he-he, I’ve heard that some families put their kids in front of several weapon classes and whatever weapon they choose is the one they’ll end up mailing later in life. Have you guys tried that with kallem yet?

[silverwingborn-moved]

The moment the disguised angel began walking towards her, Silver tensed. She silently begged he wasn’t coming towards her but with their gazes locked on one another, the Nephil knew he was approaching her. When he addressed her, blue-grey eyes shifted to glowing silver in alarm. Turning tail, Silver sprinted off back the way she came. Weaving past pedestrians, pushing past two. They hollered at her to watch where she was going, but the reason she glanced back was to see if he was pursuing.

This was so long ago, Yaval could remember the days before others knew what he started doing on earth. The contract he made with death to send the worst of sinners to hell early, it was something Yaval had, and always did put a lot of pride in. He thought back to when he met that Nephil...

This Angel had been quietly scanning the crowd, trying to get a read on where his target was, he had been quietly trying to get close to him, trying to see if everything on the list checked out. That was when he felt something staring at him as if holes were being burned through the back of his head. He began to glance around the crowd until his eyes stopped on hers. Why was she staring at him? What was with that look? Could it be?

There was a moment of silence before he slowly raised his brow, and he decided to approach her, maybe he was overthinking it, but no one in heaven knew he was doing this just yet.

"Hello there miss. Are you alright?" He asked as he got closer.

[a-fantastic-time]

Mistress's Manor~ (Open RP)(F/F Only)

Madam Blackmire had been widowed for some time. Her wealth and status had been sought after by many for years. It had become quite the task to shoo away so many suitors vying for both her attention and position. She was becoming tired of this game and needed something to hopefully chase away any would be contenders. So she figured by not put on a bit of a show. She had sent a special invitation to [Your Muse] to come to her manor late one evening. She figured a test would be held and see if she could not pay someone to pretend to be her fiancé for a short while maybe get some of these mongrels off of her back.

Once they walked through the large ornate doors, they would be lead to her bed chamber, where she stood in front of her large curtained bed. "Ah~ You made it~ I was beginning to wonder if you stood me up. Now, let us get down to business yes?"

[a-gilded-imprisonment]

Relationships

Dr. Veritas Ratio (canon):

Situationship

Ah, business partners. The ever-familiar term-- and yet Aventurine will never deny that he feels a pull towards the other man.

Lovers? They could be, if not for Kakavasha's charades and Veritas' pride getting in the way. For now, they're much worse. Aventurine loves to tease him-- after all, he's cute when he's flustered.

Writing partners include: @veritas-ratio-rp, @dr-golden-ratio, @dr-ratio-official

Director Topaz (canon):

Coworkers

Jelena is arguably Aventurine's favourite fellow Stoneheart. She's easily the most tolerable, in his opinion, and he has trust that she would never try to undermine him (which has noooooothing to do with the fact he has seniority over her now, of course not).

He enjoys gossiping talking with her and spoiling Numby, and would nearly call her a friend.

Writing partners include: @topaz-and-numby-official

Lady Bonajade (canon):

Coworkers

Aventurine does not feel like he owes a single thing to Miss Jade. If it were him, he would have preferred to die alone on Sigonia and finally be reunited with his family.

His job is only slavery of a different kind-- he was freed from iron shackles only to be placed into shinier, golden ones. He is wary of Jade and her judgements because he knows full well what she is capable of.

Sunday Oak (canon):

Acquaintances

Aventurine has conflicting feelings about the ex-Family head. He still can't quite wrap his head around the fact that the most handsome man in Penacony weaponized the magic of the Harmony-- the very thing he's said to stand for-- to torture someone as insignificant as him.

However, he sees and tries to understand the way the Halovian struggles, and has had a few memorable experiences by his side. He isn't planning to stop visiting his angel anytime soon-- he can't possibly eat all his baked goods alone, after all.

Writing partners include: @sunday-halovian

Robin Oak (canon):

Friends

Ever since approaching Penacony's beloved songbird regarding her brother, the two of them have clicked. Bonding over a shared love of music and anything involving Sunday, the blonde has grown quite attached to the singer.

He affectionately calls her 'little sister' and has promised to her that if he ever begins performance arts, they will collaborate on a song.

