#also the “it was your url attached to it” is for some reason a hilarious statement OIDFASJFAOISDA

[an-annyeoing-writer]

i read bloodline ch 2 (very excellent btw and im veryyyyy excited to see more.. when you wrote how bh felt so safe with reader tending to his ankle and wanted to stay like that my heart exploded a little ngl) so i checked more of your baek tag and found that you wrote derision???!?! i have read and re read that countless times but never realized it was your url attached to it oh my god. i love that story so much more than words can convey TT i know it's 4 years old so other people may have already said or asked this (in which case i apologize and feel free to ignore this heh) but that plot is so intriguing i would definitely be interested in learning more about what their past relationship/the things they went through together that bh mentions were or what happens next etc literally ANYTHING whether it's a part 2, drabbles, blurbs, just you giving more info, really anything LOL, i just love that concept soooooooo dearly and you write it so well hhhgngn 💓

Good god, I'm just 🥺 I was literally just melting more and more with every word and now I'm basically a sentient puddle 🥺🥺

Jesus christ, thank you so much, this means a LOT. Like this is so motivating and inspiring to see someone this excited about my work, and like, while it is great when someone praises you as a writer, having someone refer to particular fics feels just so personal and you basically just made my day with this message 🥺🥺🥺

Also, Derision is one of my favorites too! I always try to recreate the vibe in some of my fics because just... it hits jackpot for me too LOL If you enjoy this kinda stuff btw, I strongly recommend Experiment series by @marshmallow-phd. It's a very similar concept as in the plot itself, and it's by one of the greatest writers too!!!!!!

As for my writing, in the case you enjoy that unsettling character vibe, you may enjoy Sweet lies or Unhealthy obsession.

But!!! Kind of a spoiler since I didn't mention it before- I have one series I am working long-term on but haven't teased/released yet, that also has this Lucky One vibe. It's not exactly the same kind, but I feel like it's going to cater to your needs as well. Although I'm not sure when I would be releasing it since it's a bit more complex of a plot and I don't want to release it before I make sure all threads match well.

Either way, thank you very much again... This is just very important and heartwarming to receive messages like this. Just, love you so much. Thank you ❤️❤️❤️

The answer is probably obvious given your username but who is your favorite twst character? ❤ Guess I am more asking what you love about Riddle lol

haha, well, i will say that riddle is practically tied with idia as my favorite! idia was a character who i literally decided was my fave at first sight, but then i came to love riddle more and more while i was playing through the story for the first time. the idiashroud url is taken by someone who isn't even using it😔 and this url was, shockingly, not taken when i first got into twst, so i took it the second i found out it was available. but, yeah, i do love riddle a lot!! i've got two plushies of him and two other pieces of adorable fanmade merch i'll share below, and i'd love to get some more riddle merch. i especially really wanna buy his nendoroid when i'm able to afford it.

^ the aforementioned riddle merch plus some other random things i have on a little corkboard in my room, lol.

as for what i love about him... honestly, what drew me to him when i first started twst was that i just thought he was hilarious. one of the first vignettes i ever read was the one where he and floyd are in the library and he gets really pissed about floyd teasing him and making fun of his height. and, well, one of my favorite fictional characters of all time just happens to be another short little nerd with a red color scheme and a hot temper who would have to be held back from kicking my ass if he knew i was calling him a short little nerd (it's edward elric from fullmetal alchemist, lol). so i got attached to him based on that and also because i thought the way he acted during book 1 was just really funny and entertaining to watch. i also figured there must be some sort of Reason behind it that i couldn't wait to find out, and then the reason we got really tugged at my heartstrings and, again, reminded me of some of my favorite characters in other media.

beyond that, i really love his design, for one thing. especially his heart-shaped ahoge which has got to be one of the cutest character design choices i've ever seen in my life. i love that he's an animal lover who goes out of his way to check on the hedgehogs even when he doesn't have to, and how excited he gets about discovering the joys of puzzle solving in the endless halloween event. i love how protective he is of his dormmates and how much faith he shows in them after book 1. like, he has such sweet interactions with ace in fairy gala remix and with deuce in glorious masquerade. and i love the development he goes through!! i made a post on this a while back, but riddle along with vil is one of the only overblotters who really apologized and took immediate steps to make up for what he'd done, which shows a lot of genuine maturity and responsibility on his part. there's also a chapter of the twst anthology manga where he's really anxious and frustrated with himself for still instinctively getting so angry at rule violations, and ace ultimately convinces him that he doesn't have to be so hard on himself and helps him relax. i love that. i love that he's still struggling with unlearning what he was taught all his life, because recovery and growth aren't always linear, but he's trying the best that he can now that he knows he was wrong.

so yeah this got longer than i originally planned lol but basically i just think riddle is really cute and funny and has a great character arc. to end this off here's an image of two riddle plushies i wish i had because i absolutely adore this style.

