Where we be...

[Ice]

Hiya!
I haven't been here from the beginning, obviously, so I'ma kinda wondering where we are in teh plot..? Is the band complete or is it still recruiting? Have they begun doing shows, what does the newspaper say? Where are they? Still in London? What have the newspapers reported about the different members during the break up?

And what the hell actually happened, why did they split up?

Thanks, and it's great to see y'all again

Squeee! *hug attack*

There isn't really a band. Baz was looking for new members. Leo and Jean came back and were all "Let's get back together!", but then it went all "I don't knooow", so now it's on hold for now. No shows, obviously, and donnu what the newspapers say. Probably not a lot. Don't know what they have said about the members and the break up, since no-one has talked about it, just random rumors.
Still in London.

And Nicci knows more about what happened.

[Ice]

Lol, you guys suck Good thing Ice is back to kick y'all into shape!

...
...
Yeah right ;P

So, Nicci, what really happened?

(*pokebazzpoke* Psst! Wanna play? ;3)

[Balthazar]

So have you figured out where he has been all this time?

PLAY! I think you should start *pokeicepoke*

[Balthazar]

Ah, the ol' wall of text *bangs into*

[Ice]

Bwahahahha! You brought this on yourself

[Jean]

Dudes. You know I am a drugbaby, you can't just expect me to *find* that someone is asking me a question.

Ahem.

You might want to get something to drink, this is going to be a long post, because I am making sure I don't have to tell this story again.

Is the band complete or is it still recruiting? Have they begun doing shows, what does the newspaper say?

So... Looking for members went to hell, Baz is all in love with his old crew and no one quite measures up. He goes about whining about how crappy people are for a while. Leo dreams like only he can dream about how things will be like they always were if he just gets the band together again and drags Jean with him to do so. She is all "Meh." about it, assuming everything will go down the crapper. Leo is of course happy to oblige and fulfill her prophecy, as he fucks everything up once he has finally gotten Baz to maybe, possibly trust him again. (No surprises there, it's Leo right?)

Also, once Leo crushed Baz's hopes of getting his adorable humans back, Balthazar also gets sort of distracted by boobies (happens to the best of us) and seems to forget that he wanted to get a band again.

Where are they? Still in London?

Everybody is in London. Baz still lives in his over the top penthouse. Jean has returned to being normal by just living in an ordinary place with a friend and Leo is being an idiot. An idiot because he gives away his apartment to a homeless girl (Isola/Beatrice), I assume it is also because she has boobies. Then he moves into his sire's old abandoned vampire bar with a bunch of homeless kids and gets surprised when all the vampires come to the bar (as no one told them it closed) and eat said kids. He ends up living with Baz (as you already know).

What have the newspapers reported about the different members during the break up?

This has actually been brought up in actual roleplay threads, but as Jasmine has a malfunctioning memory disc, I bet she doesn't remember. I think we have made a lot of jokes about newspaper stories of a gay love triangle breaking it up. But I think we concluded there was a lot of crazy guesses, as no one really knew what happened and then things mostly died down until Baz decided to take a hint from reality TV and hold open auditions. No one wants to write about an old washed up band that broke up ages ago anyway.

And what the hell actually happened, why did they split up?

It really puzzles me how I am the only one that remembers the end, but here goes nothing.

1. Leo gets turned into a vampire by Sarah, now revised to be Balthazar's crazy vampire-stalker-woman.

2. Baz isn't there to help him, because he has this nasty habit of covering his ears and singing "I feel pretty" REALLY loudly as soon as something goes wrong or someone has a problem.

3. Leo flips out and starts killing random women and hiding their decomposing bodies in his hotel bed.

4. Leo continues his flip out by deciding that Jean is obviously the perfect woman, because she is nothing like the women he usually likes (there is probably no reason for that) and she is always there for him, so he starts acting like a crazy, jealous stalker.

5. Jean finds out that Leo is now a crazy vampire and denies him her sweet lovin' with the added insult of commenting on his vampire manhood.

6. Leo goes nuts and seems to try and bash her head in and strangle her before she runs away, very quickly.

7. Obviously upset that her bestest friend might have just tried to eat her (or something of the sort), Jean gets hammered to a level which is even impressive for her.

8. Ice finds a very, very drunk Jean and "accidentally" gets drunk with her.

9. Ice strips on the hotel bar.

10. Jean, in her drunken state, decides that stripping Ice is not bad, not bad at all.

11. I refuse to get into details, no matter how much creepy cyb0r Tove wants me to.

12. They are both woken up by Leo, who enters without knocking.

13. Ice almost craps his pants at the realization of being almost naked in bed with an almost naked woman (it's not your fault Ice, if you are drunk enough and the lightning is bad, I bet she is the spitting image of a man). Ice runs to throw up.

14. Leo decides that this is still the right time and place to apologize and confess his everlasting love for Jean with a single red rose. Jean runs off and throws up.

15. Jean lies to Ice (who doesn't remember anything) about what happened to save his poor sanity, but Ice can apparently no longer look her in the eyes or talk to her none the less.

16. Jean is convinced that Baz is Leo's sire and refuses to have anything to do with either of the two for quite some time, dropping out of the band.

17. Leo feels confused/hurt and is generally annoying and drops out too.

18. Ice can't even tell Balthazar what happened because he's an awkward son of a bitch.

19. Baz is left standing there going "Where the hell did my band go?"

20. 1-3 years later or so, the time line is fuzzy, they all meet up again (because try as they may, there is just no escaping from Leo). Jean forgives Baz because she realizes he didn't turn Leo and Baz forgives Jean because she's just a human and vampires are scary when they want to kill you. Everyone is a little bit iffy on Leo.

21. The forum has to be started up a third time after an even more uncertain time gap. Leo shows Baz his craziness, Baz grows further understanding of Jean's reaction and they become the bestest of friends while trying to make sure Leo isn't too stupid. A challanging task indeed. Also, Balthazar is apparently not gay (!?). And here we are.

So to sum up, Baz is born clueless, Leo is insane, Ice can't hold his liqour and Jean is a coward.

You guys better not lose this bloody thread because I'm growing sick of re-capping everything for you, at this point I think I could do it in my sleep.

(Thick text means it's important :3)

Feel free to correct me. If any of you can actually remember enough to correct me.

And since when is Ice asian? This is ruining everything for me.

[Jean]

Also, was Ice's real name changed or is my super-roleplay-memory failing me?

[Ice]

I couldn't stop laughing when I read all that crazy shit they did x') Of course I remember Jean and Ice's little thing, but not the rest or how it lead to a breakup. Thank ye gods for your super-human memory *builds an altar to it*

Ice isn't and never were asian, but that is the picture of him I've always used and I couldn't be bothered to change it I'll see if I find some new soon though.

Ices real name has been changed, because I can't remember what it was. This is why people with bad memory like me always should save everything in a word-document, but I didn't, for some stupid reason.

Anyway... *starts worshipping at the altar*

[Balthazar]

Nicci, you just made my day. Lolz galore <3

And you have an altar too?!

[Jean]

Thank to god at no Asian Ice. Not Asian GAY Ice. Phew.

Also, it was James. I have no idea what the last name was, because I am pretty sure I only found out the first name by snooping around and reading every single thread at the time when I joined. Because you know, he was very secretive and I stalk roleplaying characters. (Oliver fits him though. Very British.)

[Balthazar]

I like Oliver. James too though.
He should be Oliver James.

[Jean]

Meh, it all pales to the whole "Not gay"-thing, honestly. Lizette thinks it's just a phase.

[Ice]

It was actually James Oliver

[Leo]

Nice summary! Though I do hear a lot of blaming Leo... *shakes fist and mutters*
You did forget the snasky part about Simone, herrow!

22. Simone is fan and meets Bazz etc, realizing that Leo is lame ass she falls for Bazz. Sarah *surprice* turns her into a vampire and the Simone-Bazz-romance does a hoolahoop resulting in failed relationship. And now Leo has been Bazz's bedwarmer for a week and is currently taking pictures of him *nudge nudge, wink wink*. And sadly Bazz is being a sort of...cold dead fish.

Ps. Leo gave his apartment to Isola because she was sort of falling in love with him and he was creeped out.
