Case Update
Some things to add to my most recent case regarding the Lupin and their constant shenanigans.
First, it's very sus that IMMEDIATELY after I make my initial investigation post, somehow someone is "archiving" my blog and THAT post specifically. Coincidence? I think not.
Tumblr media
Now you've went and updated your pinned post only AFTER I've posted my initial investigation.
Tumblr media
One, while there is a high likelihood that said blog was deleted, it seems to have never really existed. But as I cannot confirm or deny this based on tumblr's purging of old content, I will let it slide. Alhaitham voice: HOWEVER, you are using techniques that post date said last time on tumblr. If you were around in 2010, how do you somehow know how to use both statcounter (which, yes, has been around for a long time but there was another tool used before they actually implemented use for tumblr) AND IP blocking.
Now here's the funny thing I realized about the IP blocking.... the original script page... DOES NOT EXIST ANYMORE.
Tumblr media
Any attempt to go to freehostedscripts is met with errors. And that is why the codes no longer work as well.
So you LITERALLY would have had to nab it from either mine or Jess' pages!! Now, yes, you could have nabbed it from someone else but how would you know to do all that if you were SUPPOSEDLY coming back from a long time away from tumblr?? Why IP block at all? Makes zero sense. And I know none of these base themes have that implemented so you didn't get it from there either. So yeah, this is an unlikely story my friend.
Then, on top of that you just resume roleplaying with the same people you roleplayed with on your Alhaitham blog you abandoned because of the drama creeping up because of you. If you were not responsible for the Cherry Callout shit, then why not say that. Message one of us privately and clear it up. Otherwise, again, we're gonna keep people safe from you as you have damaged the community enough.

Three Teams Of [X] Has Two Hands
So we’ll start off the Team Posts with a group of teams I like to call ‘[X] has Two Hands’. Specifically, it’s the three teams where I paired them up specifically because they each had a specific character in both ships.
And funny enough, two out of three of them feature a Pines twin. Good for them, good for them.
Those teams are basically just ‘X character and their two significant others’ and I love the imagine them running back and forth to both sides of the bracket for each of their rounds on both sides. I also like to assume polyamory on their end, because cheating’s no good. So I feel like everyone’s in the know-how, everyone’s cool with it, and it’s all very sweet. 
Yes, I realize it will break some previously-established lore in the case of the first team, and yes, the phrase ‘[X] has two hands’ is pretty hit or miss for me personally (sometimes people like one ship and not the other, they’re allowed to do that). But it’s just for the sake of the tournament, nothing lore-breaking will be considered canon outside of it.
Is it a little unfair to have multiple ships with the same character, leaving less room for other ships with different characters to have made the cut? ...Maybe, but it’s my contest so I make the rules.
With all that being said, we have:
Team Dewey Has Two Hands:
Dewey Duck and Whitley Schnee Dewey Duck and Silver the Hedgehog
The first but certainly not last team to have a character from Ducktales 2017 (we love Ducktales 2017 here), both teams involve Dewey Duck and were automatic-ins, based on roleplays involving either myself or one of my buddies.
One of which involves him being still new to romance and also grey-aro, with a side of being caught in a ‘Protagonist Is Crushing On His Best Friend and Vice-Versa’ plot. Which would be so cool if it wasn’t happening to him specifically, but I’m sure things will work out.
If it’s not blatantly clear, this one’s one of mine and @crossovernonshipstournament‘s from our big Ducktales/RWBY crossover, which we’ve been working on for several years now. I’ll go more into that AU as I cover more teams but for now, we’ll just leave it there. Wait until Team Science gets here~!
I’m not entirely knowledged about the second one, but I’m sure with both Dewey and Silver having canon plots that involved time-travelling, there’s bound to be a lot of angst involved. Also knowing the submitter of the ship personally, I’m almost POSITIVE that there’s a lot of angst involved. ( @decanard Would you like to confirm~? 😉)
Team Dipper Has Two Hands:
Dipper Pines and Wirt Dipper Pines and Dib Membrane
Feels like the ships are pretty self-explanatory. Dipper deals with a lot of paranormal and supernatural things, so it’d make sense for him to be interested in other boys who are similar. Whether it’s dabbling in aliens and not being believed by anyone else outside of his sibling, or dealing with an ever-approaching threat that always seems to be watching from the darkness, it’s always nice to have someone there alongside you when dealing with the unknown.
Also I think if they all teamed up, they could so easily beat Zim, the Beast and Bill together. Or maybe they’d just avoid the last two, and go on to catch proof of Zim’s existence alongside Dib. Probably safer and less anxiety-inducing. And the last thing any of these boys need is to deal with more things that will spike their anxiety further.
Also just a special shout-out to @justadoll aka Doll, who asked me to include Wirt and Dipper. They have several ships they’re rooting for in the tournament (and I will absolutely give them a shoutout at that point too) but I know this is one of your super special ones and how much you love your boys 🥺
Team Mabel Has Two Hands:
Mabel Pines and Webby Vanderquack Mabel Pines and Gaz Membrane
Mabel Pines is full of love, whether it’s for boys or girls. But for this contest, it’s for girls~! Specifically one ducky girl and yet another Membrane kid. 
Honestly, I added Mabel and Gaz in because Dib and Dipper was one of the highest submitted ships, and I thought it’d be adorable to include the other side as well, but Gaz and Mabel really fall into the adorable ‘sunshine and gloom’ tropes pretty well (along with a few other pairings later on down the line, but we’ll get there when we get there). The person who submitted them said, and I quote, ‘it’s the dynamic of all time’ and I agree.
As for Mabel and Webby, it’s yet another ship that got in automatically, based on suggestions from my friends. Adorable autistic girls with grappling hooks, special interests, and just a love of their family? It’s just SO cute and fits both of them well.
Also another thanks to Lexi for suggesting the latter ship <3 We love the autistic girl rep over here!
That’ll be the three ships I cover for now; we’ll see which ships I cover next! Hopefully the other posts will not be this long, but who’s to say for sure because we all know I love to talk a lot.
Also if anyone has any other lore/propaganda for the ships mentioned in these posts, please feel free to add it in an ask/reblog/etc. Taking any and all if you got it, don’t be shy~!

[Soulmate Demons AU old arts / secret board]
Yes, we had drawings that we decided not to publish openly but to keep between ourselves, out of respect for our mutual friend who does not like this ship. ....If to think so, it’s kinda selfish, depriving people of such drawings by declaring and reminding under each similar art how much you don’t like it and putting pressure telling about being traumatized by this ship.. I no longer intend to hide it just for the sake of one person who, in the end, never was there for me after all their words and promises. If you happen to see this.. that's your problem, sorry.
Tumblr media
This is another art related to Dark or Evil Soul, and believe me, this is the peak of what these two are capable of in relation to each other in terms of vulgarity. Probably because I can't imagine anything more dirty between them.. and I don't want to.
Tumblr media
It was someone's bad joke (mine. Me and Corrupt didn’t get along very well back then, and I could afford such a prank). I'm still a little ashamed of it. Soul too, by the way. He freed him pretty quickly haha. What about Corrupt? He was quiet for a long time after that..
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is something very unfinished, but it's a whole story. WIP, if you call it.. Based on the fact that BF dislikes Corrupt very much, due to the fact that he himself was with Soul before, and due to the fact that he completely distrusts Corrupt, sees him only as a monster, and constantly expects some kind of meanness from him, saying that Corrupt just got in his way into Soul's trust and manipulates his mind. I still want to finish this even though quite a long time has passed. This is one of the things I don't want to leave unfinished, but there's a lot of work there. One way or another, as in the case of the “comics” about the Monster, this will be a separate post along with all the text that comes with it. In the worst case, it will only be text rewritten into a more detailed fanfic.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I think you have already noticed that I figure in moments like this.. don’t worry, Corurpt took revenge on me for such antics when he had such an opportunity. Well, BF and Corrupt more or less got along by that time too. It was a punishment, and that’s what we were roleplayed, I don’t remember how it started, it’s just that someone like this kind of thing. I wonder what it feels like to be forcefully licked....
Tumblr media Tumblr media
*sigh* ...This was originally going to be worn by Soul, but Corrupt ended up being the victim instead. Soul himself did not mind participating in this. Strange affair.. This is based on what my friend originally came up with, portraying it as if it were my idea (as if!). I'm not usually into putting guys in dresses, but I have nothing against it, I just don't understand it a little. It wasn't such a problem for me to drew it, but Corrupt hates this memory very much..
Tumblr media
I ended it when we stopped communicating. He's still following this board, but he probably didn't even notice it. Or pretended that I no longer existed, I don’t know.. Another shot from our roleplay. They fbeing forced to kiss due to the fact that both were under the control of voodoo dolls. Did someone (it was one of “our” corrupted OC, who at that time lived with them) just decide to ship them too aggressively? Funny, but weird. Going through these drawings, I experience what you people call “cringe,” but not to a strong enough degree. Just.. back then I didn’t think about what it looked like, because I just wanted to please someone I considered my good friend. Now.. this isn't even something I would normally draw. Well.. that's all for now. Not like anyone was waiting this shit.

Light: Hey, L, why do you like to wear dresses?
L: well, looser and more comfortable clothing allows for an increase in my deductive reasoning, it's less to worry about putting on in the morning, much faster than wearing a suit and tie,,,
L: and i can do this *puts their hands in their pockets and spins so their skirt twirls out*

EDIT: If you ship ebs then please know that I will slit your throat if you interact with this post. This post is not for you.
i wonder if the people who like. super clamor to go "tubbo and ranboo are uncomfortable with shipping so you shouldn't make content of their characters being romantic even if that's how their relationship is in canon" know that like. quackity is uncomfortable with shipping and therefore if we were going to apply that logic to quackity uh. bye bye to people making content of karlnapity, tnt duo, and schlatt/quackity (especially the latter because schlatt also doesnt like shipping) ig /s
like. yes respect boundaries and the absence of someone saying its okay for their character just not the cc the action taken should be to not put their character in romantic situations either but like. when they actively roleplay romance then its. fine to treat the relationships as romantic, even in fancontent
generally when i think about like. where to draw the line between creator and character (smp wise anyways) i just think of it as if the characters are the creators sonas. afterall, many have their sonas look different, or even act different than they do, they sometimes have them in relationships that either the creator is in or that they arent in. so when i think about "would the creator be okay with how im portraying their smp character" i just think of a combo of "theyve actively played into this before", "theyve given consent in the absence of playing into it on the smp", and "would it be okay to do this to someone else's sona/self insert"
so. treating the characters romantic relationships as romantic? yes, because the creators have already made a distinction between character and creator so they could play into the romance.
nsfw content? no, outside of some making jokes with friends, theres a big difference between making sexual jokes with friends and strangers making nsfw content of you/your sona (this is different from acknowledging a romantic relationship, because uh. the creators arent gonna rp sex in front of a bunch of children im sorry. the farthest theyre gonna go is the strip club and thats all jokes)
and generally unless the creator has expressed comfort with it i dont like to do things like change their bodytype or give them boobs or make sexual jokes about them/their genitals or whatever (and even then sexual jokes are like. unless a creator has given consent then this one i dont base on if theyve made sexual jokes because its one thing to do so yourself or with friends and another for strangers to do so abt you). because like. even if i was an adult id be uncomfortable with people drawing my sona with a different bodytype than mine or rating their body or calling them a slut or something. itd be gross
this got away from me but anyways. big difference between making content where the characters have relationships w/ the same tone as played by the actors and making content that goes farther than the actors take their characters/sonas

