Fandom Frenzy (Doubling friendly) Seeking Roleplay Partners

Note: Not replacing any current partners, just always seeking to add more partners.

About Me:

I am 18+ and will only write with partners who are also 18+

Willing to double as any gender, any pairing, any fandom

Prefers writing male characters in male x female relationships (will do AxA when doubling)

Enjoys romance and action in my stories

Laid-back, communicative. I will not ghost you!

Flexible writer, quality posts: post length varies depending on the plot and the post, but my typical range is 1-3+ paragraphs

Attempts to reply every 1-2 days, but will let you know about any unintended absences

Prefers third-person

Willing to play canon characters and original characters

Prefers long-term stories

Most of all, I enjoy writing and collaborating. I consider myself easy to get along with and being able to bring my writing partner joy with each reply is something that drives my passion for this hobby!

Open to nsfw

Bonus: Not required, but I enjoy sibling dynamics. Keep in mind, I'm talking about platonic sibling interactions. If we're doubling with OC/Canon, it could be particularly interesting for our OCs to be siblings. It increases the depth of our world and increases interaction between characters. Again, not required. 

You can add me on discord at fandomfan#0404 or send a chat or message if interested.

Fandoms:

Seeking partners who are willing to play a canon female character. I have plots, pairings, and ideas for each fandom that I list here.

I am not picky. I will not be upset if you do not portray the character with 100 percent accuracy. Please, do not expect that there will be pressure to be perfect. I enjoy it when my partner adds their own twist, anyway

Willing to double and play as anyone you want in return!

Canon characters that I am seeking a partner to play will be listed under the fandom

Fandoms:

Pairings that I am seeking are listed beside the character, but these are not the only pairings I am willing to do. Again, for your half, I'll do whatever you want.

Here is the link to the entire list of my fandoms: https://cipher04.tumblr.com/post/678212321698611200/muse-post

If you will play someone from my list below, I can play something from any of these fandoms if you so desire! There might be others I know about as well so feel free to suggest other fandoms too

Arrowverse

Supergirl

Fear The Walking Dead/The Walking Dead

Alicia Clark

Maggie Greene

Nancy Drew (CW TV show)

Nancy Drew

Riverdale

Betty Cooper

The Lost World (1999 TV series)

Emily Thomas

RPF: With the Women's World Cup going on, I am would absolutely love it if someone could play Alex Morgan from the USWNT for me! I would love to pair her with a male character, either a male OC, another athlete/celebrity, or even her actual husband if you're a fan of their relationship. If I'm using an OC, I am open to a number of pairings from my OC being her coach, to the OC being another professional athlete, an athletic trainer, or even just an average Joe! Tons of ideas here. However, if you like the idea but aren't a fan of Alex, I'm down to hear out any other footballer that you might wish to portray. I am willing to double with RPF as well and can play any celebrity you want, not just limiting it to sports!

If interested, you can react to my post or you can send me a chat. Thanks!

[floripire]

what are your top five fandoms to RP within?

mun memes › @survivingpierce

p.ercy j.ackson was my first fandom and it's the one i come back to again and again, no matter how many times i step away from it. p.ercy j.ackson as a series / franchise is imperfect, certainly, but it was there during a time i desperately needed it, so i'm protective of it as a whole.

t.vd / t.he o.riginals / l.egacies: i saw the shows (minus s4 of l.egacies) from start to finish before i read the books - which i also very much recommend, they're very 90's and white and straight but the concepts and world building are awesome - but it just drew me in. it took me two tries to get through t.vd however because i couldn't stand e.lena at first. (it's much better now ;P)

make no mistake, though, i love to write in this universe but i will also be among the first to call it out for the fact that across the board, there were only three indian women (aimee bradley, gia and emma tig) and two of those were murdered by white people (aimee got killed by katherine at the masquerade ball for bullshit reasons and klaus killed gia to get back at elijah and in a show where people fake their deaths all the time, suddenly this time it was permanent, uh-huh, we all know why that is) and one of them was written out of the show (due to the actress having other jobs lined up) and never got the backstory or complexity she deserved.

those characters deserved to live and imho, g.ilijah should've been endgame.

(also, as much as i love h.ayley, i am not forgiving nor forgetting the fact that she killed a.ya al-r.ashid; i don't give a fuck that she did it to protect her family or whatever.)

m.arvel / dc: i love superheroes. always have, always will. i grew up on 2005's s.ky h.igh and i've watched t.he b.oys and g.en v as well as i.nvincible (though i personally vibe more with hopeful superheroes instead of nihilism and jerkwads).

s.tar t.rek / s.tar w.ars / sci-fi: i was born on international s.tar w.ars day so of course it'd stand to reason that i'd get into it. i got into s.tar t.rek a little later and that's mostly because of tumblr mutuals writing the characters. (i haven't seen r.ebel m.oon yet but that's only because i keep hearing conflicting accounts lmao.) my oc over at @dvarapala is pretty much a sci-fi based oc.

t.wilight / t.rue blood / i.nterview with a v.ampire / m.idnight t.exas / a.bigail / the i.nvitation etc: give me any and all vampires tbh! i operate under the umbrella of: all vampire lore is real and can exist alongside each other (with proper and prior plotting and some discussion to be had). the only one i do not like is a d.iscovery of w.itches because i watched a couple of episodes of that show and the main love interest vampire dude was such a creep and it's never properly talked about and then creepy vampire dude and powerful witch lady become canon???? ew! fuck that!

d.escendants / o.uat: that is to say, the grittier, darker, let's tear away the veil version of d.escendants because if you look close enough, you'll find that they're actually living in a warped dystopian version of the d.isney tales that we grew up with and i think that's fascinating. and also, the age old question of are you destined to be like your parent(s) or can you carve out your own path? and if so, which price will you pay for that, if any?

o.uat is on the list because i, unfortunately - or fortunately, depending on one's pov - grew up to become an o.uat girlie. i know it's not everyone's cup of tea and that's okay. i just find the lore of the universe fascinating. (also, added layer of pain: e.mma s.wan and flori's mom have the same fc and i did that deliberately ;P)

s.upernatural: i'm only at s2 still - i hope i can watch more this summer - but it's so easy to slot my preternaturally inclined muses in there. it's great fun.

t.een w.olf: big s.cott m.ccall stan here. always have been, always will be. it's also very easy to slot my preternaturally inclined muses into that universe as well. and, also, i love the lore. it's very cool. (though i will die on the hill that they should've also used t.een w.itch as well and created a whole t.een w.olf extended universe, but that's neither here nor there.)

b.uffy the v.ampire s.layer: i'm pretty sure i'm still at season 3 with that show but it's also very easy to drop my preternaturally inclined muses in there and take them for a ride.

/ᐠ｡ퟑ｡ᐟ\ @the-hunter-of-teufort-rp 🧁

💙 “Jou wouldn’t be just sitting around wiz people doing everyzing for jou. Jou would be baking and filling up mon kitchen wiz everyzing tasty.” Madilin stubbornly insisted with a playful smile as she continued to try and persuade her to come be hers, despite knowing that there would be no way she could ever convince Johanna to leave her sniper; both because she knew the hunter was straight as an arrow, and that her sniper love wouldn’t ever let her steal his women away. Of course Madilin wasn’t above just sharing, but again she doubted either of them would go for that idea either. One of her hands immediately reach out to gently cup the women’s cheek she had just poked a freckle on, giving it an affectionate squeeze as she teasingly pursed her lips in a pouty protest. “I don’t know what jou are talking about. Ze sun ‘as given jou all zose beautiful freckles. I’m ze one who ‘as to wear sunscreen any time ze sun is out.” 

💙 As true as that statement was the lanky dame often wore sunscreen just purely for protection against anything that might possibly give her wrinkles; being more than obsessive in her quest to have as flawless of a complexion as she could possibly manage. Letting Johanna’s cheek go Madilin reclined back until her shoulders rested against the cabinet behind her with a soft wistful sigh, wholeheartedly adoring all the little love stories that were going on around her between her friends and even her cousin. “’Ave jou and Knowlen discussed jour lives togezer? I know from an ami, zat ‘e can be razer....eager for ze future, non? Jou know, jou should ‘ave a ‘ome near jour family and near ‘is. Zat way jou don’t ‘ave to decide between ze two.” Her statement only further showing how little the slender minx knew about what was normal for the majority of the world, when both she and Claude could easily afford to do something like that if they desired.

