Idea:

Your a bunch of friends that had come over to my house for Christmas dinner, and as we were sitting down to dinner in my dining room, the radio came on saying that the snow that has been falling steadily for the last hour or so, has now come on as the worse snow storm of the Century. There is a blizzard out there, and no one is advised to leave your houses, or where your at right now, even if you could.

I turn on the TV to get the latest pictures on the news, and see that all the roads were blocked now from the storm, and snow. I look out the window, and see that all the cars were buried in snow, and that it was snowing harder than it has ever done. I look at my guests and shake my head. "I have enough provisions for all of us to stay here for a long time, and a generator just in case the power goes out, but I'm afraid friends, that we are stuck here." He looked at his wife and nodded.

OOC:
Ok you get the idea for the start of the story, and I am looking for someone to play my wife, and also the guests at the party. We're snowbound in the storm, and we are all pretty close, so this can turn into one wild party after being stuck there for a long time.

My Character:

Martin DeSchutes
Age: 40
Height: 6'
Weight: 200
Hair: Red, with a bit of Grey in it.
Eyes: Blue

Martin is a succesful business man, and a bit of a outdoorsman.

what I am looking for is probably 6-8 Party guests, and my wife.

Post your character and what you think of this storm and what's going on. We will go with that. This is the Beginning of the thread.
 
Luri Deschutes
32
5'7
about 120 give or take
Brunette with a hint of blond.
green eyes.



Luri was the idea wife. Beautiful, smart charming all those things. She was also witty and could be cunning when the situation called for it. She had planned the party with no glitches in mind. However, when the snow started falling, she thought, well, fuck, a bad end to a perfect night.

As the evening wore on, the snow had also. Piling up several inches in a matter of hours, it wasnt stopping. She looked at her husband and back to the others. It was evident no one was leaving. Of course, they were prepared for the most unlikely of disasters. Martin was a devout follower of the be prepared motto.

"At least you will be in the company of good friends instead of total strangers. Besides, this will give us all a chance to catch up and get to know each other like never before" she said walking to where Martin stood. It would also give her a chance to explore a side of her no one knew. Not even Martin.



Hope this is okey
 
Brooke Hannigan
29
Athletic, petite body. She used to be a dancer before an ankle injury caused her to have to leave her dance company and pursue a degree in business.

Honey Blonde Hair, midway down back and wavy, brown expressive eyes, full lips.

Brooke works with Martin, a receptionist for his boss. She and he have a similar sense of humor and like a lot of the same movies and books which made them almost instant friends.

Brooke is recently divorced from an Army Seargent and came because Martin wanted her to meet a couple of his single friends at his dinner. He has no idea how much she actually is attracted to him, although she must admit the friends he said were charming are charming and attractive. Brooke is personable, friendly, funny, and quite lonely.
 
Martin

Martin wrapped an arm around Luri and smiled. "Ok, so this is what's going to happen tonight. We have rooms, but you might have to bunk up together in them." He gave a wink to his wife wondering what was going to happen here.

"Now those of you that are single, which is an interesting amount of people. I will let you decide who sleeps where." He looked over at Brooke and grinned.

OOC: Perfect you two, great start.
 
