intro plurk? intro plurk!
small letter
good god alive it has been SO long since i've done one of these
small letter
HELLO ALL, i'm mala! i'm 29 and live in southwest missouri
small letter
i've been dating NowhereMan for approaching ten years now :-o we live with his parents and have a basset hound, roscoe, and a monster cat, athos
small letter
ah god i forgot plurk does that to :-o
small letter
oh no even `s dont help
small letter
:'O
small letter
ANYHOW
small letter
i'm currently BIG into puella magi. i have consumed every piece of canon i can get my hands on. at the moment the only things i'm missing are the games that aren't magireco
Haze Arquebus
mala's cool
small letter
it bums me bc most of them are now-ended mobile games and MMOs so I Shall Never Have Them. and they werent released stateside anyway
small letter
someday i'll track down a working emulation of the psp game. which. was also. never released stateside. BUT I WANT IT
small letter
also onwingsofvalor i protest. i feel like "cool" is the Wrong Word
small letter
uhhhh. OTHER BIG CANONS FOR ME are:
Haze Arquebus
well rad is too on the nose because of fallout
small letter
fallout, kingdom hearts, legend of zelda, final fantasy x, uhhhhhhhh
small letter
...peeks at muselist
small letter
yeah no thats the main shit
small letter
honorable mentions to potc, loveless (Hear Me Out Ok), fable
small letter
eventually once i get my hands on the pc version, red dead redemption 2 is gonna become REAL big for me
small letter
i do tabletop rp! a lot of it. my main systems are pathfinder, savage worlds, and some homebrew nonsense
small letter
i also fuckin Love me some farm game shit. i have some distant aspirations of making my own pixel farm game someday but that requires... consistent motivation...
small letter
uhhhhhhh
small letter
i also tumblr rp! though i'm on hiatus rn
small letter
this year has really liked kicking me and the last half especially so, so my motivation tanked and i was in the middle of remaking my blog anyway
small letter
(just to clean house, basically)
small letter
(i like using house metaphors with rp. in this case it's more like remodeling the entire building instead of just cleaning house)
small letter
i will repeatedly mention i haven't been in a dwrp game for a while, because it's true and i'm trying not to be too nervous about it
small letter
the reason for that being pretty much my ability to be consistent and make ac being stymied by mental health
small letter
motivation has been a Bitch but over the past couple years i've figured out executive dysfunction 1) exists and 2) it's a problem for me, so i've been able to figure out how to work with it instead of just beating my head against a wall
small letter
so thats why i moved over to tumblr rp for a while, because there's no ac and you can set your pace and it's easier to meet new people and etc because there's a bigger "indie" (independent of organized games) scene there
small letter
instead of that basically not existing at dw
small letter
i've actually had a good experience there bc i followed some good friends there, and i joined a good fandom for it too
small letter
but its let me keep my legs stretched rp-wise with new people
small letter
and helped me relax about some other things
small letter
and yadda yadda ANYWAY
small letter
starting small and light like how dualis is set up is perfect for me getting back onto the scene, i think
small letter
so i'm excited and trying to not worry too much
small letter
OTHER THINGS OF NOTE I GUESS
small letter
- anxiety is definitely a thing for me. mostly my anxiety plurks are going to be full of emotes and memes though
- i'm very forgetful. i have a memory like a sieve
- i'm also a huge loser which is why i protest "cool." i will accept "cute" and "chill" (this is actually funny) and "doofus" but i am NOT cool i am a DWEEB
small letter
small letter
ah fuck did i ever add bellamy to my dw muselist? I BET I DIDNT
small letter
small letter
ok now bells is on the semi-active list
ℙ𝔸𝕐𝔸𝕊𝕆
small letter
NowhereMan
Most of the above is true.
small letter
..........what isnt true
NowhereMan
We don't have a basset hound, we have a slug with feet.
small letter
okay thats fair
small letter
boosting this since i just ran around doing a blanket friend add for everyone in the game
small letter
also it's occurring to me that maybe i should change my plurk layout to be kyoko-themed since it's still link themed atm
small letter
but i dont know what i'd go with so
small letter
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
BLITZOFF
i should be asleep but hi5 being out of dwrp for ages/years buddy
BLITZOFF
we both in that same boat
small letter
/hi5!