Writing partners include: @intergalactic-singer, @manganyeh

Rose Quartz (OC):

Coworkers *wink wink*

As Shilou is the most recent of the Stonehearts, Aventurine just had to make sure they remain in touch. His courteousness towards the taller man when among the workplace is genuine, and Shilou captivates the gambler as a whole, those prosthetic limbs of his serving as a surefire symbol for a past catastrophe.

Perhaps he could have the answer to his questions if he were to just maybe get close to Shilou. Developing a crush was not part of the plan.

Writing partner/creator: @heart-of-roses-and-quartz

The Ducklings (OCs):

Parent-child

Avana, Chase, Jasper and Rivera all have two things in common. They are Dr. Ratio's top students at Veritas Prime, and they've managed to worm their way into Aventurine's heart.

They seem to be convinced that there is something more going on between the gambler and the Doctor, and they just might be right. They've picked up a habit of referring to him as 'mom'-- but he's gotten used to it eventually.

Avana's his favourite.

Changing My Format

So, I have been thinking lately that I may need a change of perspective and format. Lately, I have been losing my passion for the things I do. Feeling that I have been in a rut, doing the same thing and that has been affecting how I go about my daily life.

Things have been unfulfilling and I feel I have been chasing excitement, that new thing to give me some happiness. When I have taken what I currently have for granted. Instead of trying to satisfy a craving that will never be satiated, I decided to do what I enjoy with what I have. To bring back the passion and motivation I had to begin with by doing what I enjoy. Instead of spreading myself so wide with RPs, I could let those who I wait for replies on take their time and do productive me time.

Now, how does this involve you all?

Well, with a change of perspective comes a change of format. I plan to make a multi-muse side blog to hold canon characters that I feel motivated to write for, as well as a nsfw side blog to move all my lewd writings over to that one. This goes for all my current blogs. That being said, some are gonna be deleted, merge to the multi-muse blog, or be on a indefinite hiatus.

@defectedrockstar keep

@emerald-might hiatus

@bloodyshards delete

@chozos-hunter merge

My main blog will remain, I want to keep my OCs separate and I have gotten too attached to the Hi-Fi Rush community to stop Chai. My Deku has been feeling meh lately and I know I have met wonderful people through him but I can't always keep up and I am not sure if he would fit with my other muses. Since I will be going by a theme for my multiple muses.

Miriam, I have no passion for anymore unfortunately.

When this change happens, RPs will be dropped, some moved over to the nsfw blog, and others being completely fine. For now, I am taking a break and recharging but I will eventually incorporate these changes, as well as changing my rules and how I go about writing.

If anyone has questions or comments feel free to say something.

[oakthcrn]

🚩

send me a 🚩 and i'll share my unpopular rpc opinions and hot takes. bonus points if you include a specific topic to talk about, like follower count, softblocking, graphics, etc.

Accepting // @lcafman

So this is going to be a bit of a hottake but if you have a mutual you are writing with via Tumblr or discord ans you suddenly stop...communicate with your writing partner.

Now I understand that life happens and muses die but a heads up would be nice. This has happened to me before, people will stop rping / talking to me and it makes me feel that I'm not worth any time.

Just a quick " hey I don't feel like rping right now." Or whatever it is, it don't have to be a detailed report why you can't or do want to write. Just be honest.

Now I feel like we are all guilty of this and I am not perfect, but I am trying to be communicative. Bc if you don't at least say something negative thoughts begin to fester. Thoughts of inadequacy is a plague to writing so I try to be more committed to being more active in talking to my partners ooc.

But if it's been over a month and I sent you several messages and I get the bare minimum back I'm gonna assume you're no longer interested. When that happens I lose any desire to rp. I am gonna be chasing after rp partners who aren't interested. Just be honest, you ain't gonna hurt my feelings I promise you.

[natjennie]

rumble road is so underrated i feel like we dont talk about it enough and how fuckign in character everything is immediately. the dope combat of a car chase. adaine's first identify. riz "I think you should pull over" fig "yeah, I'll give it some thought *turns the radio up*" like... gorgug trying to understand and dismantle the engines. fabian whiffing with his crossbow. fig laying on the horn to warn people coming so they dont hurt anyone. casting sleep on people speeding on motorcycles. them all cramming up the sunroof to cast spells and shoot. johnny's gang all having names that are fucking greaser spell puns. scorching ray. and brennan being like. sometimes you give people names and you think they're gonna be important but you dont rp with them so it doesnt matter. did you know. oohhh daddy.. the cubby's going to get ice cream. adaine's first divination rolls. the beginnings of kristen's religious crisis. it's so iconic.