my experience with addy / hiqey
i’ve contemplated posting my history with addy/hiqey for awhile now. my friends have encouraged me to do so, but due to her stance in the rpc i was always far too scared to do so. with all that is coming to light with her recently, not only is a huge weight off my shoulders as far as comfortably roleplaying as my escape, but knowing i’m not alone. my story with addy dates back to about september 2018. i do warn you this will be long, and i’ll try to include enough details to make it make sense while not dragging things on and on. this includes both my personal relationship with addy, as well as my experience with her in groups one where she she was an admin, and groups where i was an admin. as well as i believe we coadmined one together. i’ve put screenshots where i could, but some of this dates back to 2018 and i just don’t have access to those texts/rp accounts anymore.
a huge huge shout out to @bumkeyz for starting this avalanche, and for also supporting me one on one along with all my friends to feel safe enough to come forward. i’ll put all of my story under a read more. 
i’m going to start this by saying, my name is mel/melanie. you may have heard of me because back when addy was on rpslayed she wasn’t a big fan of me for awhile. predominantly my group the cape(?) the main isn’t up anymore so i can’t remember the exact @. i’m 21 years old, i will be 22 this month. i am married & i have a 3 year old daughter. this is information i don’t normally tell people i’m married / have a child, because well, i just feel a little judged. not because anything anyone has specifically done or said, but my own anxieties worried that people will think it’s weird to be married with a child and still in twitter rp. but it is important to my story with addy, which is why i’m letting everyone know right off the bat. 
i met addy in a group called producers. this group is from september 2018, so i’m not able to access anything right now, but am digging. i played (feel free to clown me) a g-eazy character named pierce. addy played a carlson young who’s name i can’t quite recall, and a gracie abrams named lolly. lolly & pierce became friends first & at some point we exchanged phone numbers. lolly & pierce flirted a lot, pierce was a player yada yada. eventually she ended up getting a different ship on lolly & pushed her carlson young onto pierce. pierce had a different love interest & didn’t end up going for her. this should’ve been the first negative sign/red flag. when pierce didn’t get with her character, she got very short & snarky ic and ooc. i believe both of her characters blocked me ic. even though pierce had made no ic promises to either to not be with someone else. we still maintained some level of friendship, but she was extremely weird about when i mentioned my ship. our friendship ended for a few months because of an incident that started ic between me and another character. the mun who played this character and i had bonded ooc over having been pregnant, we talked somewhat often about her dealings with her pregnancy. so i felt close enough/friendly enough with this mun that when something happened with her character & another character ic i dm’ed her to see if she was ok .long story short it went bad. i texted addy and told her that. i explained that i felt as if this mun & i were close and it was like dm’ing a friend. she held onto the fact that i shouldn’t have messaged her. when i didn’t immediately conform to her thought she kicked me out of the group. i was literally devastated. i loved that group, that character, my ship; all of it. she blocked me. though this story is 2 paragraphs long, it’s minor in the grand scheme of things. after this she smeared me on rpslayed for months until our paths crossed again in a group called glitches/glitch? we decided to squash our beef. this was december 2019.
in december 2019 we became friends again. honestly, i wish we never crossed paths. we got very close right away. she started telling me about a bad friendship she had, with someone we mutually knew from producers who i will not name since it’s not my place to put their name in this, and gained my sympathy. so much so that i ended a friendship with that person based solely on accusations that addy had told me. this is something that i can now realize i did wrong. i literally cussed this person out on the phone, solely based off things addy told me. i didn’t listen to someone who had been my friend for months, who defended me and picked me up when addy was tearing me down on rpslayed. i turned my back because addy convinced me to. she made this person seem awful. and again, i’m not naming them, but they know exactly who they are. and when thy do read this, i’m sorry.
now this is where things get out of hand. addy & i begun an intimate relationship. this is very personal, and i know some may pass judgment. but my husband was cool with it. addy also began talking to my husband, they texted. we had a groupchat. not to get into details about the relationship, but it was romantic. i am going to try and organize my thoughts. into themes.
money
this relationship lasted from about january ish to april romantically. i became addy’s crutch. she began going through personal issues with her family. and i started sending her money. to be frank i don’t remember how it started. i helped her with a job search, supporting her through these tough things that were going on. the money started casually i suppose. it was $10 for lunch. $25 for nails. but then it got worse. i bought her a phone. and slowly she grew more entitled to my money. asking for it. demanding it. guilting me when i didn’t give it. i lied to her and told her i lost my credit card and turned it off, but the guilt i had i told her that i could turn it on when she needed it. in screenshots i will post below she guilted me because i was sick and fell asleep before turning my card on. whether what she’s saying occured is true or not, it was just one example of how she made me feel. at one point she had my credit card on her uber, and charged nearly $400 of ubers on my credit card that i didn’t know about. she claimed it was an accident, because i let her put my card on her account under the agreement that she would turn it off. we had an agreement of what she would pay me back, some things that i got her were gifts and i didn’t want/need back. other things it was always an agreement she would pay me back. however whenever i would mention sending me a payment she had an excuse. one time even guilting me by reminding me how much better i have it than she does. all in all i spent / sent upwards of $2500/$3000 on her. only about $1500/$1800 i wanted back. i never saw a dime back, she never made good on her promises. at some point i gave up on asking.
ETA: as far as the uber situation goes, she did apologize and state that it was never on purpose when i found out that there was nearly $500 in charges. she said she thought she was charging her moms card. this shows a photo of 1 page of a 5 page statement of all the transactions put on my card by her in one month. there are only 6 of these transactions that were me. all of the ubers and venmo were her. i didn’t make her take off my card, which in hindsight was obviously a very bad decision. i just didn’t want to leave her stranded without ways to get home/where she needed to be. 
this is her demanding money. this was in the summer. at this point i was so manipulated by her/scared of her/scared of losing her that i didn’t know how to say no. in this instance i deflected with a picture of my child. screen shot.
in the screenshots here, this is where i fell asleep. i was on vacation and got extremely dehydrated in the sun. i literally felt so sick and she made me feel guilty for falling asleep. X X X 
this screenshot shows one of the times i actually asked her when she would repay me. at this point my credit card was nearly maxed out from ubers and sending her money. i was anxious about it and she made me feel bad for asking because her situation was worse than mine. this was the same day she asked me for $250 for a down payment on her car. X asking for money. X making me feel bad for asking when she’s gonna pay.
literally to this day im still in credit card debt because of this. yes i make good money, yes my husband does too. but credit card debt is hard and everyone knows it. i do fine for myself, but i don’t have hundreds extra to pay this down. 
also, i cannot locate the bank screenshot. but as recent as this february, six months since she spoke to me, she still had my card on her uber and usted it again. i can’t find the screenshot of the actual of the bank transaction because i’ve completely had to close that account for fraud and transfer my balance to a new card. but here is a screenshot from february 12 where i tell my friends i caught her doing it. X .
manipulation in groups/related to groups
orbis. i ran a group called orbis, it was a reality show group. addy was one of my friends who really wanted me to open it. all of my groups i’ve adminned i’m the lead. i just always take on that roll so i do get very busy with them on top of my real life. i work full time and i’m a mom so i spread myself thin.she made me feel really guilty for this, saying i wasn’t giving her enough time, she wasn’t anyones dog. so i posted my unfollow. then she told me i was stupid for doing that. so i deleted my unfollow. then she said that me deleting my unfollow showed that i didn’t really care how she felt. screens. X X
lumeer. very similar situation to above. only this time i left the group completely for about 3 weeks. i called my coadmin crying about what she was doing to me, sent her the psds and templates for grpahics and left fully, though i helped them out if issues arose/they needed anything. 
impulse. this was recently and this got brought to the tags. im going to copy & paste what i sent to bumkeyz as far as the story goes for what happened.
“ what happened in impulse is only one of several examples of addy being awful in groups i've adminned. this goes back to our friendship but specifically here's what happened in impulse. addy played a character named briar, the other characters involved were as mentioned in other posts loki & khalil (fai fc). one of he first days of the group khalil hooked up with both loki & briar. when the "updates" account posted about loki & khalil's hook up (we posted any and all plot drops that were sent in, it was a reality show so we consistently updated what the cameras caught), briar got upset on main. addy then messaged khalil's mun ooc and asked for the plot to be erased. essentially because she didn't like that khalil had hooked up with both her and another girl in the same day/same manor. as odd of a request as i was the khalil mun agreed to wipe it & asked that if there was anything that ever came up again that made addy uncomfortable to please not hesitate to dm. addy then softblocked khalil. which is strange. why soft block with briar's reason to dislike khalil has been wiped? that night addy posted on her personal tumblr hiqey "i forgot all fai khadra fcs are weirdos" or soemthing along that line. the khalil mun reasonably got uncomfortable with that, but was softblocked & didn't tell the main. they just ignored it since their characters weren't interacting now. for the next few days addy continued to shade khalil and loki on main, despite any ic reason for disliking them being wiped. loki then approached briar IN CHARACTER asking what was wrong/why she was shading/why they didn't like her. i don't know all the details of that conversation, but i know it ended with loki saying she was going to block briar & briar saying that was fine. bear in mind the admins had no idea any of this was happening at this point. addy then dmed the main, playing victim. after more shading of khalil, khalil's mun decided to block briar as well. addy despite wiping this plot and having 0 ic communication with khalil continued to shade the characters ic. so addy dmed the main playing innocent. asking for us to have them unblock, saying she had no idea why they blocked or what she did. as admins we had no idea why either, figured it was something ic so we dmed both muns. khalil's mun agreed after some hestiation, and asked if they had to follow her and i said no. they didn't elaborate. loki's mun however refused, & i'm glad she did because she told us what was going on. of course once we were told everyting we didn't make her unblock. up until we told addy that we were not going to make those muns unblock her, she was extremely sweet to us. she praised us on her rpt. said she loved the group. fed the main compliments. but when she didn't get her way out of us, and was essentially told on, she started causing issues on the timeline with different characters. she sent us a dm on the main telling us to "learn how to handle your group melanie" and deactivated before i could get a chance to reply. “
what i didn’t tell bumkeyz is that deejay/rpslayed played khalil. another example of addy’s manipulation is that when she saw deejay getting anons she followed deejay and texted her after several months of no communication, starting to tell her side of the story and play innocent -- not knowing that deejay was the person who was behind khalil the entire time. she made khalil out to be the bad guy, not knowing that it was deejay. after finding out deejay and i were friends, when deejay posted on rpslayed for people to follow me shortly after trying to get deejay on her side, addy blocked us both (again). 
manipulation between friends (?)
i don’t really know a great way to title this, but this is similar to the situation i mentioned with the unnamed person above -- how addy made me think that person was the worst so i would stop being friends with them. this is a few more examples of that.
the entire time i was friends with addy, she told me that deejay hated me. she told me that deejay was convinced that i was this person who tried to get her kicked out of a group. she told me that she did her very best to convince deejay that it wasn’t true, but no matter what she did deejay just hated me. nearly a year later deejay and i cross paths in a group. we started talking ooc and i mentioned this. i asked her why she thought that was me. we found out that basically, while addy was telling me she was trying to convince deejay it wasn’t me, she was telling deejay that it was me. she would also tell me personal information about deejay that i had no business knowing, whether it be real life information or just telling me the groups deejay adminned when she knew deejay didn’t want anyone knowing. 
i have found out recently that addy has recently been telling people a lie about when she came to visit me. on one evening when she visited me in june of 2019, we went to my friend’s house. we both drank, and smoked. i am someone who neither drinks nor smokes, and i got a very bad mix from it. my anxiety sky rocketed. i was crying on my friends couch practically paralyzed. i didn’t want to move. i felt sick. i felt scared. my friends were going to drive us back to my house and shortly before we were about to walk out addy said she needed to go to the hospital. my friend’s boyfriend drove her there, and when he came back they took me home. this night is very blurry for me. i remember barely being able to see straight, my friend helped me walk to and from the car. addy has told her friends that i refused to pick her up from the hospital that night, and i’ve now heard this from two of her close friends. when in reality, i was so far gone that not only was i sick and scared, but i couldn’t see straight. i had absolutely no ability to be behind a wheel. i’m not surprised she twisted this against me.
i provided a few people screenshots where addy was telling me to block them/trying to convince me that they were awful and hurting me. at the same time that addy was telling me this, she was doing the opposite to them -- to keep us apart. i believe this is some sort of power. always wanting to be everyones number one.
i don’t have a lot of screenshots for this, so i won’t go into much detail, but i can say on more than one occasion, or more than five or ten she told me who to and not to be friends with. told me to block people who had been our friends who were no longer friends with her. 
flat out manipulation.
i don’t want to go back through my texts too much honestly. it’s still a sore spot. it still sucks and it still hurts. but i think anyone and everyone involved with addy at some point or another has similar stories about the way she treats her friends. there were points where i begged. begged and begged her not to leave me. i can’t even count how many times she blocked and unblocked me. how many times she made me feel the worst and then came back. she came back because she knw i was there. and that my generosity was practically endless. i couldn’t say no to her, frankly i can’t say no to anyone. if anyone dmed me today and said hey i need $15 for a ride home. i’d probably send it. that’s just how i am. addy completely had me wrapped around her finger. to the point that i left friends who were good to me. i left my own groups i worked hard on. i nearly ended my engagement (which cannot be entirely blamed on her, but the relationship she and i had was built off lots of manipulation). i know that i could go find 100 screenshots and texts of her manipulating me but honest i just don’t want to do that to myself again. she has made me out to be the villain to anyone she can. i have had 2 different people tell me that she told them i say the n word, which is the furthest thing from the truth. i fear the things she’s said about me to people. if she can 100% make something up, what can she twist from actual arguments or issues we had? 
i know this sounds like a lot of rambling for nothing. but for nearly two years i’ve lived in fear in the rpc of addy. less so when we were friends. i’ve feared telling my side because i felt invalid. frankly even as i type this im scared. scared she’s already convinced everyone i’m awful and no one will read this or care. i just am thankful that this finally came to light. i am glad that i won’t feel scared anymore. roleplay is my one place to be free. as a mother, a full time worker, i don’t have a lot of time for hobby’s and frankly i don’t have a lot of them. i don’t draw, or read. i like to write. and i’m just thankful this can finally be lifted off me.

