Open random starters to pick, choose and prod the old girl if you want
Here are 29 pre-written starters. They aren’t intended for immediate use as we’re all either busy or trying not to be too under the weather at present. If you feel like bothering the lass at some point down the road and you think you can work with one of the nonsense below, go ahead. These will be available indefinitely.
The starters can be tweaked slightly for your muse and reposted afresh if you decide to give one of them a go. Drop a line and we’ll work things out. Don’t feel obliged to plod through if you don’t want to. They are private entries but should be viewable via the links. You know where to send a message even if it’s for a bit of a chat about non-RP things like the rising cost of eggs at the supermarket this week in our respective corners of the world, receiving melted chocolate in the post, and fist-shaking at the young and perky.
This post will be pinned in case anyone wants the old girl in the future. More may be added if/when inspiration strikes and time permits.

Meme originally from https://www.tumblr.com/rp-starters-ask-box-fillers/142518705242
💋 - kissing
She's good at giving quick pecks to the cheek and forehead where her sister and mother. The Kotetsus are a close family and very affectionate. With a partner, there will be little pecks too. Anything else will depend on the partner's opinion. She's the more languid than fiery, though there will be some neediness and a touch of the demanding in bedroom matters.
👼 - babysitting
Your child, ward and small animal that you regard as your baby will be in very safe hands. She will do her best to keep your child and ward entertained and safe, while taking their opinions as seriously as she finds things to occupy them.
🍛 - cooking
She says she's passable at it, but she's fairly good. While her cooking isn't at restaurant level, she knows what she's doing in the kitchen and can whip up foods that she doesn't eat as long as she knows the recipe. For foods, she unfamiliar with, she can produce decent final products as long as there is a recipe to follow. Isane is the type of cook who thinks to add leaf of shredded and knotted screwpine into rice as its cooking to make it fragrant. That tells you something about the care that she takes on the kitchen.
💃 - dancing
In her main verse, she can't dance. She once tried to teach herself the rumba and cha-cha from books she borrowed from the Library. She tried out the cha-cha while mopping the floor and alas, slipped and fell and resembled a beached seal at the end of it. With a good partner, she can be taught, but the fellow needs to be bloody patient with her as shy lass is shy.
In her modern AU, she can dance but it's slow ballroom numbers and not what the modern-day youngsters would consider dancing. Her preferences go into the slow foxtrots and rumbas. These only make an appearance during hospital functions or charity events, and she's selective about who she stands up with.
🎭 - acting/performing arts
She likes attending the theatre, operas and symphony and going to the galleries, but she doesn't do anything like acting or painting,
🍻 - tolerating alcohol
In her main verse, she doesn't have a high threshold for it. She gave up drinking completely in the lead-up to the war and is teetotal after said conflict. It makes sense to her as she needs her hands steady and her head clear in case of emergencies.
In her modern AU, she doesn't drink at all and instead goes for sparkling juices.
😠 - managing with their temper
Relatively good. She gets more annoyed than cross and just goes quieter rather than sharp and shouty. It frightens her staff in the operating theatre. When it comes to her patients' care, she can get cross if their lives are threatened. It usually comes across as deep disappointment and quick flashes of irritation though
