Welcome to the Echo Festival!!
A lively fall harvest festival where people come to celebrate the last of the fresh produce, warm weather, and the echo flowers blooming!
The same farm monster as last year was once again paid to leave three of his fields empty in preparation for the festival. He’s made quite a pretty penny over this and has offered his land as well for the golden festival coming up in the spring.
Activities are:
Shopping! The majority of this years stands will be food. Preserves, fresh fruit and veg, drinks, pies, breads, you name it! The echo festival is the farm monsters domain!
There’s a large baking/cooking contest this year with several categories to compete in for different styles of food!!
The animal show: there will be a series of contests. Mostly for farm animals like cows, chickens, turkeys. But also a few pet breed contests, a large and small dog contest, cats, and snails. There’s also a pet talent show, no purebred papers needed for that one.
There is a small art gallery featuring woodwork and stone carvings this year!
An on going music festival by all the drink stands will be hosting a few local bands for the whole evening before and after the flour fight
No sparring sadly, but there is a weightlifting contest!
Sadly due to the early winter frost, the water fight and the swimming and diving competitions by the lake were cancelled.
And last but not least, the final event is the flour fight! Traditionally it has been a wine battle where the farm monsters used to fight with the cheap extra wine from the harvest, and in more recent years, was changed to a water fight to be more child friendly. However this year, the winter frost came early, and getting wet in such cold weather was deemed too dangerous. So the “battle” was changed from water to flour. Thin cloth Hackey-sacks filled with flour will be provided. Choked under the age 7 are recommended to sit this one out.
After the royals speech, every one who wants to join in will come to the field by the festival and duke it out with flour filled sacks. After this event, parents with kids go home while adults can stay for drinking and dancing till midnight if they want.
: echo flower colors meanings are:
Blue: friendship/platonic
Pale blue: looking for friendship
Pale green: child/youth
White: soulbonded or in a relationship
Purple: romantic interest
Pale purple: looking for love
Alrighty, the rules for this event are mostly the same:
Address the character you are talking to, and if you’re an anon, include your name in the ask so I know who I’m talking to.
Some of the characters are *ssholes. This does not reflect how I feel about you, I just wrote a d*ck character lol
There will also be extra side characters that might appear if you talk to the right person ;)
THIS EVENT IS FROM MONDAY TO SATURDAY! after Sunday I’ll delete any leftover asks and give some people a little summary of how it all went down. I do have classes still this week, but no work, so I’ll do my best to answer as many rps as I can each day

ive been here less and less, which kind of sucks because (ow) i love this character more than i could ever put into words but the rpc has been very very very dead recently and most of my friends have moved on. its sad because i almost made it to a year on this account :’(
if you still want to keep up with 683′s story (im trying to transition him away from ‘ ziggy stardust ’ and more into OC territory) i still draw/make content for him on twitter/insta/etc <:]
i love rping and writing this character a lot ! i really am going to try to answer to all my threads, so please allow me a bit of a hiatus while i just see how the rpc is going and stuff, and if not, you can always message me and ill give you my discord for private/plotted rps.
none of my threads have been dropped, i just need a teensy bit of a break and after i finish up this batch, whether or not ill ever accept new threads or i need to let this account rest in peace will be up to debate.
i love ziggy forever though so never forget
twitter -> reallytinydog insta -> reallytinydog artfight -> ticklepocket
#im writing this at night but queueing it for the morning !#hopefully a bit more time off and ill finish my current threads#i love tumblr rp but :\ it feels sad and dead here#oddly enough i made this account after coming across a graveyard of some old bowie blogs#people made accounts for TJN#the thin white duke all kinds of other bowie personas#there was even one other ziggy account albeit they never posted anything#so i wonder if in da future some other person will come to my graveyard bowie account and want to write ziggy#and i say go for it although you will never do it as well as i did i am god and you are not.#JUST KIDDING. unless#KEEP YOUR 'LECTRIC EYE ON ME ; queue

Misconceptions: Power and Politics (PT.1)
Sub-Title: Nobility
Hello, hello folks! Elstine here again to provide you all with another bit of information; granted this topic is a little more left-field than what we’re typically going over - such as armor and weaponry. However, with our recent recruitment for the business roleplay scene I thought this would be a good time to bring up some of my favorite subjects.