[septembersghost]

my beloved @fancykraken tagged me! 💖

1. Why did you choose your url?

so, i've technically had six urls through my tumblr history, but the most consistent and important one sits in quiet mausoleum-like reverence because i was only going to be here temporarily (lol), and didn't want to reclaim it, and didn't feel right going back to that blog. alas, here we are. (and now there's an added weight to it because we exist in a world without stephen sondheim.)

when i secretly made this blog in early 2020, i was on a Romantics kick and had borrowed "melodious" from Keats in Ode to a Nightingale (thou, light-winged Dryad of the trees/In some melodious plot/Of beechen green, and shadows numberless/Singest of summer in full-throated ease) because i wanted something music-themed, and "ghost" obviously from my constant theme of being a ghost girl who is herself a haunted house, but it never felt "right," and for some reason i didn't like the way ~melodious~ looked the longer i sat with it, so i switched it to "septembers," because almost all of my urls have begun with an -S, and because it's my birth month, and tied subtly to dean (my birthday being pilot anniversary day on the 13th, then the significance of september 18th). i am quite attached to september in general outside of that, and thus septembersghost felt very much like an accurate depiction of me.

2. Any side blogs?

not here, no, though i have a couple of urls saved despite the fact that i'd never use them.

3. How long have you been on tumblr?

off and on since 2011.

4. Do you have a queue tag?

the very boring "q," i used to always have cute personalized ones (almost all were musical theatre lyric-based) but was too lazy to do that here asdsajkfdh

5. Why did you start your blog in the first place?

i started my original blog literally because of bonnie, whomst did tag me in this post, and because so many people from LJ were migrating here (hilariously, i also started my LJ in 2004 because of bonnie...alexa, play "every breath you take." BLAME HER FOR MY INTERNET PRESENCE! 😂). this one i started in 2020 "just in case"/to lurk (interestingly, for taylor and penny dreadful and better call saul, not at all for spn), but then 15x18 happened and i had...a bit of a hard time...and realized i couldn't handle enduring the last two episodes of that alone after suffering and engaging for fifteen years. (little did i know how MUCH i wouldn't be able to handle it?) so i crept back to spend those final weeks here and never left.

6. Why did you choose your icon/pfp?

because i love her and she IS SO IMPORTANT TO ME and i wanted to mix it up a little. something yet remains.

7. Why did you choose your header?

"are there still beautiful things?" is like...the eternal beating question of my heart. seven in general, with the themes of haunting and memory and the sorrow in nostalgia and grief in love and stories being passed on even when you can't recall every moment or detail. that's my whole essence. also, pink.

8. What’s your post with the most notes?

that quote of jennifer carpenter's...you don't understand. she was talking about haunting HIM? but now she haunts ME. the intensity of the irony now considering that i posted it for my own reference, it was the very first dexter-related post i made here (i didn't even have a tag for the show! i didn't think i'd ever be able to watch that show AGAIN! i'm happy i was wrong, paul rudd look at us.gif), i thought it would be relevant to like three people so i didn't source it in the caption, and the gothic horror tumblrinas got hold of it and it took on a life of its own. i like to pretend that revival never happened and was a very poorly constructed bad dream, and i have to ignore the rest of that interview by extension, but girlie really tapped into the other side when she said that.

9. How many mutuals do you have?

i have no idea but 💛💛💛

10. How many followers do you have?

354, i was at like 395 but then the great bot clearance happened. i am teensy, but once upon a time i had over 1200 and that was a lot. seeing the number bon put on this gives me anxiety omg

11. How many people do you follow? 133

12. Have you ever made a shit post?

maybe? i'm not sure what qualifies as that.

13. How often do you use tumblr a day?

sometimes a lot, even if i'm only here for like five minutes at a time. sometimes i'm not here at all and it's just my queue running ghostily for me, it depends how i'm feeling illness-wise from day to day.

14. Did you ever have a fight/argument with another blog?

an actual fight, no. minor disagreements, yes, being falsely accused of something and having to defend myself to complete strangers, yes, and the zany hate messages which were all one-sided beef from anons who think hating on my faves is a power trip? 🥴

15. How do you feel about the ‘you need to reblog’ posts?

Hate them even if they’re something that is important and with good information. If you add that then I will not reblog them. <- this. it's an unnecessary guilt trip and distracts from whatever information or message is being given.

16. Do you like tag games?

I do! Even if I forget to complete them I still appreciate being thought of. <- this too!!! 🥺

17. Do you like ask games?

i never do them because i'm shy and anxious and also think no one will send any of them to me lol

18. Which of your mutuals do you think is tumblr famous?

i don't know if any of them are tumblr "famous"? (are any of you secretly internet celebrities and holding out on me?! 👀) but one of the nice things about tumblr is how that absolutely does not matter here. we can support each other and enjoy one another's content whether we have 12 followers or 12,000 and that's cozy. you're all stars to meeee

19. Do you have a crush on a mutual?

i do not, but i'd hold your hands and kiss your foreheads and wrap you in blankets no matter what.

20. Tags!

i am not tagging anyone because this is long and i talk too much, but please feel free to take it and tag me in it if you do so that i can see your answers! 🥰

@melancholicmonologue my dear Mara my dear sweet Mara I feel like you would do well with Eren he’d be an entire hype squad all the time?? He would literally hype you up doing anything, wearing anything, just casually makin mozzarella sticks and he’d be like WOW THE BEAUTY THE TALENT WOW. And I would love to see that.

@bluebellhairpin (I wanted to say Eren just to be a prick 🤣 but honestly if you and him were a thing it would be SO entertaining to watch, just you constantly kicking his ass and fighting and oof)

Ok ok in all seriousness for you Nemo for some reason I get Reiner vibes?? You exude such a badass energy and that just makes me imagine Reiner realizing and being like “oh? Oh shit? Nemo is a badass”. That makes me happy to think about. Also I just KNOW you could take the man. Ok he would be like “NO U LISTEN HERE” and you’d be like “did u just raise ur voice to me?” And he’d be like “o shit uh no I didn’t I’m sry”.

