PSA:

You don’t have to be nice to my character. You don’t have to hold your character back. I am perfectly okay with consequences. I don’t consider powerful characters using those powers to be godmodding. Some things might require a little bit of a chat before hand, but go crazy, kids. Conflict is part of story telling. 

One of my favorite things is when a character does or says something nice and they’re like “don’t tell anyone about this, I have a reputation” it’s so funny they’re literally like I’m okay with being nice but I draw the line at other people knowing that I’m nice

Thinking about characters changing their names.. characters changing their names to run from the past or to reclaim their selfhood or to deny something. Characters who don't remember their names. Characters who can't forget. Etc. And yes of course because they're transgender

Things have improved a bit on my end enough that I'm really missing the activity but now I'm feeling awkward about wanting to refollow people :')

agh. I truly wish I had more consistent energy levels.

Hey y'all, I've got to give a quick more OOC-focused update. A month or so ago I went through a huge energy crash I'm still kinda recovering from due to spreading myself too thin trying to keep up with too many things and do too many things at once.

I'm going to try to have a presence here again but I think I'm going to have to unfollow blogs that don't form a core relationship for my OCs because I simply don't have the energy to keep up with that much these days. Please don't read anything personal into it, I am just exhausted and have been at my limit for too long and I need my RP dash to be one I can easily catch up on in a few minutes.

Thanks!

Added a list of blogs to the pinned post. Going to work on reorganizing and redoing pages over the next few days.

It's my birthday! 🥳

I've been gradually getting braver with reaching out to people after a very long period of keeping to myself and a very small number of people and I just want to thank everyone I've talked to for being SO cool. 🫶

I'm always going to lament not having the energy to keep up with more but I'm really happy for the things I do get to be a part of. There's so much creativity in the RPC and I enjoy getting to see it even when I don't have much more than scrolling and tapping hearts in me.

i don't care how 'cringe' or 'mary sue' you think your oc is. i think your oc is cool and i think you should talk about your oc more.

this applies to everyone
