“Your Hot Furry Boyfriend Takes You on a Date But Then Ethereal Horrors Beyond Your Understanding Interrupt [ASMR]” Von Lycaon x gnReader (Romantic)

a/n: was listening to an actual asmr rp video and realized how down bad i am

The cold night breeze whistled through the streets, a coat lended to you by your boyfriend, Von Lycaon, stopping you from feeling it in its entirety. There weren’t many others on the street, only a couple others milling about. Shops were beginning to be closed, street lamps buzzing to life, owls and cicadas beginning to sing as the Sun began to dip itself under the horizon.

Snuggling closely to your boyfriend, he wrapped his arm around you, the warmth of his fur and the solid feeling of his toned body provided were comforts of steady warmth. Smiling, the two of you continued on to your shared apartment, basking in each other's presence.

Then there was a boom.

Shattering the serenity of the evening, a dark pulsating sphere burst out in the middle of the area they were in. Screams rang out as people began to run away from the ever-growing ball. A newly formed Hollow was emerging.

Lycaon moved quickly, taking his phone out and dialing his colleague, “Rina, there’s a Hollow forming on Fifth Street.” He held you firmly, beginning to basically carry you as he moved to get you as far as possible from the emerging Hollow. “You know what to do.” Hanging up from his phone before pocketing it, he turned to you. “Let’s go Dear.”

Only a few steps before the Hollow burst, enclosing the entirety of the surrounding area in its new space-warping environment.

“Faster than expected…” He murmured to himself, a sense of worry building in him- though not outwardly exposing it, mannerisms learned from his years as part of Victoria Housekeeping. Without a Proxy, there was no way they could get out without getting lost within the Hollow themselves. All they could do was,

“Wait for Miss Rina.” Lycaon held you tight, knowing that your Ether Aptitude was way less than his. A safe estimation would be that you had twenty-three minutes until your time ran out. That would not happen.

As the two of you ventured throughout the Hollow, aiming to either encounter Public Security or be located by Phaethon- either way, being sitting ducks was not an option. At your behest, the both of you searched for survivors. It seemed most people followed protocols, encouraged to learn it by heart from a young age. You couldn’t not know what to do in case of a sudden Hollow appearing when living in New Eridu after all.

Just as you were looking through some windows, searching for the elderly or those unable to escape, Lycaon rushed forward in a blur of white being trailed by a cool blue. An Ethereal. It had just rounded the corner before being split into two and ultimately disintegrating back into the Unknown Substance of the Hollow. You rushed to be closer to him, before he raised his hand.

His ears rotated before his fur stood up. A break in his characteristic cool composure. Quickly, he grabbed you before you could even react and rushed the two of you behind an alley. Just as you were about to speak, he covered you mouth. You moved to shoot him a look of indignation before getting a good look at the expression he wore. Worried.

A shadow passed through the streets. It was large, about the size of a firetruck. Looking up, the two of you became petrified at the sight of the Ethereal. Bigger than any ever recorded, squid-like in it’s appearance. It flowed through the skies like water, a dead gaze as it searched for… something.

“Psst!”

The two of you jumped, Lycaon nearly punting the pint-sized newcomer before stopping himself midway through, the now recognized-Bangboo raising its small arms in surrender. “Wait! Miss Rina sent me!”

“Ah, Master Proxy. I apologize.”

“It’s fine! That weird squid Ethereal is something I’d expect to see at the Outpost! But forget that, let’s get you out of here.”

“Please, I think we have about thirteen minutes left.”

“Isn’t your Aptitude high?”

Lyacon motioned to you, with you waving as the Bangboo waved back.

The Bangboo turned back to the wolf-Thiren.

“Is that your…?”

“Significant other? Yes.”

“Wow! For some reason I both did and didn’t expect that…” The Bangboo muttered to themselves before turning back to lead them. Then they stopped before quickly motioning for everyone to hide.

The shadow of the titan-sized Ethereal passed by once more, now seemingly closer to touching down onto the ground than before.

“Alright let’s go!” The Bangboo whisper-yelled, waving for them to follow. As they passed and rounded a few more corners, the Bangboo seemed to have gotten a premonition, “Ethereals!” Lyacon burst forward to protect the team as mentioned Etherals burst out of the woodwork, black charcoal bodies with green oozing out from their underbody.

He stepped forward before bursting into motion, leaving a small crater where he used the ground as a starter block. Quickly disposing of the enemies in a professional matter, none of the Ethereals could even hope to land an attack as he fought, decimating their numbers with practiced ease.

Taking out his watch as you and the Bangboo caught up with him, you noticed a furrow in his brow. Questioning it, he replied, “Eight more minutes. Phatheon, we must hurry.”

“Right!” The Bangboo replied, scurrying forward to lead the group out once more. Passing through a few portals. The tell-tale sound of Public Security vehicles and Rescue Bangboo becoming more audible as your group began to reach the exit.

“EEEAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!”

