#honestly the discord is pretty quiet mostly

[bomber-grl]

Hiro x very famous reader ♡

Pairing(s): Hiro Hamada x Gn!Reader

Hiro had always seen you on tv, the internet and basically all over the advertisements around the Lucky Cat Cafe

He never really had an opinion on you until you acted/ participated in the creation of one of his favorite shows and that’s when he became interested in who you are.

Plus it didn’t exactly help that Cass was pretty interested in your career

Mostly because you ended up in a cooking show, somehow

Well one day Hiro had the day off and decided to be good nephew and help around the cafe despite Cass’s protests

He was serving and taking orders like usual until he arrived at your table

You were wearing sunglasses, a hat and a hoodie

What a disguise

Well either way you were really sweet to him

And as he was about to leave after he had given you your order he had realized you were none other than the well known y/n of your industry

It didn’t exactly help that his face gave away his realization because you then asked him to sit down in front of you in your corner of the cafe and asked him to please keep quiet.

He agreed, and although the both of you made good conversation he still had to finish up the day.

So after the rest of the customers left and they were about to close for the day you two exchanged numbers/ more realistically discords and a friendship soon blossomed

It was admittedly difficult to keep up and be able to take a breath from being your friend

I mean one day he’s texting you and you text back the almost instantly

But then he sends another text and his text is left on delivered for two days straight

Then, comes the whiplash of being told “I’m so sorry for not replying, I was in South Korea but now I’m in France 😭”

So yea definitely whiplash

And honestly a jumpscare

But what really surprised him was how similar you two were

You were, if not more, nerdy than he was

And it was honestly really endearing

Because of how many shared interests you have it got to the point where you’d be face timing almost all the time

Now, if you manage to somehow make some time and hang out with Hiro it would probably be on his birthday or a random day for a surprise visit

Either way, Fred or honestly all his friends were probably in on it

(I said Fred specifically cuz his family is rich rich)

The two of you decide to bake for fun and that’s when Cass had gotten back from some errands

Once the shock passes, she’s ecstatic at meeting you and asks for an autograph

Finding out you and Hiro had been friends for so long really shocked her and made her tease Hiro by saying that he wanted you all to himself

Which really flusters him, and when he tries to find some cover from all the teasing?

You jump in on it

Honestly when/ if (I put when because it’s more likely) hiro gets a crush on you he confesses

And eventually the two of you get into a relationship

Obviously you have to keep quiet but when it’s exposed to the media then unfortunately Cass and Hiro are the ones that have to pay for it

Paparazzi immediately bombard the cafe causing them to close business

You were obviously furious and it was eventually resolved when you threatened to end the paparazzi’s careers

(Which caused a huge controversy)

Eventually you’ll have to manage for a more manageable schedule

Maybe even retire, I mean you were so famous you were in South Korea and France the next, you have enough money for the rest of your life

From this you start being/living around Hiro and the two of you continue with your now stable relationship

Wait, uh, I should've asked about who the other prisoners in Rhodagram with you are? May I ask about them? Unless that's a little too personal, then!

Ah, that’s alright! I don’t mind!! I’ll start in the ascending order then.

[ ALL TRIAL 1 DESIGNS ARE BY @/FIMIKORU AND ANGELSTR ON DISCORD ]

Hm.. prisoner number 1 would be Hoshida (Kanato)! He’s from what I know a pretty anti-social person with that gloomy aura, usually coops up in his cell all day to nap while Chesya tries to get him outta there..

The second would be Kasumi (Shibata), she’s really nice especially towards Minato! I really appreciate that considering he’s kind of shy.

Third would be me, so let’s skip! Then Natsumi (Shoji). Well, I don’t like her honestly. She just.. gives me the ick — plus she’s really annoying too. I don’t like her attitude towards Minato.

Rin (Nan)! Sometimes I wonder what he did to end up here… he’s only 10! He’s usually quiet but he talks sometimes, I think he likes to draw a lot though.

Fuji (Saori), she’s pretty chill! Nothing much I suppose, cool to hang around with though.

And Minato (Okuya)! My twin brother, I love him so much. He was really anxious and kept hiding behind me at first when Rhodagram was foreign to us.. but he’s gotten better! And I’m proud of him for that.

Then Eri (Takahashi), she’s also really caring like Kasumi too! She sometimes bakes stuff for us too, and they’re really yummy.

Ninth, Chesya (Ikeda)! He plays with me and Minato sometimes but mostly plays with Hoshida instead, wonder why… It was as if ermm, interest at first sight!

Finally, Yuna (Makino)! I’ve tried to interact with her sometimes but she seems to constantly busy herself with studying, so it didn’t work out…

Either way, I hope you know more about them now!

