Love Language: Masked

DEMO | FAQ | PATREON | STATUS: TENTATIVE HIATUS

Get ready for the most captivating and unconventional reality dating experience ever witnessed!

Set out on a thrilling six-week journey that defies conventional beauty standards and dives deep into the realm of emotional connections. Prepare to be swept away to a secluded waterfront estate, where masked contestants will embark on a quest for love like no other.

In this extraordinary social experiment, aesthetic attractions take a back seat as the focus shifts towards forging genuine, soulful bonds. Each contestant will don a unique mask, concealing their physical identities, allowing them to explore the depths of emotional connections with their fellow love-seekers. Stripped of preconceptions based on appearance, they can truly delve into the essence of each person's character, values, and compatibility.

But here's the twist: as the weeks progress and relationships blossom, the contestants will have the opportunity to remove their masks and reveal their true identities. However, this choice comes at a cost. A portion of the $60,000 secondary prize pool will be deducted with each mask unveiling. This intriguing dilemma adds an exciting layer of tension, as the contestants must decide if the potential reward of revealing themselves is worth the sacrifice of the prize money.

The public will have the power to determine an array of benefits for their fan favorites as well as the winning couple who will claim the coveted primary prize of $500,000. Viewers will witness the rollercoaster of emotions, heartaches, and unexpected connections as the contestants navigate their way through challenges, group activities, and intimate one-on-one dates. Alliances will form, trust will be tested, and hearts will be on the line as they strive for a shot at love and the chance to win the grand prize.

Who will find true love and claim the public's admiration? Who will choose to unveil their mask and reveal their true selves? And ultimately, who will emerge as the last mask standing, securing the secondary prize?

but there hasn't been any progress.

Aww ❥ Hihihihi!

I'm here and mostly healthy. lol Not doing well but I'm working through it.

It's an unintentional hiatus, I swear! 😅

This scene came to me as I was working on chapter one and I couldn't get it out of my head...

Thank you again to everyone that has been supporting Love Language: Masked! ❥

Could it be...that you got a thing for blue eyed blondes? Couse there are 4 out of 11 people, that have blond(ish) hair and blue eyes? And i know the majority(7) of the contestants are looking different, still i could not not see this, and just wanted to ask, if that is purely coincidental?

Again, this is not ment to be disrispectful towards you the author, nor any of the contestants etc. i just wanted to get this out and say my opinion, have a lovely day <3

Interesting... I can’t say I favor blondes/blue eyes over any other. My heart has ached for all types. 😅

It was purely coincidental. A cast this size is a little overwhelming to work with. My focus was more on including a variety of personalities and backstories. Appearances didn't come in till later for some, but I'll I'll keep it in mind for the next group.

This is a great ask. If I had to pinpoint any one thing, I'd have to say… my anxiety! Lolol

Partly kidding.

I think there's a bit of everything that reflects in each character - the good, the bad, the work in progress. Some may embody more than others, NOT because I pick favorites. ahem But because some backgrounds and personalities just align better with me.

i did have a question about masks, and i'm not sure if it's been asked before. is there a rule to how much the mask must/can cover? for example, would it be against the rules to wear a mask that COMPLETELY covers the contestant's head, like mascot heads, object head cosplays, or those animal masks from Hotline Miami?

can a mask just be anything as long as it covers most of the features? does that mean things like knight helmets w/ visors, plague doctor masks, full-face gas masks, and even paper bags are fair game?

what are the minimum features that must be obscured? could a contestant just run with goggles and a bandana and call that their mask since it covers most of their features?

am i asking all of this because i am a freak about masks and have an obsession with Hotline Miami's aesthetic and just want to imagine/draw my MC(s) in varying feature-obscuring headgear? (answer: yes lol i am so sorry 🙇 )

ok i will stop being a weirdo in your ask box. once again, so sorry for coming in here and typing up a paragraph with the most weirdly specific questions about mask choices. i leave you a complementary water and am cheering you on!! 💖

Hihi! Thank you so much! Never stop being a weirdo in my ask box. Ever. I feel honored that you wrote me an essay.

I have a thing for masks too. 🤭

The only requirement is that it obscures most features. Any mask that covers nose and mouth, eyes and nose, or eyes and mouth? That one is a little hard to imagine. Full-face masks are fine, including... paper bags, which Z would fully approve. LOL

I can't wait to see all of your MCs!

Love Language: Masked has surpassed 300 followers!

AH! Thank you for your support!! I wasn’t sure what to expect when I decided to go public with this project and to be honest, I still don’t. I also don’t know what I’m doing. LOL

B U T

I know that I’d like to celebrate this milestone by giving one of you the power to decide which RO will be the first to approach the MC after all the introductions and announcement stuff on the first day.

The event will run from August 26th to September 2nd 11:59 PM EST. Any entries after that time will not be counted.

To be chosen…

Be sure you follow me! I will only pick those that follow me, as this is a followers’ event. 

Like and/or re-blog this post! Doing both will get you two chances to be picked. Only a single re-blog will be considered.

The chosen one will be contacted via their Tumblr account. If you don’t reply within (3) days, you will be renounced and another will be chosen.

So... uh, the last revealed I mentioned happened on Monday.

I have it down on my calendar for Wednesday(yesterday) butttt I guess past me decided to reveal it earlier. 🤷🏻 Not sure what happened there.

No you didn't.

There are so many of them and many changes. I may be having a bit of a hard time keeping track.

👀

The final member of the original arrivals will be revealed tomorrow!

Aerith (she/her | 21)

Real name: █████ ██████

Exceptional intelligence. Aerith’s relentless pursuit of knowledge in the field of biology serves as proof of her ardent passion. She navigates the world with a unique blend of confidence and curiosity. Her natural self-assuredness sometimes led to misunderstandings, especially with individuals who perceived her as overly self-assured or cocky. Her focus on academic pursuits sometimes made it difficult for her to relate to her peers on a personal level, leading to occasional feelings of isolation.

Just as she finds joy in studying plants and ecosystems, she would find pleasure in spending quality time with her loved ones. She appreciates undivided attention and heartfelt conversations that allow her to connect on a deeper level. Her love language is Quality Time.

5'4", her pale skin complements her strawberry blonde hair, fashioned in a short bob, radiates a playful mix of red and gold, both stylish and pragmatic. Baby blue eyes, alive with curiosity and wonder, provide a glimpse into her innate fascination with the world. Freckles, like constellations, adorn her cheeks and nose, marking her enduring connection to the outdoors.
