          OH FUCK--

..R.. Right...?

[eriversible]

@yureinoyoni​ started following you!

Eri blinked a few times before looking at a particular spot in her room. She coulda swore she felt some kind of energy that’s similar to Momoka’s Quirk. Upon investigation, however, she found nothing there.

“Momoka-san..?” ... Maybe she got caught by Yagi before she could get through...?

@silver-strings-of-fate​ started following you!

..Hana can hear some students just around the corner of the hallway she’s in talking about her. Seems that 1-B is starting to get some recognition, but for the wrong reasons. It’s not their fault that they’ve recently gotten a 'Quirkless’ student to join them. They don’t deserve to be ridiculed because of her...

Mattie & Lulu

Mattie: [So my vibe for it, she just shows up without knowing because by this point it’s been like 2 years since attempted contact so you wouldn’t think to check like, where do they go to school, especially if Chloe swore the grandparents to secrecy vis-a-vis the teacher situation because she would, so you probably think they’re still in Switzerland, and then I think we should say that one of them is in her form and one of them has her as a teacher for either Physics or Computers and whoever we pick as the form one could see her first and if that was Dolly she could tell Lulu to try and get in with her]

Lulu: [That honestly feels the most legit to me too, I was gonna say maybe put Lulu in her form so they have to spend more time together lol but your idea makes the most sense in terms of like starting this convo, also love you not being the 1st to know since you spoke for them both in the last convo so]

Mattie: [And if you had her for both subjects, you’d still see her a lot so it’s fine, also lessons are longer than form time but you’re meant to like, talk to your form teacher if you need something so we can say that Dolly is without having to do it obvs, so then my vibe for today is she obviously took Dolly to one side and was like I don’t know how this happened but I’ll follow your lead like if you want to swap forms you can but also you can stay and we don’t have to make a big deal of it. Mattie would have to let the School know like they’re my half-sisters btw, didn’t know they were here, but we had kids who were taught by their literal mums so it’s not like she has to leave or they have to move classes, just as long as you aren’t hiding it ‘cos that’d be weird on her part, so maybe we can say Lulu didn’t have either lesson today so we can do this like Dolly has just told her but Mattie hasn’t had enough time or reason to come find her in person?]

Lulu: [That’s so clever boo, such an excellent way to get around having to RP with yourself and yeah she could totally be taught by her for both lessons so that is probably more time actually like you said]

Mattie: [Okay so our vibe for form is it’s about 30 mins at the start of the day, after breakfast for boarders and before lessons, and there are 4 girls from each year in the form (year 7-13) so the energy is very look after the little ones and go to the older kids for advice and help, as well as your form teacher being your go-to teacher for things you need that aren’t related to your subjects, you probably also have a matron-esque person for things related to boarding; Definitely doing houses also and you get points for good behaviour, academic achievement and clubs and sporting, can also be taken away for poor behaviour and performance, Dolly and Lulu are in the same house just not form. HOUSE TEA, after research it seems like forms and houses are separated by boarding and day students as well as sex, so only boarding girls in your form/house, you literally live with your house if you board, it’s about 60 girls, and there is the housemistress (and her whole fam and dog lmao) a matron, the tutors of the forms in said house and then head girl as well as 6th form girls being prefects, absolutely can think of what the housemistress, matron, head girl and other tutors who live in are like; MORE TEA, school starts 8:25, chapel, assembly or form time, four lessons before lunch, after lunch from about 4:00, 2 clubs a day, sports, drama, art etc until 6:00, final reg ‘til 6:15, then there’s the ‘cultural hour’ til 7:15, prep aka homework for AT LEAST an hour after dinner assumedly, Saturday is chapel, three lessons, lunch, then sports all afternoon depending how much sports you do, there are like 150 clubs so get at it]

Lulu: [NGL love this, I’d be fuming if my mum worked there and I had to live there too but like such a fun vibe for us and it makes sense that you’re gonna end up getting close to Mattie like it or not]

Lulu: [okay so Lulu studies Physics and Computer Science with Mattie and then Mathematics makes sense to go with that]

Mattie: [Dolly Drama & Theatre Studies, German & Religious Studies]

Lulu: [Okay so Lulu’s clubs cos you have to do a sport I’m gonna pick Tennis as a throwback to your old school, Drama as I’ve mentioned in this convo, Model UN likewise as a throwback, Chess cos we love it and that Curie Society thing where they just chat about scientific discoveries and D of E]

Mattie: [Dolly’s clubs are Drama, Archery, Running Club, Chapel Choir, Cross Country & Swimming, will do Creative & Literary Society when we are in a better place but not like right away]

Mattie: [I think we can start this convo now we have an idea]

Lulu: Dolly told me you’re her form tutor… that’s unexpected

Lulu: how long is your placement here?

