to a Writer's Characters and individual sections, like Bourbon Street and World's End. Each table can be edited individually because of this as well. I'm sure there are mistakes in there. Links going to the wrong spot just because of how much content I rolled into this thing.

So, check it out. Learn it live love it.

[andthisonesaduck]

It feels like it was just yesterday.

[andthisonesaduck]

I am also adding list of characters to the different races on the Wiki. Feel free to edit those to your heart's delight because I'm sure I've missed people on there.

On Chaos Demons

So I think I’m the only one with a chaos demon. IDK could be wrong.

BUT

What I think of for these little bastards is this:

Chaos demons have got glowy green eyes. They are both actors and reactors. So that means they both react to chaos and cause it and in a way it becomes an endless loop. So chaos is categorized in my mind as anything that can include the seven sins as well as just plain ol’ chaos. A chaos demon creates the chaos in the way that things seem to get a little more crazy around them. Usually it brings out just plain chaos in people in that they just get out of control and more often they act upon one of the seven deadly sins. The chaos demon legitimately survives on these sorts of things. They get high off it in a way in that they get very happy and energized.

So in Drake’s case, because he is half, things are dimmed for him as far as power goes. He can create chaos and chaos does still follow him. It’s just not as widespread as it would be if he were full demon. He also gets really upbeat around chaotic situations (this is something that is not dimmed for him even though he is half). This is why when people get angry at Drake or he gets angry he is still smiling and seemingly happy about the situation. He enjoys conflict and thrives on what anger would be to human which just turns into happiness for him. His eyes are still green, just slightly less so.
