but isn't there a risk for number 5 to cross into godmodding?

hi! you're referring to this point i made in my tips for making your replies better:

don't forget the other muse. i think we all struggle with this one the most. we get so caught up describing our own muse and their own thoughts and actions that we forget they're interacting with someone else. try describing the other character's stance or facial expression, the way they cross their arms. maybe their makeup is really beautiful. maybe their hair is nice. maybe they smell really bad. maybe the last time your muses interacted, they had a big fight. don't take up your entire reply talking about your muse only; talk about the other character. give the other writer something to smile about and comment on - "i loved what your muse noticed about mine! i loved their observations! they were so right!" make the other writer feel seen. this is a great way to show them you're reading their replies, loving their writing, and noticing little details about their muse.

i interpret godmodding as moving the other character around without their permission, making choices for the other character, deciding what the other character says or does, forcing relationships between characters, or overall just taking control of the reply entirely.

i don't think it's godmodding to:

1. mention the other character's physical characteristics 2. mention previous interactions your muse has had with them 3. mention their headcanons or details about their muse they've posted about on their blog 4. mention that character's other canon relationships 5. read their character's about page and mention things from that in the reply

i think if you do ^ these things, people are generally supportive and get excited rather than angry. i have a main ship on my blog, so i get super excited when people mention my character's main ship partner in replies. or if someone mentions my character's height, or notices he has a curl out of place... I LOVE WHEN THAT HAPPENS. i love when people add details and notice things about my muse in replies. it makes me want to reply quicker. it makes me more excited!!

if you're ever worried about godmodding, i'd message the other person first. "is it okay if my muse mentions (this)?" "is it okay if i have my muse say (this) about yours?"

when in doubt, communicate. ask if you're worried. but if you're incorporating someone's prominent headcanon, a factual part of their physical characteristics, or a canon event into your reply... i don't see why someone would be upset by that. in my opinion of course!

#fcrgottn #answered #i just hate it when someone replies to me #and they don't mention my character at ALL #they just address him at a distance and don't like. add that vivid detail that makes it more exciting #i don't want a reply filled with your character's inner dialogue #how am i supposed to reply to that? #i want you to talk about my character! #and i wanna talk about your character! #does that make sense?

The way I picture Spinel and Vanellope's relation is basically "chaotic babysitter" Spinel wants to be mature and all but there's something about Vanellope's fun personality that just brings back the fun loving chaotic version of her whenever they hang out

That definitely makes sense! Vanellope's definitely good at encouraging other people's chaotic sides xD

What if we have a thread sometime where Spinel gets to play literal babysitter to Vanellope, while Garnet and the others are out for the night or something? I can just imagine Spinel trying to be all disciplined and make sure Vanellope goes to bed on time and everything because Garnet's counting on her... and Vanellope just continually pressing the boundaries because she knows Spinel's got that chaotic energy in their somewhere and she's determined to bring it out?

I just thought that based on your description it could be a fun context to play out, maybe. But no pressure of course! ^^

Gem Steven was sitting by Classic Steven on the floor with a complete walk through guide of Mini Golf Quest XIV, guiding the little one through the more difficult part of the games secret mini boss course. "Alright, now it says to enter the normal code you got before backwards while holding down the right trigger button for the entire duration of the keypad sequence in this room, once the keypad turns orange you need to run down, right, then right again before going up three times then opening the door second to last on the left."

"Gotcha... I hope the secret mini boss doesn't mind us barging in on whatever they were doing in their secret place, it'd be kinda rude to come in uninvited and out of the blue like that." Classic Steven replied as he was doing what Gem Steven had instructed on doing.

"Yeaa... never know what you're gonna fine when you just barge in uninvited haha... don't forget to save your game after you get to the door you need to get to, it'd suck to have to do all this again later."

@fcrgottn continued from here:

Spinel can’t help but jump in shock at the sudden sight, a string of swears escaping her. She was taking a walk on the beach because it was calm and serene, not to randomly come across people just tearing into reality! To be fair, Spinel wasn’t that unfamiliar with people appearing through portals, with the existence of Lion. Didn’t make this any less weird though. “Who are y-” Her question is cut short when she notices the flower on the stranger’s face, and the vines around their legs. Spinel froze, memories of the garden in her mind, the phantom feeling of the vines digging through her legs when she was waiting there back to haunt her.

☄️ Finn strolled on over to the stranger, hoping to get some context about this new world he was in from the first person he’d run into. “Hey! I-”

He stopped, raising an eyebrow at her sudden change in demeanor. A noticeable hint of concern crossed his expression. “Are you okay?” 🦋

how can I find a line between accessible and pretty for my blog?

great question ♡ i'll provide my opinion and my ideas, but i hope many people with far more experience than i do will also leave comments down below to further assist you!

pretty doesn't have to mean complicated. pretty might mean your blog has an appealing color scheme, a cohesive aesthetic, crisp icons... an overall pleasant blog to look at. it doesn't NEED super extensive graphics or icons though — a blog can be beautiful without knowing a lot about photoshop.

