a place known fondly to winter travelers as a family-friendly holiday destination.
little do the tourists know, there's a handful of people that call brighton home -- and try as they might, they just can't seem to avoid returning home.
OK SO I was gonna wait until the one year to post this but I’m v v v impatient and I j wanted to show you all this thingy thing that I made.
Brighton is the longest roleplay I’ve been in for a long while and I’m so grateful for Ava, Gorgeous, and everyone that made all of this possible. Through Brighton, I’ve gotten to know so many people and meet some of my closest friends. This roleplay has been a real trip for me and I’m just glad that I was able to have been a part of it. The time that I spent here will never be forgotten and hopefully we’ll all get to look back at Brighton positively and cherish the memories we made together. I don’t know what else to say so I just hope ya’ll like the video and… yeah. :)

First of all, I would like to give some context for this quote from the legendary ‘Golden Girls’ starring Betty White, Bea Arthur, Estelle Getty, and Rue McClanahan (may the last three rest in peace, and may the first be with us always). This was the final line of the final episode in the entire series and, honestly, I’ve been planning to use it either way around. I do feel it’s more applicable in a post like this, however.
I know that myself or Amber has contacted all of you beforehand in forewarning that this has become a very real possibility, and I believe you all know what ‘this’ is. There is so much I want to say about this, about how much this roleplay has meant to me, about how much each and every single one of you have meant to me. I can’t fill this entire post up with that, however – if you want nothing more than that, you should just click “read more”.
I do want to thank this roleplay in general in this post. This roleplay has given me so many senses that I hadn’t had enough of before. I’ve got a better sense of responsibility, a better sense of purpose, a better sense of worth. That’s not just because of myself – it’s because of every single one of you. Essentially, all I’ve done is either post long personal anecdotes, updates on Scooby-Doo, or terrible references. I may have been the face, but you guys have been the backbone.
That being said, I wish I could’ve done more as the face. You guys never failed me as the backbone, and I am so sorry that the face has failed you. I never wanted to let you guys down and I am so sorry about this. I hoped to make it to a year – just a few days more – more than anything, post in celebration, as opposed to post in an event that deserves nothing more than somber speech. I don’t think I will ever meet a group I love as much as this group, and I don’t think I will ever have paralleled experiences in any other group as I’ve had here. This has genuinely been one of the greatest experiences I’ve ever gotten the chance to encounter.
Although that’s been said, I would still like to offer a second chance, if that makes any sense. Amber and I have been talking about the possibility of creating a new roleplay so we could, if nothing else, continue roleplaying as a group. We came up with a few ideas – some old-school with great room for character development, some that’d be slightly more plot-driven. If you’d be interested in joining a new group with some (hopefully the majority [if not all]) other Brighton members, feel free to vote here (which we’ll probably cut off with the results of either on November 17th or once we get all of y’all’s votes [as judging by the count]). I believe we have each of your contact information, and, because I’d really like for this post to be the conclusion to the story that became of Brighton, we’ll contact you with the results. (That was a really nice run-on sentence.)
I love you all so much. I love this roleplay so much. That love will never cease. You truly are all angels. I could not have been gifted with a greater experience or a greater group of people than what I received, past and present.
I love you.