💙 “Oh does she? Hm, good. Zen no matter where I go, I can ‘ave eizer of jour delicious food.” The thought had never occurred to Madilin that her cousins amoureux would be able to bake, when neither she nor her cousin knew how to do much more than order food for themselves. A soft startled breath immediately catching in the spies throat when Johanna suddenly dumped a few boxes of cream cheese in her lap, not at all expecting to be included in any of the actually making but not exactly protesting just yet as she began to unwrap them. “I wonder where jour sister and Claude will be moving into ‘is ‘ome in France when zey decided to leave ‘ere. If zey decide to. Claude ‘as never ‘ad an amour before, so zis is all new. ‘As jour sister said anyzing to jou?”

Additional information ––– – Smoking Habit: Excessive Drugs: Occasionally Alcohol: Steering clear

RP Hooks ––– – Hero For Hire - Missing cargo?  Need someone found?  Misplaced your horse?  Or maybe getting pushed around by the less than savory?  Zexx Candell is your man.  An accomplished swordsman, moderate investigator, and lucky son of a bitch, the 'cyclops' is always ready to aid those in a bind.  He'd like to try and stick to his mercenary tendencing for payment, but it'd be a lie to assume pro bono wouldn't be written on his tombstone.

A Man About Space - Zexx is not from around here as the multiverse a vast and expansive place with small changes here and there that cause astronomical results.  A ward or victim of the Bronze Dragonflight, Zexx was pulled from his own world and brought to this for safekeeping due to his work upon his own lost plane.  Despite being on this place for some time, his past seems to follow him despite the distance he put between them.  Old loves, lost children, and vendetta rich foes seem to find their way in his path when least expected or needed.

Family is All He Wants - Despite his bravado and grit, a deep hurt rests in the man's soul.  Loss has gripped from every age, from this parents as boy, to his home in more ways than one, and to his children cast into the dice cup of the multiverse.  He knows they're out there, jut not sure where to or how to find them.

Treading Water - Zexx is an alcholic and struggles to keep himself afloat in times of strees, good or bad.  Noted for his heavy smoking now and need to drink the hot juice of beans, the sweet scent of whiskey and beer is never far from his mind.  The wagon is sturdy but bouncy and sometimes a tumble can lead to more trouble.

HOW TO CONTACT:

OoC - tumblr, Discord ( Mogwai Kraken#7988), Ingame (Zexx) IC - The world is in chaos and the hero for hire, Zexx Candell seems to have stumbled into the midst of it all again.  Literally.  With the Scourge returning and attacking settlements, the swordsman was ready to pick up his sword to face the maddened enemy again.  Having returned to Stormwind with a somber cargo, the 'cyclops' was ready for anything except a family reunion.

Reeling from the meeting of far to many minds and hearts sent Zexx spiraling off the wagon with a far deadlier crash then he expected.  The sounds of war and battle ringing in his ears with a foul stench of blood, shit, and sweat.  Maldraxxus looms before the lost hero as he finds himself in the coliseum of battle but not alone.

An unseen face but familiar eyes has stalked this world for a long time in search of the battle he kept in life. Voldrin, slayer of trolls, sword of Arathi, the Wick in the Dark has found his supposed ancestor.  And he is found lacking.

Feng Min🎮 Before the Fog

Hey I made a small introduction to Feng Min on her last day in her world for a rp server I’m on and wanted to share it. Her character is so cool but I hear not a lot of people write for her so I wanted to give some love to this gamer girl. I hope you enjoy. 

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

"Feng, Feng Min, Feng!" Feng jolts up from her chair as the owner of the internet café gives her a concerned look. Feng looks around as her screen shows a large Game Over screen in front of her. 

    "Damnit," Feng brushes her fingers through her hair wiping the stream of drool on her face. The area around her was filled with wrappers and napkins as a blanket rests over her shoulders. 

    "Feng listen you've been here for days." The owner rests a hand on her shoulder. Feng frowns at him rubbing the crust from her eyes. 

    "Maybe go home take a shower and rest a bit. Trust me the games will always be here." He pats her on the back as he goes to help out a customer. Dark brown eyes look over the screen as she leans back in the chair crossing her arms. Her head throbs as she takes a deep breath slowly getting up from the chair. 

    Shit just great, another game over. She thinks to herself as she cleans her station and starts to pack up her things. All the wrappers and empty cups of coffee from the previous days end up in the bin. As she walks to the entrance she makes sure to place a large tip for the owner having to deal with her for the past few days. Her hand opens the door wincing a bit at the light she hasn't seen in what felt like ages. She coughs fishing through her pockets to find a simple black mask. The air quality has never been the best in the heavy parts of the city. People pass by her going about their lives in a sea of blurs. Feng looks straight ahead, her mind focusing on strategies and her next moves. A person bumps into her, but she doesn't notice making the track back to her apartment. 

    The building was placed in the middle of the serval internet cafes and arcades giving her enough access to training when need be, and as of lately the bars have been pretty good too. She squeezes through the bodies trying to move in and out of the complex. 

    "Ms. Feng Min your rent is due soon." The landlord said from the front desk.

    "Can't talk now, I will have it later." She waves her off hopping on the elevator. The doors are about to close until someone places their hand out making them open up again. A woman wearing a bright smile greets her squeezing into the elevator. She steps in seeing the button was already pressed for her floor.

    "Hello good morning." She smiles sweetly. 

    "Hi," Feng lets out a sigh resting her head on the wall. 

    "Rough day?" The woman asks. 

    "Rough Life." Feng blurts out a bit surprised at herself, she must be tried, she's being social. That's a huge red flag. 

    "Aw I'm sorry to hear that. Your name is Feng right?" Her brown eyes narrow at the women. 

    "How did you know that?" She crosses her arms.

    "Oh I live next door to you." She tilts her head. Feng raises a brow. 

    "You know Maryann, I lived by you for three years, I gave you muffins for the holidays." Oh she threw away those muffins. She always waited too long to eat them. However with the way her stomach twists right now she wishes she had eaten them. Her eyes dart to the sparkly ring on the woman's finger. 

    "Married?" Might as well go all the way into this socializing thing, it's not like she does it every day. 

    "Engaged going to be married soon." She smiles looking at the ring with such warmth foreign to Feng. Like she has ever had time for relationships all she wanted to do was win, watching her team deal with them and get distracted didn't do much to convince her they were worthwhile. 

    "Congrats." With a large stretch the elevator opens as they both step out. 

    "Thank you we've made so many plans for a house upstate, with nice schools for kids when they came around. I can't wait, we're already thinking of names."

    Were my parents this happy thinking about kids? It's so hard to imagine how they barely talk now. She wonders what stops them from having more children to cover the mistake that is her.

    They walk for a bit as they reach their rooms. Feng takes out her key, opening up her dark apartment. 

    "Well it was nice talking to you Feng have a nice day." She waves. Feng gives her a small smile stepping into her home closing and locking the door behind her. It was a dark loft apartment with plush furniture and high tech gaming equipment. Posters littered the walls and trophies adorn the shelves picking up dust. She throws her things on the couch pressing the button to open the blinds to a full city skyline. The money she made in tournaments helped her afford all this. Being among the highest to show that she could win. Rain starts to fall along the glass as she peels away from the view to head upstairs to shower. She finds her more comfy clothes heading to the bathroom. 

    Turning on the water she undresses stepping inside welcoming the warm water as it cascades down her hair and back. Her forehead presses against the cool tile as she counts her breaths. It's been six weeks, six agonizing weeks since she was ordered to take a break from the team after her recent mistakes costing tournaments, she even got kicked out of the dorms. She punches the wall as a wave of disappointment passes over her. She can't lose, she can't lose, she has come so far. Only to fall now in her prime would be pathetic and every doubt everyone made about her would be true. She couldn't count the thousands of comments in the fan forums all of them saying she was losing her touch. That she was only a one hit wonder, a smile creeps onto her face. She would show them she would so all of them. Her determination was too strong to give up. 

    "Fuck that." She would rather die than give up a game she knows she can win. The goal was so close she could feel it. She was so close to her purpose. 

 She steps back finishing her shower, now that she's more awake she can realize how dirty she was as stains cover her old shirt and the pits are ripe with sweat. 

    "Gross," She tosses everything in the hamper turning off the water. She looks in the mirror wiping away the fog. Black hair sticks to her pale skin as dark eyes stare back at her. She can't remember the last time she looked at herself. As she grew thinner or as she gained weight. She couldn't even tell anymore. Drying herself off she shakes her head cleaning herself up changing her clothes. After she blows, dries her hair until it untangles and is soft again. When she's done she cracks her knuckles heading back downstairs hoping to get some practice in on her console but her stomach growls loudly. 

