          Oh, god, these all suck. Peter watched the blank space underneath his most recently discarded idea. There was no deadline to come up with the coolest, most hip-hopping name and submit it to the group chat (although this resembled too closely to homework that Peter would not be surprised if he would end up having to hand in a three-paragraph essay on the source and inspiration for whatever shitastic stage name he came up with.
          The binging notifications from his phone didn’t help matters, making him feel so far behind while everyone else pretty much found their “identity”. And if that was the case, then it was detrimental to his creative flow to pick up the phone he had lying facedown on his stomach.  He thumbed through the chat logs to catch up and maybe draw inspiration.
[Mic] i *dare* you to try to get famous with that name lol
[NazzX] Whaaaat? Philm Noir is an excellent rapper name! I’m a movie in the making, bay-bey!
[Tarsha] Very classy!
[Tarsha: IMG] very
Tumblr media
[Mic] lmfao
[Mic] freal, tho, we need some names. what yall got so far?
[NazzX] I call Bet Chaker!
[Adel P.] fuck you, you knew i wanted a chet baker name!
[NazzX] Shouldmt have been slow, hoe
[NazzX] *shoukdn’t
[NazzX] fuck
[NazzX] Besides, I’m more like Chet Baker than you are
[Mic] let’s not get into this again. 
[Adel P.] Fine.
[Adel P.] since that’s off the table, i’ll go with cassius
[Adel P.] a classier name, anyways.
[NazzX] Spoken like a sore-ass loser.
[Tarsha] Be nice, Nas
[Tarsha] Anyways, since we’re going w historical names, how about Nefertiti?
[Adel P.] perfect name for a queen! :*
[NazzX] Booooy, how the fuck you gonna flirt in the chat?
[NazzX] Horny on main and shit
[NazzX] By the way, where’s Pete?
          The chat stretched on for a bit longer afterwards, but seeing his name on the screen sparked some panic in him, like a child called on the teacher in class. This whole thing felt like he was in school all over again, and he was one of the last kids to hand in his test. He would have asked Naseem to brainstorm with him -- in fact, his finger itched to pick up the phone again and shoot him a message -- but how embarrassing would it be to come to the man for help picking out a name? No, this was something he had to do on his own.
          But that didn’t mean that Peter couldn’t pull out the trusted What Would Naseem Do? 
         So, what would Naseem do, besides ride Peter for still doing that weird, idolatrous thing? Well, he would probably say that, like the music itself, a stage name tells a story of who the artist is. It would present to the crowds who the artist is as a person, where they came from, who influenced them, all that feel-good philosophical jazz.
          But all of that was still getting him nowhere, so he settled on narrowing his focus. Adjectives. Personality. Keep it simple. And remember that it can be changed anytime (Diddy did it like four times).
          Crossing out the entire list of nulled names, Peter wrote:
          What Am I?
          He kept away from anything pertaining to his demigod status; as cool as that would be, he already had two forms of evidence as to why that wouldn’t play out as a stage name. He’ll have to stick to his more human aspects. Which were...
          People say that I’m weird...
         He wrote “Weird” under the headline and tapped his pen on the journal. What else...?
           People say that I have an atrocious mouth...
          Atrocious went next.
          I love fun.
          Fun-loving
          Then the list started coming in easily...
          Pretty
          Feral
         Youthful
          Sassy
          Ocean-loving
          Sugar-toother
          Fashion-forward
          Happy accident
         And Peter lifted his pen, the smile on his face dropping when he realized that it sounded like a cheesy bio to a fucking dating app profile. Still, he couldn’t immediately discard this list as well, not when his eyes kept drifting back up to atrocious. He could work with that, couldn’t he? Tongue in cheek, he circled the word and went to the next clean page and scribbled a list of names that can come from atrocious, until he landed finally on
          “Attrossity.” Still pressing his tongue against his inner cheek, Peter finally let himself pick the phone up again and typed into the group chat.
 [Peter TK] Hey, what do you guys think of Attrossity? As my name?
           At first, no replies immediately poured in, and Peter was ready to set his phone aside once again to tear out the most recent pages and the proof of his endeavors, when his phone binged again. He picked it back up.
[Adel P.] That’s cool. You can always change it later if that doesn’t fit.
          Peter felt his face harden, but he then shrugged. “Attrossity it is!” He turned to another fresh page. Now, a collective name...

Okay I’m gonna poof because my head hurts and I need sleep. I’ll be out for some of tomorrow but I’m usually around on mobile or Discord if anyone wants to chat etc albeit you all know how slow I am at getting back to you. Now I’m on top of replies (I know I owe two drafts already lmfao) I will try my very best to not let them build up again because it stresses me out letting them get much even though I adore writing them. At some point I will update my RPThreadTracker but who knows when I’ll get to that. On the bright side I’m beginning to fill out more of my muse’s individual about pages slowly but steadily. If I ever get the bios done I will be very happy lol!
Anyway have a good night and again well done me for actually doing replies :) Never been prouder. Just so you all know whatever happens by or on Dec 17, I will still be here. No one is getting rid of me lmao Tumblr will have to kill me to get me off here. But if for some reason anything happens to this blog I’ll make sure I get it back... though I may consider a backup blog in case. I doubt anything will happen because I don’t post explicit stuff often but yeah just in case at least you all know I’m not disappearing by any intention.