[aroaceleovaldez]

re: previous post, blog tips!

if just a general pjo blog, that's your house man do what you want. In general though just being frequently active and posting original posts will draw people to your blog. That's just kind of how blogging works. tbh same applies to most social media. just tag things appropriately and you're good (don't crosstag [tag irrelevant stuff, ex: tagging specific characters on a post that does not reference them specifically] and you probably need less tags than you think in general. fandom tags + whatever your own blog's organizational tags are is probably sufficient.) I'll throw some general pjo tagging tips below a cut at the bottom of this post. And obviously don't repost other people's stuff, that's a given. Reblogging is fine, obviously, that's a different thing. The only other thing I would specifically advise is making sure to enable custom themes on your blogs, just cause it's a nice way to show people you're not a bot, customize your blog, and it's just way easier to navigate. Just pick a theme that has very clear buttons, please. Previous/next page, like, reblog, etc. I've personally been enjoying the theme Vision recently.

For askblogs specifically - particularly if your askblog is heavily story-based or OC-based, people aren't likely to reblog frequently from you, so it can be hard to get traction on your askblog. That's just kind of the nature of askblogs. People are also very unlikely to reblog advertisement posts for askblogs. Ergo, best way to get traction on your askblog is to post general art or etc (depending on genre of askblog) occasionally, particularly towards the beginning of the blog, especially little memes and jokes. Also again just posting regularly and tagging appropriately. If you need asks, you are allowed to send yourself prompts or ask your friends to send you ones. I also personally recommend saving asks, since some you might be able to use later or maybe just don't have an idea for yet.

Also if you're starting an askblog, ABSOLUTELY MAKE SURE you open your inbox! Turn on anon if you're able. And if your inbox gets overwhelmed only turn off anon, don't close the inbox completely. Turning off anon will limit the amount of asks you get by a lot. Most askblogs i've seen that have become inactive or died are askblogs that closed their inbox and lost steam as a result, or never opened their inbox to begin with and didn't realize. Also label your blog clearly as an askblog. Askblogs and rp blogs are different things. If it's an RP blog, don't label it as an askblog, and vice versa, unless it is genuinely intended to be both, in which case label it as both, but know 90% of the time if you intend for it to be both it will end up purely an rp blog anyways. Askblogs, even text askblogs, are just a different beast. You can always make two sideblogs for the same character if you'd like.

Tagging advice below the cut cause this got long:

With PJO specifically, general tagging tips - "pjo" and "riordanverse" are the main two to tag stuff with for main series stuff. You can tag stuff "percy jackson" cause that is the series name but i personally try to refrain from that on this blog at least cause it's also a tag shared with a specific character. Obviously if it's side series, MCGA + Magnus Chase or TKC + The Kane Chronicles respectively, plus "riordanverse." I dont usually tag HoO/Heroes of Olympus or TOA/Trials of Apollo unless it is very specifically about those series and not just the characters from that series. Really please stop flooding the HoO and TOA tags with irrelevant stuff. Just keep it to specific-to-that-series.

Also PJO specific character names i just do [whatever name they usually go by in the series] + [surname or if lacking surname, "[series abbreviation]"], so like Leo would be "Leo Valdez" or Dakota would be "Dakota PJO." For deity chars i tag same as no-surname, "[god] PJO" or "[god] TKC" or whatever. For Reyna specifically there seems to be a lot of variations of how her name gets tagged, such as including her middle name or not including the accent or hyphen. I usually try to tag her as "Reyna Ramírez-Arellano."

I usually order tags [series] > [characters] > [etc] + [personal blog organization tags and/or any content warnings necessary] > [commentary tags]. For awhile it was tumblr only counted the first like 5 tags for what to show in tag searches, i think it might be first 20 tags now? unclear. doesn't really matter.