    "Shit," her stomach hasn't seen a full meal in days. She could order take out, but she knows she needs to get outside more. With a large yawn and a pop of her back she grabs her bag and keys. Her feet step out into the apartment once more locking the door behind her. Leaving the building a few hours have past since she as been in her apartment getting ready. She thinks about what she wanted to do pulling up her hood and putting her mask back on. Feng fumbles in her bag taking out her earphones to play a soundtrack from her favorite game. The rain falls around her but she doesn't mind welcoming the sensation. She has forgotten how much she missed playing outside. In a time when her parents weren't so disappointed in her and splashed in the puddles at the park. A time the world was so new and she wasn't a black sheep to anyone. A laugh escapes her mouth, maybe there was a time people liked being around her. She didn't really do much out of gaming but anyone could see that fact. The smell of food fills her nose as a restaurant comes into view. It's a place she's been to before and liked what they had there. Authentic Chinese food reminded her of what her family's chefs would make. She opens the door getting a whiff of the food a bit more now. 

    The restaurant was a family run establishment creating a cozy feel as a fire runs in the background. Pictures of past customers all smiling hang on the walls.

    "Would you like a table Ma'am?" A man asks her. 

    "Table for one please." The man takes out one menu sitting Feng down at the bar. She already knows what she wants as she hands back the menu just asking for water to drink. The man smiles nodding his head going to get her order. She looks at the tv listening to the sounds of the chefs cooking in the kitchen. The tv shows a news report talking about the esports tournaments. She rubs her temple, she really doesn't need this right now. 

    "Last month the popular esports team lost the primary rounds, however it wasn't always like this. Since the teams current decline fans have been reminiscing the past wins of the team." She puts her head in her hands as someone asks to turn it up. "One name that always comes up is the player Shining Lion. Otherwise known as Feng Min, a star in the field who won her team the championship cup." They show Feng Min with her team carrying the shining trophy that now sits in her apartment as it lost its luster. Her smile was wide and her eyes filled with joy. She remembers every moment of that day hearing the crowds chant her name and the phone calls she got afterwards for commercial deals and TVs shows, collabs with famous gamers she looked up to, but that day her parents actually told her she did a good job. That was something she never forgot. 

    Her food comes back as she begins to eat and the reporter moves on to other stories. The food was as good as she remembered loving each bite as all her problems seem to melt away. That was until a voice rang in the back of her. 

    "That's Shining Lion, dude she's over there." Her shoulders drop stabbing her chopsticks in her dumplings. She slowly turns around to see a few kids staring at her. One kid shushes the others as he walks over fiddling with his fingers. 

    "Um excuse me Ms. Lion can you please take a picture with us." She looks at her food then at the kid. His eyes looked at her with such adoration. 

    "Sure kid I'll take a picture." She couldn't say no to a face like that.  

    "Awesome, and don't worry my parents owned the restaurant. I can pay you back in dumplings." She snorts at that. Huh, she can't remember the last time she laughed either. They stand in the back as him and his friends take turns posing in pictures with her. 

    "Thank you so much, you were always my favorite in the team, I wanna be just like you some day." The boy said as his friends nod in agreement. 

    "Thanks," She brushes her hair behind her ear. The boy then looks down as the others start to look sad. Feng raises a brow at that tilting her head as one of them speaks up. 

    "We are sorry to hear the news." The one that called out to her before said.

    "Yeah the team is full of a bunch of idiots for getting rid of you." Her stomach sinks to the floor at that. 

    "What?" She was a bit breathless. The boy takes out his phone showing her the team's official website. It rests on the screen in bold letters. Feng Min Known as Shining Lion will hereby be cut from the team for the foreseeable future her space will be filled by a new up and comer. She looks back at the kids then at the phone this message was a few hours ago. 

    "Is everything okay?" The kids look at her concerned as Feng stands up taller now. 

    "Yes, don't worry about it." She walks away, placing down a large bunch of cash as she walks out the restaurant pulling out her phone. She has the team's manager on speed dial as she waits under a street light for her to pick up. 

    "Hello," Feng clutches her phone.

    "Feng uh hey, um listen we need to talk." They say over the phone. 

    "Cut the bullshit, I know, I saw the message. Why the fuck did you cut me, I was on a break I would've been back in gear in a few days." She starts to shake a bit wanting to throw up. 

    "Feng the team and I have been talking and I don't think it's been getting healthy for you to stay." They try to say softly. 

    "What?! And replacing me with someone else without a fucking word was going to make me better!" She shouts, several heads turn towards her as she moves into the alley to sit on a step, her leg jumping up and down.

    "Feng it's not like that, listen the team hasn't been doing well and you have been slipping. As much as you are advantaged you are much more of a liability. Especially with your drunken escapades that you can't seem you remember. It's just...not a good look for us please understand." Feng forms a tight line as she throws her phone to the ground cracking the screen. The rain falls harder as tears fall from her eyes. She leans her head back looking at the sky. The sun starts to set over the city. She stays there for what feels like hours, her soul sinking into a pit. A pit she's trying to crawl out of, enough to where her nails draw blood. Thunder roars overhead as she slowly gets up, grabbing her broken phone and placing it in her pocket as she walks aimlessly throughout the city. So much for her purpose to think all that hard work only to have to do it all over again. She kicks a rock as a neon sign catches her attention. It's a bar having a deal on drinks. 

    "Of course." A sad smile creeps into her face. The comfort she always tries to escape always finds itself in front of her again. What did she have to lose? Boots splash into puddles as she walks up to the bar hearing the drunken cheers of people. Feng walks inside the dim establishment taking a seat in the back ordering a round of beer for herself. She drinks, and drinks, and drinks letting everything in her world drown out. Leaving only thoughts of winning, maybe it's just hopeful thinking but she's going to get out of this pit and rise above it all. She will find her purpose even if it kills her. After a few bottles she pays and leaves the bar walking around the city until she finds a nice trash pile to fall into. The alcohol was getting to her as she looked at the black sky. It's so endless to her you never know what's out there. Whatever the future holds she will find her purpose she will win no matter what. Her eyes grow heavy as her body grows cold. A cloud of fog escapes her lips as it starts to surround her, but before she could react she gets pulled into the embrace of sleep as a spike of determination fills her core. She gets shocked with a wave of electricity as a haunting laugh greets her in the darkness.

And with that Feng was never seen again.

Something Borrowed

A/N - A short one-shot inspired by a dream @pedropascalito​ had. Practicing at keeping my stories under 48 chapters. 

          Warning - fluff, swear swords, RP fic.      Words - 970

I was in my 30’s and my life was a mess. Absolute agony from crushing, like some 14-year-old, on my roommate, Pedro Pascal. Yes, the actual Pedro Pascal. It was a nightmare.

One day, I’m at work in the casting department at a production company, minding my own business, the next, I‘m letting Pedro Pascal move into my spare room for six weeks because of some bed bug debacle at his Airbnb. It was the most random string of events and despite being involved, I still don’t really understand how it happened.

But... the real problem was, he was truly a nice guy; sweet, funny and the type of person who immediately put you at ease. Of course he was also professional and considerate and made you feel, within minutes, like you had literally known him for years. Worse and most offensive, he was totally oblivious to his effect on women, mainly me. Not to mention, acted like anything and everything I cooked was the best thing he had ever tasted, ever. He even hugged me once after a quick eggs benny, telling me I was the world’s best roommate and how much he was going to miss me. It was sheer hell.

Our arrangement was short lived though. I knew he would be gone soon, and I pushed that thought out of my mind every time it reared it’s ugly head. The perverse reality was if some guy approached me on the street, all scruffy and wearing old jeans and a ratty T, I would laugh. Him though, honestly, he just looked adorable and sexy like he was up for anything.

One night, I had to feign exhaustion just so I could retreat to my room because he, with his addiction to Netflix, wanted us to watch some forensic nonsense show and share the couch, not to mention a fucking blanket. Once safe in my room, I sat on my bed and stared at the closed door between us, feeling my skin heat and tingle start between my thighs.

Finally, last night, I found myself alone. He was gone for three nights and I could fully indulge by tip toeing into his room and stealing his signature plaid flannel shirt. In truth, the thing was kinda hideous but looked incredible on him, particularly when he wore his thick framed glasses. I put it on, got into my bed and snuggled under the quilt replaying in my mind all of the conversations we had shared, late at night, while enjoying a glass of wine or numerous cups of tea.

Waking that morning with the sun, I rose and puttered aimlessly around the apartment. Drinking coffee, I watered my plants, loving the way the fabric of his over-sized shirt moved against my skin, smelling of old spice deodorant. God, that stuff was’t just for dads anymore.

Behind me, rattling, the sound of keys in the lock on the front door jolted me from my morning bliss. Before I could snap into action, the door swung open and Pedro appeared. With a backpack slung over his shoulder, he braced the base of the door with his foot, yanking out his keys. Stepping in, he stopped in his tracks, narrowing his eyes as if studying me, standing frozen before him like a stunned deer.  

