Finally the time has come to start a new life! School is now behind you, college is now behind you, and now you take a step towards your future. Fine arts. That's what your degree was in and you hope it'll pay off. And even if it doesn't, it keeps you at ease, the thought of living a happy life. And so now you head to the Big Apple, the city of hopes. The one, the only New York City. Many others with similar education to you live around next to the Central Park, and many seem to be new grads like you! Life is starting on the right foot after all!
Basic idea:
You play as a newly graduated young adult that moved into New York City to start a new life. Your character is an expert at fine arts such as music, theatre, or art. I'd rather them only have a couple things they're experts at, so keep that in mind. Your character lives next to Central Park, but I'll leave it up to you how you want their living quarters to be.
Rules: (I don't think you'll need them, but. .) ~ Follow all rules. ~ Please keep out of character arguing away. Please? ~ Be respectful outside character, and try to remain respectful in character. (Though, I get it if your character's insensitive.) ~ Please don't make an over-dramatic character. . ~ I'll add more as I see fit, but I don't think I will. You all know how to role-play real life events.

Iris Heathing // DJ Heathing Iris woke up from her light slumber to the sound of her headsets falling off. "Please, just give more minutes," she mumbled as she turned over to her side. The sudden sliding of something else woke her up and she realized her phone was vibrating. "Hmm?" She rubbed her eyes and saw a call from her aunt. "Good morning, Aunt Nancy!" She said cheerily, ecstatic that her aunt has called her. "Huh? Yeah, I just woke up." She heard chatter from the other end and grinned from ear to ear. "Thank you, Nancy!" She stretched, her hand still on the phone. "It's only 10, Auntie, it's too early for me even to think about being awake," she laughed as she got out of bed. The two continued their conversation and she made herself breakfast and got dressed while doing so. She recalled when she first met her aunt quite fondly as she walked out of her cluttered apartment. It was night, as it was easier to slip away in the sheets of the dark. She'd packed a couple things and she was traveling through trains, as she was certain her parents wouldn't think to look there. Once she'd reached a small town, a woman called out her mother's name and she met Nancy. Nancy and her kicked off almost instantly and she helped Nancy with her house. Sighing with content, she threw her hair up in a clip and looked at the sky. "Oh my, the morning sky?" She laughed at herself. "Never though I'd be alive to see this day~" She walked merrily down the street. [/font] Vern RyneLater~[/font] [/center]

Kita Godensha Kita sighed as his alarm went off signifying another sleepless night. He ran his hands through his hair and put the painting he was working in a folder. He stood up and went into the kitchen to make himself a cup off coffee. He scanned the small kitchen and grabbed an apple of counter hopeing to wake himself up a bit, he then picked up his phone and saw he had another missed call from Cody. Quickly he unlocked his phone and called her back. "Hey Cody sorry for missing your call earlier I was working on another project" He left the voicemail and grabbed his bag and his thermos filled with coffee and left the small apartment room and out the building. He wanted to go to the store quick before a lot of people got there, he really does not like crowded places. He looked around and realizes he took a wrong turn somewhere and curses at himself. Turning around he heads back the way he came a confused expression on his face "Where did I make a wrong turn... I'm lost great way to go Kita"

Iris Heathings // DJ Heathings While lost in her own little world, Iris crashed into someone. "Ah!" She screamed as she landed on the ground. "Oh my god, I am so sorry!" She said, hurrying herself off the ground and picking up a binder she'd dropped. She ignored the weird stares she'd gotten and she looked at the person before her. "Ah forget!" She took their hand and rushed into a corner store. "Don't call the police," she said, fear in her eyes. "I'm afraid I might be arrest on various accounts." She shivered at just the thought. She reached for her neck, attempting to stroke the headphones that weren't there as a nervous habit and cursed quietly. "I forgot my headphones," she scowled. "If Tyche doesn't make this day the worst for me," she mumbled some more incoherent words. Not long after, she realized there was still someone in front of her. "Ah! I am so sorry." She bit her lip. "See, the thing is I tend to rub my headphones as a nervous, but when they're not there I tend to babble like I am now!" She whimpered. "I just wanted to make it up to!" She wailed. "Why does everything go so horribly wrong when I try to do something?" She put her face in her hands and sighed. "I am Iris Heathings. Who would you be?" She tried once more, much more calm.

Kita Godensha Kita felt the air momentarily get knocked out of him and he stumbled a few steps back. "I-it's fine" Still a little shocked he stuttered. He looked around and saw the girl standing up and he assumed she would be fine and as he was about to leave when the girl grabbed his hand and pulling him around the corner and she started rambling and he found it amusing. A small smirk started pulling at the edges of his mouth. He watched as she continued talking and said something about headphones and talked about them for a little while and he found himself holding back a small laugh. As much as he tried to hold it back a quiet laugh escaped his lips, He smiled at her "I'm Kita Godensha, nice to meet you Iris" He smiled again and offered to shake her hand

Iris Heathing // DJ Heathing Iris let out a breath she didn't know she was holding. "Nice to meet you, Kita!" She blinked warmly and her shoulders relaxed. "Where are you headed? If you don't mind, may I join?" She looked at him/them. "There's so many people here," she shivered. "At night I can roam the city like a crook, but in the day, I can't walk four feet without being trampled." She rubbed her arms, looking away as if an omen's name had been taken. "It's not pretty here," she said rather distantly." She fell silent in the next couple of minutes before shaking her head. "Anyway, where did you say you were headed?" She looked up a bit hopeful. "And do you mind if I tag along? I swear you won't even know I'm here!"