Darryl Wilson.
36yr old business associate of Martins
5-11, sandy hair and blue grey eyes.
Darryl`s wife was killed in an auto accident 2 years back. Has been invited to the party, to meet new people, and to make up the numbers.

~~~~

I realised when the snow set in, that I had been lucky to get here in time. The weather had now turned for the worse, and it looked like being a long night. But I was pleased that I came, I had known Darryl for a while now, since before Jenny died. We worked in the same building downtown. I was just hoping that I might make a good impression on the pther guests, female ones possibly, that would be the best scenario for me.
 
Martin

OOC: Welcome Blue, glad you signed on

IC: Martin was checking on everyone, making sure that they didn't need anything. When the lights flickered, he got up. "Ok, I will be back in a few minutes, if the power goes out, don't worry, I will have it back on in a minutes. Just going to start up the Generator." He then went down into the basement with a large flashlight, just in case it went out when he was on the stairs. As he was leaving, the power failed, and everyone was plunged into total darkness for two minutes.

(Now let's see what happens in the dark. Mwahahahahaa. just kidding, it will come back on.)
 
Ford Bollinger

Ford:

42 years old
5'10, 190 pounds
Dark brown hair, thinning on top
Dark brown eyes
Used to be a sales rep that called on Martin, but the work relationship became a friend relationship. When Ford moved on to another company he kept the friendship with Martin and Luri.

Taking another sip from his whiskey, Ford looks at the snow falling out the window. With a shrug, he turns back to the room, smiling at his wife (description to be filled in by one of your lovely ladies) then at Martin.

"Well Martin, if anyone could be prepared for this, I know it's you. From the way it's falling outside, I think we're going to be here for quite a while. Good thing nobody has to work tomorrow."
 
Martin

Martin smiled at Ford and chuckled. "Well Ford, that is so true, And if the weather is going to be any say in it, no one will be going to work for quite a while." He then looked at his friends and pulled out his cel phone, and made a couple of calls, and smiled. "Ok my friends, I just got off the phone with another friend of mine, that I keep on call for such emergencies. For those of you that might be worried about your kids at home with baby sitters or whatever, they will be fine." (Just thinking about that, so no one would be worried about something like that.)
 
Brooke smiled nervously at Darryl. "Have you ever been snowed in before? I once got stuck in the middle of the highway. That was a night. At least tonight we are safe and warm with friends." she said, making the small talk they had begun at dinner stretch.
 
"Only in my car Brooke, but the snow was never this bad, it looks like we may be here for a while, all night even. But I have no worries, Martin and Luri are great hosts, I am sure that they will look after us."

I spotted an empty couch in the hallway

"There is a seat over there Brooke, shall we sit down, and I will get us both a drink? What would you like?"

Snow or no snow, I was delighted now that I had been invited, for Brooke was beautiful intelligent, and very sexy indeed. I thought, as I awaited Brooke`s reply
 
Brooke smiled and shrugged, "Something sweet. Surprise me." she said, thinking it had been a long while since anyone had paid as much attention to her as Darryl had been this evening. She could do much worse than a guy like him, she figured as she watched him walk away.
 
"Something sweet. Surprise me." she said,

I ,oved to the bar, wondering exactly what I could get this delightful lady.
Then, a flash of inspiration, a quick word with marting, and I returned. handing Brooke her drink.

"Here you are Brooke, expecially prepared for you, Pink chmapagne, with a ripe srawberry in it."
 
leanna bollinger

leanna bollinger
39 short mahogany brown hair
5'5
of a more voluptous build ( large breasts and hips)
had grown quite close to luri over the term of ford's and martin's friendship

i see ford smiling at me, i grin back - he knows how i love snow especially at christmas
"yes hunni , it's going to be a white christmas this year for definite. getting snowed in for a few days might be good for all of us. we don't get together as often as we should. this will give us the chance to really bond as friends. are there many more to arrive?"

Brooke smiled as she accepted the drink, "Good choice, and I love berries." she said, clinking glasses with him before taking a sip of her champagne. "It's very nice." she murmured after taking a taste. As he sat she crossed her legs and turned toward him, "So, Darryl, how long have you been a friend of Martin's?" she asked, her ankle caressing her own leg in her unconscious body language for 'I am interested in you'. Her ex, Mike had always said she was a flirt even when she wasn't trying to be but she never saw in her own body language what he said other men could read loud and clear.
 
Martin

Martin smiled at the Leanna and answered. "Actually everyone is here, so this is going to be interesting." He had just come back from the basement and starting the generator up. "Well we have enough power and stuff to last us for about a week before we run out of fuel for the generator. If we go that long, we will rough it, use body heat for warmth." He pulled Luri to his side and smiled at her with a wink at his other friends.
 
The body heat comment made Brooke blush as Darryl reguarded her witha smile. She sipped her drink quietly for the moment to recover.

OOC - I'd love to, but the 9am slavedrivers told me to get my weary eyes all the way to liverpool tommorrow. Maybe later.
 
"So, Darryl, how long have you been a friend of Martin's?"

" about five years now I guess Brooke, it was long before my wife died, I know that."


I glanced admiringly at her legs, legs that she was showing off to me, that was obvious. Was it an invitation? I wasnt sure, but I was not going anywhere else, that was certain.
I was about to say more, when I heard the music start, soft and low, music to dance close to.
I smiled at Brooke.

"Would you care to dance with me fair maiden?"
 
Gosh, how long has it been since you've been dancing? she asked herself as she nodded in a greement, putting her drink on a side table and taking Darryl's offered hand to help her up and lead her to the 'dancefloor' the center of the lounge. "You're a widower, that's right, Martin mentioned that. I'm sorry to hear that. It must have been hard losing your wife so young." she replied.
 
I held Brooke in my arms, not too tightly, looking at her beautiful face and eyes. our movements almost seeming liquid, as we blended together.

"You're a widower, that's right, Martin mentioned that. I'm sorry to hear that. It must have been hard losing your wife so young."

"Yes Brooke, it was, but you learn to live with it, you have to. Modern life necessitates that you move on, you have to. And of course, you always have the memories, they are eternal."


We were silent for a while then, just smiling. The song finished, to be replaced by John Lennon, playing the opening bars to Imagine.

"Brooke, I have to say that Iadore this tune, it, and the words, are so beautiful. Dont sit down yet, please?"

I pulled her a little closer, my head alongside hers, humming the tune softly as we danced. Feeling her warm soft body against mine, our legs rubbing together occasionally. Knowing that this would bring a reaction in my pants. I did not care though, this was so unexpected, and so wonderful. If it happened, then so be it. She would either slap my face, or respond.
 
Ford Bollinger

Ford walks over to Leanna, slipping his arm around her waist, joining her, along with Martin and Luri.

"I still cannot believe how you wind up being prepared for everything Martin. I certainly wasn't expecting a snowstorm tonight, yet here you are with food, drinks and a generator. Though I like the idea of using body heat to keep warm, don't you Luri?"

He smiles at his wife's friend, giving Leanna a quick squeeze on the rear as he does so.

"I'm sure the 2 or 4 or 6 of us could find ways to keep warm and busy."
 
Martin

Martin smiled and grabbed Luri's but with a soft squeeze. "Oh I'm sure we can." He kisse Luri and winked at Leanne and Ford.
 
Ford

Ford glances over at Daryl and Brooke dancing, smiling at the sight, thankful to see Brooke looking happy again. He'd felt a little bad for her when he would see her at Martin's office and would hear from Martin about the crap her ex would put her through.

"What do you think, should we join them in a dance or maybe find some other form of entertainment?"

He grins at Leanna, Martin and Luri, arching his eyebrows as he waits for a response.
 
leanna bollinger

"Lets just dance for now lover and see what happens from there. since I know what your dancing is like. "
whispering in your ear
" You know how horny it makes me when you dance so close I can feel you rub against me"

Glancing in Martin and Luri's direction i tilt my head and say
"Shall we? It is such a shame to leave them dancing all alone"
 
Martin

Martin smiled and nodded. "We will be out. Shall we go do a little Jig my little Luri?" He kissed her softly wondering what was going to happen this fine holiday.