[irresistiibles]

beneath the cut is a far too long event starter/plot call! feel free to like this and i will come bother you on discord probably tomorrow. this is also a starter call, though i definitely tend to prefer plotting first you're welcome to just hop in and request things with that being said i'm working on clearing out a lot of my older threads. if you request two people we previously had a thread for i will probably drop the old one unless it is extremely plot heavy, and in general i am going to use the event as a way to clear out my older things that have been reaching an end.

amber: not too worried, but could definitely get it in her head that she should go out and play detective to help people and try to drag others into the nonsense as well

asami sato: she pays for a good security system and knows several different ways to defend herself. she's a little on edge just because it's yet another thing and she's tired, but is mostly feeling alright all things considered.

ciel phantomhive: also pays for good security and isn't letting himself stress out too much, or at least that's how he's coming off. will be pretty dismissive towards anyone that brings it up but potentially go looking for answers on his own.

starters (1/?): lizzie midford

columbina: she's amused more than anything i'm afraid. really, if you're going to kill someone she thinks you should do it with a bit more tact or care, but she's got morbid interests and could definitely be found looking for, or even tampering with evidence, more for amusement rather than answers though.

emily daivs: very unhappy and a little harsly paranoid about it. she's already worked way too hard to survive, she is not letting just some nobody in washington take her out. with that said she's going to be pretty careful around jsut about anyone. if she doesn't know you she doesn't trust you and she wants you at least five feet away from her at all times.

esther mckinnon: tired of these things happening, but not making too many changes in her life to be careful. she's going to text the family and try and make sure they're all good but beyond that she doesn't want to let some weirdness change her day to day life and make things unbearable. it's not that she doesn't care but she can't halt her life every two months when washington gets wild

starters (1/?): marlene mckinnon

gerard of greenleigh: anxious frog dad continues to be anxious, sort of. listen, murders aren't exactly new considering the life he was living back home, but still! everyone here is making it sound like a big deal so he feels like it's a big deal!! he is not investigating at all. he is trying to make sure ylfa and ros are safe and then just keep his nose out of it

starters (1/?): ylfa

glinda upland: honestly? she knows she is not the type to solve a murder. she is trying to stay out of it, and just not be lurking around alone. will drag people to do just about anything with her so that there's safety in numbers, but that's about it. she's not getting too worked up by it. she'll talk theories with some people but she won't be good at it and may just confuse everyone involved

starters (1/?): irina denali

gu zi: concerned for sure, but also doesn't know what he could actually do about it. checking in on the people he knows, but otherwise is trying to stay out of it and let the authorities handle it

inej ghafa: so many concerns. first and foremost she's looking out for her people, especially the unaware ones who might not be able to defend themselves as well. after that she's definitely doing a lot of lurking, trying to grab whatever information she can. she means well and will try and help people if it's ever needed, and is sort of looking into things, but from a much more quiet point of view. she's not throwing herself into it for everyone to see

starters (1/?) : jesper fahey

jin ling: tired! will threaten to fight if you seem weird even though he shouldn't! trying to keep track of seven thousand family members. not going anywhere without his dog who will attack on command. he's worked up but what else is new

starters (1/?): wei wuxian

lily evans: trying!! to stay out of it. she's nosy, and has a good sense of judgement, so she could wind up looking into things and being involved even though she knows it's not the smart thing to do, but her intention truly is to keep her distance and let the authorities handle it.

luo qingyang: another one who would like to avoid drama as much as possible. this isn't her problem, though she'll definitely be a little more defensive. carrying her sword around more than normal and will pull it out if it feels necessary, but not running around trying to solve and fucking mysteries.

madoka kaname: very stressed! wants to help but doesn't really know how. honestly she's mostly staying out of it but if you catch her near a murder sight or evidence she would be very easy to talk into investigating cause she wants to do the write thing

starters (1/?): homura akemi

mei nianqing: tired. looking for jun wu cause man is convinced he has something to do with all of this, but isn't doing a lot to actively solve or fix anything outside of that. this is a problem for younger people

nico di angelo: mostly uncaring. he doesn't think anyone's gonna come kill him and even if they do like ? cool he apparently comes right back. he's worried about his sisters but beyond that man is truly chilling with mcdonalds. life goes on.

nie huaisang: keeping up with the news but beyond that staying out of it. this is an art student, what the fuck is he supposed to do about it. if you approach him and he thinks you seem shady he will absolutely start screaming at the top of his lungs with zero remorse. he would rather be an annoying idiot than dead. can talk theory and be pretty smart about it if you make him focus long enough.

pearl: this is a human problem which means it's not her problem, though she also doesn't respect the cops and would tamper with evidence on the basis of like "i can definitely figure this out faster how has no one been caught yet." will investigate if she's around the area or someone asks her to but isn't going out of her way to do it

princess zelda: is this her problem? no. is zelda a nosy little know-it-all who will have a hard time completely staying away from it? absolutely yes. she knows it's not the smart thing but will keep trying to head around areas where bodies were found and look around. someone please either get her to relax or encourage the bad behavior.

shang qinghua: highkey staying out of it. this just is not his problem, and he's not investigating murders without any money being offered. honestly, he is not that worried. like he'll carry a knife with him in case but he's surprisingly good at surviving, and he doesn't consider himself particularly fun to murder. just don't sneak up on him for the next two weeks or you might wind up with an accidental stab wound

starters (1/?): qi yan

shi qingxuan: trying to stay out of it. a little worried that one of the two morally dubious people she's close to could be involved somehow but absolutely does not want to ask. qingxuan is head empty though and is relatively still way too trustworthy throughout this whole thing and would be way too easy to murder.

starters (1/?): ling wen

toph beifong: relatively unbothered. toph can take care of herself and knows that. confident she could body like anyone in washington if need be. if someone wants to play detective they'll take backup for fun, but isn't going to run in and do anything herself out of the blue.