1. Why did you choose your URL? It's literally just my first and second name backwards. Not much else to it than that. I had a good feeling no one else would have the same URL and it was a dumb thing me and my friends did and laughed about when we were in school.
2. Any side blogs? I have two but I don't really want to name them for shyness reasons, haha! I will say one is a life-type blog that I am sorely neglecting and the others a roleplay blog.
3. How long have you been on Tumblr? I think since 2012, so about nine years. I'm not entirely sure so I went on my blog and searched for what I know is one of my first ever posts (I know it's my first because my hashtags are so messed up on it, haha).
4. Do you have a queue tag? Nope.
5. Why did you start your blog in the first place? I genuinely have no idea. I can't even remember creating this account, let alone why I did. The only thing I can say is that I know some of the original things I posted/reblogged on it were posts about Vampire Knight and Adam Lambert, but I don't think either of them were actual reasons for my starting it.
6. Why did you chose your icon/pfp? I recently got back into anime and my favourite anime of all time is D.Gray-Man. It's fantastically written and the relationship between the characters is genuinely well developed, including the two characters in my icon. They're somehow enemies who still care for each other at the same time and they have some sweet moments together.
7. Why did you choose your header? It was a beautiful piece of artwork from a friend of mine for Curious Archer (Alice and Robin from Once Upon A Time) along with my OC characters as their children. I was so honoured when she did this drawing based off of one of my fanfics and I still look at it so fondly every time.
8. What's your post with the most notes? Pretty sure it's my Avengers Endgame post where I talk about how much I love the way Tony treats his daughter and how well the films made him a dad without changing his entire character. It's also a post I still firmly stand behind 100%.
9. How many mutuals do you have? I have 8, though admittedly we don't talk much anymore. Especially lately which is entirely on me. I've been struggling to stay in contact with people but I'm hoping to change that and start reaching out more.
10. How many followers do you have? According to Tumblr; 1,387 but I wonder how many of them are abandoned blogs because I do not believe that many people care about my ramblings, haha!
11. How many people do you follow? As of right now; 28.
12. How often do you use Tumblr a day? A lot. I tend to be one of those who clicks on it every half hour just to see there have been no changes, come off, and then check again in half an hour.
13. Did you have a fight/argument with another blog once? Oh boy yes! I've had many fights with other blogs but the worse one I remember being when I was in the Teen Wolf fandom. There with this girl who, quite honestly, was a vile and nasty bully who harassed me even after I had her blocked simply because I didn't drool over a celebrity she obsessed over. We went back and forth a lot back in the day but thankfully enough time has passed that I don't even remember her blog name and I doubt she remembers mine.
14. How do you feel about “you need to reblog this” posts? I think they range from a little annoying to disgusting (talking about the ones saying to reblog or someone you care will get hurt). And honestly, no matter what the cause, topic or reason, the minute I see someone telling me to reblog something I will purposely ignore it. Even if I agree with the whole message it has, I am that petty, I will skip past if completely it tells me to reblog it.
15. Do you like tag games? Yes! They're a lot of fun to do and interesting to see everyone else's answers!
16. Do you like ask games? Again, yes! For some reason I've always loved answering questions.
17. Which of your mutual do you think is Tumblr famous? To be honest I don't know about that. I think a lot of my mutuals are casual bloggers, or mostly on twitter or have gotten fairly quiet over the years. Unless I've got my head in the sand and it turns out I have a mutual others gush over without me knowing, which is entirely possible.
18. Do you have a crush on a mutual? No, not really. I love them as great friends I will treasure but that's about it.
I'm gonna tag: @rollyjogerjones, @lariskapargitay, @iescapedmayday, @superdupermary, @dimplesandcutesmiles, @of-monsters-and-werewolves and @onceuponanovel

Little Witch Academia Background Witch Ships
Hello everyone, back again with another post of mine! This time about my ideas on which BG Girls I ship together. Now yes, I do heavily ship Diakko, Chariox, Barbtte, Hamanda, whatever the ship name for Jasminka and Constanze is. But, I think this would still be fun to post about! I think it would also be fun if I put thoughts for how I can see these ships working. Also, some of these points were made by my friend http://shintorikhazumi.tumblr.com, so I'll be pointing out her ideas for how the ships work. Now enough chit chat, let the list begin~!
Avery x Mary
My Thoughts:
Avery x Mary goes something like this. Since Avery and Mary are in the same dorm room, they interact a lot. I can imagine Avery finding Mary annoying and idiotic at first, but after getting to know her more, she soon finds out that Mary is just pretty excitable and just wanted to be friends, yet is still rather idiotic. As for Mary, she doesn't take things personally so she just takes Avery's coldness in stride. After talking with each other, Avery and some point singing to Mary, and Mary showing Avery some movies she likes, I imagine that that's where the relationship starts.
Khaz's Thoughts:
I kinda fancy the idea of Avery hiding that she likes to sing at first, and Mary finding out in some random way, and tries to use the topic to get closer to Avery, but the latter gets annoyed with that at first, because it's something she never really shares with anyone.
Joanna x Kimberly
My Thoughts:
The thing about the LNNN Crew is that they don't have much on them, except Wangari. Wangari is a bit eccentric but she's also kind and always looking for interesting news. My friend says in Chamber of Time, Joanna is a lot more eccentric, the only thing they remember her doing is yelling about scoops and taking pictures. And Kimberly seems to be eerily quiet, always taking notes, basically really creepy. I've been roleplaying with said friend for more than a couple of years now, and we've had multiple rp's where I play Joanna to be perky, easily excitable, prone to getting easily distracted, hyper, a bit weird and strange most of the time, and very caring. We've kept Kimberly being eerie, pretty distant, rather even scary at times. However, she has a soft spot for her teammates, especially Joanna. Joanna loves to hold and cuddle Kimberly, and Kimberly loves how affectionate Joanna is. Wangari thinks its rather cute how they interact.
Khaz's Thoughts:
Yeah, you really don't get much to work with considering other characters. So even in writing, it's more like, left up to interpretation for most haha. Like how you write them, but built off this base you're given in the anime and minimal resource. That is an interesting take tho.
Sola x Rajani and Rashmi
You see, the two love Sola to no end, and Sola really loves them too. But, the twins are also rather possessive of her. Keep her close to them and even spying on her at times to make sure no one makes a move on her. They even do that thing where they stand behind Sola and do that scary-ominous-in-the-shadows-threatening-look you see in anime when someone tries to flirt with her. So yeah, they make sure Sola is their's to be that close with, and no one else.
Khaz's Thoughts:
So the twins are sharing? "Sharing" essentially? Haha~! That would make for cute balance dynamics, and playing around especially when they have those slight comparisons or jealous episodes. The healthy ones. It's one thing to be jealous of other people and protecting her together, then it's another if it's towards each other. That jealousy. Haha~!
Sucy x Irene
My Thoughts:
Well, for these two it falls mostly in line with their interests. You see, both Sucy and Irene love to prank people, and both aren't the best students. I imagine the relationship starts with them pranking each other, and getting spooked by each other's pranks. Sucy notices how small Irene is (like she's literally Constanze and Sola sized), and begins to follow her. Irene is pretty annoyed by this and constantly tells Sucy to go away. But, Sucy soon gives her advice on how to make her pranks better, and on how not to get caught. So, Irene starts to get slightly used to Sucy. After sometime, Irene starts to hang out with Sucy and even calls her a friend. But, her roommates don't like this, often trying to at times keeping her away from Sucy, and making her improve her grades. Sucy finds loop holes around this though, and sneaks her way to see Irene again. This develops into Irene's roommates and Sucy hating eachother, seeing the other as either an obstacle to seeing her friend, or as a bad influence that needs to stay away. Pretty soon, Sucy starts hugging Irene or picking her up. And this is pretty easy since she's small. Irene's pretty annoyed by this everytime it happens and always demands to be put down, with Sucy not really complying. Irene tries struggling, but even she can't deny it feels nice. Sucy says she doesn't know why she always does this, but it clearly bothers her that she can't explain this. After awhile, Irene is used to this and pretty much lets Sucy hold her. After that, Sucy realizes she's in love with Irene, and she clearly doesn't like that. She's not suppose to have this feeling for anyone, its too embarrassing! But, she soon caves in and tells Irene how she feels, to which Irene reveals that she felt the same way. And so, that's how their relationship starts!
Khaz's Thoughts:
The Sucy following Irene sounds so adorable! Especially if it's just Sucy quietly stalking after her, in that hunched, almost just a cape wrapped around her form like when they went to Andrew's. Seeing that image in my head. Irene whipping her head back to catch Sucy and the latter just stops moving, doesn't even flinch. And then when Irene walks again, Sucy just follows. And they just repeat this looking back and pausing, then back to walking and following.
Bianca x Aileen
My Thoughts:
Basically, Bianca is Luna Nova's student chef, and makes all sorts of magical dishes, she's even hoping to start her own restaurant in the future that makes magical dishes! Aileen loves Bianca's cooking, and can accurately name the ingredients Bianca used in her recipe in her sleep when she sleep-talks. I can see this forming a relationship, starting with Aileen helping Bianca cook, Bianca always going to Aileen when she makes something new, and Aileen wanting to make Bianca's dream a reality. Aileen could even give Bianca a cute nickname, like "Her Favorite Chef!", or something like that. Anyways, that's pretty much what I got for these two.
Khaz's Thoughts:
I can see them having little games when hanging out, like Bianca making Aileen guess which among a set of three similar dishes has a different ingredient, and what ingredient that is, making bets and such. And whenever they go somewhere fancy for dates, Aileen will always tell Bianca that she cooks better to which the latter will either blush and tell her thank you or to knock it off while being embarrassed. And to stop flattering her, while Aileen pouts and mutters "It's true tho...".
Heather x Daisy
I don't really have to say much for these two since in canon, there is a hint of them being an item already. Heather likes to sweet-talk with Daisy and flirt with her, and I can imagine that Daisy takes a liking to this. So, I can see that relationship forming pretty quickly. Plus, Daisy often calls herself the cutest witch in the world, and Heather and their roommate Rosie are the only ones who will constantly agree with her. Yet, I imagine Rosie does this mostly to be polite, while Heather does this out of a genuine love for Daisy. So yeah, pretty easy to ship these two.
Khaz didn't have extended ideas for these two, but she thought they were cute together.
Maria x Carmen
Well, Carmen "Wishing to become an ojō-sama-type person, she became cold towards Akko. Carmen is also noted to be very stubborn and doesn't change her opinions very often.". While Maria "Is a pessimistic girl who is always worried. She finds the solace in brewing potions but, everyone dislikes nearing her due to the smell from her concoctions." Well, I imagine Carmen would be often cold and cruel to even people she's fond of, unintentionally pushing them away. Her stubborn attitude also prevents her from giving up old habits easily, or changing her mood even when she knows she's in the wrong. So, Carmen often is cruel to even her friends, especially Maria. While I imagine Maria is depressed and will seek comfort in others since she has very few friends and is pretty much starved of genuine human contact and love 88% of the time due to her smell. I imagine that even talking 18 baths a day wouldn't get rid of the reached smell! Carmen never means to do this, she just isn't the type to change her mood easily. But, there might have been a part of her that did hate Maria at first. She was ashamed of her. Ashamed of herself. Not that that was right of her. And she knew this. She still had enough of a conscious to know this wasn't right, and started to feel bad. She really regrets this . She thinks Maria is cute and often thinks of asking her out. But, her bad attitude and mean spirited behavior makes her think that that is impossible. But, it hurts her to know she's hurting Maria by doing this. That, and Maria's smell tends to repulse her. Plus, maybe her incompetence with money and her failure to become wealthy makes her more enraged. Along with Akko's antics and her dream of becoming a wealthy young lady of high class society slowly becoming impossible. And because of this, Maria becomes more depressed and opens up to the few friends she has. Also hurt that Carmen, a girl she likes, treats her so cruel. It would take a lot of time and work for them to get together.
Khaz's Thoughts:
Oof just the first lines of these two got me hurting. But I think because of the stark flaws they have, there's a lot to work with. It would make for quite the dramatic slowburn, and if the payoff is done well, it would feel real great.
And this is it~! Thanks for taking a look if you did, and I apologize to Khaz heavily for taking so long to finish this up and post this!! But, finally I can got this out! I hope you all enjoyed, because intend to make more posts involving these lovely couples, and even more of them, in the future. So, yeah, have a great day and/or night and stuff.

