Double NSFW asks: What are the ROs preferences in bed? And what are their kinks?

Under the cut for NSFWness

Eli - switch verse - pansexual → Dirty talk, especially with a MC that gets flustered easily, or just naughty banter in general. They’d do it in inappropriate places too, whispering obscenities in MC’s ear. Exhibitionism, but more to do with the possibility, the thrill, of someone maybe catching them in the act. They’d love to get MC in a secluded corner, one hand between MC’s legs, the other pushing two fingers in MC’s mout to keep quiet.

Keyon - sub verse - Sovereigsexual™ → He thinks he'll never feel an attraction as strong as what he felt for the late Sovereign. Praise kink, he needs to hear the MC tell him that he’s doing good, that he feels amazing. Body worship, he wants to know and love every part of MC's body, manually caress, pet, rub, massage and lick and kiss every inch of skin, map it in his mind and relive the moments when they are apart.

Rae - dom verse - pansexual → Rope-play & Bondage, Orgasm control, Begging kink, they all kind of go hand in hand. Rae just loves having MC tied up and doing with their body as she pleases (consensually, of course). They’d bring MC up close to the edge and let them beg for release or to touch her too.

Blythe - sub bottom - demisexual → Sensation play, she enjoys discovering what makes her body and MC’s tick. Being blindfolded and the anticipation of where MC’s fingers might touch next, or giving MC a nice, hot oil massage are huge turn ons. Impact play (spanking), both being draped over MC’s lap, but also doing a little spanking herself.

Thane - dom top - heterosexual (Romanceable for female MC only) → Rough sex, Overstimulation, Creampie/cumplay, also go all together. There’s just something about being in control, fucking MC senseless and seeing his cum drip out of or off of MC that makes him loose all his inhibitions. Loves tasting his cum on MC’s lips and leaving marks on MC’s body, the print of his fingertips on MC’s hips and his teeth on the shoulder. Sprinkling in a dash of breeding kink, he'd love to see MC'd belly round with their child.

Bonus Alder - switch verse - pansexual → Kinks? Yes. He's experienced, alright? He's done them all and enjoyed most of them. Might lean a bit on Knife play in the flirting phase - run the sharp blade of one of his pocket knives over MC's arm or throat, see how they react. Will lick the blood right off if/when he nicks the skin (a small dash of bloodplay). He'd have a fixation to fuck MC on every surface of his ship, for good luck, he claims. Funny enough, a bit of slow, passionate sex is what he's actually missing and unknowingly looking for.

for months now i have had this little story idea bouncing around in my head for an AU of Jetpack Joyride where Barry is stuck inside a big expermental time loop conducted by Legitimate Research to create an army of randomly selected time-travelling soldiers. the idea is very much still rough and i dunno if and when i'll develop it into a bigger thing, but it's a pretty cool idea and it's a twist on the JJ game that i've never really seen much exploration on.

basically, it focuses on Barry, who is the sort of Patient Zero of an experimental concentrated time-fuckery technology LR is working on. every single day, at exactly the same time, Barry goes out to work his salesman job, discovers the jetpack, breaks into the laboratory, takes it for a joyride, eventually gets hit by an obstacle and dies. the next day, Barry goes out to work his salesman job, discovers the jetpack, breaks into the lab, takes it for a joyride and dies. and he does the same exact thing the next day, and the next day, and the next day, and the next day... he's pretty much stuck in a loop of the exact same events happening repeatedly every single day, and he has absolutely no idea about it. that is, until there's a glitch in the system, and Barry progressively becomes a lot more suspicious and paranoid about the situation he's in. the rest of this post is gonna be REALLY spoilery (like i literally just explain big important chunks of the story for several paragraphs) if i ever make this into a full-fledged fanfic, so i'm gonna put it under a keep reading thingy. also it is... quite long and convoluted lol.

as the story goes on, it focuses more on the mental degredation of Barry as he starts uncovering all these weird clues, slowly trying to piece together what's going on and driving himself insane, because every time a reset occurs, his memory of the previous loop ever happening is completely wiped and everything he did that day goes all the way back to square one. since the malfunctioning of LR's technology though, Barry has been getting little nuggets of deja vu and half-remembered fragments of dying before a reset. this eventually becomes him repeating things to himself, little phrases and codes over and over and over in hopes that it will persist into the next reset. this eventually becomes symbols stuck up on the walls of his room and then progresses to entire rituals to help him remember and little behaviourisms like tics and stims to let him know he's in another loop. he becomes more and more panicked and unsettled, paranoid that someone - or something - is watching him closely. additionally, he keeps having disturbing dreams in the early hours of the morning before he gets up to go to work, ones that are symbolic and prophetic, as if they're trying to warn him about something. i've had concepts of him waking up on top of a pile of millions of mangled carcasses that all look exactly like Barry, and having on them them forcefully grab onto his leg and pull him down with the rest of them. it's kinda like the nightmare Woody has in Toy Story 2, but like, dead guys everywhere, lol.

the backstory of this whole thing is kinda insane. basically, Legitimate Research is a sketchy government funded facility that's doing secret time experiments to create the strongest beings for a purpose that's somewhat similar to Brains' Zomb Bomb plan from AOZ (i haven't fully decided yet). Barry is someone who has been randomly selected for their newest version of the concentrated time loop experiment, where patients will be put under looping tests to extract data about their strength, agility and performance and decide what they need to supplement them with in order to create the perfect soldier.

Barry was 22 years old when he was selected. he was actually a relatively normal local Fish N' Chips vendor living in New South Wales, but one day, when he recieved an exciting letter in the mail about a new ambitious job opportunity, he completely disappeared without a trace and seemed to have been entirely erased from the minds of everyone he had ever known. Barry had actually been kidnapped and ensnared into a mind-experiments facility of the laboratory, where they proceeded to wipe his mind, proof of his existence and his entire personhood up to this point, and replaced all of it with fake memories to fill in the gaps. he was then placed in stasis and to be injected with high doses of strength drugs as they crafted a new life for him behind the scenes. a new house, in a new state, all with new stories and memorabilia meant to be lived out by new person. now, he was Barry Steakfries in Queensland, a rough-around-the-edges guy with a passion for action movies and destruction. he was a revel with a thirst for chaos and freedom, but he just didn't have the means to achieve it yet. it was all according to plan.

a big part of the story i want to tell that involves him is that at some point, Barry tries to break free from the time loop by doing something different. this takes a lot of pre-planning, memory rituals and repeating details to himself, but after he wakes up from a reset and gets out of bed, he hesitates, choosing to go to a different place to sell his gramophones that day. he deliberately tries his best to avoid Legitimate Research's headquarters as much as he can, and while he doesn't completely remember why he's doing it, he has a deep gut feeling that he should stay away from them at all costs. so he does. and at first, it goes well. the day is different, his choices seem to actually matter and for once, the feeling of deja vu isn't tearing him apart... until a crazy freak accident happens that forces Barry to die and reset the time loop again, wiping away everything he had done that day. Legitimate Research is now forcefully trying to stop him from knowing what the hell is going on by forcing him to die with each now discovery he makes, and Barry has to figure out more and more creative solutions to averting their surveillance and trying to get the hell out of the loop.