Mattie: Yes, very

Mattie: I had zero idea you two weren’t still in Switzerland

Mattie: Believe me when I say if I planned to initiate contact between us again, I would have gone for a more direct, far less convoluted route to do so

Mattie: The placement is 8 weeks, I’ve had to let the head know and I was going to come find you to see how you wanted to proceed

Mattie: Dolly was happy enough to stay in my form and not make a big deal about it, her words, obviously this is a shock for us all and I’m not going to minimize that for my own gain

Mattie: But I am taking you for Physics and Computer Studies, so you would actually be seeing more of me than Dolly, so that’s… a thing

Mattie: There is another Computer Science class in your year but Physics is already a small class with just me… I could see if there’s a possibility for a Physics teacher from one of the other years to swap with me, if that’s what you would like

Lulu: Of course you wouldn’t be aware of our move, and of course Dolly doesn’t want to make a big deal of you being here now that we are, similarly I’m not going to make a fuss about you teaching me, that’s all you’re supposed to do, professionalism is also a… thing and 8 weeks is bound to absolutely fly by

Mattie: If you’re sure, Lulu, then that’s absolutely how I am happy to proceed too

Mattie: It really isn’t long, in the grand scheme of things

Mattie: You aren’t obligated to share any more than you would with any other teacher, but I have to ask why the move?

Mattie: You seemed to really love that place

Mattie: Even though it seems very impressive here too

Mattie: I just hope you’re okay, is really all I’m trying to say with that question

Lulu: There’s no big secret, it was just time for a change, which is how you jolly well may feel after you’ve spent 2 months here 😅

Mattie: Oh no, you aren’t enjoying it here? Or just a bit of a culture shock

Mattie: It was for me too, my last placement was an inner-city comp

Mattie: but it’s different being this side of the student-teacher divide regardless, that’s for sure

Lulu: I’m not a student you have to try to find common ground with, you aren’t my form tutor

Mattie: How are you getting on with yours? She’s the Drama teacher, right, funny how that worked out

Lulu: Marvellously, it’s been one of my extracurriculars since year 7

Mattie: That’s great, and you get to spend time with your sister, now you don’t have your lessons together

Lulu: Yeah, Religious Studies isn’t my thing

Mattie: I can’t say it’s mine either 😅

Mattie: Also the man who teaches that scares me a bit but 🤫 I’m sure he looks more off-putting than he actually is

Lulu: It’s his 🐛 brows but your first impression and instincts are spot on too, he’s v intense

Mattie: I’ll break the ice by asking him to come get them threaded, that’s a great idea

Lulu: I’m extremely clever and that was a elaborate ploy to prove every idea I have is A* to you as my new teacher and earn house points as I’m so devoted

Mattie: I sadly think I know how the head would feel about merit points for beauty reccs but admire the dedication, that’s definitely a core value they want to promote here so

Mattie: Not not worth some ++

Lulu: It’d be beastly not to pass the vibe check after all this time, the most relief ever that I’ve worked out this place’s core values

Mattie: I think I still have the introductory pamphlet, should you ever need a refresher

Mattie: Core values, Latin Motto, the lot…

Lulu: [Whatever the school Latin motto is cos I tried to make a sassy one up but was cockblocked] I’m fine, but thanks

Mattie: Impressive

Mattie: Okay, I will see you in class tomorrow

Mattie: Potentially around the house before then but I’ll do my best to give you both space

Lulu: It’s called making an effort, which you’ll see me do in class too

Lulu: okay but don’t give us a lot of space or everyone’ll think we’re in some huge bind over you and like Dolly and I have both said, it’s not that big of a deal

Mattie: Pleased to hear it

Mattie: Understood

Mattie: I more meant it as a warning that I too room there so you might see me around, but I won’t make a point of showing up in your dorm

Lulu: I don’t honestly know what makes you think I would need a warning but thanks again anyway

Mattie: I’m not trying to make your transition here any harder than it needs to be

Lulu: You’d have to be a horrific teacher to make that sizeable of an impact, we’re both settled, the newbie here is you

Mattie: Well that remains to be seen

Mattie: QTS will either be achieved by the end of this or not

Mattie: It’s a lot bigger than your last, your house has as many pupils as the entirety of Surval did, that’s a big change

Lulu: So was co-ed and day students, note my past tense though

Mattie: Right, and your subjects at A-Level are, sadly, pretty boy heavy

Mattie: You’ve got it all worked out though, I’ll be sure to ask for help if I get stuck

Lulu: Not something I expected to have to deal with, pre-fresh start, but I don’t have to teach them, only get on with my own work

Lulu: yeah, I could give an A* tour

Mattie: I’d call you lucky if I didn’t know personally that the workload is going to be intense

Mattie: but I’ve seen your grades so I’m not worried for you, you’ve got this

Mattie: I might take you up on that offer, though if you can secure one of the cute dogs I see running about, that turns might into a definite

Lulu: 😊

Lulu: Oh, this is the moment to let you know Skipper loves me

Mattie: I think Skipper nearly ran me down this morning

Mattie: assuming he’s the GIANT one that rarely listens to his owner 🤭

Lulu: He is 🥰💖 but he doesn’t realise 😆

Mattie: The best kind of dog 😌 It’s so cute

Lulu: My biggest soft spot is for little dogs who think they’re VIP as in v important humans, but we have one of those at home, for the best of both worlds

Mattie: Okay, yes, that’s a mood too

Mattie: What’s his name?

Mattie: Being currently without any pet I need all the surrogates, obviously

Lulu: Monty

Lulu: [show her a picture of him obvs]

Mattie: Oh, he’s a doll 😍

Mattie: a definite plus for being in England is you can go visit him more often

Lulu: Not really, I’m still boarding

Mattie: The 6-day schedule is intense

Mattie: I can see the benefits though, as long as the child is here because they want to learn, and not because their parent paid for an extra intensive education just because it’s the ‘best’

Lulu: Both can be true and mostly seem like they are here

Mattie: By your age, if it wasn’t suiting, you wouldn’t have made it, I don’t think

Mattie: At least you have Sundays

Lulu: You’ve seen my grades, who could fake making it that hard?