By the twinkle in his eyes, I could tell he was noticing more than just my bare legs and the fact that I was only wearing a man’s flannel shirt. Oh yes, he knew instantly that if he were to check the inside of the collar, his name would be neatly printed on the tag in black marker. It was so weird that he did that.....

“Morning,” he finally chimed.

“Morning,” I replied, forcing the shock off my face.

“Is that...” he playfully dropped his chin and eyed me, “my shirt?”

There was a lift in his voice but he continued to stare, not giving me the chance to skulk away.

“Uh, yeah. It was chilly last night so I....”

“You… slept in it?” he asked and this time with a smile. 

Brat

“Borrowed it,” I corrected, not wanting to say when. My eyes scanned the room looking for a distraction.

“Out of the dirty laundry?” he pressed, his smile morphing into a straight up grin.

“Ah, yeah. I like...your,” oh god, where was I going with this? “smell.”

Oh fuck!! Fuck! Kill me! I screamed in my head.

Something flashed in his expression, but it was hard to tell what; amusement, pity, perhaps an attempt to conceal his horror.

“Want a coffee?” I squeaked, clearing my throat and walking toward him but veering off into the kitchen, desperate to hide.

“Yes, please,” he replied in a serious tone and I suddenly worried I had made him uncomfortable.

“What happened to the shoot?” I called back over my shoulder grabbing his favorite mug and filling it with coffee - black, just how he liked to drink it.

“Too dry. Forest fire risk with the stunts.”

By the volume of his voice and the sensation of his eyes burning into my back, I could tell he had moved into the kitchen and was now standing just behind. Turning with a cup of coffee in each hand, I gasped, lurching to a stop, finding him mere inches away.

He was no longer smiling but there was an unmistakable brightness in his warm brown eyes that seemed to be roaming my face, flitting down to look at my mouth and then back up to my eyes. Oh god. 

“You know what else smells like me?”

All I could do was lift my brows inquisitively as his hands reached out, gently grabbing me by the waist. Dropping his eyes back down to my mouth, he began to lean forward, slowly toward my lips, giving me the answer in one breathy, whispered word, 

“Me.”

Fandom Frenzy (Doubling friendly) Seeking Roleplay Partners

Note: Not replacing any current partners, just always seeking to add more partners.

About Me:

I am 18+ and will only write with partners who are also 18+

Willing to double as any gender, any pairing, any fandom

Prefers writing male characters in male x female relationships (will do AxA when doubling)

Enjoys romance and action in my stories

Laid-back, communicative. I will not ghost you!

Flexible writer, quality posts: post length varies depending on the plot and the post, but my typical range is 1-3+ paragraphs

Attempts to reply every 1-2 days, but will let you know about any unintended absences

Prefers third-person

Willing to play canon characters and original characters

Prefers long-term stories

Most of all, I enjoy writing and collaborating. I consider myself easy to get along with and being able to bring my writing partner joy with each reply is something that drives my passion for this hobby!

Open to nsfw

Bonus: Not required, but I enjoy sibling dynamics. Keep in mind, I'm talking about platonic sibling interactions. If we're doubling with OC/Canon, it could be particularly interesting for our OCs to be siblings. It increases the depth of our world and increases interaction between characters. Again, not required. 

You can add me on discord at fandomfan#0404 or send a chat or message if interested.

Fandoms:

Seeking partners who are willing to play a canon female character. I have plots, pairings, and ideas for each fandom that I list here.

I am not picky. I will not be upset if you do not portray the character with 100 percent accuracy. Please, do not expect that there will be pressure to be perfect. I enjoy it when my partner adds their own twist, anyway

Willing to double and play as anyone you want in return!

Canon characters that I am seeking a partner to play will be listed under the fandom

Fandoms:

Pairings that I am seeking are listed beside the character, but these are not the only pairings I am willing to do. Again, for your half, I'll do whatever you want.

Here is the link to the entire list of my fandoms: https://cipher04.tumblr.com/post/678212321698611200/muse-post

If you will play someone from my list below, I can play something from any of these fandoms if you so desire! There might be others I know about as well so feel free to suggest other fandoms too

Arrowverse

Supergirl

Fear The Walking Dead/The Walking Dead

Alicia Clark

RPF: With the Women's World Cup going on, I am would absolutely love it if someone could play Alex Morgan from the USWNT for me! I would love to pair her with a male character, either a male OC, another athlete/celebrity, or even her actual husband if you're a fan of their relationship. If I'm using an OC, I am open to a number of pairings from my OC being her coach, to the OC being another professional athlete, an athletic trainer, or even just an average Joe! Tons of ideas here. However, if you like the idea but aren't a fan of Alex, I'm down to hear out any other footballer that you might wish to portray. I am willing to double with RPF as well and can play any celebrity you want, not just limiting it to sports!

If interested, you can react to my post or you can send me a chat. Thanks!

[cicaklah]

Pinching myself at the actual fanfic level romanticism of two of the England womens cricket team getting married to each other after getting together after winning the world cup, like this is the kind of plot of an RPS fic I'd read under plain covers and yet it is real life, cricket is literally better than reality

THE POSITIVE & NEGATIVE; Mun & Muse - Meme.

fill out & repost ♥ This meme definitely favors canons more, but I hope OC’s still can make it somehow work with their own lore, and lil’ fandom of friends & mutuals. Multi-Muses pick the muse you are the most invested in atm. tagged by: stolen from @dansiere tagging: @ghiassan, @deathsreflection, @altuspavus, @windrunnerrs (velanna), @hopewrought, @willbeshot, @seahaloed (iron bull), @asterfed​ (noctis), @ anyone who wants to steal it! also multis feel free to choose a different character

My muse is:   canon / oc / au / canon-divergent / fandomless / complicated (i’m open to roleplaying with non-dragon age characters, and have AUs for other fandoms)

Is your character popular in the fandom? YES / NO. solas is both wildly popular and wildly hated. he’s been more consistently popular than the controversial women in the series, like sera or vivienne, who have only recently begun to get to the point where their tags are less vitriolic (although i’m sure it’s still out there), but there’s still a sizable hatedom that can’t have his name breathed in their vicinity w/o them talking abt how much they hate him. even if you’re currently cosplaying him!

Is your character considered hot™ in the fandom?  YES / NO / IDK. again, you have ppl who are super into him and ppl who think he’s ugly. my personal opinion is that i think he’s weirdly pretty, and wish ppl would commit more to his unconventional features rather than try to chisel him into sb more traditionally attractive and that ppl who don’t find him attractive would maybe chill w/ calling him ugly. find him unattractive by all means, but lets embrace the fact that inquisition let their love interests have skin flaws etc and accept that some won’t be our cups of tea.

Is your character considered strong in the fandom?  YES / NO / IDK. its hard to deny at this point tbh.

Are they underrated?  YES / NO / IDK. frustrating as the hate in the tags he has enough fans that i couldnt say he’s underrated w/ a straight face.

Were they relevant for the main story?  YES / NO. he’s the reason the game starts with a bang and not the inevitable dissolution of the conclave b/c the sides are disparate.

Were they relevant for the main character? YES / NO / THEY’RE THE PROTAG. regardless of solas’ relationship with the inquisitor, there are parallels and contrasts in their stories and he also is the reason they survive inquisition.

Are they widely known in their world? YES / NO. fen’harel is well-known and revered, if feared, among the dalish, yet at the same time he’s not remembered for a lot besides locking the gods away-- and the context of that decision has also been lost. as solas he’s relatively unknown until inquisition and especially trespasser.

How’s their reputation?  GOOD / BAD / NEUTRAL. again, polarising!! he has loyal agents and people are willing to speak well of him despite everything, including his enemies sometimes (depending mostly on the inquisitor). 

How strictly do you follow canon?  — generally i try to have a canon basis for my interpretation, even if i interpret the text differently than the author.

SELL YOUR MUSE! Aka try to list everything, which makes your muse interesting in your opinion to make them spicy for your mutuals.  —  solas is an immortal who is simultaneously jaded and very much invested in the small moments of life. far from being weary of the day-to-day lives of ordinary people, it is systems and orders he is most tired of. he walks an interesting line that feels far less misanthropic than other immortal characters i’ve experienced, yet still he’s quite cynical. as a character who has fought against religious based tyranny before, but in a completely different era, he is in a unique position where what he sees around him is both horrifyingly familiar and yet completely new. it allows an exploration of the wrongs of thedas’ society from an outsider’s perspective. his motivations are complex and multifaceted, often condemnable and yet also understandable. his character arc in inquisition (if befriended, or regardless in the case of my solas) takes him from a dispassionate, disconnected antagonist to someone deeply invested in the people of thedas, deeply conflicted and actively hoping he will be proven wrong again. i think his story is a testament to human (or elven, or dwarven, or-) connection and how even when we resist we can’t resist creating bonds with the people in our lives. i personally see this bond going beyond the inquisitor hence why i play low-approval solas as conflicted as high-approval, if not when it comes to the inquisitor.

