What do you do when

the world ends

without you?

It is white. White walls press in, claustrophobic; a white ceiling looms overhead; clean white tiles lurk out of sight. A clock ticks, the glassy face flickering as if uncertain of itself. The room is still except for that monotonous clockwork heartbeat, silent between each mechanic breath as if waiting for it to stop.

You are sat in the middle of it, on a grey plastic chair whose legs have been peeled of their plastic covering long ago and now stand bare and rusting before the world's scrutiny.

I don't know if you remember me, but I remember you.

You were younger, then, much younger. In the bell jar you stood, delicate childish hands pressed against the glass in awe of the new world around you. You had never been so high; I could tell because your legs were shaking slightly and your breath was a quick fog against the glass. When they sentenced you to death for your crime, they didn't realise you hadn't even lived.

I'm open to almost anything. Homosexual, bisexual, heterosexual - if the romance is convincing, I'll partake in it. Please note that I'm not by nature romantic, and this roleplay is not intended to be the 'enduring love' kind. Multiple characters are more than likely to crop up, and, if this generates enough interest, I'll consider opening it up into a group RP. Picture wise, again, I'm open. Abstract art, photography, illustrated - if it shows your character the way you want, who am I to judge? I draw the line at the typical scene/emo/facebook photos and pictures of characters from mangas/animes. They may be easy to come across, but we're not writing fan-fiction. Concerning characters, do whatever you like. Have magics from far away lands, own weapons with powers beyond our ken. If I think I'll need to remind you about realism, however, I will not ask you to join the roleplay.

As for the beginning, feel free to have your character react however you want - perhaps they think mine is mad and go their own way, or call some form of security. Whatever happens, I'll find some way to recruit you and there is no rush into the main plot line. It'd be great if we could talk this before we begin.

I look forward to reading any responses I get.
