Vylet
New Member
Hai, my name is jacie, i am about to be 20. i struggle with self harm ooc. A coping skill i use to cope is roleplay. I am looking for the perfect roleplay partner to start a long term self harm recovery roleplay.
((Notice i say recovery, because though this has a strong theme of mental illness, it does not glorify or romanticize these things. Most themes of this nature are a reflection of things i already went through and need to process or something im going through.))
The plot would be:
Vylet and y/oc have been together for about 2 years and spend most days together so they decided to get their own place and move in together.
Y/oc notices that vylet is crying alot more frequently and wearing alot of long sleeves and pants. She spends alot of time taking showers.. eventually your oc catches on to what is happening, vylet is stuck in a pattern of self harm
The starting point can be a day before or when he finds out. From there they could have a long talk(with lots of cuddles and comfort) and they could come up with a plan to help her stay safe and talk about why its happening
About vylet:
Vylet is a very sensitive, she cries alot and thats okay, it helps her regulate her intense emotions. Another main theme of this roleplay would be comfort.
Vylet is also an age regressor due to her ptsd she subconsciously regresses to a younger mindset. This happens with out her noticing but its important to know because when she is upset and crying the best way to approach it is like soothing a child.
Lots of hugs, a soft caring voice. PETNAMES!! Baby, darling, sweetheart, hun, honey, babygirl, sweetie
Those make her melt.
And rocking and rubbing her back, stroking her hair, just supporting her through it also always helps.
Vylet is baby. She is asexual. She is 18.
Shes very damaged from her past. Shes survived alot of childhood abuse.
**side note I wouldn't be opposed to having a secondary character for a therapist cause realistically a partner isnt enough, but i am not skilled enough to do that.
Vylet's ideal pair:
Tall, calm, patient, compassionate, caring..
Maybe a little older than her
Has to love cuddling
Maybe they already recovered from selfharm or have helped friends overcome it before so they know how to react and the signs
Some pet peeves...
I got a whole shit list of failed attempts so here is what not to do
Dont: assume vylet is suicidal (shes not. Her selfharm is not because she wants to die.)
dont have your character freak out, get angry, get overly emotional/guilt trip over relapses please..
dont glorify it or romanticize selfharm.
a good example is: *he sighed and let her have her relief.*
instant rp killer.
dont assume shes going to "go too far and die" not how that works definitely not in this context. Try to stay away from the cliches
also dont control my oc, dont make me uncomfortable, always communicate, write as much as you can respond to. I am not a fan of one liners or script rps
Since i gave a bunch of donts here is a list of good ways to respond to vylet relapsing:
Hugs... lots of hugs
Assuring her you arent mad
Patience..
Calmly because she will already be freaking out.
More cuddles
I know this is an unusual plot...but it has helped me alot in the past.. i look forward to meeting my perfect rp buddy