In particular the struggle of power between religious leaders(the Cloth), nobility, the military, and what I would say is often the most overlooked faction: the merchants.
((Disclaimer; I already know this won’t stop at least one angry message, but understand I am acknowledging this as largely an opinionated piece (Other than the large factual parts!). This is merely suggestions, things that perhaps folks have not considered. There is no right way to RP; do not take it as such. Suggestions are suggestions, not demands.))
You mention four factions, what exactly do they consist of and how are they important?
Well, I am glad you asked mythical stranger! Let's break it down together!
The Nobles
The Nobility generally consist of powerful, land-owning families or simply individuals related in some degree to the Head of State; whomever that might be, no matter the region - from east and west Europe through the Middle East, all the way to Asia... This is generally a consistent. Now, Nobility has this nice little thing where generally speaking those of Noble-Heritage own land. Land means they can plant crops - more than what they can consume, which means they can sell said crops... But that’s a lot of land to work, so why don’t we get a bunch of peasants to do the field work for us, give them some food to barely scrape by and -still- sell the rest of the food supplies! - That’s generally how Nobility/Feudalism got its roots. (Get it, farming, hah.) But, of course as time went on the Nobles got more and more wealthy and of course more and more land, so that’d create specialized goods such as wine, blacksmiths, stables, etc!
So now you have a small group of -very- wealthy individuals that make a living in owning land and having ‘lesser’ folk work for them. If all the Nobles banded together, or even a third or so - they could heavily damage the tax supply to the king, as well as hamper the supply of soldiers and various other supplies! Not to mention Nobles has trained men on retainer, or had enough coinage to pay off hefty mercenary armies - together, they could, and have opposed kings! Not to mention Nobles are typically in the Court of the Ruler; meaning they’re well informed and have influence.
The Military
A fantastic, if not basic example of the Military’s political power would simply be that of Julius Caesar. Essentially the idea is that if a General of the Military fights well and wins many battles with his men, essentially... Doing his job well! - The fear is that the men will gain more and more respect and more loyalty to the individual rather than the State itself; whom are at home doing their cushy day jobs. It’s not uncommon for Generals to rouse the men during King/Emperor deaths and try to storm the Capital and install themselves as the new Ruler; for Julius Caesar... This worked.
Throughout history you’ll see the best of Kings consistently swapping in and out generals to prevent the men from gaining too much loyalty to one individual; hopefully preventing any potential rebellion. But, I shouldn’t have to spell this out much further for you; very well trained men + power vacuum = not a good time!
The Cloth
Many, many, many times throughout history have Religious Heads and Heretics alike caused rebellions and outright wars with their influence. When the vast majority have the belief that one particular man is the -literal- voice of their omnipotent god, well... That person is going to have a huge influence. For example with the Tudors; the King of England wanted a divorce, couldn’t get one because the Pope denied it - so the King was like, well, we’ll just make our own religion! People -flipped- out, there was open rebellion, assassination plots were rampant, many people thought it was the -end- of England one of the world’s super-powers at the time. Another example comes from books involving Jesus Christ; the Romans knew the power of religion and they absolutely feared what would could potentially happen with yet another Religion springing up. More religions = more internal fightings = more military crackdowns = resentment to the government = rebellion; such as the Jewish Rebellion against the Romans (1st Jewish-Roman War.)
Not only did the Religious Heads have great power from their religious influence on the general public; but they were -loaded- tithes were common place for most major religions - Europe for example had entire -armies- built around their religion that were sworn to the Pope, the Teutonic Order became so powerful that they threatened to nearly conquer all of Poland - which, was a -major- feat for the time; something not even Russia (Russia didn’t exist technically.) or the Holy Roman Empire could handle.
