You know I'm obsessed with your opinions so need to send you a make you choose... :)
Brooke Davis or Blair Waldorf (and why)? Obviously they're both queens, so there are no wrong answers here :)
OTH or Gossip Girl overall?
Serena or Marissa?
Ryan Atwood or Seth Cohen? (I know this is a cruel and difficult one!)
Here you go.
Blair Waldorf - I just love her and want her to have all the good things. Blair comes off as a stuck-up rich girl, but she has hidden depths. Her insecurities that stem from an emotionally abusive mother and abandonment by her father and Serena manifest as her eating disorder and a wall built to keep her safe. These things show her vulnerability. Blair protects her friends like a boss no matter what. She rallied all of them to take down Georgina when she was messing with Serena, and they weren't all on good terms at the time. There's probably tons more I could say, but I won't. Blair has quite the growth journey throughout the show. She makes me proud.
One Tree Hill - The story has more depth to me, and as you know, I love Lucas and Peyton.
Serena - I have issues with Serena, but I can't stand Marissa. Period. I do like Serena when she is being a good friend, sister, girlfriend, etc.
Ryan Atwood - I love them both for different reasons, but Ryan is my favorite, no question. He is the kindest, purest soul. He truly deserved the life the Cohens adopted him into, except for all that crap with Marissa. He deserved much better than that.

So a few people have been interested in my story Whatever Happened To Penny Atwood, and so I thought I'd post some information about what it is, some basic lore, and any little facts I can think of! I'll be popping it under cut, because it will be a LOT!
What is Whatever Happened To Penny Atwood? Whatever Happened To Penny Atwood is a short story that I originally wrote as a text based adventure game! I am currently rewriting it and making it better, along with adding any new lore I've had in mind! I plan to make more stories in this universe (currently just dubbed "Necrobots", after one of the main 'races', but I'm currently playing around with a more interesting name for the series!), though at the moment I'm only working on fleshing out the world and rewriting WHTPA ! What universe/world/timeline is WHTPA set? WHTPA is set on Ezex, a steampunk sc-fi version of Earth! It has its own cultures, languages, places, map and so, so much more! Visually, it is very heavily inspired by Victorian and Edwardian aesthetics in classic steampunk fashion, though I have also pulled elements from a few classic horror stories as well! How many different races are there in WHTPA? Currently, there are eight important 'races' in the lore; Humans, Vampyres, Lycanthrope, Dolls, C.H.A.Ps, B.L.O.K.Es, Peacekeepers and Necrobots (Necromancy Robots)! I will have a separate post diving into the lore of each, don't worry! Who are the most important characters in WHTPA at the moment? Currently, the protagonist of the story is Detective Lucas Steel (any/all pronouns), a middle aged human detective who is looking into the murder of a young girl, Penelope "Penny" Atwood. Steel has gone through a few changes over time, and may be changed again, but this is her role at the current state of the story! I'll also make an in depth post about all the characters so far, like the one about the races!! That's all I have for now! If you have any questions, comments, or interest in seeing some of the character art, my replies and ask box are always open!!

here's the moment we've been waiting for- our valentine's day blind date pairings! we had 58 characters submitted, so there's 29 pairings!
please remember that these obviously do not have to end in a whirlwind romance! the dates can end up just being two friends having a free meal, can end in a disaster, can have someone else bailing, or maybe can spark something real! the point of it all is to have fun.
the dinner will be held at Neptune on Friday February 16th in game, but threads can begin as of tomorrow! the dates can also bc hc'd as well, all we ask is that everyone paired please speak with your partners and decide on the outcomes together! we don't want anyone feeling left out or dejected.
again, this has been randomized! (with tweaks to make sure no one is paired with themselves and to avoid large age gaps) so as wild as some of these pairs may be, we hope you all have fun with it!

Some unlikely caretaker - Luke and Wendy.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Lucas pressed his eyes shut, fighting a wave of dizziness.
After quitting his meds for three weeks, he was giving them a try once more - due to a particularly prickly call to his father, that had left him feeling all sorts of shitty. He had, foolishly, expected this time around the meds would simply have him feeling like himself once again.