as per request, under the guide y’all will find a guide on how to twitter rp !! just know that this is Just how i go about things & i’m sure other people do this way more concisely + like ?? better ??? but idk lmfao,, someone requested it, so here you go !!
okay !! i’m not gonna bother with the application process, because it’s the same as any rp. i’mma skip right to the account part. this guide is gonna be more of a “ cool things about twitter rping ” than how to do it, because doing it is really easy. BUT ANYWAYS...
YOUR ACCOUNT ( pt. 1 )
obviously, you’ve gotta go through all the steps involved in making a twitter account, but that’s just comprehensive stuff. the real work comes in when you’re setting up your profile ( and even then, it’s not too hard ). the first thing you do is choose a twitter handle. for me, i usually stick to what i know & i put it in all caps — dont ask why, it’s just a thing. generally, my handles are one of the following: 1800NAME, NAME2ADJECTIVE, POTUSNAME, FLOTUSNAME, or any of the general tumblr urls ( 1800ALLY, ALLY2EXTRA, FLOTUSALLY, etc ). i recommend one of these variations or looking at the other twitters for the other characters’ handles for inspiration.
YOUR ACCOUNT ( pt. 2 )
okay !!!!!!! for me, choosing a display name is the Hardest part.. im fake and i change it five seconds after i choose one,, BUT again, i usually look at the other charas for inspiration, but when in doubt, i always go with my favorite tv/book/movie characters, like BOBBY BRiGGS. or HARLENE QUiNZEL. or smthn like that. if that doesn’t interest you, then memes are a good way to go. at least 4 ppl in the rp i’m currently in have some variation of ‘cash me ousside’ as their display name, so memes are a safe route as well. you can also make it into an inside joke with another character if you’d like, just like in the picture i used for the graphic, as one of my charas is good friends w/ another and is “ dragging ” him in her name. it’s really up to you !!
YOUR ACCOUNT ( pt. 3 )
bios are easy,, usually any tweet from tfln ( texts from last night ) is a safe route to go and that’s what i use before i interact with people. after that, i usually use an indirect or something funny someone in the rp has said.
YOUR ACCOUNT ( pts. 4 & 5 )
this is for your icon + header, but those are both easy. your icon, obviously, should be a picture of your fc, but your header can be anthing from a nice andscape to a headass meme. usually when a chara gets into a relationship or is good friends w/ someone, they set them as their header. it’s a sign of true love to have each other as your headers.
TIPS & TOMFOOLERY
( 1 ) first thing most people do is post a selfie, again captioned with a tweet from tfln. i usually always post 2 pictures just because i like the way it looks, but it’s all up to you how many you post. 
( 2 ) general tweets: literally just tweet whatever your character is thinking or whatever they’re doing in that given moment. for example, when i’m eating, i usually tweet as my chara eating the same thing or something along those lines. let art imitate life XD
( 3 ) when searching for indirects, you search your character’s name -theirhandle ( ally -1800ALLY ), because if you just search the name, it’ll show your tweets, and you don’t want those. once that’s searched, select the cogs in the search bar and select “ people you follow ” and look at that !! indirects !! if your character has a popular nickname, then you might have to search more than just their full name.
( 4 ) THREADS !! a lot of people make twitter threads, which is a collection of tweets that are linked. for example, when you live tweet a movie or a show, you reply to your last tweet + erase your handle. make sure to reply to the latest tweet or it won’t work. i currently have a vine thread, which means i have to link the tweet the vine was posted in, which is also super easy. when you find the vine ( or any tweet you wanna link ), select the drop down arrow and choose ‘ share tweet via ’ and paste that link into your reply for the thread. voila !
( 5 ) dms are Amazing bc ur chara can do literally anything in them. wanna send a funny video to a buddy ? do it !! wanna make a group chat to talk mad shit ( IC ONLY GUYS PLS ), do it !! want ur Rude & Badass chara to be s*ft for a sec ??? do that shit !!
( 6 ) talking ooc is also easy, as you just add ‘ / ’ before anything you say, on the timeline and in the dms so everyone knows it’s you and not your character ( / lms for plots and shit !! ).
( 7 ) blocking vs. muting: when u block people, you can choose to see their tweets on their profile, but they can’t see yours at all. if you decide to unblock them, you’ll have to refollow them. they will also know that you blocked them, as your profile shows it. if you mute someone, however, you’re still following them & they can see your tweets, but you don’t need to see their on the timeline. they also won’t know if they’re muted.
( 8 ) NIGHT MODE IS A GODSEND & U WILL THANK ME AS SOON AS U TURN IT ON !! it’s honestly the most beautiful thing, as it makes the app navy blue instead of white and now ?? when i turn off night mode i feel blinded. it’s just so amazing ( choose the cog on your profile and select “ turn on night mode ” ).
all in all, twitter rping is just like shitposting... but make sure to keep the memes at a moderate level, because people who make their charas a walking meme are Never fun.. it’s ridiculous and So Fucking Annoying so ! i recommend u find a good balance between actually rping and spewing out the memes, ygm ?? anyways, happy twitter rping !!