Now the OPPOSITE, list everything why your muse could not be so interesting (even if you may not agree, what does the fandom perhaps think?).  —  solas is selfish and motivated solely by revenge, he’s clinging to a past that clearly no longer exists, if you ignore all the people from it who are still alive. he’s totally unaware of all his flaws and never owns up to any mistakes ever. no, i haven’t listened to a single word solas has said in my life why do you ask. he’s also critical of my faves which means he’s #cancelled, there is clearly no validity to what he’s saying. ksjdf no but in all seriousness i think a lot of reasons ppl don’t find solas interesting are just... weird readings of his character that sometimes have no basis in the text of inquisition, but also there are plenty of perfectly valid reasons to not find him interesting. usually those ppl don’t like... talk abt how much they don’t find him interesting constantly tho. they just chill and aren’t invested in this particular villain. for one thing i think the game missed out on opportunities for exploring how someone who may not have even had a body at the beginning of his existence would feel about gender and sexuality, so making him presumably straight and cis was a boring choice. i also think that the dragon age games being very protagonist-centric hurts solas’ character, there’s no real reason why the inquisitor is the only one who can throw his plans into question but making the player the center of the universe means he’s not allowed to change due to the effects of other companions or NPCs. thank god this is rp and i do what i want.

What inspired you to rp your muse?  —  i have a history degree so when the inquisition companions were being teased, solas describing bias in primary sources from the memories he’s seen got me interested in him. but my first playthrough i didn’t actually take him with me all too often, i think my main party was dorian-blackwall-varric. i liked him, and i think he or dorian were my first friends in skyhold, but my initial interest was in other characters. between his dialogue that appealed to the historian in me tho and how his spirit opinions sort of turned everything i’d felt about spirits in the last two games on its head, i started vibing with him more the farther i went in. like merrill set me up for the “spirits are people” thing and solas hit it out of the park. then temple of mythal happened, and i did bring solas with me there. i found his dialogue fascinating and also suspicious, i’d just finished masked empire like the day before da:i came out so i definitely thought solas was an ancient elf in the same vein as felassan. it was after temple of mythal that i actually decided to make his blog, although like as one idk linchpin to cement my status as solas trash... i was hit BAD by the banter bug on my first playthrough, probably got like a dozen banters total. but then at some point late in the game i took solas to the forbidden oasis and he wouldn’t stop talking to people, and i really loved his banter with the rest of my party at the time.

What keeps your inspiration going?  —  replaying inquisition, new DA content when the bioware gods deign to grant us a lifeline, but the biggest thing is my rp partners. i wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for the people i write with, new and old. my activity of late hasn’t been the best, work and the summer heat has really been sapping me of energy, and does even during years when we aren’t going through a pandemic. but it’s the thought of my rp partners and love of solas that keeps me coming back.

Some more personal questions for the mun.

Give your mutuals some insight about the way you are in some matters, which could lead them to get more comfortable with you or perhaps not.

Do you think you give your character justice?  YES / NO / I SINCERELY HOPE I DO? i have my doubts sometimes, but i think i do ok.

Do you frequently write headcanons?  YES / NO / SORT OF? there is no headcanon too small for me.

Do you sometimes write drabbles?  YES / NO. but not lately * gestures to the low activity * i’ve been in this cycle where i get anxious abt late replies, so prioritise them, then burn myself out and can’t write the fics i want. i’ve had two i’ve been DYING to write tho i just... need to find the space in my brain to let myself.

Do you think a lot about your Muse during the day? YES / NO. i mean it depends on the day. if i work closing shifts at my store it gets very quiet and boring around 8:30 so i spent the next 90 minutes thinking about character stuff.

Are you confident in your portrayal?  YES / NO / SORT OF? 

Are you confident in your writing?  YES / NO / SOMETIMES. 

Are you a sensitive person?  YES / NO / SORTA.

Do you accept criticism well about your portrayal?  —  i’m going to say ‘no’ because like, i don’t ask for criticism. this is a hobby based on my interpretation of a character, if you think i write solas too soft then you’re welcome to think that, but i’m happy with the balance i’ve struck with his internal versus external behaviour and how he changes based upon who he’s speaking to. if you think i’m erasing straight people by making solas pan then ksjdfs. ok.

Do you like questions, which help you explore your character?  —  yes!!! even if they retread ground already trodden, a) my interpretation may have adjusted since the last time i played or b) a reminder is nice. if it’s new stuff then it’s fun to think about.

If someone disagrees to a headcanon of yours, do you want to know why?  —  it’d depend on why they disagree. if they just disagree on a subjective opinion about what i took from a certain line, then they’re welcome to their opinion but i don’t necessarily care to hear it. if it is unintentionally hurtful then i would like to know. although rather than a comment i’d rather a non-anonymous message.

If someone disagrees with your portrayal, how would you take it?  —  same as the above.

If someone really hates your character, how do you take it?  —  if they’re vocal about it i typically just unfollow / softblock if i was following in the first place. people can feel how they want about solas, but i’ve found over the years that if people really hate solas ooc it can often bleed into their ic interactions. it’s really weird seeing your character being brought up repeatedly in threads with others specifically to dunk on, for no reason other than i guess solas is living rent free in their heads, so at least we have that in common. but anyway unfollowing is just the best choice to avoid getting kinda pressed if i’m having a bad day.

Are you okay with people pointing out your grammatical errors?  —  roleplay is the wild west of writing, so i think it’d depend on what the error was. coming at me like “you shouldn’t start a sentence with a preposition” would get a laugh, but i don’t edit my replies much if at all and mistakes will 100% happen. pointing out typos is chill so long as you do it politely.

Do you think you are easy going as a mun?   —  it depends! i’ve learned that being too easy going actually just means i’m subjecting myself to negative emotions to please people. so i’ve gotten less easy going as the years go by. how does one define “easy going” anyway? does asking that question mean i am objectively not easy going? the longer this thought goes on the more the answer seems to be “probably not,” but i like to think it could be a lot worse.

Blaine’s POV:

Blaine had not planned on having anyone to spend Valentine’s Day with so he’d offered to work at Bookish the night of and soon grew to regret it as a certain green eyed man walked back into his life. He cursed himself, knowing that he could have spent the night working up the courage to ask Sebastian for touches and maybe even kisses and instead had spent it making lovey dovey drinks for giggling couples and sneaking glances at his phone, fighting a smile every time he had one from Seb. The feeling of said smile still felt strange on his face after years of forcing them, but he supposed he needed to get used to it now that Sebastian, stubborn and beautiful, was taking up occupancy in his heart again. (Had he ever really left?) he’d loved Valentine’s Day once, maybe with Sebastian around he would again even if their celebration was belated. 

He’d been forced to wait four days after the couple’s holiday to get what he wanted, but when he finally did his whole body and mind seemed to soar like it hadn’t done in years. It was Friday evening and Sebastian was in his arms, on his sofa with glittering fairy lights twinkling around them and the sounds of Disney’s Aladdin playing in the background. (Seb loved Princess Jasmine.) They had been out to dinner, Seb’s very expensive treat, and Blaine had even managed not to talk himself out of the winter flowers he’d purchased for Sebastian. His face hot and red as he handed them to him. They sat on Blaine’s coffee table waiting for Sebastian to take them home and nourish them. He’d smiled like Blaine had given him the world when he’d handed them to him and Blaine felt seventeen again.

Sebastian had been so sweet tonight, each time he’d reached for Blaine he made sure to show his hands, his fingers gentle anytime he touched him. And when he cupped his face a few minutes ago for their first real kiss since their sushi date, goodbye pecks from the two times they’d met for coffee not included, Seb’s fingers were kind and soft on his jaw as he pulled Blaine’s face in and pressed his lips so sweetly against his that Blaine thought he might cry from the sheer joy of it all. It was like Sebastian was slowly bringing him back to life. He knew they had such a long way to go, but each tentative slide of tongues and each little noise of pleasure that they elicited from each other, was one step closer and Blaine was clinging to it harder than he clung to Seb’s shoulders now.

His cheeks were flushed and his lips were kiss swollen and he could feel Seb’s kisses all the way down to his core, he was uncomfortable against his pants and wanted to press against Seb so badly. He knew he wasn’t quite ready for that, but that didn’t stop him from wanting it.  Their kiss seemed to go on and on for hours in a tangle of giggles, and tongues and accidental nose bumps and probably would have gone on for longer but Seb’s slender and long fingers- that had been resting on Blaine’s shoulders had fluttered against the back of Blaine’s neck for the briefest of moments and suddenly Blaine was back in his old apartment he shared with Kurt and Rachel and he and Kurt were kissing and Blaine was thinking they were having one of their “good days”, when Kurt's lightly pressing fingers would just suddenly turn harsh and grab his neck so hard Blaine could hardly breathe.