Pretending he had his usual amount of energy was exhausting and the worst part was that he wasn't even able to fake that well. Bella had been watching him like a hawk for the past week, squinting at him whenever Luke said something too out there.
Luke's hypothesis that the meds were making him sick was proven though, since he had been feeling fine that morning and now he felt like he was about to throw up in the middle of the park.
He had been in the gym, but soon it had started to feel suffocating, as if the ceiling was caving down on him... Luke wasn't dumb, his therapist had sat him through the symptoms of an anxiety attack and his father always used to have him sweating buckets, even before... Before.
It had seemed like a good idea to take the pills and go for a walk in the park.
He stumbled back and collapsed on a small hill, the leaves crunching under him. Luke let his head hang, taking shallow breaths through his mouth and trying to ignore the horrible tingling on his face and hands.
Lucas wasn't sure what was worse, feeling like he was threading waters with the depression or feeling this horrible, gut churning nausea and dizziness that accompanied the meds. Probably the depression, but still.
With blood ringing in his ears and trying valiantly to take a deep breath, Luke struggled to type on his phone. His fingers were sweaty, hands shaking.
Luke: Bell.
It wasn't much, he just hoped Bella would telephatically figure out what was wrong or call him back or- Her contact dot lit up, and he let out a relieved sigh.
Bella: sry, cant talk, client is chewing me up. call u in 1hr 🖤
Well that was just great. Lucas groaned, rubbing his face and falling on his back on the grass, staring at the dark clouds over his head. It was a chilly day, but it wasn't raining so there were people coming and going...
Luke squeezed his eyes shut when his vision went blurry with tears, the knot in his chest tightening even more. He wanted- He just wanted for things to feel normal again. For this horrible sensation that someone, the fucking universe, was out there to get him, to go away.
"Please just call her and stop bothering me, you dork," a familiar voice said and Luke breathed in deeply, hoping Wendy would simply not recognize him.
He wasn't an easy guy to miss, but surely she would be too enraptured by her friend to pay any attention to the fallen guy on the grass...
"Isn't that the captain?"
Oh great.
He flinched out of instinct, then suddenly Wendy's face appeared over his, her whole body blocking the grey sunlight that was being filtered by the dark clouds.
"Hi."
"Hey," Luke grimaced, squinting at her and then saying preemptively, "I'm fine."
"You're fine," she repeated, sounding skeptical, "so is this a thing you do often?"
Lucas rolled his eyes, forcing himself to sit up instead of lying on his back and immediately regretting it when the sudden movement made his head swim. He gulped down, fighting a gagging fit, his throat working against his consent.
"Here," Wendy crouched down next to him and pushed her pink water bottle before his eyes, "small sips," she fanned his face, "you're alright."
Lucas felt the furthest from alright. He took a small sip, trying to swallow, but there was a knot in his throat so tight that just this motion set off another gag.
Wendy snatched her water bottle back, shoving it on Barbie's direction, and grabbed his bicep, forcing Luke to lean forward slightly, "it's alright, are you gonna be sick?"
Lucas nodded, panting frantically. His mouth was filling up rapidly with saliva and he couldn't swallow without gagging and his head was swimming-
He let out a little, dainty burp and then coughed, with his whole body, and up came his breakfast, splashing between his spread legs and sinking on the grass, a little on the stone path of the park.
Wendy rubbed his back in circles, humming under her voice, "you're alright, get it up."
Luke let out a groan, his head hanging, trying to collect the scraps of his dignity, but his body had other ideas. His stomach was still flipping and his head hurt. He had no warning as another violent retch wrecked through him, puke stinging his nose and causing him to cough, more acidic liquid joining the mess.
He pulled back with a moan, wiping his mouth with the back of his hand, still feeling weak and shaky, "sorry-" his voice was at least a note deeper, rumbling in his chest.
Lucas tried to take in his surroundings. Wendy was kneeling on the grass next to him, wearing her gym clothes, looking terribly concerned. Her brown hair was pulled up on a perky ponytail on the top of her head and she was wearing a turquoise set, that matched Barbie's pastel green one, who was standing a couple feet away from him and grimacing in sympathy and disgust.
