hello !! im looking for an rp partner(s) !! 
this got kind of long , but i think it's best to give as much info as we can upfront !! it's disappointing to go through someone's plots and pairings and want to RP with them , only to talk foar a bit and realize you two aren't actually a good fit ^^;; also , this post is fairly informal , but don't worry !! i have proper grammar n stuff when I'm actually RPing lol ( see writing samples )
( an extra note abt my typing : i dont do this to be
️ quirky ️ or something , this is just how i type . im brainweird . tho a lot of this is copied and pasted from my old interest check , so typing style may not be consistent )i ask that you please read tha information under tha ' ARE WE COMPATIBLE ? ' spoiler , but everything else is optional to read !! ^^
ARE WE COMPATIBLE ?
About Us
Preferences and Logistics
Preferences and Logistics
- i'm 25 , and id prefer my partner be 21 or older as well !! i could maybe rp with someone younger , but definitely no minors . it just feels weird to RP with someone so much younger than me ( especially since I often do romance rps ) , so hard no on anyone 17 or younger , sorry !!
- i am in tha eastern standard tiem zone !! its not necessary that we have the same or even similar timezones , but i thought that information could be useful
- i usually prefer MxM , FxF , or NBxA , but I can be talked into doing FxM if tha plot is really good !! i can play any gender character
- i write in third person paragraph style , and prefer a partner that does , as well !!
- i prefer to RP through PMs , it's just easier , and I feel safer / moare comfortable
- i dont do fancy post layouts , and i ask that if you do , you keep them accessible . i see a lot of them with really tiny font , light text on a light background , really hard to find / invisible scroll bars , etc etc . . . honestly i just skip those posts tbh . if you make it that hard to read , you obviously arent looking to have me as an rp partner / it feels like some kind of survival of the fittest screening process lol
- i don't typically use faceclaims , I just describe what my characters look liek ( for ocs ) . if u want me to use a faceclaim , it will purrobably be art , not a real photo of someone . I don't care / mind if you use faceclaims , or what kind they are !!
- i don't usually double , but I'm not opposed to it . I've doubled b4 , and i can do it again if u wanna !!
- please please please dont feel bad if i feel that we arent a good fit , or if foar any reason i decline to rp with you !! i only have so much tiem and energy , so unfortunately i cant say yes to everyone , and in general ive learned to be moar selective about my partners . not trying to hurt anyones feelings !!
- as a heads up , i will not willingly rp with lgbtphobes , racists , abelists , zionists , antisemites , cop lovers , etc . if any of those labels apply to you , know that 1) i hate you and 2) you are deliberately violating my boundaries if you try to rp with me anyways
- I HAVE MEMORY ISSUES . I HAVE A DISSOCIATIVE DISORDER . this isnt to say all my replies take 5 months . ive replied 13 times in one day before , just shooting back and forth-- average when im present is about a reply every few days or so , could be more if im in the zone + i have the time . HOWEVER . i do disassociate and i have accidentally ghosted people before . because i will straight up forget about our rp . not because i hate you or decided our rp sucked or because i wanted to hurt your feelings . my brain is just weird . i try my best to stay on top of things !! i have push notifications enabled and i make reminders for myself !! but ive got soooo much wrong w me man ( lighthearted , but also true . aside from The Disorder i guess adhd would be the next most relevant thing )
- this being said : please do not hesitate to remind me , i'll never be bothered by you poking me and saying hey just checking in !! maybe not every 5 minutes lol but if its been a while , feel free to remind me , you arent being annoying / a bother or anything . well , rpnation logs you out after a certain time tho , so sometimes i dont get the push notifications ^^;;
- ALSO , this all being said , maybe have some other rps going on . again , i can reply back and forth really actively if im present !! but with my track record , this might end up being the casual rp in the background you come back to every two weeks or so , and not your most active one ^^;; just setting expectations where they should be . also again i never ghost on purpose but sometimes it does happen , and im sorry in advance
- as for your activity expectations : there are none !! life gets in the way and stuff , i understand . i do ask that if you want to discontinue an rp , you tell me , so im not forever waiting like ' huh i guess life got kinda busy for them , wonder when they'll be back ' . there will be no hard feelings !! sometimes things dont work out and its whatever , id rather you tell me than force yourself to reply when you arent interested , i dont wanna be a reason you dread opening your notifications . but if you cant / dont lmk , i also understand
- i understand some responses will be shorter , liek for example conversation dialogue ( you can't do that much when ur waiting for my character to respond to what yours just said ) . but pwease try to average at least 3-5 sentences !! for tha simple reason that , I need something to work with / respond to !! one liners really harsh my vibe / take the wind outta my sails . in general , tho , I care more about quality over quantity ; I don't care if my responses are longer than yours as long as I'm having fun asdtyuijdrserfa ówò
- as for me , my post lengths typically match whatever my partner's post length is !! I've made 1 paragraph posts , I've made 14 paragraph posts . I'm a mimic lol
- tha previous point is why I often prefer to have my partner start ^^;;
- i will NOT do any incest , abuse , or pedophilia that is romanticized , fetishized , or glorified / otherwise portrayed in a good light . so , no teacher x student or yanderes or anything like that ( and even if its not romanticized id rather not do any incest at all tbh ) . however , I do liek dark themes !! I'm fine with darkness and trauma and recovery and all that . angst is good . conflict moves tha plot forward !! we can definitely have some of that darker stuff in our rp , but if we explore a darker relationship , it wont be endgame . they wont ride off into the sunset happily ever after . sure , a cute moment may happen here and there , but these are not good relationships and they ( as a unit / couple ) will not have happy endings
- in fact , most of my muses ( canon or oc ) are trauma survivors , cause I am one too and it's cathartic for me to play them . PLEASE let me know ur triggers / what you're comfortable with !! it's not always a huge thing , it could be just a background detail that never even comes up- but , if we RP angsty stuff , I expect it would come into play more lol . if you've read this and are planning on contacting me to RP , plz include tha word gingham somewhere in your first dm to me !!
