#i feel like im not active on blogs i DO have muse for because its just so hard to get blogs...running

[kxllerblond]

guys i really wanna get back on my pirate oc

[patb-goose]

So, I really didnt want to have to make a post about this.

I don't enjoy confrontation and like to be nice most the time, especially because I appreciate those who like what I do. BUT some of you have got to chill. Maybe that is too blunt but I feel like I need to be in this case. I am getting too many messages about art and/or if I am "still here". Once, i get. But when i have answered the same thing numerous times (both on this account and my old one which is gone now) I start to become bothered. Bc its the same questions over and over. Ive already explained that im not going to be active other than my fic unless a muse struck. This blog will most likely be an archive for my work. Honestly, i feel like im being hounded and it is making me less keen on doing anything. Yes. I am slow. I have depression more often than not. But I work when I want and on what makes me happy. Im sure it is not your intent to pester but regardless that is how it comes off. I feel like some people try to befriend me just bc you think ill make you content. That is not how it works. I barely have time to make art for myself. I had people asking me even when my hands didnt work, even after I told them about it.

I am just very frustrated about this. I dont like to block but maybe ive just been too nice.

man, it's been a while since i posted here properly. it's been an enlightening past two days to say the least and it's all got me reflecting not only on my time here but also the future for this blog, my lore, etc. so...

have a pretty big dump under the cut. this'll be long, i feel like i have a lot to cover. i dunno who'll even read it, but i feel it's worth getting out there anyways.

so. yeah! been a while. been a LONG fucking while. im 21 now, turning 22 soon; almost 3 years have passed since i put this blog in its weird hiatus state. prior to that i was active a lot, writing a lot - i genuinely was extremely happy. in a way, i still am - but that only came after a very, VERY involved few years of consistent therapy appointments and learning to write for myself to somehow see my ideas through instead of pushing myself to be here.

so. should probably talk about that. i wont go into mega details because it's *done* and i don't want to bring a carcass to the surface, but i *do* want to give it a gravestone.

september and october of 2021 are the two months i can easily say are up there on some of the worst of my entire life. a lot of my own personal experience with my muse - with goldie - practically *died* during that span of time as a result of the things that happened. some of you might have an *idea* of things, and if so, please - don't bring it up, don't ask me or anyone else about it. i'm making this post for me, for my OWN catharsis. if people don't like that, *don't make it my problem.*

i don't fear people knowing, i just... i don't want to constantly have things be brought back and forth. im only just now realizing that what i went through *was not a singular experience*, and that it was a pattern of behavior that i wasn't *alone* in. for the longest time, i thought i was genuinely and completely alone in the fact that no one could really attest to what i went through except for one person who helped me through all of it alongside my own personal friendgroup separate from the rpc. turns out, i'm not, and that has been incredibly validating and actually has done a lot more for my confidence in the past 48 hours than i realized it could.

i hate the month of hell. i hate everything about it. i hate how it made me feel, how i couldnt do my internship without being constantly pressured to do something else for the sake of other people, how i was constantly made out to be someone who caused the problems and couldn't compromise or apologize when that really, really wasn't the whole truth. i've spent *years* in therapy just to affirm that i wasnt crazy and that it wasn't fair to treat me - a then 19 year old - as someone who couldn't make mistakes and was expected to just KNOW things and norms despite it being known that i *didnt* get things immediately. realizing i'm autistic has been a struggle that lasted *years* and if i'd known it then, it would have made me more receptive to how badly i was being treated instead of just sitting down and taking it and BLAMING myself for it. i hate that i was talked about to other people after the fact even though i explicitly kept my struggles out of talks with rpc friends.

i hate everything about what happened that year. and i hate that it ripped ed away from me for a good while and sent me into a horrible mental state that i took a really, REALLY long time to recover from - and even then, i'm still not 100%. i still have triggers that send me right back to that year. i still have things that remind me exactly of all the shit that happened. my health issues haven't gotten better since that month exacerbated them, but they haven't gotten worse - just a way of showcasing recovery, i guess.

2021, for better or for worse, broke me. it stole away my love for writing and my ability to do art for a while. i finally picked up the pieces and now they're melted back together, but there's nothing that'll change how badly it effected me and jeopardized one of my deepest mun-muse connections i'd ever had because i was accused of not being able to separate mun vs muse.

but i'm getting better. i'm being better. slowly but surely, i'm building my own personal safe space filled with people who will actually confront me for the things i do wrong *without* being afraid to even TALK to me. that wasn't easy, not by a longshot - but i'm happier like this. i'm thriving like this. because of the safe space i've built, i've been able to write *thousands* of words for fics for this very lore and all the things that came from it. i've been living my best life on my artblog, @aubodied , because i decided i was GOING to enjoy things without all of this bitterness being attached to it, because i'll probably *never* get accountability for what happened to me. i'm learning to live life without looking back on all of it.

it's been a wild ride. and now i don't feel like i have to isolate myself anymore now that i KNOW i'm not alone. so someday - i don't know if it will be soon or not, but SOMEDAY - i'll come back here. i'll start writing again with other people, actively. until then, i'm always open to be reached out to to talk or other things. i want to reconnect, and even though that'll be a long process, i WANT to restore the feeling of home i made for myself in this rpc.

so... hi. i'm evy. i also go by vee. i use he/they/she pronouns (strongly preferring he at the moment), and i'm proudly autistic and navigating the world with those lenses. i love videogames and i stream sometimes alongside doing personal art for my obsession with edling as a ship. i'd be happy to be your writing partner someday. i'd be happy just to make rpc friends again someday. 2021 was awful for me, but i've finally moved on without fear of being able to talk about this - now i want to thrive.

so thank you for listening to me, if you read this. i hope we can talk again soon. and remember - i'm always here if someone wants to reach out.

