When you're working in the hive, you have but two chioces; to bee, or not to bee.

About the Writer:

Hi! I'm Mellific. Feel free to call me Mel. I have a passion for the written word and collaborative writing. I have been writing for over a decade; it is my fondest pastime. Creating characters and stories, while sometimes challenging, I find can also be incredibly rewarding. I only post in the forums, and I only write here on E. Adult content does not only revolve around sexual stories, in my opinion. Though I have every intention of including sexual elements and adult themes in my games, this should never be to the exclusion of a solid and concrete plot. As a writing partner, I believe that communication and patience work hand in hand. I expect that a writing partner will not mix or blur the lines between RP and RL. Please refer to the lists below for more details. If you wish to reach out, please do not hesitate to send me a PM.

Posting Frequency: Because I love writing and having an array of stories to write, I tend to overextend myself and sign up for more games than I can juggle with rapid replies. My goal for posting replies is once per week, or sooner when possible. Sometimes, I will be further delayed due to RL and when this is the case, I always update my A/A and make sure my partners are aware of a lack of activity.

Post Length: As long as replies are not one-liners and have enough material to work with, I am content. I do not have a minimum or a maximum word limit per post. I am all about quality over quantity. To me, neither short nor long posts are better, rather it is best to post quality, no matter its length. As such, my post lengths tend to vary in length. Please do not take this to mean that your post was problematic.

Post Order: There is a saying about how the heart wants what it wants, and I find that very same thing can be said for the muse. When it wants to reply to a specific store, it doesn't consider where in line that story falls. Therefore, I will sometimes post out of chronological order. Please do not take this personally. While I try to be as considerate as possible to those who are waiting on my replies, I find that it's generally better to write what is inspirational, rather than force something that isn't.

Characters (Yours & Mine): I do not mind playing males or females. I do not mind if you play males or females. For particular story ideas, I may have preferences for pairings, and generally speaking, my wheelhouse is MxF pairings. However, I am additionally a rainbow writer and accept MxM as well as FxF pairings and will even consider Poly pairings as well. Your RL gender is irrelevant to me. What does matter is that the character you are portraying is believable.

I'll be your honey; never expire. (ON's)

In a Partner:

Compatibility: I am interested in writing with a partner who inspires me and who, in turn, is inspired by our story together. I hope to write with someone of compatible writing styles.

Grammar: Proper grammar and spelling are important. The occasional typo is understandable, but too many errors pulls me out of the story.

Continuity: I am patient, however I very much appreciate being told of delays in advance. Absences are inevitable, RL always comes first, but after too long a pause, it becomes a struggle to carry on.

Smut/Plot Ratio: While I firmly believe that sexual elements have a place in my games, I also expect that smut will take a backseat to the overall plot.

Availability: I would like to write with partners who are available and able to reply more than once a month.

Communication: I also believe that communication is key and value a partner who communicates with me about the story.

Spontaneity: I adore being surprised, so don't be afraid to throw a wrench into things. I promise, if ever I feel uncomfortable or am struggling, I will express it.

In a Character:

Realism: I enjoy realistic Rp, and as such, realistic characters. The more realistic the character, the more immersive the writing experience.

Maturity: I mean this both literally and metaphorically. I prefer characters who act their age. That age must be 17 or older, for my own comfort.

Potential for Growth: Watching a character grow throughout the pages of a story is captivating. I enjoy witnessing and experiencing character development as a story unfolds.

In a Role-Play:

Realism: Though previously mentioned, it's worth stressing. I process Rp's the best when they are realistic and believable. This doesn't mean I only do human/modern Rp, though that is my wheelhouse.

Longevity: Not every story needs to be long. However, it should be mentioned that I begin games with the intention and hope of one day finishing them. There is nothing more fulfilling than a completed tale.

Enjoyment: Perhaps it goes without saying, but this applies to my writing partner as much as it does to me. I want the experience of writing together to be enjoyable for both of us.

Organic Plotting: By this I mean that I do not like to pre-plan too much in my games. A general idea of the beginning and even the end, is acceptable. But too much planning will deter me from the story.

You catch more flies with honey than vinegar. (OFF's)

In a Partner:

God-Modding/Meta-Gaming: Please do neither of these things. Both of them are huge pet-peeves of mine. I cannot stress enough how demoralizing it is to have your character written for you and how unfair it is to use information your character wouldn't know, in order to benefit them.

One-liners: While I certainly don't mind shorter posts, I need to have enough material to work with, and one-liners tend to not be enough. Please write more than that and be sure that your post gives me enough to reply to.

Prodding for Replies: Sometimes I post out of order, sometimes I will take longer than a week to respond. I try my best to let my writing partners know when to expect delays and I have to post where my muse leads me. Please understand that, and do not badger me for replies. If you're afraid I've forgotten, you may politely poke me, but please do not prod.

In a Character:

Abuse/Torture: Violence has no place in a romantic story, in my mind. There is a time and a place for Dub-con, as well as Non-con. However, abuse crosses into different territory. I will not be comfortable writing out scenes that depict torture unless death is imminent.

Hatred: While I don't mind playing a character who has strong animosity for another, pure hatred leads to places I'd rather not travel. It also makes a connection between those two character very difficult, if not impossible, to realistically obtain.

No Connection: If there is no connection between our characters, then the story won't work out. I'm not the sort to try and force something that doesn't feel right.

