Role Play Basics
Locations
I am comfortable doing:
-
Comment
- Chats
- Notes
- Forum
- Skype
- Google Docs - Other
My main go to for any RPs is Google Docs and forums. Note, comments, skype, and other platforms i prefer for small IC chit chat or HCs.
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!
One on One or small groups of three I prefer turn base. Small groups will be one post for every other two and interaction between all characters present. anything bigger then five is only for group moderated events only that i feel comfortable in.
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.
When Rping my post length depends on the length of my partner. Never preferring script RPs that only have one or two sentences, but don't except a full page unless it's the starter and even then lol...
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 lose motivation with RPers that only respond with one or two sentences, and don't like to read rps that are more then one page..
Role-play Requests
I like getting requests from:
- Anyone and everyone at any time!
- When I ask for role-plays.
- From friends and acquaintances. - From friends only.
All characters in active RP groups are open to RPs from members inside the group only. No interaction from characters outside the group to avoid off script interactions.
Corrections (Added by kiyokoamaya)
I am comfortable getting corrections when:- I missed something in your/someone else's post:
- I missed something about your/someone else's character:
- It's realistic/factual:- Other:- Never :Expectations (Added by kiyokoamaya
I expect my RP partner to:✿ have read my character app before we RP:
✿ read as much of my character app as is reasonable to go on before we RP:
RP Speed (Added by kiyokoamaya)
I usually reply:
- ASAP (within minutes) after my partner's post:
If it's HC or scripts lolol- within an hour:
- within the same day:
- within the same week: - within the same month: - longer than a month:
- at random/variable times:I expect my partner to reply: - ASAP (within minutes) after my partner's post:
- within an hour:
- within the same day:
- within the same week:
- within the same month: - longer than a month:
- at random/variable times:
Anything too long with a lot of reminding runs the risk of me dropping the rp and I prefer not starting a new one until it's been at least HC'd out a bit. RP Reminders (Added by kiyokoamaya )
I am okay with getting reminders to reply to an RP:- when I've mentioned I got something going on irl:
- when there is a deadline for the RP submission:
- after 5 or 10 or 15 minutes:
- after an hour:
- within the same day:
- the next day:
- if I haven't replied in a full week:
- if I haven't replied in more than one week or longer I check RPs everyday or every other day and respond to them depending on my iRL work scheduled. I never close my RP doc tab and will usually be seen lurking in them when I'm not. I normally type them out on a separate doc on my phone then copy and paste them all when I get home, because copy pasta on phone SUCK!!!I tend to remind people to reply to an RP:- when there is a deadline for the RP submission:
- after 5 or 10 or 15 minutes:
- after an hour:
- Within the same day:-
the next day: - if you haven't replied in a full week: - if you haven't replied in more than one week or longerThis section was a bit confusing so I'll explain. When I make a post I let you know through skype/notes. Afterwards if you still haven't responded I might remind you after a long period of time UNLESS i have a long stream of RPs that I don't really mind waiting even though that might result in you forgetting...
And lastly I don't have any max slots for RPs. I respond to them in the order I get them and try not to take more then a week when I get into a set routine. If i do find myself taking that long I will close them until I finish up all current ones.
Romantic Relationships
** Important: Communication is the key to a real life relationship, it shouldn't be abandoned for a fictional one either! Be sure to talk to your partners when considering romance!
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.
Touching
I am okay with my characters being touched if:- It's not romantic/sexual.- It's not violent.- It's something that usually happens (e.g.: shaking hands when you meet someone).
- You check with me first.- It depends on the character:
I'm actually ok with all touching (including IC flirty touching) aslong as you can respect the IC reaction to such. (I normally mention if acharacter is ok with being touched or a touchy character but i normally asked first) 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.
I'm strict about shipping my characters who are in rp groups, and while i prefer you straight up tell me you are interested this doesn't mean I'm going to dedicate 100% of my time on the relationship of our characters. i still plan on making an effort to interact with others and build friendships and allies. Also if I feel the characters personality are too opposite then i might decline as well.
((Some children you just have to greet the suitor at the door with a bottle of achaloc and a gun, thus chasing them off and ruining your child's chance at romance in order to protect them </3))
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.
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. Heavily depends on the age and how comfortable I am with the other RPer...
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!
I don't mind crack/joke ships with my characters if it's for OOC fun, but if it's for IC I rather see it before it's posted to confirm if it's canon or not, but lets keep ourdirty laundry on the downlow (coughs at Tashea )
Dramatics
** Important: Always be sure to communicate with your partner individually if you think you are about to go outside their comfort zones even just the slightest bit!!
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.
If you are going to do something violent, please:
- Don't do it at all.
- Talk to me about it first.
- Surprise me!
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!
