island unknown | advanced rp discussion
oof, we make this so sad. So Dad alone on island two it is! Do we have face claim ideas? I'm trying to help think of one for Xwft... but i'm also sort of bad at faceclaims.
Yup poor father stuck on an island with to criminals XDHehe sorry to be a bother. I'm thinking I can use the younger version of Thomas Brodie Sangster if i'm allowed to do that. Cause I think the like 7 yr old version of him would be a good Tommy. I don't yet have a thought for Alyssa tho.
Ooooo I could do Lindsey Morgan for Alyssa?? What people think
I think she's probably a little bit too old maybe? And if Max' boy is blonde blue eyes?
I thought maybe these girls:
Sophia Lillis
Angourie Rice
Josephine Langford
Kathryn Newton
Kristine Froseth
Also feel free to say no, but should Alyssa be a daughter from the Mom's previous marriage?
Because otherwise my dad character looks sooo bad for breaking up with his ex-wife and having another kid within like two years. I mean it's fine if not, he can just be a jack ass xD
Ok by vote of people I know Josephine Langford as wonAlso would I be allowed to use a FC of a younger actor. Like can I use picture of an actor that's 27 now but use the pics from then they were 7 as someone for Tommy?
Yeah that's fine, I do that all the time
My guy has brown hair, blue eyes, not blonde... I don't think. But they don't have to all look exactly the same, genes are weird sometimes. Also, I've been like slowly formulating ideas for my character. I think he's gonna not like Emmy because he feels like her mother led his father astray. He thinks his father can do no wrong though, nothing he's done is his fault. He loves his dad more than anything and is willing to look past any of his faults because he feels like he needs a father role model.
Also, just so we know like history and stuff.... why were they on the flight? Holiday or something?

i don't remember mikayla REMIND ME ?? but yes she sounds like a riot we must tear it up on this island bc that's what we do *shrugs*
Mod
OH YEAHHHHHHHHH that would be FUN!! i feel like len would be more prissy and fussy and so this girl coming in and messing with her would have her in teEARS hahaha!!! let's make it happen >:)"is that my MAC lipgloss? did you take that out of my bag?!"
Mod
like they could ig model friends that like always end up doing the same shoots and going to the same fashion shows and brands but lol if mikayla was younger than len there could always be tension bc maybe one is more popular than the other
OOOOOOHHHH that's even better!!! sorry i missed that haha but yes!! she could have a similar pouty look or swimsuit bod as len and so the media is kind of like "move over len, here comes mikayla!" or like maybe len really wanted to be on a cover for some mag and mikayla ends up snagging it instead bc len has been modeling longer and "people want something new" OOO that's gonna ruin her haha but yes even on the island people maybe compare them and its annoying af and can be alot of drama
Mod
@MaxYeah they don't have to look tooo similar especially cause genes sometimes skip and generation so if some of the grandparents had other hair colours it's entirely possible for them to have lighter ro darker hair kids. Same with eyes I think. Also I think we decided a holiday. Like one that would hopefully make Emmy feel more welcome and sort out Alyssa's problems and stuff.
Aw Jonah sounds like a bean <3 what will he think if Alyssa is a half sister too?
@Ella
I mean it would be a cool idea but it would almost make Alyssa a jerk cause she would be a brat to Emmy when she herself is a step sister technically. However I guess she could have really tried to make Emmy welcome but if Emmy was having none of it Alyssa would start to hate Emmy. Especially if if she saw to much of herself in Emmy and she hates herself. Like she hates that she's not fully blood related to his younger ones and feels she can't protect and help them as much as she might be able to if she was full sister. Cause people don't take her seriously at school and stuff as just a half sister. So once Emmy made it clear she wanted nothing to do with them. Maybe Alyssa could have been the subject to some really bad bulling in school and so is trying to protect her youngest brothers while trying to act strong for them. However all pent up anger is pushed onto Emmy? How's that sound?
HAHAHA mikayla stubs her toe on some rock and this love of her life drops everyting to help her and meanwhile len is actually bleeding xD i'm dead
Mod
rip len + her popularity :') it's war
Mod
like she's messing it up BAD and it's frustrating to len and when they're all crashed on the island everyone's focused on you know, not dying, and all len can think about is how she's being one-upped xD