The Merchants
Finally, the piece that you’ve all been waiting for! How in the world were the Merchants and Entrepreneurs of the world a Political Power? Very, very simple... They’re the ones making all the gold. The Merchants are going out there trading supplies, bringing back rare resources such as silk and spices that make not only the general public happy but also the Cloth, the Military -and- the Nobility who all purchased their supplies frooooom... The Merchants. Not only that but Trade Leagues, which were essentially large-scale, multi-national monopolies, could host entire fleets of ships to block trade ports, fight off invading armies, or perhaps provide much needed transport ships such as the case with the Crusaders and Venice! (First Crusade, and technically all the others!) The end all be all of wealth were the Merchants; in fact places like Florence, Venice, Ragusa, Genoa, and other major-trade ports often had their Nobility practically the same -as- the Merchants; there were very thin lines if they existed at all. If there was no trade, there was no taxes, if there were no taxes there was no gold, with no gold the State could not afford its soldiers, it could not afford to feed itself, etc! -- Some of the few times Nobility ever actually struggled was when Trade was cut off from them; because everyone suffers without trade - such is the power of Merchants! Not to mention, for example with Venice... Merchants in some cases could afford entire armies that rivaled -much- larger forces such as Venice VS Austria.
(We will break these factions down in more details in later parts!)
Oh, alright. So what does this have to do with anything?
Ah, another good question my invisible and quite possibly non-existent friend!
I think it’s important that we realize, notice, acknowledge that there is more in the political slogging fest then Knights and Nobles, and more over you don't need a popular T.V. show to make your particular field important or fun.
It’s important for those interested in the make-believe power dynamics to acknowledge and consider the abilities of the other factions around them; not just the Noble families worrying about Noble families. Thinking about it, if you are in House Bob and you are roleplaying a power-grab with House Ron; why would you not extend your resources and look outside for alternative solutions?
EX: Maybe House Bob should contact the local monopoly and have the vast majority of medical supplies delivered to their own House and starve out House Ron.
EX: Or maybe House Ron goes to the Cloth and convinces a High Priest that House Bob is working with the Legion and now their reputation is ruined and no one wants to work with them.
EX: Maybe House Bob gets the support of a Military Captain who is able to supply them with weapons, armors, trained soldiers, or superior military strategy.
The options are endless, and I for one think all our horizons can be expanded if we think outside our circle and try to think like all those famous characters we see on our T.V. It doesn’t always just have to be black and white, upfront conflict situation. That’s arguably not intrigue, it’s just... idle conflict.
Alright Elstine, but a lot of people don't want to be involved in intrigue or politics! Or some folks might meta-game or god-mod!
Well, meta-gaming and god-modding are the two primary issues I have personally faced throughout my various IC political careers and such things can definitely make stuff difficult as I am sure we have all experienced... When you claim to only have 20 soldiers, and 100 gold - while your opposition claims to have endless mounds of gold and armies that could solo Argus... Well, it makes things hard. But I suppose that is why I recommend thinking logically and realistically with such things; which we will hopefully get into.
In terms of folks not wanting to be involved in politics, I’d argue 90% of RPers do want to be involved in politics - even if they aren't fully aware of such. For example: what is the typical trope in the ageless D&D?
EX: Count Bob has Overthrown the King!
EX: Duke Ron swore allegiance to the Devil and had a Demon Army to take over the Kingdom!
EX: A Military General assassinated the King and has staged a coup!
To name a few, even WoW and the lore we all love is primarily political. Gul’dan sold out his people for self-gain. Arthus was out in the field to train and prepare himself to take his Father’s place. Illidan trade his reputation and respect to save his people, tired of being in the shadow of his respected brother. Don't even get me started on the Quel and Sin dorei.
