♥ What’s the absolute best experience you’ve had in RP?

already answered

♦ What’s your favorite thing about RP, generally?

i want to say world building again, but it’s also just interacting with people from all over the world and forming bonds and friendships with people through a screen as we write and love our muses. and how like..it usually doesn’t matter who you love or hate because it just matters who and what you’re writing??? 

♚ Have you ever made any lasting friends through RP? 

I’ve known @loveisaviolence @magicsiphon @karnifek @veriisimilitude and @stcrmdoors for years now and wouldn’t trade one moment

⚜ Have you ever met anyone from RP in real life?

✮ Do you think you’ve improved as a writer through roleplaying?

as a general rule i’ll go with yes? writing with other people definitely pushes me to want to be better and write better to be worthy. i think it’s definitely pushed my creativity bc i swear i am the least creative person in the entire world and that’s ... really hard for the life of a writer lmao. but tumblr rp definitely inspires me to be a better..content writer. when it comes to grammar.....that has significantly decreased but that might also just be my laziness hahah 

☄ Has roleplay positively affected your life in some ways?

short answer: absolutely. despite how horrible this website can be at times, tumblr rp has positively impacted me because i’m surrounded by like-minded people bound together by their love of wrting, and i think that’s beautiful. i’ll always be grateful for tumblr bc it’s giving me some of my closest friends from all over the country or world, and there aren’t many people who can casually in conversation say something like “my best friend lives in vegas” or “my friend from new Zealand” and you find a way to make it work even with time zone differences and yeah. 

☯ Tell us all about your favorite muse you’ve ever written and why they meant so much to you.

technically already answered but let me rant about my boy bellamy blake now and my girl jessica davis because both are hated and i love them both with all my heart.

anyway bellamy blake deserves the world and really just needs a long ass nap. his entire life from the moment o was born has been dedicated to her ( thanks mom ! ) and he’s taken that role so seriously even when it’s wrong, even when it’s weird. and pretty much every action he does is a direct result of his love for her?? but also he has this fierce loyalty streak and is completely enamored with his people. and that’s really why he means so much to me. bellamy has such a good heart and he loves so fiercely and when it comes down to it: bell is loyal to people not causes. also he’s one of the best shots like..ever?? and that alone is just really impressive like your fave could never. anyway, bellamy blake is really important to me. 

jessica is also really important to me because she’s so imperfect. and it’s almost inspiring because it’s so easy to hate her for these flaws. but she’s such a product of her society and she’s truly embraced this idea that she needs to fit in, which is funny because when we met her, she didn’t want that. she didn’t want attachments or to be popular because she was so used to her dad getting stationed elsewhere and her having to leave an say goodbye to whatever friends she made, and it was hard. and like, i’ve been completely stationary my entire life and can’t even begin to imagine what that is like nor would i try because until college, my biggest move was from one town to the next, a whole whopping 7 minutes. anyway, as i was saying, it’s really easy to jump to conclusions and hate jessica because she’s rash and strong and believes that she’s only as good as what people see her for ( she’s only worth something if she’s popular and liked, she only matters if guys want to have sex with her, it matters that people find her pretty, etc ) and when things start going downhill and she doesn’t know whether to trust her false memories and a girl who used to be her best friend or her boyfriend and what was easier to believe, she was allowed to be angry. she was allowed to be resentful, but more than that, she was allowed to pretty much pull a gun on her abuser and she’s allowed to be angry and resentful and tell justin that she never wants to see him again AND BASICALLY SHE’S ALLOWED TO BE HUMAN AND HAVE FEELINGS AND BE ANGRY AND LOSE IT AND TAKE A DOWNWARD SPIRAL AND SHE’S ALLOWED TO TELL HER EX WHO LIED TO HER FOR MONTHS AND CHOSE HER ABUSER OVER HER OFF. SHE’S JUST ALLOWED TO BE REAL AND STRUGGLE AND PEOPLE BLAME HER FOR HER ACTIONS AND HER RIGHT TO BE ANGRY BUT GOD IT’S SUCH A BLESSING TO SEE AND IT’S SO IMPORTANT FOR ME TO SEE THIS REP? BECAUSE NOT ONLY DO WE GET SOMEONE SO TERRIBLY FLAWED AND PRONE TO LASHING OUT PHYSICALLY AGAINST PEOPLE ( SHE SLAPPED HANNAH AND BEAT JUSTINS CHEST AND THREW METAL PIECES AT HIM AND DESTROYED THE LIGHTBULB WHILE PRETTY DRUNK ON SCHOOL GROUNDS ) SHE STILL REALLY CARES ABOUT PEOPLE LIKE WHEN ALEX WAS HURTING AND SHE WAS ACTIVELY WORRIED ABOUT HIS SAFETY AND WHETHER HE WAS OKAY, BUT SOMETHING TERRIBLE HAPPENS TO HER AND IT’S ABOUT HER. IT’S ABOUT HER ANGER. IT’S ABOUT HER TRAUMA. AND SHE DOESN’T NEED TO FORGIVE HER ABUSERS AND BE NICE TO HER EX BECAUSE ~~HE WAS TRYING TO PROTECT HER. and basically i resonate with her really well and people have told me that i need to chill and forgive and i’m just really glad to see someone who isn’t told that, whose narrative isn’t about that cough pll cough. 

☼ Have you learned any new skills from being involved in RP (coding, editing, making GIFs, etc)? 

already answered

☀ Have you ever joined a new fandom that you only discovered through RP?

i don’t think so? not rp specifically at least. like tumblr turned me on to tw and t100 and sense8 but i don’t think rp ever did? 

♨ What unlikely, ‘only possible in RP’ ships have you enjoyed writing with your muses?

pretty much every ship i write is only possible in rp lmao. the big ones that come to mind are deff like...everything I write with @loveisaviolence love u boo bc like where else am i gonna get bellamy blake and tasha ozera or bellamy blake and rose hathaway? not to mention christian and lissa actually acknowledging that lissa has to kill tasha lmao. not to mention anything with ocs like yours or @coldgirled and i love it?? writing only possible in rp stuff bc it’s one of the best things about this. being turned on to characters you don’t know and creating relationships, not necessarily romantic, with them. 

❀ What is your favorite thing about your current fandom or RP community?

i mean everyone’s general salt toward the pll finale was nice lmao. my fave thing about my pll dash for sure is the fact that everyone would die for spencer hastings and like, i relate. also the anti-ezra dash i have is also pretty amazing because I RELATE. so yeah basically bless you for that