starters: (2/?): ty lee, katara

victor nikiforov: another fool who is way too casual about the whole thing. sure there's murderers out there but he's still gonna go out and do his thing. why would they come after him? he's too handsom to be murdered. someone should probably attempt to talk some sense into him. he's not investigating, but if he comes across anything that feels weird he will post on instagram about it

yin yu: he's not investigating unless he's explicitly told to. he tries to be a good person, but he's pretty sure you don't need to jump into solving a murder to qualify for that. a little careful because he's the type to keep to quieter areas and the shadows and probably realizes that maybe he has to go out into crowds more until this is handled, but that's his biggest struggle. will tell people to chill and not run in and play hero if he has to

zagreus: speaking of running in and playing hero, this man absolutely would be like "alright, i have to lend and hand and solve things!" sticking his nose anywhere and everywhere, sharing theories with people, being way up in people's faces about getting things solved. he's annoying but he means well.

zhongli: another tired old man. he's trying to keep the people he cares about safe, especially since a lot (if not all) of them are young and reckless and he knows they're going to run head first into this stuff. he's not investigating, but does have a lot of knowledge and is happy to sit and talk theories with anyone who is.

starters (1/?): amelia shepherd

[derangedhyena-zoids]

ZOIDS YOU SAY?

I don’t know what to ask, I just like hearing someone say zoids. XD; hmmm…

Here’s one: how are zoids (the pilot-able ones) made/born in your universe?

Do you know if there’s a cannon way they’re made beyond just “zoids Eve done it”?

When you get your lore, do you get it mostly from the show, battle story, manga, or somewhere else? What are your thoughts on how the anime/battle story/etc varies? (Like, do you get frustrated (I do… ;_; no matter what, I’m always wrong, it makes me sad) or do you consider them like … alternate universes from each other, or what?)

I might think of more later… I just wanna hear you talk about zoids. :3

:D I actually did a post about that first one already - this here! Canon - well, to mix in with your later question, canon varies. With the sole exception of CC/GF/NC0 all being part of the same canon, I think (and objective evidence points to) every other thing is its own, separate canon. Except maybe Wild Zero. As far as Zoid Eve goes I think Zoidians actually have a fundamental misunderstanding of it and that Fiona was wrong, but she so fervently believed what she believed, Van & co believed it. If that makes sense. The toy/Battle Story(?) background materials (many of which can be found on The Iron Bible) have small mentions of how wild Zoids reproduce, and how folks "tamed"/brought them into modern use. But those background materials don't mesh well/at all with the other canons. Unhelpfully, most other canons don't seem keen to explain these basics. Probably because it's supposed to be a kids' show/toyline and most explanations (especially ones that are logical outgrowths of what little canon does say) get dark FAST. CC/GF pretty clearly shares a lot of material with the Battle Story, so it's tempting to put them together. I think a lot of folks do? But BS has huge, fundamental swaths of incompatibility with the anime, so... I personally don't blend them (though I did consider adding Wolff into my canon for a while. But, no.) The manga is off in its own weird world. I love the art, but I do not vibe with its particular story and setting. I think it has an explanation about where Zoids come from but I honestly don't know it well enough to recite it because Zeke being a magic anime girl just doesn't work for me My hc lore is anime-centric, so I prioritize making the anime internally consistent. I use the toy/Battle Story lore where it works and just make shit up everywhere else. I'd say my hc lore is 50% extrapolation from the anime(s), 10% Other Zoids Canon and 40% Shit I Made Up. My thoughts on the wild incompatibility of the various canons...? Ehhh, we have a meme on the Zoids Discord:

...which is kind of how I view it, it needn't be frustrating. Of course, if you want to combine all the various shows together? I can see how it'd be frustrating. I don't do that, I don't see any way to make it function, but more power to the folks who want to do that. I would like to Talk About Zoids more, but when I get to working on the things that take time (commissions, fic, comics, etc) it makes me quiet on here. I don't want people to think I am not around! Just I can't necessarily blather about what I'm thinking about because it'd be spoilers. :v

[foundfamilywhump]

Hello! It's depressing as hell to hear that transphobia is a thing within the whump community. Sorry you had this experience, since it's mostly a pretty welcoming space, though Discord servers are always just... a gamble. Do you have any screenshots of your interaction with that user? Or a timestamp on the server? I swear it's not because I want to find out who that was and bully them (tempting), but things like this can be very quickly erased by Discord mods and it's best to have a record of it

there's some pretty insidious stuff under the surface of the whump community in an unfortunate number of places tbh. (sometimes not even really under the surface honestly, i was poking around yesterday and saw someone whose whump blog had a description 'no [specific race] whump' and 'if you value diversity fuck off' essentially and i was like ah, right, saying the quiet part out loud i see lmao) like. there's a lot of..... presumptive cis-ness and whiteness and maleness going around and if any of that is ever. not even challenged but pointed out, a lot of people do not like it. and there's a lot of just. people saying with their whole chest 'i don't like reading/writing/watching media about women/people of colour/trans people.'

which like. i'm not going to litigate people's interests, but what i will say is that if you only want to engage with media about white cis men please feel free to just do that and not Say It Out Loud. trust me, it's plenty clear enough without saying it directly, and there's no reason to do that except to be validated and back-patted about not wanting to care about characters that aren't white cis men. just.... enjoy what you enjoy and be quiet about it lmao. there's a broader conversation to be had about where those preferences came from, but people get even more upset if you talk about that, so i'll just leave my broader assessment of the state of the whump community and its kind of. undercurrent of bigotry at that.

i do have some screenshots, yes! i don't know if i have the original conversation anymore from the server itself, the initial interaction with the transphobe, but honestly the most concerning part of the whole experience and the reason i made the psa post i did about it was the way that the server owner and mod team of whump lovers collaborate handled the situation. that i do have screenshots of - of what the server owner said to other people when blaming me for what happened and whining about being asked to handle a bigot in any way, etc, and of the mods i spoke to basically shrugging and going 'yeah it sucks but you're being sooooo mean to me by saying i've endorsed transphobia by being completely silent as it happens and then continuing to be silent as the server owner makes a 'no fighting >:(' rule and says Everyone Is Being A Bummer! Stop It! in the announcements.'

