  <description>&lt;a name=&quot;cutid1&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First of all, I may seem picky, but I&apos;m not. I&apos;m also not a mean person. I&apos;m very easygoing and polite.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That being said, the following is what I prefer:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;+ Description. Normally at least 7+ lines in a small-sized IM. Please be able to do at least that much.&lt;br /&gt;+ Spelling/Grammar. I know that typoes happen, they happen to me, too. If you&apos;re typoing a lot, please spell check your work. Please be able to compose a sentence. This is grade-school grammar stuff.&lt;br /&gt;+ Creativity. I don&apos;t want to play the same old &apos;boy meets boy. boy falls in love with boy. boy has mad sex with boy.&apos; thing, because we&apos;ve all done it before. I like something new, I like action and adventure and science fiction and horror and mystery. A sex scene is fine, if it&apos;s thrown in with plot.&lt;br /&gt;+ Helpful. I cannot pull ideas completely out of my ass. A bit of help would be nice. And, if you&apos;re IMing me, have some idea of what you want to work out. I have some ideas below. Don&apos;t be afraid to suggest something a little different, because I might really like it. And if not, I promise to be cool about it.&lt;br /&gt;+ Diverse characters. If you play nothing but ultra-submissive feminine bottom boys, please don&apos;t bother. Your character&apos;s main personality descriptor should not be his position during sex, thank you.&lt;br /&gt;+ Slash. Unless you haven&apos;t realized yet, I play mostly slash (male/male) games.&lt;br /&gt;+ &lt;b&gt;givehimamask&lt;/b&gt; is the screen name. Go for it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here&apos;s a list of the scenes that I enjoy playing:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Modern&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;High-school settings.&lt;br /&gt;College settings.&lt;br /&gt;Room-Mates.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Historical&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Note: I&apos;m not a historical expert by any means, but I do research any settings I play in. I can&apos;t promise to be a hundred percent historically accurate, but I do try. As should you.)&lt;br /&gt;Egypt&lt;br /&gt;Greece&lt;br /&gt;Rome&lt;br /&gt;Renaissance&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Fantasy&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Elves&lt;br /&gt;Warriors&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Futuristic&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Post-Apocalyptic&lt;br /&gt;Mutants&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;U.S.T.&lt;/b&gt; is a big like of mine - that is, unresolved sexual tension. Characters who teeter on the &apos;will they or won&apos;t they&apos; for a long, long time, maybe because of societal pressures or work-related reasons, or maybe just because they&apos;re too stubborn to admit anything.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And here are some of my favorite character types to play:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eunuchs.&lt;br /&gt;Dancers/Serving Boys.&lt;br /&gt;Gladiators.&lt;br /&gt;Stuck-Up Royalty.&lt;br /&gt;Adventurers.&lt;br /&gt;Soldiers.&lt;br /&gt;Rebels.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have a slight preference toward playing the submissive in a romantic relationship, but I can play either, as long as you can play either as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;u&gt;About Me&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I&apos;m not going to tell you who I am. Haha. Like most people who play online, I am biologically female. I&apos;m very male-brained, or so I&apos;ve been told (by friends and by online tests) and I&apos;ve been playing male characters for four years now. So I think I&apos;m well-practiced at it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you insist upon calling me something, you can name me.</description>
