It’s a fucking necessity.

There is a real person behind that screen. There’s a human writing your favorite blog. They don’t function on your schedule. And you should not expect them to. There are things such as time zones, we don’t all live where it’s after work hours or before work hours or even midnight at the same time.

Some of us have disabilities. Adhd. We get distracted. We are human.

Your partner does not clock in for roleplay.

Your partner is not getting paid to roleplay.

Your partner does not exist soley for your entertainment.

You can not reply and expect an immediate answer. You may get one, if they’re online. If they’re vibing the thread. You may wait a week? maybe two. Maybe your reply is in the queue system. maybe something happened and they can’t be online to write for a while. Maybe they’re not feeling well.  Maybe they just don’t want to roleplay right at that second. People have many hobbies other than writing.

Role-play is a hobby. You need to be patient with your partners so it can be a fun hobby and not a stressful one.

Communicate, be patient, and realize you’re NOT playing a Single Player Game here. If you can’t do that?

DO NOT GUILT YOUR PARTNERS FOR NOT REPLYING OOC IMMEDIATELY.

MOST OF US ARE ADULTS WITH JOBS.

WE ALL HAVE BAD DAYS.

WE DON’T ALWAYS WANT TO ROLEPLAY. OTHER HOBBIES EXIST. SLEEP AND FOOD ARE THINGS HUMANS NEED AS WELL.

“Have you seen my dog?”

“Oh my god, I’m so sorry-!”

“Watch where you’re walking!”

“Do you need a ride home?”

“Hey! Where are you going? It’s dark out, i wanna walk with you.”

“Hey… Can i walk with you? It’s getting late, and..”

“Hello! Would you like to hear about our lord and savior Jesus Christ?”

“Who… Are you?”

“Why are you holding my hand?”

“Wait! You aren’t my grandma!”

“I think you have the wrong number.”

“Wanna get a drink?”

“I think you grabbed the wrong bag.”

“Looks like we’re paired together!”

“That’s my seat.”

“Oh! Sorry! I thought you were someone else..”

“Do you have a dollar or two to spare?”

“I heard you singing. It sounded nice.”

“So, since we’re gonna be stuck together, what’s your name?”

Friendly:

“You look a little lost. Do you need directions?” “That’s an awesome outfit.” “How’s the chicken? I can’t decide whether to order it or not.” “Excuse me, I think you dropped this.” “I don’t know a single person here…”

Flirty:

“Wow, I’ve never seen an angel before…” “You’re the hottest person in this place.” “I saw that. You just checked me out.” “Hey, can I get your number?” *wolf whistle*

Confrontational:

“You’re in my seat.” “What are you staring at?” “You just stepped on my toe!” “Who do you think you are?” “Keep it down, will you?”

Dramatic:
