Domestic animals; cats, I have two girls whom I love to death and back.
Non-Domestic Wolves; They are amazing beasts I volunteered at a wolf shelter around where live and once they get to know you they are the most social animals ever!
My feelings towards self inserts can be split into two.
1. If the self insert feels like a natural part of the world without it being thrown into someone's face then it shouldn't be to bad, they are a living breathing part of the world without much of a problem. They could just be working a job...
Honestly depends on the fandom? If the fandom has some good people with good knowledge of the content then it isn't too bad! If people are insufferable? Then it's a bit hard to get into.
Hey! Just call me Kaliem, I've been roleplay for...how long has it been since Myspace? Yea that long lmao, I typically do fandom rp with preferences towards D&D and all kinds of Anime, looking forward to finding some RP partners on here!
