squids
☼ + ☽
WELCOME ABOARD
hello all! it's very nice to meet you! my name is squids, and i am back at it again with an updated search thread. i have room on my roster for a couple more partners and these days i'm just itching to write. my schedule is generally pretty hard to work around, but i am learning to make time for the things that i enjoy. as it stands, i am capable of promising a reply at least once a week, sometimes less sometimes more. i don't like to feel rushed or overwhelmed when writing, as it is something that i pride myself on and take very seriously. i do not do this casually; i only ever want to produce quality work for you to enjoy. furthermore, if that level of frequency is something that you simply cannot vibe with, i ultimately respect that and regret to inform you that i am not the partner for you.
here is a bit about me and my writing style:
- squids // 23 // she/her
- i write in pm's exclusively
- my replies usually tend to be on the lengthier side, between 5-15 paragraphs, sometimes even longer if i feel i have enough to go off of (or if i'm just that invested in the rp)
- avid kpop and kdrama fan
- i love love love side characters!! it's fine if you don't bring any to the table, just know that my character will have at least four or five background characters waiting to be introduced
- while i am open to doubling, it's not necessarily the type of thing i would go out of my way for
- extremely ghost friendly!! please never feel pressured to notify me if you've suddenly lost interest. i completely understand and will not hold it against you.
- while it's not necessarily a requirement for me, i am totally open to OOC chitchat!! i love making pinterest boards and playlists for our characters, and always appreciate it when my partner does the same.
- if you'd like to see a writing sample, please don't hesitate to reach out!!
- i will not engage in roleplay with any person under the age of 18
- though it is not pertinent, i would prefer if my partner shared some similar interests with me.
- please be open to worldbuilding!! i love taking the time to sit down with my partner and bounce ideas off of each other. having a good understanding of the setting and situation is crucial for me to be able to design complex and interesting characters.
- i will not cover topics such as/pertaining to rape/non-con, underage, gore, etc at any time during our roleplay.

i’ll see you there tomorrow
muse a is a struggling student just trying to make ends meet. they've tried every side job imaginable, from construction to uber to tutoring, and nothing ever seems to stick. they are at their wits end by this point. that is, until muse a is coerced into taking on a babysitting job for muse b, an infuriatingly haughty and tantalizingly rich businessperson-- who is also the single parent of a rowdy toddler. immediately upon starting the job, muse a falls in love with the child and goes out of their way to form a bond with them. after seeing how well the two of them get along, muse b decides to make muse a a more permanent fixture in their little family, in perhaps more ways than one.
magic gets lost in the mundane
muse a is a broke college student just trying to get by. they are looking forward to graduating and putting this hellish chapter of their life behind them, but there is one thing standing in their way: extracurricular activities. in order to graduate on time at the end of the school year, muse a must join a club. they spend an entire week looking at clubs, only to find that none of them really suit their fancy-- that is, until they meet muse b, who is funny, beautiful, and just all around the person of muse a's dreams. they learn that muse b is also the president of their own club, and immediately agree to take a look. upon going to check it out muse a learns something else about muse b: they are absolutely insane. president of the 'paranormal society', muse b is full of conspiracy theories and weird beliefs, all of which they genuinely seem to think are true. already having half-promised that they'd join, muse a is invited to go on a retreat with them out in the middle of nowhere for some exciting 'cryptid hunting', and while they'd rather do literally anything other than go hunt a creepy monster that they know for a fact doesn't even exist, they way muse b is looking at them right now... well, they can't exactly say no.
the only one who loves you (is that me?)
muse a, a wildly successful and renowned artist, hasn't picked up a brush in six months. ever since their mother fell victim to a brain eating tumor, they've lost the will to paint. what used to be a beloved and relaxing activity now seems utterly impossible. muse b is a private practice conservator and art enthusiast. outside of their own career, muse b has been muse a's fan for years, making sure to follow them closely. one day, muse b's wildest dreams come true, in the form of a small painting soon to be arriving in their studio, looking a little worse for wear from what muse b can tell. it's one of muse a's early works, a simple painting littered with small punctures. elated to finally get the chance to work on a piece by their favorite artist, muse b is ready to roll up their sleeves and get to work. only, there's a catch-- and muse b finds themselves significantly less elated when the painting is hand delivered by the artist themselves, and they're hellbent on hovering over muse b and scrutinizing their every move.
SEAFARERS!
