Title: Cameo-call
Description: for Legacies of a Physician's Daughter
Laila - June 17, 2006 07:04 PM (GMT)
Hey there,
I didn't put up a cast-call for my new story before because orinially I really thought I had not one spot to fill. Now I realize that even though I don't need major characters - trying to keep the plot-line tight - I need a couple of people the characters socialize with, and I would love to have some of you in it rather than make up a few boring ones ;)
So what I need are:
A nurse
members of the Labour Students
Hospital Staff
Co-workers at Anais's job
I also have one bigger role to give away, or rather one role that matters a lot to the plot ... but I won't say I take the first for that cause I need the feel to be right.
Oh and I can't make all of you nice - you know some people we know might be our rivals etc. So I hope that is ok too.
This is what I need you to fill out:
Name:
Age:
Which of the three groups (nurse, students, hospital staff, co-workers) do you feel most suitable for and why?:
Nationality:
Hobbies:
Likes:
Dislikes:
Personality (with special care on the positive aspects and maybe the negative aspects to you - lol spill it we have 'em all!):
Looks or what celeb would you be portrayed by (keira knightly and alexis bledel are already taken):
Boy you would like (With absolutely no guarantee that I include any... sometimes it just doesn't fit... but they are all open even the ones already in 'use'):
that should do it. I might need more for the one I choose for the bigger role, but i'll contact her if i do.
Soo... I hope some people will help me out here!
love,
Laila

*gaspity* A cast call that people have yet to respond to?! Scandelous!... Teh hehe...
I'd love to have a bit of a part hun, if you'll have me (or rather, Sita)
Here's my info :)
Name: Sita Maddison
Age: 21
Which of the three groups (nurse, students, hospital staff, co-workers) do you feel most suitable for and why?: Probably student, since she's about the right age for that. I don't know; what are you looking for in each?
Nationality: Canadian, but she's lived in American for several years now.
Hobbies: Journalism, painting, playing accoustic guitar and keyboard/piano
Favorites:
music style: accoustic (Jewel, Willy Porter, Holly Brook), but she also likes random weird artistist like Imogen Heap, ha
flowers: irises- blue or purple (but not those typical purple and yellow ones- bleh)
food: Italian
ice cream: mint and cookie dough (or coffee)
pizza topping: pepperoni and pinapple
actor: John Cusack
actress: Meg Ryan
movie: The Jacket
CD: Anything by Willy Porter or Jewel
book: Slaughterhouse Five
quote: "So it goes" (which she says, whenever appropriate, and then proceeds to snigger at all the people who have no idea what she's talking about... ps. in Slaughterhouse Five "So it goes" is present whenever anyone dies or the narrator mentions death, etc)
Dislikes:
smart asses (she lies! she really freaking loves them... particularly certain cheeky boys named Aaron, hehe)
snobby people/bigotry
hip-hop music
crowds
mushrooms
hot weather
Personality: Rather volatile, prone to telling off people she's ticked at. Uber loyal and protective of the few close friends she has. Rather cheeky, no doubt, and daring. Athletic seeming, but not into sports. Pretty easy-going, if you can get her to trust you. Very bright, but it sort of leads to her being so cheeky (ie, she's bored, heh). Cat-like. etc etc...
Looks or what celeb would you be portrayed by: Carly Pope please (though, I don't know if she has grey eyes or not, and Sita has grey eyes, so there that is... Do you need more "looks" info than that? Clothing style? Anything? Just let me know :))
Boy you would like: Aaron Stanford (aka Pyro :tsk: meh hehe...)
If you need anything else (details, alterations in her personality), just let me know (she's a pretty rough character that I'm still working on for another story, so I'm open for changes hehe...)
Sammi - June 17, 2006 09:41 PM (GMT)
Ooh! Me! ^_^ You know how much I love your style, and really adore this story... so I wouldn't miss this for the world, babe.
--------
Name: Annie Mortimer
Age: 29
Which of the three groups (nurse, students, hospital staff, co-workers) do you feel most suitable for and why?: Those actually really all fit me. :blush: Okay, I think hospital staff, because when motivated or really focused, I get things done, and always stick to commitments (which med school is obviously a huge one). I think the human body is fascinating, actually. I'm not always happy-go-lucky, so I don't think a nurse would be the best for me. And, people think I'm always frowning. Idk, when I have that sort of half-smile, I suppose that's what everyone runs around with on their faces all the time? I will, however smile and laugh when I think something's funny or awkward. Or maybe I'm just in a good mood.
Nationality: Scottish.
