Hi everyone!


I have a plot in mind for Cecilia, but I need a little help to pull it off.


First off let me tell you a little bit about Cecilia. She’s a very proper woman, though not by her own desire. She wishes freedom from a marriage of convenience, a marriage she only undertook because of her family’s precarious financial situation (her mother had a spending habit and after her father died, she bankrupted them and used Cecilia as a way to save the family name and clear her debts). She is a woman utterly trapped and desperately in search of something that makes her feel something more than just duty and propriety, she wants something that evokes her passion and desire, something or someone she can actually love. She has no real affection for her husband Byron, a man who wanted a beautiful well-behaved wife but doesn’t see her as something to occupy too much of his time with, often leaving her on her own for lengthy periods of time to carry out his business.

She has a desire to help others and a fondness for the theatre, something her controlling mother finds repulsive, but Cecilia still enjoys.


My idea is that while Cecilia is on her own, while Byron is away on some business trip, she meets someone. It of course is nothing but a friendship first that blossoms into more despite her efforts to deny her feelings. I think it would be interesting if he were someone her husband was familiar but that Cecilia is not aware of, and with whom Byron would find nothing suspicious with him visiting their home under some pretext but really to see Cecilia.

I think it would be more interesting if there was someone to play Byron and someone to portray the Mystery Man who wins Cecilia’s heart. I think it would be very interesting to have the three in situations together, the reluctant wife, the wealthy and somewhat controlling husband, and the man who has claim to the lady’s heart ;)


I am open to any suggestions you might have, so feel free to add something of your own if you are interested.




Thanks :D

Well, I don't know that I have anyone that could suit for this plot, but I can bring in Sarah to play with you in your new thread if you'd like someone to post with for the time being. :)

I happen to play two men, though one is old and fat and poor and the other has the emotional maturity of a seven year old. Neither of them is really romantically appealing ( I'd imagine ) but if you want them for another thread/plot that's fine and dandy. :)

I play a ton of men. :) Mebbe if you looked through the charry lists and picked one, and if it happens to be mine, yuh, sure thing (providing he's not in a thread atm, but I'd be willing to do a thread as soon as he was out, of course).

I'd love for you to join my thread :D

Pokes Jess. What about Charles, then? I was workin' on me post for him this moment!

Alright! I just wasn't sure if you wanted to continue that thread. I've modded Candace outta the way so we can move ahead or close it off, whichever you like.

Yuppers, I saw. :) You're not escaping Charles that easily, m'dear. I'll have him up quicker than you can say Jack Robinson.

:tarandfeathers:

Oh, btw, Carrie, these be the guys I play:

Alastair Broderick, Charles Bourke-Hargrave, Jean-Luc Dargeaux, John Doyle, Haverhill, Mads Jørgensen, Nils Jørgensen, Nolan Quartermaine, and (hopefully very soon) James Pryer.

Jack Robinson Jack Robinson Jack Robinson...

...and my lamb has shaken its tail twice...

(Only teasing.) Today feels like a day in which things are going to happen...lots of people logged on! Woot!

:tarandfeathers: :tarandfeathers: :tarandfeathers: and :sword: for the sheep!

Don't nix it. :tarandfeathers:

Well, I can say with confidence that lots will happen this week. :zeak:

*sends out secret-PMs*

Mjinga I looked through your characters and I think Nils would be great for the part :) I liked Alastair as well, but I think Nils would be better suited and his work would mesh well with Byron's to establish a connection between the men. What do you think?

Secret-PMs, hmmm? You evil anonymous mod, you. EVIL, I say, EVIL.

EDIT - ooooh, Nils! That would be an awesome story.

H'absolutely! He's free now too, if you want me to pop him in the thread?

Edit: And you're just jealous cos you didn't get one, Jess. :P <--she's my sister IRL so I can talk to her like that.

Wonderful!!! Pop away!!! :D

Sure thing! I'll have it up faster than you can say Jack Robinson _{twenty thousand times}!

*Jack Robinson Twenty thousand times* :P

Yes, I AM jealous. Sitting in my room without so much as a PM from anyone...I'm so lonely. :(

Jack Robinson. ;)

:tarandfeathers: x 20,000, Carrie.

:twothumbsup: hehehehe

Who the hell is Jack Robinson?

Figger of speech. :)

I knooooooooooooooooow. *kicks*

*no sense of humour* And, that hurt! :( :( :(

Awww play nice... :P

Not with HER, I don't. She's my kickie.

Yup, that's why she made me mod. Just so she could have me around to kick. ;)

Oh, well in that case...kick away :P

OMG! Et tu, Carrie? :(

There...there...do not fret....I thought you were happy with your situation. Here *gives you a look alike doll* Maybe this will fool Kris :P

Naw, she's the Evil Overlord of the Universe plus an üver-powerful Ice Witch. She'll know. It's a sad lot I have. :( *mopes*

Hehe, you have to get used to us around here. We're really contradictory, arbitrary, and altogether not quite sensible. *nodnod*

Don't worry about me...I'll fit right in ;)

I am NOT contradictory or arbitrary or not quite sensible.

Those other things were true though.

I'll be sure to keep that in mind.... Your Powerfulness :D *curtsey*

Ooo. *Likes and pets the newbie*

You are too kind :D

I am. I reallly, really am. I should be less kind. *nods to self.*
