Character number two? Don’t mind if I do.

Okay, I won’t lie in that I was actually patiently waiting to see if Selena would open back up because I had originally wanted to bring this child in but then she got taken before I got the chance but it’s okay because we’re here now! :)

This is a character I randomly got huge muse for months back but never got to properly roleplay because the group died out after like two days? Unfortunately, I haven’t created a bio just yet but I will hit you with the facts below. And as always, feel free to hit me up for plotting/connections either with this girly or Tessa!

So this here is Ivana Marie Castillo - but she pretty much just goes by Ivy.

Honesty think Holly Golightly with a splash of Veronica Lodge and a dash of 6 from Syrup.

Born and raised in New York, she’s very much from an elite/socialite family but she definitely sprouted out on her own and despises when people account her success to her parents.

She’s 24 and just returned from a two year stay at the London College of Fashion, despite having already started her own business and line as a teenager, she wanted and continues to want to be able to expand herself both mentally and professionally.

She’s very driven, independent and passionate, doesn’t believe in whining and/or making excuses and thinks the only way you can fail is if you don’t learn from a misstep.

She’s very confident and bold and won’t be caught in anything she deems less than perfect.

Basically lives by the motto “you can never be overdressed or over educated.”

She’s very much a lover, basically falls in love like 10 times a day and thinks everyone is something special, but she doesn’t really do commitments of any kind  because she’s focused on her passion and isn’t afraid to admit she’d put it first 11/10 times.

She feels that life is a serious of moments and that people aren’t meant to linger, that you’re meant to appreciate the time you share but allow each other to move on and go where you are meant to.

At the end of the day, she feels there’s one life and you’ve got to live it to the fullest so she’s just doing everything she can and following her passions and embracing each moment.

How I Run My Blog.

SPEED: It varies, honestly. Some weeks, I’m on it, replies  caught up everywhere, everyday before bed, but sometimes, they sit for a few days. ADD is a thing, I have it, and it’s also baseball season, which tends to really take over my life, especially in a big series. 

REPLIES: I would say I probably am single para to multi-para. I can do anything from one well-written paragraph to 5+, given the partner and the thread. You don’t need to match, but I do need something to work with. I really only do one liners very rarely, and a lot of the time, it’s just for text message threads, crack, things like that. 

STARTERS: I do throw out occasional starter calls, but plotted is sometimes easier, especially if you’re not a canon character, in the same fandom, as the character. But, I don’t always need it. I don’t do greeter starters, and honestly, I don’t like to reply to them. 

INBOX/IMs: Inboxes are for IC memes, sometimes, OOC messages. I really prefer IM’s be mutuals only (ofodinn is my main blog; all follows are from there), although as long as it’s not pushy or someone randomly messaging me like we’re best friends when we’ve never spoken before. I’m a really talkative person, but that makes me mildly uncomfortable. Discord is for mutuals only, period. I do rp on Discord, I OOC chat on Discord, but only with mutuals. 

SELECTIVITY: It really depends on the blog. I’m reasonably selective on Ragnar, super selective on Jax, semi-selective on the multi, Alfred and Louis. It honestly depends on the blog. 

WISHLIST: I don’t really have one. With my Vikings characters, just more things, more rpers, and give me all the Saxons with Alfred. Jax, idk.

HONEST NOTE: I honestly try not to make people wait really long, and I’m that annoyingly apologetic person who will always apologize if I’m remotely slow, because I pressure myself, more than anyone ever does. I also am someone who loves my consistent writing partners, and I am insecure in new ships, because of past abandonment issues with writing partners. But once I stop being afraid to talk to you, you really can’t get rid of me. I’ll want all the things always, here, Discord, always. I also never shut up. But, really, sometimes, I can be slow to warm up, and am VERY DISTRACTED from February - November, but if I’m not here, I’m on Discord and much faster there with replies, so literally, I want to plot and rp with most everyone.