Hobbies: Reading and writing (obviously). I enjoy walking my dog and bike-riding/roller-skating. School has always been somewhat interesting to me; sciences especially. Biology, Chemistry, Psychology. Lots. I enjoy shopping, but usually don't purchase much. Definitely thrifty. Funny - I won't buy much at malls and such, but let me loose at a thrift or vintage store and I'll spend more than I ever thought I would. Good thing about that, though is that I come out with a lot more, and they're a lot funkier (which I :love: ). Doodling. Music and movies. I have what some people call, unofficially, the Nervous-Leg-Syndrome. Whenever I sit, my legs are always moving. It pisses people off. :unsure:
Likes: Movies. Music. Grey's Anatomy. Dorky boys. Scotland. The general UK. Football (as in "soccer". Hate American football...yick.) Science. Thrift shopping. Traveling. Art (especially like Dali and Monet...). LILIES!!! (Can you tell I adore them?) Languages (in college, I hope to study more like at least Italian and French, if I have the chance. Portugese is fascinating, too.) People that make you think. Movies that make you think. (I like to be challenged.) Violent movies (I LOVED Green Street, especially with all the blood.) So I guess you could say blood, and why I'm a doctor. Its fascinating! Harry Potter. The Renaissance and Elizabethean eras. Anything celtic. Fantasy things like vampires, werewolves, elves, hobbits... etc. So, obviously Tolkien and Anne Rice. DOGS!! I can't imagine myself without a dog! *le sigh* My loves... and dogs are loyal. They don't break your heart. *nods*
Dislikes: It annoys me when people get dramatic about blood. Pansy. Drunks. Eating disorders - they just depress me. Cocky jerks. Modern art. Most pop music (I like Christina Aguilera's voice...) and all rap (except some of the funny stuff like "What's your fantasy" and "To the windows to the walls"... lmao). People who assume they're better than everyone else, like if you were to talk about a story, they automatically say "Come back when you've got [this many] pages written. That's how much I have." <_< I hate you ALL! Broken, unfulfilled and empty promises. That is my BIGGEST pet peeve because it has caused me SOOOO much pain. -_- My little sister. I know its sad, but I really don't like her. Happy-go-lucky people. People untolerant of others. People who walk all over other people. Usually pink, but its begun to grow on me... I could go on forever.
Personality (with special care on the positive aspects and maybe the negative aspects to you - lol spill it we have 'em all!): Okay. Most people describe me as sweet, strong, compassionate. Whatever. I'm a gigantic door-mat, when it comes to those I truly care about. Its the fact that I'm soooo scared that they'll wake up one day and realise that I'm not worth sh*t to them, and never have. I'm deathly scared of that. But, I don't let anyone know that, because then they'd realise how weak I really am and drop me like a hot potatoe. I'm shy when it comes to new people, outside of work. At work, its my job to be at least somewhat friendly, and I'll do anything (well, anything not going against my morals) to not get fired. Like, at parties where I only know few, I usually pass the time listening to other conversations, putting in my input a few times, and that's just to satisfy the people that know me and want me to talk or whatever. Like I said, I don't smile all the time, so people assume I'm pissed all the time. Hey! I'm just thinking, people. It's allowed! I'm scared of love, and what it does to people. Or maybe I'm scared of "love" - that thing that people call love, but it consumes them and destroys them, so how could it be? Anyway... umm, hard worker. I could easily become a workaholic.
Looks or what celeb would you be portrayed by (keira knightly and alexis bledel are already taken): Cintia Dicker. She's a Brazilian model. Only difference, I'm shorter (and obviously not supermodel skinny. Yeah right! :P) and have green eyes (they turn from green to blue if I'm wearing cooler non-green-based colors...)
Boy you would like (With absolutely no guarantee that I include any... sometimes it just doesn't fit... but they are all open even the ones already in 'use'): OMGPLEEZEGERRYBUTLER. *hem* Okay, but seriously. Gerry. That or Charlie Hunnam from 'Green Street' definitely caught my eye. :yum: He's so... I better stop. :blush:
Okay, I think that's all. I'm excited about this!!
:heartbeat:

Airefeaiel - June 18, 2006 01:37 AM (GMT)
Hey Laila, count me in! I <3 your story!
You'll have to excuse me if my info sounds like something out of Grey's Anatomy. :tsk:
Name: Evelyn Rosa Darling
Age: 25
Which of the three groups (nurse, students, hospital staff, co-workers) do you feel most suitable for and why?: Co-workers, or hospital staff, (doctor perhaps?) It could be amusing if she's Orlando's intern or something, she would have gone through a long and painful course at college to get where she is, so no students. Just a note: I wouldn't mind her being a historian like Sophie though, I love history.
Nationality: English (with Spanish Heritage)
Hobbies: She's professionally trained in singing, and classically trained in violin and piano, so she loves to play, sing or dance to music. She loves to visit her family, especially her older sister, Julietta. She loves to read. She likes watching the soccer, haha.
Likes:*Reading and writing *Movies (documentaries, epic films like Cleopatra, The Odyssey, Troy...etc) *Singing (opera & musicals) *Acting (theatre not film) *Chocolate (milk not dark or white lol) *diamonds *Jesus *music Spanish mostly, BOND, Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, The Beatles, Tegan & Sara (who she calls her favourite lesbians) & Gavin DeGraw.