Mattie: I wasn’t accusing you of not being capable, not at all, sorry that wasn’t clear, just musing aloud that the people who aren’t suited to this model won’t make it past IGCSEs to A-levels

Mattie: but that kind of thing would fall under unprofessional, I imagine so let’s pretend I didn’t say anything

Lulu: It’d only be unprofessional if you shared who you think shouldn’t be here, which I’ll totally pretend you didn’t say after 🤭

Mattie: 😅😶 I’ll pretend I didn’t hear that and slip the list under your door when I’ve made it

Lulu: 🤫 to not turn you against an absolutely ridiculously high percentage of both your classes before you’ve taught them

Mattie: Definitely not the aim of my placement 😰

Mattie: Although someone has to be the teacher nobody likes, right?

Lulu: You could try that approach, but unless this tête-à-tête happening is what’s faked, I can’t see you making it work for 8 weeks

Mattie: Thanks, that’s almost encouraging 😌😜

Mattie: Over the initial shock, it’s good to see you both doing well here

Mattie: And if you do happen to need anything, you can let me know

Lulu: You’re almost my teacher, calling you a bitch wouldn’t get us off on the right foot

Mattie: I don’t think I can downgrade you for that, but no, I see that

Mattie: Professionalism works both ways, as it were

Lulu: And I could need an extension at any time, my lab partner is a perfect dunce who should be on your reject list 😓 I’d be pretty gassed if you would actually re-assign us, do you have that much power? 🤔

Mattie: It’s a possibility

Mattie: I like to switch it up anyway, you’re such a small group, it stops it getting clique-y, so you can all work together and swap around whilst I’m your teacher

Mattie: When you get a permanent teacher after I leave, they might see it differently but they’ve all been enthusiastic about my ideas thus far, though I just got here

Lulu: After you leave is after you leave, I feel seedy now and look like 💀 if you want to do anything about it

Mattie: What’s the problem with him, beside the dunce thing we’ve already covered?

Lulu: Isn’t that enough bad luck? I’m doing everything by myself while he’s high fiving his friends for getting partnered with me, like some incel

Mattie: Right

Mattie: Let me see it for myself and then perhaps I can do something about it, if it is that blatant

Mattie: You don’t need the teacher’s pet rep any more than I need accusations of baseless favouritism just because we’re related

Mattie: I believe you, but I’ll deal with it in class and in my capacity as your teacher and his, not like this, yeah

Lulu: I’m letting you know what I need, which is what you just told me to do

Mattie: Okay, I’ve heard you, I just want to make sure you understand that if you come to me with things related to class, then they’ll be dealt with in the proper channels

Lulu: 😬 sorry if you got the impression I’d come to you with anything unrelated to class, we’re not there

Mattie: You didn’t, I simply offered

Lulu: Grandma will be buzzing

Mattie: I’m not doing it to score points, or make a statement

Mattie: and undoubtedly you won’t come to me but I’m going to offer in case you need to, and because that’s what feels right to me to do, that’s it

Mattie: No hidden agenda

Lulu: Offer it to Dolly, that’s your job

Mattie: I have, Lulu

Mattie: Don’t worry

Lulu: Meaning?

Lulu: my sister is fine, I don’t have to worry about her

Mattie: Meaning just that

Mattie: I have a pastoral role as well as an educational

Mattie: If any pupil in my form needs help, they’ll receive it

Lulu: She doesn’t

Mattie: Glad to hear it

Lulu: You’ll have an easy time of it from both of us

Mattie: As long as you’re having a good time of it too, that works perfectly for me

Lulu: Il n’y a pas le feu au lac, as my previous mistresses were devoted to saying

Mattie: My French is limited to being able to order dinner with minimal side-eye from the waiters

Mattie: but I’ll take your very pretty words for it

Lulu: Whoops, I shouldn't have assumed, what language did you do?

Mattie: Mandarin, which was a huge plus on my application, with the college in Malaysia and the Mandarin course they do here

Lulu: Wow, how difficult is it? I’d love to have learned

Mattie: It is challenging, but a fun one I’d say

Mattie: It’s a shame they only have the one teacher, so they can’t make it a club too, they’d be run ragged

Mattie: I could teach you the 101 basics, I’m confident enough to do that much

Lulu: You didn’t want to be accused of favouritism and I don’t want to make an ass of myself

Lulu: I’ll have to move there and hope it’s not yonks before the immersion and fluency, I’ve only ever learnt a language that way, I don’t know if even the basics are doable otherwise 😟

Mattie: Well that’s certainly the best way to learn but not the only

Mattie: I wish I was here longer so I could commit to starting a club for the pupils like you who are interested but it wasn’t viable to pick as an A-Level

Lulu: I’ll download an app or something, delete it if it’s too embarrassing

Mattie: I’ll check in to see how you’re finding it

Mattie: You do have a wealth of extra-curriculars, you have zero reason to be embarrassed

Lulu: Only one of those is new and I get to talk in English on subjects I’m never out of my depth with, so yeah, that’s a reason

Lulu: I don’t have time to pick up Chinese Chess either 😭 maybe I can if I do move there

Mattie: The world is seriously going to be your oyster, you can do whatever you want to do, wherever you want to be

Lulu: Is that, like, your teacher catchphrase? 😅 totes inspirational

Mattie: I’ll get a poster made ASAP then 😏

Lulu: Do you need me to draw you a map to art first?