@commanderserwin U GET ERWIN. AS YOU ALWAYS DO. GO CLAIM YO MANS BEE GET EM. HONESTLY it matches it fits. your way with words would make him give you heart eyes and your way with bodies and muscles bc of school wink wonK mans would try to beat around the bush asking you to help him out with a sore spot or something and you’d be like “get your ass over here” Erwin would be the luckiest man.

@rainteslerrrr I have and always felt an Annie vibe for you, you’re so sweet and I can just imagine Annie looking away with a small blush on her cheek hiding being her bangs bc you did something cute. And you know she would watch anime with you. She’d pretend to not be interested but will always queue up the next episode.

@proseofpandemonium honestly HONESTLY ok ok Bertholdt??? Mans would be nervous and soft and quiet, but I know you would take charge and he would just sit and listen to you talk or chat, or the two of you would just sit while you draw or write. And he would love cats and I know how you feel about cats!!! He would definitely volunteer at a shelter and keep bringing home cats he gets attached to and you two would foster cats as well?? And it’s just...cats everywhere.

@starstruckkittensweets OKAY HEAR ME OUT but Moblit??? Your shenanigans with your roommates are absolutely hilarious and I can just imagine Moblit being over and just like “wow this is so relaxing”. I just know he would be super supportive in everything you do.

@acekou I.....is it bad that I wanna put u with like...Erwin bc GODDD THE THINGS U WOULD DO TO HIM oop. The mental imagine I have rn is NOT ok.

Starts getting lowkey clingier and will keep up with the late night losing of mind screaming sessions with no problem.

OK I THINK IM DONE these were all...knee-jerk thoughts because I think those first impressions are there for a reason. AGAIN pls lemme know if you’re uncomfortable in any way or want me to take you out for any reason!

[chorusnihili]

I'd love to hear more about the development of your Gaster! :D

BACKSTORY ASK MEME 1. How did you first come up with your muse’s backstory, if you did at all? Continued from here Also asked by @alagaster 

So I left off with the question of just how Gaster's soul ended up in pieces.

I’m actually going to detour at the moment and say that it was around that point that I had decided to make the blog.  I had a vague beginning and an ending, and usually that’s not enough for me to want to start, but I was excited, I had a lot of fun, so I went for it.

Honestly, one of the first things I need to have before I even think of making a blog is a good url.  Urls are super important to me, and generally, whether or not I think of a good one is a key factor in whether or not I actually make the blog.

But in this case, I was too eager to start and I actually just threw together chorusnihil so I could get started on the pages.  The thought process remained the same--the chorus is from Greek plays, the group of characters that narrate the actions occurring in the play.  nihil is Latin for nothing--and I later changed it to nihili, which is Genitive, to roughly make the “chorus of nothing” or “nothing’s chorus,” a reference to the fact that the guy wiped himself out of history, and so there’s no protagonist to narrate.  This was supposed to be a temporary URL, but I got attached to it, for reasons I’ll get to later.  

(And really, isn’t a roleplay blog a modern chorus in it’s own way?)

Also there’s the phonetic pun-- CORE-us, anyone?

So I threw together a lot of the basic bios.  Most of the stat pages are really bland, most of the guts of the story comes from the hidden details, most of which were added on later.  

Something that came up around this point was Gaster’s relationship to Asgore.  A lot of fanon pictures them as really close.  A lot of fanon also portrays Gaster as Gaster as desperately wanting to retake the surface, which...as mentioned previously, my Gaster just, wasn’t into.  

So it sort of put Gaster in between Asgore and Toriel--he wasn’t happy about the decision to go to war with humanity, but he wasn’t going to abandon everyone, even if he did become really reclusive.  

I thought about the idea of the human souls, and I knew that Gaster would immediately hate the idea of working with them.  And that was convenient, too, since it allowed me to further separate Gaster and Alphys’s work.  At first, it was just a heavy disagreement.  The idea that Gaster killed Asgore accidentally came a great deal later, but it honestly served to be a rather critical piece of the story. 

The design of the DT Extractor and Sans and Papyrus were also very vague concepts at this point. 

Revisiting the idea of his fall.  We know from the canon dialogue that he fell into his own invention and that he was scatted across space and time.  

The CORE is the common culprit and it was what I had chosen, too.  But how?  How could an energy source... do that? 

So the idea occurred to me that maybe--maybe that was exactly as it was designed to do.  After all, even in the real world, we have power plants that operate by ripping apart molecules.  So... magic.  Why not magic?  A machine that derives power out of ripping apart magical energy.

And monsters are made out of magical energy.  

Falling into that sounds like a very grisly fate, indeed.      

The idea of how he got erased from reality isn’t one I really have solidified.  G has a couple of theories, and I’m willing to roll with either of them, but, really?  I’m not super interested in making a hard reason for it.  Namely to adapt to other versions of fanon other muns might have. 

Essentially, the theories say that the CORE destroying him released so much energy that it tore a hole in the Determination that pushes the timeline forward, thus allowing the Void to enter and merge with his soul.  

From there, either, 

A., his Determination very briefly was larger than that of the Timeline, and he himself invoked a Reset, but given that he was outside of the timeline at the moment, it was corrupted and only erased certain parts rather than fully resetting.   I think that this was the original theory that I used in the original RP.  