A screech that could be heard from all throughout the Hollow, turning back, all three of you watched as the Ethereal noticed your group, having sacrificed hiding for efficiency in haste to get out. The being began to approach with frightening haste, unnatural in how something so big could move so fast.

Breaking out of his stupor fast, Lycaon hoisted you and the Bangboo up with his arms and began to sprint in the direction Phaethon pointed them in before being disrupted.

“Where to Master Phaethon?”

“Left!”

“Now take a right!”

“One more- oh jeez it’s catching up!”

Lyacon used every ounce of strength in each push his legs gave, pushing through stray smaller Ethereals, not wanting to give the monstrosity chasing them a chance to catch up. After a few more blocks, it had gotten so close that you could hear the squelching of it’s tendrils, with it only being stopped by the buildings. Just as it seemed that it would begin to make a grab at Lyacon, gunfire rang out.

Public Security, with this particular group headed by Zhu Yuan and Qingyi, with backup from neighboring departments as well as their very own, laid down gunfire on the Ethereal. Forcing it to evade to avoid taking the brunt of the firepower being let out on it.

“Phatheon!”

“One more right!”

He barreled forward, just as a wave of nausea hit you. Two more minutes.

Sprinting forward, he fell into one final tear in reality, arriving in a space in front of the Hollow.

Setting you and the Bangboo down, he let you catch your breath as he reconvend with Phaethon.

“I am in your debt, Master Proxy. Money will be forward-”

“I- It’s fine Sir!”

“Pardon?”

“Just for this once! Take it as a token of good faith.”

Lyacon smiled, nodding as he turned his attention back to you, leaving the Bangboo to return back home.

“Are you okay?” “‘m fine… just tired.” “Of course, let's have you checked then we can return home, okay?” “Mm…”

You nodded off to sleep as he lifted you in his arms, taking you over to the doctor to get checked. Waking you up only for a little bit before falling right back to sleep after all the tests were done. You were cleared- only being exhausted from prolonged exposure to the Hollow.

Setting you softly onto the shared bed, Lycaon softly caressed the top of your head. Thankful for having been able to get you out with minimal roadblocks. Had the two of you been even a little slower…

Best not to think about it.

Later, the Hollow would be contained once more through the combined efforts of Public Security and the military sector based in Scott Outpost. Only a few casualties- a testimony to the effectiveness of their efficiency.

So... I wanted to make an idol group to feature in the story for my fanregion project, came up with these ladies here. Started working on them, became EXTREMELY attached and they kinda, funnily enough, evolved into something MUCH more than what I had intended, & now kinda becoming their own thing. They very precious to me rn,,, and I realized they'd make a PERFECT RP blog. So here we are! I don't want this to be *too* long but still want to make sure there's info for all the girls available particularly so interactions can be as smooth as possible, so I wrote everything you should need to know down on this doc (bc this would be 20 miles long if I didn't lol): https://docs.google.com/document/d/1f55b2sO8AmJIjVBNs2hCWpzMiI-T8e9QFIS9MkYJZL4 I've got most of their backstories and whatnot roughed out as well but I won't reveal those just yet :) Oh and just to make sure it's 100% clear they are all humans; I plan to draw them in both their stage costumes and casual outfits soon! I also imagine they're from Sinnoh but travel worldwide all the time for their concerts and idol activities. Also, the heart emojis are going to signify who's talking when! Only rules for interaction are no NSFW/suggestive content, otherwise everything is pretty much fair game. Blog is run by @michellekyura and you can keep up with my rp blogs at @michellespkmnirlhub ! That should be all for now!

[loveapologist]

We have had this conversation many times before, but I think it's worth repeating and stressing out:

Cringe culture is dead, embrace what you love making and do it unapologetically.

Speaking as an artist, I've found myself assaulted many times by the dichotomy of making art that is acceptable vs the art I want to make. By acceptable I don't mean void of controversy (art is all about sharing your own voice and sometimes that is controversial!) but art that I know it's gonna be well received by the internet.

Take fanart for example; it's not only that fanart is gonna be more popular and well received than original art (duh) but also fanart from certain media will garner more attention. A fanart from a different media will have less tracking and that is all well and understood; I'm not taking about popularity here, I'm talking about guilt.

Guilt about making something from a fandom and have people construct an idea about you, guilt about putting work and time into something that is not gonna interest the people that follow you and may drive them away. We have to get rid of that; how many stories are not being told due to guilt? How many niche fandoms are missing out on amazing artists?

I've found myself unsure about posting art of different stuff and even creating it. Getting stuck into this X fandom I may like and it's popular and well received and not being brave enough to share other things that are dear to my heart, due to this guilt. No one will care, they will think I'm this way or that, I will be an annoyance on people's feeds.

And that is so fucked up.

For example, at the start of the year I took the hard decision to stop being a freelance artist and change careers (for several reasons, I won't go into it now). It was incredibly painful and I could not bring myself to pick up a pencil again and create for months. I got into Harry Potter rolplaying in a very private environment and I didn't share it with anyone because I felt guilt for liking that fandom too- I've tried to move forward, grow out of it, but I just can't. I'm gonna be thirty soon and I've come to realize it's my special interest, it fills me in ways that other things can't. It's comfort, it's home.