accessible means legible text, enough contrast between colors so text isn't blending in with the background, no messletters (that 𝔀𝓮𝓲𝓻𝓭, 𝖋𝖆𝖓𝖈𝖞, 𝗂𝒎𝖕ᴏ𝗌𝖘𝚒𝕓𝐈𝑒 TO ᖇᕮᗩᗪ ᴛᴇxᴛ ɪɴ ʏᴏᴜʀ яєρƖιєѕ tᖾᥲt ⳽ᥴɾᥱᥱᥒɾᥱᥲᑯᥱɾ⳽ ᴄᴀɴ·ᴛ 🆁🅴🅰🅳 ), no complicated random changes in color with no actual purpose in mind. it might be fun to add this sort of text to like... a header, or the heading of a rules page, or add this SPARINGLY to a reply... but when they take up a majority of replies and make things incomprehensible, that's when you know the stylization of your text has taken precedence over the actual quality of your writing.

i made a lil example blog for you to show how nice a blog can look without any complicated graphics.

here's a test blog i just made for a character from transformers. no header image. just a nice icon with a psd over it (and you can find so many free psds on tumblr and deviantart, so long as you provide credit on your blog) and a simple description with ONE legible piece of fancy text. i made sure the blog colors are a sharp contrast - #fe9a69 is my lil orange-y color i took from the icon i made, and then #242424 is my background (i also took this color from my icon). i made my text white, so there's a significant amount of contrast that makes things easy to see.

in MY opinion and in MY experience in the rpc, simple and clean blogs look the prettiest. and simple and clean can mean ACCESSIBLE, too.

ask your friends. "can you read this?" "does this look all right?" "how can i make this easier for you to read?" let other people provide insight, as well, and make adjustments as you see fit.

pretty CAN mean accessible. you can make things super simple and clean and ensure everyone around you can read your blog and replies, understand your aesthetic / theme, and love your blog as much as you do!

i think the most important thing to keep in mind is that you should always listen to those who need help with accessibility. if they tell you the text is too tiny, the colors you chose make it hard for them to see the text... you should listen and make whatever adjustments you can. of course at the end of the day, it's your blog, you can do what you want... but our community should strive to make sure everyone feels welcome and comfortable in this space.

#fcrgottn #answered #rp advice #rp help #i hope others will offer their advice! #AND correct me on anything i got wrong! #i am no expert in accessibility #so i hope others will contribute their ideas and tips!! #thanks for the question!

The Duchess knew the woods well. The dark was no trouble for her and she pursued her quarry long after the sun disappeared below the horizon.

However, the chill had begun to dampen her spirits. It was a force which tugged at her overcoat and parched her throat so that every breath stung. She pulled her hat further over her brow, as she scouted for her hound. It was her mother’s cap and she hoped that some luck of her hunting success would rub off.

The Council depended on her. As Alabonsé, the study of beasts was her domain. Anything not her kind was considered such, and it was her duty to ensure the anomalies from other worlds did not become public knowledge. 

This time, something pink roamed the outskirts of the Jarcounce estate. Something that left very little evidence, in hair or scraps of clothing. But Beetle was still a good hound, with good ears. Several paces off the path, the dog growled in front of a bush, digging with both paws. Got you. Evergreen’s eyes flashed luminescent in the low light.

As Winter stepped through the new door, it brought them to another memory. Instead of being on the ground like one would expect, Winter was floating with a side view of the temple.

Gem Steven and Amethyst was horsing around by the edge of temple's cliff. Human Steven's voice could be heard loud as if he were right next to them despite the fact that Winter was several feet away floating at the mountain's height.

"Guys, be careful!" Human Steven replied. "What's got you worked up, little man?" Amethyst asked, "Awww, do you care about me or something??" She said squishing her face and doing a silly voice.

"Yea, I do care about you both." "Aww Steven, I didn't mean to make you--- woaahhhhhh." She replied stretching backwards to dramatically emphasize her movements about fake falling.

Human Steven yelped, "Amethyst! Please stop, you're gonna fall!" He got closer to her. Gem Steven turned to see that Amethyst was just joking around and couldn't help but chuckled at Amethyst being a dork even though Pearl's told him plenty of times not to encourage her when she gets like this, watching her do flips getting marginally closer to the edge.

Human Steven was worried little tears foaming at the corner of his eyes, "Amethyst, please stop, you're gonna get hurt." Gem Steven seeing how it was upsetting his brother and went over to agree, "Yea, Amethyst, I think we've pushed our luck enough for today." "Geez, Stevens, you guys don't need to stress out so much. I'm a gem warrior.... I'm not gonna fall--" Amethyst on the very edge of the cliff had fallen off. The Stevens yell, "Amethyst!!" Gem Steven jumps after her, Human Steven yells, "Steven!!" Then makes his way down the temple's mountain the safer way by carefully speed walking down the grassy path, while Gem Steven falls faster so he can catch up, and knocks Amethyst out of the way, Amethyst rolls and kicks up the sand and dirt as she lands, while Gem Steven wipes his brow relieved but tries to stop himself from falling so fast but slams into the rock at the bottom of the cliff. There is a bright flash of pink light and Gem Steven groans in pain as he slides down the side of the rock.