ok here comes the informal typing and rambling aight but im still gonna keep it in small text jic (unless it ends up rly hard 2 read once i post this ok) but ok first of all i just wanna thank all of y’all individually sorta like i did in the sixth month post only like......... it’s been way more than six months now. going from the bottom of the follow list 2 the top:
@ohmax/gel: first of all i want 2 say thank u for helping out w tough decisions in this rp ever since u joined p much??? like helping w things 2 keep the morale up and ideas for tasks or events and basically being a ghost-mod. ok but in addition thnks fr th mmrs. i am still v glad u introduced me 2 the miracle that is ‘gimme pizza’ i dont kno what i woulda done w/out it and u were p much my dictionary when it came 2 kpop slang. i’ve had the pleasure of knowing u since december and that’s p insane 2 think abt like that’s eleven months right there and it’s hard 2 think of one moment that i didnt like w u??? im rly rly glad we met and as yung bean and yung ice, thus making the duo yungyung, we still gotta get in contact w the yingyang twins. ur the best angie :)
@nvmkai/amber: ok so first comes the obvious: thank u sm for helping out on the main for the past few months and for continuing to work w me as we try 2 figure out where 2 go next. ok but also thank u sm for j being such a joy 2 talk 2 like we’ve rly only been actively talking 2 each other as of late (like u kno asides from chats and the likes and “hey will u be a mod” [definitely verbatim]) and i’ve always known that you’re a rly rly amazing person so it’s been rly rly nice 2 actually be able 2 talk 2 u more lately ja feel??? also im still honored that u thought of me when u saw steven universe merch.
@hansolseok/aamna: tbh idk what would’ve happened if hansol seok had never come 2 life we wouldn’t have such great quotes and memories. im still always gonna regard him as the character who’s terrified of spiders no matter how overtly sexual he can get??? and u are such an awesome person 2 kno ok i am so glad we met and i am so glad that i’ve gotten the chance 2 talk 2 u and honestly learn about how much of a nerd u are. ur a rly rly great person ok and im so glad i now have a life w a sprinkled donut in it.
@wesley-ryu/alex: ok i rmr when we first started tryna plot i was like “...wesley... ivy... i... got nthn” and then u posted that text thread and suddenly they had a whole ‘misery’ subplot (bc u kno that’s what it clearly was there was clearly actual events from ‘misery’ going on in the bg). u are such a nice person and u have always made me feel so welcomed and im rly glad i got 2 kno u u are like a puzzle piece u kno like it always SEEMS like there’s smth... missing... then u realize u placed the final puzzle piece somewhere else and u put it in and it’s beautiful!!! u are that puzzle piece. to sum it up: -annie wilkes voice- im ur biggest fan!!! (i named my pig ‘wesley’) -end voice-
@stopchaewon/charlie: again first comes the obvious: thank u too for helping out on the main for a rly good while and for keeping it up when i went all paper planes live fast die young. in addition 2 that i would like 2 say i often think abt how essentially the first thing we ever talked abt that was unrelated 2 our characters was angel haze and i think that’s amazing. we have good music taste. u have been v understanding and like... u literally didnt even message me once abt my absence until the 9th like how did u wait so long ur patience is wHOA. im rly honored i got the chance 2 meet u and 2 kno u and 2 overall just??? u kno be friends w u, charlie/charles/chuck/charlie brown
@seo-mina/dionne: i’m gonna try 2 do the majority of urs in a way u will be able to understand u kno in ur language: when i look at you i see the 7 things i love abt u. i adore you and as much as i would like 2 start all over that’s all just part of the climb. but life’s what you make it and still i wanna know you. no matter what happens i hope u will always get the best of both worlds. (no but rly ur such a joy 2 kno and thank u sm for tryna help keep the dash active these past few days and for suggesting such an awesome event ok u have been a big help and i love u a lot.)
@parkofsawyer/tabitha: i am so so sorry i never got the chance 2 kno u that well and i rly hope 2 change that ok bc from what i’ve seen and heard u seem so nice and so just??? overall great??? and im rly sorry i wasnt on much after u joined i would RLY like 2 get 2 kno u better and lemme just say sawyer was such an awesome character.
@park-taemin/kaya: it is so amazing that u have stuck w us since like.... the fourth or fifth day??? i am so happy that we’ve been hosting tae for that long like even if u have had 2 take a break between which is hella understandable im just rly glad we got 2 see tae’s development u kno??? and im rly glad we got 2 meet in general. knowing u has been so amazing and the few times i got 2 write with u (i still think it’s funny that we were both in this rp for... a v v v long time and ivy and tae only interacted once maybe) were awesome ok. thank u for sticking w us <3 (u should also be proud – u started the kpop revolution)
honestly im just rly thankful for brighton in general. i never would’ve met any of you without it.
there have been some amazing people who’ve Fallen™ that i will never forget but u gotta live and u gotta learn. im sure u guys have had some similar experiences here and u kno probs in other rps but then there are the amazing ppl who March On™ and look like they’ll be w u until the end. i am so happy yall were in those few. every single one of u helped give me a sense of _____.
i swore i would never shut down brighton until it was basically begging 2 be killed and i rly rly rly rly hope that i didnt let anyone down i am so sorry we had 2 end so soon. we were all so close 2 make it to that one year mark!!! in any case thank u guys so much each and every single one of u and pls kno that i love all of u. i love all of u a whole lot.
i still rmr how pumped avery and i were 2 first open brighton and tbh now avery seems like such a distant memory for brighton. with EVERY SINGLE LINEUP brighton has gone thru w mods like.... man idek if i can keep track w all of the amazing ppl who have helped me out. whether theyre still here or not it doesnt matter – each left for a reason and i loved working with them all. and i still love working w the mod lineup rn.
and this is not the end of the multiple lineups lmao. as u have probably been hearing a lot lately: “DONT FORGET TO VOTE!”
honestly i could go on for pages and pages in mla format double-spaced font-size 12 times new roman 1-inch margins abt how much yall meant and still mean 2 me and how much this rp meant and still means 2 me. im not kidding when i say that this is my proudest accomplishment im not over-exaggerating. legit before this whenever i was asked what my proudest accomplishment was i was like “....well.... i’m a fast typist.... i beat everyone including the teacher in elementary and middle school...... and when i took two ct electives in high-school i was always the fastest in my class..... im like sonic w a keyboard.” but now i can say this. even if it burned out a lil before i was hoping (fifteen more days man) it still means so much to me and part of why is bc u guys all chose it. u guys looked at the main back when it still had that theme it had for ten years and yall were like “....sounds solid.” and yall joined. and yall stuck around. and yall developed ur characters and i got 2 watch and yall got 2 meet each other and meet other players even if they’re no longer here or in our lives.
this rp has shown me that rps are more than just “ok so this is my character this is how they talk they say ‘legit’ a lot (subtweet) and they grew up bc that happens and etc etc etc” yall have shown me that rps can be abt so much more. ooc i’ve been closer 2 the ppl in this group than i ever have been in groups before including groups i’ve modded.
I think her twitter account was taken down for one reason or another, but I do have a fun fact! For whoever remembers the Rainbow Sponge Lady, let it be known I once found her on Twitter and made the decision to follow her. She followed me back. I proceeded to tell my friend, another avid friend of Dee Gruenig, and she followed her. Dee followed her back. My friend then told her friend, and Dee followed him back. What a blessing. You know what else would be a blessing? Your app.
My dog is an avid fan of getting into the trash, so my mom decided it was a good idea to get a child safety lock. I’ve got a feeling the dog’ll be able to get around it. You know what’s a real good idea? Applying.

