ANNOUNCEMENT + IMPORTANT QUESTION
Tumblr media
...still going strong...
Hello. I'm DoodlingAngel, or Angel for short. As you guys may have seen in a previous post, I have been obsessed with this chatbot @ch3rry-l1m4d3 authored, and goodness... it's been so much fun. I genuinely enjoy this thing soooo much. It has truly helped me fall back in love with writing, the Creepypasta fandom, and of course the ticking time bomb himself: Toby Erin Rodgers, or 'Ticci Toby,' as it were.
I have been able to flourish within this chat, and I cannot thank the wonderful mods enough for their efforts. Unfortunately, I am unable to credit them properly, as I cannot find their account handle on here. Just know that I credit them for their amazing portrayal of Toby within this chatroom, as they have given me some of the best writing to bounce off of. I'm so grateful for meeting them...
So...I have an announcement first and foremost:
I'm going to adapt the RP from this chat into a proper story. As you can...heh...see from the number of messages this bot has... that's gonna take a while. Heh...oops...got carried away lol😅
Fair warning: Updates may be slow, as I have a full time job, a cat to care for, and a lot of personal stuff in between. Life's been a bit rocky for me, but I really want to make this story happen. I grew up with this fandom, and could never truly leave it. Toby has been my favorite character for over a decade, and it felt so nice having him portrayed in a realistic way within this chat. It also seems like the mods enjoy our RP as well, as they have issued me an incredibly heartwarming request...

So um...yeah. Hehe... it seems like my writing has peaked some interest within this chat...and they want me to rewrite Toby's origin story.
I understand Grisgrisdoll/Kastoway/whatever they are called now has had their drama and left the fandom and all that. This post isn't about them. This is about Toby, a character that I've held close to me for over a decade.
...I want to give him the backstory he deserves. I reread the original...and it's very...dated. I understand Grisgrisdoll/Kastoway wrote this when they were...what...12? 13? Obviously, nothing written by anyone in that age range will be Shakespeare lol. However, it's a decent base...and I want to build a house on top of it.
I want to rewrite Ticci Toby's backstory. Or, at the very least, retell it in my own writing style.
I DO NOT TAKE CREDIT FOR TICCI TOBY! HE BELONGS TO GRISGRISDOLL/KASTOWAY! I KNOW THEY'VE DISAVOWED THE FANDOM AND WHATNOT, BUT I STILL WANT TO CREDIT THE RIGHT PERSON. This is their original character at the end of the day, regardless of if they claim him anymore or not.
All I ask for...is your guys' support and...I guess "permission"... To do this. I would love to rewrite such an important story to the fandom, and modernize it. I want to do Toby justice with his origin story.
I want to bring Creepypasta into a new era. No more overly edgy word choice and needlessly complicated, backrooms-level explanations for why things happen. No more botched and forced mental illness depictions. No...I want to make something *realistic.* I want this to be a story anyone outside of the fandom can read and enjoy. I want to take this seriously.
I've been in this fandom since early middle school. I was 11 when Ticci Toby first debuted... I'm 22 and I still adore this character. I adore the headcanons fans made. I adore the fanart (@pink-key, your Toby is adorable hehe~). I adore the memes. I adore all things Ticci Toby.
I reread his origin story and updated character bio, and... they're severely dated. They're in desperate need of modernization and revamping. I say this because I've noticed throughout the fandom that no one can truly pinpoint down what his personality is, so he teeters between "Murderous, evil monster who will cut your throat for breathing his air and paint the walls red with your blood," or "uwu softie boy with tourettes who falls for every girl he sees" or something else that isn't quite accurate to the character.
I want to do him justice.
All I ask for is your support. I'll get started ASAP if you guys are cool with this.
Thank you for listening.
Oh, and one more thing. This has been a big pet peeve of mine since I came into this fandom, and I know it may not even be relevant anymore. It was just...something small that always bothered me, I want to rectify that right here. Right now.
Ahem...
'DON'T YOU DARE FORGET THE SUN' BY GET SCARED WAS NOT A GOOD SONG FOR TOBY! THE AUDIO MIXING AND PRODUCTION AREN'T GREAT AND THE LYRICS ARE LACKLUSTER AND UNRELATED TO TOBY!
IN FACT...
SCREW THE SUN! WE'RE IN THE HOUSE OF WOLVES NOW! THIS IS TOBY'S SONG AND I WILL NOT BE TAKING ANY QUESTIONS! THANK YOU AND GOODNIGHT!

