Introduction To The Writer
Keeping this thread mostly short and less than sweet. I'm DoomsDay or any variant, I use to roleplay a lot and stopped for a while. Lately, I have needed a creative outlet to escape from the perils of the real world. I am female, twenty five, full time worker, and second year college student. My work and education are my current priority, coming before all else, but I like to have fun in between.
Style
Third-person, multi-paragraphs to more, and literate with occasional grammar mistakes and run-ons. An average of 500 word posts, more or less when fitting; you can catch me producing up to 1000 word counts when it matters, however, I find lower counts helps to move the story and give everyone a chance to add to the story in their own unique way. A darkly inclined, subtly sensuous poetic way of writing with all the nitty gritty. I am a slow poster, may take over a week for a response which I will make clear when it happens. The longer the wait, the more detailed and long my post will be. However, I aim for once day posting.
Parings
Looking for FxM main mostly, can do a FxF, and sides/one offs of MxM. Most characters I write are bisexual or exploring which can be introduce in the story in fun ways.
Characters
Multiple characters throughout the story to add substance, world development, and overall entertainment. At least one female main lead played by myself to a male lead played by a partner. Characters vary by story, they are multifaceted and dynamic.
Erotic
I adore erotic story telling and detailed sex scenes, I am looking to play out many erotic fantasy and some smutty scenarios. However, I am not looking to write pornography or play out highly fetish roleplays; I look for entertainment value overall in my stories. I write sensually not always to lead to sex but to create a haughty atmosphere and yearning for more. The amount and detail of sex scenes and other will be dependent on the characters as well. I typically treat smut as carefully place sprinkles appropriate to the space. Further discussion of sexual desires can be discussed through PM.

Partner Preferences
The ability to average 400 word counts and produce more in detail needed scenarios. A third person point of view. A lover of darker writing, someone not afraid to witness something grotesque. And of course someone who overtly enjoys eroticism and smut scenes. Be a person with ideas and desires all your own, willing to contribute to the development and movement of the story, albeit these things tend to come naturally as writers, sometimes we can get caught in the motions which is no fun to a partner.

Story Building Preferences
My desires for settings, worlds, storyline, characters, and anything else that pertains to such matters.
Styles
I love writing that is haunting and romantic, and can fit within theme of the story. Though everyone distinctive in their own right. I also love reading everyone's own unique take of the material and how they choose to handle it.
Characters
Strong focus on characters and their development. I like to explore and pair characters of multiple backgrounds, personalities, and moral compasses. I hate black and white characters who are overall society's idea of "good", I would like to see more morally grey character's who have personal reason behind their actions, regrettable or not. Development goes both ways too, negative or positive, better or worse for them or others.
Relationships
An expressed interest in complicated relationships between damaged or vulnerable characters. Where they can bring out the best or the worst in each other through various ways. A general sense of obsession between them expressed in various ways and scenes. The main character's relationships being the focused, however other relationships can be explore through the main characters or through side/second mains (ex: a character(s) is of a promiscuous nature and will have a few relationships/flings before the main pair truly connects).
World
Not all my settings will be apocalyptic, but I do enjoy dastardly, abysmal, and catastrophic; I like my worlds on the brink of disaster, amidst of dystopia, or far past misadventure. A sense of bleakness and past world gone trickled through the writing. Regardless if it is set in catastrophe or not, I enjoy writing that is shadowed by moral ambiguity and realism, heroes are imperfects and characters as lost we are. Survival is at stake, from just trying to make it to the next check to avoiding getting murdered, but all of this is just another Monday in my preferred worlds.
Storylines
Plots and Ideas that take inspiration from genres as well as various media. Each story has more than meets the eye, includes more than one genre, pairing suggestions, and is up to discussion and subject to change. So, be sure to ask whatever you want about them! At least one main character relationship it a must, however, will not necessarily be the focus of the story, nor impact the plot; I'm looking to write intricate world builds and detailed multi-character developments for most of these stories, a few romantic relationships for mains and secondary characters are often subplots and cherries on top.
Sci/fi - Post apocalyptic - Fallout Inspired

