Before I post, I need to know the time period, or a rough estimate. I planned on one of the main conflicts of the two siblings (21 for Jordan, 18 for Charlie) being how Jordan desperately wants to get into a really good college, while Charlie, who did not care AS much, was having much more success than he was.
If I can't do this though, s'all good.

New User HandleI was under the impression that it was a Grimm-era fairy tale setting. Of course, that's not to say there aren't such things as modern fairy tales...
Still. Hey, Schol, you should have made Oscar come with you to the market to carry all your bags... It's a good way to get all of the characters to meet.
Oh, and in case I didn't do so well at setting the scene- Oscar's basically working on one of the house's fences to make it sturdier and repaired, but now he's patting around randomly looking for his bag of nails.
Someone should totally step on it at the end of the game.

If not, there are other things I can do. I can even make it some distant university in italy or something, rennaissance style. Or I can think of something else.
New User HandleWhere are we exactly? Europe? A world of our own?
^^ Was waiting for you to post bfore I actually said anything to you.
Oh fairy tale Europe. Somewhere around where modern day Germany or France would show up on a map. But nobody is quite sure where Illicine is. There are universities around but none in Illicine itself.
@Alk: Yeah, assumed that was the case. So my characters still work.. Awesomeness.
New User HandleI was tempted to just have Oscar wander off but... Oh, screw it, I think I'll do that anyways.
Hmm... Wander off to go 'buy' sweets (and possibly give one to Penelope or Skye :P)... Or wait for permission from a somewhat spoiled teenage irl?
Never wrote Oscar to be an idiot...
Who said anything about "or"? 83 /Waiting for the Betty and Veronica plot to start, maybe with Charlie as an odd Cheryl Bloom, or Foil!Jordan for that matter...
Hey! Read my fanfic: HereWith Oscar as an Oblivious to Love Archie?
He's going to be quite oblivious... Whether it's selective or [[ Obfuscating Stupidity obfuscating]] remains to be seen...
Also, I kinda feel bad for leaving behind Skye like that, since it makes Oscar seem like kind've a jerk AND makes it look like I dislike Skye's character... Not my intention. Hopefully this will resolve bloodlessly...
But yeah, I don't mean that Skye is a bad master from that, but she is a somewhat... Time consuming one when clothing is involved. At least, such is the impression I am getting.

Keyword "hopefully", but then again Skye isn't Yandere. 'Cause a Yandere who was also Tsundere can't exist, 'cause if she did the world would be dead already.
Gah. I feel like my beigeness pales in comparison to everyone elses style. Any writing tips?
New User HandleYours isn't that bad. The dialogue sounds fine, you just might want to describe the scene a little bit, and work the description into the post. It's a little different from writing a book, since the viewpoint changes every post, but a lot of the principles are the same...
Yeah. I have always skimped on details. Even when trying to write a book. I focus more on monologues and actionness.
Need to work on that.
New User HandleOh good, Schol's here... It was kinda awkward with no one posting. '>_<
Yes. I still exist.
And "somewhat" nothing, she's rich and she knows it.
Wait, wha's wrong with Schol being here?
New User HandleNever said anything about a problem with him being here...
Hm? Oh. Misread your post then.
Also, watch as I attempt to write MORE beige prose! Yay!
Did edit it though, so I'm workin' on it.

New User HandleNot a problem.
I can't think of how to respond, though... I want to make Oscar do something shippery, but I can't think of anything he could do accidently...
Just post what you can think of.
All of you, feel free to yell at me if it seems like I'm not responding fast enough or unintentionally being a dick.
He steps on a nail and falls onto her.

GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Ok.
Uhm, anyone still here?
>_<
I exist.
If I'm sure of something it's that I'm not sure of anything.I posted. Where's my butler? >:(
Thread is up.