B., the Void acted as a corrective force trying to correct the hole in the timeline.  In doing so, it erased Gaster from the reality, thus replacing the existing timeline with a new one in which certain things never happened.  

C., something involving the power of Rewrite that Gaster has from the duality of Determination and Void.

D., something else entirely.  

And so we had the scattered Unbound Gaster. 

Which, funfact, the name Unbound Gaster for the form was supposed to be temporary, as well.  It’s a reference to Unbound Hoopa for Pokemon.  (Which is why Provoked Form Gaster isn’t called Unbound Form!)

Within the original RP that I developed most of this lore, Refused Gaster didn’t exist.  In fact, that roleplay ended with Gaster’s permanent death--and being permanently forgotten to the world.  A choice he intentionally made because the damage he did to the timeline by falling into the CORE was still present and only getting worse, and the only way to fix it was to allow his Soul to come together and pass on properly, thus allowing the damage to mend.

It was sad.  I cried.  I got emotional.  

I got attached to a traumatic asshole character I literally had for four days.  

Somewhere in here, I began to think about the origins of Gaster.  Like, way way way in the past.  Some people have Gaster being actively involved in the war, but it didn’t work for my portrayal, of having him be so afraid of humans and the surface.  So for it to work out, I had him really young for the war, really young when everyone got driven underground.  

I killed off his parents because ......

Frankly I didn’t want to design them :|

There’s a lot of varying opinions and interpretations about skeleton monsters, and it’s a section of the fandom I’ve decided to stray away from for now.  

But I didn’t want the loss to be traumatic.  Gaster’s been through a lot already, and I have personal vendettas against characters who solely consist of trauma after trauma.  

So I decided to make the loss very distant--he’s aware he probably had parents, or maybe he came to be some other way--but he doesn’t remember them, there’s no tragic “my parents were killed in front of me,” it’s simply something he didn’t have, and something he never needed given the nature of monsters to be kind and caring.  

...

But it felt like it was missing something.

So I started to toy around with this idea of a mentor, one who played the role of a father-figure, one who would plant the seeds to give Gaster the appreciation of science and knowledge.  Someone who could take this lost and terrified boy and start to turn him into the intelligent and steady doctor we end up with.  

Then came the problem of how he and this mentor would actually meet; Gaster’s scar proved to be a convenient excuse, plus it gave me a backstory for that, as well.  A few humans attacked him and delivered the injury, and Gaster’s mentor found the wounded boy and took care of him.  

The mentor is meant to be a vague entity, and you can view this in action in this memory.  (Only partially because I didn’t want to name them.)  Unfortunately, as per the nature of characters created post hoc, their fate was already sealed.  I made the choice to cut their influence on Gaster’s life short.  

(If they were around longer, who knows?  Maybe they could have prevented some of the stupider things Gaster has done.  Maybe they could have changed fate.  But...  as we’ll get to, everything happened exactly as it had to.)  

Again, I made it a very distant loss.  It’s a rather simple conclusion that not every monster would be happy vacating the surface--Gaster’s mentor had lived there their entire life.  It was their home, they were not leaving, even upon threat of death.  And so it was a bittersweet parting, but one with closure, and Gaster said his farewells and departed to the Underground.  

Honestly, what I find really shocking about this character is just how intensely he wants to do good.  I mean, I’m no stranger to good characters, but few of my characters push it as far as Gaster does, and how quickly that feeling came to me, considering he started in the original roleplay as a ruthless asshole bastard more than willing to fuck over and torture a bunch of children just for a chance at being whole again.  

Most of Gaster’s early life in the Underground found in this post was written on the spot as I wrote that post, so it came really late.  

I still find it hilarious that he used to work in therapy.  You’re well aware you need therapy you fucking bastard.  Quit denying it.  

So, revisiting the idea of Gaster and Asgore.  I do like the idea of them being close, and Gaster even calls Asgore his best friend.  The declaration of war put a huge strain on the relationship.  

I originally thought about the idea of him accidentally killing Asgore for shits n giggles.  At my heart I am indeed an angst gremlin, so I was just thinking about what an alternate timeline where that happened might be like.  After all, Gaster’s angry, Asgore’s full of guilt, with the way monster magic works, it wouldn’t be too far of a stretch to think that it could happen.  

But the more I thought about it, the more it fit eerily well.  The guilt gave Gaster a reason to create Sans (and later Papyrus) as part of his belief in Karma (creating a life to replace the life he took) and to look into Alphys’s research into Determination enough to create the blueprints for the DT Extractor; both of these things were things that I couldn’t otherwise really fit into his storyline.  

And finally...

His declining mental state and despair over the concept of the DT Extractor was what led to him being distracted enough to make such a critical mistake and fall into the CORE.  

And given that the timeline changes when he falls, I realized that...  I could have this happen, and the current timeline be unaffected.  

Now, given that I said that I wanted to avoid more trauma in Gaster’s life, this decision might seem contradictory.  But, it also served a very important point--Asgore returning to life, that mistake being fixed upon his fall gave Gaster something to hold onto.  Something that made his fate not as awful as it otherwise would have been.  A small piece of solace in hell.  

Plus, Gaster’s guilt at the incident caused him to resign as Royal Scientist, further allowing him and Alphys to have their separate stories. 

