Posts up, it won't all come out yet, but I've been gradually working on Darien's backstory, which means research. 'Cosa Nostra' is probably my single favorite Italian phrase...it simply means 'our thing'.

it is a very quaint and nice phrase! learning about other cultures is so interesting, especially when youre creating your own character based off that culture! you learn so much!
"and like all lovers and sad people, i am a poet."
Indeed it is, post is finally up. That took way to long owing to constant distractions and more research. I'm quite proud of the set-piece though, this is the reason I decided not to set the RP in any city in particular.
It's more of a hybrid New York/Chicago with a little LA and Vegas thrown in for good measure, since this seems to be going in more and more of a 'noire' direction as we go along. If I'm gonna do the Mafia thing I may as well go all-in.
By the way, it should be noted that Delphine's going to face some subtle white-ish on white racism from basically here on out, after all, she's Irish. Bit of bad blood there.

might as well!
and eh, how realistic would a roleplay be without a little bit of the harsh reality here and there?

Reply is up, I'm SO SO sorry that we haven't gotten more done. I didn't leave you a whole lot of time before the site's downtime, but I get into my head when I'm writing, picking exact words, exact phrases. I agonized over that last line way longer than I probably needed to, weather or not I wanted Darien to drop the 'hint' as it were.
I like it though and there'll be more hints to come, puts something out there for Delphine to try to wheedle out of him, providing plenty of opportunity for drama, between him not communicating properly and her agonizing over it.

Post is up, a bit short because I'm just using my phone.
Edit:Edited for length and detail to fit my entirely self-imposed 'standards', had a good time hanging out with just my sister. Swiped her kindle, so I have a decent-ish writing platform if you feel like gracing me with your words tonight.

I feel that, take whatever time you need. We're doing my sisters birthday-dinner-thing now, and then I'll be free. Headed back home tomorrow, Nashville's been fun but driving here is a nightmare and it's getting a bit crowded. Plus, I got work to get back to.
