That Tricky Rogue

So, I am contemplating deleting this account. I don’t ever get to role-play on here and just generally feel….I don’t know…not unwanted, but unnecessary. People here are awesome and nice to follow and read up on so that’s something I really appreciate, but I don’t feel like anyone is interested in playing with me. Now I have a couple theories as to thy this may be and some explanations.

#1. The most likely reason- I am not a good role-player

This is unfortunate because I know I can be a good writer when I get someone to challenge me to do better, or I just get very into mindset of the characters I am writing for. It appears to me, however, I’d had a difficult time channeling my muse here. This is likely due to the fact that I am unwittingly ignorant to an extent as to the inner-workings of my own muse. I have made, and am continuing to make efforts to alleviate this ignorance though and present a better, more complex, Axel.  This becomes increasingly difficult though when I have no one but myself to expand the character with. That said, its ultimately my own fault. I knew a morsel of information about Axel when I made the account and wanted to learn more, but have failed to do so in a productive way.

#2 Another possibly likely reason- People really hate Axel the character that much

In which case there really is no hope for me, because the only way I can see getting around that would be to go completely off character and create a congenial, generous, happy-go-lucky Axel that would basically be a sell-out.

So now this is where I stand- Asking for help

In the case that I am just not up to par as a role-player (which I believe is likely to be more than accurate) what suggestions/exercises/sell my soul for talent ideas does anyone have to make me better? I really enjoy the medium here for roleplaying and don’t want to give up on it, but at the same time I don’t want to frustrate/get frustrated for not receiving a good roleplay experience. 

So, I was just talking with a friend of mine, and I came to a realization. We were talking about RP stuff, and specifically about our respective characters. As we were talking, I began to realize that there was a lot of my friend in the character she plays. This led me to wonder something, and eventually form a little thought. 

So here’s my idea: 

I want everyone to reblog this and tell the reason they chose their character. Now I don’t mean “because I thought the character was cool” or something like that. That’s self explanatory. I feel like everyone has a deeper reason for picking the character they did. Just to get the ball rolling, I’ll start with mine. 

I chose Deathstroke because, honestly, there are a lot of aspects about him that I aspire to become. He’s strong, fast, brave. He’s the best and he knows it. You mention his name in any crowd, and everyone knows and respects who you’re talking about. 

So, I am contemplating deleting this account. I don’t ever get to role-play on here and just generally feel….I don’t know…not unwanted, but unnecessary. People here are awesome and nice to follow and read up on so that’s something I really appreciate, but I don’t feel like anyone is interested in playing with me. Now I have a couple theories as to thy this may be and some explanations.

I appreciate the defense too. Personally, I don't think of it as very clique-ish anymore (i used to, I admit it) As I've been around and observed more and more it seems like peoples interaction stems beyond just their muses and and people seem to develop personal bonds and investments. I think that's good because people should feel comfortable and confident with who they're playing with. That said, I wonder if one reason I'm having some trouble is because it's almost like making a new friend, not just with the muses, but with the player themselves too, I understand the hesitation when there may be some.

LOVE THIS SONG SINCE THEN ! HAHAHAHHA