He tensed and gasped and he hated himself for it because he knew, he fucking knew that Sebastian was not Kurt. He was nothing like him, never had been and never would be. But, Blaine tensed anyway, tearing away the joy of their incredible journey of relearning each other. He reached up and placed his hands over Seb’s to stop him, moving them from his neck and holding them both in his hands like a lifeline. He bit his bottom lip and looked nervously up at Seb, hoping he hadn’t ruined the whole mood and trying to keep his emotions inside.

“God, I’m sorry.” He worried at his bottom lip, and let his fingers worry at Seb’s fingers. “I’m trying so hard and that was amazing and I’m fucking it up. I used to love being touched there and now one fucking slip and I’m yanked back into the past.” He wanted nothing more than to put Seb’s hands back on his neck, let him take away the pain. But, he was terrified that he’d panic. They were new again and he was still so afraid of Seb running away. He wouldn’t blame him.

Sebastian’s POV:

Sebastian had never really cared about Valentine’s Day. What was the point? It was a greeting card holiday and did you really love somebody if you only showed it once a year? It was just straight dudes cramming into grocery stores, grabbing random flowers and whatever chocolates were left in an effort to summon mediocre blow jobs. Women squeezing into lingerie that they didn’t pick out for themselves, couples on Instagram showing off expensive rose petal covered hotel rooms and bubble baths to prove I’m loved I’m loved I’m loved, look at me I matter. 

But of course, Valentine’s Day was something that Blaine liked and had made Sebastian’s bitter view change a little bit. He pointed out the colors and how friends could celebrate together and the heart shaped sweet treats his coffee shop sold. Sebastian gave in (because he would always give in for B) and promised that they would hang out on his next free night after the special day. He made reservations at a nice place in Brooklyn, bought Blaine a bunch (too much) clearance chocolate and red and pink gummies. Blaine had even bought Seb a bouquet which really surprised him and made him grin because it didn’t feel like a forced act.  “I’ve never been given flowers before.” 

They turned on the movie and hardly made it into ‘One Jump Ahead’ before they were kissing and touching. It felt like they were kids again-picking a movie that they knew they wouldn’t pay attention to, kissing on a couch in the blue light of a television screen.  

Seb hadn’t even meant to touch the other man’s neck. He had worked so hard on being gentle and showing his hands all night but he was caught in the moment and his hand just naturally moved to touch the skin showing just above Blaine’s neckline. Sebastian felt Blaine tense up and pull away and his stomach fell all the way to the bottom floor of the apartment building. He blinked  a few times and tried to clear his hazy mind, let Blaine grasp his fingers. Sebastian felt like he was experiencing whiplash, one minute he was unbelievably turned on and the next he was embarrassed and upset with himself. “No, no. I’m sorry. Um...I’m so sorry.”  Sebastian shook his head, “I was caught up. I know better. You didn’t mess anything up. We can stop, start the movie over?” He bit his bottom lip. “We can do whatever you want.” 

In the background, Aladdin jumped off a building and Sebastian felt like doing the same fucking thing.

Blaine’s POV:

Blaine wanted to kick himself for the look on Sebastian’s face. He first looked stricken and then Blaine watched as the slow creep of red inched up his companions neck and into his cheeks. Blaine could all but feel the embarrassment rolling off of Sebastian and again he hated himself for it. He squeezed Seb’s hands between his, trying to show him that he’d done nothing wrong. How could Blaine blame him for getting caught up in the moment. It wasn’t as if he had grabbed him or really even touched him all that much. 

“Don’t be sorry, Seb. You didn’t do anything wrong.” He paused, his eyes searching Seb’s face as he searched for the words he wanted to say, anything to make Sebastian stop looking like a sad kitten. “You have been so patient and sweet while I figure myself out and what I can handle. I love being with you, and I love touching you and kissing you and I-I want to be able to do this without feeling like I’m back with Kurt again because you’re nothing like him. You make me feel so good and I don’t even know why I flinched. And I don’t know why I can’t just go for it...”

His brow furrowed as he spoke and he remembered what he'd told himself over and over when he’d first left Kurt- You are in control of your own body and what happens to it. No one else. If you don’t want to be touched say so… if you do want to be touched then reach out and take it. You’re in control.

Breathe in, breathe out. You’ve got this, Blaine.

“I don’t want to stop. I want you to touch me… so much that it borders on need.”  He shook his head and took a deep steadying breath, knowing that he was taking a risk for himself by doing what he was doing, but he needed to do it. Not only so they could further their relationship, but for himself. He very slowly and tentatively moved both of Sebastian’s hands and placed them back on his shoulders, his breath shallow as he did so. He covered Seb’s hands with his and gently slid them over so they were loosely cupping the back of his neck. He closed his eyes as he let the strange sensation of allowing another person to touch such an intimate (for him) place again wash over him. He swallowed hard before letting himself speak.

“It’s okay. I want you to…” He mumbled, his words sort of trailing off as he let himself experience something that once he enjoyed so much. Seb’s fingers were kind and the tips were cool and welcoming and given time they might drive Blaine wild in old and new ways again. He opened his eyes finally, his head tilting back for Sebastian and his hands slipping from Seb’s to reach up and cup his jaw on each side, his thumb brushing just so as he spoke and titled his chin down towards him. HIs voice a whisper as if he’d scare himself if he talked too loud.

“Kiss me again. Please?”

Sebastian’s POV:

Sebastian nodded and kept a close watch of Blaine’s face, the way he was breathing, the crease in his forehead. He let him move his hands and set them gently on the back of his neck. Sebastian let his hands rest in the spot and smiled a small slowed mouth smile as if to say thank you for trusting me. He never imagined he could be this patient or understanding but Blaine always brought out the best in him it seemed. “I just want you to be comfortable, B but, I want all that, too.” 

He leaned in and gave the other man a small kiss and he concentrated on how his hands were positioned on the back of his neck. Sebastian deepened the kiss slowly, swiped his tongue along his full bottom lip and rubbed his thumb gently against Blaine’s skin, close to the back of his ear. He made sure not to grip him and hoped that his hands felt light and comforting. Sebastian remembered how much Blaine used to love his hands on the back of his neck. How he used to give him comforting squeezes there when they would sit in companionable silence, when they would drive around town in the car, when they would sneak kisses on couches and porches. If Seb had believed in wishing on stars and straw wrappers that would be what he hoped for every time, for them to fall back into how things used to be and for Blaine to glow with confidence again. 

“Can I…?” Sebastian kept one hand on his neck and displayed the other before he placed it on his hip to pull him a little closer. He leaned in for another languid, slow kiss.

Blaine’s POV:

Blaine let himself get lost in the feeling of Sebastian’s thumb on his neck and the slip of his tongue against his. Blaine wanted to tell him that he was always comfortable with him, wanted to tell him that he always had been. He wanted nothing more in this moment to let every single feeling he’d ever had in regards to the other man slip out. He let his lips and hands do the talking though, afraid that speaking might ruin everything. Had he always been this afraid of things he wanted? He couldn’t remember. 

Blaine nerves were on fire and as Seb spoke to him so soft and sweetly, sounding a little bit nervous,-an uncharacteristic sound coming from him, he all but melted into the touch of Seb’s fingers against his hip and the way he tugged him closer like Sebastian himself couldn’t get enough of Blaine. He remembered there many nights of kissing and touching and exploring, he remembered the night they’d gotten to be with each other so intimately and he wondered how long it would take him to get there. He wondered if Seb thought all of this was worth it. But, the way he was kissing Blaine and the way he held him and took the time to show his hands and spoke so tenderly to him he thought he might know the answer.

The build up of Seb’s fingers pressed against his hip and his thumb brushing over Blaine sent a shiver through him and suddenly Blaine felt needy and desperate to be closer. He all but pressed himself to Sebastian’s body, his hands sliding from the home against Seb’s jaw to grasp at his shirt as if he’d float away into the February night if he let go. A low desperate whine left his lips and he wanted all at once to be like his old self so bad. He wanted to slide his hands up Sebastian’s shirt and touch the little dusting of hair that led into his pants. He wanted to pull him into his bed and press him down into the sheets and press into him until Sebastian was just as needy and desperate as he was…

He knew he wasn’t quite ready and that trying it would only hurt him and Sebastian in the process. So he did his best to kiss Seb with everything he had, hoping that his promise that one day, maybe soon, he’d show Sebastian how much he needed and wanted him. How much he missed him. With a low groan- Blaine made himself stop, he leaned forward and pressed his forehead against Seb’s chest, just holding onto him until he could trust himself to speak and when he finally did, his fingers aching from clutching at Seb’s shirt, lips numb with kisses that tasted like breathing- his voice was so low he wasn’t sure if Seb would hear him.