Usually the moment you say the word politics- people begin to squirm; but people also squirm from the word ‘moist’ I mean really, what is so bad about moist, I say moist all the time. Moist.
My point being, if you engage people just as you would in any other scenario and just... Roleplay rather than mentioning politics, nine times out of ten no issue.
Alright, so why is logical and realistic thinking so important?
If you are fighting a foe that has no weakness, how can you hope to win? How can you celebrate a victory if there never are any? Even the most intense and brutal roleplayers don't want to lose -all- the time; it’s just... silly. Moreover, it’s even more so to try to -win- all the time.
If you are that type of person who has to win all the time; first ask yourself why. Then inquire, is it really winning if there was never a chance of losing? No, no it is not. It’s a security blanket, and quite frankly it is holding you back - and limiting others as well. I believe truly, the only folks that don't want to do political roleplay are those that refuse to lose.
What would House of Cards be if Frank just won over all the votes he needed all the time? Sure, he wins a lot and can pull some miracles - but he does lose, or consistently remain closer to the side of losing rather than winning. His loss doesn’t show weakness or a lack of skill, or experience rather it shows how good he is in his victories; as it shows that he is engaging people with their own minds and agendas.
Steamrolling through everything and everyone, giving yourself unlimited resources, and unbreakable defenses only shows disrespect to those you are Roleplaying an engagement with, and shows some serious self doubt.
If the banks can fail, if nations can fail, so can one Noble family.
Alright cool, this is all stuff I have not considered how can I get started?
(Tldr: Establish finite resources, establish goals, wants, and needs to fix resources. There is rarely a group that has -everything- in abundance.)
Well, what we have done for organizations in the past is look over what they claim to have as a family and add some realistic elements to it. If your House is claiming to be masters of Calvary, then it’d only make sense that said house has a stable of well-trained war-horses, which are insanely valuable. Horses were often traded to folks, and horses were highly valued; thus the armor.
Maybe your family is stinking rich, okay... but, why and how? You can't really be rich without reasoning, even Rockefeller had a business empire to amass his wealth; and as mentioned Nobility usually were Nobles to begin with because they owned land, when you own land you can make wine, grow wheat, make goods, etc - so figure out how and why you have wealth. I think you’ll find it'll at a flair and a depth to your roleplay; IE being well known for your supplies of wheat or lumber.
When making deals with Noble families there were many things on the table for grabs. Land, resources, soldiers, training, soldier gear, marriage, horses, land, maybe some land, boats, trade routes, etc. There are many examples and many things that can be done when negotiating, but the only way two sides can negotiate in an entertaining and thoughtful way is by having both sides having finite resources.
It is -vital- I would say for any group to have needs due to their finite resources.
EX: Maybe you have a lot of gold, but your lands had the plague so you need troops.
EX: Maybe you have a lot of restless soldiers and you need gold; hire them out to another force.
EX: Maybe you're in need of transporting goods, but you have no ships.
EX: Maybe you have too many ships and not enough trade; so lease your ships out.
The key is establishing finite resources, and trying to fill said resources. Fix your wants and needs as any character would; most simply default to gold. Gold does not fix all the problems.
Many businesses want to hire people but can't find anyone to work.
Okay, okay - you mention winning; that seems like a bad thing to encourage!
In most cases, yes. The goal of RP is not to ‘win’ - becoming the most popular kid in WrA isn’t the end goal, or at least it shouldn’t be for anyone. Winning in roleplay is a dangerous mindset; but there are other ways of winning.
The way we win, the way I win, and the way I encourage you all to win is rather simple. All parties involved in the roleplay, enjoy and enjoyed the roleplay experience, with no regrets or feeling forced moments. When everyone is having fun with the roleplay -that- is winning. At least on an OOC level.
On an IC level, it is important to realize that losing is normal, and only fair. Most guilds, groups, or individuals will simply start to avoid you if you decide your character, group, or guild is always the top dog - unless there is some odd agreement going on.
