Just because I start another thread with someone playing the same character as you, doesn’t mean that I hate you, I’m getting annoyed by you, or I’m bored with you; I’m most likely in a different scene, and nothing I send you both will be the same.
Just because I take a while to reply to you, but not others, doesn’t mean I’m ignoring you; My muse is picky, and I can only write what I’m drawn to. I want my replies to be well written and fun, not forced and horrible
Just because I shorten a reply doesn’t mean I’m bored with the thread; I’m probably tired, thinking of something else to continue with, or giving you the chance to set up our next situation.
Just because I drop a thread doesn’t mean I will never come back to start another; When I drop threads, I’m usually overwhelmed, without a muse for that particular piece, or bored with it, and I’ll ask to start another.
Don’t assume because I’m picky/tired/museless, I’m not happy with you.
and not just because it’s really amazing to see what other muses say, think and feel about your muse when they’re not around but because I WANT SOME CONTINUITY. i am trying to create a continuity for my character where everything that isn’t an AU has feelings and actions making sense depending on a timeline and people they know and love. actions have consequences. relationships and events change people.
roleplay without that is… well, repetitive… & not very fulfilling to me.
im so tired with the few people in this fandom that find it necessary to be total jackasses to people who don’t agree with you. it’s easy to make a point without have to lowkey shade others in the fandom and make them feel like shit. why is it that every fandom has to take something intended to be a SAFE SPACE for everyone and fucking hurt everyone instead. this isn’t just about one isolated incident, but many different ones. i’m so tired of people fostering hate.
I WANT YOU ALL TO KNOW THAT I LOVE YOU, AND APPRECIATE YOU, and if any of you ever feel unsafe, just know that I AM HERE FOR YOU.
TLDR; I LOVE YOU ALL BUT STOP BEING ASSHOLES AND PICKING ON PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY & IF YOU THINK THIS IS AIMED AT YOU THEN MAYBE JUST MAYBE YOU SHOULD STOP FOR A MINUTE AND REFLECT ON HOW YOU’RE TREATING PEOPLE.
As someone who is poly, there is very little representation of my relationship structure in media/RP, and that’s sort of frustrating. I would like to find more people to rp this type of relationship with.
I like to know my writing partner. This isn’t always necessary, and if you’re not the sort of person who tries to get chummy with their roleplaying buddies, that’s absolutely fine, but in my experience, the plots and characters that last the longest are the ones with the players that I can message at 3 in the morning with an idea without feeling like I’m bothering them.
i am in NO way affiliated with Lindsey Morgan, the CW network,nor the rest of the cast & crew of ‘the 100.’ this blog’s purpose is solely for my own enjoyment & no copyright infringement is ever intended. all icons seen on this blog were created by me & are NOT for anyone’s use other than my own, without permission. that being said, i am not against making icons for others & would actually be more than happy to make them for you, & if you message me with icon requests, i will make them & customize them for you.
independent. semi-selective.
this is a & semi-selective independent roleplay blog, which means that most of my interactions will take place with those that i am in a mutual follow with — meaning that i am following you & you are following me.. i am always open to new people to write with though, so if you're interested in writing or plotting with me, just throw me a message and we can certainly discuss doing something. that being said, sometimes i will come across characters i may not know and thus might not be interested in writing with. please don’t take this personally — it is never a reflection of you or your blog, but rather what i’m comfortable with at any given moment.
following.
i’m a fairly selective follower — i won’t always follow everyone back. i prefer a clean & organized dash, & i prefer to follow those that i believe could help me grow as a writer & encourage growth of my character, as well as those that i enjoy seeing on my dashboard. once again, this isn’t meant as anything personal. it doesn’t mean that i don’t like you or your muse. it’s just a way of keeping things tidy. (& please give me some time to follow you back. it sometimes take me a few days to see that i’ve gotten any new followers! if you want me to follow you, you can always throw a message my way and i'll totally check out your page)
triggers & nsfw.
due to the nature of the show, there will be some triggering content featured on this blog in written and/or visual form. i will do my very best to tag everything appropriately. (though i will most likely not be tagging blood except for pictures that i see fit, as a large portion of my icons do contain blood, dirt, & grime given the scenes on the show.) if i’ve missed anything or i’m not tagging something that you’d like me to, please let me know! as for nsfw content, i will be tagging both written & visual forms. i’m over the age of 18 so smut will likely occur, though it’s may not occur with any consistent frequency. i will NOT write smut with anyone below the age of 18 under any circumstances, so don't ask.
canons & au's.
the main verse of this blog will follow the canon storyline at all points, as i am currently up to date with the show & plan to continue to watch it. i am always open to AUs & crossovers, as well as threads pre-the 100 storyline, which will be expanded upon on my verses page. (i'm familiar with many fandoms & if there's something on the internet for me to read about your fandom, i'm usually more than willing to do so.) i also tend to go by this rule: if i am starting the interaction without previous plotting, the interaction will be in my character's universe. if you are starting the interaction, the interaction will be in your character's universe. of course, there are exceptions to every rule but this is one that i prefer to stick by, as it reduces the confusion. but my ask is always open if you're interested in plotting a new verse!!!
replies & formatting.
i'm an admittedly slow replier (like… super slow at times), & my muse occasionaly doesn’t want to cooperate with me. there are some days where i can reply immediately, & others were it could take me hours to write a single sentence. if you're looking for someone who can consistently turn out fast replies, i'm not your girl. sorry. & please do not rush me for replies. a gentle reminder once or twice is okay & often encouraged, but pestering me is a sure way to kill my muse -- &, to be honest, i'll probably make you wait longer out of spite. (◕‿◕✿)
as far as formatting goes, it varies depending on my mood. sometimes i'll go out of my way to format things elaborately, & other times i simply can't be bothered. i do, however, prefer to use icons over gifs. but when roleplaying with me, use whatever you're comfortable with, so never worry about your formatting or gif/icon use, I will love you all the same! the quality is what's important.
shipping.
this blog will NOT just revolve around romantic relationships. while i'm sure they will occur a lot over the course of this blog, i'm not here for the sole purpose of shipping. i'd like to develop Raven and her other relationships -- familial, platonic, & otherwise. & while i do have my preferred pairings, that does NOT mean that i will ship Raven with the first of that muse to come around, nor will I only exlusively ship with those characters. in the end, chemistry is key in all ships -- if it's not there, i won't ship it & if it is, i will.
i will be playing Raven’s sexuality as bisexual (with a preference towards women). if you have any issues with that, feel free to ask me about it, or even unfollow if you feel the need.
the mun.
i’m not mean or anything, i promise. one of my favorite parts of roleplaying, is the opportunity it gives me to expand my horizons, and meet new people & when it comes down to it, it’s the most important part of this for me. so never be afraid to throw me a message out of character or to ask for my kik or skype!! thank you for reading the guidelines, and i look forward to roleplaying with you all!!!