- this isnt to say that i dont enjoy lighthearted / silly stuff !! one of my fave genres is romcoms óᴗò i love lighthearted / silly stuff too !!!
- i get really into plotting , lol . I throw out lots of ideas and go into detail about possibilities , I think its real fun !! but please don't hesitate to disagree with something , or offer up ideas of your own !! I get so excited that I'm worried I might be overbearing ^^;; -- what I say are just suggestions , we don't have to do my ideas all tha time !! I'd love to hear ideas of ur own !!
- my characters are not 100% agreeable 100% of the time ( honestly my main oc is kind of a bitch jzxjVABSNJXJCA ) . please do not approach me to rp if you cant handle in character conflict , cant handle flawed characters , or will get mad / stressed / upset if everyone isnt always super nice to your oc all the time . it is VERY possible our muses will not get along , not right away at least
- this is pretty much a given / golden rule , but i may as well type it out : please no godmodding !!!!!!

WRITING SAMPLES
“Careful, Clem. Someone might think you have a crush on me. Wouldn’t that be funny?” Clementine didn’t say anything yet, content to watch Jinx roll a pen around his fingers, as he twisted Jinx’s hair around his. It was actually really soft. That’s Pomefiore for you, he supposed. He remembered feeling really emotional his first year, when he found out he didn’t get in. “There’s a lot of people that underestimated me once, and I intend to make them eat their words. That’s why I’m here.”
Clementine’s fingers stilled for a moment before continuing, but he couldn’t stop the intrigue slowly breaking out in the form of a smile on his face. You know, this Jinx guy was kind of exciting. Though he finished his little self introduction with the statement that he was ‘an average guy’. No, he wasn’t. Clementine usually worked on 'average guy’s.
“'Clem’? Awfully familar, aren’t we.” he had been called that before, but only by his friends. He wasn’t sure what Jinx was yet. He didn’t like him, officially, but you could have friends you didn’t like, right? He had done it a million times. Neither his face nor voice were sad or melancholic in any way; he was lighthearted, nonchalant, as he dropped his usual smile. “I don’t really know why I’m here. Because I was invited, I suppose. It would be rude not to accept the invitation.” He glanced at the clock, but didn’t read the time.
“And what if I did? Have a crush on you, I mean.” He did not. But he often said stuff like this, just to say it. Just to see. Just because he felt like it, just to tease. “Would you reject me?” he put his smile back on. He knew the answer was yes, he just wanted to hear Jinx say it. He looked at the glossy black hair dance around his finger. He wanted to pull it. Really hard. He’s drawn blood before, from a pull like that. Only once, though.

Epel took into consideration what Zacaraya had said. Where he needed to be… well, he needed to get stronger. And getting stronger, well, the best place for that was still Savanaclaw, right?
Then Zacaraya mentioned how he felt like he had a home, a pack. Pomefiore certainly didn’t feel like home to to him. But, in his own way, Vil did kind of maybe take care of him, he guessed. He looked out for Epel, making sure he got enough sleep and ate healthy and got high marks on exams. There was some unnecessary stuff too, and he was sure that most of that was just Vil’s duties as a housewarden, but… was this sort of like another family? He doubted it.
He had overheard, once, some kids talking about him behind his back. They said something like ‘he thinks he can do whatever he wants just because he’s Vil’s favourite’, and Epel had to laugh. Vil’s favourite? He was honestly sure Vil hated him most of the time. What was Epel gaining by being at Pomefiore? What did the mirror think he needed? Evidently, he hadn’t found it yet. He hoped he would soon.
