Hey, hey, hey!
Welcome to all you Valentine loving folks and to all of you anti-Valentine folks out there as well, yes I see you out there Stein.
So the name is Miss Black and with the help of Yeata Zi we're bringing you this user ran Valentine's Day thread!
There will of course be contests galore and non-stop silly posting because it's Valentine's day and you cannot be serious, so staph it just staph.
I had some cue cards of more things to say but I'm pretty sure Hassli might have ate them or fed them to Diedrich not really sure where they went to...And I'm babbling. Crap.
Uh....Yeah so welcome to our thread if you scroll further down there will be a list of various activities/contests and who knows what its for you to take part in.
So pull up a seat, get comfortable, and maybe have a drink? Lord knows I need one right about now I think I sweat all of mine out.
-Cue sad laughing-
Oh and on a side note there's a good chance there may be some anons lurking about please be sure to thank these kind anons when you have the chance.
Also, there's a good chance I may bestow little gifts here and there at random, because I'm a gift ninja and it's what I do.

Hello! This is going to be a good ol' fashioned Dice Contest! How do I play in a good ol' fashioned Dice Contest, you might be wondering. Well, I am happy to say it is fairly easy! All you need to do is roll 20 20-sided dice (under post action). If you get a number of 150 or less you will win an amazing prize! PM me with a link to your winning roll if you win anything!
Test your luck!
All you have to do is roll some dice and perhaps you will win big!
The Rules and how to play
Before hitting the Submit button after you finished writing your post, choose Post Action (default choice should be None).
Now choose Roll Dice. Now you should be able to determine the number of sides on your die (Die size) and the number of dice you will be rolling (# of dice). Choose 20 sided and enter 20 in the # of dice field.
Anyone getting a score of 150 or less will get to choose from one of the prizes below!
If you win, please PM me a link to the post in which you rolled less than 150 and tell us which item you would like to win.
(150 as of 8:48 PM EST on 2/18: Roll must be made after this time to win. )
The party will be on the 18th (Gaia's anniversary!) at 4-7 pm EST (Time zone converter) Make sure to invite your date, friends, your friend's friends, and a few frienemies if you so desire! Dress up in your best Gaiaversary attire and live it up!
Of course, what fun would a party be without some free stuff?
Take a nice screenshot of your time at the party and you could win two million gold!
The categories are: Best dressed individual: You're an independent Gaian who don't need no date! (Yeah, let's go with that) Cutest Couple: AWWW! Look how perfect those two are together! AWWW! Note: You don't have to be cutesy or even a real dating couple to win. Just look good together. Both members of the couple will receive the prize for this contest. Funniest Valentine Avatar Haha! Look at that guy, can't even get a date from an item! Just enter a screenshot of your avatar that makes me laugh. Best Screenshot This is for anything else that stands out as amazing. Group photos, funny moments... anything you'd consider a great moment. Note: Only the person who submitted this picture is eligible to receive a prize due to the nature of the category
Rules for Screenshot Contest:
All avatars must be presented in screenshot form, while in Rose Underground.
You must state the category you are entering this under.
Please crop your picture down to a reasonable size (Not huge, but not too small either)
A person is only eligible to win one prize so make sure the one you are entering is the one you want judged.
No stealing other people's screenshots
Reposting the same screenshot over and over through the thread will get you disqualified.
Feel free to take screenshots while the party is not active!
For the love of all things good, no scripting to get a desired effect. emotion_facepalm
The contest judging will end February 19th at 5pm EST.
A letter, slipped through the mail slot, left on a desk, found on one's bedroom pillow. A simple thing, at first, until one picks it up and takes a closer look. The paper is fine and old, and smells faintly of roses. Or perhaps blood? The scents are faint, and uncertain. Red wax seals the letter, a stamp with an ornate "D" surrounded by ivy decorating the wax. How did this letter arrive? Who is it from? Perhaps curious, perhaps suspicious, perhaps excited, one might open this letter and read,
Dearest Gaian,
You are formally invited to this year's Valentine's ball, hosted most graciously by Madame D and her husband, Sir Lavelle. Formal apparel is highly encouraged, and those found to be too unkempt may be escorted to a side room where they will be... remade. We have but a few simple requests that we hope you will keep in mind.
1. Do be courteous to your fellow guests, and certainly to your hosts. By no means do we wish to see strife within our ranks.
