Ok LOVE the character, he sounds like someone i would definitely hang out with lol--only thing is we already have a character named Ash? And as much as i love that name it would be confusing to have two. Soooo could u possibly change it? Tyyyy!!

I'm going to unreserve, sorry. I don't have the mental space for another rp right now.

No prob! 

Also I might have to put this rp on hold if we don't get many more people, because right now we have like three characters since a couple people couldnt do it. Which might be fine but it would be more fun to have more people you know?

“It could be worse.” I say, although even I don’t believe my words. My older sister looks incredulous.

“What could possibly be worse than our entire world being stripped of love and possibly–sorry, no, likely–dying?” she yells, her breath hot on my face. I stop to consider this. 

“I don’t know. No pizza?” Sabrina smacks my arm. “What? I would kill for a slice right about now.” She rolls her eyes.

“Kat-Cornelia Olivia Chastain. Think about how far away the other side of the Earth is. Your soulmate could be living in, I don’t know, Timbuktu? Do you think in one month, you are going to be able to travel to every habitable spot on this planet?” 

“Well, no. But think about it. If they could be in Timbuktu, they could also be across the street.” I say nonchalantly. She groans. 

“You’re hopeless.”

Actually, I’m quite terrified. But I find the best way to deal with fear is to not panic. Or, at the very least, not let anyone know you’re panicking.

“Also, think about it! How are you supposed to know you’ve found your soulmate! Do you just keep on looking for a month and then find out if you’re dying or not at the end?!?!” She’s totally freaking out. 

She lets out a huge breath. “Okay, Kat. You’re coming with me.” Sabrina tugs me towards the door, suddenly incredibly determined. 

“What–where are we going?” Another massive eye-roll. 

“To find our soulmates, of course.”

"As if the situation of the world couldn't get any worse," I groan. "I mean, come on! The world is already deteriorating with the environment/climate, and now we have to find our soulmate!? Who may as well be...I don't know, half way across the world!? And if we don't within one month, I repeat, one month, we'll be...exterminated! Which is just another word for killed, might I add," I say. 

I'm holding up my cell phone currently, face-timing my friend Emre after just hearing the news about the soulmate-finding, or whatever. I mean, I don't really mind finding a true love or soulmate one day, but on a time-limit...yeah, pretty much impossible.

"Actually, scratch what I said earlier," I say. "If all humans were exterminated, I bet the environment would be pretty happy."

"Now, isn't that kind of..." Emre scrunches up her face as she tries to think of a word. "I don't know, pessimistic? Dark?"

"The truth?" I suggest. I laughed a little, though it was fake.

"But don't you think then that...we should do something about this soulmate thing?" Emre reasons. "It's better than just standing here doing nothing. I mean, if we find our soulmates, then we aren't going to be exterminated!"

"And the environment can continue suffering," I finish, smiling. "Sounds solid. So...how are we going to go about doing this? Don't tell me we're just going to walk down the street and go talk to everyone we meet until we find someone who fits that soulmate criteria, whatever it is."

Emre smiles slowly. "Good idea. Let's do that!"

Daniel's POV

"Wait, WHAT?!! I have to find a soulmate within one MONTH?!!! You gotta be kiddin' me!" I exclaimed, as I stared at the message.

I had no problem gettin' girlfriends; it was KEEPIN' them that was the issue. "Your voice is too deep", "you look like your thirty years old", "you're addicted to your computer and not me", blah blah blah. All the girlfriends I had were too complainy, but a soulmate that didn't complain... sounded like a deal to me. But the question was how would I find my soulmate?! She could live on the other side of the WORLD!!

"Well, Daniel... might as well start lookin'." I said to myself, as I walked out of my house.