Anyways don't crosstag cause that's spam and otherwise do whatever you want forever have fun

[tiadtm]

oneshot galtean klance starter 💙❤️

dm a rp response if interested!! i rp on discord as well (user: tiadtm) i prefer top keith, bottom lance, open to playing either

concept: canonverse, altean and galran empire coexistence, galran empire isn't evil, blade of marmora is a branch of the galran military, spoiled and flirtatious prince lance

set-up: keith is a member of the blade of marmora, an elite faction of the galran empire's military that specializes in undercover, highly important missions. lance, prince of altea, is captured by a group of rebels and is being held prisoner in the center of a remote, dense cluster. the trip there is days-long and difficult, it takes a skilled pilot to navigate a path to the center. even the most advanced signals cannot reach him, leaving him completely isolated. however, what might prove even harder than saving the prince is having to put up with him all alone on the way out.

~~~~~~~~~

To say this was one of his most important missions in the history of his career was an understatement. The Altean empire was by far the greatest ally to the Galrans, and right now, the fate of their royal family rested in his humble hands. Lance, the sole Altean prince, had been captured by a rebel group and was being contained within a dense cluster that seemed hopeless to penetrate. Despite his relatively younger age, Keith was by far the most skilled pilot in the Blade, which meant he was the most skilled pilot the Galran empire had to offer. His knowledge made him qualified to navigate the cluster, and most likely to conduct a successful getaway chase if necessarily.

Keith couldn't deny his nerves. He knew the stakes with this mission. He knew failing was practically not an option. And he knew if he failed, he would die with Lance. But none of that mattered-- He's a Blade because he doesn't falter. He's a blade because if he can't get the job done, no one can. He's a blade because the mission becomes before anything else. The trip was undeniably difficult-- he'd basically had to find his own path through and any hopes of a signal to his ship was a joke. After days of careful mapping and navigation, he finally did it. He reached the center. He laid his eyes on the base, a small and honestly rather unimpressive structure. Getting through the dense walls of the cluster had been more than half the battle. He stealthily settled his ship near a back entrance, close to where he knew the location of the prince was. Carefully slipping inside, he took out his Blade and slit the throat of any rebels he passed, making sure to hide the bodies. He needed as little pursuers as possible when they realized the prince was gone. Ideally, with how small this organization was, he'd be able to get every last one. It was a miracle that they had been able to capture the prince to begin with-- Although he heavily suspected that prince Lance's notorious naivety had something to do with his kidnapping.

Keith had finally reached the cell where Lance was being kept, letting out a relieved breath as he saw him. Hurrying over, he brought a finger to his mouth to signal him to be quiet before kneeling to start picking the lock.

[etoilesbienne]

i think a lot of my posts end up really salty sounding, but like to be clear i'm just not having fun in this arc anymore, i was having a blast at the beginning, but now? it's kind of miserable. i don't /want/ to watch one team chase another for hours on end until they both have no gear. i don't /want/ to watch one team with no gear keep running in and killing themselves because they have no other choice. like? even outside of rp, that fucking sucks to watch? in esports competitions, they try to make things like this not happen, not because it isn't just unfun for the losing team, it's just miserable for an audience to watch. that's why i was so into the etoiles deals of wanting to stop his team from going too far, but now even he isn't doing it anymore, and it just sucks. like that's what all of the bad manners was inevitably leading to, just two teams on opposite sides of an island killing each other on repeat until neither of them have anything left. i don't doubt all of the eggs returning, but christ this is just painful to sit through for it. like that's where we are now. and we don't even get to wonder why we're here yet. it's one of life's greatest mysteries.

it's just boring writing. sorry. it's hard to watch.

[ancientforgcd]

translate the advice into limbus company ryoshu speak

Listen well, fledglings. At the beginning, your RP may lack refinement—don’t let that gnaw at you. We were all crude sketches once, even the so-called ‘masters.’ Take your time. Hone your craft, carve each line. Power unfurls slowly, not with haste. Patience is a blade, sharpen it.

Next, know the value of clear words. When your path clouds, reach out to those around you. Synchronize, strategize. A seamless dialogue is like ink flowing on a perfect canvas. No one wishes for a jagged stroke—a twist that scars the work.

And remember this: RP is more than a game. Do not let ambition corrode the joy of creation. Indulge in madness, chase the thrill, let victories come—but above all, savor each moment etched into the scene. The journey is the true masterpiece. Now, take up your brush, and make art that carves itself into memory.

