Tagged by @ikathemadhatter ​, thank you!! This seems fun so why not^^ I will state 9 things about me, 6 are true and 3 are lies... which are the lies? 

1. I visited the OR 3 times over the course of just one pregnancy and its aftermath.

2. I went to a bilingual French-German high school.

3. I had a pet spider when I was 16 years old.

4. I got stuck for an extra week on a business trip on the other side of the planet when the Iceland volcano erupted and all air traffic in Europe was stopped back in 2010.

5. The first time I cut my hair short I was 15 and I just wanted to look like Samantha Carter from Stargate SG1. 

6. I’m pretty much addicted to coffee. 

7. I was a little daredevil as a kid. One time I broke my arm after climbing a tree and falling, and as soon as I got out of the cast I promptly broke it again during sports class. 

8. I have a driving license yet I never drive because I am terrified of absolutely everyone else on the road.

9. I got Lasik surgery when I was 23 and said goodbye to wearing glasses all the time.

//Hello :) I adore Nagato! You should definitely go for it!! And no problem~ I’m honored that you asked. I haven’t been super active rping myself (on here bc I’ve been rather distracted rping as Noct from FFXV <3 and doing a bunch offline too).

In all honesty, rping isn’t all that difficult. The main thing to keep in mind is that, whether you plan to stay IC or diverge as some prefer, always have faith in your writing. I learned so much from rping with other people and I’ve gained so many friends over the years. But the most important thing is you’re here to have fun.

Now to the basics ;) When I started my blog, I was lost as all hell, but managed with some help. I started off as a question/answer blog and then added threads in. Posting something in Nagato’s tag introducing yourself as a new rper is a good way to let other people know you exist. You can also create open starters that anyone can jump in on and go from there. Those types of threads are great bc they’re small and you get the hang of writing with others real quick. When it comes to themes and all that, don’t stress. A simple looking blog is just as cool as the intricate ones. I clearly didn’t go all out on mine XD Oh and don’t be afraid to ask others to rp! The worst they can say is no. Besides there’s so many others that’d say yes~ Also if someone asks you to rp with them, it’s okay to decline. Never feel bad about it. Sometimes people want to write something you’re not comfortable with or maybe you just don’t want to (and that’s fine).

Also really important! Read the rules and guidelines of anyone you’d wish to write with/interact with. It’s respectful to the other person that you took the time to go through their blog to make sure all is well. Some people are particular with who they write with or what they write (as in plot or ships). It’s also a good idea to have your own rules in mind and create a page for it.

Another thing, if someone doesn’t reply after a certain amount of time, don’t be afraid to ask them about the thread. Sometimes Tumblr’s notifications don’t work as advertised. Or maybe they forgot.

Respect the other rper’s character. Be aware of who they write. Bc I can’t tell you how many times I’ve come across people who disregard Sasuke’s power level and or try to underestimate him or get offended by his occasional attitude problem. It can get frustrating when other’s disregard facts. Just bringing it to their attention is an easy fix though.

I don’t know how much you know when it comes to terms so here’s a few: Mun - The person behind the blog (you :D) Muse - The character you’re portraying Thread - The back and forth interaction between two individuals writing together God-modding - When you take over another person’s character without consent and control what they do (it happens more than you realize and no one is ever happy about it) Headcanon - Elements and interpretations of a fictional universe accepted by an individual fan, but not found within or supported by the official canon (they’re just fun to have ;) Starter - The first part of the thread (basically the opener). They can be small or in paragraph form Drabble - Essentially a mini story or ramble of writing. I often get drabble requests that others are interested in seeing my write. Could be certain scenarios or interactions with other characters Memes - They can include sentence starters or even questions for you to answer. You can limit how many you respond to by indicating whether you’re accepting more or not. Reblogging them invites other rpers to send you something or an opportunity to interact.

And if you get sent hate, don’t let that derail you. I’ve had plenty sent to me and although it can get upsetting or annoying, it’s best to ignore. Sometimes people can be rude for no reason. Stick to the positives. Immerse yourself in what you love. Not everyone has the same opinion. Some just like to be more vocal about it. Never be afraid to rp how you interpret the character or what you want to write. Rping isn’t a chore. If you can’t find your muse, there’s no problem taking a break when it’s required. Life takes precedence. 

So, that’s as much as I can gather at the moment! Hope this is helpful to you!!
