Character's name: Rin
Sexuality of your character?: Straight, but girl-friendly with alcohol
Character's personality: At first meeting, Rin seems to be a bit too normal to work for a company like Nixcore, especially in place like LA where everything tends to be a bit over the top. But it's as deliberate a move on her part as the tailored suits and outwardly calm demeanor. She's become very adept at changing her image to fit in or stand out as necessary over the years as she's bounced around from one place to another amongst different cultures and social groups. This is especially beneficial in a career where the goal is to make more people want to buy your product.

Amongst friends and outside of the office she's much more outgoing and perfectly capable of having fun like anyone else, though she rarely goes quite to the extremes that she did when she was still in the band. She'd rather avoid the horrible hangovers and the lingering smell of stale cigarette smoke that clung to her hair after a night at the bars.

Rin can be a bit sensitive about her speech patterns and will spend hours rehearsing any sort of presentation to be sure that whichever of her native languages that she is not using does not overly accent the other. She makes friends easily, having moved around so much as a kid, but finds it hard to let herself get too close. There are a few that she has managed to keep in touch with over the years and others that she wished she had, if only she knew where they had ended up. She dates occasionally, but even with her carefully crafted image, finds that most of LA is just a bit too fake and pretentious for her tastes. Or maybe she's just picky, she hasn't quite figured out which it is.

Rin app, finally >_< pt 2
[info]fiery_remnants
2009-04-05 04:21 am UTC (link)
Character's background: Rin was born on Yokota Air Base to an American father stationed at the base and his Japanese civilian wife. The small family would remain there for six years until her father was reassigned to Eglin, transplanting them all to the US. Her subsequent childhood was that of most military "brats," only staying in one place for a few years at a time. She and her mother even returned to Japan to live with her grandparents for a couple of years while her father was stationed in South Korea, her mother homesick and refusing to live at Osan which wasn't the most family friendly of bases.

Rin seemed to take the constant changes in stride, never being long without friends. She always managed to charm her way into the good graces of those around her. She'd even managed to talk one of her father's lieutenants into teaching her to play bass guitar when she was ten after seeing a group of officers performing cover songs at a squadron barbeque.

She wasn't completely ignorant to the growing strain between her parents, but rather saw it through a child's naive view that everything would be fine once they were living together again. They hadn't even been at Edwards for a year before her mother was again packing their belongings to return to Japan, this time with no intention of waiting around for her husband to come fetch them. Her father who, despite his sense of duty, had always only wanted the best for his family, chose not to stop them this time. He always spent his leave in Japan, but after the first time or two, it was only Rin who came to see him.

Rin herself wasn't entirely thrilled to be back in Japan due to the circumstances, missed spending time with her father, and began what started as a quiet rebellion. High school was her first experience with a non-military sponsered school and though she kept up her grades and participated in clubs for her mother's sake, her choice of friends wasn't what her mother had come to expect from her. Shortly after graduation, instead of heading straight into college like was expected of her, Rin took off for Tokyo with her bandmates, causing more than a little bit of a ruckus with her mother.

They tried their hand at living the dream of being musicians, playing in various dives for crowds that were hard on unknowns if they were even lucky enough to get a gig. She did her best being the band's main promoter, but it was hard to get noticed amongst so many other groups doing the same thing. Somehow they decided that America would be a better opportunity and, while they'd managed to book a few decent performances, it still just didn't work out in the end. Two of the members went back home, Obito seemed to fade away into whatever odd jobs he found, and Rin went for Plan B.

Plan B had her moving to LA where her father was considering retirement and getting into college to study marketing. Between some of the firms that she'd interned for and people she'd met while doing an odd modelling job, Rin was beginning to amass an interesting and eclectic collection of contacts in all corners of "the biz." Though which one exactly had given her name to Nixcore and gotten the interview, she wasn't entirely sure. It was also the type of company, regardless of her job within it, that would be sure to send her mother into a fit, but it had amused Rin enough that she'd agreed to an interview and again at the subsequent job offer. The fact that she'd recognized the name of one of the actors advertised on their website only had a little to do with her decision...