[the-crimson]

I’ve seen a decent amount of people comparing the vibes of the qsmp to the dsmp and I thought id give my two cents because there is a huge difference between these servers that I haven’t seen mentioned. I’m gonna put it under a cut so if u don’t care for the dsmp or this comparison ignore this post XD

So, the main thing, is that the dsmp was never intended to be a roll play server while the qsmp was 100% a role play server from the start- like that is the entire point lol

Because the dsmp was never intended to be an rp server, it didn’t have the infrastructure to support the collaboration required irl. There are so many horror stories of last minute script changes and people being left out of the loop for key events and its like... the server had had so much time to implement things irl to help with that but they didn’t because only a few people were running the show.

This is the other thing, the main lore and story was mainly driven by like 3 people so all the other ccs lore and plans were left in the dust. People were constantly being rainchecked on important lore events until it was too late and the server/audience had moved on or the lore that was there was belittled and mocked by the more popular ccs. And because these ccs didn’t take it seriously, neither did their massive audience. Most people only cared about lore where they were the center so collaborating was very difficult. It was really messed up and I’m still salty about a lot of it lol

My favorite arc on the dsmp was the eggpire arc because there were no main characters. Everyone involved was on equal footing and you could tell there was a lot of communication and planning irl and that everyone involved was passionate about the story they were telling. However, any time Tommy touched the lore, I would get so pissed because he was such an ass. Like, any lore Tommy touched that did not revolve around him, he ruined and I’m glad people stopped trying to involve him in the eggpire after like 1 or 2 streams lol He is one of the main reasons many fans thought the eggpire arc was a joke. He is just one example of a cc on the dsmp that had terrible rp etiquette, there were many more.

I think the end of the eggpire arc, the red banquet, was a victim of the more influential ccs on the server not wanting it to become the server ending threat it should have been. They wanted it to remain a side story. The lead up to the red banquet was so amazing and the stream itself was also so amazing but it just felt like the beginning of the eggpire’s arc! I was so confused when that was the end of the eggpire because - without changing anything about the red banquet - it opened the door for a truly great conclusion to the dsmp storyline that could have tied of everyone’s character arcs without it dragging on for another 1, 2?, years only for a weak ass finally.

I have an entire 40 chapter fic outlined where the red banquet is the beginning of the end for the server and its a banger - if i ever actually write it T_T

I’m going to briefly explain why the red banquet planted a future arc perfectly: the egg killed a demigod (Foolish) which could have given it enough energy to hatch or at least become close to it. Purpled could have been playing Quackity and BBH to get double payment and told BBH that Quackity was going to attack, that’s why Purpled didn’t chase after the eggpire when they were escaping - then, when Quackity destroyed his UFO, Purpled joins the eggpire to get revenge on Quackity. Everyone at the red banquet who ate the soup could have been infected by the egg and slowly brainwashed over the following days/weeks. Nicki (a member of the anarchist commune) was on the inside and could have been working with Techno, leading to the anarchist commune joining the fight against the egg as a whole. The Red Banquet was a false victory that put the rest of the server at ease while the eggpire was only growing stronger.

It could have been so good!!!! Screams.

But - my theory - is that bbh and the others had to wrap it up because the bigger ccs had “more important lore” that they wanted to do. The eggpire and red banquet arc felt the most close to the qsmp out of any lore on the dsmp which makes total sense as to why Quackity invited bbh since the eggpire was mainly his creation XD

I think Quackity learned a lot from the chaos and disorder of the dsmp behind the scenes and went out his way to ensure his server would not run into the same problems. Not only is there a solid infrastructure of admins and discord channels, he chooses to bring in ccs who are respectful and have good rp etiquette and know how to tell stories. Everyone has been wondering why Jaiden was added, including Jaiden XD, but it makes sense! She is a story teller and those are the types of people Quackity needed.

At the end of the day, the dsmp was never intended to become an rp server and was doomed by that from the start, just like L’manberg. There are plenty of wonderful stories that were told but so many more that were left in the shadows and forgotten due to poor rp etiquette and that will forever be a tragedy.

[mcytshippystuff]

(/rp, not irl!) OKAY SO! What i think about q!Phil, q!Missa, and q!Forever's relationships in the QSMP;