In a Role-Play:

Restrictions: It is important to me in my writing to be able to express myself as freely as possible. When there are too many rules and stipulations in place, I will shy away from the game due to a lack of creative freedom.

Lack of Activity: After enough time passes, I will start to lose the spark that I originally had for the story and the voice of my character will die out. Though I do not mind pausing for partners who request it, I cannot guarantee when the story is ready to pick up again, that I will still be committed.

Compromised Story: Sometimes it happens, and it's unfortunate when it does. However, if either writer loses interest, then the game should stop. If the story itself has become compromised or strayed too far from its original path and is no longer going in the direction either writer wanted, then it should end.

Kinks:
Rough: Dirty talking, spanking, biting, breath play, edging, orgasm control, scratching, hair pulling, slapping (within reason).
BDSM: Domination and submission, obedience and servitude, bondage, restraints, toys, suspension, humiliation, rough play, pain for pleasure (within reason).
Vanilla: Good, old fashioned, classic love-making without the use of force, between two people who love each other, or like each other, or just want to get down and dirty.
Romance/Relationships: Whether conventional or not, exploring a romantic relationship is always full of win.
Forced and Non-Consensual/Dubious Consent: These are big fetishes of mine if done correctly. I may be picky about who I play these sorts of scenes out with.
Taboo Situations: Another big fetish that needs to be done in the right way. Voyeurism, exhibitionism, and simply inappropriate pairings. Absolutely no adult/child incest.

Icks:

Extreme Anything: Toilet play, mutilation, gore, knife play, vomit, vore, cannibalism, etc. None of these things are appealing or sexy to me.
Transgender, Hermaphrodite, Futa, Transformations: Nothing personal, I simply have no experience playing with or opposite these characters and am not drawn to them.
Bestiality: Animals and people are different species and I just have no interest or allure to this sort of scenario.

Thank you so much for reading through my O/O's! If you think we might mesh well together as writing partners, then please shoot me a PM. I'll be sweet as honey.

At-Home Nurse.
_{Modern/Human/Contemporary Romance.}

This concept involves a patient who has suffered from a recent accident or surgery and meets a nurse at the hospital. When he is discharged, it is clear that he will still need at-home nursing care for a while, during his recovery. The nurse happens to provide such a service and passes him her card, should he feel so inclined to call. He does, which prompts her to visit his home routinely. Things quickly get hot between the pair, but while this patient is recovering, he was given very specific instructions to avoid sex for at least a month. Besides, it would be entirely unprofessional for a nurse to sleep with her patient.

Artificial Feelings.
_{Near Future/Sci-Fi/Romance/Tragedy.}

The concept of AI's are quickly becoming a commonality. By the time robots start to move into peoples houses, the belief that they were a threat to humans, started to wane. After all, they were created by man, to function and perform according to that man's will. Many people saw the benefit in purchasing a robot to do their chores and act as a maid, or landscaper. The perk being, they didn't need to get paid, just recharged at the end of the night. So, when one man decides to push the boundaries and limitations of such an AI, by tweaking a model he had purchased for simple tasks, things take a turn. Originally, he bought the robot for ease of access, after his wife died. He had been too depressed for a long time, to keep up with the house. But then it occurred to him - maybe she could live on... maybe she could be reborn, into this very machine.

Significant Other.
_{Modern/Human/Adultery.}

For this concept, I would require a partner to take on the role of two characters, so it will be a bit of a commitment on that front. Essentially, we would play two pairs. First, there is the married couple. Then, there are the 'others' who they are cheating with. My thought would be that the marriage has gotten stale, and lost its spark, but isn't over yet. Perhaps they've considered divorce, but they've never openly talked about it, or threatened the other with it. Yet, each spouse is cheating with someone else, behind their spouse's back. In my mind, I'm picturing something like; the husband cheats on his wife with the new office intern, or even the maid who weekly cleans the house, while the wife is cheating with a neighbor or maybe even someone from the landscaping company. Because there are so many angles that this could go, I would like to simply sit back and watch how things progress, in terms of jealousy, suspicion, doubt and betrayal.

Payback.
_{Modern/Human/Potentially NC/Power Struggle}

One look at my profile age and it should be clear as to why this concept suddenly entered my head. It's time for that dreaded ten year high school reunion, which our characters were invited to through Facebook. For whatever reason, (this part can be discussed) our characters decide to go. Perhaps they were just to curious about how their peers turned out, or maybe they were hoping to rekindle an old flame with someone. When our characters happen upon each other, things get interesting. In high school, they were rivals of some kind. Maybe he bullied her, or maybe she humiliated him in front of everyone. Whichever one was wronged, they will be the one seeking to get revenge on the other. This doesn't have to be a Non-Con situation, but it can get as dark as we'd like.

Roommate Contract
_{Modern/Slice of Life/D/s Elements}

The plan was to get an affordable apartment, but did that mean it had to be located in a bad part of town? Apparently so, considering that was all she could afford. Still, a girl could dream, right? So, she went on to Craig's List and searched for apartments in the neighborhood she wished to live in - just a few blocks from campus and around the corner from where she worked - it would be perfect. And the advertisement said that rent was negotiable. Well, perhaps she could persuade someone to allow her to stay there rent free. IF she could make a convincing enough argument.
