Catch me if you can!

Hey all! As some of you guys know, I took a step back from rping for a few reasons. Lack of inspiration, I had to go to Houston for three weeks because of work, and then I had an extremely important exam that I had to study for (I passed!).

So now that I’m pretty much free to do whatever the hell I want in my free time without feeling guilty about not studying, I’m hopping back on the bandwagon.

Step 1. Read their rules. Step 2. Read their rules. Step 3. Read their rules.

If you find yourself wanting to interact with someone, DO NOT BE SHY; follow them, message them, send them memes, most RPer’s are most likely appreciative of you giving them attention; ALL RPers want that attention! 

 If they do not follow you back.

DO NOT FRET. They are most likely just trying to keep their dash as clean as possible,a cluttered dash can be really difficult when keeping track of threads. Try to  read their rules, if they happen to be a MUTUAL ONLY BLOG respect this, but if they aren’t it means that YOU ARE WELCOME TO SEND THEM MEMES and REPLY TO THEIR OPEN POST. Communicating with the mun is an effective way to know if they are interested. Do not fear rejection! 

If they follow back.

[Is he.. kidding??? Wat.]

My character has limits and boundaries, opinions and a mind of their own. I can’t or won’t force them to do something that feels unnatural to them, makes them uncomfortable or goes against their nature. As much as such forced situations can improve their character data, it won’t always have that effect and I want to remind people of this.

I don’t expect a lot from the other part, but I do quietly expect you as a fellow writer to understand when enough is enough for my character without me, the writer, having to tell you. 

If they say no they mean it. If they say yes they mean it.

They are a work of fiction, I know, but they too come with moods, initiative and their own voice, and forcing them into situations will not always result in a positive outcome. It might result in my character not feeling good around yours, and that will eat up my writing inspiration for them.