"I am robin. Son of batman. And that's all you need to know!"

semi-selective, EXTREMELY low-activity, slightly canon divergent rp blog for damian wayne al-ghul aka robin from dc comics. written by robin (he/they, 22, american) please read rules + about before interacting. always accepting memes and asks unless stated otherwise!

blog / damian info / ask

below the cut you will find the RULES to this blog.

first and foremost, this blog is on constant low-activity unless stated otherwise because im about 1/3rd of the way through an accelerated nursing program and mon-thursday is dedicated to class and studying. i'll most likely be slow most of the time and maybe fast during holidays or any day i have off. when i come on here i really just wanna have fun and write my blorbo so im gonna try to make this blog as stress-free as possible! for both me and my partners

semi-selective, dc-universe based unless it's an au though i'm open to interacting with other fandoms especially if i know them or follow you first. open to ocs, alternative universes, kids of canon characters, whatever, you name it, im cool with it. i'll have very little exceptions to this rule except for shows/fandoms i dont jive with like hazbin hotel or something.

mun is 22 and muse is 10-13 depending on what era/verse damian i feel like writing for my particular thread. i am more partial to younger damian just bc but i can just as easily write 13-14 yr old dami when possible. damian's potrayal is very super-sons and son of batman and just a little of wfa in there too.

i use basic icons (75x75 - 120x120) and some bolding and italicization. i dont go too crazy with that stuff. if you ever need me to edit the way i write or format to help you read it or something just let me know and i can do so! i tend to talk lowercase oocly but if this bothers you lmk and i can use better grammar.

discord always available to partners. i am faster on discord than i am tumblr, for sure. my discord is bunnie_rabbot1. just lemme know who you are and that you're from tumblr and we're good.

i have 10+ years of rp experience and i have been writing Damian on and off for 5 years/since 2019.

cool with multimuses. but i probably will not follow/interact with fellow damians just because im not comfortable with it. if you have damian as a muse on your mutlimuse you're all good!

this blog is heavily associated and bonded with sen's various blogs/muses (@/supraxstcllas )

rp lengths range from one-liners to mutliple paragraphs depending on my partner's writing and my mood. i'm not gonna lie i can be very inconsistent but if you're upfront with the lengths you prefer ill totally conform to it

please communicate with me if there's an issue. whatever it may be. im human and i make mistakes. plus being neurodivergent i can be pretty sensitive. if theres an issue with me/something ive done/etc please feel free to reach out and we can talk about it and figure out a solution. if you feel more comfortable blocking me, please HARDBLOCK me. for both our comfort. if theres a way to mend the issue and youre willing to talk to me about it id definitely prefer that. but i understand if its not applicable to every situation. overall your mental health is more important than rp so if you need to block then i understand!

my other rp blog(s) is @itsybitsypeterparker / @sunshinespeedst3r

no passwords or anything for the rules. if you want you can like this post to signify you read them but i dont care either way.

------------------------------------------

QUICK MUN INFO

hi! my name's robin. im 22, american, jewish, and in the EST timezone. i like comics, writing, books, music, and currently in an acclerated LPN-program that takes up most of my time. i really missed Damian and the tumblr format so here's my final go at making it work. dms/discord is always open if you wanna talk or plot.

SHIPPING INFO — answer the following for your muse(s) so people know how shipping works on your blog.

What’s your OTP for your Muse(s)?

multimuse that mainly writes ocs i will ship w anyone n everyone dont ask me to choose my favorite there isn't one (i lie . my favorite is Us. )

What are you willing to RP when it comes to shipping?

all ship dynamics are equally valued here ! yes that includes antagonistic, platonic, etc. i am an angst enjoyer first and foremost and can't lie but i love u hurt / no comfort. fluff is. meh to me? unless it's a brief respite between the horrors. i may write smut i may not. i enjoy talking about it if it comes up, but i defer to my partner's preferences. i love you dynamics between exes i love you older characters i love you mutual obsession and unhealthy / toxic dynamics (**not abusive) i love you mentor/mentee dynamics i love you thinking that everything is going to be fine and it only getting worse i love you becoming something worse than lovers

How large does the age gap have to be to make it uncomfortable?

involving a character under 25, i stick to 5 years. older than 25, i'd like for them to have not known eachother from before the younger was 25. frontal lobe development <3 ummm immortals are. waves hand. more nuanced. im straight up stealing from cupid now sorry smooches

Are you selective when shipping?

eeeeeeeeh ? if you're here on this blog and we are mutuals i will ship with you? like that's as selective as i get. i have some characters that are more ship-selective because they're very hard to ship with, i have too many similar dynamics with them, or some other thing. i generally prefer a good mix of chem + plot to ship. also if ur obviously face chasing... i dont care ? but like. please care about my character and their personality / backstory. thankies.

