⁺ [div class=text_background]Hi: there. I'm [div class=text_background]Bones[/div] and this is my search thread. It's organised into four sections: About me | Looking For | Pairings | Plots . Click the tabs (the lil' green circles) above to navigate.
If, like me, you're struggling to read large bulks of text at a time, you can just read that in [div class=text_background]bold red boxes[/div]. This is the KEY information. There is no 'test' for seeing if you've read everything. I ramble. Spare yourself.
You can skip the first section (this one) if you like, as it'll just be me expositioning my not-so-tragic backstory and the usual bullshit. Plots will keep a running overview of the plots I'm currently searching for for RPs, along with a brief description of each. For the full plots, should any catch your attention please scroll down, as they all will have their own individual post where I go into detail.
[div class=text_background]About Me[/div]
I am [div class=text_background]22[/div], an English nancy, and I've been rping for, what? 10-12 years? I've been in for the long-haul, let's just put it like that.
I've been into all sorts of rps, from the trashy romance crack to the elaborate grand sweeping narratives, through all the time periods, and so on. Right now though (perhaps due to the similarly scary state of things) I am really craving some [div class=text_background]horror.[/div] Work I've been doing for university and media I've been consuming in my free time has often centred around the uncanny, the unsettling, or just the downright horrific, and thus it would seem I've done my prep work for the current lockdown situation. A few pieces of media that you may notice have influenced my [div class=text_background]current cravings[/div] are (provided so that, if you are familiar with any, you might feel similarly inspired): Suspiria (Movie, 2018); The Magnus Archives (Podcast); Annihilation (Book, by Jeff Vandermeer); The House of Leaves (Book, Mark Z. Danielewski); The Outsider (Book, Camus); Perfume (Book, Süskind).
Outside of RP, I am a [div class=text_background]queer[/div] and tired [div class=text_background]transmasc [/div] human who is also currently a key worker and a university student, so I'm still one of the busy ones. I am a hot slut for all things space related, and I'm also a sucker for political intrigue, so a lot of my past rping as been somewhat mass effect or game of thrones esque. This search will actually constitute my first foray into writing horror, so I hope I prove up to the task.
Oh, and I think as the Sylvia Plath quote above (from 'Ariel) probably proves, I'm a pretentious twat of a human and loves living for the drama and the AESTHETIC of it all (darling), so expect over the top, expect moody, expect some Dark Academia vibes. If I'm self-aware, it totally isn't lame— right? [/div][/div][/div][/div][/div] [div class="tabsContent tabsContenttwo" style="display: none;"][div class=tabinfo]
I'm looking almost exclusively for [div class=text_background]horror rps.[/div] Be they uncanny, unsettling, cosmic, or gore, it's pretty much going to be spooks from here on out. The only exception is some [div class=text_background]ABO vaguely historical shit[/div] thrown in on the side under pairings.
I'm tired and gay, so I'd want to do [div class=text_background]minimal planning[/div] before beginning. We can get more in depth once we've begun and got a few posts in, I just need that initial dopamine hit to see me through.
I'm looking for someone who is [div class=text_background]18+[/div] to RP with. Not because I wish to write particularly sinful things with them, but rather because I am just so old and tired on the inside. I don't have the energy to be interesting to someone younger than that. (Bold of me to claim I might be interesting to anyone of any age, but hey, got to try prop up our failing self-esteem somewhere, don't we?)
I will expect anyone who would do me the honour of RPing with me to write [div class=text_background]2+ full paragraphs per post[/div]. This might relax a little once we're past the initial few pages, but one-liners don't appeal to my inner pretentious bitch, so I'm picky in that way. In terms of a maximum, there's no hard limit, but maybe try not to average higher than eight per post. Like I mention in the previous section, I'm a key worker still equipped with university essays; be gentle with my tired soul.
