#ooc: i'll have to try this

[ahollowgrave]

feeling a little silly but having a genuine emotional reaction to everyone being excited to answer my silly request (':

[scvcnofswords]

i will never force or assume ships- honestly my first goal with establishing contact between characters (including and ESPECIALLY any that mine may have romanced in-game) is just to establish some kind of bond.

Like is there a friendship there? Is there antagonism there? Is there a POTENTIAL for leadup to more, there? Or is this a platonic intimacy? Is this a sibling dynamic? Do these people genuinely care and respect for one another or do they despise one another? What sort of love is there, if any?

and honestly most of the time i will not nudge towards a ship because i'm hyper paranoid about being accused of ships being all i want. The attitude for afab ocs was uh- very different, when i first started with tumblr RP, and it's been literal years but i haven't shaken those anxieties, nor the constant fear that i'm constantly annoying or being a nuisance towards those i'm trying to befriend.

this is honestly just a psa that like- while i love ships, i love EVERY KIND of dynamic that could form between characters, and i'm down to explore any and everything. literally 2 of the most fulfilling dynamics i've formed since showing up here are the platonic soulmate relationships!

give me besties, give me contentious coworkers, give me platonic soulmates and twin flames, give me enemies, give me romantic soulmates, give me doomed loves, give me loves that somehow defeat the odds.

i've changed my mind again!! i am, in fact, going to delete a fuckload of my drafts bc i am!!! not vibing with having all this old stuff & having it stopping me from starting new stuff!!!! this is the year where i finally say fuck it!!! i'm gonna run this blog the way i wanna and i'm gonna do what's the most fun for me!!!! ...not that i didn't enjoy any of the threads i have in my drafts bc i did, i just. i have to do something to get myself energized again and clean slate (mostly) is all i got rn askjfhds

i'm not deleting everything — i've got some specific verse stuff, some plotted and/or specific character moment things, and some starters that i'm holding on to, but. yeah. everything else has to go, i'm so sorry

alrighty, friends, i feel the need to be a little transparent because it's affecting things here. the short version of everything is: i'm not doing so hot in the mental health department. no one needs to be concerned -- i'm okay even if i'm having a hard time. but i just ask that everyone continues to be patient and understanding bc i promise that i'm excited to write and chat!! both new and old mutuals, i have so much admiration for you all!! the problem is that the discomfort and sensitivity i feel are making it increasingly difficult to be punctual and social.

so what does this mean? it means my activity may continue to be extra slow. i might procrastinate with messages or go completely silent. i might not log on some days just so i don't have to use my brain. but however my presence here fluctuates, i promise that in no way this is a reflection of my feelings towards you or our muses. i'm just going through it.

all that said, thank you for being here <3 thank you for filling my dash with things that make me smile, and thank you for being a space where i can relax. i care about all of you so much, and i encourage you to be kind to yourselves!! take breaks!! take your time!! your happiness and health matter first always.

XIII▸ Hello. I have just returned from maintenance on my mech, the M1 Leatherback, and thought in keeping with the goal of this account being the development of my social capacity I would try one of the suggested activities given to me: sharing things about myself.

XIII▸ That's all. Look at Them :}

eight in the morning. too many sunday thoughts to bear. i think this is what he would've wanted when the sun is just barely up and the birds are singing

[stellarcuriosity]

like for a starter!

(( since i'm new here and im scared to interact with people im going to do this instead. feel free to like this post if u want me to try and think up a starter. [bear with me i'm a little out of practice]. if u have a specific verse in mind or would like a certain starburst (i.e. baby mode) pls let me know. also im still a little guy learning about all of the fandom content so i might have some struggles figuring something out BUT WORST CASE I'LL GO WITH SHENANIGANS.))

[fatedvoyage]

would you still love me if i never remember the proper use of ferelden vs fereldan

[micahsawyer]

tiny hiatus, maybe? 🥺 i put off making this post because i was convincing myself i was just gonna wake up one morning afternoon and miraculously get back into the swing of things but that's not a thing that happens so... this is just me officially taking the break i'm already on lmao. the holidays are fucking rough and i literally just do not have the extra energy (if you've sent me a message or checked in - i see you and i love you, i'm currently searching for the spoons. once i have a spare i'm coming for u). i'm putting some hope in the new meds, working on sorting out insurance for the new year, and it's a hectic ass time in general so i need to give myself permission to step away. i'll be back soon and hopefully feeling more like me so we can get back to writing! thank y'all sm for being patient! xoxo

[sungodded]

It always baffles me knowing there's people out there who genuinely get angry when you can't be active online 24/7. God forbid I focus on trying to attain my dream job instead of giving my whole life to online activity. 😱

okay!!! got a couple short replies to tiny starters crammed into my (still paused) queue... it's not much, but it's something. tomorrow i'll try to get a bit more done, maybe restart the queue, etc. etc., but. yeah. baby steps.

[quietlyblooms]

chiyo likes people who bully her; she likes people who're kind to her; shall we just say her type is... people??

I finally restocked the queue! Sorry for my continual Corpse behavior,, but you should have regularly scheduled content again for a bit!