All the genres and subgenres I highly recommend that I provide a little detail for. All genres can easily tie within each other, I often mix quite a few into my stories, but for simplicity's sake I kept them separated for better interpretation.
Action
When the characters must overtake scenarios full of violence, involving fighting and impressive physical feats. Epic battles of tragic war to sleazy underground fight clubs. Weaponry of all types can be used including the body itself.
Adventure
When characters take on the endeavors of chronicle journeys, both literally and figuratively, inspired by something like a mission or goal. It can be an adventure that takes them across the country to save the world, or a small walk around the block to get to a drug store.
Apocalypse
Subgenres: Pre –- Post – Far Post – Disaster – Virus – Zombie – Nuclear – Dystopian – Cyber
A world that deals with the current or aftermath of a particularly dire event that leaves only a few alive. Deals with the often-bleak exploration of a similar world made new due to catastrophic events, as well as how characters are or have adapted. Greatly explores characters trying to survive one way or another.
Cyberpunk
Low-life and High-tech world, that has been dehumanized through extreme technological advancements to such an extent that peoples only solace is crime, sex, drugs, virtual worlds, and body mods. Typically, in a dystopian type setting; in which mega-corporations' rule through rampant classism and corrupted governments. Cybernetics are the new wave, AI the lifestyle. Stories often follow the journeys of anti-heroes that are against all odds, and how they interact with the world around them.
Drama
Subgenres: Tragedy – Black comedy - War
A genre that evokes emotion through a series of unexpected, slightly exaggerated, or overtly emotional scenarios. Typically, this is demonstrated through the harrowing actions, dialogue, or experiences of the characters in somewhat theatrical performative scenes.
Fantasy
Sub genres: Epic – High – Low – Urban – Medieval –Dark – Magical Realism - Legend
Fiction that involves a degree of magical portion, in a fictional or nonfiction universe, following characters of unnatural or unreal species. Typically, this genre Is inspired by real world mythology, folklore, certain authors, or books, or even religion. But practical, personal, imaginative adjustments can be made for completely new worlds.
Grimdark
Fiction that has verse or prose in a particularly grim, amoral, or violent style, tone, or setting. This genre rejects most traditional fictions style of uplifting or positive idealizations of worlds and characters, instead focusing on dishonorable and dark life and people in a fiction or nonfiction world can be.
Hopepunk
(Opposite of Grimdark but creates an interesting combination)
Assumes punk idealisms and focus on honorable actions or worlds that make something worth fighting. Characters are typically faced with some sort of immoral challenge – corrupt government, dystopian world, moral failings of people around them, themselves, et cetera – and they fight or pull for positive change, radical kindness, and hopefully takes on challenges.
Horror
Psychologic – Thriller – Slasher – Gothic Fiction – Survival - Paranormal
This genre focuses on inducing ill feelings of fear, worry, shock, terror, suspense, or disgust out of the reader, through its earie atmosphere through frightful environments. It often has transgressive themes or topics and explores darker subject matter to get the desired response. It sometimes entails leaving a psychological impact of disturbance or fright.
Romance/Romanticism
Subgenres: Dark – Gothic – Paranormal
Often used as a subplot itself, romance can be a single element or focused of a story. This genre conveys stories of love, one true or birthed from obsession, and showcases activities, feelings, service, other romantic love scenes. Romance will present itself through emotionally satisfying scenes, and possess an atmosphere imbued with some form of desire. Romanticism uses idealism to explore characters emotions and individualism. Emotions and feelings are often used to emphasize a aesthetic experience for the viewers.
Dark Romanticism
A reflection of the romance genre, however, instills the morbid fascination of the macabre, demonic, and grotesque into the story. Dark Romanticism can be driven by darker emotions, such as obsession and hurt, which suggests a shadowy atmosphere with melancholic tendencies. It also examines the idealistic tendencies of humans, and how they can never have perfection.
Sci-Fi
A genre that deals with futuristic concepts, though can be in anytime setting. Deals with realistic or imaginary concepts of science and technology. Touches on concepts such as advance sciences, parallel universes, space travel, and alien life forms. Typically, is inspired by science instead of holding true.
Supernatural
Connected genre: weird fiction.
A genre that has undertones of horror and fantasy, with a grim atmosphere. Introduces fantastical creatures of different species and extension of those races - like vampires, werewolves, zombies, ghost, demons, angels, et cetera – into a world where they are not considered normal by the human populace; they are things that often feared or creatures of legends, only few people believe, experience, and or seek them out. The genre also often explores spiritualism and different forms of magic and the occult. Supernatural can also dip into Weird fiction, when stereotypical fantastical creatures are reinterpreted (Ex: H.P Lovecraft).