small letter
it's both weird and exciting to get back on the horse
BLITZOFF
yeah! i had a friend on tumblr actually so did dabble on some writing there, though it's sooo different from dwrp
small letter
it really is. i tried to get into tumblr rp years back but didnt have anyone to help me, so i didnt end up sticking
BLITZOFF
so nice to have people not worrying about reply length tbh....
small letter
this time since i had friends to help me out with explanations and translating tumblr rp terms into dreamwidth ones, it worked out
small letter
i kept wanting to write my ooc intro like i was setting up my intro to my blog rules LMAO
small letter
"okay and here is everything you need to know about me ever-- no wait. thats what permission posts and plurk intros are for. uhhhhh shit"
small letter
something i appreciate about being back on dw too is that i dont have to explain that i play close to canon,
BLITZOFF
LOL yeah. i can call replies tags now?? BRAIN BLOWN
BLITZOFF
omg right
small letter
"i really like to dig in there and get into the nitty gritty-- WAIT THAT'S NORMAL HERE, THANK GOD"
BLITZOFF
i tried to explain doing that to someone before and they said it sounded boring
small letter
ghdghdgh
BLITZOFF
and i just
small letter
small letter
tumblr rp, i love the freedom of your format and being able to play at my own speed and set my own terms, but Good God Alive
BLITZOFF
yeahh if you can work it out for yourself and find some good people then i imagine it's good
BLITZOFF
but good luck to you finding that
BLITZOFF
i joined a group or two with a friend and it was like
BLITZOFF
ha.....aha...
BLITZOFF
(also being able to call groups GAMES again!!)
small letter
(right!!!)
small letter
luckily the fallout rpc is like... very chill. i mean. there are the bad seeds like everywhere else but everyone mostly stays in their separate corners
small letter
they dont have a lot of the pitfalls as other rpc too. there's less anti-oc, anti-female character, etc
small letter
and not a lot of pushing on reply speed bc the group trends towards older it seems
small letter
so i got VERY lucky
BLITZOFF
that's good!! unfortunately where i hung out there was a lot of mental illness stuff? so i was kinda hrrmm and didn't really stick around for long
small letter
oh no
BLITZOFF
and i roleplayed from pkmn so lol
small letter
i've eyed the FF scene from afar but from what i can see theyre all very fast and very large so i'm like "okay no i'm good"
small letter
ff/kh
BLITZOFF
HAHA no matter where you go
BLITZOFF
i honestly stayed out of FF for ages because wOOO that's a big scene and i've never been that deep into the series
small letter
it doesnt help that i dont play as much to the Tumblr Aesthetiques so i'm not going to be attractive to the popularity contest crowd
BLITZOFF
but i love FFX and finally here i am...
BLITZOFF
oh yeah i couldn't handle some of their fancy layouts
small letter
the style of my blog remake atm is like this so...
small letter
FFX is honestly my favorite
BLITZOFF
i used the /mobile page whenever i read replies
small letter
i set up braska's blog to be Aesthetique but then i was like "fuck it, multimuse"
BLITZOFF
same u_u i've always loved tidus and wanted to roleplay him and it seems WELL, let me just come back and roleplay from a really big rpg for the first time ever!
small letter
*aesthetics. plurk why have you decided to cut long link text
BLITZOFF
oh gosh i recognise THAT layout
small letter
lol right? i think it was very popular a little while back
small letter
i ended up tweaking it more than it looks in order to get the font size bigger than two pixels and getting everything to line up with the graphics
BLITZOFF
yeah tweaking your tumblr layouts is like 80% of roleplaying on tumblr
BLITZOFF
also lol, how was it coming to dwrp and writing an app
BLITZOFF
tumblr groups just be like "write a bio" for the most part
small letter
honestly the hardest part was adjusting to the format, bc i still wrote my bios like apps anyway
small letter
which is partly why i burned out setting up my multimuse bc i decided that for my main muses, i was gonna rewrite their ENTIRE BIOS
small letter
for all five of them
small letter
and then smaller ones for my other muses
small letter
/pours one out for my sanity
BLITZOFF
tumblr gave me an easy option and i took it
small letter
going back to essay format was rough
small letter
i ended up deciding to go into bullet point formats for my new bios so thats making life a lot easier...
