Role Play Basics
Locations
I am comfortable doing:
Comment
Chats
Notes
Forum
Skype
Google Docs
Discord
TBH, I'm really only active on Discord, but I'm willing to try other methods. And forum is only red 'cause I'm not signed up for any; if there's a good one you like using, feel free to suggest it to me.
Participants
I am comfortable with:
One on one role plays.
Up to three people.
Up to four people.
Five or more people!
As big as possible!
With too many people I get social anxiety. But sometimes with one-on-one roleplays, I can feel a bit stressed if I'm having trouble thinking of a reply, since there isn't someone else to help. RPing with 2 other people is ideal.
Post Length
I usually write about:
One or two sentences.
One or two paragraphs.
Two to five paragraphs.
More than five paragraphs.
A few pages worth.
I tend to go with quick replies, like in an actual conversation, although I may go longer. Still, if my replies get to be over a single paragraph, I feel like I might be giving other people less of a chance to respond in a small roleplay, or the conversation may move too quickly in a large one.
I am comfortable role-playing with people who write:
One or two sentences.
One or two paragraphs.
Two to five paragraphs.
More than five paragraphs.
A few pages worth.
I like a quick back-and-forth, but I'm also certainly fine with someone who wants to write longer replies, and it may inspire me to write more as well.
Role Play Requests
I like getting requests from:
Anyone and everyone at any time!
When I ask for role-plays.
Mutuals.
From friends and acquaintances.
From friends only.
I'm generally cool with whatever, but I'm not always motivated to roleplay, and I do have social anxiety, so I may be a bit wary about roleplaying with a stranger.
Role Play Pacing
I prefer replies:
Immediately
Within an hour
Within 5 hours
Within 12 hours
Within 24 hours
Within 3 days
Within a week
Over a week
I do understand the importance of letting people live their own lives, although I don't want to risk losing the flow of the story by pausing for too long if possible. Also be warned that if you completely go offline without any warning or explanation for too long, I may get paranoid and think you died or something.
I am okay receiving reminders to reply: Immediately
1 hour after last reply
5 hours after last reply
12 hours after last reply
24 hours after last reply
3 days after last reply
A week after last reply
I may be forgetful, busy, or having trouble replying, or not notice there's been an update, and I don't want to be bugged immediately, but I do appreciate being reminded before I end up getting out of the mental space of the roleplay.
Romantic Relationships
Shipping
I am comfortable shipping my characters:
Never.
Our character know each other deeply.
Our character know each other deeply, and I know I can trust the role-player.
At the first sign of flirting!
Only if the role-player and I plan it.
It depends on the character.
I'm generally fine with shipping, howver some characters are for various reasons unshippable, and it really does depend on circumstances sometimes.
If you want to ship with my characters:
Talk to me about it from the start.
Talk to me about it once our characters know each other.
Talk to me about it once they both have some feelings for each other.
Talk to me about it when they finally decide that want to go beyond hugging.
Don't talk to me about it at all and let it happen naturally.
I don't need a warning from the very start, but if you think our characters would make a good ship, I would like to talk about it first.
Speed
When shipping my characters, I like the romance to happen:
Swift as lightening!
Fast, but not super fast.
Happens in about three months.
Slow and steady wins the race.
Slugs know what's up!
My relationships know no speed. They happen if they happen.
I'm probably good with whatever, although I don't like "love at first site", and some characters will need more time than others.
Smut
When my characters gets intimate, I prefer:
To skip the act entirely.
To write the build up, but skip the act.
To write the act only if it is very special, but otherwise skip it.
To write the act all the way through.
I'm a minor with no sexual experience and no experience writing smut. In general, I wouldn't be comfortable roleplaying it with someone older than me, but I also don't know if/don't think I'd be any good at it, so it's off limits for now.
Romantic Artwork
When it comes to artwork depicting our relationship please:
Do not post it at all without talking to me.
Post it if it is cuddles and hugs.
Post it if it is kisses.
Post it if it is much more.
Do not post it at all if it depicts sexual acts!
Do not post it where I can see it, but draw what you like!
With sexual stuff, same logic as with the smut: I'm a minor, and especially if I'm roleplaying with someone older, I'm uncomfortable with it. However, romantic stuff is fine, as is drawing stuff with my characters and keeping it to yourself.
Dramatics
Violence
When it comes to violent situations, I am comfortable with:
No violence at all!
I'm fine with verbal arguments!
Some violence, like a paper cut, or an accidental elbow to the face.
Mild violence, such as punching, kicking, hair pulling.
Violence, such as stabbings.
Beyond violence, such as torture and more.
Depends on the characters.
I honestly don't mind you hurting most of my beans, or I wouldn't have made so many of them DanganRonpa OCs, but it depends on factors like what OC of mine is being used, what OC of yours is, what specifically is going to happen, and also kind of on my mood. I just want a bit of warning first.
If you are going to do something violent, please:
Don't do it at all.
Talk to me about it first.
Surprise me!
Like I said, violence is fine but I'd prefer a little warning first.
Dramatic Artwork
Do not post any dramatic scenes that that happened between our characters.
Talk to me about it before posting!
Post what you like!
For dramatic situations, post whatever you want. It's fine if you surprise me too.