[gildinbainas]

name: dani, the mfkn og pharaoh and dragon queen 💞

pronouns: she/her or they/them idc really

preference of communication: asks or tumblr IM. i have discord, but honestly, I've had way too many experiences of people wanting to chat until they get a hard no from me on something they want to explore in RP and I don't. so disc is reserved for mostly friends now :/

experience / how many years: i'm not really sure. i'm sure i've been here about 10 years? or 10+ years but i've been kinda off and on so idk. we'll say 10+ for tumblr. as far as RPing goes, its been longer because i started in high school. a girl introduced me to chat style RP and then para RPing in forums and then later facebo/ok. so i've got plenty of experience all around.

rp pet peeves: people who roll up on my blog waxing poetics and everything is fine until they propose something that i don't want to do? usually it involves smut, or forcing my muse into a role they're not comfortable in or pushing for storylines that don't really connect with me or my character. --- stalking. --- getting mad because i ship with only one version of certain characters --- trying to make me jealous because i may not have time or the inspiration to give you my undivided attention all the time --- BIG GIFS --- smut blogs that only want to bottom

fluff, angst, or smut: i LOVE fluff. too much angst bores me. i like action. smut IF there's a strong chemistry between our characters in canon and in writing. but im a whore for fluffy / slice of life shit

long or short replies: i tend to write long ass novella stuff with my mains and can get bored easily with short things if the conversation isn't good if we're threading. i do try to keep some short stuff in the mix but my threads tend to be pretty long and im liable to ignore people who only do short things. its just not my thing

time to write: none. i literally have zero time to fucking write these days. i pop on when i can and cater to those who continuously show interest.

are you like your muses: LOLOLOLOLOLOL weeeeeeell i guess if i had to say im like one of my muses, its probably atem. we're both sus af of people. don't like being touched without permission. no time for stupid people. no time for endless drama. we are quick tempered. hold grudges ( working on that though ). um... he has more girly habits than i do though.---and i guess you could say like charles, im probably too nice at times? and a pacifist at heart. dont think i could ever hurt someone. its just not in me to hurt people unless im like atem and verbally annihilating them from a to z when mad. or beating them senseless in a children's card game --- oh and at home im pretty quiet like atem / gaara. i speak only when necessary in large gatherings so there you go.

KNOWING YOUR PARTNER WELL CAN POTENTIALLY MAKE WRITING TOGETHER A LOT EASIER. ( REPOST DO NOT REBLOG ! )

○  NAME: Erin // Xy.

○  PRONOUNS: he/him

○   PREFERENCE OF COMMUNICATION: Discord or Tumblr, either or is completely fine. I reply to both the same, tho im slow.

○    NAME OF MUSE(S): Malfatto, William de Saint-Prix, Nightstalker Joe, wow i’m really going down the basic names now, I roleplayed artorias and pate from dks but not anymore. I also muse Verulo and a small amount of Illario from acb but on the side, and more so Verulo. He’s a bit of an older muse that I did nothing with besides throw comments in for (still do, since im not sure who he fits with)

○    EXPERIENCE/HOW LONG (MONTHS/YEARS?): 10 years, off and on? Could be more tbh I’ve lost count I feel old

○    PLATFORMS YOU’VE USED: for rp, I mostly use Discord but Tumblr is nice too, when it’s functional lol

○   BEST EXPERIENCE: In General? Musing with people and creating a deep and expansive world around what little canon information we even received from Ubisoft — as well as Personal, @ardentfew @larosafatale @templarlanz @officialcahin (also w/ ur bitch ass (affectionately) baltasar) you guys have added so much to my musings and experiences to define Mal as he continues to age as my oldest muse at like 10 years now? I genuinely appreciate it wholeheartedly. These are probably my best experiences over this whole blog’s lifespan. Also I have to throw in @vilestblood, you always made me feel so welcome and appreciated as a newcomer, it really did make the whole experience for me, and while i’m over here for now, I hope you know how often i still appreciate you. I hope I can repay all of you somehow.

○    RP PET PEEVES / DEALBREAKERS: Treating my muse(s) like he’s either a sex object/disrespecting my boundaries on his sexuality, a Villain to exclusively to fit your narrative/headcanons, or automatically assuming I condone the actions of my muse just bc I am expanding on his emotions or more positive traits. as well as just seeing him as a shipping objective — Besides the fact that I am not interested in shipping Malfatto out as he is single-ship to one character and i’m more interested in defining his friendships than another spouse.

○    FLUFF, ANGST, OR SMUT: I’m a whore for angst but i’m more of a hurt-comfort kind of guy tbh, I don’t mind the pain of loss and complete defeat and hopelessness, i adore depressing themes but I do want a comforting concept to end off on. I love fluff within plot and smut is the same, I don’t particularly want just baseless smut for the sake of smut (tho it can be interesting sometimes) but if it fits well, it legit makes my heart skip djdjjhdj

○    PLOTS OR MEMES: I love memes on tumblr so much, esp as an icebreaker, but I love plotting things out more extensively so I can learn more about your characters and where they can interact more personally.