2. Follow the rules of the land. We will be watching.
3. We wish to be impressed. Do try your hardest at whatever you attempt, whether it be conversation, dancing, or drinking.
4. We absolutely discourage wanton behavior. It will not be tolerated, and you will be promptly asked to leave. Though this is a Valentine's dance, it is still in public. Do not embarrass yourself.
At the bottom of the letter is a kiss mark in dark red lipstick, and an elegantly swirling signature from the Madame D. Strangely, no such marking is found for the mentioned Sir Lavelle. On the back of the letter list a time, place, and date for the event. And so one is invited.
((Hello, all! I will be hosting a RP thread for Valentine's! Whether you're curious about RP or a veteran to it, I would encourage you to come and participate! The link for the thread can be found -- here --. If a ball isn't your thing, feel free to stick in the main thread and get some tea from Yeata Zi and her fellow servers!
Edit/Update: I've wrapped up the ball event for now, please see my ending post -- here --. I hope you all enjoyed!))
For artists:
If you'd like to volunteer to be an official artist for this event, please shoot me a PM so I can list your name. If you'd like to include samples of your art, add some links and I'll include them under your name.
I will be continuing to edit this post with relevant information. =)
Hello Everyone!
Welcome to the Heartbreak Cafe Art Freebie Giveaway! We'll likely be giving away art in several different ways so read through this post entirely if you're interested in art. The various giveaways will have different forms to fill out so we can find you and know what kind of art you want!
In this event, artists select people at random based on the requests in the thread and their personal preferences. Artists are welcome to do as much or as little art as they want!
Please be sure to follow the Freebie Rules to ensure everyone has fun!
1. Posting a request for art is not a guarantee of getting free art. All artists in this thread are volunteering personal time to this event so please respect that and don't treat them like they're obligated to give you art!
2. Following the first rule, please do not multi-quote artists to guilt trip or beg for art.
3. If it looks like your request was passed up or missed, you may re-post it. But do not spam the thread with multiple requests on every page!
4. Please do not try to request specific artists! This puts a lot of pressure on people, and can stir up negative feelings. This also means not to quote specific people to request art. Your request is fair game for any one!
5. Please follow all other thread rules.
6. Have fun!
For this giveaway, various artists will simply be giving avatar and OC art out to people at random in the thread. All you have to do is post and wait. But be sure to use the provided form, otherwise we won't be able to find you! But please remember that posting a request does not guarantee artwork--it's just putting your name out there so artists know you're interested.
Not all artists are willing to draw OCs but you're welcome to post their information for consideration.
[align=center][img]http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc49/eshkenazi/Dream Tank/Heartbreak3.jpg~original[/img]
[b]Please draw my: [/b] Avatar/Original Character
[b]My avatar/OC is:[/b] Male/Female
[b]My OC references are:[/b] (please link to visual references)
[b]Extra Information[/b]: (please include other relevant information)[/align]
TIPS for random art:
--If you're seeking avatar art, please keep your equipped list visible. It's way easier to draw an avatar if we know what you're wearing.
--If you're requesting OC art, remember to include visual references.
--Keep character info short and concise. We can all go overboard with character descriptions but the art given away here is speed art a lot of times. We want to give art to as many people as possible! So help us out by only giving relevant information.
--post multiple avatars! A lot of artists are drawn to specific themes so if you have multiple avatars you'd like to see art of, post them along with your form. You have a lot higher chance of getting art if the artists have some variety to choose from.
Have you ever wanted to seen yourself drawn with one of Gaia's beloved NPCs? Have you imagined being set up on a blind date with a random person with whom you can do romantic things like snuggle in front of a fire, share a plate of spaghetti, or fly through space scooping up the kitten stars and bopping them on the heads? Well, this is totally the event for you.
How this event works:
Use the provided form to let us know you'd like to go on a mystery date with a randomly selected NPC! Post the form and generate a random number between 1 and 10. And one of our fine artists will draw you with a random NPC based on the number you generate. Please remember that posting a request does not guarantee artwork!
Whether or not an artist is willing to draw your OC with an NPC instead of your avatar, is up to the individual. You may post OC information if you want!