How far do steamy moments have to go before they’re considered USFW?

i'll be real with you i can't remember the last time i actively wrote something usfw on the dash. i'll dm you if i feel its heading that direction.

Who are other muses you ship your muse with?

is this a safe space to say i do think some of my muses would be fun (terrible) with eachother.

Does one have to ask to ship with you?

yessssnoooo? easiest way is to send a hey lets ship message or waowow im feeling smth between them are u message. i will likely agree with u. also open to being sent shippy inbox prompts if we don't have a ship on the contingency that you still need to explicitly tell me you're interested in shipping. i am autistic i have a hard time picking up things especially through the internet so i appreciate having a clearcut 'i would like ships' message because i generally will otherwise default to a platonic relationship. (this doesn't include those who i have many, many ships with)

How often do you like to ship?

23/6

Are you multiship?

my public characters are multiship, yes, but if we have a dynamic between our characters that is impactful enough to my character's development, i'll go single ship on that. any muses i make specifically for a ship / are listed as private are single ship <3

Are you ship obsessed or ship more-or-less?

obsessed but i always always include non-romantic dynamics in this.

What is your favorite ship in your current fandom?

stares at you with my big brown eyes. i write mostly ocs in original lore.

Finally, how does one ship with you?

please just ask its the easiest way for me otherwise we are gonna dance around it for eternity. holds ur hand. just message me.

[intcritus]

SHIPPING INFO. answer the following for your muse(s) so people know how shipping works on your blog.

What’s your OTP for your Muse(s)?

I don't really do OTPs, but Hua Cheng and Xie Lian is the only one to ever exist in my head. Other than that, I don't really have many if any at all because fandom tends to ruin any sort of OTP for me and I just don't even bother anymore.

What are you willing to RP when it comes to shipping?

Mmm, I'm pretty open to write anything but no non-con, I just don't see myself going that route after somene shoved it on me in Bleach fandom days, I'm still traumatized that shit happened. That and I find that it's a harstop for me to write stuff like that in general with the way I've mutred over the years and it's a trigger for me. Generally though, I'm happy to write pretty much anything else, but there has to be communication involved.

How large does the age gap have to be to make it uncomfortable?

I try to make my characters from 27 to damn near 50, and I have a lot of immortal muses. That being said, no one below like 27 because most of my muses are just old enough that they'd be bothered by certain age gaps. For my 27+ muses, no one below their age but upward ? Yes please. For my immortal muses, give them them 30 + always. They don't wanna feel like grave robbers. As for any muse I have below 27, i.e Edward, Shoto, Shinso, they're dating in their age bracket.

Are you selective when shipping?

Yes and no. As someone who needs active communication when it comes to shipping, I realize things don't really progress or develop if we aren't talking. And I don't mean everyday, because that's unrealistic. But if we're in the midst of shipping, I would like to hear your thoughts on the way they're developing together. I would love to share thoughts about the ins and outs of them just being in the same space. I love to ship, but empty ships with no substance fall flat and get dropped overtime because shipping is a two-way street and if one part is not putting in the work, the whole workload falls onto the other partner and that's a no go for me. In the same token, I'm happy to talk about dynamics, I'm all about what'll work and what won't work, especially in romantic ships, but familiar and friendships work out perfectly without much chatter.

How far do steamy moments have to go before they’re considered NSFW?

There's steamy, then there's suggestive. Steamy is them grinding against one another, dirty talk and the like. Suggestive is just them probably making eyes. Either way, I'm tagging it as is because I don't want the tumblr police in my ear.

Who are other muses you ship your muse with?

Honestly, couldn't tell you off rip. I have friends who I've been friends with for years that occupy most of my ships. It's such dynamic and rarepairs that it's hard to list them all. Its so much fun when I think about just how rarepairs, pairs I've hardly thought about can work once talked about. It's so good.

Does one have to ask to ship with you?

Absolutely. I feel like if there's some blooming chemistry for our muses, and you see it, feel free to tip yourself into my IMs or my inbox and shout in capital letters about them, I'm always happy to discuss it. Because I'm not an insta-shipper, but I love when muses develop crushes, or if there's potential for a certain dynamic and I'll never turn down anything, as long as there's adequate communication.

How often do you like to ship?

As someone who takes the time to develop ships, not as often as I used to. Mutual interest goes a long way into getting me to ship. Sometimes I'm there for shipping and I'm like hell yeah, other times I'm just eh. Depends on the why and if there's interest on both ends.

Are you multiship?

That, I am. But I don't do multiples of the same muse. I'm all for a friendships but I refuse to be ship with multiples because it's messy and my brain doesn't like to feel like someone's hoarding my muse or vice versa. Most people don't do exclusives but in my head, I do because it gives me peace of mind. That and my muses are very devoted to their person and the thought of trying with the same muse, different writer shrivels up their muse as a whole.

Are you ship obsessed or ship more-or-less?

The only thing I'm obssessed with when it comes to my ships is probably everything me, Sis and Aven come up with. Because those pairings come outta nowhere and are all the more dynamic for them. Shipping has become a rare thing for me these days because stuff tends to fall off, and I am okay with that. Developing ships is different because muses aren't one dimensional and it's fun to see them opposing one another, for them to be realistic and have conflicting feelings. Those are the things that make me want to ship rather than ' oh my god, they need to kiss', it's more ' could they agree on world destruction ? ' or ' is that thing a deal breaker ?'