It is only fair and right for everyone, every group, and every guild to have the spotlight or victory; unless all agreed upon with all the parties for story elements. But, perhaps next time offer a storyline allowing the losing side a victory.
Alrighy folks, thank you very much for the read, reblog, and likes - if you have any feedback, comments, questions, suggestions, please leave me a message!
There will be additional parts in the future hopefully delving into the Factions on an individual basis.
Thanks again!

dukeoftheblackstar :) || Also, I've responded.
♕ ▌◜【 meme 】 – ( accepting )
My Opinion on;
Character in general: I have a lot of opinions on David Bowie, but the basis of them all can be summed up in one sentence: He was the coolest man to have ever lived. Every persona was great, every action, beautiful, and the man behind all of these wacky and lovely people was utterly genius. I haven’t dabbled too much into David Bowie’s thin white duke phase (not yet), but I’m positive it was wonderful. David Bowie will always be one of my favorite men, and I knew of him before I even knew what a George Harrison was (I’m actually not kidding--I loved Bowie before I could even begin to tell you all the Beatles’ names, let alone their stories). How they play them: Wonderfully. More than wonderfully, to be honest, but I find it a bit hard to express that in words. Often times they do it so well I find it intimidating, which is a very good thing. They seem to be inside the brain of their muse & they grasp a delightful understanding of how their muse would respond to a multitude of situations. I love reading their portrayal. The Mun: We’ve only interacted a handful of times, but each one has been a good one. They seem so, so, so kind & beyond their kindness, they are incredibly talented, as well. I would love to talk to them more and wrack their brain about a plethora of subjects someday.
Do I:
RP with them: Yes!Want to RP with them: YESSSSS!
What is my;
Overall Opinion: A wonderful Bowie blog, with a creative and kind mun. Overall, one of the best writers around!!!
**Note: Mun’s answer are all to be completely honest. Don’t send url if you don’t want brutal honesty

that one episode of the simpsons ( or movie idk they all jus blur into 1 tbh ) where ned cares for bart and leaves him some hot chocolate but does the most with it when he adds whipped cream, freshly shaved nutmeg, a chocolate wafer, a marshmallow, and then broils the marshmallow ? deadass sybil
alternatively, she’s also the mom friend who sees her friends not getting enough field time and will scream at the coach to get them off the bench and start insulting jimmy who hasn’t made a goal all game and end up starting a fight in the bleachers with jimmy’s mom
plot ideas: her employees who work at the cafe mayhaps, business rival or something :P, friends w benefits, somebody who started a rumour that she’s a funked up horse girl and now she hates them for it, somebody she always trynna get to know but they are just not having it but she loves dissecting them anyways, somebody she sees gettin hurt and immediately her mom senses start to tingle and she’s there with her dukes up
townes cressida ciurcovich !
convinces herself she grew up normal but doesn’t tell anybody her dad up and left when she was young and her mom was emotionally distant so she had to raise herself growing up
cries way too easily over anything and everything
trusts and forgives too fricken easily...... somebody funked her over and left her shattered but they wanna grab coffee sometime ? say no more. name the time and place and she’s there
cries over dead boy bands and is always the bihtc who longingly looks out the window and says “i grew up in the wrong generation....”
lives for vintage 70s and 80s fashion. honestly would shove a thrift store up her ass if she could
plot ideas: somebody her damaged ass follows around all the time, cute as shti bffs who townes can always cry to when her day’s been a disaster, roommate pals who always have movie marathons OR ALTERNATIVELY ! roommates who fricken hate each other and always get on the others nerves, memestagram co-owner, somebody who stabbed her in the fricken back and it’s the one (1) person she’ll never forgive, sugar pal minus the sugar tbh they jus buy her stuff and she gets mandy to search up nsfw rp icons to send
ridley finnick lajeunesse !
invented childhood angst ig
lived with his deadbeat mom in a trailer park and always heard the empty promises from his dad that one day he’d come and pick him and his younger brother up and take them away to live with him but that never happened !