LF Undertale RP (Plots and Stories)
Hello! I’ve entered the Undertale fandom about five years late and have a mighty need to do some roleplay in that particular universe and a number of the related AUs. I am looking for individuals who are 18+, who are comfortable with mature as well as darker themes (violence, sex/sexuality, psychological elements, racism, etc.) and who are comfortable with canon characters and OCs in an RP setting.
I am looking to do 1x1 with myself and the other person taking on the roles of multiple canon characters (cross fandom friendly!) and OCs (OCs aren’t required but I like giving people the option for it) with the other person at least being able to play Sans the Skeleton (canon and most AUs accepted) and/or Underswap Papyrus. Yes, I’m willing to double up :)
Below is further details including AUs I’m interested in dabbling in, plot/storyline ideas, information about myself, characters I’m interested in playing, and other need-to-know’s since I’m still coding my blog! The best way to reach me if any of this is of interest to you is to boop me either in DMs here or over on discord! ---> Lilacs#8103
About Myself! I’m a 25+ year old woman who has been RPing for a little over 20 years! I do a lot of RP between discord and MMOs and met my husband over an MMO about 7 years ago! We’ve been married for over 2 of those years :D I love world building, reading, cooking, and harassing my cats. Below are some writing samples! Larger ‘World Building’ Style Post || More Average Sized Post || My Stories on Ao3!
What I Can Provide! - Active Posting: I only work a few days a week so I’m around a lot and this is RP I’ve been craving for weeks so it would have a lot of my attention! I’m AZ so my timezone fluctuates a bit but I’m typically active between 11AM-1AM PST (give or take a few hours depending on the day of the week). - An Extensive Roleplay and Storytelling Background: I’ve ran RP groups and guilds across mediums and games from plots that involve over a dozen people to cozier one-on-one dynamics. Some places I’ve done RP is Discord, City of Heroes, World of Warcraft, MSN Groups, MSN Messenger, Guild Wars 2, Final Fantasy 14, forums, and many others! - Memes, Shitposting, and More: I love to chillax inbetween writing. I will absolutely drown you in headcanons, drabbles, musical inspiration, and whatever else! You scream I scream we all scream for skeletons. - Literate Responses: I typically do 3-6+ paragraphs a post depending on the scene and circumstances. Especially for the kind of RP I have in mind where we’d basically be fleshing out a world between ourselves that will often have cameos from other characters as need be. - A Love of Every Theme, Like, Ever: I have written just about every theme/genre out there and there’s very little I won’t indulge in either for my sake or my writing partner’s. From the fluffiest of fluff to casual slice of life to gruesome horror and crazy adventures. I typically blend a little of everything into what I do and have a habit of putting characters through their paces before giving them a reprieve only to do it all over again.  LGBT+ Friendly: I’m a pansexual polyamorous woman who loves everyone and everything that has ever existed.
What I’m Looking For! - At Least a Post a Day!: I’m looking for someone who is able to be active on a similar level as I am. Ideally an individual who can post multiple times a day but I’ll settle for once a day since RL happens. I’m currently doing a Mafiafell plot with a friend and as lovely as it’s been they only post every few days or so and I’m itching for something more active! - 3-6+ Paragraphs on Average: I don’t expect novels and quite frankly I tend to lean closer to 2-4 paragraphs on average myself! But I’m not interested in someone who can only do a few lines at a time, either. - Someone With a Love of World and Story Building!: I love those with creative, active imaginations. A number of these plots will involve having to flesh out particulars together and I don’t want to be doing all the work while someone goes ‘idk’ in a corner. I want us both to love what we’re writing together and to pour a little of ourselves into it :) - Openness to RPing Mature Themes: I tend to incorporate a lot of mature subject matter into my writing. Smut, gore, substance abuse, elements of anxiety/depression, violence and more aren’t strangers in my stories. I find that opening a story to such realistic elements adds a richness to what can be written. Of course I’m happy to abide by the comfort levels of another and to be respectful of triggers/limits, but if you’re easily squeamish then writing with me probably isn’t the best thing for you! - Acceptance of AUs/Multiverse: There’s a chance of Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey things to happen in most of these plots and an open mind to such is super appreciated! A number of these plots may also deviate from canon and enter into more AU territory depending on how we progress certain things. - OC and Canon Friendly: I like to use both canon characters and OCs in most of my RPs and plots. I know some prefer one or the other and preferably those interested are fine with both.
The Characters and AUs! Below are characters I’m interested in playing as well as what I’m interested in seeing being played. As I mentioned above the only real hard request I have is the other person involved is able to play a Sans and/or Underswap Papyrus. Interested in Playing: Both adult and child versions of Frisk (depending on the RP/AU), Papyrus, some Sans’, Undyne, Alphys, Toriel, Mettaton, OCs Interested in Seeing Played: Sans, Papyrus, Grillby, Asgore, OCs, and pretty much any other characters you’re comfortable playing! As stated at the top, I’m also cross-fandom friendly! AUs I’m Interested In: Some of Underswap, Underfell, Flowerfell, Mafiafell, Mafiatale, Undertale, Swapfell, Horrortale, Dancetale, Axetale, Undersail, Synthtale, possibly others!
The Plots/Ideas! I have more ideas than what’s listed here but these are some of the biggies! - Boats and Birds: This can take place in multiple different AUs or in the canon depending on how we want to set it up. This plot loosely follows the events of the game except Frisk isn’t alone when they land in the Underground and instead is accompanied by a relative that happened to be with them on the mountain. Said relative would be an OC of mine and either their cousin, sister, or mother (the mother angle being that they had Frisk quite young as Frisk would be a child in this plot and their mother would be in their 20s). While traversing through the Underground, Frisk and their relative would be trying to figure out a way to break the barrier in a way that doesn’t involve sacrificing a soul. This plot idea is loosely inspired by the fanfiction ‘Would That Make You Happy?’. - The Iron Door: This is much more AU/Multiverse friendly and is based off ideas I’ve had that I put into a story already. Frisk’s abilities with the RESETs and SAVEs has revolved to the point that they can travel across multiple timelines and verses at will. They can’t leave the Underground during any of these travels but when you can go virtually anywhere it’s not like it matters. I’d be interested in playing Frisk, Chara (who is joined with Frisk), and an OC for this particular plot along with any other characters as the characters investigate the fracturing state of the multiverse. - After All’s Said and Done: Most AUs or just the canon (from true pacifist to a near genocide playthrough) can fit into this, as it’s involving exploring what happens after the barrier is taken down and monsterkind acclimates themselves in the surface world. Human beings have mixed feelings about monsters being in their world and this tends to cause a LOT of problems as monsters are just trying to learn how to adapt to finally being free. Would involve a lot of mini story ideas depending on how myself and those involved would want to further develop the setting! - Housemash: This is less a plot and more just a very casual idea of having whatever characters we want living in one big house together and letting shit steamroll from there. Would involve canon characters, OCs, and even whatever other fandom characters we’d want to squeeze in for shits and giggles.  As I said before there’s more but here are the big ones off the top of my head!
Additional Notes - I’m super open and flexible to playing a lot of characters and catering to the desires of my partner. That being said I am hoping to have a Sans/OC or a Sans/Adult!Frisk depending on what idea gets settled on.  - For most versions Sans I tend to lean towards them having at least loose knowledge of the RESETs. Tends to add a healthy dose of angst and headfuckery that way. - Openness to polyamory, harem/reverse harem, and A/B/O dynamics a plus!