Human Steven huffs and puffs rushing to Amethyst, "Amethyst... Amethyst... are you ok??" Amethyst gets up and checks the gem in the palm of her hand, "Yea yea, I'm fine... see no big deal." She brushed herself like she wasn't just tackled by a small child midair.

Human Steven went over to Gem Steven, "Bro? Are you ok?" He asked with a frown. Gem Steven used the rock as support. "I'm alright... just " He coughed a bit, "Think I swallowed a bug on the way down."

Pearl and Garnet came around the corner, "See, I told you they'd be here... Amethyst, do I have to remind you again you shouldn't be messing around up on the mountain like that?" "P-girl, don't worry about it, it's all good... No harm done as uuush." Amethyst folded her arms behind her back. "Steven, are you ok??" Pearl asked holding Human Steven close making sure there's no cuts or bruises. "Yea, just out of breath from running down the mountain..." "Steven, are you ok?" She turned to Gem Steven "Yea, I'm good." He replied, a split second before his body glitched out, jolting pain through out his body and his pink poofy locks were replaced with the giant mane of pink coiled curls.

The four of them let out a gasp. "What... what did a gem monster like land on my head and is too adorable to punch or something?" Gem Steven asked. "Steven, let me see your gem." Gem Steven seemed confused and lifted his shirt. Pearl's eyes widened, "Amethyst! Of all the irresponsible things, I can not believe you would be so reckless around the boys!" "Hey, I didn't ask Steven to jump down after me and push me out of the way!" "Amethyst, do you not see that Steven is cracked!" "... I mean I knew something was wrong with me but you don't need to call me out on it." Gem Steven replied. "hey... what does that mean? Is Steven gonna die???" Human Steven was whimpering. "No, he's not going to die, but it is going to get worse if we don't do something about it now." Garnet replied. "But Steven's cracked I highly doubt his healing powers are going to be working properly right now." "Maybe I could try?" Human Steven suggested. "That's a sweet thought Steven, but you're a human, you haven't exactly demonstrated any other powers other than your shield... and you can barely hold that for more than a few seconds... and that's even if you don't get winded... not to mention you are still trying to catch your breath, please don't push yourself so hard, you're so fragile."

"So do I just have to live with this crack now?" Gem Steven asked. "No... we're going to have to head to Rose's fountain." "Ah yes, Rose's fountain." "Mom had a fountain?" The two Steven's tilted their head confused.

"Oh yes, she did, it was like a lush garden filled with the most beautiful rose bushes, with a gorgeous fountain that had multiple statues in your mother's visage that we used during the war since your mother couldn't just continually cry on everyone that was injured... it has been years since we've been there.... I wonder how it's faired since then."

The memory shifted like it was windows in movie maker transitioning to the next screen. The fountain was overgrown covered in thorned vines, Pearl let out so noises of disappointment at how this safe refugee for the gems had faired the march of time without Rose around to tend to the garden. "Oh dear, how are we going to deal with all this overgrown flora?"

Gem Steven huffed trying to hold his hair out of his eyes, "Ugh, my arm's getting tired... how did mom deal with having all this heavy hair all the time??" He asked, before he saw one of the vines starting to menacingly get closer to Human Steven, "Steven, watch out!" He replied, jumping in between him and the vine, but then Amethyst turning to the noise pulled both Stevens away from the plants. The fast movement caused Gem Steven's crack to get deeper, he yelped in pain. Pearl and Garnet looked over hearing his yelp in pain as his body glitched into Rose but his hair now his usual pink poofy hair. He took a sharp breath before letting out a soft,

"at least that hairs better." He huffed out in his mother's voice and clamped his mouth shut. "Amethyst! You're making his crack worse." Pearl told her off. "Well, excuse me for keeping the Stevens' safe from the plants that were trying to hurt Steven." Amethyst crossed her arms. Pearl was going to reply before Garnet then punched the rock through the layers of overgrowth. "Ah, Garnet!" Pearl exclaimed in surprise, holding the sides of her hair. "There, now we can go find what's causing the problem. Amethyst stay with the Stevens, Pearl come with me." "Yes, of course. This is completely fine. Let us go solve the problem." Pearl looked like she was about to be sick from the damage to Rose's plants.

Human Steven and Amethyst were sitting with the cracked Gem Steven who was sitting on the side of the fountain, "I wonder if I could try shapeshifting back to normal?" "Steven, don't... if you try to use your powers your gonna make it worse and Pearl's never gonna let me hear the end of it if you end up being some sort of weird glitchy dog." "Alright... any other ideas?" "Well, I can try and heal you." "I mean you're gonna have to do that if Pearl and Garnet can't get the fountain fixed."

"Alright... so mom had healing tears... so I guess you'd have to cry on me... but I don't wanna see you cry... seeing you any kind of upset makes me feel bad." Gem Steven replied. "Yea, but I wanna help you and if I have to make myself cry I will." ".. but don't push yourself ok? I don't wanna have to explain why you pooped yourself." Amethyst chuckled. "I'm not gonna poop myself, Amethyst." He replied crossing his arms with a blush on his face, embarrassed and insulted at the very idea of it.
