BOOK PEOPLE THINGY
Chatterbox: Inkwell
BOOK PEOPLE THINGY
BOOK PEOPLE THINGY RP!!!!!
Ok, I found this idea in the Idea Deposit and really want to use it.
Basically we are normal people who happen to be named after book charries. We all love our names and the books we are named after (someone can hate it if they want, but not everyone), but one day start acting really weird. It's like our namesakes have taken over our minds! It starts out ok, but when people start dating random people who happen to be their namesake's lover things get messy. The only one with his/her own mind is a foster kid who doesn't know their name. Some of the kids really want their own minds back, so they ask this kid for help.
Here's the sheet!
Name:
Age:(11-16 only please!)
Personality before Take Over:
Personality after take Over:
Appearance:
You can keep whatever powers you namesake has if you want, and random falling in love with namesake's bfriend/gfriend encouraged!
You can have 2 charries if you want, but no more than 8 total. I will post mine soon, but I call Annabeth and Percy!
(December 21, 2015 - 4:40 pm)
Can I join or is it too late?
(December 25, 2015 - 11:09 pm)
@Balletandbow- I would like to change my charries to a more popular book. Is that ok? If so, here are the sheets.
Name: Leo Valdez
Age: 15
Personality before take over: Kind of quiet, likes people wel enough, but is too shy to go up and talk to any of them. He more enjoys being by himslef and working on projects that he's making. He's not very good at making things, but he likes to do it anyway.
Personality after take over: Leo becomes WAY more sarcastic and mischevious, and becomes a HUGE prankster. He starts becoming better at working on things. (I'm planning to have him take one of his projects that he was making at start turning it into Festus)
Appearance: He has choppy dirty blonde hair, really lean and strong, has brown eyes. After the take over, it will just like magically turn brown and curly or something. He typically wears ripped jeans and hoodies and/or t shirts. LOVES converse shoes.
Name: Calypso
Age: 15
Personaltiy berfore take over: is one of those "I hate everything" teenagers. Is very dark and brooding, and is easily angered. She is very introverted and does NOT like to talk to people. Now there is one exception. She absolutely ADORES her little brother. (I'm not making him into a charrie, but he will be named after Jason Grace)
personality after take over: SHe becomes very kind and compassionate.
appearance: has long golden hair, bright blue eyes. She's really pretty, but she typically wears dark clothes and a load of makeup and a scowl on her face. After the take over she starts liking long flowy white dresses and golden sandles.
Thanks so much! =)

Regina, if you want to be the foster kid, sure! Go ahead and give him/her a nickname so we know who he/she is.
(December 27, 2015 - 8:27 pm)
@balletandbow, i think Buggy expressed an interest in being the foster kid.
@Buggy, if you want to be the foster kid go ahead.
If Buggy doesnt want to then I will; if Buggy does is there still room for me to make a different charrie?
(December 28, 2015 - 6:50 pm)
If no one joins in the next couple days to be the foster kid, I'm gonna go ahead and start the RP with a little twist in the plot so we don't need the kid.
(December 30, 2015 - 9:36 am)
I will be the foster kid!
Name: She does not know her name but everyone calls her Alene. (In Danish "Alene" means "alone", pronounced like Ah-leh-nu.)
Age (11-16 only please!: 11
Personality before Take Over: She is a little bit shy and does not have many friends so she can usually be found alone in a tree or a deserted park, she gets made fun of because she does not have a name, after you get to know her you can find she is actually a very funny, fun loving, and friendly person.
Personality after take Over: same as above
Appearance: skinny, long straight brown hair in braided pigtails, short for her age, big round light blue eyes,
(December 31, 2015 - 12:48 pm)
Thanks Regina! I will post a bit to kick us off in the next couple days. Just to make this more fun and akward for our charries, the town (Still need a name!) will be in a different time zone than where the namesake's books are set, so for a few hours each day we have our normal brains back.
(December 31, 2015 - 3:58 pm)
I decided that DieBucher (German for book) is a very small town, so there is only one school that everybody goes to. Here we goooo!!!!!!!
Annabeth~
I walk down the halls of The DieBucher School, trying to look like a bad target. Calypso had been extra pushy this week, and she was fond of stealing more than just lunches. Why couldn't I be in a different math class? Why had I done so well in the test that determined my class for the year? It was much easier to study when Jackson and his girlfriend wren't screwing off the whole class with Jackson's football team. How all of those jerks had even gotten into Honors Math I had no clue.
Sighing, I trudged through the halls ignoring everyone but my friends Iris and Emma.(Is this ok guys?) They knew my classes, and shot me sympathetic and reassuring glances as I passed outside their classroom. Thinking I was safe to look around, I peered over my shoulder to see a boy with choppy blonde hair following my closely.
"Hi Leo."
"Oh! Um... Hi?"
That was all you could really get from him. No matter his shy personality, I loved working with him. He was brilliant! Not so persistant at times, but really good at coming up with ideas for projects. Steeling myself for another class full of Jackson's sillyness, me and Leo slipped through the classroom door.