If there is to be romance, make it gay. [div class=text_background]MxM[/div] is my primary love affair. I can be persuaded to do FxF and I accept NB characters shipped with any and all genders. Additionally, I love, love, (repeat, LOVE) poly ships. 3-person relationships are my one true site of adoration, but I'm always open to groups of 4-5. I fear anything above is tricky for me to keep track of, but please, I am always (always) open to persuasion.
In terms of [div class=text_background]OOC[/div], you don't HAVE to ramble at me, I know I for one find small talk tricky in these lockdown times, but you're very welcome to. If I'm ever short with you, it's probably because these be strange times we're living in, not because I don't appreciate the rambling.
You must be comfortable with RPs and OOC banter containing the following content: bad jokes | swearing | graphic violent content | overly florid descriptions | queer shit | abbreviations and text speak (OOC only, unless our characters have mobiles/email/etc).
In regards to [div class=text_background]frequency[/div] I ask only that you can post [div class=text_background]twice a week[/div] minimum. For a maximum, you may post as much as you like, and I will reply when I can. You can expect the same standards from me.
[div class=text_background]Ghosting.[/div] These are weird as hell times we are inhabiting, and I for one know my mental health and general capacity to function are struggling. So if you need to ghost, you ghost. I would appreciate a note just letting me know you're bowing out, no need to tell me why, just so I can keep track of what I'm doing with my rp life. Likewise, I will aim to always notify you if I elect to leave a rp, for whatever reason. [/div][/div][/div][/div][/div] [div class="tabsContent tabsContentthree" style="display: none;"][div class=tabinfo]
I'm not particularly in the mood for writing any romance RPs at the moment. If romance factors into the RP, it'll play a background role, and the primary focus will be the world / the spooks. As such, this list will be fairly limited. There is a separate list below the first for those pairings catering to having ABO (Alpha/Beta/Omega) mechanics in play, though I'm always open to ABO mechanisms being applied to any universe.
* n/b for those unfamiliar with what ABO means, just ignore that part.
* I should also specify that pairings do not always mean 'romance' in the healthy, sweeping sense. As shall probably become clear shortly. The following list is a little dark. Welcome to my brain during the apocalypse.
► Priest with a military background x Leader of a demon/entity-worshipping cult who has come to 'make use' of the priest's town/village
► Possessed Individual x Their Exorcist
► Unfortunate Traveller x The Monstrous Creature they mistake for a dog feeding on roadkill
► Depressed Petrol Station Worker x The Entity that comes to haunt the desert in which rests their workplace
► Horse Ranch Hand x The demon/monster causing a witch hunt in their small town
► Spurned and Under-appreciated Detective x The Possession Victim/Unwilling Psychic they are forcing to help on hunting down a supernatural conspiracy the detective is obsessed with neutralising
► Psychologically Disturbed Individual who can communicate with the dead x Individual who is trying to solve the death of their family through the other
► New Tenant of a Haunted House x Whatever is haunting it
► Socially Ostracised Small Town Hick x The Thing That Lives in the Lake
► University PhD Student + x The Undergrad Student who may not be entirely human
[div class=text_background] ABO Dynamic Pairings [/div] ► [aka the Crimson Peak Rip-Off] A, An Omega recently married after a very, very short courting and engagement period x B, the Alpha they married, into whose (haunted af) home they have moved, and who is absolutely in this for the Omega's fortune x C, The Alpha Twin sibling of B, who simultaneously loathes (and perhaps loves, or at least lusts after) A.
► Heir to a throne who is concealing their Omega status out of shame (an omega monarch! the scandal of it!) x the Beta bodyguard who helps keep their secret x the Alpha courtier (rival court preferable) who finds out their secret
► The Omega Agent to the throne who seduces rival courtiers and nobility to extract secrets and information x Their monarch who has been begrudgingly in love with them this whole time

[div class=text_background]the body('s) walls.[/div] Cosmic Horror + Demonic/Entity Worship | Restoration Artists discovering that the Monastery they're restoring is haunted as fuck.