thank you all for participating in this grand adventure!
On the 14th of February, we shall celebrate the first full moon rising from the darkness, where the infamous outcast god, Nyx has called to us beyond the abandoned pages of the Airship Saga. We are the cult of Nyx, and we come forth to bring good tidings and prizes from the realms of the abandoned plots and scrapped events!
Nothing is without a price, however, and we ask for your creativity in avatar contests. There are not one, not two, but FOUR categories in the contest. Lets see the ridiculous to the spendthrift styles.
Come, and pick your poison...
CONTEST #1
No one is overlooked when our dark lord rises. An outcast himself, he cares for the misfits of the world. Even the most poor of Gaians would be fit to wear the uniform to serve Him.
Theme description: Ritualistic avatar, must contain at least 1 crescent moon that is highly visible. Not gender specific, nor era specific. Use your imagination!
Total Cost: 500k and under.
Prize: + 2 million gaia_gaiagold CONTEST #2
For every leader, there's a great many top tiered followers who run the scenes to keep things running smoothly. They are the high priests and priestesses of the Crescent Moon, those closest to our dark savior, Nyx. They might be better dressed than the average follower, but they do not hold it above anyone, for all are equal in darkness.
Theme description: Ritual/cult follower avatar. 3 crescent moon type items must be visibly seen. Not gender specific, nor era specific. Use your imagination!
Total Cost: 5 mil and under
Prize:gaia_gaiagold 5 million gaia_gaiagold CONTEST #3

For Dating Sim Contest NPC RIna: "It was only when I exited class that I noticed the strange sight. A girl was making her way to the stairwell, her pace nearly a dance, with a small cat in tow. I could almost hear singing though I could not for the life of me identify the song. Her name was Rina, if I remember correctly, and she was the vice president of both the baking and gardening clubs. I paused watching as she turned and descended the stairs. I wondered for a moment if I should follow her.

Dear Zhivago,
You stand out to me not because you don't sparkle nor participate in wild parties but because you are confident in yourself. It is because of your confidence you ooze charm without trying too hard. Every time I see you transform into colony of bats I cannot help but sit back in awe. When you wield your sniper rifle or the glove weapon I want to slide my hand across yours right before you get off that perfect shot. You are loyal to those that allow you to be free and those that cage you cannot stop you; do not allow them to believe they can.
Yours always,

Dear Damian
I haven't the faintest Idea if you even remember me or if I even have the courage to send this one.
I've lost count of all the others, they lie crumbled up in the trash can each time my weakness overtook me so I fear I must continue writing this and get it out of my system once and for all.
But it never really stays out of my system, not for very long anyway.
It was in 2003 that I met you, I had just arrived and interested in buying a business. I heard Barton was good for second chances and fresh starts. Something I badly needed since , well, you don't need to know that. I was passing by your shop and a large blonde man in a purple vest knocked me down. You didn't even know me and you had no reason at all but you strode over, extended your hand to help me up. You even helped get my things back into my suitcase. I looked into your eyes and heard your voice ask if I was ok. I didn't think I could ever breath again.
I must admit I was completely smitten.
But you were never really mine and I accept that. You have never been anything but kind to me, even when I fell ill for the first time after Gambinos ball. I transformed my entire body into one that might be more pleasing, to female, and I still couldn't catch your eye. Who could fall in love with an infirm going in and out of the hospital in G-corp? So many experiments, so many injections just to stay alive until a cure was found. You only ever thought of her, I watched as you pined over her for years. You lost weight as well and I remember trying to bring you some food at times. but you never noticed that I was doing the same exact thing for you.
I've seen you reunite with your family, something you've always yearned for. Seeing that make you happy however briefly comforts me. You aren't alone anymore and that makes this decision a little easier for me.
I long to hear your voice again, even now, but I have to make a choice. The choice to bury my loving you. This way it harms none except for me but I can manage and it won't affect your chances with her. Ian, I love you, but I know that I will have to kill it somehow. It's not her fault and it isn't your fault . . but it is my own so please don't blame yourself like I know you will.
I just wanted to say goodbye to you. I think that once again it is time to move on and try another place for a while. To see if that finds me a place where I belong. but don't know if I have this down right so I suppose I will try and write yet another letter. Something I can actually send to you that won't . . .I don't even know, just something more appropriate and less . . .me. You don't need to know about breathlessly pining, you've enough on your plate as it is. Besides, it's enough for me to have known you. You are very special to me. . . .You always will be.
Sincerely
Jayce Reinhardt

