So here’s my PSA: LET PEOPLE WRITE VILLAINOUS, VIOLENT, LOW EMPATHY, POWERFUL, AND/OR EGOTISTICAL AND CELEBRITY MUSES WITHOUT TRYING TO BRING THEM DOWN A PEG. the amount of people who try to humble literal god muses, muses with incredible strength, or even egotistical celebrities really astounds me. Especially when to do this, some will weaponize character traumas their muse shouldnt even know about to try and knock them down a peg. Don’t do that shit.

That’s really disrespectful to muns and muses alike – pulling out trauma or making them relive debilitating fears is not the gotcha! moment some folks think it is. That is what we pro gamers call a dick move – and totally unreasonable unless you and that mun agree you can do that. Buut thats not really the case for what i see most of the time – or have experienced in the past with other muses who fell under this umbrella.

Oftentimes, this is not a mutual feeling or agreed upon dynamic. Especially with celebrity, villainous, or deity muses who are supposed to be well known within their canons. Even if you dont know about them ooc, if a mun says your character would likely know them ic bc of their fame and or influence or status as a deity, a villain, or a celeb, then please listen to them. Work with them on this and see if there’s any ic way your muse knowing abt them makes sense.

Its NOT fun when you immediately plot with someone and go “it would be hilarious if my muse absolutely despises/undermines yours for no clear reason and also doesn’t know about them or pretends to not know them!” if both muns dont agree to that. Treating them like that tends to cause a chain reaction; everyone ELSE starts to continue dragging said muse down or treat them like dirt. I’ve seen it happen time and time again – and it upsets me every time i see it happen to another folk in the rpc. Now im NOT saying that you should expect all muses or w/e to know or even like those kinds of muses – in fact i encourage more complicated or even negative dynamics AS LONG AS ITS MUTUALLY AGREED UPON.

However … When all your interactions are nothing but negative and you are playing a character who in their canon fitd the criteria above, its really discouraging. The hatred piles on and on, and it may not be anything personal from others’ ends, but it comes off as pretty excessive. Especially when more headstrong or snobby muses dont really care about what your muse says or does, so to counter, they bring up trauma they AGAIN shouldn’t even know about. Or if someone posts a hc abt a muses trauma? DON’T immediately flee to the ask box to try and intimidate them with the trauma the mun specifically just posted about. That’s seriously not cool, unless both muns agree to or have talked out plotting that.

If you will take her away,

Then please take me as well.

Happy February 3rd! Here’s some dumb memes I made about a year ago to celebrate and put on imgur.