And pretty much everything snapped together at that point.  Really, strangely well.  I joked before on this blog if I’m really the one writing it.

If Gaster had not killed Asgore, he would have never created Sans and Papyrus, he would have never created the DT Extractor blueprints; if he did not create the blueprints, he would have never been distracted enough to fall into the CORE, if he never fell into the CORE, the blueprints would have never ended up with Alphys, she could have never created Flowey, and if Flowey was never created, he could have never used the souls to break the barrier and the True Pacifist ending would have never come to pass.  

It all happened exactly as it had to.

It feels oddly poetic, given the way Undertale works.  

In some ways, it’s cruel.  Gaster regularly struggles with the idea that for his people to be happy, he had to literally be wiped out of existence.  But in other ways, it’s a comfort--for at least he knows that his suffering wasn’t for nothing.  That there was a purpose--that even if he had to be erased, he played a vital role in ensuring his people found victory. 

Oh.  One final note...  In finalizing this story, you may notice that Gaster follows a classic pattern.  We have a hero, who’s mostly good, but through his own flaws makes a tragic mistake and seals his own grim fate.

It’s called a tragedy and they’re common in Greek plays.

What was that about a chorus again?

I think that’s just about every important point I could cover.  That being said, if you couldn’t tell, this is a very fascinating topic to me, so if you have any further questions or need any clarifications, feel free to send them in.

*frantically swipes at the floor where your url is sliding because well in lieu of Curling being a thing at the Olympic winter games this year and... stuff*

Roleplaying/Writing

My favorite muse(s) of theirs and why:

Can’t tell :D I don’t really like picking favourites because there’s something special about each muse and welp I’d rather just write with as many of his as I can than think about too long whom I like the most out of the bunch. But I can say that at the moment, I am most attached to Junhyung because I’ve been interacting with him the longest. Besides, I wanna look after him ;w;

My favorite interaction/thread of theirs:

Nope, can’t pick one :3 I like both interactions (I mean I could say freaking thank you for the one with Junhyung because it’s so interesting and it really helps me for Axra and honestly I love it but the other we just started sounds so funny and well).

My thoughts on their unique characterization/interpretation of their muse(s):

Hmm, I love the way he writes the inner monologue (no idea why I’m not talking to you directly, just ignore it, my fingers are sticky because I just ate a tangerine and it’s hard to type which has nothing to do with anything but whatever) of his muses, they really get you hooked on the inner workings of a muse and create the muse’s voice beautifully. Like, I’m pretty sure without icon or name, I’d be able to tell when he’s writing different characters, and that’s super and super important :3

My thoughts on their writing style as a whole:

I adore it! :D It’s recognizable in its iiraeth-ness and to be honest, reading anything he writes always puts me in a good mood? His writing style has this certain something to it where everything just… flows, everything looks like it fits perfectly and a hundred percent, and it makes me a very comfortable reader.

Situation(s)/Plot(s) I’d love to see their muse(s) in:

Well, I’m going to be honest, it’d be funny to see Jaehyuk deal with a very weird person on his radio show, it’d be hilarious :3 But no pressure, I enjoy your muses however they may be :3

Someone else I love seeing them interact with:

Hmm, can’t tell :D I don’t always look at the threads of others, I feel like half a stalker when I do for some reason I couldn’t tell you why XD

Anything else I want to say about their roleplaying:

That I honestly hope I get to see more of it and for a while, and that I may get a chance at writing with you some more. I’m not saying you should just, write more, because I know you’re busy :3 I’m just saying that I’d love to meet more of your muses, no matter how long it may take, it doesn’t matter :D

If We Know Each Other (i mean a lil)

What I Think Are Their Best Qualities:

Again, I hope I’m not being too personal, and welp we haven’t really spoken a super lot, but I feel like you’re a very cool dude who knows what he’s planning and doing and y’know I just love looking at your blog or your muses or your writing because you somehow manage to make everything look so right? Does that make sense. You’re good at the stuff you do basically.

What I Think Are Their Strengths:

I don’t think I can answer this :D

A Memorable OOC Interaction Of Ours:

He once showed enthusiasm at seeing me return from a period of inactivity and while that wasn’t an interaction per se, it really surprised me and well let’s just say I really appreciated that moment ;W;

Why Others Should RP With Them:

Because he’s got freaking bomb characters and a gorgeous writing style and everything just falls so beautifully into place no matter what everything is like how the hell can he make his icon look so right, what does that even mean??

How Others Should Approach Them:

Like they should approach everyone, with respect and keeping in mind that every person is their own person and should be treated as such, as well as while keeping in mind that people have lives outside of Tumblr and rp too.

Other Roleplayers I’d Recommend To Them:

To be honest, I don’t remember if you already interact with her, but I’m recommending @pvlchritudine because they got a TON of superb muses to offer (if you’re not mutuals tho keep in mind she’s private) and she’s super great as well. I always recommend @dcmnation because Naka has such an interesting and amazing repertoire of muses to offer, if you’d like to have your characters meet something incredibly unique and challenging than hit her up.There’s also @littlcstarling who’s got a cool variety of muses too and who you could hit up for the diversity, which you could hit up @intergalacticxmisfits for as well and I’ll stop here otherwise I’ll never stop gushing about my mutuals.