○    LONG OR SHORT REPLIES: Both but I prefer longer if the short we are talking about is like one liners. Unless we are in a very fast paced setting like discord chat, one liners make me lose muse pretty quick.

○    BEST TIME TO WRITE: Anytime I can get some quiet, I admittedly cannot write in a noisy setting. My brain is too panicked with stuff going on that I can’t zone in.

○    ARE YOU LIKE YOUR MUSE(S): I always joke around and say that he’s the kinnie so Honestly, yes? it sounds awful to relate to the serial killing doctor, who also tortures random civilians, guards, and sex workers BUT that aside, I understand his impulsivity and I understand his traumas, at least on a semi-adjacent level. We like similar things and find comfort in the same settings, though i did not expect to build him like this. I’m enough like him that I can somewhat? understand where he is coming from mentally when he does stupid impulsive shit that eventually gets his dumbass floored while also being very aware that his reactions and opinions are not something I would even consider. He’s fun he’s like the little devil on my shoulder telling me to act on impulse and commit arson when i have anxiety even over looking like i’m shoplifting

Hello!!!! Okay let's see here...

1. what’s the fic you're most proud of?

Hmmm, probably Maybe You Can't, But That's Why I'm Here, cause it was the first thing I ever had the guts to post, and it's just a nice lil hurt/comfort thing. It feels weird to say I'm particularly proud of any of my stuff though.

12. What’s your perfect environment to create/write?

Not entirely sure, but it probably involves cozy clothing, warm drinks, a quiet space to myself, and a good idea. And good music, I literally can't get anything done if it's quiet.

19. If you could write an ideal fic, what would it include?

Well, there's a part of me that really would love to have the planning skills and motivation to write a longer fic, since I mostly do one shots. It would probably be Willex cause I love them, probably a bit cheesy, and include lots of stuff where they help each other deal with stuff. All in all, I would just want it to be a good time and have a good story. I have no clue what said story would be though.

20. What’s the greatest gift you’ve gotten from your writing?

Everyone has said this, I know, but honestly it's y'all. My mutuals, my discord pals, whether they realize it or not, the people I've met through writing and betaing fics have gotten me through some pretty rough stuff the last couple years. Love y'all <3

Thanks for the ask!!!

~

name :    Eden / Doves ( I go by them interchangeably )

pronouns :    I go by any and all pronouns!! :D

pref 4 communication :    I use either tumblr IMs or discord if I’ve given it to a person! And I will admit discord is the better way to reach me overall because tumblr IMs can be pretty funky with the notification system.

name of muse(s) :    Namine and Lumine are my most active right now!! But there are more.

rp experience :    I started to roleplay in about 2019 and I’m still roleplaying to this day, which is 3 years of experience ! It’s really wild to see the changes from then to now!

best experience :    I’d have to say just meeting people here in general on this blog has been the best experience because all of my mutuals are very patient and understanding with me in which I really do honestly appreciate!! c:

pet peeves :    Not reading my rules is one way to get me a bit annoyed, I don’t have many things that get me annoyed but this is one of them, specifically because reading over a person’s rules isn’t a hard thing to do before following them especially since it’s making sure both you and the party you’re following will be comfortable with interaction by knowing boundaries.

fluff , angst , or smut :   I really love both fluff and angst SO so much, both genres are so very cool and interesting within their own ways and can make me feel a multitude of emotions. And though I will say I don’t write smut, and I wouldn’t feel comfortable with the idea of writing it as of right now, and that’s for a few reasons with one of them being because I’m a minor but that’s a given.

plots or memes :   I personally LOVE both, but it can depend on a partner because while some plotting is one of my favorite things, with others I love using memes to see how our characters respond and interact with each other raw and fresh, and even sometimes I like a mixture of both!

best time to write :   It depends on if I have school and what kind of day I’m having, but mostly I find it easier to write at night because of how much more quiet it is, it helps me focus a lot better.

are you like your muse :   To some degrees? Yeah, I’d say I’m similar to Namine and Lumine despite their very obvious differences, because while like Lumine I don’t take bullshit when it’s served to me unless I have to, but with Namine I’m like her because I literally suck in a lot of social settings unfortunately due to the fact people can be scary to even utter a word to sometimes. It doesn’t come through online as much because it’s easier to be myself around people who I know won’t mind compared to people IRL who I don’t really always have things in common with. To explain it, it’s like being curled up in a shell until I’m comfortable enough to come out and be myself, because that’s what the two of them do albeit in different ways.

Resident Evil: I haven’t finished all games, but I’m literally obsessed with it. So I’ve literally done deep dives on some characters, so I’m open to them. Just their bg are so big, it’ll take me a bit to get them done.

And anything else I might’ve added in request form, or done a bot of already.

DMS

Is my tumblr ask box open? Yep! Is my twt / Bluesky DMs open? Hopefully, if not I’ll fix it! Do I have a discord? Yes, but idk if I’ll give it yet. As I’m still working on how to understand it.

𓆌 I always try to answer, but I do get very nervous when talking to people. So if I don’t answer right away, I’m sleeping or trying to think of a response. 𓆊

With my Bluesky & Twitter account, I’m rarely active on it. Especially Bluesky since I just created that account, but I’ll try to be. At most, I just use those for looking at art and animals, so I won’t really post much!

WARNING!!

I tend to make more DeadDove themed prompts, as a way for me to get rid of my intrusive thoughts. I don’t romanticize these things IRL, and if it comes off that way I try not to. Please, PLEASE, don’t do these things IRL.