How 2 RP
EDIT: I have edited the post a bit, since i looked it over and got some feedback from RPers. And i can now see that the original post was a bit unfriendly towards a certain group. That was not my intention to come over at all and i apologize if i offended some people that way. Here is hoping that the updated part is more neutral and appealing to those who want to start RP.
Introduction:
Hello everyone! My name is Masao, and i wanted to write a bit of a tutorial on how to RP. This will be in several chapters, and going over several things on how to make a character, certain terms,lore, handy links and more. If there is enough interest in this, and of course if it helps enough people, i will type and release more! If you feel like this helped you out somehow, or think that it can help others, please consider spreading the word, and getting this to someone who wants to set a first step into the RP world of Final Fantasy XIV.
Chapter 1: Where do i start?
Welcome to the guide on how to RP. You are probably wondering right now: Where do i even begin? Well, with this guide, we hope to get you started a bit. 
So when it comes to RP, you roleplay a whole another character. Some people might be furrowing their brow now. As in, how do i even do that? Well, what i mostly do when it comes to mine, is:
I take inspiration from other games/movies/series.
Like for example...
Tumblr media
Take Masao here. A Xeala who has been Reincarnated into a Dotharl. A grumpy man who has a hidden kindness to him. He does not know Eorzean well, but his favorite Eorzean word so far is ‘‘Fuck.’‘ Sounds familiar? Because its based off Geralt of Rivera! You don't have to copy a total character of course. You could take bits and pieces to mold your very own. When it comes to playing someone, there is only one super important rule. And that is:
Play what you enjoy, not what others enjoy.
When it comes to RP, there are people who may play differently from how you RP. This has to do with Lore.If you wish to know more about lore, i would suggest looking at this link. And people always look different to it. Some people might want to abide by lore without any bending it. Some might enjoy the lore bending by a bit and some might even not abide to the lore at all. Whatever you choose, is totally up to you, as long if you can respect the aspect of what ones chooses. When it comes to roleplaying in groups, its mostly give and take. But when you work together, and mold it into something, it can be super fun and rewarding! You could get character development, or even friendships! But stick true to your own believes, and RP with the people that find your charachter enjoyable. Because after all...
Its your character.
Now, when it comes to in game RP, there might be some terms that confuse you, or how to do certain things. Let me help with that! Lets go over the most important things:
IC: This stands for In Character. This means that whatever happens IC, stays IC. So if someone calls you a asshole IC, that does not mean they think that you as a person are one. Your own actions are the same, they are all bound to your character, not meaning you as a person would do that. What brings us to our next term..
OOC: This means what we are now! How i am typing and talking to you. It stands for Out of Character. When it comes to this, there is one rule that you must always abide to, no matter what. Keep IC and OOC separate! This is important! It's mostly important because a lot of people tend to mix them up. What you should NEVER do. What happens IC, stays IC, what happens OOC, stays OOC.
MRP/ERP: A lot of people have this in their search info. So let me go over some of the terms. MRP stands for Mature RP. This means that the themes that they RP, are meant for mature audiences. Think of like blood, murder. Like a mature movie or game. That is what you can expect from that. ERP...Well, you probably mostly already know. But let me go over it briefly. It stands for Erotic Roleplay, and contains well..That. There might be some people who are only focused on this when it comes to RP, if that stuff makes you uncomfortable, don't do it. You really don't have to ERP to get the best RP experience or whatever. Do this only with people you trust, or with your SO. Or don’t at all! Its totally up to you.
ParaRP: This refers to people who write in Paragraphs. There is also Semi-Para. Or Multi-Para. Some people who RP write long walls of text, or write very little. Everyone has their own style of writing. Do what fits you the best! Here are some examples.
Semi Para:
Masao walked through Gridania as the sun shined on his black scales. He squinted towards the sky and let out a little huff. Seems like today was going to be a warm day, but a good one for a adventure or two.
Para:
A sudden memory flashed before his eyes. A lonely house stood in a filed. It seemed abandoned by all local life. Masao entered the little shed and looked around. No one, as expected. He thought to himself. But in the blink of a eye, the shed caught aflame. He was surrounded by fire. Voices were heard around him. ‘‘You deserved to die.’‘ A voice rang out. ‘‘We should have never taken you in.’‘ Another one called. And as it all played out, Masao was suddenly back to his senses. Was it something from his past life? Or was it something that was yet to come?
Those are most of the things you need to know! Now lets go over some extra in game things that you might would like to know:
If you wish to make a custom emote in FFXIV, you start a post with /em. So for example: /em looked towards the Miqo’te and gave a little nod.
When your character talks, this is mostly done with ‘’. A example: ‘’Yes, i think a drink would be fine.’’ There are some races who talk in another language. This is mostly done with <’’> Or with [’’] So it would look like this: <’’I don't know if this Eorzean can understand me.’’>
A lot of people in FFXIV have a certain RP tag above their head. If you wish to turn this on, press the O button on your keyboard (Or whatever button you have bound to the Social tab. It will look like this: If you are in that tab, you also see a little text bubble next to your name (You only see this if you wrote something down.) You can put a little description about yourself!  To change this, simply right click on your own name, and select: Edit Search Info. Now, you will see some new options. A Search comment down, where you can edit your little description of yourself, and a dropdown menu that says Online, Busy, Away from keyboard and such. And down there, is the option Role Play! And there you have it! Now you have the RP tag next to your name. You also may be seeing a lot of people walk around. You can do that by pressing the / button. That was my chapter one of How 2 RP. I hope it helps you, and if you have any questions or need some more tips, let me know! You can either send me a question here, or you can add me on discord: Masao#2913 and i can help you there too. And just remember: RP might be a bit scary at first, but the community in here is so amazing and helpful, i am sure they would accept a new RPer with open arms. My tip would be to if you start with RP, try with One-on-one RP first, with your friends, your FC members, maybe even your lover. So you can get a feel for it, and so you can find out if you really like how your character is. Maybe you want to change something a bit, or maybe you even want to change them completely. Go what feels right, and what makes you happy. Thanks for reading, and i hope that you have a nice day!

-------------------------
Q & A With The Writers!
During this live stream, we asked everyone to join in and ask questions to the writers you want to know more about...the write up is below :)
- If you could collab with any other writer on here, who would it be? Alex ( @whatareyousearchingfordean​​) : @superfanficnatural​  because of the male reader aspect/sides of things! 
Emory (@emoryhemsworth​) : I’d like to collab with @winchest09​ (Tabby)
- Has anyone ever guessed the plot twist of one of your fics before you posted it?
@talesmaniac89​ : This did happen once and what was once a fluffy ending got turned into a bad ending because it was guessed. It happened once that they managed to get it so i changed it. 
- What was the last line you wrote?
@katehuntington​ :  “The cowgirl smirks and gently pushes him into the tack box in order for them both to be out of sight. Once they are safe from Bobby’s eyes, she kisses him, short and sweetly, but it’s enough to make Dean’s head spin”
- Have you ever cried whilst writing a fic?
@superfanficnatural​ : I cried to one last time, the angsty fic i wrote. I  was trying to get into the mood, i was mad, so went fuck it i’m gonna break peoples hearts. And then i cried haha.
- Can you tell us what writers you really admire?
@emoryhemsworth​ :   All of you are included in this live stream, that’s a given but I am going to talk about people who aren’t in here.  @impala-dreamer​, @kittenofdoomage​, @supernatural-jackles​, @ravengirl94​ are just a few. In regards to Rhi (Kittenofdoomage), everything she writes is just gold. She’s not written anything that’s bad! For Beka (impala dreamer) I just love her as a person. Oh and @bringmesomepie56​, her fics are just amazing.  
- Have you ever amended a story due to criticisms you’ve received after posting it?
@flamencodiva​ : No, not really. My stories tend to evolve in the writing process. Underworld princess and Call of the Ocean were meant to be super different than what they are now. We realised we had changed certain plot points as we were writing but that was before we started to post it. 
- Are there any stories that you wished you’d ended differently?
@winchest09​ :  Yes and no. I’ve had stories which were originally meant to end a certain way and they changed over time. Sometimes I do wonder what the reactions would have been like if i had gone with the original ending for Shatter Me and if hadn’t have gone down the angsty road for Yesterday but then I think fics choose their own path as you write them. It felt right at the time. 
- What is your favourite genre to write for?
@malfoysqueen14​ :  Angst. Never mind the fluff, the smut, the crack, it’s all about the angst. The angst is my ultimate goal. 
- Where do you get your inspiration from?
@imjustadrummer​ : A daily situation, or films. If the kids I worked with have said something weird i’d be like…”oh yeah, hey that can be a fic!”  A lot of different places really!
- Funniest story you’ve written?
@queenbeesback​ : It was an online thing, where they met online and it took a while for them to meet up. That was quite light hearted. 
- What is everyone's favourite ships?
Everyone: Dean and Donna. Benny and Dean. Sam and Eileen. Dean and Jo. Charlie and Alex. Sam and Gabriel
- What’s your favourite trope to write?
@anathewierdo​ : Friends to lovers and enemies to lovers
- Which part of your upcoming fic was the hardest to write?
@imjustadrummer​ : Trying to work out all the clues and cleverness to it. Like codes and things, working out how to put in all the easter eggs in my upcoming fic. It’s like a treasure hunt so I need to ensure there is cleverness in there.
- If you could write only angst, fluff or smut for the rest of your writing life, which would it be and why?
@superfanficnatural​ : Oh that’s...ok...most definitely...Smuuuuttttt (pretty much how he announced it)
-------------------------
I think that’s it!
Thank you so much once again to everyone who joined the chat, we had 6 hours of laughs and i cannot wait to do it again. I’d appreciate it if you could share this to spread the love of the fics and authors on here!
Keep an eye out for the next date for our next livestream! It will be in a couple of weeks, date to be announced. If you guys have any idea’s or want something included, let us know. If you want to be tagged when we announce, let us know!
@deanwanddamons​ - tagging you babe as you asked so you can catch up on what we talked about <3 
THANK YOU.