PB for your character?: Hasegawa Kyōko

Sample Post/Prompt: She almost didn't recognize the girl onstage, nimble fingers moving over the strings of the bass guitar in that ridiculously short skirt and oh god those boots! Rin gave a wince as she remembered just how uncomfortable those boots had been. Sure, they'd looked great on her and given her a little bit of height and presence during a show, but she'd not cried over them the day they'd gotten thrown out.

Their band hadn't been great, but they'd been enthusiastic and she had enjoyed most of the two years on the road in Tokyo and then the US until it had all fallen apart. This video had been shot at one of their last shows (one of the few good ones, honestly) and had been followed by an insane night of alcohol-induced frivolity that had left her feeling a bit lonlier than usual after the hangover had subsided.

She'd had an on again/off again relationship with the drummer ever since her senior year of high school, but they'd been very much off at this point. And they'd had a couple of groupies, mostly bored college students who liked to get drunk and ogle the foreigners. It shouldn't have bothered her that he'd been all over that fake-blonde that she could now see on her tv, bouncing around near the front of the stage. But they'd all ended up at someone's apartment after the show, she never had figured out whose, and the alcohol had been flowing a little too freely.

Rin had spent a good half hour fending off an overly-friendly pair of hands and the leering eyes that went with them, pretty sure that the dick that controlled them both was only looking at her since she could easily pass for jailbait. Her bandmates weren't anywhere in sight, not even Obito who she'd last seen in search of more tequila long enough ago that she could only imagine what sort of trouble he was getting himself into. As she'd been working her way towards an escape, she'd seen them, hands suspiciously out of sight and tongues down each others throat right in the middle of all of those people.

Shaking her head to clear away the thoughts that had started creaping in, she stopped the video. The past might be just that, but she was hoping that the one person she regretted losing contact with would be as excited to see her as she was him. Even if it was because of porn.

Are you at least 17? Yeeeeeeeeees

Past RP Experience: A huge list, oh and the fact I play Itachi and Udon here~

Character's name: Kakashi Hatake
Sexuality of your character?: Homosexual, not that he openly reeks of it or shows interest towards others
Character's personality: Calm, relax, easy going, those would be the best way to describe him. Quite a change it has been from the very uptight and straight lined approach he used to have of the past, learning to let things go and experience the world for what it is, that everything doesn't have to conform to the way society is. Yet, he is still very dedicated when he sets himself to something and will do whatever it takes to complete the task just as long as it is within reason. He won't boast or show off, overcompensation for things (including that) and doesn't beat around the bush when it comes to saying anything, coming straight out and telling you to your face his thoughts without an air of arrogance to it. He just tells it as he sees is, no sugar coating, no butt pat to soften the impact. He is as straight forth as they come.

However, Kakashi is an extremely private person and tends to keep all aspects of his life a secret, only sharing what he is willing to which is not much. He will distance himself from a person which makes getting to know him on a deeper level very hard which has affected any prior relationships he has had. Never has he had anything more than the on/off again relationship with people that lasted more than a few dates, keeping a thick wall up just to stop people getting close to him. This also makes him oblivious to the feelings that are directed towards him unless vocally stated in some way, terrible at picking up innuendo or anything close.

Although he doesn't show much interest in most things, not talking about likes, dislikes, anything like that, there is one thing that Kakashi does show and that is his interest to pornography. If it has been made, he will watch it, if it had been printed, he will read it. It is somewhat of a teenager school crush gone wrong with the amount he has collected ove the years. Heterosexual, homosexual, lesbian, it doesn't matter what it is but he has his preferences. The key is the artistic value in it, something about it is just so alluring but the ones that strikes out the most to him is reading erotic fiction which he tends to get giddy like a little school girl over the newest teen 'hunk' when a new book comes out. Porn is not just something to fap to and go to bed with a happy smile, it is a very beautiful experience... that you can fap to.

Character's background: Losing a parent is never easy for anyone especially at a young age. Kakashi's mother had died during childbirth so he never got to know her, his father was left with the job of raising him. It was tough at first to get over both the loss and having a newborn, managing just like any father would with the natural instinct to provide for his family but times it was strained. Not the relationship between them but because of what he did for a living. His father was an agent for a record label with a few top charting bands under his watchful eye that made it hard to always be there for Kakashi but when he was, he made up for it plus he got to hang around with the cool people and not even know it. That helped to contribute to what he wanted to do with his life.

