About Me
Now How About You
- ooc I love chatting and making friends with my partners, even if it's just to plot ahead and chat about our character relationships. I have 101 otp prompts to send you and at least 12 ideas for things to happen in the future. however, I'm extremely shy, so I have a hard time contacting people after the initial discussion tapers off. you are always welcome to pop into my inbox to complain about real life, send me pet pics, share ideas, etc. I really appreciate being let know from the get go whether I'm welcome to do the same or whether you prefer to keep things more professional and related to our writing.
- style I write in third person with full paragraphs. They're not always correctly broken up when it comes to dialogue, but this is something I can do if asked
- literacy my ooc tends to be uncapitalized and spelled wrong because I'm on my phone or typing too fast, but my posts will have correct grammar, spelling, etc. my most common mistakes are omitting words here and there as my fingers don't always keep up with my mind
- length 200-1000 words per post, most comfortable in the 200-600 range. I do not have interest in writing less than that, and longer replies will take longer to write. my post lengths fluctuate. I will not hold myself to a certain word every single post, but you can be assured you will be given enough to respond to. I'm just not interested in filling an action post full of fluff just to hit 500 words
- frequency my posting frequency also fluctuates. If you want someone who can reply every single day, I'm not your gal. I'm currently in my senior year of college, have 14 pets to care for, and three part time jobs. Writing is basically my only hobby though, so at the very least you can expect replies once a week, and a lot of the times more frequently than that. especially if it's one of my favorites
- Dom/Sub BIG pet peeve here. Unless we're planning on something involving BDSM this is NOT APPLICABLE. if your one x one request says "I only write subs" you can turn around right here. I write people with personalities that are not defined by their preferences in the bedroom and I expect the same in return. some of my characters like to top and some of them refuse to do anything but and some of them prefer to bottom and most of them are versatile. unless there's a reason for a character always topping, it's not gonna happen with me.
That being said, in plots that do involve BDSM, I do prefer to write the sub. But that doesn't mean my doms fall flat or are one-note. They're as detailed as my other characters, although sometimes a little unconventional.
- characters I take pride in my characters, most of my muse goes there instead of into well developed plots. I'd like to think they're well developed and realistic, and you will see character development throughout our writing. They have friends, families, pets... even though my character sheets are pretty bare. However, I'm pretty particular that they stay in character. I will not write my character doing or saying something just to make them fit better with your character or to move the plot in a certain way. it may be helpful to discuss the characters we'd like to use before starting to make sure they fit well together. Please express concerns you have about plot or character interactions before we start or soon after they come up so we can get them sorted out!
- new characters typically I like to use pre-existing characters for realistic plots and have a wide variety of them, but I also do not have a problem making a new character to fit a plot.
- passive vs active this is something I've only recently come across. If you're looking for someone to constantly drive the plot forward for you or to tell you what to do with your character to move things forward, don't look at me. I prefer there to be equal effort from both parties. One post from you may have a whole bunch going on and my character can only respond without moving things forward very far, while the same thing might happen in reverse two pages later and that's fine. typically I write a post in response then advance format, which is basically what I expect in return.
- coding sometimes I like to color-code my character's speech but that's about all you're going to get out of me. character sheets and threads are pretty basic.
- communication is important. have a problem? let me know. need me to tag something on to the end of my post/I didn't give you enough to respond to? ask me to expand. need me to accommodate you in some way (post color, size, etc)? ask!! Need me to clarify something? ask!! we're all adults, yeah? writing with someone shouldn't be stressful. I will communicate my absences and you should too
- writing sample I don't think my writing on the forums properly reflects my roleplaying ability on this site yet, but you can have a look at my writing storage thread: music to watch boys to
- this blue is my favorite color
Now How About You
- age if we are going to write together, I need you to be over 18, no exceptions. I take it as your message being a statement that you are, and if I find otherwise, I will decline. It's a bit uncomfortable, especially when it comes to explicit writing, which most, if not all, of my roleplays will contain
- length I expect a similar posting length as mine, and my length will typically mirror yours, although sometimes I get stuck around the 500-700 words range when writing lengthier replies. I do prefer long, well thought out replies and will gravitate to partners also writing 300+ words.
- literacy I need you to spell correctly and have basic grammar skills, I will quickly lose interest if posts are full of mistakes. some varied sentence structure would be nice. know the difference between things like you're and your, peaked and piqued, phased and fazed
- formatting I don't expect much coding or anything, all I ask is that you use paragraph breaks (I don't like posts that are just one big chunk). also, please be considerate of those that use another site format as you; if I can't read whatever color you're writing in, I will let you know. My eyes are bad enough as it is
- frequency I don't need you to be a super frequent poster to keep me happy. Once a week? Once every other week? Sounds great. less than that is a bit iffy, I may begin to lose interest.
- patience I do ask that you be patience with me. I am an A student so I devote a lot of time to studying, and my pets take a lot of work as well. Mental health is also an issue, and I may not always answer messages or may only answer them once a day (another reason why discord is better to get ahold of me. I'm on discord always, even if I'm not browsing my roleplaying sites. I also have other projects, such as characters and coding and personal writing pieces. I do tend to let everyone know if it's going to be longer than a weeks wait
another thing: I do not like being called out for posting for other people more frequently. everyone is allowed their favorites, and my muse may be particular. I won't mind when you post for other people more frequently, and I expect the same courtesy. I don't mind a nudge here or there if its done respectfully, especially if its been more than a couple weeks because I do have a tendency to get scatterbrained, but don't be rude about it
- ghosting you know yourself. If you know you have a tendency to be too shy to send a message saying you would prefer to drop a roleplay DO NOT message me. sorry not sorry. It's rude, plain and simple. we're adults, you won't find any hard feelings or rudeness from me if youre a halfway polite person.
- LONGTERM likewise, if you've never had a roleplay last more than 5 pages before your life gets in the way or you lose interest, DO NOT message me. sorrynotsorry. I'm in it for the longterm, developing character relationships, seeing this through to all the juicy plot points we've come up with. I have had roleplays reach twenty-some pages and they're still going, and I have picked one x ones back up five years later after calling out of contact and eventually reconnecting with partners. This does not mean you must always post frequently and never take a break. Just let me know what's going on, as long as you're still interested, I'm willing to wait
- initial messageI do ask that you just send a message on discord or through messages instead of posting here, and it would be great if you could include a bit about you, or a link to your search thread, as well as the plots or themes you're interested in