An Apology - Please Read the whole thing
Last year around August, I joined an ego discord server. It was a wonderful server run by someone I still think of as a friend, even if we don’t talk anymore. And for good reason. I was not kind then… and I realize now why. It wasn’t a good place for me, and perhaps it wasn’t a good place to be after so much had happened within. The inner circles of that place were run differently then I would have liked, at the time. We had a Not Safe For Work chat that was only open to those of age, 18 or older. I was very overly sexual, and it upset and made some people uncomfortable. I wanted to be sexual with people I thought were comfortable with it, and at one point they probably were. But as I kept going, I assume it quickly became bad. People messaged me about it, and I was quick to apologize. But I was still angry. 
I never publicly expressed this, but I did to this friend.  I wanted to be in a relationship with him, and when he said no I got angry, annoyed. I tried to open his eyes to what life actually was, and how he couldn’t be this person forever. But it wasn’t my place. I did some awful things I’m not proud of. I say some things that I know now are wrong and I left. It wasn’t right of me to control them, or try to let them control me. It was very different than ‘the group of friends’ I wanted them to be. I wish now that someone had opened my eyes to what I was doing and I didn’t have to do it myself. But that is the best way to learn.
During this time I was in another server run by Bird of Prey. He was very kind to me, the other people on the server let me rant out my troubles and I thought I had found friends. This was all around my birthday, when I finally left the other server for good. During that time several people had blocked my old friend over things that I had told them. This brought up some screenshots of our conversations and Bird of Prey brought it to my attention. I was upset and confused, hurt that someone had taken private screenshots and shown them to him. I explained I was not proud of what I said. At this point I had realized that it wasn’t right, that it wasn’t my place to control him or what he should be. I was regretful and deeply sorry for what I had done and I was trying to change. He, thankfully, supported me. And it was something I was truthful about. Even now, I am trying to change. And I will forever be grateful that he came to me, to hear my side.
By this point I had created my own server on the side, asking some friends if they would like to join. It would be a smaller server stemming off of the one Bird of Prey had made. My own manor, where we could do as we pleased. I will say, I had mostly created it for nsfw purposes, but I picked who was able to join based on how I knew them on Bird’s. Every member was over 18, I made sure of this, having dealt with minors accidentally getting into other servers before. Here we could roleplay our characters, our egos, and ourselves as we pleased. We had a pair of great months, at least from my perspective. We roleplayed and grew our characters and I loved them all. I was very close with two of the members and I had hoped to visit them this summer. But this is where the trouble happened. I will now tie together the original call out post by Starybinch, and my own experience.
There were a few things that upset me, specifically over Starybinch’s egos. I was at one point very close to his Blue Google: Beta. Beta was someone I cared deeply for, I wanted to rp and talk with him and do so many things. But Starybinch stopped roleplaying him. He had mentioned off hand that someone kept bugging him about him. I knew it was me, I felt awful. Suddenly all of Julian’s egos seemed rude to me, mean and accusing of so many small things. I wish I had talked to him about it straight on, especially since I had a hunch the reason he wasn’t playing Beta was because of me. I’m a firm believer, after everything I’ve done, that talking it out is the best action. We were both adults, both people perfectly capable of placing out our differences and trying to find common ground. But I didn’t. And I believe that was my fault. I wish I had. I was angry and upset that everyone else was getting their Google bot interaction, and everytime I tried to do something, they would lash out, even after I tried to apologize. But I believe that all ties into the next thing.
Hindsight is 20/20. I fully believe this. As we roleplayed I jumped into conversations with egos, I tried interacting where other people were busy. At the time I thought I was not doing anything wrong, nothing anyone else had done. It was rude of me to do these things. However, it was too late when I realized how sevier this problem was to others. I realized this when Starybinch’s Host lashed out at me. I was deeply hurt, and truly sorry for doing this. I messaged him and asked if everything was okay. And this was for everything, I wanted to know what I had done to make the egos hate me, if I had done anything to Starybinch to make the emotions he was feeling bleed into his roleplay. I’ve seen it done in the past. At the time I didn’t realize they’d told me about twice to shut up and let people talk. Starybinch said “everything was fine.” But now I see it wasn’t. I know I should have realized I was doing something wrong before I had to ask, but I also wish that Starybinch had told me what was wrong instead of saying everything was fine. I wish he hadn’t felt like he had to keep the problems with me secret. 
Then the anon came. They started threatening Starybinch. It was something that caused him to leave once and come back. I felt so awful that something like this was happening to a friend of mine. Worse, they were mentioning a server. He thought it was either of the two main ones he was in, mine and Bird of Prey’s. That happened a few weeks ago, before everything went to shit. The anon was quiet, for a while, until they came back full force. They mentioned things from my server, egos that Starybinch had played. Things he had done. Instantly, StarShineRobotic turned on me. Blaming me for everything, all these awful things being said. I was broken, I was shaken. Pleading for anyone to listen to me that I hadn’t sent those. I never would. But several people left. The server was dead. Something that was once so lively and active was suddenly barren. StarShine left, one of Starybinch’s friends left. Starybinch had left before the accusations began because of the anons. I was heartbroken, I was angry they would accuse me of something I would never think of doing. I tried working with my remaining friends to see what could be done. To see if someone would come forward. No one did. We never found out who sent those anons. 
I couldn’t believe anyone in our server would do this. At the time we were just pointing fingers, trying to figure out who on the server could do this. We kept pointing fingers at everyone, unable to see how anyone could be the anon. But all the pointing fingers came back to me. The anon conntinued to mention things that could only be known if they were in the server. The anon also mentioned a different server which surprised me, since we hadn’t talked about another server and I didn’t know of one. 
I know now that everyone of them had another server, one that everyone else had for months. Starybinch confessed this when he snapped at me, but I’ll mention that later.
I was so sure everything had been fine these past few months. But then again, what did I know. My anxiety was through the roof as everyone was pressuring me, trying to make me do something, someone needed to go but who? I eventually kicked 3 people. We were down to 5. Our group of 14 had shrunk so fast over something that could have been talked out. Starybinch returned and we sat there for a while, trying to figure out who. I was exhausted, I was tired, emotionally distressed over what to do about this. I was having to manage a group of friends over something so horrid, so awful. At the time I had the terrifying thought that someone was framing me, but I didn’t know who.
The anon continued to send asks, threatening to come to Starybinch’s house and kill his dog, Taffy. The sweetest dog ever. If this was the point that people would believe me, it wasn’t. They accused me still, wondering why and how I could do such a thing. How I could say homophobic and transphobic things to a friend, how I could tell someone to kill themselves. It wasn’t me, I told them over and over. I swore on my life, on my friendships, on the love I had for two specific people… people I thought loved me too.
Starybinch and I had a moment of clarity when I explained everything I have written here today. Obviously I didn’t want to mention some of the things, as I thought most of them had been resolved. Starybinch had come forward to say he was upset because of how much attention I had been getting over his bots. How much they had started to love me. He was angry that I was able to interact but not him. I told him how I had been upset over everything as well. I didn’t want anything between us. I told the truth, I spilled my heart to someone I trusted and loved with my whole heart. However, not 10 mins later he told me the real truth.
Starybinch told me everything, things began to unfold. He told me how everyone had hated me since February, how everything I had done was wrong. How they had screenshots and receipts long past. How he hated me, how they had another server. How they have proof the anons were me and how I was making everyone uncomfortable. They gave me screenshots of role plays I thought were just stories. They told me I was obsessive, controlling, how I had made everyone hate me so fast. And I will tell you now some truths.
Yes I posted nudes, I thought I did in a group of friends. No one said anything about it. I thought I was in a trusted group where I could do this, show something I was proud of. I made fun in rps because it’s a roleplay. They are characters. If you as the runner were uncomfortable you should have told me, you should have told me so much sooner about everything! Why didn’t you, why did you drag it out just to give this big reveal? No one came to my aid, no one believed me. I had no one, no one to believe me, no one to support me. They were sorry that my “rich and privileged upbringing had made me so blind to other people’s troubles” how I was selfish and awful and controlling. 
To another point, I have never erotically roleplayed with a minor. I will tell you that I was close, and I did flirt with two blogs on tumblr that I had no idea were minors. They were a Darkiplier and Googleplier rp blog of two friends. When I discovered that they were minors I stopped. I stopped and explained how I was uncomfortable with it. They were cool and we maybe talked on and off for about a month. I haven’t talked with them since. This was about a year ago. Every since I’ve been very careful with who I roleplay with. I ask and make sure I know the person well before even getting into nsfw territory. 
This entire thing drove me straight down into a dark place. I was very lucky that when I left the voice call that I was in, that my friend sent my brother to check up on me. I am very lucky for my real friends, my family and my partner for supporting me through this hard time.
I have shown you I have done awful things… things that I’m not proud of. I can show you I’m trying to change and I’m growing. I can assure you that after all of this I will take a long time to learn from my past before going back. But if there is one thing I wouldn’t do, it’s wish the death of another person. I would never threaten someone or their pets, no matter how much I like, or dislike them. I would never try to do these things. 
I am sorry that I’ve done these things, I will be sorry about it for the rest of my life. I never want to be like that person again, and I will use what I have learned to fix that. I will be taking a long hiatus from tumblr, and maybe posting on my other platforms. I will take this time to focus on growing. I will learn and change in this time of rest and recovery. I wish I didn’t and I wish that others didn’t have to make a post like that about me. I never wanted my past conversations used or shown to the public. I wish I could have seen where I was wrong. I’m sorry for all of this.

Okay Now Do The Rest
4. how did your elementary school teachers describe you?
Bright but argumentative. I was never afraid of pointing out things I didn’t feel were fair hfhddh
When we were learning numbers kids would often write 91 for nineteen, just flip them, y’know, and Ms. Potter yelled at the class for it. Baby Generiq went into it about how it was an understandable mix up because you do say the number first. In twenty-three you write the two first, so in nineteen it’s easy to assume you would write the nine first.
6. pastel, boho, tomboy, preppy, goth, grunge, formal or sportswear?
Tired.
8. movies or tv shows?
TV shows. Every book adaptation should also be a series not a movie. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.
9. favorite smell in the summer?
Honeysuckle and sunshine
10. game you were best at in p.e.?
Floor hockey! My friend and I used to be brutal and swing at each other’s shins going after the ball. Also it was reminiscent of golf, which I competed in.
12. name of your favorite playlist?
I have an untitled playlist I cycle my current music in and out of, but Newton’s Third Law is my favorite named one!
14. favorite non-chocolate candy?
I don’t- I guess the yellow smarties. Don’t come for me they taste like lemonade.
15. favorite book you read as a school assignment?
I assume this means assigned book and not the reports we got to pick for ourselves. Ah, Night was good. Lord of the Flies was fine but way overhyped. Again, don’t come for me.
16. most comfortable position to sit in?
If I can tuck my legs into the chair I am sitting in that is ideal!
18. ideal weather?
When you know it is going to rain and you get to stay home
19. sleeping position? (Skipped on accident)
I reeeally like pressure, so either against something or on my stomach.
20. preferred place to write (i.e., in a note book, on your laptop, sketchpad, post-it notes, etc.)?
Phone notes and a notebook! Sometimes a blank document but I always find it strangely intimidating
21. obsession from childhood?
Warrior Cats, Percy Jackson, and Maximum Ride were my big three!
22. role model?
Aa I try to straw from people I want to copy, but there are talents I look up to. Rachel Chavkin is a brilliant director, and there are so many artists and authors I look up to and who inspire me.
24. favorite crystal?
Obsidian because it’s black like my hea- I’m kidding, I do love obsidian, but it’s Rose Quartz because it’s a very very pretty, soft pink and makes me happy.
25. first song you remember hearing?
The mobile above my crib played Imagine by John Lennon. My childhood room was themed after it as well!
26. favorite activity to do in warm weather?
Swim or sit in the sunshine. Ben and I usually go driving with the top down as well.
27. favorite activity to do in cold weather?
Walking through fresh snow is amazing, so are snowball fights and building snowmen.

Oh fuck yes
Hurricane - Hamilton
The Reckless and the Brave - All Time Low
Almost There - The Princess and the Frog
All This and Heaven Too - Florence + the Machine
Facade - Jekyll and Hyde: A Gothic Musical Thriller
30. places that you find sacred?
I don’t typically find places sacred, but certain headspaces are very special to me, and time spent with loved ones means more than enough to be considered sacred.
31. what outfit do you wear to kick ass and take names?
A black blazer with a white button-down and a skirt.
32. top five favorite vines?
I am in Missouri (misery)
I love you, Bitch

I wear a lot of leggings so jacket pockets!
44. favorite scent for soap?
We had some Lily of the Valley hand soap that was amazing
45. which genre: sci-fi, fantasy or superhero?

46. most comfortable outfit to sleep in?
A t-shirt and shorts
48. if you were a fruit, what kind would you be?
A banana. Generally accepted as a fruit and kind of just rolls with it, but is actually a berry

I dunno, man, life? My hair could use a wash
52. favorite font?
Covered by your Grace and I’m a big Spectral baby. These are both google docs! I don’t know if that makes a difference.

