Andrei Janekovich Yolkov will be played by Connie

Connie, when I wrote Andrei, I knew accepting him held the potential of being a very difficult decision. He was a joy to write and all of his passion was so damn infectious. Not only did you manage to completely embody everything we could have dreamed for Andrei, but you gave us something extra. Choosing to capitalize on his fear of his ability was such a clever idea, and we think it worked really well! We’re more than happy to officially welcome you to the group. We can’t wait to see what else you have in store.

We have a fc masterlist, which you can find here!I’m currently in the works of making a masterlist page, and I’ll edit this post to include the link as soon as it’s done :) 

Edit: And [here] is the masterlist! 

Anon, I’m sorry but that sentence is taken out of context. In that thread, Nikolas was taking care of an injured character, who was amused by his name. He went along with it for the time being, and the pair exchanged jokes, but that by no means meant that calling himself a puppy was normal behavior for him. Nevertheless, Admin Lee agrees that he can be more conscientious in future interactions. If this is still an issue, please definitively say so, so that we can take immediate corrective measures.

Hey there Anon, we’re very sorry that Nikolas’s nickname is causing you distress. The reason he goes by his nickname is because he is a runaway character and finds more security going by an alias than his true name. ‘Pup’ was a name given to him on the streets because of his love of stray dogs, and it is an integral part of his identity (all of this is in his bio). We want to make this clear at least: When Nikolas is referred to as ‘Pup’, it isn’t with malicious and especially not fetishizing intent; Nikolas’ character and faceclaim are both underage, so that idea would not be tolerated by us.  

Lee and I spoke at great lengths over the matter, and have concluded that we’d like to keep Nikolas’s nickname because of how important it is to his character. Please send us another message if this isn’t acceptable, and if that’s the case, we’ll retire Nikolas entirely.

Elena Vladimirovna Ostrovsky will be played by Bria

Bria, your application was such a gift! We were so entertained by all of the details you’d included in Elena’s personality, and the extraordinary efforts you’ve made to ‘get to know’ her as a character — including going to the great lengths of identifying her Myers Briggs type, Moral Alignment, Enneagram, and even Divergent Faction(?!) and Hogwarts House! We loved the inclusion of Russian in your para sample, and your decision to write from a canon Wrath location. For these reasons and more, we’re delighted to officially welcome you to the family! 

Task 002 — Reflection

“i open the doors of my throat & pull out the barbed wire. from my unhinged ribs, i take away the shrapnel. nestled in my hipbones are all the words other people have said to me & all the words i’ve said to myself. i set them loose. the sky becomes flurries of ink-shaped falcons which hover for a moment before dissolving into the sky. day by day i will fill the empty spaces in me with clean rainwater, until i am a body swimming in my own resurrection.”

Gavriil Mussorgsky

Ah!! I’m very excited to hear that, Anon, and I’m sure Admin Lee will be over the moon when he comes back online! Elena and Sergei are honestly two characters that are very close to my heart, so I can’t wait to see either of them in the dash. Good luck with your application; we’re very excited to read it!
