PERMISSIONS


( contact: ) PM to this journal. I accept plurk requests at [plurk.com profile] thewriteway. ( active times/pace: ) CEST/CET player. Tries to be online at least during the evening my time, but it varies. More one tag a day player than anything, but if you hit me up at the right time, I can still boomerang a bit. ( brackets/prose: ) Definitely brackets preference, but will match, though be warned I'm terribly slow with prose. I default to present tense, but can also match other tenses. ( offensive subjects/triggers: ) Not any. ( backtagging: ) Yes, please! ( threadhopping: ) No. ( fourthwalling: ) No. ( not interested in: ) Smut, neither M/F or F/F. ( physical affection: ) Go for it. Reactions may vary depending on CR, but for the most part she'll be a good sport about it. ( physical violence: ) I'd prefer not. ( relationships: ) F/M or F/F with an F/F pref. ( psychic info: ) She has no mental barriers and will be an easy read. Ask if you need more info. ( magical info: ) No magical powers. Not opposed to playing opposite characters who have them. ( medical info: ) Nothing relevant. ( offensive subjects/triggers: ) Period-"typical" sexism and homophobia are part of her world, but can be easily avoided in casual conversation. I will never spring these things on a thread partner without asking first. Please PM me if you want me to avoid your character(s) entirely.


BACKGROUND


Jacqueline is a national treasure in France, a young starlet of a jazz singer who has taken the country by storm - now she's aiming for her American break-through along with her manager and lover, Paul. But when she meets her old sweetheart, Isabelle, who's gotten divorced in the meantime, after half a decade away from her childhood town in Northern France where they grew up together and slowly begins rekindling the relationship, she gets in trouble with Paul who's worried any rumours of Isabelle's and her romantic history will harm Jacqueline's chances on the US music scene. So, he does what he can to get Isabelle out of the way and discourage Jacqueline from seeing her anymore.