Mattie: Oh, absolutely

Lulu: [do draw her a little map of the key places in the school even though it’d obvs be really simple which might make it more confusing than the actual map cos we’re missing stuff out]

Mattie: [when you didn’t think she would and you’re lowkey touched lmao]

Mattie: That’s perfect, I should actually show up on time for our lesson tomorrow now, thanks for that

Lulu: I draw the line at teaching myself [a thing from both subjects she’s struggling with or doesn’t like lol] as well as Mandarin

Mattie: Now that we can 100% get down before my placement is up, that I can guarantee 😊

Lulu: so you’ve guaranteed yourself a thrilled student quote for the poster

Mattie: Everything’s coming up me 🙌🙌

Lulu: 🤞🏻 you keep that energy going tomorrow

Mattie: I’m not going to oversell it to you, but I do know what I’m doing, in terms of having me as your teacher, I don’t think you’re going to be disappointed

Lulu: They wouldn’t have you here as a teacher if that was your vibe, overselling is honestly closer to what they’re about, you must be worthy of 🙌🏻

Mattie: Bragging is never my vibe but I got the placement here for a reason, and I’m glad I did, so I won’t be wasting the opportunity

Mattie: I went to a good school, but the boarding lifestyle is something I’ve never experienced

Lulu: And I’ve never not, how odd, but you won’t have to experience it that hard as a teacher, they don’t even make you share or suffer through the indignity of inspections

Mattie: My room is a mess of notes and first-day outfits currently so that is definitely a good thing 😬😅

Lulu: The second-day outfit is much less pressure, especially in a class that’s v boy heavy

Mattie: Is that a promise you won’t judge me? 😏

Lulu: I’d come off worse, this uniform is not a mood, they never are

Mattie: At least there’s no boater, the full fantasy

Lulu: It’d add some interest, at least, to how plain everything has to be

Mattie: Thank Goodness for Sundays, you can express yourself then

Lulu: Are you promising not to judge me back? Awww! We’ve got a pact happening

Mattie: As long as there are no sacrifices or blood oaths I’d say that’s above board

Lulu: Sunday’s the chapel’s busiest day and without an altar what are we doing? 😬 Bad luck

Mattie: I do keep forgetting we’re CoE, I’ll have to carve that into the nearest tree or whatever so I don’t arouse suspicion with any 🔮ness

Lulu: Or 🤔 you could use the ⛪️🙏🏻 time to mentally outfit plan for the week if you’re for real awfully nervous, null and voiding the demand for the pact and witch vibes at all

Mattie: You’re very sensible

Mattie: though lesson planning is ultimately the best use of my time, if the big man upstairs is cool with that

Lulu: I use mine for [idk whatever maths or physics shit she could do in her head] and I’m blessed to have not been struck down yet

Mattie: 😅 Well I approve even if the jury is out with the 😇😇s

Lulu: Thanks

Lulu: did Grandpa teach you to play chess too? I need to practice

Mattie: He did, clearly very serious about passing on his chess knowledge 😌

Lulu: Relatable honestly if he just got sick of telling Grandma how the horse and castle move over and over for years 🙄 I tried to teach this boy once and never again

Mattie: Poor Grandma 🤭🤦‍♀️ Is that a boy from home?

Lulu: Golly, if that was how I spent my hols 🙈 No, his mother was a music mistress at our old school

Lulu: he tried but didn’t manage to teach me guitar either

Mattie: Oh, that makes a lot more sense

Mattie: I know the sort

Mattie: Everyone here seems to have little kids or grown-up kids right now, some of the little ones are super cute

Lulu: What sort?

Mattie: The walking-talking Netflix teen heartthrob type

Lulu: Yeah, no, you don’t know him, or me

Mattie: I didn’t mean anything by it

Lulu: And I meant what I said, I’m being welcoming and chill as it’s your first day, but you don’t know me like that

Mattie: Okay, I apologize

Lulu: It’s fine, I’ll see you tonight, not to ruin the surprise but there are other welcoming first day dorm traditions I have to be there for

Mattie: Oh, okay, cool

Mattie: When you want to practice Chess, let me know, we can do it after prep time

Lulu: Okay 👋🏻 for now

[ask-the-crimson-king]

I really enjoy your work, any tip for a newbie just starting out the world of roleplay in Tumblr?

[First of all,

Thank you! 

Second of all, I myself am pretty new to Tumblr and I don’t quite know all the ins-and-outs of it. For example, formatting different fonts or how to get themes to work. But those are more for fancy stuff than actual rp.

If you want tips on roleplaying aspects, I have a few as someone who has been doing this for a few years:

(under a cut in order to save room on the feed)

- If you’re just starting out, your writing is not going to be perfect, and this is okay. Looking back at the stuff I wrote in 2014 or 2015 or even early last year makes me cringe a little [okay a lot in the case of the 2014 stuff]. My writing now is still far from perfect, but there has been progression. Don’t beat yourself up if you cannot immediately churn out passages befitting of published novels.

- Try to reach out in your specific roleplaying community. This can be done by contacting certain accounts and asking if they can promote you, following a lot of people within that community, etc. You can also make an introductory post, showing off a bit of your writing style and a bit about your character and a bit about you, the person beyond the screen. Remember to tag it, too.