What is your favorite ship in your current fandom?

Don't really belong to a single fandom tbh. Like I said, most of my pairings are rare and odd, so....

Finally, how does one ship with you?

Like I've been saying, communicate with me ! I'm not gonna bite and the worst thing I can say is no. I'm big on communicating because it goes a long way in letting me determined if there's mutual interest there and if not, we can always come back to it another time. But if not, I'm not always in a rush to jump into ships, it takes time.

Dont know if that helps but there are people like me who use social media to unwind, and specifically filter out political content (i do this on tumblr in particular) because i engage in political work in my every day life. Tumblr is my stupid place to recharge. Insta is mixed. Some apps have specific purposes for me. Some of them help me stay informed but they also bring me down. People not engaging with content that they didnt follow the person for doesnt mean they dont care, if that helps. And some people are engaged in other struggles, and might not have the capacities to deal with stuff in other countries, especially if their country is not involved at all. There are many ongoing genocides and wars, meanwhile europe is shifting to the right significantly. Lots of work. Some people pick their battles. And many battles don't happen online.

thank you for your input, i value these conversations! for me personally, unfortunately they don't really help - im sorry, it's not your fault its just that we have different perspectives!

i’m the exact opposite because my previous work DID mentally destroy me completely because… no one really cared - about the suffering, and how abysmal the legislations and the actual realities were (the context is animal cruelty in the food industry but thats not the point, this goes for all politics because….. everything is politics!) - and coming to social media to unwind does help for a little WHILE, but at the end of the day i have to talk about the things weighing on me just to hear that i am not going crazy because other people feel them too… and those conversations with my small social circle and with strangers etc are more important in the long run, both for me and for our communities as a whole. You are absolutely right though that if we're being absolutely honest there are TOO many battles for any one individual to fight - so its a good thing that people do choose the ones they know the most about and that are closest to their heart. But it's also true and inescapable that people also use this as an excuse, "there's too many bad things :c" just to keep up the status quo.

I know this is different from your experience ofc! It was very kind of you to answer my ramblings btw - dont worry, i am fine now (the projects help a lot!), i’m just musing on the ironic fact that i personally dont want to post about insignificant things on my social media anymore simply because it’s too hard when they get engagement and the important posts do not. Again, i absolutely know this doesnt mean people don’t care, and sometimes people just miss posts - and also like you said, some people do their activism etc offline.

however… i’m sure you have also had the misfortune of trying to talk to anti-boycotters or rightwing politicians etc on for example twitter and thus know that shitty people exist everywhere and hearing mockery and dismissal Constantly is taxing for everyone. so when people ""choose to ignore"" things you cant actually tell if theyre just.... staying silent for whatever reason on their soc med (which is… one hell of a choice :))) and its not the right one. objectively) or if they actually don’t care at all - because how Can you know when people choose to stay silent through nine months of this?

also this is just a tangent, but there's also the fact that yes some people just do in fact simply not see the same posts on their timeline, but at the end of the day we all curate our own timelines and its Very free to look up the specific blogs you want to follow that raises awareness etc! again, this is with the assumption that you aren't an activist / work with politics or charities offline ofc, because not that many people do - i don't, for example, but my goal and dream is to start doing it but... i have to piece my brain back together first...

quartarcade asked: ✖, ☠, and ☀. commence forth the salt 🧂 ; the salty af munday meme ✖ How has Tumblr RP changed since you started? ☠ What does someone have to do for an instant unfollow from you? ☀ What's your rp pet peeve?

oh god don't make me dump out my salt shaker

i can safely say that it has insanely changed when i first came here TEN years ago. things were a lot more simple and graphics were not crazy insane, but i interacted with a lot of in character ask blogs! thats the one thing i kind of miss because they'd make lots of content for themselves and they were genuinely enjoyable! but i will say it hasnt gone bad OR good, its changed insanely now. with the change in seeing more supplied rules/guidelines is honestly good because you set boundaries that way. not a way to walk on eggshells, but more so you understand why people have set what they wish for.

for me, ive had a few things that have made me immediately unfollow. so, my one stickler is just... porn. specifically anime porn, but ive had smut blogs who have stolen art on their character profiles that are suspiciously 4K, but their writing is less than the bare minimum. big ick from me. another reason is a ludicrous amount of OOC posts that are emotionally heavy. ive had to softblock new followers for this reason because they have either major suicidal intentions in their posts or complaining; no in-between. and just to include another thing before i move on: no activity at all. like... i'd like to see some attempt that you're writing and not six months of no posts or longer.

LASTLY, uhh... i honestly dont have that many pet peeves, but if i wanna be super super specific? people who use their muses as a means to gain sympathy from their partners or a reaction out of their muses for attention. i have seen this happen and have it happen to me on an occasion. and not like "oh i want someone to respond to this open post!" but as in "im incredibly sad/depressed/emotional, so my character is therefore depressed, but in an extreme way and needs a specific muse/partner that i want comfort from".

do you know how fucking draining that is? you learn to pick up the behavior when you notice it because you'll fall for it the first few times. i know damn well ill get some flack for mentioning this, but it's a problem. i don't like it and it makes me lose ANY interest in you as a partner because THAT alone tells me you want someone to smooch you up and make you feel good with fictional characters. its fucking weird. im here to write and have fun, not to give people emotional sympathy that will barely last a fucking week.

an INDIE. SELECTIVE. CANON DIV. AURA GUARDIAN RILEY from POKEMON D/P/PT + ancestor verse ft. Sir Aaron written by leche! Multiverse, crossover, and oc friendly. please read rules under cut before following!