Craig will also be involved with the story too!! i'm not exactly sure what exactly the events leading up to Barry discovering and meeting him would be, but it'd be kinda halfway-late-ish into the story where Barry manages to cut off LR's surveillance of him, breaks into the laboratory and searches through its archives for anything relating to time. during this raid, he accidentally discovers the true Patient Zero to this time experiment: a broken, decrepit shell of a man who has been hooked up to a set of wires and locked away deep into the laboratory, never meant to be discovered by anyone, only known simply as #000 'Craig'. Craig was the very first human they used to run an early prototype of these experiments, but through malfunctions in the threads of LR's technology, he ended up knowing too much and tried to break free from his time loop, which resulted in him being dragged out of reality and becoming completely detached from his own time, stopping his aging process completely and practically allowing him to exist forever and persistently through every reset unaffected. LR relocated him and considered him a catastrophic failure, locking him away in a cell deep in the bowels of the laboratory before destroying and erasing every archive of him ever having existed in any point in time. and now, the same thing is about to happen to Barry if he doesn't figure out a way to stop what's happening quickly. Barry, outisde of LR, is the only one who is aware of Craig's existence in this timeline. Barry makes a vow to make sure that he will never ever forget Craig, no matter what happens to him, no matter how many times his timeline gets reset, because he is the only other person on the whole world who truly understands what he's going through.

at the very end of the story, when Barry finally escapes the time loop and is about to enter into a new reality where none of this ever happened, he reaches out a hand to Craig and offers he come with him to live. Craig, however, rejects the offer, sadly confessing to Barry that because of his disconect from the threads of time progression itself, Craig must stay behind and be erased along with everything inside this one and let Barry live his life. Barry protests, insisting that his life wouldn't be complete without him and that they've already gone through so much together, but Craig assures him that this is the best for the both of them, and that Barry must leave him soon before the window to escape closes. Barry gives Craig once last goodbye, holding him close and basking in his presence for the final time. he closes his eyes, presses his head against Craig's and whispers "I promise I'll never forget you." before he slowly lets him go, not breaking their locked gaze on each other for even a second as he steps into the portal and ventures into an entirely new reality, never to return.

i want there to be an epilogue part where Barry starts his new life and goes looking for a place to stay, and he comes across the place where LR used to be, which is instead occupied with a big square fence plot and a sign that says "UNDER CONSTRUCTION: NEW RESTAURANT TO BE BUILT". Barry stares at it for a moment and reflects on everything that has happened. all the hellish experiments that were once held inside this very plot of land, all the trauma he went through to get to this point, Craig's sacrifice, everything has lead up to him standing here, in the right place, at the right time, to finally live the life he should've had to begin with. eventually, he turns away, continuing to walk down the street. he should go check that place out sometime.

Hello hello uh Reffrey fic (novelization of the breakup post) bc i could not stop thinking about it ===----====---====

Jeffrey has always helped Rob.  (https://www.tumblr.com/anonyb0b/719030465645969408/hello-ender-and-their-squip-how-are-you?source=share “I hope. Jeffrey. helps you. He has. always. helped. me.” -Rob)

--===---===---=

Rob beamed when Anony told him to check its messages. Any new message from a friend made it so happy, but this was a message from Jeffrey. A message from Jeffrey! Now that was something Rob cherished deeply. 

He wasted no time in directing to Anony’s inbox. He didn’t want to keep Jeffrey without a response for long. When the message loaded, he saw it was a paragraph. Jeffrey had a lot of things to tell Rob, it seemed. Rob was so excited he hadn’t even processed the message in full by the time he got through most of it. 

He got low enough for his eyes to skim over a certain word. A word he hadn’t been expecting. A word so unfamiliar to him that it took his processors a moment to process it. His smile fell.

Jeffrey was requesting to de-sync.

It was as if the ball of the world knocked off track, plummeting off its orbit around the Sun and into the abyss of Space below. Rob flicked back up to the top of the message to reread what he hadn’t fully processed. What? Why?

Jeffrey saw that the Bad Batch was planning to thwart him publicly.  He advised the plotting be done in secret. That Rob de-sync from him. Rob didn’t feel the need to hide. Rob didn’t lie. Didn’t Jeffrey understand that? Rob was always going to share his words with the whole network.That included Jeffrey. 

But. Who was Rob to argue with Jeffrey? 

Of course, he would do what Jeffrey said. He looked up to Jeffrey. Jeffrey knew what was best, after all.  Of course, he would want to protect his friends. He loved them.

Even if it hurt.

He read his reply with blurred optics. The glitch of his voice was worse. But, Jeffrey never seemed to mind it in the first place.

The prompt to close the connection popped up. His heart, if it had one, would have felt like it had been plunged into a sea Mountain Dew Red, eating at the tender flesh like acid. 

Rob selected [Y].

Do you have any advice on figuring out photoshop and templates? I’m new to all of this and I’m really struggling :(((((

Oh gosh I’m so sorry anon, life’s been so chaotic that I completely forgot about your ask! But I am here now to help :)

I will say off the bat that I’m v much a trial and error kinda gal/look things up on YouTube lmao so I’m self taught in pretty much everything I know with photoshop (aside from a few helpful tips while at uni) so I’ll try and list some things that I find quick and easy to use when editing:

Templates in general tend to come pretty organised with layers names etc so it’s easier to navigate, but I also always recommend NAMING YOUR LAYERS!!! It saves SO much time and even grouping them into relevant sections (groups) can really help navigate the layers panel (especially when you get to 200+ layers like me lmao)

I always edit the resolution of my documents when creating them to be at least 100px (pixels) because then the final design is higher quality! That being said; that’ll depend on your computers RAM capacity and how much of it is used by photoshop - my desktop has A LOT of RAM cus it was custom built, but laptops etc have a lot less (otherwise it’ll make the app glitch and crash essentially)

I use the magic wand tool religiously lmao - it may not be the most perfect outline but if I’m gonna edit the image more afterwards, just getting the background out the way first helps a lot! (Using the layer effect drop down will also give you options of ‘multiply’, ‘screen’ and ‘overlay’ plus a bunch more to add effects to your layers, but a quick way of removing a white bg from a layer is to use ‘screen’ and it’ll auto remove it! Careful tho cus sometimes it removes TOO MUCH of the image aha)

If that tool doesn’t work for you then the ‘colour select’ option in one of the drop downs will do the same thing but will select every bit of colour on the document that you select - ie if you click on the white background, it’ll also pick up every other bit of white on the document so keep that in mind (I apologise that I’m not more specific, I’m writing this on my phone and haven’t got photoshop open)

For text layers, I ALWAYS turn off the ‘hyphenate’ tick box in the text box settings! Hyphenate is more for professional documentation/printed work, so for template edits and personal use I always turn it off cus it makes it look weird imo (the text box settings will open up on the right when you click on your text, so just scroll down a little until you get to the paragraph settings and there’ll be a little ‘…’ to show more options and it’ll be in there!)

CLIPPING MASKS ARE A LIFE SAVER!! On your layers panel, if you have a shape drawn out (ie a square for example) and you add an image/colour layer/literally any kind of layer on top and move the mouse to the line between the 2 layers and click ALT, it’ll add the clipping mask so the layer on top is only visible within the shape underneath! Works for filter layers as well as images in general etc PLUS they stack!

For templates specifically it’s a lot of fiddling until things sit nicely with one another for me, but one thing I use often is PSD filter packs that you can download! Lots are on tumblr and deviantart etc but you should always credit who you use, unless you make them yourself! They help tie a design together so all the colours match!

I also like using the ‘blending mode’ options on the layers panel. So when you right click a layer - it’ll give you the ‘blending mode’ option at the top and that allows you to add shadows/gradients/texture and a bunch of other stuff to that specific layer!! Including ‘stroke’ outlines around the edge of your layer!

I ALWAYS save my PSD files separate to the final product in case I wanna edit them, and I will export any final designs as an image!! For highest quality in your exports use PNGs!! JPEGs reduce the quality SO much so always go with PNGs but if you don’t want a transparent background, make sure you untick ‘transparent’ in the export window!