- Do not stress out about threads and replies. People (most of them, unless you have come across an asscravat, in which case I am sorry) will understand if you need a while with replies. Also, do not be afraid to say you’re disinterested in a thread or be afraid to poke someone after a while and say ‘hey, did you see my reply’? If some sort of event has come up that may mean an extended absence or that you’re merely burnt out, you can make a quick post about it or merely convey that to your respective partners.

- Cut your threads. This means deleting the reblogs every once in a while when you are reblogging a thread. That way, the entire dash is not taken up by your long threads. What is a good thread length? I would say that depends on replies. If you are on desktop, I usually cut when the scroll bar is this big:

Occasionally I may forget to do so when replying, but that is what editing posts is for. 

- If you are going to reblog an ask meme and it is not from an ask meme blog, leave a meme before you reblog. This is more of a courtesy thing than a rule. 

- Try to avoid one or two word replies. Again, your writing may not be the best in the beginning, but try to describe what your character may be doing or thinking. And remember, do your best to show and not tell. This is also kind of a courtesy thing, especially if you are given something akin to a paragraph or two. My rule of thumb as a ‘veteran’ is to try and keep up the same line length, or if I cannot, I make sure I have enough content to keep the thread going unless it is ready to conclude. 

These are just a handful of things I’ve picked up here and elsewhere, I’m sure there are more comprehensive lists/guides out there if you need them. If anyone else has better advice or a better guide, go ahead and leave it in the notes.]

[sunevial]

While I will get to the small backlog of writing prompts I have yet to get to eventually, I’m feeling up to telling a different story involving the Followers. Today, you’re getting the origin story.

Not the characters, oh no, this is the story of how this shit show came together into something coherent. Buckle up, this is gonna be a long one.

As some of you may know, the Followers are each loosely based around and upon eight members of patrons on the Internet Remix Patreon server. I happen to only truly ‘own’ Witch; every other character involved belongs to the person that originally came up with them. If you didn’t happen to know this, here’s a quick rundown of everyone involved:

Me (Sunev or Meg): Witch

@hewhowalksbehind (Onyx): Lieutenant

@missvulpix212 (Missfoxx): Old Priestess

@arahul-abyssia (Arahul): Advisor

@archerowl6 (Archer): Huntress

@joy-in-opera (Carl): Bookkeer

@kylethewarrior (Kyle): Part Timer

CollectorOfMyst (Myst): Young Priest 

Now, this was right around when Internet Remix was announcing Camp Streamix and all of us on the Patreon server were choosing teams. A couple of us immediately rallied around Kristen and Team Murder, each for our own reasons (Onyx in solidarity for also living in the void state, Missfoxx given her longstanding friendship with Kristen, me for the storytelling and a long running joke that I was Kristen’s witch, Arahul for the intrigue, and Archer for the horror elements). 

Not long after this, we all got to joking that as the patrons, we were like Kristen’s followers in a way. I was the first one to really create a ‘persona’ as a follower of team murder, someone who vaguely resembled me and was dressed in red (a precursor to Witch’s final design). Given that I was already ‘the witch’ in another long since dead RP thing with some of my friends, I began to take the title of The Witch as a joke. Not long after, those of already committed to Team Murder all began discussing what we would each be if we had to put a role to what each of us were. 

Missfoxx was the older priest of the group, given that she had the longest relationship with Kristen.

Onyx was the right hand, given the two of them were both ‘void denizens’ and he already had jokingly begin to call Kristen ‘captain’ once he declared Team Murder.

Arahul was more of an advising figure, given that most of us consider him especially wise for his age.

Archer, perhaps a bit more on the nose, would obviously be a hunter of sorts given her name, the executioner as you will.

Along the way, we began joking that we needed a younger priest to complement the older, and jokingly said that we could just ‘steal’ Myst away if we really needed to. 

And slowly, we began constructing characters. 

After a little of this brainstorming and realizing that I happened to be really good at putting together something out of sparse details, I made the decision to go everyone and ask “Hey, I have this idea for a story, mind if I piece some things together and try and make this more coherent?” 

One by one, they each said yes, giving me little details on clothing and background, but ultimately leaving a lot of the larger stuff to me. So I took the threads all my friends gave me, thought about what I could do with it, and began to weave.

The Followers were born out of that weaving, a set of demi-gods and ‘angels by any other name’ who loyally serve the Murder God.

As I was writing, I realized with my own character, the Witch, matched perfectly to the witch role within the DMP game, and so that thread was woven into the story thread. 

Lieutenant and Old Priestess became more than their titles; they were now the two werewolves, partners in crime, and influential beyond belief. 

Advisor became the seer, able to peek into people’s minds and into the future. 

Huntress became the gunslinger, searching for justice and agency. 

Young Priest became the gardener, a speck of flavor text and light in a dark world. 

I was never expecting this little fan project to become as popular as it did, but it absolutely exploded among the people who were involved and among others in the Patreon server. People encouraged me to write more, and once I realized just how far this silly little project had reached, I decided to start plan out a small sequel project that would bring in some elements I had hinted in the original introductory work.

During this continual worldbuilding, things slowly began expanding out of that small, initial circle. Not long after, we brought Carl into the mix, as she was jokingly called the ‘bookkeeper’ given that she always fills up the out of context quotes chat and had introduced her own sort of ‘follower’ character not connected to the work I had done. Thus the Bookkeeper was born, representing the minion role and the group’s scribe

Kyle’s character followed soon after, though his was on a technicality. Because he wasn’t officially really any team with his penchant of donating to whichever team he felt like, we said that any character of his would just be there part time. Thus the Part Timer was born, representing the Doctor role and the group’s technology expert and partial spy.