📝- planning and following their plan
Pretty good. She likes having everything planned out so that she knows what to do. She has five-year plans for her Division in her main verse, and back-up plans of back-up plans in the operating theatre in both her main and modern AU verses.
🎤- singing
She cannot sing. She can hum though, and sometimes lip-syncs her favourite operatic arias.
🙊 - keeping secrets
She doesn't intentionally blab. Anything to do with patient confidentiality is guarded closely. Anything told to her in confidence stays that way. However, if she feels something needs to be said because it would clear up an issue or result in safety for others, she will drop very obvious hints.
🌷- taking care of plants/pets
The woman has an array of dangerous and poisonous plants in pots and her garden. She knows what she's doing. Her flower arrangements don't wilt easily either. Your plant baby is in good hands with her. Pets are the same. They will be cared for like children.
😈 - manipulating with others
She doesn't do it consciously. And she'd be terrible at it if she does it consciously. She doesn’t realise that she wears people down subtly with her niceness and kindness.
🏊 – swimming
She can swim but she’s not great at it.
😂 - telling jokes
Isane is awful at it. She’s an honest sort, so any joke she intentionally makes will fall flat. However, she is unintentionally funny in the things she says like, “Please don’t drink that [soft drinks] or you’d have an afternoon of flatulence”.
📰 - keeping track of world news
In her main verse, she knows what’s going on because Kiyone hears the latest on-dits and there are captains’ meetings.
In her modern AU, she listens to the news on the radio as she gets ready to leave for work at the hospital.
📚 - worlds history knowledge
In her main verse, not much. She knows the officially sanctioned history of Soul Society and her knowledge of history in the living world comes from the period novels she reads.
In her modern AU, she knows enough but isn’t an expert on any one country or any particular historical subject.
⌚- keeping track of time
Unless there is something distracting her, unforeseen complications and emergencies, and she’s having a good time with friends, family or a partner, she keeps a good enough grasp on time.
💪 - staying fit
She books a training room at the Academy twice a week in her main verse, and she does aerobics on most mornings in her modern AU.
😏 - lying
She’s a terrible liar.
🚗 - driving a car
In her main verse, she doesn’t drive. In her modern AU, she can drive and she’s a careful driver but she takes public transport.
👗 - dressing with style
It’s understated elegance for her in all her verses.
🔮 - magic
In her main verse, she’s good enough at Kido and she knows what she’s doing in Kaido to be creative with it. In her modern AU, it’s not applicable.
🔪 - melee weapons
Decent but nothing that says “skilled swordswoman”.
🔫 - ranged weapons
She has no idea as she had not tried.
💞 - expressing their feelings
She’s all compassion and bleeding heart. She weeps openly, privately, sniffles at moving music and operas, pities almost everyone, and sometimes puts her foot in her mouth when she speaks off the top of her head. She’s also prone to non sequiturs that give away her thoughts, though it flies over people’s heads sometimes as the Kotetsu imagination can be off-kilter.
😓 - acknowledging mistakes
She has no trouble acknowledging a mistake, and she will be flustered and stammering over it.
🎺 - playing an instrument
She can’t.
🎁 - making gifts
Simple things that involve things she can sew from scrap fabric, little gifts of food, flower arrangements and tea blends are about all she manages.
✊ - keeping promises
Isane keeps them for the most part. If a life is in danger and breaking her word would save that person, then she would do it.