Dear Jayce
While you were taking the trash out from your place, one managed to free itself and fell to the ground. Rufus started playing with the balled up paper and well, you can imagine how that went. I read your letter and before you get scared off I want you to know that what you said means the world to me. I never thought in a million years someone would feel that strongly for me.
I know you never meant for me to have seen it and I hope this doesn't add to your fears but I have to be honest. Knowing how you feel for me is an incredible gift but right now I don't know if I can be with anyone. I suppose I am just a slow healer but I did put all of my eggs in my basket and got horribly burned. I won't go in depth because I realize you know the pain just as I do.
I just can't right now and I sincerely hope that you understand. I can't say as to what might happen in the future and you are incredibly beautiful, I'm still just a man after all. Your illness doesn't detract from that and they did find a cure if that helps any. I hope this won't cause any further awkwardness between us and I really wish you wouldn't leave because of me. Running away is just another form of hiding, Jayce.
I'm not trying to push everyone away, I'm not trying to push you away. I do admit I have been very anti social for a while. Ok, a few years but just as you say you love me, I loved her. Sasha didn't return my feelings and wasn't all that shy about rejecting me again, and again. She chose just about everyone else, including my half brother and left me behind. Please don't do the same thing she did, Don't run from me. I need my friends around me, if I can ask you to be patient with me just a while longer? I don't know what the future holds, if it's even for us but I'm just too wounded for anything right now.
With due respect

Dear Easter Bunny,
In all of the world, there is not enough words to express the love I feel in this moment. There is not enough I can give you, you who has given so much to the world. You bring so much happiness all the time, I do not know if you are aware. Every egg is like a token of the happiness you wish to give, and the explosions they cause are like a burst of fiery passion that rages through us all and warms us with your love! My dear, this year, I just want to share that fiery passion with you, I want you to feel the love I have to send. For all you have given, I wish to return the favor.
All my love,
Ashlex In Pearl

Dear Liam, This is really hard for me to say, but I think we should maybe see each other maybe sometime...emotion_bigheartYou're mine now, I've claimed you, and any other girl who even looks at you funny is going to get a taste of my pure wrath! I would love to get to know you better, you seem really cool but don't think that means I won't still kill you if you break my heart! I know sometimes I seem a bit weird, but I'd really like to see you soon... maybe on Friday? You're mine til you die,