With that, we had eight followers, which was all I could both reasonably write, and perhaps symbolically, represented the eight legs of a spider (given the large theme of webbing and the like). I promised to include these two new characters into the sequel series and give them their own time to shine, along with learning more about the current cast. 

With all these characters finally listed out, there was only one last thing to do. Give them their proper titles and honorifics fitting of the original five and the three that wandered in.

The Black Stars in the sky 

Lieutenant (or the Right Hand): General of the Eldritch

Old Priestess: General of the Tempest

Witch: General of the Arcane

Advisor: General of the Unknown

Huntress: General of the Wilds

The Blazing Comets burning past

Bookkeeper: Admiral of the Scroll

Part Timer (or Doctor): Admiral of the Syringe

Young Priest: Admiral of the Canvas

There was quite a bit more behinds the scenes work involved with this journey, of course, and I could never have done this without the help of all of my friends who helped me build this world, bring it to live, and paint it in beautiful colors. And, of course, it wouldn’t be where it is today without all the people who read it and told me ‘I want to see more of this’.

So, believe me when I give my sincere thanks to you all for helping me to get this far.

And as for when the next update is coming? I can’t promise anything precise.

But something else?

Give me a week or two :3

RP Information

This is an roleplay/ask blog for Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke both. These characters have a life of their own. I rp them a thousand different ways (individually, together, as a couple, just friends, enemies, etc.), and I’m always open to new ideas! I don’t mind interacting with identical characters. See my wishlist items HERE :3

I track the tag kyuuzuchiha, but it’s better to contact me directly if I’m not responsive to something because tbh I rarely check the tag I answer to Boo-mun or just Boo. You can also frequently find me on:    -- xkaekox (Fandomless OC)    -- flippinpip (Fantasy OC)    -- thebubbledome (Suigetsu of Naruto)    -- utaofthekokoro (Nezumi of No. 6)

My time zone is EST (UTC -5) I live in the Eastern United States of North America.

Semi-Active - I want my muses to have all the fun (and occasionally be tortured too), but life sometimes gets in the way. I also tend to gravitate toward interacting with mutuals, I’m open to giving anyone a chance as long as I feel comfortable and available.

Crossover & OC friendly! I’m happy to interact with all kinds of characters. I especially love OCs~

Muti-verse - Modern AUs, Full Canon, Canon AUs, Others by request. I will do many types of divergences and time periods. I’m not familiar with the next generation, and I have no interest in learning canon events in that timeline. AUs are my game when it comes to that!

Multi-ship - Open to any pairing as well as non-romantic relationships! The most important thing is that the muses feel the vibe.

Adults Only - There may occasionally be explicit content on this blog. Spicy themes will rarely happen, but other types of adult content will certainly be present. Since this is an adult-oriented party, I do not feel comfortable interacting with muns who are minors.

Discord is where I tend to rp explicit content, and many other things as well. Feel free to ask me about that rp option as well!

Let’s Not Call These Rules, Just My Preferences

Please don’t force my muses to do anything, or else I’ll become uninterested really quickly. Godmodding sucks for everyone.

Please do not throw something with explicit content at me unless we chat about it. I define explicit content to include nudity, spicy acts, or extra spicy language. I’m (usually) down to play with that, but I may want to move it to a more private platform like discord or decline entirely. Explicit content will always be under a Read More cut with warnings like “under cut for spicy content” or “under cut because explicit”.

I am in my late 20s and rarely feel comfortable interacting with muns who are minors. I will not knowingly rp spicy content with any mun who is not over 18. I also refuse to rp spicy content between muses that are under 18. If you deceive me, I will block you immediately.

The ask and submissions boxes are open to all, but we will trash hate mail unless it’s in-character from your muse. Feel free to use any of these STARTERS or MEMES at any time! Just be sure to send the full prompt with any symbols~

My IMs are set to mutuals only, but feel free to send me ooc messages through my ask box! Chat with me so we can plot, or tossing my muse(s) an ask meme/starter is a good way to introduce as well. Maybe even drop an introductory gift in my submissions box. We’re here for it all!

If you don’t want us to post a submission or answer an ask or rp publicly, then please feel free to ask us to answer privately or just keep it to ourselves. I’m on discord too for added privacy.

I don’t always follow back. Even if I don’t, you’re still welcome to reach out to me.

About Boo-mun

I am a he. I align with he/him/his if you choose to use pronouns at all. Just referring to me as Boo is fine too. Most people just call me Boo.

I sometimes get overwhelmed. I lead a demanding life, so sometimes it takes me long periods of time to get replies out. I will announce dropped threads, but feel free to ask about a thread if you aren’t sure of its status due to me taking a long time.

Sometimes I choose favorites and reply to those exclusively for a bit because that’s all I have a muse for. That selectivity will not last forever, but please feel free to approach me about it if you’re feeling left out!

I will happily recommend blogs for you or introduce you to bloggers I know, but promos are rare around these parts.

I don’t have triggers, but I am very sensitive to those that do. Don’t be afraid to just ask me to start tagging something for you.