Percy~
Here we go again, I thought as Annabeth and Leo came in. Another class of Gabbi's annoyingness. I knew that I didn't really help matters by letting my guys egg her on, but math was hard! It took all my brainpower to understand the equations, so I couldn't very well control my "girlfriend" at the same time! I was very seriously considering just telling her the truth, that she wasn't my girlfriend, very, very soon.
As Mr. Gabranski took attendance, (Seriously dude?) Gabbi started up again.
"Ooo! Look Percy! Don't these look cute?" she asked, shoving her phone in my face.
"Mmhm. Present!"
Like I said, he was really old-fashioned. Gabbi kept shoving her phone at me for the rest of the class, making really hard to consentrate on the problems. Finally, the bell rang. Just as we were all about to leave, the lights went off. Gabbi screamed, and Mr. Gabranski found a flashlight somewhere, but my vision was growing blurry. The last thing I saw was Annabeth and Leo falling to the ground before everything went dark.
I woke to the sound of Gabbi's continued screams.
"Percy? Percy? PERCY!!!!!"
"What? What?" I groaned, bliking open my eyes to see her teary, makeup-streaked face.
"ThelightswentoutandyoujustfelloverandIwassoscaredandthen..."
"Slow down!" I commanded, sitting up. Why was I lying on the floor? Why did my head hurt that much? I looked around to see Annabeth and Leo lying on the floor also. Slowly, I stood and helped Annabeth up.
"Are you ok?" I asked.
"I'm fine, but Leo hasn't woken up yet."
I squatted down and started slapping Leo's face. "Hello? Leo... Wake up bud!"
He jerked awake, and then hit his head on the floor and knocked himself out.
"Ok. Yes, they'll be thre right away," Mr. Gabranski said, closing his phone. "That was the nurse," he continued. "She wants to see all the students who fell in her office. Now."
I woke up Leo again, this time sheilding his head with my hand, and left the classroom. We stopped outside the bathrooms.
"Geez, I must have a giant bump on the back of my head for it to hurt that much," I said
"Here let me see."
I turned around, and Annabeth inspected the back of my head. "Nope. Nothing. Could you check mine?"
"Nothing? Weird. Hang on I'll check in the bathroom."
I head over to the line of sinks and crane my head around to peer at the back of my head. Nothing. That is so weird. My head feels like it's split in half!
I turn to leave the bathroom, but a quick flash of green catches my eye. What is that? Turning back to the mirror, I stare, gawking, at my own face. My eyes are slowly turning green.

Also, before the takeover, Emma is super outgoing, and after she becomes really introverted.
Emma-
I stroll down the hall, and into advanced English. As I open the door, I see Annabeth stick her tongue out at me from accross the hall and mouth, "BLEH!" Poor her, she's in that class with a bunch of really annoying kids. Not that I've got it better. Somehow, Becca Chadwic managed to get into advanced English, and she share's a desk with me. She keeps pointing at me, and snickering with her friends. She is SO annoying.
I slip into my seat, and pull out my notebook to do the bellwork writing. Todays topic? My Favorite Things. I chew the back of my pencil and begin to think. I like... Public speaking, school, friends. I like math a lot. I love to read. I like... what else now? Acting, a little, safety patroll, speaches, debate... I like... WHOA! Suddenly everything goes black, and I feel my legs buckle underneath me.
A few minutes later, I wake up with Becca pouring water over my face.
"Wake up, you doofus!"
I want to give her a suitable answer, but suddenly I find that I'm too shy to. What? When has that ever happened? I try to squeeze the words out of my mouth, but, to my surprise, I can't. Suddenly, the PA crackles on.
"The nurse wants to see everyone who fell in her office. NOW!"
As I stumble towards the office, still a little unstable on my feet, I play with a strand of hair on my forehead. Suddenly I realise that it's curly. I frown, but keep walking towards the office. I'll look in the mirror later. It's probably just a mistake.
(January 3, 2016 - 12:14 am)
Here's a little thing about a new character. Unless someone claims her (cough cough Buggy cough cough), she can just be a side character. I'll let whoever claims her take care of the before part. I'll just do the book character.
Name: Opaline Trudeau
Age: 13
Personality after: Well, depends on which book. She's either shy, or malicious. Tender, or cold. It depends.
Appearance: (mostly after) a short brown Bob held with barrettes, brown eyes, wears button ups.
Iris~
I'm just sitting in English with one of my friends, Opaline, when my head begins to hurt. I sway a bit, my vision getting blurry. I see the outline of Opal collapse on the ground, and I follow.
Head throbbing, I open my eyes. Opal and I are lying on the floor, students surrounding us. Suddenly, the intercom crackles.
"Everyone that fell report to the nurses office."
Quick question. Do they have powers that their book counterparts do?
(January 3, 2016 - 3:06 am)
I'm so sorry, and it's probably too late to join, but I will try because I am overly stubborn, and for Luna's sake, I AM HERMIONE GRANGEFR!!!!!!
Name: Hermione Granger
Age: 11
Personality berfore The Take-Over: Shy, smart, pessimistic, quiet.
Personality after The Take-Over: Friendly, smart, optimistic, smart.
Appearance: Like Hermione.