grew up into a complete fricken miscreant
while his mom was high out of her mind a good amount of the time he had to care for his brother and himself all he could and in the end, had to turn to some shady business
grew up stealing everything tbh he probably has a lift blog
had some shady cops in his town..... sheriff was a crook with a vendetta to lock up ridley but could never get away with it, despite how often he framed him for some crimes
one day he comes home from doing whatever the funk and finds his little brother is gone and all his stuff is packed up and when his mom wakes up from her drunken slumber he finds out that his dad showed up and took his lil brother with him </3
after his brother left and he spent a miserable year trying to track him down to no avail, he decided he had nothing holding him back anymore so he got a couple of friends together and robbed a bunch of stores all through arizona until he had enough to run off and come here to london
fricken loves 2 make bannock and brings it to every get together
depressed as shit and if he isn’t being a fricken menace on society, he’s wallowing in his room alone probably having himself a noice pity party
plot ideas: ride or die who does some shady things w him, somebody he considers like a fricken sibling to fill that hole in his heart, somebody who caught him in the midst of robbing some place but stayed quiet and tbh we could build off this, a peep who saved him after he got his ass kicked in some sketched out back alley and now he feels in debt, lowkey hookup who always get together but no strings attached
rocío guadalupe pérez !
i hate myself erldjfg she’s based 100% off brittnay matthews from mpgis
grew up with rich ass parents who never knew how to say no to their baby girl and of course she took advantage of that because why the frick not ?
turned into an absolute terror but punishment ? don’t know her xx
loves picking fights and making life hell for everyone. honestly she’s lost count of the amount of times she’s been expelled for starting a fricken riot in the cafeteria or something
came to this one high school in her junior year and was walking a thin line on being suspended when she was approached by some other kid and made a pact. they’d keep her from getting suspended if she’d bitch out anybody who tried them ( aka rite here ) *
came to london for school but mostly because she was getting bored of california and needed a new place to terrorize
plot ideas: * her mackenzie zales aka the bff who tones her down and keeps her in check to make sure she doesn’t fall back into her demon phase, one sided friendship ? they swear they’re friends but rocío is always annoyed by them, somebody she spreads a rumour about and attempts to ruin their life, an old friend who funked her over and she went batshit in retaliation and got expelled for it, an ex who started a rumour that she gave second rate handies, somebody she looks up to and is always trynna impress, roommate mayhaps ! we could decide what terms they’re on :P

I've always wondered if you have hcs for Duke that is true to you as the writer. Care to share?
I've put quite a lot in me in the Thin White Duke mainly because I feel like it made sense and it'd be a good personal touch to stay connected with my muse.
I cannot stress enough how I find dirt/soil atrocious. I mean, I'm not a bitch about it and make a scene, but all I can say is you would not get me to sit on the ground even if you put a blanket over it in some avant-garde park. It's a high NO unless the circumstance is inevitable.
I love the cold ♥
I have a strong affinity for rings. I like wearing some but half the time, I find it therapeutic to just know that they're all pretty in a little box. This is why you don't get to see the Duke bear rings unless it was a special occasion, but would mention a habit he does when stressed; re-organize the ring box.
Clutter and messiness is an absolute mood-killer/game-changer. If you make a mess it's okay as long as you have shown the intent of cleaning it or is very apologetically sensitive over it.
Clawing. I tend to claw at my skin when I'm severely stressed.
Mild cleaning. If it's clean and I clean it again it makes us very happy.

Didn't you write as Jareth from Labyrinth? Why not play him along with Duke?
| I did but very selectively and privately. I have a mean Jareth, so I don't put him up for display. I think my most tamed muse is the Duke because he is actually pretty descent compared to the Priest and how I portray Jareth.
Ugh. My gae boys.
Fun fact! I wrote as Jareth before I made the Duke. I also have this story of incorporating both of them as if a parallel divide but I never had a partner who'd stick with it.