「 ✧ 」 ABOUT. PROMO. MEME TAG. HEADCANONS.

rules!

✧ Very canon divergent. A lot of history, headcanons, and even in-game events are explored differently here. While in some realm canon complimenting this iteration greatly diverges from the norm.

✧Triggering content containing NSFW both sexual and intensive themes. I do write smut but all of the above is put under a read more and tagged accordingly. Please be 18+ to interact.

✧ Selective, crossover/oc friendly, mutuals only etc etc. I only interact with mutuals and wait to be followed first before following back if I can see our characters and writing meshing well. This is just so I can have an active dashboard that I can freely interact with.

✧ You do not need a verse to interact with my muse. If anything I prefer general crossover to see how they interact in their various worlds.

✧ While open to shipping and discussing possible connections with my muses I will not insta-ship. It’ll have to be chemistry and interaction based with buildup and note the blog is not ship-focused.

✧ Please like any ask or starter I answered for you! Tumblr as always has its faults in its notifications. It’ll save me a lot of anxiety if you do! Thanks a bunch!

✧ I don’t do mains or exclusives in any way. While I do have close mutuals I’ll interact with a lot because of comfort there are no central characters or plots otherwise besides my own. If a muse wants to get involved in some exclusive way please come by me to see if we can plot something out.

✧ I’m not interested in poly-shipping. Nothing wrong with it ofcourse but Im only really comfortable shipping with friends or mutuals I know and on the same space as I’m in. I’d ask for a single-verse for my muse or we can go through a platonic route if your muse is exclusively poly, but as with anything please come talk to me for anything.

✧ You dont have to ask to reply to an ask. Please do! If anything I ask if possible to follow through on a meme or ask you’ve sent be turned into an interaction unless the point is moot or its a drabble. Not required of course, it just helps start and build interactions!

✧ Note the plot is centralized to my characters and canons put under the v. main tag. Dash events, rpc happenings and the whathavs unless I say so otherwise are not canon and often put under the crack tag or untagged. Please dont assume anything from my muse or expect them to engage either as sadly I have to step away from the dash often and cant catch up. I prefer to have control over my narrative and if you want something outside included please plot with me!

✧ Think I missed you when ya followed? Just like my pinned post and Ill check you out but please dont harass me or ask to be mutuals following that. Sometimes there’s just no clear way for our writing, content or characters to interact and asking me to be mutuals puts me in an uncomfortable spot.

✧ The rules above are the most prominent but THE REST FALL UNDER GENERAL RP ETIQUETTE. Anything not listed but known should be adhered. But if you have any questions please feel free to send me an ask for clarification!

most  active  muse(s):  just caroline. i have an archangel azrael ( azrahel ) but i put her on semi hiatus until i can actually feel like doing things on her blog.

experience / how  many  years:  been on this hellsite since 2011. so . . . . 12 years lol . somthin' like that.

best  experience:  meeting  my  friends.  hands  down. 

rp  pet  peeves:  people stealing shit such as graphics, writing ( i LITERALLY just went through this on azrael... ) and any other stuff. not reading my rules and my muse's information ( every day...on caroline. at this point, i ignore. bitchy, i know but whew...its all over my blog basically ), and people rushing me for replies. i am slow...but i am trying.

plots  or  memes:  memes  bc  they  help  me  with  plotting!

long  or  short  replies:  medium - longer length replies. sometimes ya girl rambles on and on.

are  you  like  your  muse(s):  in A LOT of ways, yeah. i really related to caroline the most as a teen tbh. and still, somewhat now with the whole insecurity stuff and all. but also, we both have a fiery personality. i think that's one reason i can maintain muse for her a lot more than any other muse? because like . . . . writing her, the words, actions, etc comes naturally ? and like i feel like i can get into her headspace fairly easy. idk if any of this makes any sense lmao. tagged by: @chmerical <3 tagging: @flesheaten , @fuckedprophet , @theirhorrorstories , @biigscene and YOU !

Get To Know The Author

name : Kay

pronouns :  she/her

preference of communication : Honestly I have a huge preference for discord. I don't trust tumblr IM to actually alert me. Ive recently learned tumblr has been eating my asks too. If I don't reply to an ask or DM me PLEAS reach out to me. I will NEVE outright ignore something. If I don't think something is going to work for our muses I will reach out to you. 

most active muse :  Kat is my loudest and most demanding. After that would be Her brother Kass, Feyre, and then our spotty maybe I'm here maybe I'm not - Emmett.  

experience / how many years : Ohhh boy. I've been doing the rp thing off and on since 2010. There was a five year chunk in recent years where I disappeared for a bit but the lovely @sharpayevcns pulled me back in a few months ago and I am so appreciative that she did. <3 

best experience : Discovering the people here that make me feel safe enough to obsess over threads. You guys have absolutely made my return to tumblr. If I were to delete my blog with nothing but my connection with you guys to show for it - Well I would be absolutely fine with that. You guys are amazing and will absolutely be tagged in this. 