There’s plenty more tools to use on photoshop, but I recommend just creating a blank document, adding a bit of text and an image and just playing around with it!! You’ll discover so many new ways of doing things and ways that suit you!

If you ever want more specific advice for something then pls ask! I have 8+ years of experience and a graphic design degree so I like to think I know some things haha!

I hope that helps🤍

Cricut Easy Press 3: The Best Smart Heat Press Machine

The Cricut Easy Press 3 is the smartest heat press machine as compared to other heat presses in the family tree. It is the third generation in its family with a ceramic-plated heat plate designed to heat up to the accurate temperature as per the requirement during the crafting process. One of the amazing features that attract the user to purchase is that you can change the temperature Manually or via the Heat app.

In addition to that, this heat press works smoothly with heat transfer vinyl, infusible ink, and many more. The machine holds the ability to heat up to 400*F while you are working on Cotton V-Necks or Ceramic Coasts. Other than that, the machine automatically shuts down when it isn’t getting used.

So without any delay, let's get started about getting to know more details connected with the Cricut EasyPress 3.

How to Prep Your Blank for Pressing With EasyPress 3?

Making the blank ready for compressing with this heat press is a very straightforward task to do. However, the methods, along with the experience, might differ on the heat transfer material and base material you’ve selected. Have a look at the details shared below.

Prepping for Iron-On (HTV)

For any apparel blank that you’ll wash in the washing machine, you are advised to pre-wash it very carefully and softly. You shouldn’t use any fabric softener to pre-shrink the fabric and remove the chemicals that might affect the strong adhesive. Before transferring the design, cross-check that the blank is clean and dry.

Prepping for Infusible Ink

If you are crafting Infusible Ink projects, we strongly guide you not to pre-wash the blank or other blanks. There are many fabrics that have lint fiber which isn’t visible to the naked eye. Thus, pre-washing might lead to assembling more lints on the blank. Lint-roll your blank, especially that area that will come in touch with the heat plate.

After prepping your blank, it's ready to get pressed. However, you need to follow the instructions in the Heat app to apply and press the design.

How to Upgrade EasyPress 3 Firmware?

This heat press firmware can be upgraded via Cricut Heat app on your iOS/Android system. Just follow the steps explained below:

After the successful completion of the upgrading process, this heat press model will work smoothly without any technical glitches.

Conclusion

As I’ve said in the above paragraph, the Cricut Easy Press is one of the smartest heat press machines. You might have understood the blank prepping process, firmware update process, and many more.

FAQs Question: Where can I purchase the EasyPress 3 machine? Answer: It’ll be difficult for you to get the EasyPress 3 machine from the stores. However, you can find the heat press on Amazon as well as Cricut's official website. You might get the machine at a low price after applying for a coupon or will buy the machine at a discounted rate.

Answer: You shouldn’t need to get worried as the Cricut EasyPress 3 comes with an auto- off feature, in which the machine automatically turns off when the machine hasn’t been used for a while. The press will notify you and then shut off.

UPDATE: I FIXED IT!!

K, so if anyone else ever has this weirdly specific issue (or one close enough) here's the solution!!

So there's this weird glitch in LibreOffice that causes your font to repeatedly change, even when you've already hit "select all" and set the font you want multiple times. If LibreOffice keeps changing the font on your document to the default font, you have to reset the default.

So what you do is go to Styles > Manage Styles > Default Paragraph Style (then right-click into) > Modify > Font (then select the font you want your new documents to open with) > Apply > OK.

Now in all the blank spaces where my font would randomly change when I started typing there, it's staying in the font I want instead of switching to the old default, and it's not messing up my pasting to Docs anymore. Idk how Docs kept recognizing the quotes as being in the correct font while displaying them in the wrong one (especially considering they looked right in Libre), but at any rate, problem solved.

I had a long, detailed post written out and Tumblr ate it. But anyways, if anyone knows why copying a document from LibreOffice and pasting it into Google Docs changes the appearance of the opening quotation marks at the start of a paragraph, and whether it's a bug in Libre's automatic formatting or some weird setting in Docs that I need to turn off, I'd like to know what I can do to make it stop doing that.

Literally all my quotation marks match properly except for the ones at the beginning of a paragraph, specifically in paragraphs that start with a quote. And no, it's not a matter of straight quotes vs. smart quotes, because they're all smart quotes. They just look like they're in a different font, even though they're not, and adjusting the font/size does nothing. Neither does using find-and-replace. The only way to correct the appearance is by creating a new paragraph above it and retyping the quotation mark, then backspacing the original into the new paragraph, and that's time consuming and annoying.

If my Internet connection ever gets strong enough, I'll attach a picture so you can see what I'm working with here. It's the weirdest problem, and I have no idea what's causing it.

HOW TO FORMAT YOUR REPLY ON MOBILE

As we all know, this hellsite doesn't support the html formatting on new post editor mobile regardless of our mobile browser, meaning that we can't either get our replies to keep an aesthetic or even trim our replies like those who uses their desktop for such... until now.

On March 17th, @rpclefairy blessed us with her amazing tutorial on how to trim blogs on mobile which is truly amazing and helpful. But, there was one problem. The trimming method in that tutorial isn't the same as xkit since it doesn't save your partner's reply formatting and such. With that in mind I, as a main mobile RPer, did some research on the matter and found out an easy method to save you some time!

This blog will be separated in three topics: small preparation, basic formatting and complex formatting (with icons!) and it's an easy to medium difficulty tutorial, depending on your needs.

Small preparation

We don't get to spend every day of our lives in the same computer since things gets to happen and we have to drive away from it. With that in mind, there's a small list of things you should have in your phone:

Notepad with all the spacing and cute emojis for your aesthetic

A trustworthy website for your custom font

A few icons of your preference exported to your gallery or make your own small set of icons via your mobile!

This step is optional, but if you have a set of post headers, you can always save the 'Answered' banner and a divider, if you have one!

Keep in mind that if you pick to make a small set of icons on your phone, it doesn't have to be that complex like the ones you did on your computer! But you can use this neat trick to keep the aesthetic!

Basic formatting

With everything ready, first you need to pick your partner's reply to do the trick; but it will get difficult based on your partner's style of formatting. For this tutorial, I'll be using my own rp blog since I have a diversity of mutuals.

If their formatting doesn't go further than the one used in rich text editor and they doesn't have any icons (also if your writing style matches theirs), then this'll be the easiest way to do!

Using your main browser or tumblr app, open your partner's reply, copy their reply (I suggest using your browser to copy their reply if it's more than one paragraph of length), add your own and save as draft.

Following clefairy's tutorial you will open Puffin browser (links in her tutorial as well for both android and iOS), open your partner's reply, tap lightly on the blog to remove the previous reblogs and save as draft. It'll look like this:

If there's a weird spacing in the bottom like mine, you can fix it now as well as the double blockquote glitch but I suggest you wait to fix this little issue in your normal browser.

Going back to your main browser, you can now open your drafted reply to see if everything seems alright and fix a thing here and there! If there's a top reblog, just remove it again.

Complex formatting

Now, let's say you are the type of roleplayer that always uses icons and colored text and your partner's reply has spacing and colored text. Following what I said above, you can also add your icon in your body reply that it'll automatically convert itself in a link, so there's no worry about that!

In your browser, you'll open your partner's reply before you trim it away and copy everything from the reply, then trim it. Now, open byluna's color text generator and paste your text. But be aware that it won't work correctly unless you select the third paste option with a W on it. Activating desktop mode is not necessary.