EXTRA

I really love dogs and crocodiles. Personally I might be a pet regressor, still trying to figure that out !! Though, that doesn’t mean I will make Petre bots on Janitor AI, that’s for Character AI only—if I even do that. Pet regression is completely different from pet play, so when I do pet play—I’m NOT doing a Petre bot. But instead sexual stuff, Petre is only for comfort—NOT FOR SMUT! Pls understand the differences!

I’m like, super, super, super obsessed with Godzilla. So honestly expect to find mainly Godzilla stuff on my accounts. Honestly, if I could—I would definitely decorate my profile on Janitor AI as Godzilla theme. But unfortunately, I do everything on phone, and can’t understand how to do that cool stuff.

(I have no idea how to make a pretty or neat tumblr blog….)

Quick Update 03/26/24 + The origin of this account!

Hello all, It's been a while since my last post, so I figured I'd post a short update regarding new content.

In short I'll continue to update this blog when something of note happens in Style Savvy Trend setters, but it's still been pretty quiet/slow, and with FF7:Rebirth out soon, my progress will be slow. ---

Also, I'd like to take some time to respond to a few questions that were sent in. For some reason, I can't see my question inbox, so I'll just be making a short reply based on what showed up in the email preview.

Since, I'm not sure if this person is comfortable with me sharing their name, So we'll just call them 'sender', and I'll 'find and replace' it later if they're okay with me sharing it.

Anyways, 'sender' mentioned that they have a two-week wait before they can post comments. I did not know tumbler had a wait system like that. I'm still fairly new here.

From what I've seen 'like' and 'reblogs' are the most common forms of interactions, so comments are pretty rare, (Fairly different from other social media.)

I've actually been a bit hesitant to comment on others posts because of this. (don't want to rock the boat) But anyone is free to comment here, and I'm open to constructive criticism as well. So if you have an idea of how an outfit could look better (in the style I'm going for) feel free to let me know!

---

'Sender' Also mentioned various setups I could use to make playing ' MODEL Debut 3' easier. Holding up my phone to my pc screen was very uncomfortable, so their suggestion of using a phone tripod setup would have helped a lot, if I go back to the game, I'll give it a shot!

---

'Senders' Third message mentioned how they'd been enjoying reading through the content I'd been posting, including both the game commentary, and the sections that tied it into some of my related personal stories.

And that really meant a lot to me, I honestly considered just switching to 'Outfit of the day' style posts, as in a comment-lite platform like this, it was hard to see what from the content people enjoyed most.

This is why I started front-loading a lot of the outfit pics, After posting them, I'd add a line or two about what happened that day (in-game) as a quick summary, then I'd say "hmm, maybe I should explain a little more about thought process behind the outfit", followed by "ok, but wow, X was done way better (or worse) here compared to Fashion Forward", and next thing I knew hour and hour had passed, XD

As for the little personal stories and connections to my experiences with fashion, and why these games mean so much to me, that has its own story behind it, (buckle up!)

---- /!\ Caution: End of blog updates, Mostly unedited Ramblings beyond this point /!\

The short version is, a few years back I was looking for a way to try to practice being more social, and open about stuff. Normally people would just post online to do that, but I'd been using the same online name since high school, so most the people I knew IRL new it, and it was used on all my social media/online games.

And as it was prime covid time, everyone I knew irl was at home on social media, so any post on my normal social media would likely actively promoted to the people, who I did not really want to see it.

So I figured a 'fresh slate' would be the best way to practice being more social, without having to worry about what people thought about me!

It sounds kinda crazy now, but I ended up making a new discord twitter, reddit and steam account, tumbler was honestly just an afterthought, as I hardly ever used my main tumblr.

So I played some online game, joined some discord groups, and followed and messaged people on twitter…

…and after the first year, I was borderline right back where I was before. Still second guessing everything I post, leaving tons of replies in the drafts, and while I had 'mutuals', there were just other people I followed so I could get more of the content I already enjoyed, there was no real connection outside of a quick reply here or there.

I spent so much time thinking "oh I'm just not comfortable with these IRL people", that simply having a new 'pool' of people to interact with would fix all my social issues, and while I did feel a little more comfortable talking about a wider range of topics with these new people, I'd still feel held back in many of the same was as before.

Every action had to be fueled by multiple layers of second guessing.

"I like this art, I should tell them…well they probably already hear that all the time, it won't matter" "I Also like the thing they're talking about, but they're WAY more interested, so I can't really add much to the conversation" "I really like that outfit/artwork, but it is a tiny bit suggestive, so would that sound creepy coming from a guy?"

…and much more. Addintally, when I often have trouble wording things in a natural sounding way, I'd have to worry about not just 'what' I said but "how I said it" And with multiple questions behind each action, just like with my main account, I just stopped interacting.

And it really took a lot of positive exposure to situations for me to be able to see, sometimes the intent matters almost as much (or sometimes more) than wording.

I've already gone into details on the process here, and in my reddit post prior to posting on tumblr.

But in short, playing in the fantastic Final Fantasy XIV community, gave me a lot of great places to experience this.

You could get carried through a dungeon by a tank that only speaks in the 3rd person, or get great healing from a cat girl, who's every single message contains at least one cat-related pun.

How they presented that help, did not matter, it's the fact that they were willing to help. And you could also look however you wanted, Even if that meant you were protected by a 2.5' very angry munchkin of a tank, people would just roll with it.