"Sorry," Luke repeated and Wendy squeezed his arm.
"Nothing to be sorry for," she glared at the mess, "did you catch Vin's bug?"
"No," Luke groaned, closing his eyes to avoid looking at the puddle sipping in the grass. He still felt too weak to get up and walk away from it, "no, I-"
Wendy's hand met his forehead and Lucas instinctively leaned on her touch. He wanted Bella. Or Vince. Hell, his bed would be plenty.
"Yeah, you're not warm," Wendy pulled back, squeezing his nape, "what's wrong, Lucas?"
"Meds," he groaned, swallowing convulsively when his mouth started to get all wet again. He gulped down, his stomach souring and causing him to shudder violently, "fuck- Urgh-" Luke leaned forward again, breathing through his mouth.
"Get it up, sweetheart," Wendy cooed and Luke let out a pitiful whine, trying to focus on the sensation of her small hand on his back, grounding him.
His stomach clenched again and Lucas coughed, another mouthful of barf joining the mess. He felt disgusting and ready to be done with this.
After another gut churning burp, Luke straightened up, panting so much he felt dangerously close to tears.
"You're alright, just breathe," Wendy instructed him, pushing back his bangs, as if they were much closer than they actually were. Behind her, Barbie let out a sigh.
"Wen, he doesn't look fine..."
"He's alright," Wendy insisted, grabbing Luke's arm, "we're gonna pull you up, okay?"
He nodded, weakly, and his head swam as Barbie wrapped her hands around his opposite arm and together the girls pulled him to his feet. Luke swayed dangerously and Wendy hugged him by the middle, her face tinted red thanks to the strain.
"You good?" she gasped, still hugging him and Luke leaned on her a little more, causing Barbie to squeal and sink her nails on his bicep.
"I'm good..." Lucas closed his eyes, trying to steady his breath, "I wanna go home."
"I'm gonna drive you home," Wendy reassured him, her voice all breathy, "Babs, help me take him to my car."
The next couple of minutes were a blur, because next thing Luke knew Wendy was all but lying across his lap, trying to wrap the seatbelt around him.
"Uhmmm," Luke sighed, clumsy hands trying to grab the metal buckle of the seat belt and aid her, only for Wendy to slap his hand away.
"I got this," she said sharply, causing him to let out a weak chuckle. She sounded a whole lot like Jonah.
"You said meds?" Wendy asked, pushing her water bottle back in his hand, "you think your meds caused this?"
"Uh-hu," Luke pressed his forehead to the window, breathing deeply, "every time... Get all barfy."
"Lucas," Wendy scoffed, "sweetheart, that's not right."
"Doctor said-" he hiccupped suddenly and let out a whine, clutching his chest, "s-normal to feel sick."
"Nauseous for the first couple of weeks, sure, but not literally throwing up," Wendy glared ahead, "you're taking it with food?"
Luke gulped down at the thought, his breakfast flashing in front of his eyes and causing him to groan loudly, "Wendy..."
"I'm sorry, sorry," she squeaked, chewing on her lip, "sorry... But you really should try, it helps a lot."
"Uhm," Lucas leaned forward, all but resting his forehead to the dashboard and staring at his sneakers, "Bell'ssworking."
"Want me to drive you somewhere else?"
He shook his head, "nowhere else," Luke mumbled, his lips feeling numb, "thanks- Thanks for helping."
"You mean driving you home?" Wendy sounded incredulous, "you're my friend, was I supposed to just leave you there?"
He opened a small smile at her tone, turning his head slightly, forehead still pressed to the dashboard. Wendy's fingers were drumming on the steering wheel nervously and her cheeks turned pink as she caught his eyes, all but barking "what?"
"Nothing," Lucas sighed, wrapping an arm around his stomach, "you should come over more often."
Wendy's cheeks turned even redder, "sit down right, you'll make yourself dizzier like that," she bossed instead of answering and Luke snorted.
"Yes, ma'am," he replied, lying back against the seat.

