GENERAL

I am picky with whom I chose to play with. I’ve been lenient all my RP life with people, and it’s about time I spoil myself with LITERATE roleplayers. This doesn’t mean I’m going to be bitchy about it, but if I don’t think we’re going to write well together, then I will politely say so. RP is a hobby and I’m not going to stress myself out over it anymore.

I prefer para RPs but I’m not opposed to simple gif/icon chats and ask RPs! I actually find some of the best and well paced RPs are short chat styles. Don’t get surprised, however, if I tend to reply with tons of text— I get excited.

I try to match my partners in their style to keep things visually pleasing to both myself and my readers.

I’m open to OCs— I actually really love OCs! I’m going to be very strict this time around, however, about playing with fandoms I’m familiar with. I don’t mind researching others I’m not necessarily into, but I’m going to (unfortunately) say that I don’t want to RP with anime/animated characters unless it’s plotted out really well.

NSFW

This blog will be triggering. I always generally tag things appropriately, though if you're following me and happen to come across something I haven't tagged, or there's anything you see that you'd prefer be tagged for your comfort, then please message me and let me know!

I DO TAG ALL NSFW MATERIAL. All triggers will be tagged appropriately, and I will use READ MOREs where necessary.

In regards to smut, I am 22, so definitely of age, and my only requirement is that you are of age as well. Sometimes I’m in the mood for shameless smut, sometimes I’m not. For my own comfort, I’d prefer not to smut with anyone under the age of 18.

SHIPPING

My OTP is Mark/Chemistry.

Do NOT force your ship on me. I’m open to any ship, but it all really boils down to chemistry. I won’t force a ship on you, so I’d appreciate the same courtesy.

Mark is bisexual, though harbours a female preference. This hasn't stopped, however, his schoolgirl crush on Sherlock Holmes, his dating Moriarty, and his engagement to Tom.

REAL LIFE

RPing is a hobby. Not a profession. If it were a profession, I’d be rich as dicks. I will feel no guilt for not getting on every day or taking my time.

Life can get hard— I’ve got a three year old, a fiance, a cat, and our own home that requires cleanup after a three year old every hour. I may not get online every day, but that doesn’t mean I’m dead or going on hiatus. Life just gets busy, and life comes before a fictional character.

his verse with totallynotanogitsune happened because of a text meme

one of the feelsiest threads he's ever had with sethxstilinski (and that's saying something) started with seth wanting dino nuggets

he and incantatxfatum are in a hateship bc of a meme

his verse with averystilinskihuman started with--you guessed it--a meme

his dark verse happened because sethxstilinski posted an abusive sentence starter meme and said she wanted one

are you sensing a theme here?

the pack has locked stu out of the loop. yes he knows about it, but they don't know that.

stu is a witch, meaning he uses magic through tools, not through personal power. as such he doesn't have an aura.

stu was homeschooled for the first nine years of his life, at which point he went straight to high school and then college. if you're his age, and not a prodigy on his level, you've never been his classmate.

stu was a bubble boy for the first nine years of his life. he didn't get into scrapes. he didn't pull pranks. he was almost never allowed outside because he was sick so often.

As of this Friday, May 30, I will not be individually tagging any of the triggers listed on this page. Posts containing any triggers in the verse description will be taggedonly with the verse tag. This is for a couple reasons: 1) I'm extremely lazy and 2) I'm constantly worried I'm going to forget something.