Mod
@EmmaI have my Innocent sweet bean doctor however it seems you do not need a sweet bean doctor boy lol. He could tho be the one to pick up Eleanor and look after her.
However I do have my criminal girl who I have had a few thoughts for. She could pair with Miles cause two hot heads is always fun to mess around with Maybe, if he's that type, they could have been work partners if her little thievery thing she does and then ratted her out so she would be pissed at him. Or she would just be a good sparing partner or someone that would rile him up more but also calm him down in a weird way.
Or maybe she could pair with Scott as a sister or jerk step-sister instead of brother? If he wants a problematic step-sister/actual sister.
Orrrr Max has a criminal dude I was planning on pair her with and that would tick quite a few boxes for Eleanor. Cause that could be love triangle and he's one of those boys that I think would backstab her and Ryo would be a great rival. However that depends if Max wants to.
Any of those sound good?
Mod
@inez
i've got a bunch of characters too, if you're looking for collabs, i was thinking cosima and richard in some way? and maybe something with my mom character and your beb cailee?
@DIANA
for reference,,,, but i was thinking maybe something with cosima and elena? or a little headbutting between nicola and elena?
@inez
sweet! that sounds like the strangest, yet also purest relationship! i feel like she'd notice eventually, and maybe start with waves or "hi"s until they eventually make conversation when he feels comfortable :)
@inez
he kinda sounds like a great friend :))! cant wait to play this out
I have Felicity Drayton if anyone is interested in a collaboration with her, other than that though I'm open to just about anything so if anyone has any ideas feel free to throw them at me!
Mod
@ bubble : okieee so the good thing with cosima is that she's on the second island so it'd totally be reasonable if elena kind of started taking care of her? like i feel like a real maternal bond could be established with elena that cosima doesn't have with her mother? and that could be a source of contention in the future when/if survivors from the island ever come together because elena and nicola are superrrrr stubborn and hard headed in their own ways and with nicola's daughter involved? it can only get worse
@DIANA
perfect! i had no idea someone could sum up a collab so heckin quick! but, essentially, yes. i feel like because of their different connections to power, they'd mesh together well. also without it, they both seem to have some sort of bond when they meet up
@Xwft, wait is Alyssa going to be a half sister? Sharing mother or father?

We could pair you literally snake with my innocent doctor boy? That would create an interesting dynamic.
I wonder if Michael and my character Sam Riley may have crossed paths before? She’s one of the air marshalls on this flight, might be nice for them to have existing connection
I feel like my girl Camille might be a big fan of Richards work and is going to spend a lot of time trying to get information about his next novel.
My character Jackson could be a good match for Adria?
And I feel like my girl Ricki would definitely listen to true crime and murder podcasts, so she’d probably know his voice. She’s quite quiet so he could help bring her out of her shell a bit
@ElleI'm almost done the nephew if you still want him! I just need to know the face claim we agreed on again... totally forgot it!
Ah nice, is it okay if we hold fire for a bit? Still trying to get through to Zwink xDDo we have a name for our American family yet?
And I've worked out the timeline for Emmy and her father’s ex-gf so Alyssa can stay as a full sister to the younger kids
Yeah no problem! Just letting you know. I don't think so? Does someone want to do like a brief history so all of us know the family history. I would... but honestly I have no idea what's going on since my character isn't really affected by most of the history.
@EllaOh so does Alyssa not have to be a half child. I feel it will be more drimatic if she is, it give her motivation to hate Emmy but I don't mind either way.
Uhmmm I have no idea on a background i feel they will be a normal city family with the classic problems of school and double marriges. Tho does anyone have a last name in mind?
It's up to you, I feel like they'll be more friction if it's all the other kids vs Emmy who's the obvious outsider and then Alyssa can be particularly protective of her younger siblings who Emmy doesn't get along with? Either way, I don't think they're going to like each other. Umm, so I've got down that Emmy's mum died when she was sixteen and then she came to live with her Dad and the rest of the family. So that was three years ago? That's the only real input I have to the history at the moment. I'm thinking they'll all be from a big city? Maybe Philadelphia or Cleveland...the Dad, Henry is an engineer
I'm liking the name Lawson?
Yeah I was going to have Alyssa a protective big sis. I was thinking of having her the subject to bulling for some reason so she is really quite protective of her siblings not wanting them to go through what she did. OK coolio If the timeline works then I will happily have Alyssa as a full child yeah I agree. Bit city. I feel like that mum would be like an office lady or a lawyer or something like that.
Name Lawson works for me if it does for others.
***I agree to that, and i'll make the mum a lawyerhows the name Clarisse Lawson ? (or does she have a different surname?)
