     "…" there was this moment of pause as Hans tried to register what she had just said. One blink, then two, finished with a third right as he was about to say something… then he stopped, words stuck in his throat. Was she being serious, or was this some sort of spell she was under?

     Surely he was imagining things. Merida was expressing… affection for someone else?! Maybe she was playing with him, it was easy enough for her with their history of back and forth. 

     What if she was being genuine though? Her personality was beyond doubt enjoyable (and scary at times) and she was beautiful, in her own haphazardly graceful sort of way, but would he be able to accept her affections even then? Hans Westergard was a man unaccustomed to sincerity in a relationship, though he had gotten better being away from home it seems.

And yet there was just something about the dynamic of their relationship that perhaps enticed her. It didn’t have to be a commitment- it could just be to test the waters. Just something simple. Something to at least justify why she was so comfortable around him, even when they were bickering. 

”Pretending it wos genuine," Merida started, shifting her weight from one foot to the other. "Then I’d…be will’ tae try it, aye. Nothin’ set in stone, but…" She gave a bit of a shrug, still trying to maintain her upper hand on the situation.

It would be easy to come up with an excuse. Their friendship would remain in tact without any sticky business, and she could brush it off as wanting to avoid any of the sons from the other clans. 

However, she'd let him chose the answer, she decided. Letting herself give a laugh, she raised a playful eyebrow and folded her arms over her chest, cocking one him to the side. 

            "Wot? Ye don't believe it was genuine? Wot would ye prefer I say?" 

There’s no easy way to bringing this up, but this post is to inform you all that Bert, Merida, and Mary will be leaving Creative Disney Roleplay as moderators. 

We would like you to know that the decision was PERSONAL and does not reflect our feelings towards this group or the members personally. The fact of the matter is that we are three mods who have been increasingly busy with our personal lives which unfortunately has meant that our activity as moderators has taken the back burner. 

Instead of dragging out our time here, doing a poor job, and not being as active as we once were, we’ve decided to offer 2-3 people an opportunity to take over in our place.

The new moderators, should any apply, would have complete control over the group to do with as they please. The new moderators would be able to write new rules, keep or get rid of the audition process, and make the group entirely their own if they so choose to.

The new moderators must be people who, during their time here, have proven to us that they are responsible, mature people who will give the group the attention it needs. Even though we’re leaving as mods, we’ve put an endless amount of effort and care in to the group and would hate to see it in the hands of someone who doesn’t know what they’re doing. 

If you are interested in becoming one of the two new moderators for Creative Disney Roleplay, please fill out the below application and submit it to the group. You must be a member of CDRP to submit an application!

Name: 

Roleplay Experience: (If you’ve modded a group before, now’s a good time to mention it, as well as that group’s success. Note that just because you mod a group now doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll be more likely to be picked; we’d like someone who has the time to commit to the group. Also if the group you modded previously is shut down, please say why.)

Time Zone + Availability: 

Your experience with CDRP:

What do you think it means to be a mod? What qualities do you think a good leader for any group, not just roleplay, needs to have?:

Why you want to be a mod for this group?:  

If your school / work / life in general is notorious for being very demanding and you know that RP is just a very casual hobby, please THINK before you submit an application! You know yourself better than anyone else does, so if you know that the time you would be able to commit is very limited, it might be better if you remain a member, or go independent. 

In the event that we receive no applications, or if we don’t want to pass the group over to the apps we do receive, we will dissolve the group and the remaining members will be free to create a group of their own design, or none at all. 

If you’re putting in an application to become a new moderator, you have until Friday, January 30th to submit it.

All roles as of right now are open — if you want to remain a part of Creative Disney through the transition, please send in an ask saying that you wish to keep your spot. This is done so that anyone who wants to leave can leave wordlessly. All asks must be sent by Saturday, January 31st.

Again, please know in your heart that this was by no means an easy decision to make - but we truly believe that this is the best decision for the group, for the members, and for ourselves as mods. We believe that in our current positions, and knowing where we are going in our personal lives, that it would not have been responsible of us to stay as mods when we couldn’t give it our all. And us leaving doesn’t negate the fact that we had wonderful times and we met so many great people! We’ll say it again and again that all of you were absolute dreams to work with, and we hope that we can all stay in touch even though things are changing around here. This was a very very happy time for us but its just time for us to move on to other things, and it does not mean that we don’t love each and every one of you any less. 

Thank you all very much for your kindness and your patience, and of course, for your wonderful ability to tell stories and to bring your chraracters to life, which is what brought us together in the first place - but it was companionship that made us stick. Please keep these qualities during this strange change, and please continue to express your patience and understanding. This wasn’t an easy decision to make but we trust all of you to remain mature about things, and that two of you are going to make wonderful mods. Thank you again, it was a fantastic run!

Thank you.  So much.  For all the time, and effort and dedication you have put into this group. You have brought us all together and we can never repay you for that.  We so appreciate everything you’ve done for us, and that you’ve given so much of your time to this group.  

Thank you.  We love you.

Like mother, like daughter {x}

Anna bobbed her head in a nod.  ”Sounds like a plan to me,” she agreed.  Her nose scrunched up as she thought of something she hadn’t considered yet.  Elsa.  She was probably wondering where Anna was, and confused as to where her guest was.

Well, that was one royal she'd made friends with; she was off to a good start, right?