Dislikes:*spiders and insects *people who don't ever compromise *Hypocrites *annoying phonecalls during the middle of the night. (unless, they're emergencies) *homophobes *racist people (*people in the hospital who think they can play God and *her beeper going off at the most awkward times)
Personality (with special care on the positive aspects and maybe the negative aspects to you - lol spill it we have 'em all!):
The fact that Evie loves and hates herself is the reason for her hostility against the elite of London. She is independent and mysterious, always determined to drive herself further to reach her goals. That said, she is terribly mercurial, and her mood can change at the drop of a hat. She strives to be nurtured but hates the idea of being helpless. Evie is shy to love, though she has her fun flirting, knowing most of the time that it won’t lead anywhere. Headstrong and possessive she is prone to jealousy when things she has worked hard for are taken from her. (which could result in an epic love affair...? haha)
Physical Description: Striking would be a good way to describe Evie. She "gives good face," and is the consummate picture of an ingénue: Petite, wide-eyed and disarming. She's slender, with legs like pillars and chocolate eyes that you could drown in. Evie is about 5ft 4, but what she lacks in height she makes up for in beauty and mystery. She forgets to eat sometimes, (because of her job at the hospital?) and it shows on her tiny frame.
Looks or what celeb would you be portrayed by (keira knightly and alexis bledel are already taken): Natalie Portman please, if not Emmy Rossum. (i can provide pictures for both. :))
Boy you would like (With absolutely no guarantee that I include any... sometimes it just doesn't fit... but they are all open even the ones already in 'use'): Orlando Bloom please!!? If not Viggo, since I watched a Perfect Muder last night, haha!

Hospital staff/nurse... I'd study medicine instead of finances. I'm very sutbborn and once I want to do something I try everything to do it. Including possibly saving people.

Heck, you can give me an umbrella and a bunch of flowers and just make me walk by your protagonist once, and I'll be fine anyway. You're like Spielberg! (or probably Hitchcock, but you know what I mean).
Here's my info:
Name:Deidre Scarlet Mayfair
Age: 27
Which of the three groups (nurse, students, hospital staff, co-workers) do you feel most suitable for and why?: Definitely hospital staff. My dad is a male nurse, in real life, and I have always been fascinated by his job, although I could never be a nurse, it takes too much cold blood, committment and lucidity for it, and I am not that good at telling people what to do when it comes to gamble with their healthy. But my favourite subject at uni is Medical interpretation, and this means I could deal with interpreting patients' problems at the ER. I am not scared by blood or anything, just, I doubt I'd have the technical skill to solve deals in the hospital, and as amember of the hospital staff I could rather count on my ability skills.
Nationality: American, from Louisiana, but my parents were Irish, so I am way too tempered for my own good because of both blood and country. ;)
Hobbies:I am into art a lot, expecially music, poetry and painting, but I am a bit of a geek and this means that, whatever my job is, I ccould become obsessed with every aspect of it and turn it into a hobby, as well. I like to go to the cinema, do anything relaxing. I hate sports of every kind, so they're totally off my list.
Likes: Besides what's above, well, I like food, a lot, but surprisingly I only have two meals a day, breakfast and dinner, only breakfast when I'm frustrated. I'm the chain smker with headphones walking you by, ahaha!
I like to hang out with my friends, althogh it's the basic answer, my friends mean the most to me. I have a few, but trustworthy ones. I tend to be lazy when I can, and to procrastinate stuff a lot. I drink a lot of coffee and eat tons of ice cream.
Dislikes: dogs, driving, excercising, and rude people. Take these out the world and I'll be the happiest person ever. I don't like pressure, and responisbility, although I don't fuss about it all the time. I'm the prefect second in charge, but nota leader.
Personality (with special care on the positive aspects and maybe the negative aspects to you - lol spill it we have 'em all!): I am very friendly and poised, so poised that I can look a bit uptight in presenceof wilder people. I can laugh, joke and talk first, but I am not the kind who'd jump in thecrowd, and sometimes this saddens me because I feel Icannot handle people the way I'd wish, but on the utside I look smooth, educated and polite. I am lazy and I tend to mess up my personal schedule, but I'd do anything to help a loved one. I can be a bit bossy when I'm under pressure, although I immediately apologize for it.
Looks or what celeb would you be portrayed by (keira knightly and alexis bledel are already taken): Alicia Witt.
Boy you would like (With absolutely no guarantee that I include any... sometimes it just doesn't fit... but they are all open even the ones already in 'use'): well, besides Viggo, Cillian Murphy or Jonathan Rhys-Meyers. (Irish love, sighhh)
Done and done, thank you so much, dear, I'll be waiting for your decision!
