𝐖𝐞𝐥𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐘𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐂𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝟏𝟖𝟎𝟎𝐬—where great minds gather and the greater ones want to leave! This is the center of science and progress, for better or for worse. Make yourselves comfortable as you try to mingle with everyone from everywhere!

In this universe it is the times of the Gilded age, which is the Victorian era of America, though you can get as loose as you want with your characters as long as they are based somewhere in the 1800s, historical accuracy is of course a flexible rule.

This is an AU based for the characters of the Historical Resurrection RP (@columbiauniversity-schoolboard) and possibly the characters sorrounding them, and this is of course inspired by the Summer Camp AU (@roleplay-summercamp-au). Nothing which happens in this RP is canon to that one. Since this is an alternate universe, these RPs are segregated and seperate, and so—any lore or information about the characters shared here will stay here in this RP.

If you have someone to be added, send a DM or an ask!

No cross tagging, linking, mentioning, etc, from this rp to the other. This is a separate fictional "what if" situation that poses no actual effects on the canon characters.

Not every character has to be a pre-existing one in the other rp, but it is highly recommended as most will be.

This RP is not intended with any real seriousness or to be permanent/long-term, and neither are the characters you will see here. This is just for the laughs and goofs!

The usual common decency of no racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, pedophilia, antisemitism, ableism, etc.

The style of this RP will be a literate one, though you do not have to become Shakespeare for your replies. As long as you and your RP partner are happy, do what you wish!

Of course I am attending a masquerade, I wouldn’t miss it for the world. *looks at reflection in window* As beautiful as ever Tomé. *smirks*

[the-noble-pariah]

*looks back at him* Have some confidence, Osha, your presence is most enjoyable. *follows him outside* You’re sure to be disappointed when all I have to say is a few small tales and frustrations of this job, however I am interested to see what you’ve been up to. *adjusts hat* Yes, well— *gestures hand* I haven’t exactly thought too much of a place to eat; Any places that you fancy? I am open to most places. *continues walking*

*opens door and leans against door frame* Surely you are not terribly busy. Do you have a moment?

*hands lollipop off to student and pats them on the shoulder* You're free to go, and remember... professors prefer you in class late than with a sprained wrist. *dusts off his hands and looks towards him* Well, if it isn't my favorite disgraced noble. *glances up at the clock* The only thing left on my schedule until any more abrupt injuries or ailments is to restock the bandages since we're out. Why?

[the-noble-pariah]

Yes, must be quite amusing to you. *rolls his eyes and adjusts his coat* Because I enjoy your company, is that too hard to understand? *smirks and opens the door for him* Plus i believe it’s about time we caught up with each other, and what better way to do so then over some lunch?

Do you think we should hold a poll to vote on between just doing different time period and staying in America or different time period and different country?//

// HI FELLOW MODS this is a teeny referendum for two ideas me and some other mods cooked up for the RP so comment with thoughts!

for the masquerade ball which the hotel will host, perhaps a sort of blind date deal would be fun? doesn't have to be a DATE date, as in romantic, since the age differences and everything would make that difficult, but two characters would be paired up to spend the ball together. this would be randomized (but also thought through a bit so its made sure the characters work together somehow and that two characters with the same mod aren't paired up) and will be explained in character... in some sort of way, idk we will get there when we get there if this is something people are interested in

AND if ya'll remember that "characters but younger" summercamp AU we had for a bit- we've also had the idea for a victorian AU! basically, everything as is it is now in theory but victorian or generally vaguely 1800s, the time a lot of the characters live. the setting would be similar, probably, but character backstories could be incorporated somehow better aka they dont have to really work or study at the university but just do whatever they did pre-death. then again, the setting as in the place may change because... again, thoughts and opinions needed. AND some characters would work in the 1800s some don't, some would require some tweaking to make them work for the period, and ofc this all means that the social issues that were present in the victorian times (racism, sexism, xenophobia, ableism, ect ect) would rear their ugly head more prominently as they do in the lore of the characters (straight up rp of any of these things ofc isnt tolerated don't be goofy), these are all things to consider, this also wouldn't be a permanent thing like the summercamp AU

so... comment if these things interest you or not and if you'd like to participate in either, and if you got any ideas for any of this feel free to share- also please reblog so im sure all the mods here see it K XOXO GOSSIP GIRL ❤

*steps inside and puts hands on desk and leans on them* And my favorite uneducated medical nurse. *looks over at him* Are you saying you know other disgraced nobles? Perhaps we should all get together, host a party. *groans and pinches brow* Work has been nothing but people crewing my ear out. Tsk and the audacity to believe they could talk to me in such way. *sighs* So I’ve decided I want to go grab lunch, and I want your company. *puts hands on hips*

I love the ideas! the masquerade sounds fun but does anybody else like if it stayed in American? I like the idea of a change of scenery and that when you think the victorian era you think like England or smth and its fine I just wondering since alot of my characters don’t really work out for this au if its set in England //

Do you need a place to stay?

Luckily I didn’t live within the dorms. *crosses arms* As much as a hotel would’ve been lovely to stay at.

[the-noble-pariah]

The festival is today! What are you going to do?

*looking at his face in a mirror* Getting a pumpkin painted on my face. *feels cheek* Apparently, to Emilio it was very important we had matching face paint, and of course I was roped into it.

[the-noble-pariah]

What’s ur type?

*hands a candy apple down to Lola* I believe I’ve seen how this question was used, I’m not sure if I have one. Maybe somebody kind? But I suppose that’s barely anything. *crosses arms* I’ve never focused too much on relationships, I had more important issues.

*looked at the building* I am— so glad i don’t live there. *turns back to him and looks him up and down* You are not injured either? You smell like- agh- the worst chemicals. *steps back* Is there a real fire? I fail to see much smoke.

THERES A FIRE IN THE DORMS

Really? You don't say... *sighs and guides students out and over the curb* Right here, are you alright? Yes, yes, the school can make up for your lost essay if there are damages-

[the-noble-pariah]

Osha! Osha! *runs up to his panting and coughs* The— The dorms! *points at them and gestures before looking over* Oh- I see you’ve also started the noble act of helping those out of the fire. This there anything I can do to help?