He was five when he first came to the recording studio with his father, meeting one of the groups he managed, watching them with amazement on how great they sounded. Everything sounds great when you are that young but this was something different, magical and wonderful. During the set break, one of the guitarists came over to talk to him, striking up a random conversation with this child since he was a father himself, keeping Kakashi company. The bright eyed child told him that he wanted to be exactly like he was and make it big and famous which was responded with light hearted laughter at the huge ideals of a child as well as a chance to play with his guitar. The first time he touched that guitar he knew it was meant to be. This was what he wanted to do. He was going to be a famous guitarist in some little known band that would one day hit the spotlight big time and they would be playing to tens of thousands of people in a packed out stadium. A child's dreams were always extravagant and over the top and so were Kakashi's, being surrounded by the best bands in the business there was of that day was awe inspiring. Sneaking into the studio while the members were on break, Kakashi started to practise, not that he had any idea what he was doing at all with an over-sized guitar that his hands could barely strum but he gave it his all until the next day when his father spotted the enthusiasm and got him a teacher and a proper one more suited for his smaller body.

It was a fool's dream to lead thinking that you were going to be someone famous but he dedicated himself to playing, keeping up his grades at a perfect level at school, following through with spending every waking moment playing. All of the other kids at school were more concerned with playing playing soccer and baseball, Kakashi had his guitar. Life was exactly the way it was meant to be.

Not exactly.

The downward spiral his father was hurdling towards was not noticed until it was too late. Coming home from school one day he found him dead, a suicide note left behind without any real reason to why he had done it, his last words only spoke love for his son and apologizing that he could not be there for him. Kakashi was devastated by the loss but he didn't show it, none of his peers even knowing without any real close friends to confide in about it so he pushed it all down which was not the best option to do. He was too young to live on his own so Kakashi was sent to a foster family, never once telling anyone that asked that they were not his real family nor discrediting it either. He became distant from everyone just to keep up with life and in turn threw himself into everything he could just to ignore the fact that his own father rather take his own life than to work through it with him. Eight, nearly nine years old he was at the time. There was nothing he could have done for him regardless.

The only thing that kept him sane during that time as his music, still playing the guitar all through the rest of his schooling years that hopefully soon would pay off, finding a notice on a billboard for a band that was in need for a guitarist that he went to audition for. It was not always the best of times between him and the other members especially with one in paticular that he was constantly bickering with, something about him and his carefree nature that he couldn't put his finger on that got under his skin. That still didn't stop him from agreeing with the rest of them to go to America to try and make it big, packing up and shipping out leaving all the past behind him.

Living the rock star dream was not some glamorous tale, the hard work and effort he had to put into it was constantly a never-ending struggle when others weren't willing to pull their weight. Tensions grew even more between them until Kakashi took matters into his own hands to sort it out. It wasn't meant to go down like that and it would soon end his career that he had strive so hard to achieve. After a disagreement that went too far, he ended up down at the hospital getting his hand patched up after cutting himself so deep that it severed tendons leaving him unable to play the guitar properly again.

That dream was dead.

Shortly after that, the band went their separate ways and they lost touch with each other. Kakashi floated around from city to city looking for work. He tried to get into other bands for filler positions, unable to do more than a set, two if he was pushing it. Taking other avenues for cash he took up a couple of random modelling jobs ranging from toothpaste to Target catalogues, nothing to call a real living but it got him by. During that time away from it all, he started to see things in a different light, how his ways were the reason why he was no longer able to play and slowly he started to change influenced by an old friend. Kakashi started to lighten up and not take everything so seriously, enjoy himself instead of pushing himself too hard and just sit back and observe for once. Eventually he landed himself in Los Angeles once again on the look out for something to do to see him through to the next move if he decided not to settle on this place. Time would see if he would or not, if there was anything there to keep him grounded for more than a couple of months.

Sample Post/Prompt: Lost in L.A.

Finding your way around a new city should be easy, should be. There are always signs for tourists that point out which way to go and where the exciting attractions are for the city, maybe a bus route that would take you by some of the major features of the city like shopping centers, parks... anything. Nothing at all that he could at least find. Okay so being new in a city wasn't exactly the walk in the park he would thought it would be and at this rate, he was going to be late for his job interview. Better start thinking up excuses now on why he was tardy for what ultimately could be his new employment.