Anything else I want to say about them:

YOU’RE VERY SUPER COOL, and I hope you manage to get breathers in your life, y’know, times to take it easy :3

If We Have/Plan To Interact Together

A plot I’d like to write with them:

I don’t have anything specific in mind at the moment, but I’m always up for something :D We both got wishlists, if you ever feel like writing a plot together, here I am :3

A muse I want to introduce to them:

You’ve met Patrick half a time, but he’s got a lot of annoying shenanigans to offer, but you know who I’d rather throw at any muse of yours? Kihoon. He’s annoying too, nevermind.

A ship/broship I’d like to propose to them:

HMMM, I think we’d need more interactions with the same muses for that :D Although, I would like to see Daniel bother Jaehyu with his clumsy nagging shenanigans a bit more :3

A thread with them I’m excited about:

Both! :D I love interacting with you, so I’m excited about each chance I get to :3

Anything else I want to say:

Thank you for always being so kind and cool to me, I hope you are comfortable at the point you are in life right now and that we may get to interact some more together :3

Instagram, a melting pot of breath-taking pictures, hilarious meme pages, and interesting virtual debate with strangers, is a must-find in any millennial's phone today. The social media app can be addictive. There are some cases where a person spent several hours scrolling through their feeds, forgetting about their tasks. However, Instagram is also an excellent marketing tool for businesses, and so is its sister app Facebook. Many link Instagram and Facebook accounts to synchronize their posts on both platforms. Doing so helps them grow their audience and online presence. So, if you have been asking yourself how to link Instagram to Facebook, this guide is for you. 

Why should you link your Instagram and Facebook accounts?

The short answer to why you should link Instagram and Facebook accounts is growth. Combining the forces of the two social media giants gives you the chance to create a strong brand image. Many companies go wrong in their social media marketing strategy when they fail to synchronize posts across various platforms. This is not to say you should post the same thing everywhere. However, putting up relative updates is the best way to get your audience hooked. For instance, if you have a live session coming up on either Facebook or Instagram, you can talk about the same on both.

Another reason to link Instagram to Facebook is the option to grow your audience,  leading to a growth in your online presence and potential clients. It will also make you appealing in the eyes of your audience to give them an option to follow you through incentives.

⭐️⭐️⭐️  300 Follower Giveaway   ⭐️⭐️⭐️

I can’t believe this blog is going to be a YEAR old in a month. I know I dropped off the face of earth for a few months but I’m back and plan to stay back. A lot of my old partners aren’t here anymore BUT I have met so many wonderful people in the last week since I have returned. This is a little thank you/half assed promo post for those special people that I particularly enjoy writing with and that Bill is absolutely nuts for. Not to mention a little giveaway, too~!

⭐️⭐️⭐️ FOLLOW FOREVER  ⭐️⭐️⭐️

⭐️⭐️⭐️ THE PINES FAMILY  ⭐️⭐️⭐️

@pinetrce - Holy heckaroni. I LOVE your Dipper so much. I love the thread we have going on for the We’ll Meet Again AU/verse/whatever. Bill and Dip’s interactions make me laugh so much and I always enjoy seeing you on my dash ALL THE TIME and I await each and every reply from you! Quality!

@theglitterytwin - YOU HAVE BEEN AROUND FOR SO LONG OF THIS BLOG’S LIFE AND I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. You are such a positive person and I love your portrayal of Mabel beyond reason. She’s so bubbly and happy and it’s addictive. I love every thread we do because it flows so well with our muses.

@bannedinmoststates - This Stan. This Stan right here. We need to do more threads together but I already super adore your Stan. “Staniel” and Bill fighting? Give me more of that! Punch him in his stupid eyeball! Also I am a Big Fan of your Mabel cosplay. A+++ stuff, my friend. 

@sufordtive - Let me tell you about this Ford right now. It’s been TWO fucking days since we met and I messaged them on a whim. It was such a great decision because talk about immediately clicking. Headcanons and memes galore! I cannot WAIT to do a serious thread with you because DAYUM. Even with our crack/Dicksword conversations, I LOVE your Ford soooooo much. Bill, too.

@bolotiesandjournals - The sassiest Dipper ever. I know we have yet to do the werewolf AU/where Bill and Dipper share a body but... I love talking to you on Discord so much. You are super amazing and Bill is already So Attached to your boyo. The hijinks they would get into in both of these situations is hilarious and I think about this a lot. Thank you for messaging me out of the blue. Friendship made. 

⭐️⭐️⭐️ DEVOTED WORSHIPPERS ⭐️⭐️⭐️

@wxll-cxpher - This is Bill’s demon bf. They have a beautiful baby triangle daughter named Lilith Guacamole and the mun is absolutely wonderful. I have been sending her snapchat doodles of Bill doing silly things over the year and she replies with Will drawings and it always cheers me up. Also our URLs match. We’re fuckin’ twins, okay?

@useless-stereotype - I LOVE YOU AND I LOVE PAZ. I swear to God, Paz is the cutest angel I have ever seen and the way you write is beautiful. I have seen threads where she’s an energetic ball of love and others where she’s super murderous and loyal. Which is awesome and I love seeing that in a character. Bill’s on and off girlfriend ( mostly on ) and he loves her deep down. He just doesn’t show it because he’s a fucking triangle. <3

@bezazzled - I know we’ve been out of touch for a while but hell. You are a Mabel that makes me laugh so hard and every interaction we have puts a big grin on my face. My new favorites are “I can’t believe Bill sent a nude to Ford” and “Great Aunt Bill Cipher”. Keep being you and never change. To more RPs in the future!

