Find your missing MxRP partner

I noticed a lot of folks don’t use Discord to keep up with MxRP trouble and usually come here for answers. Instead of shouting into the void, I made this blog so they can always come here to shoot an ask to find who they were roleplaying with! Any roleplayers from any site are also welcome to see if they can re-match with their partner through this blog as well! The only exceptions are sites like Cherp where it’s blatantly against the rules to break anonymity. Feel free to send asks with your rp information to try and find your partner(s)! The blog will always use the tag “roleplayrematch” for easy access, so you don’t have to worry about this blog getting lost. We have a Discord in case you’d prefer to find people there yourself slightly less publicly: https://discord.gg/fwAC3sUpbE

roleplay tumblr is so weird. one person i had one going with just suddenly deactivated all accounts, then one potential partner blocked me because i didn't respond immediately. then another said they were no longer interested because they've had "shitty rp partners lately" as if i'm the same shitty rp partner.

i miss shamchat more than anything, nobody for my fandoms uses omegle and my discord server is dead.

are there still legitimate roleplayers out there? is writing dead? am i gonna have to go back to fics? writing all by myself?

with that being said im looking for rp partners, hmu

Just tonight I rediscovered a Shamchat chat log (if you remember shamchat we should kiss) between me, an 11 year old going through intense depression and having a truly horrible night, and a person who said she was in community college at the time and had a high schooler sibling (so was probably in her twenties). And man. Man…. I havent cried that hard in a hot minute. I saved the chat log bc it was truly such a pivotal online interaction for me at the time (and she told me to, so that i could look back on it when i needed to). She was so so kind to me and i wish so badly i could talk to her again. And tell her i made it and that she was right about everything. Man… i miss you sis.

#in a perfect world me and her would be reunited one day and she would be my big sister for real like i asked her to be #oh yeah minorly fucked up detail she is the same age as my (now deceased) older brother #shamchat #missed connections #og

I loved the toxic yuri experiences i had on those rp alternatives to omegle like shamchat or whatever that one was called when I was younger

#shamchat was great i got to go to a tf2 event near me when i was like 13 and we ended up just going on there after the game was done and #it lasted like 7 hours it was awesome

[gunpowder-tim]

ngl rlly funny to me that omegle is gone but only bc i was waaay too scared of omegle to ever use it

#rai.txt #bitch got anxiety #tbh though anyone remeber shamchat i think it was called? i used to go on there.

Denmark and England for blorbo bingo

Denmark!!

Imm Soo normal about him I think about him 24/7 I've made it no secret that he's been my favorite since I got here but ohhhhh I think he's so interesting . I know Hetalia is a comedy but I wish we got to go more in depth about him in canon (same for all the Nordics actually) I think he has a lot of potential to be a really complex character. But also he is so stupid. I want to kiss him on the mouth I want to hit him with hammers. Etc.

England

Suprising! England is not a character I get asked about often! He used to be one of my favorite characters and I used to have so many thoughts about him, but I don't remember that well. These days though I don't have a whole ton of thoughts on him as a character outside of his relationships to other characters (though admittedly. I do have a lot of thoughts about that). I make fun of him because he sucks but I guess he still has a place in my heart, but specifically the image I've built up in my head, I don't know about fanon/canon.

#i used to roleplay England on shamchat #but k dont really engage much with him anymore #england fandom scares me #emil.txt #blorbo bingo

Things To Do Instead of Eating

- Paint your nails;; Take the time to try out intricate designs! Watch tutorials! Have fun with it!

- Learn a dance routine;; I especially like trying kpop dance tutorials I find on YouTube, or routines to my favorite songs! They’re a lot of fun (and count as an exercise 💕)

- Write or roleplay;; I like coming up with creative characters and going on Shamchat- most of the time the roleplays are short, but if you find one you really enjoy you might even continue it outside of Shamchat!

- Go on a walk;; Good for exercise, and it also give you some alone time to think or listen to music! If you have a pet, take them along with you for company if you’d like!

- Watch a movie or start a new show;; Watching stuff can be a great and easy way to take your mind off of things for a while, just make sure to keep a water bottle close and be drinking lots of water while you’re watching!

- Spend time with friends;; Hang out or even just text! Talking to someone always takes my mind off of things, and can make time go by much faster!!

....More to come!