Umm he couldn't find a bus... no everyone used that. He got lost. As true as it was, it would not fly with employers and they usually gave a big argument on if you want this job, you should at least have prepared earlier. How about he saved a little old lady from bring crushed to death by a billboard! That happens all the time in everyday life. Now that was an excuse for the ages.

A further walk down the path to find something that would point him in the right direction, scanning up, down, all around for that sign he was waiting for. And there it was. Across the road was a bus loading up passengers that was heading who knows where but it had to lead him somewhere. Anywhere. Out of this area at least because it was clearly not the one he needed to be in. Shoving his hand up in the air calling for him to stop like if he was a taxi needing to grab their attention, Kakashi proceeded to run across the road to make that bus before it drove off. Cars honked and screeched to a halt, heads out the window abusing him for not watching where he was going, one finger salutes raising just as high as his own hand giving their own signal of attention.

So close, so very close. He had braved broken limbs and death to get to the bus only to see it pull away from the curb right when he was at the opposite side of it, clearing the path for him to get back up on the footpath but now he was busless. Puffing and panting, his hands rested on his knees, hunched over taking a quick breather to get his heart rate back down to normal after its near-death experience. Well. That wasn't exactly the way it was supposed to go. Now no amount of excused he could use could save his ass, he would be...

Kakashi's eyes suddenly sparkled brightly as he caught a glimpse of what he was in front of, the display in the shop window calling out to him like a sign from the gods. It was the most stunning thing he had ever seen in his life. "The new one is out," he gasped out loud to himself. His holy oasis was there beckoning him to come and have a taste of the sweetness displayed in the form of rows of neatly displayed books and cardboard cut outs.

A look to the left, another to the right, looking like the most shadiest of people making sure they weren't being watched while entering a whore house before throwing himself at the window of the store arms wide, snuggling the boundary with his cheek. The third book! How long had he waited for this moment. With all the shifting around between states, he hadn't been keeping up to date with the release and now out of nowhere it was here. He had to buy it. Losing a job was a worthwhile cause for one of the most greatest series of all time. Nothing was going to stop him from owning that book and spending the next day glued to it in heart racing suspense.

...Oh...

There was something that would stop that from happening such as the moths that were fluttering out of his wallet when it was opened, dead ass broke. This was cruel plot device. The love of his life was right there just out of grabs, the flashing lights around the display yelling at him to come in an buy were taunting him. It was... Kakashi sighed and stepped back, wiping away the face print he had left behind from his up close and personal viewing. Okay, so now he really did need that job, that was becoming more and more apparent.

Stuffing his hands back in his pockets looking down inwardly forlorn for his loss, a piece of paper came tumbling by in the breeze tacking to his leg, fluttering about wanting to move but not able to. First no job, then no book and now getting rubbish caught to you. Kick you while you are down is one thing but repetitively stomping you in the balls was another. "Huh...?"

Maybe not. After prying the paper from his leg and dusting it off, it appeared to be an advertisement of some sorts. "Nixcore." Strange name for a company. One thing that stood out clearly was the bolded emphasis on the fact that it was a company that made adult movies. That was perfect. He knew more than enough about them, an expert in the field really and these places paid big money to work in them according to half of the documentaries and interviews that he read about them.

A look back at the book in the store window and then down to the pamphlet, humming in decision if he should go for it or not. What the hell. There could be at least something he could do there even if it was picking up trash and left over soiled refuse. Sure, a 9 - 5 job had perks for stability, it had holidays, it had office bitching and all the tomfoolery associated being cramped in a room with stuffy air-conditioning.

And that was Kakashi's mind made up.

Nixcore it was. First thing was first... how long until that bus came back and would it even take him anywhere near there.

Are you at least 17? yes ma'am

Past RP Experience: Ino at HC and I was Tenten at Grocerverse, but I believe all the logs are long gone.