MWW Artwork of the Day (12/15/22) Henry F. Darby (American, 1829-1897) Rev. John Atwood and His Family (1845) Oil on canvas, 183.2 x 244.5 cm. The Boston Museum of Fine Arts (Karolik Gift)  
Henry Darby was seventeen years old when he created this portrait of the Atwood family of New Boston, New Hampshire. The stern-faced parents and their six children are grouped naturally in the family parlor, as though the artist had come upon them during their daily prayers. The five open Bibles in the picture advertise the family's piety (Atwood was a Baptist minister, as well as state treasurer and chaplain of the state prison). The pictures on the wall-a memorial to a dead son, and a colored print by British artist James Lucas depicting Samson carrying off the gates of Gaza-further indicate their religious commitment. The furnishings attest to the Atwoods' prosperity and provincial good taste, for the piano, table, and footstool are all in a version of the fashionable Empire style. At the center of the table, demonstrating both the family's means and their interest in the latest technology, is a newly invented smokeless argand lamp, with its expensive cut-glass prisms.
More of this artist's work appears in this MWW gallery/album: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.406257756146266&type=3

Hey all! So I intended to make this post last night along with the other WHTPA posts but I ended up falling asleep before I could! This post will go over all the characters that exist in the universe so far, what they're like in the lore's current state, and any additional lore I have about them! Same as before, I will have all the lore under the cut, and if you haven't already, I suggest reading up on what WHTPA is and also the 'races' that exist in the lore! Now to the character dump!
Penelope "Penny" Atwood (she/her) Penny is a young human girl who's death kickstarts the story itself. In the original text based adventure, I named her Poppet, and the players weren't intended to kind out she was dead until the mystery had begun! Doctor Jonathan Hawkes (he/him)
Dr Hawkes is a middle aged (mid 40s - early 50s) human man and inventor of the Necrobots. Hawkes has always had an interest in the lines between life and death, and worked in a morgue for about a decade before deciding to dedicate all his time and money into The Hawkes Corporation and, in turn, the Necrobots. Sir Simon Cogsworth (he/him)
Sir Cogsworth is a middle aged (early - mid 40s) human man and Founder/CEO of Cogsworth Robotics. Cogsworth is now a fan of Dr Hawkes' work, and has been very public about this fact since Necrobots first started production. Benjamin "Benny" Bennett (it/he)
Benny is a Necrobot who visually appears to be in his late 20s or early 30s. It has a lot of lore I can't share without spoiling a lot of the fun of his story, but I'll happily share the art I have of him some time! Detective Lucas Steel (any/all) Detective Steel is a middle aged (early - mid 40s) human, and the main person looking into Penny's death. Originally Steel was a rather boring character truthfully, but I feel like over the course of working on this lore he's gotten a lot more interesting to both write and design. James (it/they/he)
James is a Doll who visually appears to be in their mid to late 20s, and who works for Lady and Master Atwood as a babysitter and nanny. James is currently "romantically" involved with a man named Thomas Adams (he/they), and it is doing his best to help the Atwoods in the grieving of their daughter. Note for the following characters: These characters actually come from a separate short story in the same universe, called Coyote Tex! While they may be mentioned in the story here and there, they won't feature primarily in the lore until that story is fully written!
Seymour Wolfgang (he/him) Seymour is a 42 year old human man who works as a teacher at the Ashford University, and who is currently researching the Peacekeepers. He and Jack went to school together, though they have grown apart in the last few years. Coyote Jack (they/he/she) Coyote Jack is a lycanthrope gun-for-hire, mostly dealing in cases revolving around rouge robots and inorganics. He is well known in Ashford, though opinions on her and their trade are incredibly mixed, ranging from praise to downright disgust. Lawrence Crowe (he/him)
Lawrence is a 51 year old vampyre man, and a college of Seymour's. He and Seymour use to be extremely close, but due to circumstances regarding Seymour's recent divorce, they is same awkward air surrounding their relationship. Kitty Hays (she/they)
Kitty is a doll woman who appears to be in her mid to late 20s. She works as a research partner for Seymour, a task that is not common for dolls, and is only starting to surface as of late. They are extremely interested in what it means to be a woman, and is currently looking into more stereotypically feminine hobbies, having spent her first 10 years of existence as a masculine presenting individual.
