[olive-blanche]

been seeing you everywhere and asking shit about some kid like some weirdo. what’s your deal with this kid?

— @morganinez

Ah, Morgan. Just the young lady I've been meaning to talk to.

I'm looking for a boy named Vincent. White hair, green or blue eyes, around twelve years old. You know him?

[yourfavouritemimic]

That's CRAZY!!! Ohmygosh yeah people associated with the Bat seem to love tall buildings for some reason!?? Do they work like Santa!? You leave something else and they stop by and say hi!!!? Since you're a good person you should totally try it out!!!! One of my classmates said the current Robin left them a cat-!!!? SOFUN!!

Red Hood is QUESTIONABLE!! But he's interesting! Idontknowwhyhekills but it's definitely interesting to hear about-!!? I avoid him too, Idontwannabeshot but without guns he MIGHT be cool :0!?

You LIKE Red Robin!!!? HE'SLOWKEYTERRIFYING!!! He KNOWSSSSS stuff- like he knows EVERYTHING!!!! Like how do you survive a guy who knows everything 😢!?

- @yourfavouritemimic ⋆

I’m just a normal civilian haha, so I rarely run into issues with him!

If Im chill and don’t try to kill people he’s just cool and will randomly pass out on my rooftop.

Except that one time he cheered on Red Hood for killing someone in front of my apartment.

Not cool.

Sometimes I wish I could be more like my brothers…

Wish I was agile as Dick ( @circus-champion )

Strong like Jason (I don’t know any Jason to blogs ).

Smart as Tim ( @not-redrobin / @stray-tim )

And as talented as Damian ( @feral-damian-wayne )

I just… don’t feel special.

[olive-blanche]

Vincent?

- @jamie-todd-red-knight

Yes, Vincent.

12 years old, white hair, has green or blue eyes curtesy of his parentage. Unsure of his exact whereabouts or what he goes by now.

Do you know where I could find him?

[tom-cobalt]

My brothers always judged me for my taste in men. It isn’t that bad! Look, my first boyfriend need up being a narcissist, yes. Is Hardin from After my dream boyfriend? Yes. Do I think I can fix any bad boy with my love? Yes! But there is nothing wrong with any of it!

[oh, sweetie, who are you fooling here]

[OOC yeah, roleplaying isn’t easy. Specially in Tom’s case here. Remember that, in canon, Tom’s trapped in a corrupt organization with unhealthy competition, adults torturing kids, animals, and humans they don’t see as important and worse. That’s why I though the blog was interesting. To show the insides of the Green Light Lab. It’s not a RP for everyone. Let’s also not forget Tom has serious family trauma. This blog isn’t light and if you are not up to roleplaying with me, don’t.]

ooc.

Just a little roleplay etiquette housekeeping!

tl;dr:

Don't harass, abuse or suicide bait real people ooc.

Roleplay can get very intense, try to tag comprehensively and negotiate boundaries ooc.

Let someone know if their tags break.

You can stop a roleplay anytime you need to or want to.

If someone ignores your ooc boundaries, block them.

You don't need a reason to block someone.

Firstly, ooc we should always treat each other with respect, dignity and kindness. We don't harass one another, we don't abuse one another, and we absolutely do not encourage harm to each other.

No matter what happens inside a roleplay, no matter if we think we're right, no matter if we think a person deserves it, no matter what:

Do not abuse real people.

I specify real or ooc here because yes, roleplay can get pretty dark and that's okay too.

Roleplay can involve a lot of dark and intense themes, and it's part of what makes writing so good, but we also need to make sure the audience (readers) and our roleplay partners (writers) have tools to keep themselves safe and withdraw consent if they need to.

Tagging is a big part of this, and if in doubt, I always say tag. But it's not infallible: sometimes we miss a tag, or forget, or tumblr eats the tags, these things happen! We can help each other out by reminding or requesting a tag, and then scrolling past.

However, more important than tagging is communication and boundary setting. Even if it doesn't seem like it, roleplay involves a lot of behind-the-scenes communication and ooc consent!

If you're unsure if a plot point is too intense, ask ask ask.

"I don't want to rp this story" is a complete and final sentence.

Remember that saying 'stop' ic isn't the same as saying it 'ooc', though!

(This is even more the case with morally grey, or even villain characters. Asking the Joker not to dip someone in acid may or may not work, but asking his writer should always be a sure thing!)

For example;

If I'm writing with a Joker and Batman is beating the snot out of him, and the Joker yells stop, Batman might not stop- but if the mun says stop, we stop.

From there, the Joker's mun and I could talk about if we wanted to change the direction of the roleplay, or even if we just wanted to end it there- or if we want to retcon it and delete the whole thread!

The Joker Mun could even choose to block me here if I've made them so uncomfortable they don't feel safe roleplaying with me. It is always okay to block.

And if someone doesn't listen to you when you say stop, you absolutely can and should block.

[pinkest-mf-in-gotham]

EMERGENCY EMERGENCY!!!!!

EVERYONE IN GOTHAM NEEDS TO SEE MY PRECIOUS BABIES!!!

HAVE YOU SEEN PRINCESS & PRINCE??

NOW YOU HAVE!

[spencerwayne-todd]

All Lex Luthor haters tap in

[helenawayne-thechesirecat]

Jason: I fucking hate Batman

Someone outside the fam: Yeah Batman’s a total-

Jason: HOW FUcKinG DaRE you! That’s my father you’re talking about

I feel like we all do this tho.

[tom-cobalt]

Look, I know looking back, joining the Green Light Lab wasn’t my smartest decision.

But, you guys are literally one of our deadliest rivals, why follow me?!

ooc: you know you did something when this blog starts following you

[gothamite-shenanigans]

anyways after that we finished making fajitas and packed Hood a tupperware for the rest of the Batfam :)