@flannelandchill - I know you haven’t been active for some time but hey, I wanted to mention you here, too. I LOVE your Wendy. She’s so chill and she is Wine Mom’s favorite kiddo. I will always remember the thread where Bill takes over and texts her “dates” with ridiculously violent and insulting things. That was the best ever. 

⭐️⭐️⭐️ HONORABLE MENTIONS  ⭐️⭐️⭐️

@ted-audrey-blog - No offense but Bill hates Ted. Me on the other hand... I love that you always send me asks to answer! It’s a lot of fun and it makes me very happy that I can deliver quality that makes you keep coming back. 

@wxrstliink​ - I haven’t really interacted much with you but damn. The sass-off with Bill and Pacifica had me in tears. I hope we can do more threads in the future! Thank you for giving me a chance!

I am sure I’m missing people but those are the ones that REALLY stand out. It’s such a short list ( and I’m sorry ) but please know that I appreciate the hell out of everyone. Thank you, thank you, thank you for sticking with me all this time.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ GIVEAWAY  ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Okay, okay. I’m a poor as fuck girl with two jobs and some passable artistic talent. One ( 1 ) reblog and you’ll be put into a list that will be randomly generated with random.org for a prize. This time there will be three winners and the prizes are the following:

First place winner: A fully colored/shaded/highlighted drawing of your choice! If you have an OC you want me to draw, provide references.

Second place winner: A flat colored drawing! Same thing applies with OCs.

Third place winner: An uncolored drawing. Same as above for OCs.

I’ll be deciding the winners on Tuesday! Good luck and thank you!

Tag!

I was tagged an age ago by the lovely @preux-chevalier to answer some questions! Thank you! Sorry it took so long.

Name: Joni
 Nicknames: Joan (general go-to), Jaz (but only by Chaz), Goni (based on small cousin’s first pronunciation, and now used by most family members) 
 Gender: cis female
 Sexual orientation: what’s one of those 
 Star sign: I think Scorpio 
 Height: 5'11", sometimes “and a half” 
 Favourite colour: blue! 
 Hogwarts house: I don’t Harry Potter, so I don’t know! 
 Time right now: 18:56
 Favourite animal: probably cows. Giraffes are a close runner-up. 
 Average hours of sleep: about 6? 
 Lucky number: 72, it’s always 72. 
 Last thing I googled: “doctor who extremis rafando". Can you guess which episode I’m most looking forward to lol 
 Cat or dog person: I’d have to say dog person, but I do also love cats! 
 Blankets I sleep with: at home, one. Sometimes two at the farm because there’s no heating. 
 Favourite band: hmmm, this is hard because I mostly listen to lone singer/songwriters. Probably Bittereinder, which is hilarious because Afrikaans rap is NOT usually where I’m at. 
 Dream job: children’s poet! 
 Dream trip: Australia, to see my cousin-sister! 
 When did you make this blog? Just passed its fifth anniversary. What a golden age 
 What do you post a lot about: Cabin Pressure, Humans, Riverdale, B99, Star Wars, poetry and its associated memes, writing, animals. 
 Follower count: 1437. Thanks, bredlik crowd. 
 Do you get asks often: I don’t know what counts as often, but I have quite a few bredlik messages that I really should respond to, sorry! But the best asks are obviously from Cai 😊
 Why did you choose your URL: it’s in honour of the would-be golden trio of the CW show ���The 100’: Wells, Bellamy and Clarke. I say 'would-be’ because The 100 famously only lasted for 3 episodes, after which it was replaced by the far less worthy show, 'The 100 Reasons Why Wells Should Still Be Alive What Were The Writers Thinking Like Honestly’. Anyway, the term 'wellamarke’ was coined by @wulkru and I while we were churning out tonnes of meta for an AU in which The 100 had continued with the trio intact. Good times. (I would be 'flodax’ by now after Flash, Odi and Max, but I’m kind of attached to wellamarke now.)

I’m gonna tag the last 5 mutuals in my notifications, for want of any other system! Feel free to ignore, obviously! @rachelvanbora @vincytab @winterrose16312 @unionjackpillow @bendingthewillow

[acuppellarp]

Welcome (again) to A Cup-pella, Lauren! We’re excited to have you and Val Moreano in the game! Please go through the checklist to make sure you’re ready to go and send in your account within the next 24 hours. 

OOC INFO

Name + pronouns: Lauren + She/Her Age: 28 Timezone: EST Ships: Val/Chemistry Anti-Ships: Val/forced IC INFO Full Name: Valentina Moreano Face Claim: Sofia Carson Age/Birthday: 23/ May 24, 1995 Occupation: Tech hand at Public Theater Personality: Creative, Determined, Vain and Focused. Hometown: San Francisco, CA Bio: The second child of Alice and Luca Moreano, Valentina Moreano was not planned, nor was she truly wanted. That’s not to say that her parents didn’t love and provide the best life they could for her. Moreso, she just knew from a very young age that she was an accident and her parents favored her older brother more than her. Her parents had high hopes for her brother, he was to be a doctor, or lawyer like them. For Valentina? Well, they wanted her to go do something good with her life, but they really only cared she graduated high school and got into college…without getting pregnant.