Kita Godensha He smiled at Iris "Oh I'm just headed to the store quick to pick something up" He waited to contain as he kept talking and rambling. He gave her a friendly smile "Yeah you can join me but just a warning, I'm not the greatest person when it comes to small talk" He felt his phone vibrate and quickly excused himself while he got out his phone from his bag and saw he had a new message from Cody 'Hey idiot where are you we were supposed to go to the movies today... Or did you forget again? Oh wait you were going to get some art supplies weren't you *sigh* text me once your done I really want to go see a movie with you again!' He quickly sent a reply. She knew him too well he did totally forget he looked back at Iris "Alright I'm ready to go you coming?" He said with a smile on his face.

Iris Heathing // DJ Heath She blinked warmly. "Ooh, I'd love to help you pick~" She smiled. "Well, I just don't want to roam by myself. If you want, we can talk about philosophical stuff. That's never small talk," she grinned. When he excused himself, she picked up her own phone and saw a message from her friend in college. Her heart warmed and she placed a hand over it. "Oh be still my heart," she breathed. When Kita spoke, she jumped and quickly stuffed her phone in her pockets. "As ready as I'll ever be~" She said cheerily.

Kita Godensha He smiled and then looked a round trying to figure out what street they were on. After a minute or two he realized where they were and looked back at Iris "Alright let's go" He started to walk not really seeing if she was following but he really hoped she was. He's never really had friends besides Cody, she was the o ly one out of his group of friends that accepted him. He sighed and ran a hadn't through his hair looking at the ground and almost running into a few people every now and then. He looked up and saw the shop was just a few more blocks away

Iris Heathing // DJ Heath Iris smiled a bit at him as he started watching and followed not long after. Her phone vibrated in her pocket and she pulled it out, one eye on Kita's back. When she saw who the text was from, her heart sank. hey heath. Iris pursed her lips, just about to put the phone back in her pocket when it vibrated once more. think u can mak it tmr Iris just rolled her eyes and she turned her device off. "So, Kita, what terrifies you the most?" She decided the ice breaker should be something completely absurd. And that she ensured it was.

Andromya "Mya" Mya sat on a park bench, her right foot positioned underneath her left knee and her left foot touching the ground. She had a notebook in her lap, words scratched all over it. She held her pencil up, eraser tapping her lower lip. Her pale blue gaze unfocused yet scanning the park's greenery before her. It was a peaceful morning, a perfect morning for song writing. Though at the moment, nothing seemed to want to come out.

(Sorry about the late response) Kita Godensha Kita looked around seeing if it was safe to cross the street and before he started walking he in surprise tot Iris's question he stopped in his tracks and turned around to look at her confusion written all over his face. He looked at her for a few more seconds and then shook his head and turned around and continued walking "I don't know," He gave off a small shrug "Probably loosing the people I care about, though that seems a little cliche.... What about you?"

Vern Ryne Interactions: Andromya "Mya"; Location: Park The day had been slow since he left his apartment. Central Park was a decent change, but it was something he could see from his window, if he craned his neck enough. He rubbed the nape of his neck, his back sore from the night before. Doing stunts wasn't his sharpest feature, as he was rather stiff. Unfortunately, though, he couldn't change out into a stuntman, because, well, it was a live show. Vern had had a tough time to find a decent job, and he wasn't going to give up playing supporting lead because of a backache. "Oh one of these days I'll make it big time into Broadway," he muttered, thinking about taking up writing stories for a change instead of acting. A woman sitting on the bench caught his eye. There was an aura of focus around her, and it made him curious what she was so focused on. Taking a seat next to her, he casually glanced over at her works, noting that she had music sheets in her hand rather than blocked sheets of paper. Rolling his eyes, he looked away, not quite into the whole music thing.
Iris Heathing Interactions: Kita; Location: Somewhere on the Streets She nodded and smiled when Kita warned her it might have been cliche. "Naw, you're chill. I've heard much more sappy things than that. My fear is probably a really common one as well." She rubbed the base of her palm, almost as if massaging it. "I'm terrified of losing myself in a sea of identities." She followed him closely, not wanting a repeat of a scenario that played in the back of her mind. "What's your favorite word in English?" She asked, attempting to get to know Kita better.

Andromya "Mya" Her concentration was broken when she felt someone peering at her song book. She glanced up at him, his pale eyes a great contrast to the dark hair. She watched as he rolled his eyes before looking away. "What? You don't like music?" She asked, a dark eyebrow raised over dark green eyes. She looked back at the sheet music. It was mostly just a melody that she'd had stuck in her head the night before. She had hoped that some words would have come to her by now.