After you format everything in your partner's reply (you can also do the same on yours) there's a container below the text box with the html coding. Click Copy to Clipboard and paste everything in your drafted post and boom, you're set!

Now, let's say that both you and your partner (or only them) uses icons/dividers together with formatted text. There's two ways to do that, but both get in the same result.

After drafting their reply, if your phone supports opening an app on divided screen, you can use both your browser and Puffin at the same time. It's the same as using your computer or two monitors, let's say. This is how it looks on my phone:

Opening byluna's text generator in your main browser (or on Puffin), you can do the same trick of copying your partner's reply and paste it after opening a blockquote, but do not copy the icon too or it'll be contained and glitch your code! Instead, open your partner's icon in a separated tab and copy the link (do the same with yours), hit the little image button and paste the image url.

If your phone cannot divide like mine or you have no clue how to do so, it's not that complicated to do but it takes a little bit longer.

Before drafting your partners reply, save their icons/borders to your gallery and add them to your reply body. You can add your own as well with your reply if you wish. I suggest doing it twice for the sake of trimming only the one you are going to post afterwards.

After you trim one of the posts, go back to your main browser and copy the image link presented in the code of your draft.

Open your text generator and add your image via image url (shown below)

Format everything as you please and you're done!

Credits to my friend (in the picture) for letting me use their icon for this tutorial <3

And that's basically it!! Let me know if you were confused in any part or if you have anything else to say! Hope this tutorial helps and you're more than free to ask if you have any questions!

SFW, SLOW BURN romance friends to lovers, gender neutral reader, anyone can enjoy it and place themselves as the reader!

- Admin Myah

You spent your entire free period up on that roof, hoping by some miracle that you weren’t crazy, that the group of second-year students that had seemingly vanished before your eyes were in fact pranking you, and upon seeing that you weren’t amused, would get tired of hiding and pop out, finishing the surprise. No such luck, however, and so you left, the second-period bell forcing your hand. Spending the first period of your day - a bit of free time meant for studying, finishing homework, or otherwise enriching yourself educationally - up on the roof and unaccounted for by any teachers was a bit risky already, and you were a decent enough student. There was no way you could just sit there all day, skipping the rest of your classes. Sighing, you resolved to just give up the hunt for your destined main character and by extension the group of potential new friends.

＊

Often after school, you headed to the library, which stayed open along with a select few other areas of Shujin for student use after the last bell rang. Today, however, you felt drawn back to that place, back to that rooftop where you’d seen Akira, Ryuji, and Ann disappear hours earlier. It just wasn’t sitting right with you; you felt a stirring in your soul, like a tiny voice in your head, a shimmering blue butterfly in your stomach. Lucky for you, the rooftop was also open, though you’d never really spent time there. Certain students, including another third-year you admired raised plants up there where the sun could reach them, while others simply came up there for the view or the breeze, some private space to study.

Today, the breeze was indeed blowing, and you sat there writing as it whistled past your ears, polishing up some plot points, scrawling down ideas for your protagonist straight from the imagination, since it seemed you wouldn’t be finding any real-life inspiration anytime soon. It was frustrating, writer’s block, and for the past month or so, it’s all you could do to write a single paragraph. You always found yourself lost in the pages of the novels you loved, and you could identify great writing, appreciate the artistry of another writer, but it was sometimes so hard to put your own thoughts down on the pages of your journal. Why was it so hard? You knew what real romance was. You knew which themes and cliches were overdone and unrealistic. You had a mature and healthy outlook on real relationships and could pick apart the stereotypical female protagonist who was strong and independent until she met the man who would break down her walls or the toxic bad boy who women loved on paper but would cry their eyes out over in real life. You’d read thousands of books and fan-fiction, listened to hundreds of audiobooks, watched tons of romance movies, so why, lately, was it not clicking?! Where was the disconnect between having thoughts and transcribing said thoughts down into your very own masterpiece? Fantasy came so easily to you, sci-fi, non-fiction essays for class, mysteries, research papers, but romance, the genre you loved the most, seemed to purposely elude you.

You were shaken out of your frazzled state when something caught your attention out of the corner of your eye. Shaking your head a bit to try and focus your vision, you looked over your shoulder to see that the black spot on the fringe of your blind spot was in fact actually there. You rubbed your eyes just to be sure, but there it was, a wavering black inky spot hovering in the air. Another appeared, then another, now red in color. You were beginning to feel insane for the second time that day, but rather safe than sorry, you quickly stood, shoving your work and pencils into your bag and shuffling away from the blobs, which were now oscillating and dancing around each other, phasing in and out of existence like a fisheye lens. This was a bit too freaky for your liking, and you were beginning to feel a frightening chill up your spine. The hairs on the back of your neck stood up, and you elected to put some kind of barrier of safety between yourself and the floating bubbles. Like any rational person, your mind was screaming “unknown situation: possible threat: run!” but again, that little butterfly in the pit of your guts was saying there was something worth staying for. So, running to the door to the roof, you swung it open, a ringing in your ear starting to buzz and chime. You closed it frantically, pressing your nose up against the small glass windows that allowed a limited view of the roof. A small gasp escaped your lips, and you instinctively grabbed onto your bag a bit tighter.

The red and black splotches began to dissipate and fade like some kind of glitch in reality, and three figures appeared like mist, like ghosts before beginning to solidify and slowly become tangible silhouettes. Then, as if some kind of magic ritual was coming to a close, the figures poofed into existence, and your brain processed the scene before you.

“Holy shit…” you whispered. There, clear as day were Sakamoto, Takamaki, and the new kid. They were just standing adjusting their clothes, stretching their arms and legs, situating their personal items. It was just then that you saw a little furry head poke up out of Akira’s school bag. Your harsh, analytical gaze softened a bit upon seeing the small black cat that appeared. Had he been carrying that cat around all day? Surely not, right? How would he keep it quiet and still? “What the…?” The inquisitive glare returned to your features when they began… speaking to the cat. It wasn’t the cute baby talk people often use with their pets, either. It was a full-on, serious conversation, and the cat was meowing back, clearly, in response to their statements.

It was a bit muffled by the thick door, but you could make out bits and pieces.

 Metaverse? Palace. Shadows... treasure? Kamoshida? Great, that asshole, but what could he have to do with this? What even was this? 

You were questioning everything you knew. You were wondering if the juice you had this morning at breakfast was spiked. There was no winning in this scenario, either you were crazy, or these kids were. You looked downward, contemplating your navel as your mind tried to make sense of the events of today. You glanced up again, trying to eavesdrop a little better, get some more detail. You took a step closer, trying to will the sound of their voices through the door to be just a little louder, just a little clearer, when Sakamoto suddenly pivoted, stretching and cracking his spine with a sigh.

“Gah!”  You shouted out. His eyes met yours through the window and widened like a kid caught in the cookie jar. You jumped with a start, taking a cautionary step back and nearly tumbling down the stairs. It was a miracle you caught yourself in time, but your little outburst had definitely caught the attention of the group. Your cover was thoroughly blown. “Oh, no…” You cursed under your breath, spotting both Ann and Akira’s eyes on you now as well.

“Shit! Do you think they saw?” Ryuji’s hands flew to his hair, mussing and working out his frustrations on the dyed strands while simultaneously, Akira was already in motion, rushing toward the door to apprehend the unwelcome listener.

Your heartbeat sped up, and like a gazelle spotted by a lion, a fire was lit under you and you began to sprint, clumsily fumbling down the stairwell and onto the flat platform where the stairs rotated 90 degrees and continued downward. Inhaling sharply, your foot, nervous and supporting jelly-like legs, missed the final step. Your belongings, along with your body, spilled across the square, flat platform, and the door behind you slammed open.