Dear Jayce Reinhardt,
What would you say when I tell you you’re all I can think of morning, noon and night? That I get butterflies in my belly at the mere sight of you? What would you think when I confess that I remember the electrical caresses your touches caused upon my skin? And yet they’ve only ever been friendly or a pass thought. I can remember all your good and bad jokes as being hilarious to me, not because they were inordinately funny but because they were yours. I wonder what you would say when I tell you that I can go through days and weeks without seeing you or hearing from you, but the moment I do nothing else in the entire world matters but being with you in that moment no matter how short it might be simply because I’m with you. My entire being stops upon seeing you through the window of my shop.
When I look at every suitor I’ve had or will have in my life, all I can see that every single one of them has been weighed and measured only to come up wanting in comparison to you; I know that there will never be any other person who I’ll love more then I love you. So many times I’ve remembered how we’ve been together in the past, and the only thing in focus at that moment was you and I. I think part of me always knew you were the only one I was ever supposed to kiss for the rest of my life, you are a gift I was always so scared of losing, one I was scared would be taken from me; and so I never allowed myself to have you. I’ve tried to narrow down what makes you so alluring, makes me so sure that you’re it for me. But the truth is that it’s a million little things that when you add them all up – all I know is its just magic. You and I are magic together, and I don’t think that will ever change no matter how far apart we are.
I know that if we were together there would be tough times between us, and that at one point both us would want out of the relationship. But in a relationship you’re promising to care about everything. The good things, the bad things, the mundane things, the special things, all of it, all of the time, every day. You’re telling each other “Your life will not be unimportant because it will be important to me. You’re life will not go unnoticed because I will notice it and I will be your witness so you will not go unwitnessed throughout your life.” But mostly when you add up everything I want to say to you, it’s that my love for you runs so deeply that I believe your happiness comes before my own; and if that meant not being with you so you could be with someone else I would do it.
But while I have you here, right now if I don’t ask you to be mine, to stand by me, and take my heart into your keeping I will regret it for the rest of my life. Because I know when someone asked me what was the best thing throughout the entirety of my life at the end? I can honestly say it was you.

Dear Ian,
I know you might think it's terribly forward, me writing to you like this, but I simply can't contain my feelings any longer. I want you to know that I think you're utterly charming. Each time I enter your shop, you greet me with such a cheerful demeanor, and always have a kind word to say about everyone. Your continual optimism is absolutely adorable... And I never could resist a fellow who loves cats.
Don't be alarmed, dear, I don't mean to be too bold, it's only that I want you to be my Valentine this year. Might I propose a moonlight stroll along the streets of Barton? You're always saying what a nice place it is. We can even have Rufus come with us as chaperon if you think it would be more proper...
Oh, do say yes!
With fondest regard,
Harpsdesire

Dear Flynn,
When I’m with you I start to wonder if I’m in some kind of cheesy romantic comedy. It was great at first, I buy your chest and I win some gold. Sometimes it was not as much as I hope but other times I was happy. A love/hate relationship that was funny at the time but it’s becoming too much now. Don’t you hear the angry audience of gaians yelling at the screen telling you to get your act together? As for me it’s becoming more of a hate/why don’t you piss off relationship. That’s why I’m ending this. I’m turning the channel from this romantic comedy and won’t come back for another season.
Do not stay tune.

Dear Anurla,
I'm writing you to let you know how special I think you are. Well, clearly I think you're special, otherwise I wouldn't have gone to the trouble to slaughter a black goat during a new moon, using its blood for ink to draw a pentagram and write you this note. Postage to the nether realms is crazy!
Anyway, I've been a fan of yours for a long time and, considering that we're both incubi, I think we'd have a lot in common. In this business, people have a lot of preconceived notions about who we are; but we know that there's so much more to us than seducing mortals! For example, I like collecting porcelain pony figurines and cooking thai food. I look forward to discovering what makes you special, too. Would you like to meet over coffee and spend a little time learning about each other?
Hopefully,
Timmish

Dear Logan,
this will be the last time I am writing you; clearly the first 157 letters were not enough. It doesn't matter how many times I have confessed my love, you keep treating me like a stranger. Every time I see you you call me bub, which at first I thought was sweet, like some sort of nickname, but I hear you call everyone that! After I poured my heart out for you, gave you my undying adoration, all you do is meet me with cold distance. It makes me want you even more! I don't understand it. It's like you're leading me on and I must chase you. So my strong, burly gazelle, this little lion is on the hunt. I just want to run my fingers threw your back hair and nibble on your ear. The smell of sweat and fish is just so overpowering: I could just eat you up! Enclosed in this letter is a photo of me as your sexy lion. Please know I have thousands more just like it, just for you.
Absolutely out of my flippin' mind for you,
Annabel