rp pet peeves : I keep running into situations where I get heavily invested in plotting something (Drawing, writing head cannons, making playlists, planning cannon events. . .I literrally brushed up on a whole ass language for a plot) Only to have those people completely leave me on read. I am not a pushy partner in the least. I would be more than happy to wait a month for a reply. But I need communication. I need feedback if something doesn't sit right for you. I need reciprocated enthusiasm. You don't have to show It the same way I do but I need some show of enthusiasm otherwise it just feels uncomfortable and I feel annoying and restrained. That's not what I'm here for. I've honestly made the decision to start unfollowing people based on a three strikes basis. No hard feelings. I just don't want to follow anyone who doesn't bring the same energy I do. 

fluff, angst, or smut :ALL OF IT! While I'm becoming more and more selective about who I write smut with I LOVE writing smut ESPECIALLY if its born of post Angst fluff. Actually almost exclusively. There is nothing that gets my muses motor going like post Angst Fluff! 

plots or memes : Augh! Don't make me pick. I love Plotting but sometimes nothing really gets the juices flowing like memes do. I cant tell you how many times a simple meme interaction help set a pivotal point in a plot. ALSO- Memes are usually what help me forego my shy nature. While my muse outwardly gives NONE of the Ducks. . .I do . I give all of the Ducks so memes help  me loosen up. I'm not responsible for the haphazard neuroSpicy creature you meet once the shyness has fallen away. You've been warned.

long or short replies : It depends on my mood and attention span. There is a Adderall shortage right now so I have only been taking my Adderall on work days so Ive had a VERY hard time focusing o replies as of late. When Im on top of my Game I am LONGWINDED AF .Please don't ever feel like you have to match me because there are times where I will write you a novel and we were only supposed to be writing a sentence or two. It just happens and Im sorry.  time to write : Ha! um . . . Well I work Graveyard  Thursday- Saturday from 8PM-9:30ish AM (PST)  On slow nights I do write here and there but for the most part I can be found here pretty sporadically. If I have something going on during my weekend that I have to be a daytime person for then ill be up during the day time. OTHERWISE- Mostly evening and spooky hours . 

are you like your muses : I could draw some parallels with each of them but I dont think I am like any of them.

[dutyworn]

name: Havu

pronouns: they/them (I'd prefer ey/em but I don't have the energy to start fighting people about using neopronouns when it's hard enough to get them to use they/them and that... works)

preference of communication: Discord. The tumblr IM box is very difficult for me to focus on, and while I will use it with people who prefer it, I am unlikely to venture into very long messages there.

your most active muse: Shepard, right now, honestly

experience/how long (months, years?): Over 15 years in different platforms, since spring 2013 on tumblr. I started roleplaying on tumblr with a Doctor Who OC (whom I still write on my multi - she has a Mass Effect verse in the making, wink wonk), and mainly wrote the Eleventh Doctor (under legsyes and later snogboxed) for about five years and some other canons and OCs, took a bad mental health year lurking, came back on Castiel (waywardfeathered) mid 2018, dappled into more OCs and canon muses, made a multi (smokedanced), retired Eleven and started writing Thirteen (dochaes)... I run four blogs now (Cas/Thirteen/Wren/multi)

platforms used: Only tumblr; I occassionally write on Discord with Orion and Lexi, because they're both very close to me and get special privileges, but I am not open to writing on Discord with people in general. It doesn't work with my executive dysfunction. Creativity is difficult, and tumblr works for me as well as it does because I can spend a lot of time formatting and making icons, doing the mechanical, easy part of the framework to spark the executives to function with the hard, creative part as well. I simply don't have the tools to consistently write with everyone on Discord.

best experience: No single best one, but every time I develop fully fleshed out dynamics/storylines between someone's muses and mine. It's the best roleplay feeling when your muses just... have a dynamic that just kind of takes life of its own?

rp pet peeves/dealbreakers: I have my dealbreakers listed on my rules. Fandom anti rhetoric being the most important (policing what kind of fiction other people should be allowed to enjoy/write, as in, setting your own boundaries is totally fair, but acting as if someone writing something you don't want to see were "wrong" or "gross" or whatever; callouts over fictional content no matter if I personally engage in that kind of content or not, judging people's morals based on their fictional preferences; equating depictions of bad things to acts of bad things - for example, writing a muse as a racist caricature is an ACT of racism, and I don't condone that at all, but writing an abusive relationship is a DEPICTION of abuse, not an act, and I do condone this fully, it is fiction - trying to coax/guilt-trip another mun into writing something with you when they've said no is an act of crossing boundaries and just bad behaviour and I don't condone that, but writing anything at all between consenting muns is imho fine and I don't tolerate demonising people for this), individual urls on DNIs (I consider this harrassment), making/sharing callouts outside of very specific, extreme cases (I am likely to let it slip if I see mutuals share a callout every now and then unless it's in the vein of "this person writes problematic fictional content", but I regard this on a case by case basis). Like... I'm not trying to police anyone, either. You're allowed to engage in any of these behavours. I won't try to make people take out their DNIs or callouts, at all. You're allowed to do that. I am, also, allowed to choose not to want you in my life due to that.

