“How can you drink that stuff?” (From Clint at EliteRejects ^^ Hiya!)
“What, water?” Neri replied with a quizzical smile. “Humans are basically plants with complex emotions, besides, I prefer water to coffee” she said with a shrug. Coffee was alright, though she didn’t understand why people drank so much of it, she already stayed up all night and couldn’t quite recommend it.

❛ Go to college ❜ ― they said. ❛ It will be fun ❜ ― they said. Raquelle had never heard such bullshit in her life. College was stressful on top of having a job too it made her want to pull her hair out. Now on top of all the costs of college itself, she needed to go buy yet another book. She had heard about this bookstore not too far from the university. Upon entering, a small bell rang announcing her presence at the door. Raquelle stared up at it’s small silver shape hovering over the doorframe on a string. Tongue to her cheek she stepped further in. ❝ Hello? Is anyone here? ❞

"That sounds fascinating, I'm sure I saw it on one of these shelves. If you follow me?" Nerissa started leading the way, towards the large windows to the other side of the shop. "Sounds like a difficult class to be in but I can guarantee a cheaper price. What they charge for textbooks now is bloody criminal!" Nerissa knew all too well how much they cost and refused to sell college books for full price. A bad profit decision but one that made her feel better.
"This is all the psychology books I have, some may be a bit outdated..." to say the shelf was vast was understatement. In reality it was four full shelves dedicated to psychology, all organised by author. "If you do the bottom two, I'll check the top two? I'm Nerissa, by the way." Slightly nervous about asking for help, she flashed a little grin before pulling over a step stool.

Nerissa looked up from her book when the bell rang. Surprise was plain on her face, almost no one came in this time of year, sure maybe the regulars popped in but rarely anyone else. Most people were out doing... well... anything other than burying themselves in a bookshop. 'At least i have the online orders. Something is better than nothing, like papa says.'
Straightening up in her counter stool, Neri painted a smile on her face, she was always happy to have a new customer. "Hello there, welcome to The Book Retreat, Do you need any help?"
📖Does anyone else have to try real hard not to be completely mean to their characters?
I mean, I love torturing poor Nerissa, but sometimes it would be nice to do a calm, happy sort of thing for her. 😅
I may be self projecting.📖
With the hero chained up, the villain unveils their masterpiece: a weapon that tracks everyone who loves the hero before obliterating them. The map powers on. “Wait. There’s just one dot.” The Villain says. “…Someone loves me?” The hero replies with hope.

Open RP: Nick Fury
“That is the best I can do. I have those who owe me but they will only go so far. So…you taking this deal or am I arresting you on the spot?” Nick simply states, “You won’t make it too far out of here if you try to run.”
Oh god. Oh god. Oh godohgodohgod. Nerissa hadn’t meant for it to get this bad. She really didn't. But she had to summon things. It wasn’t a choice for her. If she didn’t summon willingly then her powers would do it for themselves, that's how she'd ended up in this situation, from summoning a bloody manticore by accident! Clearing her throat, Nerissa sat up straighter, trying to calm herself.
“I… I don’t have much of a choice do I? It’s not like they’ll let me summon anything in prison… then things would be even worse” She couldn’t stop shaking. She knew her powers would get her in hot water. They always did. I Just want to run my shop.
Open starter
It hadn’t been difficult to find the right book. After all, when you run a book shop you tend to know your stock. But sometimes… sometimes people just had a feeling. A tingling in their fingers or a pressure in the gut telling them to go back, to take the book, to open it and absorb the world inside of it.
For most people that wasn’t quite so literal.
Most people read a book, enjoyed it, and put it back down. For Nerissa it was different. She always heard her books whispering to her. Whispered promises of what lay inside, if only she dared to read it aloud. Treasure, adventure, romance, danger. All manner of creature both real and mythological or completely made up.
It was always a tempting possibility that nagged at her brain. But she would never indulge it. Never give in to the whispers… well… almost never.
‘It couldn’t hurt’ she had thought. ‘It couldn’t hurt to try. Just a little test.’ So she’d grabbed a book that had whispered the loudest, a book of fairies and all creatures alike. After setting out a bowl of cream by the register she’d started to read aloud, not paying attention to the door. After all, hardly anyone visited her shop anymore.
It didn’t take long for the first fairy to appear, and it was quickly followed by a second, then a third. Until there were five fairies, no bigger than her middle finger, drinking daintily from the bowl.
Until the bell rung, singling a potential customer entering. Nerissa quickly shooed the fairies away, hoping the other hadn’t seen them. “Hi there, do you need any help?” She said, flashing a friendly smile.
Updates
📖 So I've updated Nerissa's about and background pages.
Just little changes so that I can keep her story straight as I try and get back into the swing of things.
As always, you don't have to read them, but i would appreciate it if you did. 😊 📖
My character is under a truth serum, ask them anything.
MY CHARACTER HAS TO ANSWER TRUTHFULLY, NO MATTER THE QUESTION.
