@targetedredhead-blog
A load of people? started following you
Huh...seems like a few of the folk who've been around here aren't exactly people, though. And...how is it possible for ANOTHER Sissel to be on that list when I spoke to him a while ago? This is weird...but hi to all of you!
If you need any investigations and info about this place, I'll be glad to tell you! Sorry I've been kinda quiet lately, though...kinda got a cold and had to recover in the House of Wisdom for a bit.
Lots of people started following you
go-for-the-broke:

(Detective Lynne was - to be quite frank about things - quite glad that nobody had seen her for that day when the prankster Dolos has purposely made her lose her hair-tie and her hair to fall down, and even more glad that she actually had found the thing again in the face of meeting so many new folk. A lot of them seemed new here, now that she curiously looked at things, but she could be wrong!)
Hey there! Great to meet all of you! I’m Detective Lynne!
A perky, young woman… Badou wasn’t complaining. It was a nice break from some of the assholes he met so far.
“Pleasure to meet ya Lynne. I’m Badou Nails.”
Badou, huh? That's an interesting name...are you new here, or have ya been here a while?
I've been investigating this place for a while and taking notes to find the truth and try and help new folk here, you see, so if you are new here, I could explain some stuff about the place if ya wanted.

An unknown person (ichi-no-sei) started following you
(Though Lynne had been heading to the House of Wisdom to try and hide this 'bad hair day' out - with her hair-tie being lost and her long hair: due to not being propped up - hindering seemingly everything she did, it seemed that fate had other ideas than letting her hide without being spotted, for the detective's blinded walk - and constant tripping - forward was intterupted as she heard footsteps near her. Turning to face the source of the noise, Lynne waved and said:)
Uhm...hello there. Would you mind coming closer so I can see you? My hair's in such a mess I can't even tell who you are...
thinkofitasjustice:
Why are there only girls here omg
well except for like two people but still.
(Lynne pushes her hair away from her face long enough to be observe the 'list', then saying as it blocks her view again:)
Oooh, you know miss Maya, too? She's really awesome, isn't she?
TIPS TO HELP ROLEPLAY @ ZODIAKOS.
zodiakos:
1. Don’t be shy! A lot of people on Tumblr are and can be intimidated by RPing style or even character. Loosen up and have fun; you’re not the only one out there who can be a bit embarrassed or socially awkward. Us mods even get that way at times.
2. Respond to as many open posts as possible. This is directed with the previous statement as some people don’t reblog because of intimidation. Those who do open posts obviously want responses. If they don’t get it, it is incredibly discouraging and can quite possibly kill off muses. Please, if you care about your fellow SL mates, help them feel good and respond even if it’s a small post!
3. If open RPs don’t work too well for you, it’d be in your best interest to message people you want to interact with. The point of Meme Monday is to find out who else wishes to do the same along with other reasons, and sometimes, messaging is the best way to go about things. It lets the other know you’re interested enough to contact them, and you can discuss specific RPs. Once again, don’t be shy!
4. Don’t drop threads! Everyone knows that there’s a point when there’s not much else that can be said in a RP, but they usually get dropped early on in the boring introduction phase. We try to come up with interesting scenarios from events or otherwise to prevent this, so make use of it. If you don’t get a response in time, send the person you’re RPing with a message containing the reply. Tumblr likes to eat messages often, so don’t feel bad sending multiples. Just remember that you have to format it like you would an application link to the mods.
5. Set challenges for yourself. Examples would be, “do 3 new RPs this week that are with completely new people” or “make use of a certain part of Arcadios”. If you can make it to the limits you make, not only will you please yourself, but others as well.
Once again, we would like to re-state this for emphasis. Open posts are made to meet new and old people alike and are going to be the biggest chunk of Zodiakos. It’s not possible to have every single one responded to, better yet have one person trying to respond to them all by themselves. Consider how you would feel if you did an open post that gets no responses when you see another on the dash.
You’d be surprised at how it could make someone’s day a bit better.
Curious about Arcadios?
zodiakos:
The mods have whipped up a detailed exploration of the three main parts of Arcadios. Of course, this will be ever changing to add new buildings or new locations. But for now, it’s a great start. We hope you can utilize these to start OPEN RPs and meet new people! We’ve added it to our sidebar under “The Locations”.

HEY. RED-HAIRED BROAD. YOUR HAIR LOOKS STUPID WHEN IT'S DOWN.
Well, considering you're HIDING your face, 'annon' creature, I don't think you have the right to go making fun of anyone, okay?
...Or you could continue making fun of people and have me go arrest you. Your call.