Other: None
(January 3, 2016 - 8:47 am)
Ok, Opaline can stay on as a side charrie, but Hermione I'm really sorry, we just can't fit you in!
(January 3, 2016 - 4:21 pm)
Leo~
When I wake up, I see Annabeth standing over me, asking if I'm alright.
"I'm fine," I manage to mutter before I passed out again. Annabeth quickly woke me up. Then a voice crackled in over the intercom.
"All students who fell over come to the nurse immediately!" There is some murmuring among the students, all of whom collapsed. Annabeth helps me up and we walk along the hallway with Percy Jackson. He looks slightly confused, as if he can't remember something important. As we walk, my head starts to throb. Percy rubs the back of his head, then asks Annabeth if he has a knot on his head.
"Nope. Nothing," she says. Percy head into the bathroom to look in the mirror, just for extra assurance. Annabeth insists that we wait outside for him. That's kinda weird, as three minutes ago she hated Percy. While we are standing, waiting for Percy, Calypso shoves past us on her way to the nurses office. She is hunched over, stomping, her dark blonde hair pulled into a messy ponytail. She was wearing a dark hoodie, black jeans and combat boots. Her lipstick was slightly smeard, and her mascara made a dark circle around her eyes. I had always thought that she was kind of pretty, even though she was the school bully and hated everyone. Lost in thought, I didn't notice Percy coming out of the restroom. I hear the door slam shut, and snap out of it. Percy still looks confused, if not more so. WHen I look closer at him, I notice that his eyes are... green? But, his eyes used to be blue. Maybe I'm seeing things, so I blink a couple of times and shake my head. A brown, curly lock of hair falls in my face, But, my hair is blonde, and not curly. I MUST be seeing things. I really need to go to the nurse's office.
Calypso~
I storm past everyone on my way to the nurse. I need to be there first, or there will be a line. Why can't everyone just get out of my way!? As I pass the restrooms, I see Percy, Annabeth and... Leo. Why am I noticing him? I've never once spoken to that runt. But, as I walk past Leo and his friends, and see him looking confused, I smile a little bit. It hurts my face; I don't smile very often. I can't even remember the last time I did. But why did LEO VALDEZ, of all people, make me smile? I shake off this weird new feeling and finish my trip to the nurse's office.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
@balletandbow- Did I control your charries too much? If I did, please say so and I will change it. =)
(January 3, 2016 - 4:32 pm)
No Leafmist, that was great!
(January 4, 2016 - 3:14 pm)
THIS IS REALLY FUN!!!!! The one thing I want to say is could Alene be like 13? I know I said 11-16 but everyone else is at least 13...
Annabeth~
The visit to the nurse's office goes well enough. She does her stuff and tells us that we all need to drink extra water and get enough rest. Then, we are dismissed. Class is done for the day, so I head twards the doors.
"Hey, Annabeth!" Percy calls, running up beside me. "Can I ask you something?"
"Um... Sure?"
"Ok, cause this is gonna sound really weird. What color are my eyes?"
I turn away, exasperated, "Blue. Duh."
"Are you sure? Cause I thought that I saw them-"
"Yes!" I almost shout. "Your eyes are blue! Just like any other day..." My voice trails off as I turn back around and stare at his face.
"What? What is it?" Percy asks, almost fearfully.
"Green." I say breathlessly. "Your eyes are green."
"Oh no. What the heck is going on?" Percy whisper-screams as he drags me outside. "Seriously, what is going on?!?! My eyes are green, which they are NOT supposed to be, Leo's hair is all crazy and brown, Iris's hair has purple highlights, and now your hair and eyes are changing color right now in front of my face-"
"Calm down!" I command. "Wait, did you just say that MY hair is changing?"
"Um.. Yes? Look down and tell me I'm crazy. Please."
Slightly doubting Percy's sanity as well as his eyes, (They somehow just changed colors in an hour after all!) I look down and scream.
"MY HAIR IS BLONDE! MY HAIR IS BLONDE! AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!"
Percy~
"Ssshhhhh! Be quiet for a sec will ya?" I hiss in Annabeth's ear. She's been hyperventilating for the last ten minutes ever since she saw her hair. Of course, right after the initial shock of it, she just had to go the the bathroom to check her eyes. More screams confirmed that her eyes were indeed turning grey, prompting me to stelthily sneak into the girl's bathroom to shut her up. Now we're standing in a stall with be on top of the toilet to hide my very boy-ish shoes while covering Annabeth's mouth with my hand. I really hope that girls don't take that long to fix their makeup.
Finally, whatever girl who needed a pit-stop leaves, and I jump down off the toilet and take down may hand.
"Are you better now?" Annabeth nods, then shakes her head. One more scream splits through the air, and I clutch my ears as everything goes dark.
"Percy? Percy!" Great. I'm on the floor again, with Annabeth beside me.
"What just happened?" I ask groggily, sitting up.
"I don't know.. I just screamed and then we were on the floor..."
I try to stand but my knees buckle ans I fall again. "What is wrong with my head? I feel like I have two brains stuffed in here or something."
"I don't know but we better get out of here! I can hear teachers coming this way!"
So, we slip out of the bathroom and head our separate ways.