your Jango Fett posts and replies are cute lol. why not rp as him? you seem to know a lot about the character and the fandom is active
|Hi, love!
I believe I've answered this yesterday and I tried looking for the thread, but I couldn't find it. Essentially, I have a fear of butchering a character that I am deeply in love with. Hence why I never attempted to play or write him as well as David Bowie as a muse as opposed to one of Bowie's muses, the Thin White Duke.
I also would want to be the receiving end since it would be a thrill to write with a muse that you fancy.

mun-x-muse kinks?
I'm assuming this is related to yesterday's headcanons I imply on the Duke that also applies to me as opposed to my own kink on the Thin White Duke himself, David Bowie.
Daddy Kink.
I think this stems from the fact that my love for anything father/dad related is pretty fucked up.
I love the fluff of being a daddy and overall protector, spoil you cause your mom said no, carry and toss you in the air, teach you to play sports, dad jokes, take and pick you up from school in a vintage car trying desperately to remain that 'dad's so cool' vibe, to the take you down the aisle/be your best man at your wedding (someone needs to adopt me as their dad in rp because this is something of a dream come true?), or beat the shit out of your crappy ex-partner... Oh goodness, I can go all day so I'll stop here.
If you've been around me for a time, you'd know I'm a sucker for angst. The painful, the better. With society's demand of fathers being these stoic, emotionless beings who do nothing but serve and protect, the restraint of emotions and being deprived of right to be emotional is a kink (not necessarily sexual, but I use the word kink loosely).
And of course, daddy in that sense. I'm power-starved with my muses. I love making them take control, be authoritative, spoil and set them lose with everything they'd want and more and slowly yank the chain back and make daddy feel good.
Poetry Kink.
I shouldn't really be sharing this but if you'd read to David, you'd have his heart. If you'd write poetry about him/to him, you'll send him to the moon as you would me.
Put on a show for him? Be as dramatic as you would in a play in silly medieval garments or even your pj's? It's the cuddle monster for you. But surely, he'd be proper about it.
Recite an excerpt from a book, you can get him to stop just about doing anything and lay with you.
Faff over new book/story/poem interests and he'd indulge. Lovingly listen to you like you're the only one who matters.
Just two for today, I think.

|[ Hello. ]|
I think I've developed some form of trauma over events that lead to me inconsistent absences, but I can't really let Tumblr go. This has been my home for many years and hopefully, it still can be.
If anyone's out there still, beep.
I might do a bit of a clean-up on this account in preparation for Moonage Daydream in September. I would love to meet new and old Bowie writers.
I might keep to a small group in terms of who I write with for a while. I think I've got my eyes set on writing as Paimon for Helluvaboss.
You know my type; cold, careless, single gay dads.
¯_(ツ)_/¯.

Craft or Death.
|| I need to write. Preferrably with someone to have that bit of human interaction to lull my will to live into fake pretense so I won't keep thinking of death. I'm too stressed af to function, so it's either craft or death.
Let's write actual stories with decent plots and twists. I'm game with anything as long as it won't be a redundant cycle of smut and romance cliches.
I'm tempted to write as the Duke again or have Lana a go. I want realistic scenes like rehearsals and collaboration, guitar tuning, and disputes.
The desire to write as a proper groupie is much needed. I'm open.
Might keep the thing with Lana since she has one thread that I really enjoy. As for the Duke..? Maybe a clean slate, idk.

I'm in dire need of some serious angst, canon environment of a 1976 dark - themed thread that can put up with mind games, lengthy paragraphs, and uncomfortable scenes.
Hmu.

// Inspite of a very slow notebook, I've managed to get all my replies done yesterday. I have @belladonna-of-thraneal left for a reply and starter for @bluuxhalcyon @marilyngoddamnmonroe and possible plot ideas for @sepiacasket once I've decided who to use between Lana and the Duke.
Anyone else want a starter while I'm feeling typish today?