He then thought of Zacaraya’s voice. His voice was kind of nice just then, really smooth, when it wasn’t being used to mock him (though Epel loathed to admit it). It also sounded kind of… not sad, maybe… melancholy? He wondered what kind of family Zacaraya had back home. He wondered, again, about his ear.
Lost in thought, Epel hadn’t noticed the whispers, or the stares, but he felt himself being lowered as they approached the main gates.
"Walk the rest of the way”
Epel wasn’t ecstatic about the idea, but he didn’t protest. Zacaraya was probably tired too, and needed a break. He loosened his arms from around Zacaraya’s neck and tentatively stepped down, testing the waters surrounding his ankle. It would be a sorry sight, but he could limp the rest of the way himself (crawling would be easier, but there were people around now, so that was no longer an option).
“Thanks” he said plainly, putting all his weight on one foot and waiting for Zacaraya to stand. They hadn’t really had the most amicable experience, but his meemaw didn’t raise him to not have manners, and he figured Zacaraya still deserved a 'thank you’ for helping him all the way down there. He nodded at Zacaraya, and turned, starting his trek towards the infirmary– though he noticed that Zacaraya wasn’t walking ahead of him, or even keeping pace with him. He wasn’t headed towards the nurse’s office at all. That was odd. He didn’t just forget that he was bleeding from his neck, right?
“Zacaraya?” he called out to him, “Aren’t you going to get that checked out?” He titled his head to the side, looking up at Zacaraya inquisitively. He looked even shorter now, not being able to stand up straight; one shoulder dipped as he rested all his weight to one side, keeping his balance in the breeze.

Jack really was a great guy. Epel couldn’t help but smile when Jack offered him water, then proceeded pour him a glass anyways. If it were anyone else Epel might have taken it as a slight, but because it was Jack he actually found it quite endearing. Familiar. As in, something someone in his family might do.
Maybe he was giving Jack a little too much credit. After all he didn’t really know the guy all that well, he never really got a deep dive on Jack Howl: The Frosh With Integrity. But for some reason Epel just felt like he could trust him. He had a calming air about him, something about how solid his presence was… or maybe Epel was just tired. Everything seems different at 3 am.
Epel nodded and gave a soft “Thank you” as he brought the cup that was served for him closer, the cold glass wetting his nimble fingers with condensation. His hands were dotted with tiny scars if you looked closely enough, evidence of months spent perfecting a craft.
Jack had asked Epel what was keeping him up so late (early?), and truthfully, Epel didn’t know. It wouldn’t really be a problem to say as much, would it? If he had had a nightmare or something, he would have kept his cards closer to his chest, but this seemed superficial enough to speak casually about. “I’m not really sure, honestly. I guess it might have something to do with” he looked up, and then around the room, “the whole living situation. I had trouble sleeping when I first came to Nightaven too, so it could be a change in environment thing, but it honestly hasn’t bothered me much. I mean… don’t tell Vil,” he lowered his voice some, “but I actually think I might like it better here than in Pomefiore.” he took a sip from his glass. “Though lately it has been getting harder to fall asleep, and stay asleep too. It suck– I mean, it’s very unfortunate, because I naturally rise very early, regardless of whether I’ve slept well."
"How about you? How'v– how have you been holding up?” he tilted his head curiously. Apparently Jack had been asleep, so maybe he wasn’t having trouble with insomnia, but the move had been pretty inconvenient for everyone. Odds were high he had a thing or two to gripe about, and if he didn’t, maybe Epel would ask for some advice on how to fall asleep so good. With how well rested Jack generally seemed, he must have been doing something right.
Maybe he was giving Jack a little too much credit. After all he didn’t really know the guy all that well, he never really got a deep dive on Jack Howl: The Frosh With Integrity. But for some reason Epel just felt like he could trust him. He had a calming air about him, something about how solid his presence was… or maybe Epel was just tired. Everything seems different at 3 am.
Epel nodded and gave a soft “Thank you” as he brought the cup that was served for him closer, the cold glass wetting his nimble fingers with condensation. His hands were dotted with tiny scars if you looked closely enough, evidence of months spent perfecting a craft.
Jack had asked Epel what was keeping him up so late (early?), and truthfully, Epel didn’t know. It wouldn’t really be a problem to say as much, would it? If he had had a nightmare or something, he would have kept his cards closer to his chest, but this seemed superficial enough to speak casually about. “I’m not really sure, honestly. I guess it might have something to do with” he looked up, and then around the room, “the whole living situation. I had trouble sleeping when I first came to Nightaven too, so it could be a change in environment thing, but it honestly hasn’t bothered me much.