“Thank you.”

Sebastian’s POV:

Sebastian’s breath shuddered when he and Blaine pulled apart. He was hard and his skin felt hot and his brain was dizzy with want.  His lips felt numb and chapped but in a satisfying way and he was sure his pupils were dilated. The other man’s low groan sent a thrill up and down his spine. Seb wanted Blaine so badly and wanting him meant giving him time, which he could do.

He wanted Blaine to lead him into the bedroom and he wanted to undress the other man and press kisses everywhere and show him how special he was. Sebastian wished each kiss and touch and moan would remove a little bit of his self doubt, heal him a little bit. He knew what it was really going to take was time and showing the other man that he could be trusted with his body. 

He ran his hand up and down his back and held him close. He smiled to himself, “Why are you thanking me?” Sebastian let his fingers dance lazily over Blaine’s sweater. “That was fun.” He shifted his body a little bit to alleviate the pressure he felt, think of anything except how warm and heavy Blaine feels against you right now. 

“You okay?”

Blaine’s POV:

Blaine let himself be still for a moment just taking in the feeling of being with Sebastian. Slowly, he let his fingers loosen from his shirt and he lifted his head up to look up at Seb. All at once he was embarrassed and wanted to duck his head back down and hide away. Why had he thanked him out loud? God, how silly he must sound to Sebastian. He bit his bottom lip and gave a little shrug, hoping that he wasn’t blushing too hard.

“For being so sweet and patient with me. I-I know this isn’t super easy for you. I know how much you love being touched and getting to touch  and I know that me being, uh, twitchy isn’t ideal. But, Seb, you’re being so amazing and I feel so very lucky that I get to have you in my life again.” He lifted his hand up and made a shooing motion as if to wave off the feelings of embarrassment. He let himself look into Seb’s eyes, the twinkle of his fairy lights catching the bits of blue that swam in the green and he knew that if he looked long enough he’d lose himself there.

“It was the most fun I’ve had in years…”

How pathetic did he sound? His body ached with the want of it all. He still wanted to take Seb into his room and show him how much he missed him, but the thought still made his heart feel racy and not in just a pleasant way. What if he woke up and forgot that it was Seb in his arms? What if he had a nightmare or an anxiety attack as he was known to do and Sebastian was forced to witness it or felt obligated to try and help him?  He bit his lip harder as he looked up at Seb through his lashes, his eyes wide.

“I don’t want you to leave, Seb.” He swallowed hard, trying to articulate how he was feeling. “I love it when you’re close to me. And I want- I-.” He stumbled, his words tripping over his tongue haphazardly. “I want everything with you, but, I’m still so afraid of being alone in the dark with you and waking up confused and- and- I know I’m not making sense. But, it was in the dark the first time it happened, in bed. I was half asleep... And I’m afraid I’ll wake up and panic. God… what I’m trying to say is that I want to fall asleep with you in my arms tonight and that part I could handle, you’d feel so good in my arms… I want you in my arms, I just don’t know if I’m ready to have you in my bed yet. I feel stuck.”

God he sounded ridiculous. He wouldn’t be surprised if Seb just left. He hoped so hard that he wouldn’t. He looked up at him still as if he’d have all the answers. Was he putting too much on this man? This man that just sort of walked back into his shitshow of a life? Why would Seb want this mess anyway... 

His stomach flipped and knotted and the butterflies that came to life when Seb was around danced in his ribcage as he waited for Seb to speak. 

Sebastian’s POV:

Sebastian shook his head, “B, it’s all good. I’m good.”  He lifted his hand slowly so that the other man could see it and placed it on his thigh. “ We literally have all of the time in the world and I have hands.” Sebastian let a slow, mischievous grin spread over his face. “I’m lucky,too.” He watched Blaine’s face and saw every emotion he felt pass through his golden eyes, through the creases in between his eyebrows. “I’m glad you enjoyed yourself. That’s a pretty big step, yeah?”

Seb couldn’t say he knew how Blaine felt but he did understand that certain things could be a trigger and Blaine certainly didn’t have to defend what upset him. Plus, how many times had he himself woke up in a strange place next to some person he didn’t recognize, the sudden ice cold panic that would rise up his lungs until his brain reminded him he had stumbled here after a party. Seb thought that it was probably a little like that feeling, only a thousand times worse. He nodded, “The two of us can squish together on the couch, like old times.” He raised an eyebrow and hoped the mention of a memory would make the other man smile. “I’m growing rather fond of this couch, you know.” Sebastian turned and fluffed an overstuffed cushion for comedic effect. “We can leave the lights on. I fall asleep with the TV on almost every night, anyway.”

The two of them sat and talked for a few more hours, snuggled into the comfy, old couch. Blaine grabbed a couple of blankets and pillows off of his bed and the two of them wrapped their bodies up and clung to each other, their noses almost touching, as they fell asleep under the glow of white christmas lights. Sebastian in Blaine’s arms and Blaine in Sebastian’s.

Congratulations, COURT! You’ve been accepted for the role of EDMUND. Admin Rosey: The minute we heard Easton’s voice, we couldn’t get enough of it. There was a certain cadence to it, a bite, a cleverness and a dry wit that we fell head over heels for. It’s very difficult to capture that kind of freshness and Court, you managed to do that completely effortlessly. And the plots that you have in mind for him? Make it all the more enticing because we simply don’t know which way he might go! Regardless, though, we know that he will step on each and every one of our hearts. Be merciful with us, won’t you? Please read over the checklist and send in your blog within 24 hours.

WELCOME TO THE MOB.

OUT OF CHARACTER

Alias | Court

Age | 27

Preferred Pronouns | She/Her

Activity Level | I would say that I will be around a 5-6/10 on average. My schedule does fluctuate because of my job, but right now I am in summer and will not be working much, so I have a lot more free time. In the fall, that will change, but is something I can handle when we get there! I am definitely an eager RPer, though, and am quick to respond/write. :)

Timezone | EST

How did you find the rp?  | Just searching around on Tumblr!

Current/Past RP Accounts | I have RP’d before, but it was a while ago (like, 7 or so years ago), so I don’t currently have access to any of my old accounts, unfortunately. :(

IN CHARACTER

Character | Edmund, a.k.a Easton Craven

What drew you to this character? | So, I’m most drawn to Easton because, actually, I am a high school literature teacher! King Lear is one of my all time favorite plays (I read it every year), and I’ve always been intrigued by Edmund’s character. I am really excited at the prospect of exploring the inner complexities that come with Edmund’s OG plotline/psyche. I feel like Edmund is a “side” character that could be his own show, and pretty much immediately knew that I would love to play a portrayal of him! (Plus, it doesn’t hurt that he’s on the most wanted list!)

What is a future plot idea you have in mind for the character? | I’m not sure if you want these to be connected; I’m just going to give three ideas of where I could see Easton’s character going in the future, if that works:

Power Play: I would love to see Easton get the power that he so desperately craves. I think that would end up being devastating (in the best way) because then he would be required to face the wall that he has put up in response to the rejection of his family. I see Easton making connections and climbing up the ladder, but then getting to the top and realizing that revenge isn’t what he needed in order to feel valid. (Or it is, and he continues to be a great villain!!)

Traitor: I can also see Easton going a “double agent” route. It’s clear that Easton will do anything to gain power and get revenge for the way he has been treated; because of his affinity for collecting secrets, I think Easton would make a great rogue agent that continually attempts to grab at power and, eventually attempt to crumble everything.

Idyllic Soldier: Given the right character/person, I think Easton could end up truly 180-ing from his plan of revenge. His actions and attitude are all based on rejection; if the right relationship came onto his path, I think that Edmund could straighten out for a particular cause that is not his own. That could manifest as becoming fully loyal to the Capulets and feeling satisfied by their structure and protection, or could have him leaving them in order to follow someone who shows him the support and reverence he clearly craves. Either way, I think that Easton is not truly self-serving, but shows signs of being a great and loyal follower if given the right emotional outlet.

Are you comfortable with killing off your character? | Yeah, I would be down for killing off Easton!

In-Character Interview:

What is your favorite place in Verona?