Dear Ivan
My darling accountant! How can I even begin to describe my feelings for you...
When I observe you having your morning coffee from my bush outside your window my heart gets all a-flutter. Sometimes I imagine I'm your favorite mug, having the privilege to be in contact with that stern mouth of yours...
Forgive me if this letter is damp when you receive it, I seem to keep drooling when I start imagining your lips pressed against mine. I assure you my tax papers are much neater, just for you Ivan. Speaking of taxes, I heard you're letting people schedule appointments with you to get help on their tax returns. I've already bought the special "tax accounting bundle"! So you can expect to see me next week. Everyday. For a minimum of three hours each day.
Happy Valentine's my sweet tax man, I hope you're prepared to spend time with your biggest fan.
Much love, and stalking

Dear Nicolae,
You may not see this until a week… or maybe a month passes. You are everywhere but here. I know I don’t see you often because of how our lives are going in opposite directions. But… I want you to know I love you. I always will.
The key’s in the flower pot next to the door. Fresh undies where they always are. And the fridge is stocked with your favorites.

Dear Carl:
Forgive me for sending this on such short notice, I know how much you hate when things aren't sent at proper times, but I must tell you this now before our relationship goes deeper. I know you have feelings for me. I knew from the very minute I walked into your shop. The smell of cheap, discounted toilet paper and the sight of possibly used underwear could not deter me from seeing your loving gazes. I remember the first time you hinted your affections towards me when we were alone on a slow Sunday afternoon.
I remember from that moment on, you would attempt to catch my attention by giving me chewed up roses you stole from Rina's flowershop. You were obvious about it too, I remember how you would always captivate me with your smooth moves and loving gestures.
I even noticed when you would purposely perfume yourself with the scent of mud and catnip just to capture my attention once again.
But alas Carl, that is not the point of this letter. You see Carl, while I loved being by your side, helping to place various garments of clothing on your antlers, I fell in love with another. This pains me to say, but the Junk in this Trunk is not for you. I have fallen for one who notices me in ways I never knew I wanted to be noticed in, and I have no regrets on our romance. Goodbye Carl, I have left a collection of sagebrush and pine needles behind the counter. Do not write back to me, for I shall be busy spending time with my new beau. A beau who I absolutely adore, and who absolutely adores me.

Dear Ashley,
Will you be my Valenti
Are you tired? Because you've been running around my mind all da
Okay, I'm clearly new to this whole love letter ordeal. I haven't a single idea how to go about it; I've never written one in my entire life, but Crescento insisted that this kind of thing was popular among the ladies... And to woo you, I'd do anything.
So, here I am, baring my heart to you. I hope you'll accept me.
It was exactly five days ago when I caught a glimpse of your gorgeous face passing through my store. Yeah, it was only a glimpse, but you made me almost fall off my stool. The way your vanilla skin glowed warmly in the sunlight and the way your dark hair was lifted lightly by the breeze as you passed by... I swear my heart started beating twice as fast. The first thought that came to mind was, 'how could a mere woman set off such a reaction from me?' But even then, I already knew you weren't just a 'mere' woman. Nothing about you was simple. All I could think of for the next few days was how much I would love to lose myself in your mysterious complexity. You've got my hands tied behind my back, Ashley. I don't know what to do with myself. I need to see you again. I need to put this yearning heart to rest.
I hope you don't mind that I sent one of my frequent shoppers after you to ask for your name. I didn't chase after you myself because I didn't want you to see me in such a shameful state. Yes, it was a cowardly move on my part, but I'll make it up to you if you'll allow me to. When we meet, face to face, I'll be ready to capture your heart for sure.
And I won't stop until I have -- to me, you are the most precious treasure there is.
Yours,
Nicolae
P.S. I'll be waiting at the Heartbreak Cafe tomorrow. I won't leave until I see you again.