02. butterflies or honeybees - Both
03. typewritten or handwritten letters
04. flower crowns or oversized sun hats - Both
05. polaroids or film
06. road tripping in a VW bus down the coast or camping in the woods on summer nights – Neither. She prefers a walk in the woods.
07. cozy beanbags or breezy hammocks – Neither. A sofa or bed is much easier get up and get out from.
08. oversized jumpers or fluffy bathrobes – Both, though she does potter around in nightgowns with matching robes in her downtime in her canon and modern AU verses.

12. macarons or eclairs
13. a candlelit bath or a naturally lit reading room
14. a matinee at a musical or a evening at the art gallery – Both, though she would prefer an opera and symphony to a musical. She likes impressionist art and enjoys walking through art galleries and museums as much as she enjoys pottering in her garden among her dangerous plants. She has a framed landscape print of Claude Monet’s Flowers of Vetheuil (1881) in her bedroom in both her canon and modern AU verses.
15. creamy hot cocoa with marshmallows or dippable hot chocolate with churros – Neither.
16. poetry or prose – Both.

20. purikuras or photo booths – Neither.
21. cosy scarves or warm beanies – Neither. Shawls that she can wear as scarves and as 1940s-1950s kerchiefs are more her thing.
22. rose gold or copper
23. watching the sky at sunset from the beach or watching the city below from an aeroplane at night – Neither. She likes twinkling lights as she strolls in her modern AU or when she’s sitting at her engawa in her canon verse.
24. mason jars or coffee mugs – Neither. She has tea sets and yunomi.
25. puffy clouds and blue skies or thunder and lightning on rainy days – Clouds and fine weather for her plants but when winding down at the end of the day, she likes rain, thunder and lightning.
26. a cup of hot tea or a bowl of warm soup – Both.
27. picnic on a grassy hill or tea in a flower garden – Both.
28. silk or lace – Both, and only if the lace isn’t scratchy. In her modern AU, brassieres should not have lace as she doesn’t like that they tend to show over clothes.
29. sketching in a museum or journaling in a café – Both, though she would write poetry at cafes rather than scribble in a journal.
30. converse high tops or beaded summer sandals – Neither. She’s an advocate of practical shoes.
31. sweet crêpes or fluffy pancakes – Both, and only if they aren’t laden with excessive cream.
32. galaxies or nebulae – Both.
33. cuff-chain earrings or full finger rings – Neither. Elegant dangling earrings are more her thing.
34. knee socks or leggings – She’s a nice, old-fashioned girl who will wear socks in canon and tights in her modern AU.

37. autumn leaves or spring flowers – Both.
38. summer fruits: peaches, berries, cherries, and apricots or tropical fruits: pineapples, mangos, papaya, and grapefruit – She likes fruits with stones because substances can be extracted from them for medicinal and self-defence uses.

43. enamel pins or embroidered patches
44. fresh cheeses and cured meats or fresh bread and homemade jams – Both.
45. fireworks or sparklers
46. bath bombs or scented candles – She does milk baths twice a year rather than doesn’t like bath bombs.
47. library borrower cards or vintage postcards – Both. When it comes to postcards, she likes painted works.
48. singing and playing the ukulele while walking or singing in the car with the windows down – Neither. She can’t sing and only hums, so that’s out. Having the car window down is impractical as dust and fumes get in, and hair will get blowsy.
49. filling your passport with stamps from each place you travel to or collecting souvenirs from every place you’ve travelled to
Original version can be viewed at https://bunchofrpmemes.tumblr.com/post/130098621753/bold-all-that-apply
Some of them have been changed slightly. Italicised items are things the old girl does rarely and/or very poorly. Cancelled items are things she doesn’t do.
___________________________________
bake a cake from scratch (she takes it she’s not expected to do things like grind down wheat into flour etc, as she can’t do things like that)
ride a horse (but she may sit side-saddle-ish on patients as she straps them down if they try to leave when they’re clearly wounded and in need of assistance)
drive a gig
speak a second language (she can’t speak it but she has reading knowledge of enough English to read medical journals she borrows from the Academy’s library and has a dictionary handy for words she doesn’t know; she can also read Mandarin in traditional script and simplified script)
dance (not really, for reference see this entry here)
catch a fish | play an instrument
throw a punch (she can but she doesn’t like anything that could injure her hands which she needs to work, she rather try other methods)
build an anatomical model (She can’t do that but she can draw the nervous system and cross-sections of organs. And she has anatomical models and acupuncture models to play and experiment with.)
ice skate (Isane is someone who slips and falls while mopping the floor and doing the cha-cha, so no ice skating for her.)
unclog organs/arteries

juggle

ride a bike
swim (as long as she can see where the shore is and she hasn’t ventured too far)
sail a boat (she only sails small paper boats down the stream/river) | do a back flip
play chess (she knows how but doesn’t play as she lacks the necessary tactical and strategic talent for it; she can analyse moves after the fact and uses chess to rationalise things)
give CPR
pitch a tent
flirt (she’s shy despite the light period romance she occasionally reads)
stitch a wound
read palms (only if something is actually written there with a pen or marker)
use chopsticks (including purposes for which they were not intended)

do sudoku puzzles

tie a tie (she has to do it on herself because she doesn’t know how to do it on someone)
skip a rock
shuffle a deck of cards (they fall out whenever she tries)