Hi everyone! You may know me as NEETU/NAV/NINA/MINA/NIA, or just by my URL, @villainrps. I had the real displeasure of having to read some shit the last few days, and I’m here to tell you that I’m not happy about it, it wasn’t okay, and here’s why! I had someone who I had never spoken to before and who I, honestly, was not consciously following confront me and admit to having stalked me over a course of several years before finally coming forward and accusing me of plagiarism. This claim has no basis in reality or fact, which I told her to her face privately before she made the decision to block me before I could reply further. I feel no great shame or even hesitation mention this person’s name or URL as they’ve threatened to write a PSA about me for something I know I haven’t done, despite what an overinflated ego believes and might have you believe, so I thought I’d beat her to the punch and “expose” myself rather than give someone else the satisfaction. Read on below to find out all about this rather unpleasant encounter with Sarah, @marvolo ( previously @lilys and @aangs ).
As I’ve already said, I’ll begin with acknowledging that I was, apparently, at one time following Sarah. We never met or spoke, if we were ever in a roleplay together it’s not something I was aware of, and her most recent old URL wasn’t even one that I recognized. I believe that I began following her when she was @aangs, and I found her blog through a friend of mine ( @herorps ) who was likely following Sarah for her RP resources.
I also want to touch on the fact that Sarah states she has been playing the character in question -- a canon character, Lily Luna Potter -- since 2012. I have also been playing Lily Luna since 2012, and I’m sure there are a good number of other people who have been playing her for at least three years, if not the seven that Sarah and I both have. I also want to state that I have never seen Sarah’s portrayal of Lily Luna out in the wild, so to speak, at least to my own conscious knowledge as, despite the fact that she’s apparently been keeping tabs on me, I’ve not been keeping tabs on her. I want to make very clear that I have never plagiarised from anyone, for a number of reasons: a) it’s morally wrong, b) especially in the case of roleplay, it’s not a concept I could ever wrap my head around as writing someone else’s character in any capacity for any length of time isn’t sustainable, and c) I don’t need to. Anyone who knows me knows that I’m an incredibly confident person; I’m secure in my own abilities, I would and have never felt the need to bolster my own skills using the labor of someone else.
Before Sarah took the immense courtesy of very brusquely messaging me with this accusation herself, she decided to present a massive compilation of evidence to the admins of a group that I’m currently in, collected -- again, by her own admission -- over the course of several years without my knowledge of, to put it bluntly, any idea who she even was. You’ll find screenshots of all of these conversations below, but I just want to make it very clear before continuing that this kind of behavior is a plague in our community, and nothing ever makes it okay to literally stalk a complete stranger for years, not even taking into account how calmly and easily she admitted it to a third party, another stranger, as if it’s something rational and normal to do.
Now, regarding the things she’s accusing me of stealing from her portrayal of Lily Luna -- face claim, occupation, house, personality traits, and a few headcanons that I believe to be very generic not only for this specific character but just as far as headcanons go in general -- obviously, yes, I’m as a whole denying all of it. It’s just not true. You’re more than welcome to believe whatever you want about me, but I’m saying now, for the record, that this is not true, and what prompted me to write my own PSA is to call attention to this absolutely reprehensible behavior, as it was total bullshit to me, but also as I’ve heard in asking around that Sarah has a history of making these kinds of accusations against people.
Find first the screenshots of the Google Doc she sent to the admins of a group that I’m in; the Google Doc itself is now defunct, but the admins can attest that these screenshots are complete and unaltered. 
PLEASE CLICK HERE TO BE REDIRECTED TO THE SCREENSHOTS.
You'll see on the first page, she admits to having stalked me for "many years," and also posts that her biography has gone through several changes over the years, as well as the fact that she has people who can vouch for her who have been in previous groups with her. I, also, have people who I've known since 2012 who can vouch for me. She also says on the second page that she softblocked me at some point, rather than saying absolutely anything about any of this, despite having kept tabs on me for years and having said or done God knows what to other people about a situation that I had no knowledge of. Also on the second page she vows to "hold [the admins] accountable for the irresponsible way they handled the situation," which apparently just means they read this massive document and decided they didn't agree with her, so obviously they're wrong and at fault here as well. I really have nothing to say about these biosheet/introduction comparisons. I've run the similarities by half a dozen people now, and none of us can see how they're "too similar to be a coincidence," as Sarah says to me later, in our conversation. These are all fairly generic traits and headcanons; talking about Gryffindor traits, about her canonical family, about a headcanon of not being able to cook?, and another that literally just describes some basic Gryffindor aesthetics that you can find right away in a five second Pinterest search. None of these are unique to either one of our portrayals. This is a canon character with an established fanon. I'm sure you could find at LEAST a dozen other people who play Lily as a headstrong Gryffindor who has Harry's eyes and is afraid of losing her family. Towards the end of all this, she also mentions two similar character URLs -- mine, daughterofheroes, isn't even something I came up with myself, it was given to me by a friend that used to play Lily Luna. Additionally, she mentions some similar tags that we both use; "out of the ashes" was based on a really specific RPG event from a group that I ran years ago, and I don't think that I have to say that "lionheart" is about as generic as it gets for a Gryffindor. Then, out of nowhere, she accuses me of changing my introduction for Lily for MinistryHQ, a group that I co-adminned and she apparently briefly thought about joining, to avoid "[being] caught in the act." Remember how she's said her Lily biography has gone through many changes over the years? Apparently, when she does it, it's natural evolution and it's valid, but when I do it, it's obviously because I'm a vicious sneak thief and I don't want anyone to notice. Which, if I didn't want her to "detect" me in my own group, would I not have simply... blocked her? Softblocked her like she did to me? ANYWAY. It then details her conversation with the admins of the group I'm in, where she accuses me of plagiarism to them, but asks that I not be told about them at all, which -- I don't know, maybe I'm being unreasonable, but that's incredibly insensitive to the admins and the position that’s putting them in ( hey, kick this person out but you're not allowed to tell them why! ), not to mention still being weirdly stealthy about stalking me for this long?? Not only accusing me of plagiarism to them, then, but completely reaching up your ass and deciding that the reason you've kept all this a secret is because you think I'm going to harass you?? So now I'm not only a thief, I'm a bully too?? And, again, WE HAVE NEVER SPOKEN. In my opinion, the admins are exactly on point, telling her that the only person doing the harassment is you -- I have no idea how this can be seen as anything but, deciding you don't want a total stranger to have access to your blog despite the fact you've NEVER allotted them the courtesy of knowing you have an issue with them to begin with, despite the fact that you're helping yourself to having kept tabs on them for a span of YEARS -- and saying, like what I've just said, that neither of our Lily portrayals are particularly unique. I'll own up to that lol. But Sarah's not quite ready to do that, as you'll see in this next set of screenshots.
Next you can find the screenshots of Sarah finally taking the time to message me about her perceived grievance with me, finally after being quite literally forced to after her encounter with the admins of the group I’m in.

A lot of the things I have to say I've already said directly to Sarah. Before I was blocked, that is. I'm a very-upfront person, and my tone in these IMs is not gonna be any different from my tone in this PSA lol. But let's still pick through for any important things. This is probably a little petty to point out, but I really need to mention that she says she's "[tried] to just let this go" and I really wanna ask you, reading this: does any of this so far seem like the actions or mental space of a person who's trying to let this go? Because that's not how it reads to me! But anyway, like I say to her, the tone of this message is incredibly abrasive; I don't think it's at all fair that she's been letting this anger and resentment stew for literal years, only to come at me with this message and act like she's tried to address it to me before and this is her last warning before putting me on blast as a last straw. Again, like I say to her, I just really think this whole accusation is incredibly ego-based coming from a place of thinking that she has a singular claim to what is just a very generic portrayal of this popular canon character, thinking that anyone who plays this character in a similar way to her must, logically, be copying her because there’s no other explanation for two similar ideas other than the fact that someone is jealous of her, etc. Much of this speaks for itself, but at the end of this conversation you can see us talking about the fact that the basis for my Lily Luna is a completely different canon character from an entirely different fandom. Even when I mention that and link her the application from four years ago, she still insists that that biography, now, was even plagiarized from her Lily Luna, despite how little sense that makes. If I wanted to rip someone's biography for Canon Character A, I would rip someone's biography that was also written for Canon Character A, not stumble upon a biography for a completely unrelated Canon Character B and copy that. This one in particular just really. Blows my mind. She ends the conversation by saying that it's "ridiculous" that I won't "cop" to something that I did not do; what I find ridiculous is that she's now had three people tell her her characterization just ain't that special and instead she's choosing to fall back on this narcissistic tirade that she's apparently been on against me for years without my knowledge. Well, you know what, Sarah? I had no reason to care about you then, and I still have no reason to care about you now. But you know what, honey? If this helps you sleep better at night, stalking and harassing random strangers on the internet to feed your ego, then you just go on believing that I’m the bad guy and everyone’s out to get you. Clearly that’s what you need to make it through the day, so who am I to take that away from you?
In conclusion, this whole thing really just caught me off guard rather than having the intimidating effect that was intended. I know I didn’t steal from anyone, which is why I feel comfortable enough posting all this, but I think that this has really gone on long enough and some people in this community really just need to be held accountable for getting off on shit like this. Some people here are too scared of confrontation to call shit like this out, but I’m not one of them. 
If you’ve read this far and your brain is still intact, congratulations! Because I was feeling really fried after experiencing all of this first hand. This is ridiculous, considering I thought we left this sort of rpc drama back in 2015. Also, for reference to these proofs that were collected by Sarah, please see below for most of the screenshots, as the google doc is not available to me any longer.