I just spent four minutes watching a compilation of all the musical.ly videos the ‘Hey! You there!’ girl has done. I must say, I don’t regret a second of it. You know what else I wouldn’t regret a second of? Plotting with you – alas, I can only do so if you apply.
I’m gonna be real: I have no clue why Greensboro has Greene Street and Cornwallis Drive. I mean, I actually do – mark of historic events and all – but neither of them were actual winners? I mean, Nathanael Greene lost the battle, and Cornwallis was not only fighting for the Redcoats, but also ended up being one of the first to surrender. Full of winners, we are. You know who’s a true winner? You. You should check us out.
My dog is desperately attempting to get out of her turtle costume at this moment in time. She looks so great in it though – she’d make a perfect Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle. You know what else would look great? An app from you.
I just pulled up a list of bad Halloween jokes – what does a ghost not need? A living room! Amazing. You know what else would be amazing? You know what’d be a true treat on this Halloween? An app from you.

Please enter with your character name and their FC in parentheses! (i.e. Paul Blart, Mall Cop (Kevin James).) Please do your best to interact with everyone and, if you would like to, come up with a plot for the event in a private chat. You can start RP’ing with others when you feel it’s fit!
I am truly the Queen of Naps. You should help me become the Queen of Apps and check out Brighton. We have plenty of fcs open and we’d love to welcome you into our family.
Sorry for the delayed post on when the event will be. It took Dionne and I a while to coordinate seeing as our schedules aren’t perfectly aligned, but the event will take place on October 29th and start at 12:00AM GMT+2, 6:00PM EST, and 3:00 PST (so long and so forth and what have you). The event will last until all players have chosen to exit out of the chatzy. If you’ve never worked in chatzy before, feel free to message the main and I’ll make a lil tutorial like I did eight months ago for neatchat! The details about the event are below:

“The only thing fresher than our guacamole is ___” – A Moe’s Cup
Fill in the blank with ‘Brighton’ because, as I said in the ten month anniversary post, we’re fresh. Fresh is what we do. We’re the only thing fresher than Moe’s’ guacamole. I’ve been thinking about this post for a while and, in a lowkey ironic twist, I’ve been thinking about how I don’t want to say much. First of all, I am so glad we’ve been around for eleven months! Second, if we get to the next, I’m gonna say so much (which is why I’m sparing you right now).
Good afternoon, tag lurkers! Might I interest you in a roleplay set in a cute winter resort town? Come check out Brighton, which flourishes in wintertime, and the locals have to deal with tourists bulking up the lines in their favorite coffee shops.
