You know, I never really thought I’d be doing this, especially so soon.

Well, relatively speaking. I was expecting me to keep going for a bit longer. Things change though.

I shouldn’t make this too long because I’ll end up saying things I don’t mean or ret-conning stuff mid-type.

But I’m done with rping on Tumblr. It was nice, but I just don’t enjoy it anymore.

Let me specify this, however: I don’t hate rping in general.

It’s just that, as a person role playing, there are features and ways that these things work that prevents me from having fun.

The follower system is one. I’ve caught myself focusing way too much on that tiny number and it just brings up negative thoughts way too much. I shouldn’t be focusing on how many people really like my work, but instead those that I enjoy working with.

For me, RP’s are about having fun with those close to you. Tumblr helped me find those people, and just find people I enjoy being around, through the best and worst.

Not having images to use to describe your character is another. It feels like if you don’t use them, people aren’t going to rp with you on Tumblr. This is likely more of a personal gripe really.

I feel that Rping through servers on Discord, however, is more fit for me. I feel like I’ve found those groups that I like talking with and rping with and just being a goof with. Those servers give off the sensation I like about rps, and that they don’t have to follow a format and be all business. I know there is ‘shitposting’, but that still feels like that your public opinion basically plummets if you make one error. It does not feel like it is about enjoyment, it feels like you need to conform to a certain style to be able to enjoy yourself. And if you don’t follow these things, then it feels like you miss out on a lot of opportunities.

I also feel as if just about every other month, there’s some kind of argument on here about some kind of minute detail. And it usually deals with what people have for a headcanon. 

Undertale is likely the most freeform game when it comes to a character’s likes, dislikes, past and future that I have played. The rules of the world are very open. It was designed to where you can interpret things so wildly different from someone else that it’s no surprise there are so many AU’s for it.

But please don’t start spitting shade because you think someone is one way, and someone else thinks it’s another way. Or if you generally just dislike their character. Or if you dislike someone’s ship. You all can be civil, discuss it as such.

There’s also the issue of that college is becoming a bit tighter, so I don’t have as much time to fuss about small formatting details or worry about multiple people’s canons as I did when I started.

So, in short, to those I’ve left hanging on their RPs ( @onewithoutpurpose @amphibiotic , @underveils , and @ask-dogi to name a few) I apologize. I’m kind of stealing an opportunity for you to develop your character further in a public setting.

IF you want to possibly continue those rps that are on Tumblr, feel free to hit me up through the DM, or if you know me on Discord. I’d be fine to continue those through discord or some other rp chat room thing, and you can post the results on your blog if you so wish.

To those that enjoyed the actual content that I put out, I’m glad you did. I hope I provided some entertainment of at least mediocre.

Now, for the future of this blog: Yes, it will be archived. As soon as I figure out how to do that (This was the first ever blog I made, and the only one I’m needing to archive). But the ‘about’ page is still subject to change, since I’m still playing Matt on other platforms. I need a way to show those I’m rping the info they’ll need, especially since he can still change. I’m unfortunately finicky.

And at some point, I’ll have a post that will give my last message out and one that gives callouts to other blogs I think you should check out, as well as my personal opinions on them. 

 anyway its my birthday today ;3c

happy birTH

"It's been far too long..."

Mettaton stood outside Lone Digger's door, away from the bouncer (because that guy was still just as scary as he remembered). He leaned against the wall, arms crossed, lips pursed into a slight, almost-worried pout. Heaving a sigh, he stopped leaning on the wall and dusted his back off.

 “Easy. Fuck Muffet, marry Exol, and kill you. It’s what you get for asking.”

She stuck her tongue out. Wait didn’t she already try to kill Tyree?

V jumped a little at the sudden eruption from one’s voice, and turned to see who it was. Trying not to show off her nervousness, she waved dismissively, and chuckled, though the tone may show a sign of nervousness.

Send me "Look Into My Eyes" and I'll bold some stuff.

* can't see into your eyes like open doors because open's the last thing that they are...* but i'll see what i can do.