Pet peeves? I don't know, I have plenty, but it'd feel mean of me to start listing these. They're just annoyances and stuff I fully support people doing despite them annoying me.

fluff, angst, smut: All three, in the order of angst, smut, fluff.

plots or memes? Very very flexible. Total winging it works, intricate plotting works. My preference is some vague plotting, and exchanging ideas in however detailed they come to us while writing, but, I will totally wing it, and I will plot in detail, as well. I struggle more with... no ooc communication whatsoever or detailed plotting before any writing, but I will try and do it anyway for people who prefer those.

long or short replies? Again, flexible. I think it should be normalised that reply length within the same thread can be dynamic. Novella suits setting scene, timeskips, etc. while just a paragraph might suit action or heavy dialogue, to give a chance for the other muse to respond. I generally prefer around 2-4 paragraphs as a baseline.

best time to write?: Whenever I manage to push myself to do it. Context: I have to push myself to do everything, even the things I wanna do, because executive dysfunction. No specific time of the day.

are you like your muse? Almost not in the slightest. Wren is very heart first, I am very head first (this does not mean she's not logical nor that I don't feel emotions but you get what- hopefully you get what I mean). Wren is very engaged emotionally in the world around her as that is just her natural way of being, where I am very detached and feel more like an observer of the world than an active participant. She is good at making decisions, taking action, getting shit done. I am absolute shit at all of the above. She would rather do, I would rather think. (She is a good strategist and very smart, but I mean in the sense of, she would rather think in terms of what has practical use, while I, althought I don't see myself as exceptionally smart, would rather think in terms of I just enjoy it for its own sake and have no interest in the practical application of the things I like to think about.) She's very, very empathetic, and has an easy time picking up on people's emotions, reading between the lines, etc. I almost completely lack emotional empathy (I don't, nearly ever, feel other people's feelings or feel distress at other people's distress; doesn't mean, again, that I'm uncaring, my empathy is just cerebral and simply thought more than emotion, like I can still wish to show compassion even if I don't feel anything about the matter) and can't read between the lines, don't understand hints, etc. Or if I do, it happens with logical analysis rather than intuition. Wren's really brave, I'm super cowardly. Wren's self-sacrificing, I'm self-preserving; she puts others first, I put myself first. She's extroverted and has an easy time being around people, I'm incredibly introverted and could not even live in the same household with other people. She goes into states of just needing to get something done, where logical analysis overrides emotionality but for her that's under extreme stress and almost dissociative, while for me the logical analysis mode is just my natural state and not unhealthy. If we have something in common, I think, perhaps it's that we both hate with a passion to let other people see us vulnerable. We might feel vulnerable under different circumstances, but for both of us it's very unnatural to lean onto other people and let them help in emotional distress. I think, the reasons for this are similar for us? Wren grew up literally an orphan, homeless on the streets since age 10, she's never had a reliable adult figure in her life as a kid. I was tossed into the foster care system and institutionalised around age 13, and did not have safe and/or reliable/emotionally supportive adults around me since that age, either. We both learned from a young age that no one would take care of our emotional needs unless we took care of our own emotional needs. Accepting practical help is relatively fine for us both. Accepting emotional help is... alien. I don't think she recognises the cause of this for herself, fully. She has a habit of explaining it away with "these people are under my command, and a leader should not show weakness because if they can't rely on me how can I ask them to follow me", seeing as her closest friends tend to be also her crew. We both also utilise humour a lot? Even if in different ways.

get to know the author!

name : gold, unless we're close enough for u to get my discord and then you get my Actual Name #StaySafeKids

pronouns :  generally people use she/her or they/them for me

preference of communication : tumblr ims (usually i send a text wall of plot ideas to new mutuals) and then discord if we get chatty :3c

most active muse :  rn daniels, eun yoo, and bruce. overall it changes a lot though

experience / how many years : making us show our age are we, huh? i started rp'ing in 2007 over text with my friends . that's where i was at . i started rp'ing on tumblr in probably 2008?

best experience : on my cheesy shit but i've met some really good friends on tumblr who love me not despite of but bc of my horrifically cringe sensibilities. ive literally flown out to friends from tumblr/flown them to me like 6 or 7 times :3c

rp pet peeves : when people get like really entitled to your writing. badgering others for replying slowly/shorter than u want like someone is making u rp with that person is wild. my other big one is when people disrespect other muses and their capabilities to make their own muses feel cooler (except disrespect jim he's a piece of shit loser --)

fluff, angst, or smut : im an angst lover first and a human being second. i love psychological horror/terror above all else. fluff is nice for a lil detox or to make the angst hit harder. i almost never write smut, ive literally only done so on this blog twice and its over 5 years old lol

plots or memes : i prefer to plot at first so we go into with ideas, then when we both have a pretty solid idea of the type of shit our muses get up to and how they interact memes are very fun! i especially like memes that are like flashes forwards from current plots in threads to get us more hyped for hitting that point

long or short replies : it literally takes me so long to do short replies because i have to go back and cut things out. im a verbose woman. i got a lot to say! i like giving my writing partners stuff to work off of, especially non-verbal tells my charas give

time to write : mostly when i am breathing & conscious and not actively doing something with friends/family. neta writing is my biggest hobby, if im not writing on here im probably writing just random stuff on my own

are you like your muses : i have at least 1 projected trait per muse. usually more tbh. how many varies between muse, but if you notice themes of "lgbt and has adhd" you might onto something,

All they really need is some chemistry, a little bit of discussion of why a and b go well together and some interactions! I'm medium? paced with ships depending mostly on muse so always feel free to ask ahead and no need to be shy, I quite like it! And remember across my blogs on multi single ship meaning I only ship with one of a muse and want that reciprocated.