Main reasons I unfollow: - Too much political talk for my taste - Too much hate on ships for my taste - Not mutuals for more than a few months - Being inactive for a couple of years - Perceived malicious intent - Lying about your age - Never interacting with each other - You’re straight-up rude

“Ah, Senpai.” Visiting the 3rd years’ dormitories, Yuu ended up finding Amajiki. Her main target was supposed to be Hadou, hoping to see if she could perhaps intern with Ryukyu despite her counterpart already taking her figurative place. Doing nothing but study here in UA could only do so much for her. She needed more on-field experience, too, after all, even if it meant being around her alternate in the process.

Yuu waved her hand at him, approaching with a curious look. “I couldn’t find Hadou-senpai or Togata-senpai anywhere... Actually, a lot of the 3rd-years aren’t around from what I see. Is something going on?”

     Every once in a while, Midoriya would notice how this one guy in particular would often keep to himself, even around other students that were literally right next to him. Actually, it.. looked more like he just wasn’t being noticed by anyone at all. He’s.. pretty sure he wasn’t catching glimpses of a ghost here. At least, he.. really hoped that was the case... But, that’s besides the point. What’s more concerning was how lonesome it felt just seeing the guy there. It sort of reminded him of himself, really, back when he tried avoiding as much attention brought onto himself as possible...      “Uhm, hey there...!” Well, hopefully this student wasn’t more antisocial than asocial. Somehow, he just had this feeling that the poor guy was experiencing a similar sense of loneliness that he knew himself.

     “I, uh-- couldn’t help but notice you all by yourself here. I’m Midoriya Izuku, what’s your name?”

@kibouhero​ started following you!

Eri’s looking a little down. Her training sessions with using her Quirk haven’t been going very smoothly lately. Trying to get it to stop had grown more difficult, probably because of how much it’s grown back up to this point, and because of this, she’s become rather discouraged in trying any more. 

Poor girl felt too ashamed to look Deku in the eyes. He’s the one she told that she’d try harder, after all. Would he be disappointed in her...?

@quirkless-wonder​ started following you!

Uchiake heard that 1-A had a Quirkless student, but she never expected to see him around these late-night hours. He could get in trouble if one of the patrolling robots caught him.

..Then again, the same could probably be said for herself, what with her just sitting there on 1-B’s dormitory rooftop.

"--Ah--"

It's him. Eri's most trusted hero. And to think they'd ever cross paths again after that incident with the little girl. Normally, Kei would think up a more clever way to address unexpected reunions with a person he's crossed paths with before...

... Yet, instead, nothing seemed to come to mind right at this very moment. Kei was so busy going through his grocery list that he didn't even realize the other was there until the both of them reached for the same apple. Talk about awkward. Midoriya hopefully won't make a scene, right? Things have already died down enough for him to safely walk around in public again, and he's pretty sure the kid knew that he wasn't that much of a threat when there's no need for it, but...

anon asked:

((I've been roleplaying for a while now, but I've never done it on a website like tumblr. I just started my own blog for a new kid but i have no idea how to approach sending messages, interacting, etc because of all the different threads and memes. any tips? Sorry in advance if this is bothering you in anyway.))

(Since I just posted about not being able to respond to asks the traditional way through a sideblog, my first and biggest tip would be... make a separate account for every RP character. So I hope you’ve done that lol. If not, I guess this blog is evidence that it’s still doable, just kind of a pain to work with due to the limitations a sideblog provides. 

Other than that, your best bet is honestly to start following the blogs you’d like to interact with and keep a lookout for starter calls and RP memes that would fit your desired form of roleplaying. Those can be really great for introductory interactions. Just make sure to read other people’s rules before contacting them. I’d probably also post a couple of memes on your own blog to let people know they can also freely contact you and then maybe take a trip through the south park RP tag and see if they’re still active directories you can be part of (I haven’t done this, but I think some of them are still active).

Idk if this was of any help, but I hope so. RP’ing on tumblr can be a little intimidating at first but the community here is still pretty strong in my fairly short and limited experience with the SP fandom.)

Possibly making a new RP blog? Follow this tutorial!

Hello! Have you been possibly wanting to start a new RP blog, but have never done so before? Well you’re in luck! I’m here to show you the ropes on creating your very own RP blog! I will be putting it under a read more, since this post will indeed be long!

Let’s begin!

First off, I will go over the necessities of an RP blog. You are required to have these in order to launch your RP blog into effect.

1.   URL

Before you even make the blog, coming up with a URL can be rather tough. If the character you are RPing as doesn’t have their name as a URL claimed yet, claim it. Having a Canon URL for an RP blog can be very useful with getting out there, especially if of a well-known franchise, because it grabs the attention of other RPers. Even if your character is original, try to claim their name if possible.

Some alternatives if this doesn’t work: Make your URL a brief description of them. Some examples, such as Mario from the “Mario Bros.” franchise could be named “redplumber”. Just experiment until you find one that sounds well enough and can describe your character.

Some side notes:

If you are multimuse, a good suggestion is their name as a group. For example, continuing with the “Mario Bros.” franchise, you could be “mushroomkingdomkeepers”, or “bowsersminions”.

Some people tend to put “c”s and “x”s in placement of vowels in URLs if the URL they want is already claimed. So, if “redplumber” was taken, you could be “redplumbxr”.

Despite all of the examples shown, you can have dashes in your URL. “red-plumber” can also work.

2.       About/Rules page.

There is a 99% chance you won’t get anybody to do threads with you if you don’t have one of these. (Or both, depending on the strictness of people). The about page can describe you, the mun, alongside with your muse. Remember, your AU, your own muse will be different despite canons. Be sure to list off any nicknames, fears, likes, dislikes, etc. for your character.