Character's name: Ino Yamanaka
Sexuality of your character?: Straight for dating and most situations but open to bringing girls into the bedroom with them~.
Character's personality:

Because of Ino's Prima donna attitude and her apparent airheadedness, people often think she's stupid. She's not. It's a cunning ruse to trick people into either underestimating her or to weasel out of potential responsibility. In reality, she's cunning, scheming, and extremely good at getting into people's heads... but her short temper rather gets in the way of her intentions half the time. Sometimes she doesn't even realize she's being manipulative, because it comes so naturally to her. She considers herself a good person despite being aware of the fact she's not exactly Mother Teresa, but doesn't much consider the people she wrongs so much as she bases her opinion of herself on the praise of those close to her. So, so long as people are around to tell her she's not a bad person, that she's pretty, etc., or simply to just want to spend time with her, she considers that she must be a good person.

Ino is extremely easy to win over. Some people try to buy her things, but it's so much simpler than that... a well-delivered compliment can completely turn around Ino's mood. In fact, she expects to hear compliments often, and can get in a sour mood if any girl but her is the center of attention. She can be downright ruthless when pitted against another girl. It's juvenile, but she has a habit of wanting guys only after other girls show interest in them, then losing interest as soon as they reciprocate or the other girl ceases to be jealous.

Because of her constant need for praise, she has a tendency to compare herself to others. Often. Even if it's like comparing apples to oranges. And as conceited and vain as she seems, she can look at a girl on the street and wonder how she could ever get her hair to look as good as hers, or lament that she would never look as good in heels as she does. She has a covetous personality, always wanting more than she has, and rarely satisfied by what she does have. As a result she tends to seem like a copycat, and sometimes she is, but mostly she's just scared of being left out of the loop. If she senses a new trend starting she will try to hop on it as soon as possible so that she can say she was doing it since before it was cool. Her self-esteem is thusly pretty delicate despite thinking so highly of herself, and can be easily punctured by someone who knows the right buttons to push or the right things to say. She bounces back easily enough, but gliding around on wings of wax means that she crashes a lot, and she never quite catches on as to why.

Overall though, she really isn't a bad person. She cares in her own way, generally by bossing her friends around and telling them what she thinks they should do even if they don't want her opinion. If someone close to her was home sick, she'd bring them soup (from the store). If someone lost their dog, she would help them make or put up signs. She is always, always on the lookout for situations she can stick her nose in, and feels that Ino Knows Best 101% of the time.

She's cheeky, flirty, selfish, persistent, stubborn, childish, pushy, naggy, vain... but she's loyal almost to a fault. If someone wrongs her or her friends, they should expect serious retribution from the blonde. Outwardly to most people she attempts to display a cool, charming, charismatic and regal. She succeeds most of the time.

Character's background:

As a child, Ino would proudly exclaim that she was going to marry her daddy when she grew up. It was purely innocent, because obviously she grew out of that phase, but her mother didn't have to insist coldly that Ino couldn't marry her father because she was already married to him. She was always and will always be a daddy's girl, always going to him with problems or questions. Her mother let him handle her most of the time, which he and Ino seemed fine with, and as a result she held a great respect for him... not so much for her mother.

Her family owned a popular local flower shop just outside of LA and they did fairly well for themselves. Ino was always expected from around middle elementary school to help out with the shop, which she loved doing even if she complained. Ino was a normal student, sometimes breaching into the A honor roll. They were an upper-middle class family, and since she was an only child, she didn't often go wanting for things. She was definitely spoiled but not spoiled rotten, just used to getting her way and things she asks for, especially from her father. And the older she got, the more she realized she got her way with not just her father, but also boys in general.

She was a serious flirt in middle and high school, boy crazy and prone to obsessing over infatuations. Ino had a bad reputation at school for being something of a tramp, but it wasn't actually true; she didn't have her first time until attending Junior prom with her boyfriend at the time. Okay well maybe she did "other things" as teenagers describe them, with other boys, but not many things, and not many boys. The rumors were just greatly exaggerated, but she still didn't appreciate being called a slut. She dealt with it by pretending it didn't bother her, acting like she didn't hear the comments, but it did bother her and she did hear them.

Once done with high school she worked full time at the family shop, then enrolled part-time into the East Lost Angeles College (community college) at her father's request. She expected to take over the family business so she wasn't terribly concerned with getting schooling, even though she had dreams of greatness and fame and fortune. She was prone to daydreaming but had her head pretty well out of the clouds, so although she dreamt of a fancy life she didn't especially consider it an option.