I dont do slow burn, sorry, Im really busy and unless there's a plotted timeline in order Im p bad in keeping track or keeping progress 🧍‍♀️

get to know the author!

name : snow

pronouns :  she/her

preference of communication : im's for a start! i don't mind keeping up with them afterwards or switching to discord

most active muse : oof, i have no idea, its somewhere between Adelinne, Marcella and Matthias, i guess

experience / how many years : i started writing in 2010, but i've only written on tumblr since..... 2018, i think? so, a lot of years. i've been a part of indie since 2022 tho.

best experience : when you click with a person! it's my most favorite thing about this hobby + the storylines we build together, of course! the anticipation of waiting for their next reply? the moment when you're full of muse and the words literally just flow? perfection. sadly, i get that feeling less and less as the time goes by, but... maybe it's normal?

rp pet peeves : too many ooc posts that just repeat the same stuff over and over again, i guess? there's just so many times one can say a certain thing before it gets pointless, in my opinion. but hey, everyone can do whatever they want on their own blog!

fluff, angst, or smut : fluff & angst! i just... love everything about it and i love when i make my characters suffer <33 smut is not my go-to and i'm getting more and more picky if and with whom i would write something like that, most of the time its just a personal preference!

plots or memes : how about plotting AND memes? i love to plot and figure out early on if our muses will match, but i know that sometimes it won't be as fun as to try and surprise each other with a meme and just roll from there. so throw them all at me!

long or short replies : i'm notorious for my ability to write way too much, but i'm trying to learn how to write shorter replies too, because sometimes the thread just needs it so it can move forward quickly, you know? so both!

time to write : depending on how exhausted i am and how much free time i have - it's either whenever i have time to sneak a few drafts while at work, or after 10pm when i'm all done for the day.

are you like your muses : in a sense, i am! i love to give everyone a trait of mine because that way i truly feel connected with them and i figure out easily what makes them tick (and some get more than one trait too). like @atlatsofstories said - please, do not ask why all of my muses have daddy issues shjfddhjfdhfs

✧ Do you agree with reblog karma or is it forced interaction?

salty mun questions ; accepting

as usual im gonna take an inbetween position because i cant help but see both sides having been on both sides. those both sides being "i believe in ask karma because its only fair and it helps the community feel more connected" and "no one is entitled to me sending them asks, and im not entitled to anyone else sending me asks".

my opinion of ask karma is: if you really strictly enforce ask karma and get on peoples case for it all the time, youre kinda being entitled to people's time and energy. maybe need to consider if you put in any effort sending people stuff too? its a two way street, of course! people are more likely to reciprocate if you take the initiative.

on the other hand, i also understand the frustration when you reblog memes and everyone on the dash goes ahead and reblogs it from the source (like you wont notice lololol) and then NO ONE SENDS ANYONE ANY ASKS. its def an awkward moment when that happens and it makes me a little sad like, damn are we really all that shy and socially awkward? i guess we are, since we are on tumblr and not on other social media.

also, theres the fact that not every ask prompt out there is going to work for every single interaction. ic ask prompts tend to be a little more tricky than ooc prompts. an ooc prompt you can send without much thought or commitment, but if you send an ic ask, you gotta figure out what is the most ic option, and what would work best for the dynamic at hand.

maybe the person reblogged an ask that centers mainly around romantic dynamics, only you dont have a dynamic like that with their muse, and dont want to be presumptive by sending something in. it would be kinda weird to expect ask karma in situations like that.

and there is an expectation to continue threads from asks -- maybe you dont want to send anymore ic asks for a little because youre already swamped with your own ic responses you have to do? been there. and also if youre like me, you spend a lot more time in drafts or the inbox than actually scrolling the dash, so its pretty easy to miss when people reblog certain memes.

so like...it kinda depends? we should all make an effort to interact with each other and give each other opportunities to write. roleplay is collaborative. if i wanted to scream into the void i would just do that on facebook or twitter.

but also i think its healthy to remember that sometimes ask prompts are pretty..... hit or miss. not because of the actual quality of the meme, but because they can be sometimes too vague to work for some muses, or too specific. how many asks you get often has a lot less to do with how engaged people actually are in your blog, or how much they like or dont like you, and more to do with what time you post the meme, how many people are online, and how many people are actually actively scrolling the dash, how much youve engaged with your mutuals previously, and how many people are looking to send asks!

honestly i think the best solution as always is really just .... communicating and treating people how you wish to be treated. if you want asks, send asks when you can! and if you ever want me to send you prompts from a specific meme, or you want me to reblog a certain meme so you can send in something, all you gotta do is ask! im totally cool with rp partners pointing out a meme they reblogged and asking me to send something/reblog it, i feel like thats a lot more straight forward than just sitting in each of our corners and hoping someone is brave enough to send something lololol