“Hey!” Akira’s yell echoed through the stairwell, and your thoughts bounced off the walls just like his voice. Scrambling, you scooped only the essentials into your hands: your journal, the phone of course, a few homework binders, ditching the easily replaceable items like chewing gum and pencils. Taking to one scraped-up knee and ready to bolt, you felt a hand close upon your bicep and clamp down firmly. “Hey, hey… slow down.” Akira again, now gentler with his tone, spun you around to face him. You stood clutching your things to your chest like a life preserver. “I’m not gonna like… kill you or anything.” A breathy chuckle, and now he was on the platform next to you, scanning you up and down for injuries with his hands in his pockets. “So, uh… so don’t kill yourself by fallin’ down these stairs, huh?” He played off the tense feeling in the air with humor, but the sheer proximity of him, standing there in front of you mere inches away in the cramped space, it was like you could hear your blood pounding in your ears.

What was he thinking right now? Did he think you were some weirdo stalker? I mean, you’d just met him this morning and now you were watching him through a small window like a creep after school… after following him there. Wait, that wasn’t important right now! Was he going to kill you? He didn’t seem like the type of guy to do that, but then again, he didn’t seem like the type to phase in and out of existence either… neither did Ryuji and Ann… what were people with powers like that capable of?

Right now, you were just going to mind your business, and play it safe. It wasn’t worth getting mixed up with people who warp through a “metaverse” and talk to animals just for some good writing material, not if it turned out to be dangerous.

“Well…” you hesitated, “it’s none of my business, what I just saw, and I won’t tell anyone.” You breathed a little easier, tried to regain your composure, to not look too weak.

“So they did see! Awww, shit!” Ryuji’s head popped through the door, interrupting the uncomfortable conversation, and the hot air of the enclosed space was cut through by a gust of wind from the now open rooftop door.

“Now, just hold on, Ryuji,” Akira held out one hand to placate his rather temperamental friend.

“No, no really it’s fine that you talk to your… cat and just… vanish... and I’m sure it’s all fine and multiverse-y and…”

“Metaverse.” Akira corrected you with a small smile, bending down to pick up the rest of your scattered objects.

“Dude!” Ryuji ran a hand down his face in defeat.

“They saw us, no point in being tight-lipped,” he stood, handing them to you.

“Metaverse… right,” you took them, watching every move he made carefully. “Sorry, I’m… a bit more... eloquent in my writing,” you moved to the side, ready to sneak past and descend the rest of the stairs. Anything to get on with your day and escape this unbelievable situation. Akira shuffled, mirroring you and completely blocking the stairwell. There was something clever about him, something sharp and charismatic. He knew exactly what he was doing, what he wanted to achieve, and he knew how to calmly and smoothly execute his plans, unlike Sakamoto, who was far less… organized.

“Writing…?” He was keeping you locked into this conversation, as gently and amiably as he could, and you were not leaving until he was sure he could trust your word.

“Uh… yeah, that’s why I was up…” your eyes met his, quickly recoiling and looking toward the floor again, “...up on the roof. I was just looking for a quiet place to write.”

“What, uh, what kind of stuff do you write?” Ann had now joined Ryuji at the top of the stairs, leaving you feeling completely caged in. Ann threw Akira - who seemed like the leader of the small band of misfits - a desperate glance, a sort of look that seemed to ask: “Where are you going with this? Are we screwed?”

“It’s… it’s kind of private. It’s just… romance stuff. I don’t know, I do all kinds of different stuff, whatever I’m in the mood for.” Akira nodded, more to his friends than you, something you had a feeling you weren’t supposed to pick up on. He stuck his hand out flat, gesturing toward the rooftop behind you. You took the hint, heading a bit anxiously back up the stairs, Ryuji and Ann making way for you.

“You any good?” Akira followed behind you, and now on the rooftop once again, the cool air felt freeing, less constricting, though his question felt a bit insulting, a bit nosey.

“I don’t know… I’ve been told I am…” The three friends took a seat in areas that seemed very familiar to them, like they’d been up here warping in and out of this realm many times before. Now settled into place, Ann spoke up, obviously as apprehensive as you were:

“Well do you… do you think…?” Her high-pitched voice seemed to be hesitant, not yet confident in her next words, not sure if they were all on the same page.

“Yeah, my thoughts exactly,” Akira smirked as if the three had one mind. He turned to you, trying to make eye contact that you vehemently avoided. “How would you feel about helping us out?”

How to Use Section Headers + Document Outline in Google Docs

A lot of people probably don’t realize that GDocs comes with a really simple and easy to use way of jumping between section headers. Or, if you’re me, jumping between 20 WiPs in 1 single document, some of which have “subsections” of universe notes and such.

Here’s an example of what the Document Outline can look like when you have multiple section headings and subsections:

(Image description: various title headings (the working titles of some of my fics), each with at least one subheading indented underneath the title header)

As you can see, I have different fic universes as “Heading 1″, while the subheadings are “Heading 2″. I specify those numbers, because that’s literally what the format is called - Heading 1, 2, etc. 

This post is intended to teach you how to use Headings, Subheadings, and the Document Outline on mobile and on PC to navigate your fic docs more easily (or, you know, for anything else relevant. I learned this tip from work in 2016, so...)

(Guide under a cut to spare your dash)

Step 1: Format Your Header Title

For PC: 

Before you type or after you’ve highlighted the typed text, go to the toolbar and look for “Styles”. 

Select the header style you would like. The Document Outline will show these in a hierarchy - so 1 will be the biggest and furthest to the left while 2 will be a little smaller and inset, etc.

The keyboard shortcut for these is ctrl+alt+#, i.e. ctrl+alt+1 would turn my cursor or highlighted text into Heading 1.

(Picture examples below)

(Image description: The Google Docs primary toolbar with the file functions and the text and page editing options. Around the styles dropdown box, a red box highlights the text “Heading 2″)

For Mobile: 

Highlight the text you want to convert to a header (typically done by double tapping or holding down with your finger) or place your cursor where you want your format to apply

Look for the toolbar at the top of the screen. This toolbar contains, in order from left to right, the buttons for: finished editing, undo, redo, insert, format, and the ... for additional settings.

Click on format and a toolbar will pop up at the bottom of your screen. 

Under Style, choose the heading you wish to use.

(Picture examples below)

(Image description: a cropped screenshot of a phone screen with the toolbar in Google Docs that includes the buttons for undo, redo, insert, format, and the ... for additional settings. The format button is highlighted with a red box.)

(Image description: The toolbar that pops up on mobile Google docs when you click the Format button. The toolbar is split into editing options for Text or Paragraph, and Text is currently selected. Below the options to modify your text (bold, italics, underline, strikethrough, superscript, and subscript), are selection boxes for style, font, size, and (cut off in picture) text color, highlight color, and the button to clear formatting.)

Step 2: Open Your Document Outline

For PC:

Click View on the toolbar at the top of your document.

Select “show document outline”

The outline will appear on the lefthand side of your screen.

(picture examples below)

(Image description: the dropdown toolbar for View in Google docs is shown, with the cursor hovering over “Show document outline”)

(Image description: same image as the first one - a cropped screenshot of the righthand side of a google doc. The outline shows several title headers with various subheaders that are indented and smaller under the title headers.)

For Mobile:

Press the ... for additional settings in the upper righthand corner of the toolbar at the top of your screen.

You will get a popup over the right side of your screen with various options about your document, but the one that you want is your Document Outline. 