She’s usually moving around the island - probably keeping an eye on it - but she’s most commonly near the oasis!
((Out of character note: http://goddess-sophia.tumblr.com/ - Sophia’s Tumblr if you didn’t have it already. :>))
(( oh I know :’D thank you!))
…Okay.
Thank you, Detective.
You're welcome! As always, if you need help with anything, lemme know! A good detective never ignores someone in need!

targetedredhead:
Aw, really? Thanks!
(Lynne grins happily at that, before nodding to Clive’s query, saying:)
Yep! I got my detective’s notepad I’d lost back from her because I asked nicely. If you have a personal item that got lost back in your home or something that isn’t dangerous - you can ask her for it, and she’ll be very nice and agree to give it to you. Of course, if it’s a really big item, she might ask for you to do something in return…
Hmm…I see.
Detective? Where could I find Sophia?

Touche. Also sudden urge to app for Fiancee Sissel even if she’s not in the game oops. I see. I’ll keep an eye out for them.
Hmm, that’s an idea. So it is possible to communicate with Sophia?
Aw, really? Thanks!

Detective Lynne's Log: Part Three.
(The handwriting in this part of the log is very messy and almost inelligble.)
In my investigations today - when I was looking for two things - both my friends and why everyone is having such bad luck - I didn't find any of my friends, sadly. But...I have spotted the criminal that is causing all this bad luck with my own eyes! Apparently, Sophia's not the only 'mythical being' around here - there's another one who likes stirring up trouble and causing mischief, called Dolos. He's the source of all the bad luck today...I know, because mere moments after I spoke to him, my luck turned even WORSE...I lost my hair-tie, and now my hair's gonna haveta stay down the whole DAY - and I can't see much of anything without my long hair tied up.
I guess it could be worse though...I just hope nobody spots me like this.

targetedredhead:
Yeah, so far…only me and my buddy Yomiel are here. I was hoping I could maybe find the others in my investigations today.
…Hm. That’s a good point, Clive…which would explain why Dolos hasn’t come up and started trouble beforehand. Maybe Sophia shoos him away whenever she spots him and he hasn’t gotten the chance to sneak it until now - with all this weather maybe distracting Sophia? I dunno…
Don’t forget Missile.Really? Well, what do your friends look like?
Hmm, that’s true. Still, If Sophia is the goddess she makes herself to be, I’m certain this will all be resolved soon.
Missile's my pet, it would sound kinda weird to a stranger if you introduced your pet as your friend first go. Well, there's a few of them...right now, I'm looking for a lady that calls herself Sissel. She often wears her hair down and it hides her eyes...you can't miss her in a crowd. Then there's a black cat with a red bandanna who's...also called Sissel. It'd take too long to mention all my friends!
...Hey, maybe I can help her? I bet if I talked to her about this, maybe she could give me a way to assist the folks also suffering bad luck, right?
BAD luck (Open)
(Lynne was still muttering choice words under her breath to herself as she tried to get her bearings, at least - but with her hair in her face AND the fog, it was like 'Dolos' had decided to throw a permanent Troll face at her day today. On the bright side, she'd found out that there WAS another spirit of the island called Dolos and that he probably WAS the cause of all this sudden bad luck - but on the really bad side, she found it difficult to see anything at all - which was part of the reason why she kept her hair up.
The other reason was she really didn't like wearing her hair 'girlishly' down - it looked way better up, and no doubt lots of people would laugh or make fun of the situation - so she had only one option here. Try to make her way back to the House of Wisdom and hope like hell nobody else noticed her. Despite not wanting to be seen, she supposed matters could be worse...at least she hadn't lost her important detective's notepad or anything. However, in her rush to get back to the Hosue of Wisdom - she tripped and fell, a high-pitched squeal emitting from her as she did so - quickly meeting the ground. Good gods, she really hoped nobody had seen that...)
An unidentifiable bunch of people (without-limitation, sol-badguy and sharpeningknives ) started following you
(Lynne, in the midst of trying and failing to find her missing hairtie so she can get her hair out from her face - see, THIS is why she wears it up in that high ponytail all the time - blinks at hearing...footsteps near her? She can't really see who's there with her hair in her face, but waves and says:)
Uhm, hi there! Nice to meet you...whoever you are. I'm Lynne...I'm sorry, but can I ask you to come a bit closer? I can't see too good at ALL with my hair in this mess...
Detective~! I'm so glad to find you. I apologize for my lateness, but I am quite fashionable right now so it's all good. Oh, is that a new hair style? Love what ya done with it -- except I don't. See, you're just defying gravity with that hunk of red on your head. Let's bring it back down to earth. For the whole day, you'll have the huge problem of having hair in your face. You'll be like the Lindsay Lohan version of the Shaggy Dog! Bumping into things, tripping, it must be hard to see through all that red, huh? If you ever need to get that fixed up, I have a shaver ready for you!~
...OH YOU HAVE GOTTA BE KIDDING M-
(Aaand Lynne's hairtie suddenly goes missing from her hair and makes it fall back down to it's usual 'down' position, covering her eyes instantly due to that - a few muffled choice words audible despite Lynne's long hair being practically all in her face right now.)