The thing that got me out of a very toxic moment with art? Drawing my Harry Potter OC I use for rolplay. I love him so much, it's very dear to me and I would love to share the rich history I've built around him but again- even after all this time, I found myself feeling guilty. About liking Harry Potter, about having a cringey rp OC, about not posting art for the other fandoms I've been into.

And you know what? I'm tired of it. This fills me with a creative passion I hadn't felt in years, it makes me want to draw again even if no one really cares. I'm tired of feeling guilty and I won't let myself be reigned by it no longer.

Who cares if it's a rp oc, if it's a self insert in some ways, if it's cringe or overdone. I do have a creative voice, stories to tell, things that I love and it's that love I want to share.

Life is too short to stop yourself from creating and sharing something you love. Create the thing, share the thing. At the end of the day there is no one else but yourself to be accountable for the things you have or haven't done.

Brahms Heelshire Headcanons

Honestly I'm not sure why it took me so long to do Brahms, given I've been writing him since mid 2022. But I've been really vibing Slasher Headcanon posts lately, and today, it's his turn! [Updated: 12/2/24]

As always, these are of course my own personal opinion, but feel free to reblog, add onto them, ask questions about them, or add them to the ones you accept yourself! I absolutely love hearing from others on their thoughts.

.♡♡.﹀﹀﹀﹀.♡♡.﹀﹀﹀﹀.♡♡.﹀﹀﹀﹀.♡♡.﹀﹀﹀﹀.♡♡.﹀﹀﹀﹀.♡♡.

Headcanons from the Movie:

The Greta doll [Or the Nanny doll, for fics or content where the nanny is an OC or the reader] was never intended as anything dark/kinky/etc. It was simply Brahms mirroring how he'd seen affection shown towards him. I went into this in more detail on this post, if you're interested.

While he doesn't have the ability/time to do things like take care of his hair or shave, he does shower when the nanny is outside doing the rat traps.

When he can risk it, he'll sneak his clothes in with the laundry, but that became more difficult once his parents left. He's sometimes able to manage it by putting a few things in with sheets/blankets, but more often than not he'll simply use the clothes his dad left behind when he needs something clean to wear.

Def a clingy boy. Likes being able to have some form of physical contact with his partner, or at least be able to see/hear them if he can't do that.

Sometimes doesn't understand things that one would expect an adult to know, simply because his parents didn't teach him. The best way to address moments like this is to correct any mistakes gently, and teach him what he needs to know. [This does not mean to treat him like a child, just be patient and don't use a judgmental tone.

Occasionally has trouble processing emotions, especially negative ones, due to his father having a 'men don't cry' mindset.

Headcanons from Fanfic or Fandom Interactions:

Once he's ready to do so, he's okay with being seen without his mask. Respecting the boundary of letting him decide when that happens is a great way to show you care/trust/love him.

Definitely nervous about leaving the property, but he can manage if he's not alone at first. Once he's been out with someone he trusts enough to adjust to things like the crowds, levels of noise, and the environments, he's ok with splitting up for short periods of time.

When he goes out, he wears a cloth mask to cover the lower half of his face, so that the scarring will draw less attention.

Random Headcanons:

He's 100% the big spoon, regardless of a partner's size. While he does enjoy being held, he prefers to do so when he's holding his partner at the same time.

Really loves having his hair played with, especially if combined with kisses or cuddles.

Dog person [Cats are too aloof, and he enjoys the energy dogs can have. They're also a good way to get him going outside in the fresh air again]

Likes to slow dance with partners at times, because it reminds him of sneaking down the stairs and seeing his parents slow dancing together.

18+ Headcanons🌶️🔞:

Spicy Headcanons:

This man does not know his own strength, so do not be surprised at all if you have bruises in the shape of his hands.

Definitely a switch, because he can enjoy both being the one in control and the one being controlled.

loves seeing his partner climax, but prefers it to be from him doing it than them doing so.

He likes to restrain with consent, because it means that there's no escape.

100% respects safe words however, and generally uses the traffic light system of red means stop, yellow means slow down/pause, and green means good to keep going.

A bit into somnophilia [sex with someone asleep]

Does not like NonCon RPs or scenarios, even in a consensual noncon scenario. He prefers his partner to be very clearly, enthusiastically, consenting.

Age Regression Headcanons: NOTE: I am not intending to say that age regression on it's own is spicy or kink. However, I feel it best to keep it under the 18+ cut to be safe.

One of his favorite modern children's shows is Bluey. This is partially due to the characters being dogs, partially because of the parenting dynamics shown, and partially because there are heavier/more adult topics addressed in a way that's easy to process/understand.

Sometimes will relate to characters deeply, and can use that to communicate a bit more easily. [A main example is Bingo in Dance Mode]

To add onto the above, if a nanny/partner sees him upset and prompts 'Checklist', he will recite off Chilli's checklist from the episode The Show, while allowing himself to do the items on it. It started as a way to help him address his emotions in a healthy way, but soon became something that helps both him and his nanny/partner, as he can do the same thing with them.

