 Second - I welcome almost all backstories and roleplays.  If you'd like to do some sort of life-changing collaboration storyline involving Elle, please clear it with me first so I can think about the story a bit ahead of time and make it an awesome experience for both of us!  That being said, I almost never turn down playing a role in your character's development.
-Third - Regarding character relationships, while I am okay with Lily becoming - slowly - involved with somebody romantically, It would need to be something that would be built up upon many roleplaying sessions.  I also want to stress that it would be strictly IC and would have it not bleed into the real world.  Please respect that I prefer to keep the boundary in-game and will respond negatively if you try to make it go beyond that.  Thank you! :)