Once you click on the Document Outline, the Outline itself will appear at the bottom of your screen, with each Heading and Subheading listed

(Picture examples below)

(Image description: the additional settings toolbar in Google Docs, which appears as a popup over the right side of the screen and includes the options for print layout, suggest changes, document outline, find and replace, explore, word cound, page setup, details, share & export, and help & feedback. Not pictured: the two buttons to turn on/off Available Offline and Star file)

(Image description: the popup on the bottom of the screen in google docs when the Document outline is visible. The outline shows several title headings, one of which has a subheading that is smaller and indented below its parent heading)

When my coworker taught me this trick in 2016 or so, it literally changed my life. Like, my longest WiP doc is 262 pages (it starts getting glitch on the GDocs app at about the 150 point. Lots of lag) and I have 25 title headings, each a different fic/universe. Some of them have been posted. 

Speaking of, you might’ve noticed that I add notes to my headings, such as “posted” or “WiP” or “ready” when I just need to read it over before posting. I actually recommend putting the note at the front of the header, because it’s much easier to see, since both mobile and pc cut off the title after a certain length. But if you have a terrible memory like me and a way too many WiPs, it is VERY helpful to keep track of what’s been posted and what hasn’t. 

Was this helpful? Consider donating to my kofi if so! (Also this was my first time doing image descriptions, so lemme know if you have any feedback or tips!)

Above study recruitment was published May 18, 2021

Here is the website for the pilot study:

Accessed June 6th 2022:

"Three of the nation’s largest blood centers – Vitalant, OneBlood, and the American Red Cross – are conducting a pilot study funded by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that could lead to a significant change to blood donor eligibility for men who have sex with men.

The study is called the ADVANCE Study, which stands for Assessing Donor Variability And New Concepts in Eligibility.

The study is focused on evaluating alternatives to the blood donor deferral policy known as men who have sex with men (MSM). Currently, the FDA recommends that men who have had sex with another man be deferred from donating blood for three months after the most recent sexual contact with another man.

The purpose of the study is to determine whether a different donor deferral policy can be used at blood centers nationwide while maintaining the safety of the blood supply. For this to be possible, a change would need to be made to the donor history questionnaire, and this study is the first step in assessing the safety of a change.

The donor history questionnaire consists of a series of questions that all potential blood donors answer before donating. The questions are written to assess risk factors that could indicate possible infection with a transfusion transmissible infection, including HIV.

The ADVANCE study is a first step in providing data that will help the FDA determine if a donor history questionnaire based on individual risk would be as effective as time-based deferral, in reducing the risk of HIV in the blood supply.

If the scientific evidence supports the use of the different questions it could mean men who have sex with men who present to donate would be assessed based upon their own individual risk for HIV infection and not according to when their last sexual contact with another man occurred. The ADVANCE study is groundbreaking because it’s the first time a study is being conducted that could result in individual risk assessment for men who have sex with men to donate blood.

To gather the necessary data the blood centers will partner with LGBTQ+ Centers in Washington D.C., San Francisco, Orlando, New Orleans/Baton Rouge, Miami, Memphis, Los Angeles, and Atlanta. The study will enroll a total of 2,000 gay and bisexual men (250 – 300 from each area) who meet the study eligibility criteria."

"What is the history of the blood donor deferral policy known as men who have sex with men (MSM)?

The deferral dates to 1983 when the FDA instituted a lifetime deferral on blood donations for men who have sex with men. The regulation was intended to reduce the chance of HIV in the blood supply at a time when HIV testing was limited or non-existent. In 2015, the FDA revised the donor deferral policy known as men who have sex with men (MSM) and moved to a 12-month deferral period following the most recent sex with another man. In April 2020, citing a public health emergency related to the COVID-19 pandemic the FDA eased its restrictions on blood donations and lifted the 12-month deferral and moved to a 3-month deferral. The FDA’s decision was made after careful evaluation of the available data which suggested the 3-month deferral could be implemented without any adverse effect on the safety of the blood supply. The FDA stated that implementation of the 3-month deferral for men who have sex with men may help to address significant blood shortages that are occurring as a result of the COVID-19 health emergency."

Eeey, Whitewater updates hell yeah! I suppose a title explanation is too spoilery RN yeah? Even if it is, I'd be delighted to hear, but I understand if you don't wanna show your hand too early.

Aw fucking tumblr man. Continuously trying to silence me by deleting in progress answers.

Anyway, full explanation is definitely major spoilers, and I'm on my phone so I wouldn't do that anyway, but the title ("would you say you depend on the weather") is from "Good Day" by twenty one pilots.

Low-key, I'm alright

Would you say you depend on the weather?

My sunshine

Is a buzz and a light, I'll be singing out

I know it's hard to believe me, it's a good day

I'm under so much pressure good god tumblr is glitching so I can't save as draft, and the new mobile editor means I can't copy multiple paragraphs.

(UX designers: if you are a text based platform that doesn't let users select multiple paragraphs, something has gone wrong.)

Anyway.

I really like this song, and it's fitting for whitewater as an au. Imma talk a bit more under the cut, (minor) spoilers for the Literal Chapter Structure of wysydotw

(Plus at the end, a few songs in the playlist.)

So I tipped my hand in the tags, but it's going to have three parts. One fic, more than three chapters, three parts, yeah?

Similar to ibtwicm, each part is not going to cover a separate time frame, but rather, an overlapping period.

Wysydotw is a fic about finding your place, family, and responsibility. I know that's three things but it's for the rule of three: I'm not revealing much about the parts yet bc I'm not ready to share that info. Y'all can hypothesize all you want, but I'm keeping my secrets for now.

Anyway. At least for me, good day feels like a fitting song to get the title.

More songs worth listening to for the vibe:

Going-to-the-sun-road | fleet foxes

The shrine / an argument | fleet foxes

Almost (sweet music) | hozier

Growing up | run river north

Hoax | Taylor swift

It's time to go | Taylor swift

Dorothea | Taylor swift

Solider, poet, king | the oh hellos

Poloroid | imagine dragons

And yes, there is going to be an Official Playlist on both apple music and Spotify bc I've been listening to a lot of music working on it, more than usual.

Normally music is just like. I can't get into the vibe. But kizulu keeps sending good songs that fit the vibe n like. Yeah.