In my head, q!Philza and q!Missa started out as just co-parents when they were assigned each other to take care of Chayanne. Then they became more like, platonic husbands but I wouldn't say queerplatonic? Like, they felt getting married was just easier but didn't really have the relationship or level of commitment/care a Queerplatonic or romantic relationship would have. Then they started caring for each other, spending time together and having fun, and entered a weird in-between state of tbh they could go either way ya know?

Then Missa started catching feelings. He didn't mean to, honest! But just, the way Phil would worry and cared for him and their son, the time they spent together, how could he not fall for the Death touched Angel? But he wasn't ever sure how to broach it, sometimes he felt as if Phil felt the same but other times it was obvious Phil didn't so it was just a mess, and he wasn't willing to ruin what they had.

(More about Phil's feelings and Forever's part in all this under the cut, its long sorry not sorry lol)

Meanwhile Phil is both Oblivious and very in denial about any feelings, or people trying to point out there may be feelings at all. I'm unsure if id stick q!Phil on the Ace Spectrum or romance just isn't a priority (or if he's just resistant to the idea of it for whatever reason), but either way he cant fathom the idea that people have actual feelings for him, nor that he might have them himself, so he doesn't really look too deep on his feelings and often brushes them away if he's presented with the idea that it may be real.

So what if being with Missa feels like they were the only people in the world? If the way Missa takes care of their son gives Phil light fuzzy feelings in his chest? If having to say goodbye for who knows how long felt like a hole was punched in his chest, and when he came back Phil suddenly felt like the weight of the world was lifted? He cares about his friend, his platonic husband, that's it! Its def not anything romantic pssh that would be ridiculous...

Meanwhile q!Forever, oh poor Forever.

Admittedly in the beginning it was mostly a joke. The resemblance to Brunim, while at first glance, may be strong but to Forever they didn't look alike at all once you got close, in all the small ways that mattered most really. It was funny to tease and poke and get attached to the lookalike but then oh, oh how it stopped being a joke. (Forever refuses to think about there's a good reason why him and Brunim are apart, for both their own sakes)

And maybe, just maybe, for a while it was becuase how much Forever missed Brunim that he got attached to q!Phil, that he started to feel feelings for the man, but if you look close you can see those feelings started to become real, he honestly and genuinely started to fall for Philza. No more mirror images to chase, no, now Phil felt like standing in the heavy rain, every drop stinging but it was so so cleansing, healing, refreshing. Every time Forever got him to laugh felt like a personal victory he'd ride the high of for days, and every sharp, hurtful word was taken with a forced laugh or fake smile and it would linger and haunt his mind.

Forever tried, he really did, but it felt like nothing he could say or do would convince Phil of his real feelings, often slipping up or saying the wrong things and it was Forever's own damn fault, nobody to blame but himself. And maybe he didn't handle this all the best, maybe got to obsessive or said things that went to far but to be honest Forever didn't really know love any other way and was trying to unlearn the worst parts of himself the best he could. It didn't help Forever is really prone to self-destructive behavior when things are going good. And he tried to leave it be, he promises he tried to give up, to let go but the blond Angel had rooted himself, utterly and entirely into Forever's heart and he couldn't bring himself to cut his love for Phil out.

And q!Phil? Well, it was complicated becuase he did genuinely like the man. Forever was funny and for the most part the "crush", if he could call it that, was amusing at best and just annoying at worst times, and even if Forever was annoying or often went too far, Phil knew there was a good man there. He saw it when Forever gave it a rest and they'd have conversations that would last forever. He saw it when Forever would make him laugh until he couldn't breathe or when Forever took care of the eggs as fiercely as Philza did and when the man cried becuase he was so upset at even the idea of loosing any of the kids, and every lose hurt personally. And though he didn't often think to hard on it, sometimes when the other blond would smile or laugh, Phil felt like he was being shone on by the sun, warm, bright, burning, piercing, overwhelming. The quiet moments when Forever would drop all pretenses and masks and just let himself be, in happy, soft, or sad moments made Phi's chest sing.

But Philza couldn't ignore how the fact he was just a stand in hurt in ways Phil wasn't able to explain and to be honest didn't understand why it bothered him so much, it was never a big deal until it suddenly was. Every time Forever assumed something about him or didn't bother to figure out just was another stab in the heart and Phil just got so angry at the fact that Forever tried to say otherwise, but ultimately his affection wasn't real, and he didn't like being played with. Sure he didn't think Forever was doing it maliciously but he just wanted Forever to just stop! Stop how it hurt, how confused it made Phil. He just wanted it to stop being so confusing, to stop questioning these feelings buried deep within his chest. Plus even if wasn't so complicated, some part of him recognizes he also cares deeply about Missa and since they're married, even if its just platonically, its a commitment Phil is committed too so it feels like a betrayal.