BLITZOFF
i've always played from easy/simple canons so it's never been difficult to really simplify a history for me
small letter
i can still be thorough with bullet points but essay format is the Way To Write Apps
small letter
oh god. i've had to write a history section for a KH character from scratch more than once
BLITZOFF
omg
small letter
BLITZOFF
that's a no thanks from me
small letter
the kh wiki insisted (and still insists, the last time i saw) that xion is roxas' clone instead of sora's
small letter
and so i was like "god fucking dammit now i have to write this all myself"
small letter
and then there were the apps that required history sections to be written out instead of linked and my soul left my body
small letter
i'm glad the dualis app was light
small letter
even if i ended up tl;dr on kyoko's powerset, that was on the character i chose and not the app itself
CJ
Late to the party, but heya, I'm CJ, and I play a pair of tabletop OCs of mine
small letter
hello!!
BLITZOFF
i was once on a message board roleplay that was like "we want 1k minimum for a history" and that's the worst i've ever had with that personally
CJ
Oh god, that's ... that's brutal
small letter
Good Grief
small letter
honestly histories are always rougher on me than personalities
small letter
i can break a personality down twelve ways but writing a history section is like pulling teeth
CJ
For me, it's a coin flip. History is easy if the character has a relatively coherent backstory, but I've played comic book characters more than anything else and that's fucking brutal
BLITZOFF
thankfully i've always defaulted to HERE'S A LINK and thumbs up, bless wikis
small letter
oh god comic histories would be a nightmare
BLITZOFF
LOL YEAH
CJ
Superman and Superboy were my two mains for a very long time
CJ
and it's just 'Well, here's the stuff from the runs I don't think are bullshit ..."
small letter
one of my good tumblr rp friends is currently running 616 tony stark and she does the same thing LOL
BLITZOFF
"here's the parts that don't suck in an awful writing sense of the terms"
small letter
"well these runs are garbage,"
CJ
EXACTLY
CJ
like, i don't have a reference with Aleifr and Orren, but at least it's coherent
small letter
it's too early to think about these things but i'm still already considering who might be interesting future fits for me to app to dualis, and one of them is a tabletop OC who doesn't have an established setting, so his history section is gonna make me cry if i go that route
CJ
i mean, you've got my attention
small letter
his campaign is still in full swing so i probably would pull him from before his life got too crazy? but i do have a biosheet for him
small letter
he's from a modern setting with secret fantasy conspiracy underpinnings
small letter
he and his partner just got to have the fun discovery of "vampires are real and we may have been fucking with them for a while without realizing it"
small letter
we're playing it using savage worlds, it's a blast. (though we're considering maybe changing systems to gurps...)
small letter
although i could always be weird and app him as a tengu from pathfinder. that's his original incarnation
small letter
"whats up dualis here's a LITERAL BIRD"
CJ
I mean, that'd be fun as hell
small letter
it really would... the downside is i dont have his pathfinder history worked out. i need to get a hold of the cheliax book and dig in bc that's where i was thinking he'd be from
small letter
also kyoko and tidus are the sibling CR i never knew i needed
small letter
(also GOD I CAN CALL SHIT "CR" AGAIN AND PEOPLE KNOW WHAT I MEAN)
BLITZOFF
OH MY GOSH YEAH RIGHT CR
BLITZOFF
I MISSED THAT WORD. I KEPT USING IT ANYWAY
small letter
ME TOO
small letter
PEOPLE USING "SHIP" FOR NON-ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIPS DROVE ME BATTY
small letter
i wish i had a use for making promos tho
small letter
i love making promos

belated hello and welcome
small letter
hellooooooooo
small letter
i already have a regret. i added a lot of people at the same time, so:
small letter
1: i have a bad enough time associating names with who's who, but now amplify this by like twenty people
small letter
2: its been a long time since ive added a bunch of people on plurk so i'm no longer used to my timeline being very active
small letter
me like WHO IS ANYONE??? [looks at own red plurk name] WHO AM I??????
glamour ghoul
i’m so sorry, i change my display name so frequently
glamour ghoul
/is rae
Tairanosaur
Hi there! I'm Tai, and you will always know who I am on plurk because I refuse to use any display name that doesn't have "tai" in it somewhere XD I've also been a dinosaur for 2+ years now and feel no urge to change it any time soon
Tairanosaur
Over in Dualis I have this cutie whom I love and adore and will protect with my entire being. Welcome to the game!
small letter
hello!!! <3 ven is precious and must be defended