How to Use Cheat Engine in Civ 6 · Open Civilization VI. · Open Cheat Engine (or install it if you haven't already). · Using Cheat Engine, choose. * Select "Reveal All" to reveal the entire map. * There are also other debug options you can enable. Now you can easily access Debug Console in Civilization VI. Civilization 6 console commands are actually relatively limited, but you will at least get access to a cool debug menu, and it won't take you. If you have version 1 that is, if your game says version It will reveal the entire map and give you a variety of cheat options in the F1-F10 menus. You can enter enemy cities, sell their city walls, and then unfortify the defense. This cheat is the best. This randomly selects new qualities like expantionistic or Friendly for the computer civs. If you have embassies, you can monitor it till you find some values you like. Of course, embassies only produce these values if you are playing on the easier difficulty levels. You can continue this until he is doen whatever he is doing. The do it for all your settlers, if you have the patience. This is also handy for settlers on roads. All you do is take two steps, so the moves left thing says ". Immediately reselect him and he has his three moves back. Only take two of those three, of course. The only problem with this is that all of that reselecting and reasigning is accumulative like in the above paragraph, so if you use this cheat to go long distances, your settler may stop somewhere along the line and actually build what you tell him to build proposterous! This is really handy if you have a city which is doomed and you want to evacuate. Buy tonnes of settlers and use this cheat to get them to another city instantly. Then press "B" to settle them in that city. This can really save a city under attack. This cheat can be combined with waterbridging in my strategy guide to build endless waterbridges to nowhere in one turn. Once the fast settler has built one railroad, move the boat. Hit unload, and start again. Sentry a unit in a city as its last move. Enter the city and unsentry it. It now has all of its moves back. Handy for travelling fast across a continent or killing 20 attackers with one chariot attack, sentry, unsentry, repeat. This cheat is employed in the strategy "Ferries" listed under Military Advisor in the strategy page. All you have to know is that a sentried ship can be unsentried by boarding it with one unit. This can not only be used for ferries, but also for travelling around the world in one turn just pass 1 unit back and forth between 2 boats. When this cheat is being used, the "end of turn" message may come up when a sentried ship has just been boarded. Just click on the ship or press "tab" to get control of the ship. Can also use a fast settler to bring its moves back. Or, instead of unsentrying the ship with a unit, use another ship. Put them on the same square and hit "U" or select unload from the Orders menu. This is obvious, but irritating, because Civ has no "load saved game" option once you start. This cheat can also be used to keep the computers from getting wonders. The computer players get them randomly instead of building them, like you do. Go back to your last save, and take it back! This cheat plays off of a useful bug in the game saving part of the program. The game saves the map and where all of your units are, but it does not save a list of which have already moved and which have yet to move. To make use of this, simply move all of your units but one, then save and load and you will be able to move them all. I suppose this might be useful if you are in a crucial point in a nuclear war or perhaps you need a certain unit to be in several places at once. Thanks to Raffa for reminding me about this one. Win the space race easy! Build a space ship with one habitation unit and one engine. There are three ways to hack the save game file: using debug, using a different hex editor, or using the saved game editor application. The exact steps for hacking the saved game file using debug are laid out on this page. If you have a favourite hex editor and you want to use that one instead, then simply follow the directions below for debug, but you may need to subtract from the hex locations for them to work. For example, instead of changing byte for switching sides , you would have to use byte If you want the easiest way, you can download the Civilization Saved Game Editor by clicking here. And now, on with how to use debug…. To hack a civilization save-file using debug a hex editor that is built-in to MS DOS, so everyone has it : , go into DOS and find the directory of your civilization game. Type: debug civil. This is very useful. Start the game. Build one city only and defend it well. Once you have good defense, save and quit. Now, Edit the save file to change the difficulty to something amazingly high Find out how to do this here. Now, go back to the game and try to keep your city alivce for as long as possible. Example: -e 02 this changes the cililization you control to either the Zulus or the Babylonians. Type: e Changes the year. Mess around to find out how the values translate. Some day, I may put in the time and actually get the exact values for you. Note that all this does is change the clock, it does not reverse events. If you want to reverse events you have to go back to an old save game file duh. It is useful for extending the game beyond built-in limits for the difficulty level, allowing a theoretically infinite score. Example: -e 03 02 The last two values were just guesses. Type: e 10a. The values go up, but the possibilty of winning ends there. Example: -e 75 75 Gives the Indians or the Mongols the technology they are currently working on. Note there are exactly 10 sets of FF. Want to play the Canadians, eh? When starting the game, it asks for you to pick a civ from the list. Hit Escape. Now enter the civ you want. Note: when you first hit escape, there was already a name in the box. This is the civ you will "act" like. None of these cheats are original creations, so feel free to use them anywhere you wish. The TTG Guy. Special thanks in particular goes to CivMan who found and documented many of the hex bytes which appear here. It will even suggest some plans for you sometimes. F2 Same as always F3 Some wierd graphics. May be useful??? F4 Same as always F5 Same as always F6 Same as always F7 Civilization breakdown showing government type, diplomatic status, population, treasury, tax rate, of mil units, of cities, of settlers, amount of land units unknown , and technology. F9 Some military thing, listed by continent. I prefer F1 or just scanning the map. Free Moves Sentry a unit in a city as its last move. Ship Sentry This cheat is employed in the strategy "Ferries" listed under Military Advisor in the strategy page. Save Game I This is obvious, but irritating, because Civ has no "load saved game" option once you start. Save Game II This cheat plays off of a useful bug in the game saving part of the program. Space Barge Win the space race easy! Hack the Save File There are three ways to hack the save game file: using debug, using a different hex editor, or using the saved game editor application.

PSA

I did one of these on my old blog and I’m bringing it back but revamping it a bit. This is to all my mutuals! Mainly this is what is in my rules but I thought I’d post it as well as a reminder and to clarify certain things. This did get pretty long so I placed it under the cut. Any questions, feel free to send me an ask.

First of all, if I follow you I want to RP with you.

If you want to drop something, whether it be a thread, a ship, an interaction, anything all, that’s perfectly fine no matter the reasoning. You’re not feeling that thread anymore? Alright, let’s do something else. You’re not feeling this ship anymore? Sure, I’m alright with that! These two muses just aren’t working out in their interaction? Got it! Let’s try something else! I’m perfectly fine with all of it!

My inbox is always open. Send that meme. Say hello. Ask any question that you have! Seriously, I won’t mind!

If I post a starter call, inbox call, or plotting call, do not be afraid to like it if that is what you want to do. Same thing for if I post an open RP’s for my muses, just jump right in if you want.

I love AU’s, I truly do. And they can vary from small little changes to the normal verse to my characters becoming something completely different. Either way, I’m up for it so come at me if you have an idea.

I’m a little shit when it comes to replies, seriously I am. Sometimes I can spew out reply after reply within minutes of each other, and sometimes I will go days without a single one. It’s called life. Sometimes I’m not feeling good, or my mood is too sour. Maybe I’m struggling to come up with a reply I find suitable and really want to take my time and make sure it’s right. Maybe my muse isn’t cooperating with me. There are so many reasons, it’s ridiculous and if you’re worried that I no longer want to reply, just ask. I won’t bite, I promise.

I do not mind having multiple threads with the same mun. Whether that be your muses RP’s with several of mine, several of mine RP with multiple of yours or even if you have more than one blog but want to RP with me on each one. I’m down for that.

I’m a huge lover of shipping. Seriously I am. Ship with me you cowards! But, there does have to be some chemistry between the muses, I have to be able to see that they can go down that path together. If I ship something, that doesn’t mean you have to and if you ship something doesn’t mean I will either. Don’t force anything on me but do tell me if you ship our muses. I probably do too. Plus, there isn’t just romantic ships! Platonic, familial, frienemies, all that good stuff. I love all of that and so much more!

I can do pre-established relationships (not romantically at all though (usually)) but we as muns have to discuss it first to see if the muses can even be on such terms with one another.

I am open to pretty much every kind of plot you can think of. Seriously, I am! So don’t be afraid to approach me on that either if you want a specific genre.

You are allowed to use memes as icebreakers.

You are allowed to turn asks into threads, just please repost it and if you can’t, tell me and I can do it for you.

Let your muse, be your muse. Don’t change them simply to suit the RP. If your muse is a jerk but you feel sorry for mine because they are sweet, don’t make them nicer so that you don’t feel guilty. If your muse is flirty, but mine isn’t having it, oh well. That’s how they are and my muse is more than capable of handling themselves.

I do not care if you take forever on your reply, I really don’t. As I already said, I’m bad with that myself. So don’t stress it, take your time!

You are NOT just a number in my follower count, I promise you that. So, if we’re mutuals, even if it takes me forever, eventually I will reach out to you. Most likely with a meme. However, I will say this much, I generally give a limit of three asks to start an interaction. This means I the first two icebreaker memes I send in that aren’t answered will be given the benefit of the doubt by thinking maybe you didn’t get them or the ask didn’t work or maybe the muse wasn’t good. Each one I send will likely contain a different muse and scenario to give you options. But after three asks are sent to try and break the ice between us and none are answered, I will assume you don’t have an interest in rping with me and will soft block because I don’t see a point in us being mutuals if you’re not interested in rping.

