about me
About me
Alias: Feel free to call me Jay! I do tend to sign things off with a simple 'J'
Age: 19
Pronouns: he/him/his
Timezone: CET
Languages: German, English, Spanish (though english is highly prefered)
About Me: I'm a full time college students with an additional job! During my free time I write and read a lot, I crochet and sometimes I translate some things for friends and family.
I spent a lot of time with my studies which results in me not having a lot of hobbies besides writing.
If I could describe myself with one song what would it be? 'Spring' by ProvinzAbout Roleplaying
Experience: I've been writing stories ever since I learnt how to put down sentences. I started roleplaying a long time ago... I think almost ten years ago? (Early internet access is something I do not recommend). I started everything with a simple script-style roleplay but soon entered the part of writing where actual sentences are necessary. Ever since then the amount of how much I write per response has only increased.What plot (or plots) would I like to play out with someone? Currently I'm highly interested in any kind of plots that explore the darker corners of the human mind. What can and can't be done by humans? Where are the limits and how to they affect relationships and surroundings? I'm always open to some kind of romance! You can always catch me with some good horror!
Maybe I should add here that I mainly (almost exclusively) do MxM pairings.How often do I generally post? I can not promise an answer a day but I do try to post as frequently as possible. At least once a week, if possible more.How much do I generally post? That honestly depends on my partner. Generally I tend to write replies that reach the discord limit at least twice, sometimes more.Do I like to write in the first person or third person? Third person only.How do I feel about writing out graphic scenes such as violence, drug use, and sex? Generally I'm very fine with detailed writing of violence and sex. However drug use is something I'd have to decide from case to case. It's not my preferred things but I'm not triggered by it.
about my writing
It was mesmerising to watch the red liquid flow through transparent tubes and into a big bucket. Juanjo could sit right there and watch it for ages. He enjoyed the steady humming of the machine behind him and the cold air tugging on his exposed forearms. “It feels nice, right? To be helpful to science.” He mumbled, lifting his head to look into the eyes staring at him. There was barely any life left behind in them. Sweat was dripping down the pale forehead of the man lying on top of the table. “I promise I’ll mention your name when I go up on stage to claim my doctor title.” Juanjo smiled, not at all concerned by the scene in front of him. He knew it was for a good cause, he knew he would reach his goal like this. His teacher had said it himself. The best practice is done on the living. That was exactly what Juanjo was doing.The man on top of the table had stopped making sounds long ago. He was drifting in and out of consciousness for the past twenty minutes and if Juanjo’s calculations were correct the man on the table should die within the next few minutes.
And Juanjo was right. He watched the man’s eyes roll back as the lids closed and the man’s chest deflated for one last time. The human’s body was pale. Juanjo liked the view, he liked how he could see the veins stretching underneath the almost transparent skin. His gloved fingers travelled over naked arms and then over a naked chest that lay still without any movement. “Which one…” Juanjo drifted off and walked over the small table that was placed in the far corner of the room. On top of it lay an old book, open on a page that portrayed the human body and its organs. “Bladder? Liver? Kidneys…”Another few moments passed until the man had decided on the liver. He grabbed a glass full of preservative fluid from his shelf and carried it over to the dead body. Then Juanjo carefully cut open the corpse's body with a scalpel before taking out the liver and putting it down into the fluid, closing the lid quickly. “Qué bonito.”
Once that was done the killer went inside to change out of his surgery clothes. It was around 3am by now and despite summer waiting around the corner it was still freezing outside. Juanjo pulled on a pair of black denims, a dark blue turtleneck and a black coat which he adored. The pants were pulled tight with a silver belt and before heading towards the car Juanjo pulled a pair of leather gloves from the pocket of his coat which he put on.The drive to the woods was silent, no radio playing and no one else on the road. All Juanjo could hear was the steady rumble of the engine and the occasional thumb of the corpse jumping in the trunk when passing a hole in the road.