The checklist is as follows: ✓ Have a Cry ✓ Pick Myself Off ✓ Dust Myself Off ✓And keep going.

Likes doing coloring pages or other simple crafts, and will often proudly present his partner with the end result.

Loves it when they put it on the fridge where it can be on display.

Eventually turns his childhood room into a 'Littlespace' room for him to go to whenever he like. This means painting the walls a soft, comforting color, putting soft rugs on the floor, adding prism window clings to the window to cast rainbows all about the room, a permanent pillow fort, and a TV with a DVD player and VHS player on a wheeled table that can be moved anywhere in the room, with a bookshelf full of movies from their childhood, as well as more modern ones.

One of his favorites is Quest For Camelot.

[darkleloog]

NO.

OK THAT'S ALL, WHAT THE HELL, I DON'T INSULT ANYONE NOR DO I INTEND TO DO IT, IT'S RP, SEND THAT BUNCH OF TEXT IN A COPY PASTE OF THE FIRST RESULT THAT APPEARED I THOUGHT "hehe, Alex will very upset with Darkle, Darkle wants to win that position as Alex's enemy." AND I TOOK A RANDOM PIECE OF ALL THE LOTS OF TEXT THAT WAS PUT THERE. I don't understand it, I didn't want to offend anyone.

THEN IT'S MISUNDERSTOOD AND THEY SAY: "oh, this guy is an INCREDIBLE idiot" And I try to tell them calmly: "ahem, no. This is just rp, I would never do that."

(This is a completely idiotic topic and taken in an immature way by me) Oh, and you'll think: "nah, nah, nah, he's just trying to defend himself from what this monster really is."

NO.

STOP. WTH, NO.

Darkle: GCBC DID YOU BLOCK ME?? Thank you, I love you too.

UUUHHHHG, THIS TEXT LOOKS SO WEIRD WITH ALL CAPS-

Well, whatever. THE CREATION OF THIS ACCOUNT WAS TO CREATE HATE TOWARDS DARKLE, HE IS THE ANTAGONIST

While I was writing all this I was thinking: "this text looks so bad, it's going to look like I'm EXCUSING myself" NO, NO, NO.

What a shame all this is

OH YEAH, I BLOCKED GCBC FOR A LITTLE WHILE IN THE FORM OF: "no, now, stop, I don't want to get in trouble, I don't want to have to do THIS TEXT." And it only got worse, bad choice. MY FAULT, my fault, ik, it's my fault, I'm sorry.

At the end of that pile of text I put " /j " because I didn't want that to be misunderstood, and you will say: "why didn't you put in small print that it is not serious to insult? IT LOOKED BAD, FROM MY POINT OF VIEW IT LOST GRACE, RATHER, GRACE FROM DARKLE'S POINT OF VIEW, I really wanted to make it look like Darkle was the one who wrote it, NOT ME.

Ok, this is already a lot to read, GCBC, sorry to tell you so late, but, do you remember that time I made an Alex bot and you told me:

" AI is theft, and also a HORRIBLE resource guzzler. If you care at all about the hard work that *real people* put into honing their crafts, or the environment, you'll stay well away from this nonsense. "

(Yes, I copied the text)

Again, SORRY!! AI is crap if you ask me, but I really wanted to do something different. I didn't dare tell you.

Finally the text ends here.

Postscript: This blog is the blog of an antagonist. I thought: "an antagonist is needed in an rp"

I've put humor here because I don't even like reading things written with so much "Capital letters? Seriousness?"

That's it, it doesn't matter. IT'S OVER, RIGHT?

[okamirayne]

Hi, fellow writer here simply trying to get some traction their story via tumblr. Do you have any tips?

Hi there, Fellow Writer! ✍🏼

Ooh, tips…!

I guess it depends on what’s got you stuck? Are you feeling blocked with plot or are your characters not cooperating? Do you need creative inspiration or something practical to apply?

Here are some tips that I hope might help, my dear. Please discard what doesn’t work for you, or feel free to let me know if there’s a specific area you’re stumped on in which I may be able to offer my humble two cents. 🩵

Inspiration ideas: create some music playlists for your characters; read some non-fiction books surrounding your characters such as their job/psychology/world (e.g if your character is a Viking warrior maybe read into early medieval Norse history and/or mythology plus battle tactics of the Norse warriors); make a character mood-board; have fun and dabble in some art or other creative pursuit to shake up your right brain (you can keep it connected to your characters/story); brainstorm with a creative buddy; dive into storytelling and read some fiction that inspires/entertains you; watch a movie/series that engages you and determine what it was about the story/characters kept you invested (this can be used to help you hone your craft); RP your characters if you can (the real-time urgency and method-acting nature of RPing can really help you connect with your characters); explore areas of The Arts that give you the sweet magical feels ✨; or maybe you just need a break away from the work to let it percolate?