Style Savvy was just as helpful, I may never understand modern fashion or trends, But if someone comes into my shop asking to look a specific way, I get to help them achieve their ideal image!

I got to explore a small section of the fashion world, without having to worry about "well, technically that's out of season" or "ooh, that was IN last year, but now it's OUT", or "Why am I dressing this person that way, what would they really want?"

I just got to have fun living in my own little fashion cubbyhole, a comfortable little cutout with only the parts I enjoy.

And Fashion Forward had such a big impact on me, I just really had to share it, so I made the above reddit post, I kept playing and kept enjoying the game, and started sharing my thoughts here as well, as it's much better for images than Reddit.

And just like with playing the games, over time I started sharing more of my thoughts, and eventually explaining "why" I felt specific ways about some parts, it felt fairly uncomfortable at first, but I remember just telling myself, "It's still topical, and if they've gotten this far, they kinda know what there getting into",

My main concern was not making anyone uncomfortable, or upset

but still trying to be open, and I think I've managed to strike a fair balance. As in general, I want this blog to be more about my adventure with fashion, rather than simply sharing screenshots, or just me venting. And even if a majority of people are here for the screenshots, it still means a lot that others are interested in my content!

---

Anyways you all for reading, hopefully this little look inside the creation of the channel was insightful! (I have to head start work, but I'll do a quick edit pass later) I still have a long ways to go when it comes to 'social improvements' , but I feel I've made a ton of progress in the last year or so. These games have helped far more than my 'dramatic social media change', and now I'm getting some external support to manage as well!

And while I won't yet be providing exact details of my situation, Questions and comments are always open!

[ophernelia]

Hey is it okay if I ask how you make friends with other creators??? And is it like legit friends because I want to start connecting with other creators when I start posting but I don’t like talking to ppl bcuz I’m shy but I’ll hype them up on social media for sure

Hey! Honestly just interacting with other people’s content that you like is a good start. That’s how I got most of my mutuals. Do you mean legit friends like irl friends? If so, I don’t know lol. Most of my interactions don’t leave social media platforms. When they do it’s just an occasional message on discord of “hey can you test this cc for me?” Or like help with making something. It’s mostly just sims related stuff. I’m pretty quiet for the most part, so I don’t talk much in general. Unless it’s to myself lol. Even in my own discord lol. I think I’ve said maybe three sentences in total. It’s a positive thing to be in good standing with your peers, but it’s also okay to just post and go too.

[iomadachd]

get to know the mun

== BASICS

NAME: Calico

PRONOUNS: ey/em or they/them

ZODIAC: Leo Sun, Leo Asc., Sagittarius Moon

TAKEN OR SINGLE: Single

SEXUALITY: Asexual

== THREE FACTS

I was supposed to be a Cancer

my entire apartment is decorated for Halloween year-round

I cost spotify money with how much I listen to it

== EXPERIENCE

PLATFORMS USED: AIM, MSN, Skype, Message Boards, Discord, Tumblr, GaiaOnline. Been RPing in some form online since late 1999, early 2000. Pretty exclusively RP on Tumblr and Discord now, but use Discord mostly for socializing/brainrotting

PLOTTING / WINGING IT / MEME: Honestly, I am so open to all of it. Like winging it is great, especially riffing off a meme, but some light plotting can really help nail down a trajectory where it might otherwise putter out. Especially if you're crossing verses, it can be hard to find the path that works on both sides.

== MUSE PREFERENCE

GENDER: it's a spectrum, and I'm really fuckin' queer

MULTI OR SINGLE: -gestures at the multimuse blog behind me- I've done both single and multis, but balancing multiple blogs takes work, and I prefer to have everyone in one place now. I love interacting with either type of blog, though.

LEAST FAVOURITE FACECLAIM(S): eh, I've got a couple, but I don't like putting things on main if I can help it. If I don't want to interact with a faceclaim, I just won't.

== FLUFF / ANGST / SMUT

FLUFF: yes, absolutely. I don't need it to be tooth-rotting, but I like the quiet moments, the time they're just wrapped in each other talking about anything and everything. i do get bored with it easily if there's no plot movement in it.

ANGST: Yes.

SMUT: Extremely selective and generally would prefer it fade to black. With a partner I trust and vibe with, it can happen, but it'll be behind a read more. Most smut writing I do is on Discord.

16 and 33 for the ask game!

https://at.tumblr.com/aheartofmercury/aheartofmercury-system-ask-game-any/w2b3fdv34qy5

-Faye

hiii thank you for sending an ask, i love any excuse to talk about our system

system ask game

16. what headmate is the weirdest species?

honestly most of us are human or alien but we have an asriel fictive, i don't think it gets much weirder than goat monster LMAO.

33. what is the funniest piece of system drama?

hmm at the moment? it's pretty quiet right now. Everyone gets along really well. but we do have this ongoing inside joke where we sort of take teams based on everyones main color in their "palette". A lot of us are fictives, and those that arent typically look very colorful-- like me for instance, i'm mostly blue. it started as one of us going "haha isnt it funny that so many of us are blue or green?" and it just caught on. the main factions are Red, Blue, Green, and Miscellaneous (who we affectionately call the crayon cult.) There would be more than four but our system runs on democracy so this way all of the numbers are pretty even lol.