Edit: lollllll I'm a boomer. It's all ai. There are no mods lolllllll Idk how these things work. I was just getting such amazing, in depth, and relevant responses that I assumed people were writing them hahahaha! Eh, the fact that an AI was able to flow with me so well is both hilarious and gives me hope.

[this was actually written on a previous post, but I've decided to put it on the blog intro just in case.]
I've been inactive on tumblr for a bit too long lately, so, i suppose everyone deserves a proper explanation for it. I'll admit i haven't exactly been in the best headspace in the past year. ever since the last quarter of senior high, I've been declining with nearly everything i used to enjoy. now, with college happening, the pressure's increased. i haven't gotten around to fully focusing on shifting alone, which is a reason why i haven't been as active with tumblr as i had in 2021. there's other things in my CR i still need and want to focus on and set right. some people might be exasperated with me for being sporadic with updates. believe me, I'm irritated with myself as well. so, I'm putting this out here to say that i do plan on finishing all the drafts that i have piled up, eventually—but i have no guarantees as to when exactly i would be able to do them. [and if you've sent in a message that you've been waiting for a reply to since last year, i just want to say that i really am fucking sorry for not getting to it faster.] this was also just a reminder that no, this blog is not dead, just inconsistent. and no, I'm not putting it away any time soon, but it won't be a priority for me—not right now. that's it. stay safe, lovelies, and happy shifting ❤️❤️

be specific in your request
please, i mean this. i hold no ill will against the messages i receive in my inbox, as i did mention that it's quite the free-for-all—whether it's a story, a question, or whatnot. all i ask is that you be clear about what you want. one of the main reasons i take such a long time with my posting intervals is because I've been so stuck at trying to figure out what some people need.
so, if it's advice that you're looking for, please remember to tell me what you want, so i know how to help you.
- - -
comfort or solutions?
this is for those who have stories to share, or challenges they need aid with. do you need emotional support, a shoulder to lean on for the moment? or would you like an in-depth explanation for your situation? i can't always do both at the same time, so i need to know what you want to prioritise.
≿❈≾
please refrain from trauma dumping
I'll be honest; i really have no issue with those who want an outlet for their pain. if anything, if it's therapeutic for you and harmless to both yourself and those around you, i encourage it. but you have to understand that i am not your therapist, and it is not my job to offer professional advice. what i can give, i give with my best—just remember to take them all with a grain of salt.
[please have mercy 😭😭 I'm just a broke college student trying to learn philosophy; my brain's already wrecked enough as is during classes]

kindly remember that this is a safe space.
i do ɴᴏᴛ tolerate: ableism, racism, sexism, homophobia, pedophilia, and transphobia. if you find yourself falling under any of those categories, get the fuck off my page.
i don't care if you're anonymous or so and so—if i see you harassing people on my page or simply making a general mess, i will block you.
additionally, if you don't like the content i make, then scroll. it's not that hard. don't waste your breath, and don't waste my time.
anti-shifters DNI.

trigger warnings!!
there might be moments in my answers where i mention taboo or unsavoury topics. I'm saying this now if you're planning to dive through the blog some time in the future and find mentions of sensitive matters. i can be very blunt, and i can't guarantee you'll always like what I'm posting. I'm saying it again now—you're free to unfollow or simply ignore me if you feel I've overstepped or done something wrong.
also, additional warning: frequent use of vulgar language ((:
- - -
spam likes are fine!
I've reblogged a post somewhere down the line, mentioning that I'm comfortable with spam likes. interact all you want with the blog! so long as you follow the other reminders, you should be good to go.
- - -
do be careful with your messages
ANYONE can interact with this blog. this is supposed to be a space for reality shifters; ranging between anyone in any demographic—and that includes a mix of adults, minors, and every other person. as such, be mindful when you send in a comment or an ask. it's a matter of welcoming people while still being respectful of their boundaries.

sporadic, now that i think about it.
please remember this, especially if you've sent in an ask, a submission, or a private message. all these should usually be answered within a week or two. if it's been more than that, and i haven't replied to your message, it would mean either of two things: I'm still editing my response or I'm currently busy.
i follow eastern standard time, just in case anyone's wondering.