Practical ideas:

1) Character chat: Have a chat with your characters. Write dialogue between you and them. Hang out with them. Revise or revisit your characters’ backstory, their goals (internal/external goals), their fears, unmet needs, their non-negotiables, their core values, their formative years, and the lie they believe about themselves. What are their objectives and what is motivating them? What would happen if they stopped believing the lie about themselves? Who would they have to be (that they don’t want to be), or what would they have to do (that they don’t want to do) if they stopped believing the lie. Examples of lies: I’m broken; I’m unloveable, I have to be strong, I have to rescue everyone, everyone leaves, I’m not worthy, I’m not safe, everyone depends on me, I have to be xyz, xyz is my fault, emotion is weak, everyone else is xyz, if I don’t do ‘x’ then ‘y’ will happen, I AM “xyz” (insert wound/lie here).

2) Head Hop: shift perspective or point of view if you’ve stalled, this can really help. Get into another character’s skin to tell a certain scene.

3) Endings: Get clear on a few different endings (revise plot, but leave room for organic development)

4) Drabbles: write some drabbles. Pick random words and write a short stream of consciousness response from a character’s perspective. E.g Snow, Time, Whisper. You can set a timer if you like, or just go with it, no editing, just free writing to see what gets unlocked.

5) Switch it up: Take a break or shift your environment. Take yourself out and treat yourself to a writer’s date/artist date doing something to fill your creative well (Julia Cameron talks about this in her book The Artist’s Way). If you can take yourself to an environment that resonates with your characters and/or the world they inhabit, even better. Some people like to switch the fonts they write in.

6) Frag Out!: Throw a plot-twist flash bang grenade into your characters’ world. Up the stakes, throw them a curveball, raise the tension, create some conflict or challenges. So long as it lends itself to character growth/revealing something about the character and/or advances the plot, that’s usually a good call!

No idea if these suggestions/tips were helpful, luv. Again, if there’s a specific area that’s giving you trouble you’re welcome to share. 😊 I really hope you can gain some traction and get things rolling again 💪🏼 Wishing you loads of inspiration and energy to do your wordcraft wizardry!✨💜✨

Hey there I'm noodle! 🍜 23 yo nb (they/it/she)

I'm looking for some ARCANE roleplay- I just finished season one and am working my way through season two as we speak!

☆ this will be an oc/Canon RP (With doubling if wanted 👀 tell me about your ocs)

♡ I'd love to explore some au ideas and what ifs- (let my boy claggor live please-) and workshop a good plot!

☆ My main themes i enjoy are obviously romance- i also love drama and angst with comfort

♡ i typically use discord as i don't get Tumblr notifications like I'm supposed to :/ I'm a semi lit writer for 3rd person using the story format usually a paragraph or three!

☆ i do work full-time time aaaand have a part time job! So sometimes I'm a little spotty but I try at least one or two replies a day! (Thank you economy♡) if I'm super hype about it you will probably be My whole day off!

Example of style:

She hums to herself drumming her fingertips on her knees impatiently, her leg bouncing a bit as she scans the room around her. “This is taking forever..” her head snaps up hearing the bell finally ring- pushing up off the stone bench and grabbing her things before she rushes out of the crowded halls onto the street.

She stops for a moment, taking in a breath of fresh air after being trapped in the stale clinical environment inside tension leaving her posture as she felt the warm sun on her face, the sky overhead bright without a cloud in sight.

- sincerely 🍜

I wonder how many of the admins have experience with ttrpgs and other role-playing mediums. Because a good GM will attempt to avoid a player death if it is not wanted by the players. I think we should still have egg lives, because it does lead to some really good rp moments, but the way that they are treated should be different, Instead of forcing a death to happen to push some sort of plot forward, They should be treated more like how player deaths are treated.

ALSO

death messages were turned off for the eggs and created unnecessary confusion. Plus the server has been lagging all night. It's wild that pepito didn't get a nightmare

Idk I just feel like there are way too many finicky external factors that makes it difficult to make an egg death seem fair on the current system

This one’s just a rumor, but I saw someone last night say that egg death messages have been turned off for good as part of the new rule set. Combine that with the fact that eggs are allowed totems now but the eggs themselves didn’t know that (Empanada only found out last week) and the fact that parents only find out about egg rules when they get onto the server and they’re told, and it’s like. What do you mean the eggs don’t know their own rules???

But anyway, I’ve been playing ttrpgs for over half a decade now, and I’m the type of player to actively encourage the dm to take the opportunity to kill my character if it makes sense in the moment because that’s fun for me. But with my current group, the others all were like “nooooo don’t kill him” and they weren’t having fun with me constantly teasing it, so, guess what? I followed the mood and stopped encouraging it.

