#OC meme ask

[roblingoblin285]

i love when ppl ask writers questions about their ocs and they're like "uhh i think so?" as if they didn't invent them. like they're just mild acquaintances we have

[ink-flavored]

i'm as upset as any 10+ year old tumblr user to see the degradation of ask culture. since i've been making my own games, i get people in my notes reblogging one game regularly—weekly, daily, sometimes multiple time a day—desperate for interaction that their followers simply won't give them, even as those same followers reblog the game from them. it's awful to see people crying out for connection only to be ignored by people who can obviously hear them. it makes me sad!!! and it's frustrating!!!

but at a certain point, we have to accept that yelling about how things were 10 years ago isn't going to change people's behavior. a vast majority of tumblr users simply do not send asks, don't intend to, and will reblog ask games without sending any questions no matter how much we insist it's impolite. it's time for a new approach—so to that end:

for everyone reading this, i give you permission and highly encourage you to copy and paste my ask games (any ask game tbh) into a blank document, fill out every single question for the OCs or WIPs of your choice, and post it. without getting a single ask from anyone, share it anyway. one question at a time, everything in one giant text post, whatever. there's a good chance people who are too shy to send asks will appreciate getting to learn about your characters and stories, and maybe even encourage them to ask you for more details. and even if they don't, maybe you'll build the confidence to post whatever you want about your characters, whenever you want.

be free.

Can i have 3,7,19 for Maggie please? 🖤

Thank you! <3

Questions here

-

3. What is your OC's fatal flaw? Are they aware of this flaw?

I'd say it is Maggie's lack of self-control. After her adopted parent's were murdered, and she joined up with Maelstrom for revenge against the other gangs who committed said murder, the feeling of power she had after the successful takedown was almost overwhelming. It took her a long time to get over this feeling, and it caused a pathway of destruction. She wasn't able to stop killing after this. Any Tyger, any Animal she came across, it was a almost as if her urges and self control completely flew out the window, because she knew she could do it and get away with it. So yes she was aware of it, but she wasn't aware of how serious it was until she met Patricia, who is pretty terrible, but was more scared that Maggie would find herself in a situation she couldn't get out of if she didn't stop this warpath, it seemed to have completely taken over her thoughts. Once Patricia came into the picture, she was able to have a little more self control over her urges, and found a way to use this for good, by doing merc-work on the side for Brick, who in my HC became a fixer, specifically for Maelstromer's looking for work. Eventually the need to kill for revenge dwindled. She thanks Pat a lot for helping her see the problem, had she not met her, she'd probably be in a lot more trouble. But than again, this was at a time when her parent's were just killed and she just joined up with Maelstrom, she was finally able to be her true self and let herself get a little carried away. She's pretty soft now, LOL.

-

7. What's one way your OC has changed since you first came up with them?

I truly love talking about Maggie's big change since I made her last year. I made her to be this kind, sweet, caring and loving person who was all sunshine and rainbows, more of a corpo background, and I even paired her with Evelyn for a little bit. But I realized that's not who I really wanted Maggie to be. BIG Maelstrom fan here, and I decided I wanted to explore that lifepath a little more with Maggie, because being a Maelstrom enjoyer, I never really dabbled there before. So instead of completely wiping her old self off the table and pretending it never existed, I decided to make it a HC where her life did a 180 after the death of her adopted parents, and she was finally free of the person pretended to be growing up, to a person she knew she was all her life but could never be free. She breaks up with Evelyn, joins up with Maelstrom, avenges her parents, goes through a killing spree phase, meets Patricia, falls in love, Dum Dum becomes her bestie and they all live happily ever after! Haha.

A choice I'm very happy I made. Don't get me wrong, Maggie is still nice, she grew even after becoming a part of Maelstrom, she still has a soft side, it's just harder to get out of her.

19. How does your OC behave when enraged?

I love how all the questions go hand in hand xD

When she first joined Maelstrom, it was bad. She had no self control over her need to kill every Tyger Claw & Animal, who were the gangs involved in her adopted parent's murders. Enraged was an understatement, ever seen someone cry when their angry? Well this was Maggie tenfold. Even Dum Dum was worried, and even a little frightened. She had so much to learn, finally being unshackled from a life she didn't like, in order to please her parents. She knew they wanted the best for her, she grew up wanting to please them so much that she hid all of this rage, it was all pent up inside of her, when she was finally able to release it, she went wild.

Now that some time has passed, she's better and can handle her rage and anger in a way that won't scare off even the toughest of Maelstromer's. She does get the side-eye from Pat every once in a while though. xD