It results in a bit of playful arguing & memes. right now, the crayons who were once a quiet minority have risen up and revolted against green, who were previously the most populous. team red and team blue are always arguing over who's cooler. also Purple Gang insists that they deserve their own bracket despite there only being 3 of them.

anyway heres an example of what i mean, from our discord

[naggingatlas]

idk if anyone will see this but MY ULTIMATE GUIDE TO SPARK is:

⭐⭐🎪⭐⭐ ROUND ONE

stej 1 longplay (there r level by level and seamless ones) / playing the game but don't feel bad if you need to quit on the last levels the difficulty spike is. eh. there's also a quality of life mod for it in the works! it's called recharged :) <- u can download it already

u can also switch the controls by pressing ctrl+y

also available in stream flavor if u need someone to ramble over a game: a merry gentleman who really enjoys the soundtrack and does NOT understand the sacred value of knight hat, and this depressed fox-thing who keeps buzzing his ass on everything (a two-parter) 1️⃣1️⃣1️⃣ and 2️⃣2️⃣2️⃣. we're not jermaing here unfortunately, so i prefer longplay commentary w friends and just. pausing when u can't read as fast. guaranteed to have that overhaul thingy tho.

fark's story!!! yes it's non canon but!!!! eughuehuhgh!!!!!

it's the hardmode of this game so if you're not into that it might not be super accessible, but is an interesting look into the character of fark felipe had been working with at the time and how the community saw him. as fark appreciator #1 - is required reading.

if youre not ENAMORED! with the footage being mostly just "stej1 levels but w FAAAAARK", you can just press forward until something catches your eye, the levels r the same rly. it's really quiet. it's the one where the robot gets the nightmares.

prolly the sluggiest part of ur journey tho

also available in both commentary and shutthefuckup flavors.

fark moves in w spark in it btw. ⭐

⭐⭐🤖⭐⭐ ROUND TWO

for stej 2 it's either cutscenes + playing the levels yourself in 3 - their reworks were added as a free dlc - or just watching a full longplay.

not worth the time and brain cell cringe investment at the familiarization stage. but if you go into it with the full knowledge that it's going to be GOOFY, the cutscenes do their job - i laugh my ass off at the 3 microframes of armstrong being carried away by ej at the start of it. get a beer n some chips dude.

tho imo? auntie yasha opinion? just do the cutscenes and then, after you're done with everything, play the levels in 3's rendition as like a throwback. you'll love it much more this way i think. honestly that's the whole deal w 2, it's a shitty itchy sweater made by yo ma when she was just learning to knit but you wear it to keep the memory of that time alive yknow. gotta give her credit for starting somewhere.

if you do play it the floppy discs contain concept art n stuff but u can find that online obv

⭐⭐🍔⭐⭐ FINAL LOOP

stej 3 you just buy it you play that shit that's it. ok or watch a longplay (this one has timestamps just don't. like. accidentally take a peek at the later timestamps ok you got me buddy you hear me. ok. thanks). but yea.

if u got a pc just buy the game oh my god buy this game play it i've written and screamed and chewed a hole in my red skull chewtoy over this game so many times me n my niece could open a university course on it.

play it however u want (only advice is try to get as many completion (not exploration!) medals in the levels as u can. or don't if ur hardcore like that.) just one rule - normal platforming difficulty and no spoilers absolutely none.

btw don't worry abt the gamepad thing felipe jumpscares you with at the start i honestly prefer keyboard n mouse in it <- filthy tf2 player who has the medicmain strafing spasms so ingrained in her hands she did them mid air for the first 3 hours.

and that's pretty much it! you're free to roam afterwards. join the official discord server, read up on the wiki, watch lakefeperd's (that's felipe! that's the mom!) dev streams (Goofy. the story beats r so off in the final material every time i love this guy. leather jacket indoors in the brazilian heat. ah), check the twitter n tumblr tags, watch speedruns, miserably try to recreate speedrun tech, do an endless dive stream with buds cheering you on, watch essays about out of bounds in games and cry, you'll figure it out. and then after you have 50 hours in 1 and 3 and are starved and emaciated you may go play stej2. maybe.

tl;dr ⭐🍔🤖🎪

stej 1 longplay/play the game. ||| level by level playlist / seamless playthrough / stream 1 / stream 2 part uno + part dos /// quality of life mod

buy stej 3

stej 2 cutscenes + play the ported levels in 3. if step two skipped - full playthrough. ||| cutscenes / longplay

play stej 3 with no spoilers whatsoever. if not possible - longplay and don't you dare move your cursor or fat sleazy finger ahead of where you currently are. ||| longplay

🌽 also if u just wanna try the games out and are stingy w your money i can always provide a torrent link via dms. that's how i got familiar with them and then decided to support the author :]

as always, best enjoyed in the company of mocking friends

and thank you @starfall-isle for inviting so many people into this cozy, dark, but ventilated hole . godspeed.

do you have any recommendations on where to start with Spark the Electric Jester? is it worth starting from the very beginning, or can you jump in at the newest game and still get the full experience? thanks! (I have an undying need to get into this fandom now and it's your fault)

I would personally recommend starting with the first game yeah! It’s much less plotline driven, but it’s a very good introduction to the characters and tone of the series. +it is so fun and has a stellar soundtrack. It’s a little difficult to find many longplays for the first game though, most of the ones I found were before the game had a big overhaul and dialogue update and a lot of the time people jumped through the text boxes too fast for me to keep up with lol. (If u have a computer all the games are on steam! 1st is pretty cheap.) The second game also acts a bit like a prelude to the 3rd so i would also recommend that one, but tonally it feels a bit different to the other two which is partially why I think the first is a good starting point! Hope you enjoy them ^^
