guess who's back, back again

So do I want to finish the book I just started that's bubbling up RP ideas in my head or do I want to RP. Can I do both at once.

Being back in my love's small town and being able to sleep in until the early afternoon. This semester has been so rough and I am exhausted by city living.

This is such a good idea, thank you!

Was a week ago actually, but I wrote possibly the longest reply of my life (and it was only halfway done) over on Word for more visibility, the document is nowhere to be found. I could cry. I've been hesitating to write it over for days now, because I just can't right now.

Definitely. I think if an RP has to be rooted in certain disciplines to even be enjoyable for both people or for one person not to be going “??? what ur character just did is not how that works”, then it’s exclusionary already to people who aren’t interested or knowledgeable about those specific...

I think some of it is that sci-fi/futuristic can be intimidating, depending on the level of realism expected, because of the science part specifically. I’m currently roleplaying both a fantasy and a sci-fi storyline, and while both take research (I’m drawing a lot of inspiration and terminology...

This sounds so useful lmao, feel free to shoot some resources at me if you have time!

You might enjoy reading and drawing inspiration from some of Octavia Butler's books, starting with Parable of the Sower, if you haven't already. She does this quite well. *slinks back into the shadows to read about this genre I never play*

Clarity, in my case. Clarity, clarity, clarity. I want to know how you are as a partner, what you like to roleplay genre-wise, what you enjoy in a roleplay theme-wise, and what you want from me. That doesn't mean your interest check has to be a paragraph long-- I tend to make mine as detailed...

Adding to what everyone else has said, I read an interesting post awhile back about straight women enjoying dynamics in MxM pairings that would raise red flags in hetero pairings because of the risks associated with power imbalances in straight relationships. They can take a step back from the...

Thanks for this, it hits a lot of points I agree with, as well. Ultimately, even when I wasn't officially a minor, people who were older than me put me in some very uncomfortable positions online. While I know I would never harass a minor, I also don't feel comfortable roleplaying the themes I...

90% of the time it's because I find our styles don't match up after we've sent some RP samples, so I usually go with something like: "Thanks so much for planning with me this far, but I don't think our styles are compatible. Thanks again for your time, and I hope you find the partner you're...

OK who in the world keeps trying to log into my account, tf? Like of all accounts to attempt to hack, my RpN?

Growth, my friend.

Oof those both sound like nightmares. So frustrating. Why????

I— huh???? Why? Christ :’)

Hard agree @Daisie @Werepunk . I love angst in my roleplays. Part of the appeal is the intensity of the feelings involved in situations that are angsty, I like writing those feelings, exploring where they come from for my characters, etc. It allows me to flesh out a lot-- what their weaknesses...

I definitely agree. Like at this point I'm so tired of this narrative that people don't play POC and LGBT folks because they're scared of doing it wrong, when I'd bet my right arm most just don't want to. It doesn't take much to be honest about it, but you're right, the excuses that are used are...

It's just like when people say they don't play men because they wouldn't know what to do. I'm just like . . . but men are people too, and they aren't a monolith? People are allowed to roleplay whatever they want, but if I'm honest, that's the quickest way for me to x out of an interest check...