It’s all about reading and following the mood of the group. And, when your players actively dislike something and write multiple tickets to you trying to get some part of the game removed, it’s the gm’s job to listen to those critiques to provide a safe and enjoyable game environment. That’s Just How It Is

[utilitycaster]

I feel like something so many ppl just don’t get is it’s improv. I’ll see ppl be like “I hate this arc” or “this dragged on” I’m like?? If you want to watch a curated tight fantasy story with a normal beginning middle and end maybe don’t watch long form improv media? Also maybe I’m just fundamentally misunderstanding what ur post is about. I’ll constantly think and say “it’s their game” not as a “they’re above criticism” way but more in a “cmon it’s not like this is a script that’s being poured over by ten ppl sitting in a room debating whether this 30 seconds drags or not”. Like I love Play it By Ear from Dropout but I’d never hold it to the same standard as like Six the musical or whatever. Improv/normal media requires a completely different rule set for criticism imo

Hey anon,

So here's the thing - I agree with this in terms of formal, published criticism (Ebert's Law, if you will) where you are, to an extent, grading on a scale; you should be judging on what the work is trying to achieve and not some abstract ideal that applies equally to all works regardless of provenance.

However, for personal discussion (including your own personal Tumblr blog)? This is totally irrelevant. You're allowed to dislike things, whether it's a 30 minute improvised musical or whether it's the Marriage of Figaro, for any reason. It is 100% valid for someone to look at the Mona Lisa and say "eh, doesn't do it for me," and, moreover, it's just as valid for them to say "it doesn't do it for me because I don't care for representative art and prefer abstract, modern works, but Da Vinci's sfumato technique is indeed masterful" as to say "It doesn't do it for me because it's fucking weird to me that she doesn't have eyebrows." People's enjoyment of a work is not necessarily reliant on effort put in or how much the artist cares about - it should be based on how much the art appeals to them.

It's fine if people hate an arc. If they hate it so much that they aren't able to enjoy watching, then I think they should probably stop watching...but that's a choice for them to make, and as someone who loves complaining, I've talked about arcs dragging and had it interpreted by total strangers as "you clearly seem to hate this" when really it was just a case of me...not liking some aspects of a larger whole, and choosing to talk about that because I had things to say. Like, I do think the early Campaign 3 pacing was deeply frustrating, and I do think that this wouldn't be the case if it weren't improv, but there have been many improv actual plays that I felt had great pacing, and also it was still frustrating to me and I wanted to express that.

In fact, what I was getting at in my post is that if you're trying to provide a counterpoint to other people's criticism, you need to focus on the points they're making; and if you're trying to defend something in general, you need to be talking about what you find good that is specific to that thing, rather than making excuses like "the cast likes it" or "it's improv".

To give an example: I love the Aeor arc, which was, to an extent, divisive. Here's two responses I could have:

"I think the Aeor arc built up to a satisfying and emotionally charged final boss fight that was thematically resonant with the Mighty Nein as a group. I think the path there had a good balance of adventure, combat, and RP scenes, especially given its position as the final arc of the campaign and the one in which many of the character romances were realized. Eiselcross was a fun and well-crafted environment that was challenging for a party of their level, and Aeor provided new insight into the Calamity, which at the time had not been explored in depth, while also providing a lot of opportunities to tie into the arcs of the various individual characters, notably Caleb and Caduceus. I also personally am a big fan of exploring fallen technologically advanced civilizations in a fantasy setting as a trope."

2. "Well, it's the cast's table, and it's improvised."

Both are true, but the first one lets people know what I see in that arc and why I love it. The second one ends the conversation, is true of almost everything Critical Role does, probably doesn't address anyone else's complaints, and doesn't even explain why I like it. And for what it's worth I don't think meta needs to address anyone's complaints - you're allowed to look at the Aeor arc and say "cool, I think it took too long and dragged and was too stressful" and we can part ways knowing we are different people with different tastes. But if I were, hypothetically, passionately trying to defend the Aeor arc and were openly resentful towards people who disliked it, the first option is obviously superior to the second option, which makes me look like someone who cannot come up with a single specific reason why this thing I allegedly love is good, and who is whining because I lack the maturity to accept that my opinions are not universally shared by all.

Upcoming Projects:

There’s so many stories I’ve been wanting to write and projects I want to work on but I have a huge creative block that’s been stopping me for almost 5 years now. I need to stop thinking about only the end result and stop being such a perfectionist, but it’s so hard. I’m making a list to motivate me, and give any tips, advice, or suggestions for creative block if you feel inclined! Thanks so much!

These aren’t ranked in any particular order, but I’m only adding projects that I’m less intimated by onto this list so I can actually start working on them, have a finished product, and not be miserable if it doesn’t turn out the exact way I imagined it.

Fun, Dark Magic D&D Campaign:

Building a stronger D&D 5E campaign for my players. This is my first time playing as well as being a DM, and this is all of their first times playing too. The campaign started in a city full of dark magic, and the characters are currently being pursued by dark wizards for a special item and following one of the characters. I’m working on my improvisation and I’m pretty awkward when it comes to RP/voicing characters, and I want to keep this in mind as I build but also improve on it. (Just don’t want to stall the players or take us out of the game because I can’t think fast/clearly enough!)

What I want to accomplish:

- Making a name for the campaign, first of all. It’s just been going by the group chat name…

- Having a driving goal for the party, as well as a stronger sense of the world they’re in and why.