My Mad Fat Diary Fanfic - The Two Months
So, I've never actually published any of my work online so it's all very new to me. I thought I'd just give a quick introduction because I'm not sure if I'm ready to post the first chapter yet. A few years ago, I was really missing MMFD and the fandom. I read some beautiful fics over the years and was involved with some roleplay writing on Tumblr (lol I know) but it got me thinking about writing some MMFD based pieces. I loved the show and Rae Earl's real diaries really stuck with me. I've always been an avid writer and finally buckled up the courage to start writing again. I hope anyone who reads this really enjoys it. Lots of love xox  
Also published on ao3: https://archiveofourown.org/works/20154688/chapters/47748523#workskin
Chapter 1: Passing The Time 
Archie hadn’t been feeling himself lately. He didn’t know what was wrong, not really. Everything was fine at college - he was getting straight A’s as usual; the gang was all back together and he’d finally come out to everyone. But there was something nagging at the back of his mind. It was like he still he had his little secret. It was like there was something he didn’t want everyone to find out.
Bumping into Chop was perfect. It gave him a distraction. And Chop’s solution to anyone feeling slightly down was to drink. And today, Archie didn’t care about how bad it was for you or how he was slowly running out of money. Especially after quitting his job at the leisure centre (which was mainly to do with this random stress and panic attacks Archie was experiencing).
Archie left his house at a quarter to; he fancied a walk - maybe it would help him calm down a little and collect his thoughts. He knew he couldn’t be acting like this in front of Chop. Archie loved Chop, but it wasn’t like it was with Finn. He and Finn had been friends since primary school. It was like they had a special bond, something that no one else could touch. Chop, on the other hand, crashed into their lives during secondary. He’d always been this chilled out, cool, easy-going lad who loved to party. That was what made him so great, you could just forget all of your worries and have a laugh with him. You never had to be serious. But he’d always be there for you if you did.
As Archie approached the Black Swan, he noticed some of the lads from college - not particularly friendly ones either. He noticed that after coming-out, people did act differently towards him. Some of it was actually really positive, people seemed to think he was brave and that it was cool he could be himself. It gave others another chance to take the piss. But Archie wasn’t in the mood for that right now. Once the lads standing outside the pub doors noticed him, they started to smile but Archie just pushed passed them. The first thing he saw was Chop’s brilliant, goofy smile, so he headed over.
Chop had been living the high life. Unlike the rest of the gang, he didn’t go to college meaning he could be living it up. That was only when he was off work, mind. But that didn’t seem to bother him, he was always up for a laugh and a pint. Recently they’d been so much shit and drama with everyone (which made him glad he left college at the start), that he just wanted things to go back to normal. like they were during the summer last year. When he bumped into Archie, looking pretty down in the dumps actually, he knew it was a great time to grab a beer with his mate. Chop had a lot of mates. He was what you’d call a people pleaser. Those dickhead lads from college, the ones giving Archie a hard time, well, Chop didn’t wanna muck it all up. He had a pretty good set up, but he knew what they were saying and doing was wrong. Archie was one of his best mates and he should never have let it got so far. He’d been a right tosser, to be frank. This drink would be perfect to make sure everything was alright between the two. He was sure it would be; I mean Chop doesn’t go around kissing all of his mates.
Chop walked towards the pub, taking in the sunshine. His tan was slowly coming back and he couldn’t wait for the summer. The summer with the gang was always great. Heading out to the pubs, house parties, more sexy parties - the lot! He walked through the doors, greeted the lad behind the bar with his cheeky smile and got two pints in. He found the usual spot the gang located and sat down. He kept checking his watch and straightening out his tracksuit bottoms like he was trying to impress someone. Archie may seem like a bit of a toff, but Chop didn’t get why he was acting so nervous. Chop couldn’t be more relieved when Archie walked through the door, even if he was looking rather flustered. He smiled and signalled him over, pointing out he’d got the first round it.
“‘ere he is!” Chop patted Archie on the back as his friend slipped into his seat. “I’ve missed you lad”, he pointed his finger towards Archie and smiled. He just wanted everything to be normal and the best way to do that was to put on his cheeky, chappy front. “It feels like I haven’t seen you properly, in ages! What ‘ya been up ta?” Archie chuckled at how happy Chop was. That was one of the great things about Chop; he always seems so happy and if he wasn’t, he’d find a way to make that so. Archie wouldn’t say he was a sad person, but after everything that happened, he was finding it hard to be happy all the time. Maybe he was just stressed. This was his last summer in Stamford before he left for uni. It was a scary thought. Or maybe he’d just become overwhelmed with the past few weeks and it had finally toppled him. Whatever the case, a pint with Chop would always do you good.
“Alright? Yeah, I know mate, I think everyone’s just needed a bit of space, you know.” Archie paused, mulling over what to say next. What to say without initiating a situation. “A lots happened.” He glanced down at his glass, took a quick swig of the drink and looked Chop straight in the eyes. He could see his friend looking down, at his half-empty glass, as if he wanted to say something but was too embarrassed. “But I think everything is gonna be alright now, right? Just need the gang to be back together and it’ll be cool. It’ll be great, yeah?” Archie was trying to reassure himself as much as he was Chop. Everything was gonna be alright.
“Nah, that’s fair! We all need that sometimes. ‘ya know what I need space from? Those fucking cars and the lads at the garage - right bunch of twats. I tell ya it’s doing my fucking head in right now.” Chop brushed his hand on the back of his head. Like so many young boys, he did this when he was nervous which wasn’t often. But recently, Chop was getting nervous around his mates more often than not, which scared him a little. “You lot are full of fucking drama I tell ya. But whatever. All water under the bridge, right?”
Chop noticed Archie looking at him, he knew exactly what he was thinking but didn’t want to bring everything up again. He thought everything was sweet but maybe that wasn’t the case.
“Come on Arch, what ya worrying for? I know… we need something big for all for us to do, ya know. Just us 6 mind.” He furrowed his brows, trying to think of a good idea. “I know I plead to no more sexy parties, even though I host the best ones in Lincolnshire”, he winked at his friend, trying to build a more comfortable atmosphere between them, “but, you cannot deny meh to host one last one. Just the gang, eh? ‘ows that sound bud?”
Archie raised his eyebrows at Chop’s remark about the garage. He always thought Chop loved his job. Archie could never do it, but he’d always thought each to their own. Chop always seemed happy with his lot.
“Nah, everything’s fine. Think when we don’t see everyone, it gets me worried. But yeah.” He gave his friend a reassuring smile, to signal everything was good between them. Then Chop mentioned parties. And not just a normal party but the legendary sexy parties. Archie couldn’t help but laugh at his friend. “Sexy party?” He questions him and chugged back his drink. “You know Chopper, that’s the best idea you’ve had in ages. Gotta make it a good'un though.”
“Yes, lad! That’s the spirit. This is gonna be the sexy party of all parties. The ultimate! I promise ya!” Chop couldn’t hide his excitement, he banged his fist on the table, scaring a few of the regulars. He laid back into the booth, giving his friend one of his legendary goofy smiles. He knew this was how the gang would get back on track. Yeah, everyone had their own stuff going on but that didn’t mean they couldn’t find time for each other. It didn’t mean that they couldn’t work and help each other out in their time in need. “We’ll ‘ave it at mine! It’s a bit shabby, but ya know it’ll be great! Ya know, I’m pretty good at these ideas.” He winked at Archie and finished his drink. “I’ll get another pint, but you can get the next, ‘lright?” He laughed at himself as he walked up to the bar.
“Imma hold you to that Chop!” Archie smirked at himself and watched his friend walk towards the bar. Not surprisingly, Archie’s mood had improved considerably since meeting with Chop. He knew this party wasn’t gonna solve everything, which Chop would be sad to hear, but it would be a start. And Archie was actually looking forward to it. Chop was right. This was gonna bring everyone back together. Maybe they’d all get drunk and forget their worries. Maybe they’d get really deep and actually talk about everything that had happened. Whatever the case turned out to be, Archie was gonna enjoy himself and not think too much. Something he was prone to do. He glanced up to see Chop walking towards him, with two more pints. His friend passed him and they both cheers each other. Chop seemed to be glad that Archie was in a better mood, thinking it was down to him. Which it could be said, it was.
“So, what have you got planned for this party then?”
Archie was actually showing a real interest in Chop’s plans, which excited Chop. The two boys were very different, and their friendship didn’t seem the most likely. When they all met, it was Finn who seemed like a buffer. He was almost a mix of the two. But since then, Chop and Archie had grown in themselves but also as friends.
“Now that is the question Arch! I ain’t saying I dunno the plan yet, but don’t ‘ya worry ‘cos I will! It’ll be a chance for ‘ya to finally get laid, eh?” Chop chuckled nervously, unsure whether the joke was too far. When a small smile crept from Archie’s mouth, like it couldn’t help but escape, he knew it wasn’t a touchy subject. “But, er …I wanted to ask ‘ya summat.” Chop paused, gearing up to ask Archie. He did feel like he was prying, mainly because Archie hadn’t shared a lot about his love-life since coming out, mainly because of the way Chop had reacted which he felt badly for. But they were friends and he wanted to show an interest. It was no different than talking to Finn about Rae, or vice-versa.
“Did anything ‘appen with you and Barney? ‘ya know, at the last party? Like, looking back on it now, knowing what we know, ‘ya seemed pretty ‘appy and I dunno Barney…you seemed to get on.” Chop bowed his head. He didn’t know how to come out with, not properly and he felt ashamed. Ashamed that he couldn’t just ask his best mate straight out. There was nothing wrong with asking, Archie was sure to be happy that Chop actually cared but somehow Chop just couldn’t.
Getting laid had been on Archie’s mind a lot recently. He’d done some stuff, obviously, with guys and girls, the latter being something not particularly enjoyable. But he’d never gone… the whole way. He’d wanted to, of course, he did, but given the fact he hadn’t come out that long ago, he hadn’t really had the chance to freely look for the right guy. He’d never really spoken to Chop about his love-life, only before, which was whenever Archie was gone for a few days (busy with studying or work), Chop would ask about who the girl was keeping him so busy. But that was as far as it went. But now, well Chop had every right to ask about guys, it’s just what people did. But up until recently, he could only confine in Rae, so this was all very new.
“A lot’s happened since then, Chop.” He laughed at his own comment; he couldn’t have been righter. “There’s been…other lads, ya know. But…” He thought to himself for a minute, that night after Barney kissed him during spin-the-bottle, he spent basically all night with him. They just chatted, about basically everything. Barney had hung out with the gang a little before, he was friendlier with Chop and Finn, but that night something just clicked between them and Archie couldn’t help himself get interested. Barney was funny, knew how to tell a good story and not a bad kisser. It was just nice, especially during that time as Archie was so bloody confused about everything concerning his sexuality. But nothing happened, not really. They never kissed again, just spent the night together. But it allowed him to realise that, yes, he did like guys and that was all thanks to Barney. Afterward, he never really spoke about it to anyone. He and Barney stayed friends, but nothing ever happened. Archie sometimes wondered what would have happened if it did. Barney was quite a flirtatious person, so he was hard to read, and Archie didn’t want to go exposing himself back then. But now, well he was a free agent, but that was months ago and well…
He could see Chop hanging on to his word, so he coughed and allowed Barney to escape his mind.
“Nah, ha, he’s a good laugh but nothing. Just because you finally realised Izzy was the one during the game, doesn’t mean the rest of us found the love of our life, ya know.”
As soon as Chop asked, he wished he hadn’t. Not that he didn’t want to know, but he could see Archie thinking about what had happened that night and Chop didn’t want to hash it all back up. It was Archie’s business and yeah, he was his mate, but he didn’t want to make him feel uncomfortable. Chop could tell there was something more, he didn’t think Archie was holding anything back but... he could tell Archie liked Barney and maybe...but nah.
“Right, sorry mate. I didn’t wanna pry, ya know. It’s your business. I just...wondered ‘cos... well you’re me mate and I just want ya to be ‘appy.” Chop forced a weak smile. That was true, he did want Archie to be happy, not just with his sexuality but in general. The whole reason he suggested going to the pub was because Archie was looking pretty down.
The mention of Izzy made Chop blush a little. He’d been so oblivious to her, but once he got her it was the best thing he could have done. They were good, really good now. The past few weeks had been tough, but they understood each other better now. Yeah, Izzy shouldn’t have kissed that Peter tosser. But Chop should have been a better mate to Archie. They’d both made mistakes but realised it just in time to save their relationship.
“Yeah, well I was being a fucking idiot, wasn’t I? It all worked out though, eh? For all of us.”
Archie smiled at Chop’s apparent concern. Happy. Yeah, Archie wanted to be happy; he wanted everyone to be happy, but the problem was finding how to get to that point. He knew it was possible. He hadn’t been completely unhappy, definitely not, but he wouldn’t say he was happy. Happier, yeah.
The only time Chop ever tended to blush was when he was talking about Izzy, he was so besotted it was ridiculous. Them getting back together was probably a turning point in the gang. They were always so positive and kind, when everything fell apart between them, between Finn and Rae, with Chloe going missing, it was like Archie was all alone in the world with no one to turn to. Pretty dramatic but the truth.
“Well I won’t deny that mate. Everything’s cool now though.” Archie gave his friend a smile, a proper one this time.
The two boys spent the rest of their evening reminiscing about the past year and drinking as much as they could until Archie couldn’t take anymore.