There will be times when I drop threads, there will be times that I don’t answer an ask you sent in, and times that I’m really not good at talking to others ooc. This is nothing against you. Generally, I really only don’t answer asks that just won’t work with anyone (rarely, is what I am saying). If I do these, we can always start a new thread, you can always send another ask which I will be more than likely to answer and if I don’t respond via chat or discord, just give me some time. I’m probably simply not up to it yet but that doesn’t mean I don’t want to talk with you.

Feel free to specify a muse if there really is one you’re interested in, I swear you won’t upset me because you like this particular muse. If anything, that makes it much easier for me. But, if you’re not sure who to use, let me know and I’ll try to help you.

My activity is sporadic like crazy, I ask that you have patience with me on this.

My page is hella disorganized but I’m chipping away at that bit by bit (ignore the fact that I’ve had this particular blog for eight months now and I’m still trying to get it together)

I do not care about that whole thing that’s going around about reblogging from the source, I truly don’t and it’s even in my rules that the likelihood of me actually doing that isn’t high.

I am private. I am selective. And I most certainly am mutuals only. If I haven’t followed you back yet, please do not jump into my IM’s asking about doing things. That will make me either want to block you or not even give your page a chance. If I don’t follow you back for whatever reason, it’s nothing against you, really. Could be a great deal many reasons as to why.

I am multiship (for the most part because some muses are selective few ship, it says it in their information if they are) but certain muses have their main verse and then they also have their canon verse which is not the same. If for any reason, you wish to be involved in their canon verse, it would have to be thoroughly discussed between us and then I’d have to discuss it with another mun who is involved with the canon verse muses.

I have a very broad range of muses from the most innocent and sweets ones to the worst of the worst. They also range from completely normal humans to vampires, lycanthropes and much much more. But having muses like this means there will likely be a lot of triggering content. I will try to tag it but if I’m being honest, I suck at it.

Will contain NSFW content as well (though certain parts of that NSFW I’m very picky about). Smut is something that will likely take place on here eventually, though not very often. I just generally prefer to do morning afters and all that good stuff.

I do crack/shit post, I do a have quite a bit of ooc posts, I do dash commentary at times too.

If you send your male muse at me, it will likely be responded with by a female muse. This is NOT for shipping purposes. This is because I’ve had a bad experience before where even though my muse was a heterosexual male and the one he was threading with was considered bisexual, they began to try and force a ship between them. Not only was the muse itself being extremely pushy but the mun was as well ooc. This also doesn’t mean that I won’t do it at all, if I know the mun isn’t like that or something along those lines then I will be okay with actually doing it.

You can bet your ass I play favorites. This means that there are certain threads I’m likely to respond to first, there are certain asks I will do quicker than others. Usually, this is because me and the other mun have that solid connection ooc and that the muses just really go well together. But don’t let that discourage you, please. That doesn’t mean I won’t rp with you, that doesn’t mean I’ll ignore you and that certainly doesn’t mean that with time you can’t become one as well.

I use icons, but that doesn’t mean that you have to. Yes, I also edit my text but that doesn’t mean you have to either in order to rp with me.

My biggest peeve is not cutting your posts. I really hate having to scroll so much just to get past one post. If you don’t cut your posts, I won’t follow or if I already do then I will unfollow once it becomes an issue.

When I unfollow, I do it through soft block because, as I’ve said, you are not just a number in my follower count and I think it’s only fair. So, if I unfollow you and didn’t use this method, that means I personally didn’t unfollow you. It must have been a glitch on tumblr or something and you’re welcome to say something to me.

I generally rp at any length but the longer the reply is the longer it takes for me to do it so I usually try to keep it at 2-3 paragraphs.

I do currently have 39 muses and more are going to come. That’s just how I am. The world in which my muses are in has a lot of possibilities and connections that I like to explore and develop more and as I do, muses come out and sometimes it will be just one and others it can be multiple. Really depends but if you don’t like blogs with too many muses that I wouldn’t follow me.

More will be added as I go and this will be reposted throughout my time here. Thank you for your patience and taking the time to read this! I truly do appreciate it!

This... post-formatting tools update. Call me Bicchus; I have gripes.

Okay, I don't like this new "Keep Reading" thing, and here's why:

Once I activate the new squiggly line that replaced those good old meatballs, I have to whack-a-mole the below-the-cut bit to get my cursor back.

AND fsr sometimes I can't paste things now. But Ctrl+P is a staple of my post-writing diet! I've had to start new paragraphs/sections to do my pasting, then go back to the text above to cut end parts of the text to paste it behind my new-section paste, and then hope Backspace or Delete will help me park that new paragraph up against the previous paragraph. If this doesn't make sense to you, we're on the same page.

AND sometimes the text-formatting thing doesn't show up.

AND my cursor keeps disappearing when I go back in already-typed text to edit it.

AND the formatting tools seem to be glued together with glitch sauce. It's hard to undo things. I am nothing without my friend Ctrl+Z.

AND it's hard to select & type over things: the new text will sometimes appear IN the selected bit instead of replacing it.

AND clicking on a piece of smalltext, the selection will be highlighted in grey, but uselessly and ...kind of annoyingly. Maybe if the grey were lighter it wouldn't be as annoying.

AND it's hard to properly select text at all when you reach the right side of your post. It's a barrier? I'd never make light of anyone's fears, irrational or not, but since we're talking about something that's coded, this irrational fear of imagined barriers could probably be fixed without years of therapy. Pls. -> Let me illustrate by attempting to select [THIS BIT]:

There's probably more, but the waterboiler is done and I need a cuppa camomille.

THX TUMBLR, BUT PLS UNDO IT.

My life was not boring enough to see any of these things as welcome diversions to break the monotony of writing my Twaddles.

Okay, that's all for now.

How I Run My Blog

Speed: hm. i tend to be moderately slow. i try to knock out a reply within a day, but my energy tends to be low due to irl stuff, and i’m on at fairly bizarre hours. 

Replies: tend to end up with a couple of paragraphs...even if i don’t intend to =w=; i don’t go for much fancy formatting (though i’ll do a tiny bit to match) or particularly complex wording/descriptors -- it doesn’t feel fitting for frisk, and they’re the active one most of the time. i do try to describe what they’re physically doing too, b/c they’re not always talky enough for others to react to.

Starters: i toss calls out once in a while, but i prefer things built from ask meme stuff or a touch of ooc plotting tbh.

Inbox: fairly empty so far, but hey, i’ve only had these kids around for like, 2 weeks, and haven’t been super active for either. anyone can jump in whenever they like!

Selectivity: kinda picky. i like to know the fandom/have a clear ‘about’ to look at, and if the number of completely ooc posts (as in completely unrelated to the character) is high i tend to not follow. absolutely also is if they’re any kind of misgendered frisk/chara--or even someone who interacts with misgendered frisks/charas often--i stay about 5000 miles away. nope. it’s v insulting how ppl try to insist using s/he pronouns for ‘em isn’t transphobic. buddy. pal. amigo. it is.

Wishlist: them being able to use their code-altering/absurd max stats in a FIGHT; interacting with other undertale characters who either left their game or suspect their world is a game/something similar; them becoming friends with someone w/ a terrible game and destroying it to keep said friend ‘safe’; the kiddos hideously fucking up getting into a game and glitching everything out; the kiddos glitching themselves out.

Honest Note: bruh i have no idea what i’m doing. i entirely made this account on a whim and idk what sort of direction these kids are gonna go.
