going from playing a golden retriever spider-man-esque kinda dude whose arc was a quarter jesus retelling, a quarter redemption arc, a quarter hero's journey deconstruction, and a quarter coming-of-age story to writing a lawful evil merchant prince who craves power while simultaneously being both book!howl and book!kaz brekker, and now to writing a shapeshifting terrorist extremist certainly is a pipeline i did not expect to have 4 years ago

i havent opened genshin impact in almost a year but god clorinde is gonna make my gay ass redownload, god.

the way i was planning on posting for all my owed today and then the outlet i plug my laptop charger into explodes

the universe hates the idea of me getting caught up, doesn't it

i caved and watched the recently released episodes of 97, finished ep 5, and man. me too. me too.

cannot express how tempted i am to watch the entire xmen animated series all thanks to everyone's reactions to xmen 97

THATS INCREDIBLE congrats on winning your first 50/50!!!!

i feel you though my 50/50 character luck when i was an active genshin player was straight up atrocious. legitimately funny how much that turned around in hsr.

that said, manifesting him for you!! godspeed, his kit + character + backstory are soooo good, man. i hope you're able to grab him!

holy shit




first image was within 20 pulls, 0 pity, first guarantee, second image within 50, 0 pity, 50/50. i am so used to giving and now here i am RECEIVING

i cant even be mad that like 10 minutes after i built him my supervisor told me last minute i needed to make a report presentation for tomorrow

one hour before aventurine myriad celestia....

update, 2 hours later: i'm a damn fool who got my dates wrong.

hot take: do it anyway. be hyper. be excited. be speedy. be overwhelming. jump right in. i guarantee you 9 times out of 10 other people bounce off energy given, and enthusiasm without apology does wonders in lighting up the whole damn room. to those that do have a problem with it, also 9 times out of 10, it's rlly smth on Their(TM) side of things — personal unhappiness, inability to voice discomfort, jealousy, insecurity, wanting something else, whatever else. that's not something you're responsible for if they aren't telling you "hi would it be alright if we slow things down a bit, i get that you're excited but i'm still catching up". 

life is short, we do rp for a good time, so embrace that good time. don't tone yourself down for feeling "too much". it's enthusiasm like what you're voicing that makes the social aspect of rp leagues worth it. energy is infectious, and those vibes are the kind of vibes anyone would (ideally) like to have coming into a creative hobby.

honestly same hat as traveller, and i feel like it warrants sharing this tumblr post on a semi-similar subject, since choosing to take this approach re: characters and plots and dealing with "how do i (writer) get you (character) to do what i want" did a lot for me. may not be the same for everyone but, like, hey, worth a shot to share?

these days i tend to be more of a "have an idea of what i (writer) want in the end and then fill in the blanks of how to get there (character) as i go on". i think the same approach applies rlly well to dm-ing too: you set the goal, then just see what you can do to get there. sometimes, it takes grabbing your characters by the hair and going "no we're going THIS way" but tbh, as long as you can come up with some reason why (i.e. as the tumblr post mentions, "what would drive you to go this route") then that can be enough. sometimes too, all it takes is a light nudge — introduce something new to Get Them to follow your crumbs, or being willing to handwave if necessary and explain reasons later. end of day, you're the one writing. the characters are words (or drawings, or etc) on a page. 

edit: damn the link's broken. putting the image under a spoiler tab due to length.

i have a problem. the problem is that i can't stop accidentally making goro akechi persona 5.

i make a character. he ends up a goro akechi. i make another character who is meant to be his opposite. he ends up a goro akechi. i make a girlboss. she ends up a goro akechi. i make a test character for a new tabletop game system my dm found. they end up a goro akechi. i make an npc for a boss fight in an event. he STILL ends up a goro akechi.

if this was just in my head i could pretend its fine but i don't notice it until someone mentions it and at this point maybe i'm gonna go goro akechi.

please set me free.

update my gf is sending me to my grave, goodbye everyone