As a infant and toddler her parents took care of her on a basic level, but it was her brother who truly took care of her. He babysat her any chance he got, he spoiled his little sister with toys, books and the love his parents kept for him. He became more of a father to her than her real father was. Vincent doted on her, bragged about his sisters talent in singing to his school friends, talked about how smart she was and sweet she was. And Valentina idolized her brother in return, despite the 8 year age difference. 

When she got into high school things changed. Her brother was in college five hours away, and despite this, their parents were still focused on their son and making sure he was getting the best grades to become a doctor. Valentina became bitter about the lack of care and attention her parents spent on her and started to act out in hopes of getting their attention. She started staying out late, partying, sleeping around. She came home drunk many nights and even occasionally had a cop drop her off. While this earned her a good talking to, it barely broke their attention from their own work or her older brother. But when her brother found out—he drove home and scolded her till she truly felt guilty. He pushed her to change her focus from her parents approval to doing what made her happy.

That one thing that truly made her happy? It was theater. It was the one place she got the attention she so craved. She worked her butt off and continually climbed the ranks in her high school drama club. By the time she graduated she had been the lead in two musicals, and had been learning stage management—and much to her brothers glee she stopped coming home so drunk. She still drank, still slept around and did things she most likely shouldn’t—but she had a reason to keep sober, to keep focused.

This love of theater continued when she graduated. She worked to get scholarships and found a way to move to NYC to go to NYU it took her a year and a half to save up the money and get the scholarships, but at 19.5 years old Val packed her bags and moved to the city that never sleeps.

To say she loved the city—it would be an understatement. She adored this city, adored everything that it was and it offered. From the moment she stepped off the train she knew this was the city she was meant to be in for the rest of her life. She got herself some roommates, found a job as a waitress and started to study theater in a more serious way. 

She lived with five roommates to begin with and it was like that until last year when she met Jemma. The two fell into each other, drawn to one another like magnets. Val had been looking for a new place to stay one with only one other roommate when she came across Jemma’s ad. They hit it off quickly and just as quickly fell into a sort of relationship. But just as things were really heating up, and those three little words were about to be said—Val became terrified.

Terrified it was all to good to be true, terrified it was a lie. She felt she didn’t deserve Jemma, didn’t deserve happiness…and this sent her in a drunken stupor into the arms of another woman. When she woke the next day she felt guilty and disgusted with herself.

She couldn’t keep looking at Jemma knowing what she did. so she packed her things, wrote a note explaining it all and moved in with another friend. After five months, and working her ass off, she got a new job, now as a tech hand on an off broadway theater. She still acts and sings—oh and she’s still finishing up her degree. She’s hoping that one day she’ll be a producer, or a star, but as of right now? She’s part of the build crew. And she’s fine with that, as long as she can still audition here and there and do her own acting.

Pets: Luna - A appenzeller mountain dog. She’s very friendly, sassy and downright adorable. She’s protective her human, but also super friendly once she realizes that Val likes you. While she may officially be Valentina’s dog, Luna, considers the other roommates to be like her second mothers and protects them just as fiercely as she protects Valentina. She mostly just wants tummy rubs and to sit on your feet. Oh and lots of treats. Don’t let those puppy dog eyes lure you into giving her more food. She’s a good beggar. 

Relationships: 

♬ Aria, Unique, Tina, Mercedes, Robin, Sugar, Marley, Bea and Kitty The cast and crew of The Untitled Abrams Project. Val has come to like all of them in their own ways. Of course she has her favorites, one’s she feels closer to, ones she likes more than the others, but Val really does her best to be friendly to them all. She loves Aria and thinks she’s hilarious and sweet, she adores Tina’s ability to make and style them so perfectly. At first Sugar freaked her out but she soon came to love the girl’s attitude. She thinks Bea is adorable and tries her best not to be overly flirty around her, but…its hard. Marley is one of her favs, the girl is just so precious and sweet she can’t deal sometimes. As much as she loves Unique and Mercedes she gets tired of their diva-ness and sometimes wishes they would just chill, but on the whole she really loves them all.

♪ Jemma Sterling Val became Jemma’s roommate by pure accident. She saw an ad, thought it looked interesting and showed up. Next thing she knew her and Jemma were hitting it off and she was moving in. The two became the best of friends and spent all their time together. One thing led to another and the two started sleeping together regularly. It was almost like they were a couple–but they weren’t. Or so she thought. Val started falling for Jemma but fear of it all drove Val to drinking and then–being with another girl. Guilt ridden and feeling like trash Val ran, packed up her belongings, left a heartfelt note and moved in with another friend for a short bit of time. She’s not seen her ex since. 

♬ Teddy Dixon She met Teddy at ACup, and one night during her panic of what was happening with Jemma she got herself a cup of coffee and ended up talking to Teddy. Before she knew it the two were in bed. They still occasionally hook up, no feelings attached.

Five latest tweets: @ me: okay Luna, you gotta chill and let mommy read her lines. Luna, my five month old puppy: *sits like a good girl…for all of five seconds before jumping up and knocking down the following: me, coffee, food, and somehow the vase on the other side of the room* Me: SIGH why do I even try with you. @ it’s 4 and I cant sleep. Anyone wanna come help me? ;) @ my director just told me I’m sunshine mixed with a little hurricane…I think I can roll with that. @ I just realized: pretty much all of my problems are problems that 24-year-old Val is going to have to deal with. But I’m not 24-year-old Val. I’m 23 -year-old Val, and I have zero problems. @ If you’re gonna be extra, just own it and be extra about your extra-ness