He glanced up from the coffee he was stirring and flashed a cheeky smirk. “The Dark Lady,” he replied, maintaining direct eye contact as he brought the steaming beverage to his lips. His admission was true, though not for the reasons anyone would expect. He knew that most people thought of him as nothing – someone who’s favorite place was The Dark Lady just because of the gambling and booze. He felt the warm liquid pour down his throat as he watched the interviewer’s eyes widen from recognition. “What can I say? This face is popular amongst women, and I am always happy to oblige.” He licked the coffee off of his lips and dared a quick wink toward the interviewer. Better that she think of him as a pig than know the truth. The Dark Lady is where secrets are kept, and he now knew how powerful secrets could be.  

What does your typical day look like?

Before he could stop himself, Easton let out a dark chuckle. “Well, let’s see,” he mused aloud. “Honestly? I’m a bitch boy.” He took particular interest in the non-existent dirt under his fingernails as he considered how to proceed with his answer. “I spend most of my time doing what others command me to do. Sure, I get to boss some low-lives around. But at the end of the day, shit always rolls downhill. That’s what happens when you allow others to control you, to have power over you.” He looked up at the interviewer to see her furiously taking notes, and mentally reminded himself to keep it together. He could not show her his true intentions.

What has been your biggest mistake thus far?

“Devotion,” he responded immediately, his lip curling in disgust. He would not speak of this to anyone, but he knew what the question had surfaced. His devotion to his “family” had been his greatest weakness, and that mistake would not be made again. He knew better, now, than to think anyone would help him but himself. Because of his father’s betrayal, he would become one of the most powerful men in Verona. He would see the whole world burn before ever admitting defeat to his blood. He was coming for them, his perfect brother Everett, too. He would make them sorry for ever double crossing him. “But don’t you worry, sweetheart,” he added, his tone dripping in faux sweetness, “I don’t make the same mistake twice”.

What has been the most difficult task asked of you?

“This interview,” he mumbled, staring into his swirling coffee. He looked up at the interviewer and let out a sigh. “Nothing is that difficult, if you’re capable.” He thought about the people in his command. He thought, even, about those that gave him direction. A sense of anger bubbled up at his position; he should be commanding everyone. It was disgraceful that he was so low ranking that he dealt with imbeciles most of the time. Soon, they would all be answering to him. “Upon reflection, the most difficult task I have faced is dealing with morons who don’t know what’s good for them.”

What are your thoughts on the war between the Capulets and the Montagues?

Easton rolled his eyes. “Semantics,” he responded with a wave of his hand. “Of course, in a war, it pays to know where to place your bets.” He needed to be careful, because he had loyalties he had to maintain. If he made the wrong comment and it got back to the right people, his plan would be squashed before the fun truly started. “As for me, I have respect for anyone who stands their ground. May the best family win,” he added, raising his coffee cup in salute. In the end, the only winner remaining would be himself.

THE POSITIVE & NEGATIVE; Mun & Muse - Meme.

fill out & repost ♥ This meme definitely favors canons more, but I hope OC’s still can make it somehow work with their own lore, and lil’ fandom of friends & mutuals. Multi-Muses pick the muse you are the most invested in atm.

My muse is:   canon / oc / au / canon-divergent / fandomless /

Is your character popular in the fandom?  YES / NO.

Is your character considered hot™ in the fandom?  YES / NO / IDK.

Is your character considered strong in the fandom?  YES / NO / IDK.

Are they underrated?  YES / NO.

Were they relevant for the main story?  YES / NO.

Were they relevant for the main character?  YES / NO / THEY’RE THE PROTAG.

Are they widely known in their world?  YES / NO.

How’s their reputation?  GOOD / BAD / NEUTRAL.

How strictly do you follow canon?  As closely as I can! I admit to some gaping holes in my knowledge -- I never really read all of the Fullbringer arc or the Thousand Year Blood War. I think I have the gist of some of the novels; some I lean into more than others. But I try to stay true to the Urahara Kisuke of the Bleach manga, and borrow from the anime, movies, and novels when it’s fun!

SELL YOUR MUSE! Aka try to list everything, which makes your muse interesting in your opinion to make them spicy for your mutuals.   Urahara Kisuke plays the part of the humble (and handsome!) shopkeeper of Karakura town, though his résumé includes head of secret police and prison warden, Gotei 13 captain, scientist, and Special War Power. He is talented in problem-solving, psychology and tactical thinking, and despite his protests to the contrary, he’s always scheming something. In addition to his mental prowess, he is an expert swordsman, hakuda master, and a proficient kidou user. A consummate tinkerer, inventor, and maker, his favorite thing to make is mischief, and he will bend the rules and push his luck as far as he can, much to the chagrin of his associates. But he means well, usually.

Now the OPPOSITE, list everything why your muse could not be so interesting (even if you may not agree, what does the fandom perhaps think?).  Move along folks, nothing to see here. These days he’s just a simple candy store owner... You’re not buying that? ---Well, the truth is that he is a bit of a home-body. Never mind what you’ve heard about him turning up when you least expect him; he’s more likely to remain backstage than at the heart of the action. And he knows more than he’s telling; you can never get a straight answer out of him, and it’s maddening. You won’t get anywhere interacting with him, I promise. Complete waste of time.

What inspired you to rp your muse?  When I was new to Bleach, tumblr, and roleplay, I settled on Kisuke because he seemed so... avuncular. He’s not quite responsible enough to be your dad, but he cares like your dad (and sometimes more). He’s full of pranks and sage advice, and you’re never certain which you’ll get, or some combination thereof. He runs the gamut from nutty uncle to creepy godfather, and I’ve found him to be an incredibly versatile character to play.

What keeps your inspiration going?  He still fascinates me.

Some more personal questions for the mun.

Give your mutuals some insight about the way you are in some matters, which could lead them to get more comfortable with you or perhaps not.

Do you think you give your character justice?  YES / NO.

Do you frequently write headcanons?  YES / NO. (I’m more likely to write meta! For me, the line can blur -- but I rarely come up with a headcanon that isn’t in some way supported by canon.)

Do you sometimes write drabbles?  YES / NO. (very occasionally!)

Do you think a lot about your Muse during the day?  YES / NO. (You know, it’s funny. When I first started roleplaying Kisuke, I thought about him constantly, almost to the point of method acting. These days, I’m relieved to have my own headspace back.)

Are you confident in your portrayal?   YES / NO.

Are you confident in your writing?  YES / NO.

Are you a sensitive person?  YES / NO.

Do you accept criticism well about your portrayal?  I’d like to think I’d be big enough to accept some well-meant constructive criticism, and I do like to have outright mistakes corrected. I mean -- it’s not a good feeling, and I’m usually embarrassed -- but I’ll be grateful if they’re pointed out sooner rather than later, and especially if you’re kind about it! Just please remember that in order for it to be constructive, criticism must be specific and positive -- tell me what to do, not what not to do.

Do you like questions which help you explore your character?  Sure! ....I may not answer them right away... or... ever... Anything that makes me stop and think risks sending me off onto a research and reflection tangent from which I may never return! But I will appreciate the question!

If someone disagrees to a headcanon of yours, do you want to know why?  Yes! Why? WHY do you disagree with my headcanon? Do you know something I don’t? Spit it out, because I have to know what you do! (And then if we have the same knowledge and still disagree on the interpretation, I’ll probably stick with mine, but I’ll at least consider yours.)

If someone disagrees with your portrayal, how would you take it?  Disagrees with my --- what does that mean? I like to think I’d be reasonable if someone thought I wrote something out-of-character, and brought it my attention. Hey, it happens, and goodness knows I’m not always ‘on.’  I don’t mind being questioned or corrected about that. But if someone disagrees with entire aspects of my interpretation --- go... write your own version, then? Or find someone else who’s more your cup of tea? There are as many interpretations of a character as there are people. I like seeing them all, and I would be interested to see yours!  I’m not offended that you don’t like mine. (But I will be hurt if you decide you don’t like me because of it; this is fiction and that’s just petty.)

If someone really hates your character, how do you take it?  I mean... there are reasons to hate him. If you tell me yours, I’ll probably be sympathetic. He’s a (bad) liar; he can be ruthless; he’s got an awful track record of using child soldiers and crossing consent boundaries with women -- and you’re allowed to hate him for that or any number of other things. I like him in spite of himself, though, so that won’t change. (Just don’t hate on me because I write him, because again, this is fiction, and that’s just petty.)

Are you okay with people pointing out your grammatical errors? Yes, please tell me right away so that I can correct them before too many people see them and I embarrass myself!

Do you think you are easy going as a mun?   Well... more than I used to be. I think I’m friendly and easy to get along with, and very difficult to offend, and I’m almost never neurotic about roleplay anymore! Haha! I won’t pester you to reply (certainly not when it can take me anywhere between a day and several months). ...I can be a bit of a perfectionist sometimes, and I’m my own worst critic. I don’t go around correcting other peoples’ grammar anymore, though, because I realized... this is fiction, and that’s just petty.

That’s about it, congrats for filling out!