- Writing sessions more loosely with more options for players, and also finding ways to create concrete events without forcing players into too much exposition/lack of choice

- Tailoring the campaign to the rest of the party’s skills

- Creating more areas and events for the party to explore without being overbearing/overwhelming

- Finding a balance of everything above to make a loose outline of a campaign so I don’t get so lost as a first time DM

Cthulu Session:

I just started reading some Lovecraft for the first time (overdue!) and it was pretty inspiring to me, as I’ve been trying to come up with some ideas for a fun Halloween type campaign for my players.

What I want to accomplish:

- A session that’s memorable and feels very Halloween like.

- A chance to improve on my descriptions of the environment to my players, as well as the effect they have on the environment.

- Give the players a chance to jump more into character and feel like they can RP more comfortably.

- Fun, creepy vibes session that still ties into the story.

Fantasy Novel:

There’s been this idea (only a mood, so far) of a fantasy story I’d like to write. I still don’t know anything about the characters, but I’m starting to notice things about the environment. I’m hoping that by building the environment first (which I’ve never done before) will give me a new challenge, perspective, and process to writing a story. I’m hoping eventually characters will come along the way, and if it doesn’t work out, I’m happy to turn it into a video game or somehow tie it into my D&D campaign.

What I want to accomplish:

- Have a full script of something I’m proud of.

- Learn how to create a strong environment, work on showing/not telling, and successfully immerse the reader in a new land though writing.

- Start and finish a writing project all the way through, even if I don’t feel my soul in it like I do with my bigger projects. (Something to get me going!)

Romance Webcomic

It’s been a small dream of mine lately to make a cute WLW webcomic to get myself used to scripting, drawing, and sharing my content. It’s very different from anything else I’d be writing, but it would really challenge me to rely on dialogue (which I’m horrible at writing) and learn how to do pacing before I start on my longer, more complicated comics.

What I want to accomplish:

- Create something (start to finish) that warms me up on how to write dialogue.

- Learn how to pace comics and chapters.

- Post my work online.

- Draw/translate written script into image, and get faster at drawing comics instead of obsessing over smaller details.

- Learn how to write, draw, and publish with a schedule.

- Build up something to get me going, something I can be proud of, even if it isn’t my ultimate ambition.

- Find the fun in writing and drawing again!

Well, hopefully I have more pressure to start working on this stuff now. I’ll be posting some of it just so I remember I’m staying true to my word, it’s so easy for me to look over and choose to do something else, but if I make tumblr a space to write and learn/encourage other writers, I’ll feel much more excited to write than when I’m sitting at home alone with BG3 and Elden Ring calling my name…

Hoping to make this page a journal and documentation of some kind as I reignite my creating journey. It’s been almost 5 years of avoiding creating work, and it’s starting to really ache. Better to start now than later!

[lightburnsyou]

respond to the following prompts out of character, then tag others you'd like to get to know a little bit better.

roleplayer name: sky!

roleplayer pronouns: she/her

muse name: anakin skywalker

preferred communication: tumblr dms or discord!

experience: over fifteen years! i started on neopets (doing "gifted vs government" rps if you remember those. it was basically just x-men ocs lmao) and started on tumblr doing groups when i was about 14? discovered indie rp around a year or so later. moved to discord and wrote 1x1s sometime during lockdown. rped exclusively with one friend for like three years. (still write the same two rp threads w her!) recently came back to tumblr with this blog! have been in many many fandoms.

preferred roleplay type: as long as there's something to work with, i am content. i'm very story focused. i don't care much for threads where it's just two characters chatting about nothing, unless it's giving us juicy character exploration. i prefer threads with some kind of conflict, whether it be internal, between two characters, or a third party/impending doom/secret/whatever. it doesn't have to be action based, but i think all stories do need something going on. as long as there's something, i'm happy. i'm not very good at this, but i also really like threads with strong environments! i suck at remembering to describe places, but i like a nice setting. i think it makes it more fun and vivid, and you can do cool symbolism and metaphors with a good setting. trying to get better at this bc sometimes i feel like i write characters in a void rather than a solid, grounded place. so if my partner is good at establishing setting, it makes me happy bc i feel like i'm learning lmao

pet peeves & dealbreakers: ooc dramaaaa. it is my biggest dealbreaker. also this is a minor pet peeve and hasn't really come up here, but i must warn you all that i am not a hayden simp. please don't assume i am just bc i write anakin. love him as anakin! great actor! but idrk him and i don't want to talk for hours about how hot he is. i'm a lesbian, and i'm just not interested in talking about the hotness of men really at all, let alone in excess. i won't stop you from talking about it, but i just can't sometimes. a boundary i have. i'll talk about my love for anakin all day any day tho.