The man parked his car at the end of the road and carried the dead body into the woods by himself. After finding a good spot he set the corpse down on the ground and removed the fabric he had wrapped the body in. The fabric was replaced by a red towel which Juanjo pulled out from the other pocket of his coat. The towel was wrapped in plastic. The man unwrapped it and draped it over the body. “Soon our names will be known by everybody.”The killer walked back to his car and stored the fabric underneath one of his seats. And then… when looking up because of the sound Juanjo watched a car drive past him. He swallowed, the woman in the car had looked right at him. Now she knew Juanjo was in the woods in the middle of the night. She knew what he looked like. Minutes of silence passed and Juanjo tried to figure something out that would help him to build an alibi. Who didn’t the police suspect? Witnesses? Witnesses! That was good but how would Juanjo call the cops?His plan went into action as soon as he reached the nearest pay phone. He had walked there and sounded out of breath when someone finally picked up. That was good, it’d help him to fake the shock he should be in.
“There-“ he paused, swallowing audibly “I think I- I found a dead body.” Expectedly Juanjo was asked to wait for the police at the pay phone and lead them to the body he ‘had found’. When they arrived Juanjo was weirdly calm for someone who had just seen a corpse but the police didn’t seem to take note of that.The man lead them through the woods to the body and was then asked to wait with them for someone who’d take care of them.
At around 4.30am Juanjo was standing in front of a tall male that looked down on him. He seemed to be a few years older than Juanjo but it was visible he had not been in the business for too long yet. It’d be easy to trick him, Juanjo thought.
The killer waited patiently to be asked the necessary questions. “Yes, I found it. Didn’t touch it if you want to know that.” His voice was calm, almost cold as if it didn’t bother him at all that there was a dead body lying only a few metres away from them. Juanjo didn’t offer to leave fingerprints for the detective, knowing if they found any matches on the corpse he’d be suspect number one. He had worn gloves throughout the whole process but you could never be safe enough.
What was he doing here? While waiting for the police the man had thought of something that seemed plausible. “I was looking for my dog. A friend left her with me for the night but I forgot to lock the door. I don’t live far from the woods so I thought she might’ve come here.” Juanjo didn’t have a friend with a dog but if there should be any more questions he could just say that they never found the dog again, right?At the next question the man glanced over at the corpse, making a face for a split second. He could see a bug crawling over the face, a shiver ran down his spine. “I don’t know him, sorry. He looks pale, doesn’t he?” Juanjo frowned for a moment as if he was thinking, considering something. “Do you think this could’ve been done by an animal? He’s as pale as if he saw a ghost.” The man shrugged lightly, giving the detective a helpless smile.Contacts? There would be no harm in wiriting down the real information, right? Juanjo could only get into more trouble if he lied now. “It‘s Juanjo Ruiz. I don’t use the phone regularly but if you do need to reach me it’s 638196. I’m home during the evenings. If you do need to reach me earlier you can call the medical school two towns over. I study there, they will get me on the phone for you.”
The man pulled the leather gloves from his hands and stored them in the pockets of his coat. He was starting to sweat which wasn’t necessarily a good sign. “May I ask for your name? Just so I know who I will be expecting to call me.” A short smile was aimed at the detective before Juanjo’s gaze wandered behind the other again and to the dead body. He was extremely proud of this one. “Do you think his death was worth something? Poor man.”
About my partner
About you

Timezone: I really don't care about your timezone. We can work almost every time difference. Though I do think it gets hard with a difference bigger than 6-7 hours.

Experience: You don't have to be a pro in roleplaying, I'm not one myself. However I prefer my partners to have some kind of experience with roleplaying. If you want to know why I can surely give an explanation in private.Characters: Please have a general idea of the OC you'd like to write with. It doesn't have to be fleshed out but I prefer to know what kind of character I'm writing against. You don't have to have an idea when we start talking but there definitely should be some kind of idea before the story starts. I'm gladly offering my help if you need any.Style: Please be open wo write in third person and preferably past tense. I do not do any first person roleplays.
You should be able to write a few paragraphs, preferably matching my lenght. However I do understand that some scenes do not call for really long answers.
Regarding grammar I do ask for you to have some common sense. Mistakes happen but you should know how to use punctuation and how to conjugate common verbs.