Always on the lookout for ways to get attention, Ino signed up on YouTube and started uploading pointless videos of herself, herself and her friends, her cat. Silly things like dancing, or re-enacting popular movie clips. Then she moved on to recording makeup tutorials, showing people how to apply makeup for special events or even just for work. She had a great time doing it and dutifully filled requests made by her viewers for particular styles or tips, but there were always the ever-present YouTube trolls: guys asking to see her tits, making crude comments, saying how hot she was, etc. It so happened that her current boyfriend had moved across the country for college, and the two purchased webcams to be able to keep in contact. It also just so happened that she found out he'd been cheating on her, and in an act of anger spurned on by a morbid curiosity, Ino entered the (now-defunct) live.yahoo.com and explored the world of webcam stripteases in private chats. It wasn't the strangest thing; she'd sent her boyfriends sexy photos of herself on their phones even back in high school, and wasn't exactly shy to begin with. She called herself Dahlia, after her favorite flower. No way would she sully her family's name with her antics... and well she didn't want her father finding out. But also she knew it would be bad for their family business.

Things got busy in her life and she forgot about her webcam escapades for a little while. She moved out of her parents house but not too far, into a tiny apartment that she could afford on her small earnings from the flower shop. Went through a few more boyfriends. Tried finding a second job but couldn't juggle two jobs and her school, but wanted more cash. It was then that she again foraged into the webcam world, getting one of her school friends to set her up her own site. She was very business-minded to begin with, so she built her concept around wanting to stream live, 24/7. At first she knew it wasn't possible -- she needed an audience, a fan base -- and so she set up an Amazon wishlist, a chat, and her feeds. She told all of her Yahoo! Live "friends" about her site and started taking requests for videos. The things purchased from her Amazon wishlist by her clients, she always unwrapped via webcam so they could watch her get her present. Her friend set her up with ads on her site, and so she started getting extra revenue in addition to getting fun stuff from Amazon.

Ino wasn't stupid, she knew that doing things every other camwhore did wouldn't keep her customers coming back. Sure she had some die-hard fans, and she appreciated it, but she needed to reach a wider audience. She somehow coerced the guy she was dating at the time to allow her to stream their bedroom antics over her cam, and although he admitted later it was kind of creepy, her viewers ate it up. Her requests got odder, but not always gross -- they wanted to see her cleaning, making lunch, brushing her teeth. She upgraded to a fancy laptop with a built-in camera so she could more easily move around the apartment with it, rigged other cameras in her bedroom, bathroom and kitchen, set up a donation link on her site instead of outright charging (which actually earned her revenue faster by some act of god) and launched her 24/7 feed. She intended to spend as much time in her apartment as possible, although she left for work and for social things, and enrolled only in online classes to keep close to her laptop. That specific computer did not ever leave her apartment, because she had no desire for it to get stolen or lost with the content saved on it. She'd open her mail in front of the camera, show off her cat Daisy to her viewers, talked to them about her day... she felt more of a connection with some of her more dedicated fans than she did to some of her real friends. It was clear that she put her all into her site, and it was so much more real than most other girls. She has a serious internet presence: MySpace, Facebook, Livejournal/Blogs, YouTube (where she still uploads her work-safe videos and posts videos talking to her fans), twitter... if it's a social networking site, she's there, and she's addicted. Her iPhone is never too far from her, and she's a slave to both it and the internet in general after sequestering herself away for her site.

In fact, she even spent a short stint on World of Warcraft after a few of her clients purchased her the game and a few months of playtime. They also did all of the work for her, gave her oodles of gold and awesome armor and weapons... and on top of that, paid to have a feed of her playing the game. With clothes on. That earned her a whole new audience.

Between generic shows you could find on any camwhore's site, the generic (clothed or not) duties around her apartment and the occasional boy she brought home for webcam antics (they always stared at her oddly when she presented a release form for them to sign), she also tackled a smattering of fetish requests but nothing that creeped her out. Feet? Okay. Silly costumes? Great! Diapers? No, sir. No no no. Yes, she did it for the money, but she also loved her fans and her viewers (most of them, anyway) and genuinely wanted to make them happy when she could... because the happier they were, the more they told her how hot/sexy/beautiful/wonderful/fuckable she was and the more prone they were to spending money on her. Constant praise from boys? Plus money? Why was this considered taboo in most of America, again?