Someone tell this man about the wonders of Polyamory!

Meanwhile Forever and Missa are mostly cautious but also a bit hostile towards each other at first, becuase that's competition in their eyes, a threat of their loves, but in the end they chill becuase they realize its neither of their choices and also the other isnt... bad per say. Maybe they even have a understanding becuase they recognize they both love and care for Phil. Maybe they even come to like and even care about the other in the future, who knows.

So, tldr;

Phil has feelings for both Missa and Forever, some more complicated then others, but he both refuses to admit it to even himself or even fathom he could like someone, let alone two people, and his view on Forever still only liking him becuase of his ex made it a lot more complicated becuase he feels hurt. But he has two hands, that's important to remember!

Missa is very in love with Philza but is both too hesitant to say anything, lest he ruin their relationship they have now, and becuase he's been away so much. He really didn't like Forever, both becuase of the "he just likes me becuase I look like his ex" becuase it clearly hurt phil, but he chilled a bit when he realized Forever wasn't a bad person, just complicated and did really love and care for Phil as well, and being hostile towards each other just made Phil more upset. Now they're cool, if not a bit sure about each other, and maybe even come to like or care for each other too later but who knows.

Forever originally liked Philza becuase he looked like Brunim as a joke, and maybe even some of his infatuation started becuase of it too, but he really did come to see Philza as his own person and come to care and even fall in love with Phil for real. However Forever recognizes he's messed up a lot and often still does, but he's trying so hard to both be better and give Philza space but he cant stop loving Phil no matter how hard he tries. Same as above for him and Missa, its complicated but Forever has chilled and is trying hard to work on his jealousy issues. He thinks Missa isnt that bad and might even come to like or care for each other too later but who knows.

Later on, once they all work out their issues and Phil both stops being a oblivious fuck and realizes that Forever really does honestly and truly love him for him, they end up in a polyamory. Its Philza dating them both but maybe end game has Missa and Forever dating too idk lol.

↓ ━ have you had any bad experiences with roleplaying?

mun related ; accepting

HA. Yes, definitely. Someone straight up stole one of my OCs--one of Vartouhi's siblings--once. It was a situation where I had a falling out with a friend for super stupid reasons. This ex-friend was very familiar with Vartouhi and her lore. Had been rping with Vartouhi since almost the beginning of her creation. I even allowed her to make an OC of her own that was one of Vartouhi's ladies in waiting. I was minding my business when another friend messaged me like "Have you seen this??" and linked me the about page of "Karam, an alien prince with an affinity for plants and telekinetic powers that help him control plants." If you take a look at Vartouhi's siblings, one of them is named Aram. Vartouhi's people are plant/tree/flower-like people. The royals of the Balahyan family have telekinetic powers that do a lot of things, include help control plants. Oh, and the kicker was that this ex-friend used that exact same face claim with the same hair color as Aram. As I recall, it was even a picture taken from the same performance that my picture for Aram came from. This was back when I was in the trenches of the kpop rp community, and there was this horrible Mean Girls-style "Burn Book" type blog called krpventblog. People used to complain about me there because they thought I was "face chasing" muses that had the faceclaim Kai from EXO. (When in reality the rpc was so oversaturated with muses using him as an fc because he was popular at the time... And I just never turned people away that had the same fc as someone else I was already interacting with...) I was also a little bit of an elitist brat back then because of my previous rp experiences being so strict, so that wasn't helping my reputation. x'D ANYWAY the point is I was not popular on that blog, AND YET people sent in ask after ask being like "I don't like vartouhix, but this person DEFINITELY stole this muse from her." It was wild. But yeah that and the entire time I rped in the kpop rp community in general would be my worst experiences. There was just a lot going on in that community that was disheartening, racist, and toxic. I stayed in it for so long because for a long time, people in other rpcs wouldn't accept/rp with a muse with an Asian face claim. Idk what changed, but eventually I was able to branch out into the Marvel rp community... And then The Last of Us... and then slowly I became more comfortable with putting myself out there for other fandoms. And that's how I got to where I am now! :3