plot or memes: both! i will say that memes can sometimes get the ball rolling faster, especially if the characters have an established dynamic or common setting! that being said, i do love plotting just as much! never feel scared to reach out to me to discuss a plot or dynamic! i'm down. and unless otherwise specified, you're more than welcome to continue any meme without asking! i try to write them with potential continuation in mind

long replies or short replies: i don't really mind length, but i do gravitate to multi-para. one-liners are great starting points, but i naturally expand. i don't vibe with blabbing just for the sake of matching length, though. anakin is a talker, so a lot of my replies do have a bit of dialogue! however, whatever i feel the reply needs is what the reply gets, and i hope my partners do the same! there's no pressure to match length, as long as there's something to work with, yk?

best time to write: it really depends! my work schedule fluctuates quite a bit. for me, as long as im (a) not tired, (b) have a quiet environment, and (c) am in a somewhat good mood, i can write something. the thing that hinders my writing most frequently is stress or sleepiness.

are you like your muse?: i think we all are in some ways. there is a reason we chose to write or create the characters we did. my writing is obviously rooted in how i see the world, and through that, how i see ani. there will always be a part of me in the way i write anakin. we have very different life experiences, reactions, and perspectives on things, but i love that boy.

tagging: anyone who sees this and wishes to fill it out! tag me! it's good to get to know one another

Good Day Greywood Residents:

We'd like to thank everyone for their creative input in building up this world, you've really fleshed things out and made this little group feel like a real township. So much history has already been made since it's creation and we want to take a moment to appreciate that and you (the writers) for your efforts. At this time, it is with some sadness that we (the mods) are going to be putting Greywood on a mod-related hiatus. Due to personal reasons, both of the mods sadly no longer have the capacity to moderate this group at this time. We do not want to discourage anyone from writing and continuing their stories that they've established, so feel free to continue writing between each other here, for as long as you like and at your own creative leisure. Do not feel like this is a request to stop using the dash because of this announcement, it will remain a home and open to your existing characters for as long as you like!

What this means for the group is no new applications will be reviewed and accepted, there will be no updates, events and no activity checks for the time being.

We hope you all can understand and thank you all.

Mod Kim & Sandra

***

After the formal announcement above, from here on is a little elaboration on why I personally (Sandra) had come to this decision. Although I love Greywood dearly, I have found myself feeling it not give back as much as I believe I gave to it. Despite attempting to do what I believe was my best to create an enriching roleplay writing environment for myself and others to enjoy, it seems as though a number of people lately had found it difficult to fit their characters in or keep up their muse, and this resulted in seeking a better place for that upon leaving Greywood. It was a bit puzzling to me why this happened, as at some point we as a group grew exceptionally and had over 70 OCs available and quite a number of writers to connect with as well.

It is understandable to look to other options when muse does not thrive in a certain enviroment but unfortunantely it was also discouraging for me to see this as a mod of this group. As a result, I will admit that modding had become a stressful and somewhat disappointing experience for me lately. I do not mean to share this to make anyone feel bad, I just personally feel that some clarity and honesty goes a long way and can perhaps lead to a better understanding.

All the above being said, this does not mean that I will not maybe return to Greywood some day, when I feel ready to pick it up again as a mod. But I would also like to call upon my right as a writer to explore other options too. Perhaps Greywood will experience a revamp or I may in the future offer up another setting for a group RP that I will be more capable to creatively invest in and that will hopefully keep people's interest for longer. This is TBD.

In the meanwhile, thank you for listening to my rant and please continue to enjoy your stay here, even though Greywood will be silent for the time being. Discord group will also remain open and please know that you are always free to reach out to me through there as well. This is also my invitation to any and all who would like to provide their feedback, suggestions, advice, share grievances or experiences, or anything at all. Listening to what you might want to share will be a valuable advice to me for the future.

Once again, thank you for reading through and thank you for being a part of Greywood and I hope that whatever the future brings, we keep finding ways to create stories together.

As always, happy writing!

Sandra

This is not goodbye, rather a see you next time ~ ❤️

[quietlyblooms]

loss as a motivator is a constant in chiyo's narrative, though it isn't always a positive motivator. in her main verse, it's definitely negative bc as she loses friendships, she pushes herself to become untouchable. no one can hurt her if they cannot touch her heart. fear of loss continues to motivate her to remain distant from the world, a singular person in a vast garden that she can't hope to maintain all on her own. loss changes her, makes her stronger in some ways, but it ultimately hurts her.

in verses such as her b.nha and j.jk verses, experiencing the loss of people close to her motivates chiyo to become better, stronger, more proactive in her communities. she wants to help the youth who are going through what she did. she wants to stop students from experiencing the same hardships. she wants to break the cycles she was apart of, once upon a time. it's a very different experience, though some of her same faults still exist in these au's.

i really, really love this aspect of rp, though :' )) and it's also why i love writing chiyo bc her development is heavily affected by her environment and peers. it's not that she has a malleable personality, but it's that she's someone who needs people. in her main verse, she doesn't have a community/support system outside of her family, really. b.nha and j.jk are different bc she's in a network of heroes/teachers/sorcerers/etc. who need each other to make it. even if she struggles to be vulnerable and reach out, she still has people around her. and it makes me so!!!!! excited thinking about these differences and parallels okay :' )))