Unfortunately, a few creepy guys found her due to her popularity. One of them in particular found out where she lived, and although she called many people stalkers for doing things that weren't actually stalker-worthy, this one definitely was a stalker. She lived alone and the apartment complex didn't fix the lights outside of her place, so it wasn't the safest location for a budding camwhore to live. It started with creepy letters that included his body hair, printed screencaps of his computer while he chatted with her during her webcam events, marriage proposals... and escalated from there, including phone calls in which he would only breathe heavily. After a particularly hair-raising experience with the man waiting for her to come home from the flower shop for a week straight (she had to get friends of hers to go back to her apartment with her, whereupon he would leave) she realized that no, she was not safe. She tried filing a police report on the man but they claimed he hadn't done anything to justify a restraining order, so she was forced to move and simply hope he didn't follow her. It was a safer complex she moved into, an indoor community that required card-access and, of course, higher rent. But she was young, beautiful, in demand... she couldn't very well stop, and she could only move forward, while she was still wanted.

It was at that point that Ino made the business decision to look for an actual company to manage her. It seemed the safer alternative to doing everything herself, because clearly she wasn't careful enough. Not only that but many of her customers were requesting things she simply could not pull off in her apartment on her own, and she felt that starting her own business to run her webcam business... was just a little too far. Don't ask her, the logic is flawed and she knows it. Ino had no intention of completely stopping her webcam site, because she loved her fans too much to abandon them, and most companies didn't particularly like that idea. She approached a few local companies and was dismissed like every other camwhore who wanted to break into the big business, until she heard the pleasant voice of the secretary at Nixcore. Being treated like a person? Yes, please. Thank you~.

Sample Post/Prompt:

In a stroke of genius, Ino had decided to set her laptop up on the bed. Why she hadn't thought of it earlier she would never fully understand, but she was kind of too preoccupied to think of it in much detail. For you see, the cute guy she'd met at Starbucks was busily taking her doggy-style, while she propped herself up on her elbows and typed replies to the people in her webcam chatroom. They weren't even asking things she thought they might, no. They wanted to know what she was having for dinner that night, whether her hands were cramping or not as she typed, what music was playing quietly in the background. She obliged them all, tapping quietly on the keys while Starbucks Guy tapped her in kind. Just in a different way.

Although her breath was growing ragged and she began to have a problem with not only keeping her mouth from hanging open, but also with typing coherently, she soldiered on. That is, until the guy suddenly pulled out and threw his hands up in the air.

"That's it," he said, shaking his head and fumbling for his clothes. "It's just -- THAT," he motioned at the laptop, "is just too much. I didn't sign up this shit." He grumbled as he hopped into his pants awkwardly.

Ino looked over her shoulder in surprise, ass still in the air, and just watched him calmly with a smirk as he threw a hissy fit. Glancing back to the laptop so that her viewers could see the way she rolled her eyes and smiled and bit her lip, she did nothing to move or even attempt to stop him from leaving. In fact, the way she litfted her eyebrows and looked upwards, she looked like she thought it was pretty funny.

The guy wasn't sure how to leave exactly on that note, so he lingered awkwardly for a few seconds before gruffly saying "bye" and heading out of the bedroom and towards the front door.

Finally, Ino called out to him when she suspected he was almost to the door. "Call me!" But the humor in her voice was so obvious, and after the door slammed she burst into a fit of laughter, rolling onto her side and then her back. It wasn't the first time a guy had been too intimidated by being broadcasted live over the internet, so she didn't take it nearly as bad as the first time it had happened. Now she just thought it was hilarious, and looked upside at the camera with a huge grin. "What a loser!"

The blonde smoothed her hair back behind her ears and rolled onto her knees, adjusting the laptop just so to accommodate her lack of a partner. "Okay, so... I'll finish what he started," she said to the camera, crawling back to her nightstand and reaching, fumbling, to get the drawer open, and to remove something from it. "Then turn on the shower cam... And oooo, then I'll order pizza~. What do you guys think..." Idly, she sat back with her toy and turned the base on the slim device, causing a whirring noise began to hum steadily from it. "Hawaiin orrrrrr..." She shot a mischievous grin to the camera, wrinkling her nose in a way she knew to be cute. "Sausage~?"