A good source to fill out for your muse to put in your about page: http://slytherinsheiress.deviantart.com/art/Very-Very-Basic-Character-Sheet-340098566

Another good thing to put in your about page is what type of style you RP in. There’s many different styles of RPing. These can include: One line, a few sentences, paragraph, multi-paragraph, novella. Your styles will vary, so be honest and put the one you most normally do.

Most script-styled RP blogs will use either One line or a few sentences, while story-styled RP blogs will stick to paragraph/multi-paragraph responses. Rarely will you find a novella style RPer, however, they tend to be very high quality.

As for your rules page, don’t be afraid to list off things that make you uncomfortable. People need to know the boundaries they need to respect when RPing with you. If you don’t say a thing about them, then chances are it can possibly happen.

Some really good ideas to put in your rules:

Specify if your muse(s) is interested in getting into a romantic/sexual relationship Specify if you’ll do NSFW RPs. Specify what your requirements are for RPing with someone (Rules page, types of replies, possibly.) Be sure to try your best and be descriptive. Just don’t be too much, or you can come off intimidating.

Side notes: For most people, their RP style is somewhere around paragraph and multi-paragraph, and they will normally be okay with multisentence replies. Rarely will you find multi-paragraph RPers that tolerate one-line replies.

3.       Introductory post.

As for your introductory post, this is the first thing most people will see off of you, and probably your only post that will get reblogged by multiple people. You want to make sure that it’s appealing. Most formats of RP blogs tend to have this style for their introductory post:

(Picture of their muse(s))

(Brief description of muse(s), or quote(s) that describe muse(s))

(Describing the blog you are running, basically, keeping the “Mario Bros” example: “RP Blog for Mario from Super Mario Bros.”

(links to their Rules/About/Ask pages)

Side notes: Pictures mostly stay as edited versions of canon pictures, if said character is canon.

Pictures will say what type of RP blog you run aswell.

There are mainly 4 types of RP blogs you can run. Well, technically 3.

Not Selective: You are willing to RP with literally anyone that goes into your inbox. And you mean anyone. This includes crossovers from fandoms that you may not be familiar with. Any style of RPing would be permitted.

Semi-Selective: You are willing to RP with people who are within your boundaries of fandoms, maybe even some other fandoms you are familiar with. You will generally search through their blog yourself before deciding on doing threads with them.

Selective: You will pick the people you RP with, and you are very strict and closed about who you do threads with.

Private: RP blog was most likely just made to RP with a few friends, and you have a very low chance, probably less than 1%, of starting a thread with them if you aren’t already their friend.

4.       Interactions

This part will be a little short, mainly due to there being only 1 point to this. There may be people that come to you, requesting threads due to your introductory post. There are no guarantees, however. You will need to branch out and locate other RP blogs that catch your interest if you want to start threads. Not just that, but you’ll start threads with people you enjoy, as well. If you’ve been wanting to make an RP blog to try and interact with that one semi-selective person, now’s your chance to go for it! Be sure to read their rules, however, to make sure that they’re open to discussing possible threads with new people. Some people aren’t cool with getting stuff like that in their ask box/messenger.

 Now, we can move onto the optional things!

5.       Icons

Icons will be a picture of your muse doing an emote that you can place into your threads to give it more life! People will see visibly how your muse is feeling by the actions that just happened to them before, and it gives a clearer image of how they feel. Most of these you see before the muse says dialogue, and most icons end up showing different emotions. Most blogs normally have a handful of them.

WARNING: DO NOT STEAL ART AND EDIT THEM TO USE THEM AS ICONS. YOU MUST ASK THE FORMER ARTIST FOR PERMISSION TO EDIT/USE THEIR ART AS ICONS. IF THE ART IS YOUR OWN, YOU MAY PROCEED. IF THE ARTIST AGREES TO LET YOU USE THEIR ART, YOU MAY PROCEED. IF THE ARTIST SAYS “NO”, DO NOT ARGUE, AND FIND OTHER POSSIBILITIES. Artists can get distraught from people not asking permission before using their art for RP blogs. Please be sure to ask and receive permission before using it. Canon pictures are permitted.

6.       HTML

While also not a requirement, you may notice the amount of RP blogs that have smaller text in their replies than most Tumblr text posts. In order to achieve this small text size, to reduce the overall size of your thread on everyone’s dashboard, you must do the following:

-     Make a new Text Post

-     Click on the gear on the upper right corner

-     Click “text editor”, and click “HTML”

-     To get small text, type in <small> before you type your words, and </small> afterwards.

-     Be sure to type in </small> at the end of a paragraph and retype <small> upon a new paragraph.

-     Example: <small> There was always a short amount of time. </small>

 Your RP partners will appreciate this!

 7.       Trimming

If your posts aren’t trimmed, chances are, you won’t get so many threads. Be sure to trim your threads after a couple of replies, because if you don’t, your followers will have to suffer scrolling through the longest dashboard ever! I made a tutorial on trimming posts on my main blog quite a long time ago: http://ask-the-fnaf-cast.tumblr.com/post/152133123381/tutorial-on-trimming-rp-posts

I hope this post has really helped you begin setting up finding the key to unlock your door in the RP universe! Please also remember the singular most important thing in running an RP blog: HAVE FUN!