WHERE ARE THE HETALIA ROLEPLAYERS HIDING. shamchat's been gone for years, omegle is dead, where IS everyone. come back im bored

[floralcrematorium]

I don't know if youve answered this before, but what made you come back? I'm not that old in the fandom, maybe half a year and it's so interesting how that fandom changed and how it used to be.

Thanks for the ask! I'm gonna be real with you, it was an accident. This is about to be a loooooooong ass post so I'm putting it beneath the cut:

It happened steadily in July. A very slippery slope.

I left in or around 2018 just because I lost interest. A friend in 7th grade introduced me to it in early 2014. I had been running my Instagram account since Summer of 2014 with my best friend (who at the time had been my partner, and by 2018 we had broken up) and our other friend. We'd all moved on and the account became dead. It wasn't a good account, but we'd amassed 1.1k followers during our tenure. Those were the days of if you wanted to post a comic, there were no Instagram slides. You had to post it all individually. The account was deleted in 2021? I think? 2020?

So come July 2023, I was poking around in my old Google Drive and found some of my old Hetalia stuff. Which included a fic with the aforementioned friends. It uh. Is not good. I reread it and oh boy is it a product of its time (we were probably 13-15 when we wrote it) and it was a 3 way POV that we all wrote with self insert characters. It was basically Heta characters get thrown in the setting of Outlast but with the plot of FNAF. Yeah. So uh. Not much to defend there. I jokingly went to my friends like "Hey, what if we rewrote this but not horrible" and we genuinely thought about it! For a night.

But for me it wasn't one night.

I kept thinking about it.

And one thing led to the next, I was revisiting old Youtube videos I liked and reread a fic I used to like.

I think what really did me in was listening to the character songs again and a couple of hetaloid covers. I was doing artfight and listening only to Hetalia music while I drew.

I genuinely did not really use my normal Tumblr before floralcrematorium came to be. I have an entirely separate account for personal stuff and art (I will not be sharing it) and it got to a point where I was seeking so much Hetalia stuff that I figured, why the fuck not, and eventually made an account. I also eventually made my first A03 account (I was on Wattpad and FFN back in the day) because someone wrote a CanUkr fic where Mattie had overexerted himself and was in the hospital and Katya and Alfred were going to kill him because he kept insisting he could work (I CANNOT FIND THIS FIC AGAIN, I FOUND IT ON TUMBLR ORIGINALLY, PLEASE HELP IF THIS RINGS A BELL!!).

And uh, so here I am!

I draw Hetalia stuff on occasion (I should... draw more considering that's what I went to college for but whatever) and have a couple of ideas for illustration series in my head.

I've got a lot of fic ideas I want to write. I have a literal list on my phone. I think about it in bed, at work, and little things remind me of Hetalia all the time.

I've gotten back into RP (I used to use Shamchat and Kik).

I've met so many cool people and I've been having a wonderful time being back so far. When I was originally in the fandom, I consumed a lot of content, but as far as mutuals went it was just me and my two friends. Meeting so many new people has been absolutely wonderful.

Hetalia is really the only fandom I've been in. I've liked other media and consumed fics/enjoyed art/bought prints (COUGH RWBY), but Hetalia is the only media I've ever had fan accounts for. It's the only media I've so deeply entrenched myself in that I feel comfortable writing fics. My walls used to be covered in Hetalia -- both official wall scrolls and shitty art I'd made myself (I have pictures I can attach at the end of the post). I had... so much merch. When I was 14 I only asked for Hetalia related things for my birthday. Every now and again I get that "am I doing the right thing?" ick because of the negative fandom reputation and reactions I'd get from people when I would admit to having liked Hetalia in the past, but I don't care about that now. Genuinely, fuck that. I like this piece of media whether I want to or not. I'm not going to be a self-hating Hetalia fan like I was in 2018-2021/22. I've come back to the show with completely different... motives? Idk what the right phrase is here -- I'm here to explore the characters of these little freaks (looking at you, Francis), I love all of the fanart I see, I like the exchange of historical and cultural information/resources.

Sure, I'd consider my fandom niche to be humanverse Francis and FACE fam, but I genuinely enjoy exploring outside of my corner of the fandom. I try to spread myself out -- I want to consume everything. I want to be exposed to everything.

Hetalia is one of the single most impactful pieces of media in my life. Without it, I wouldn't have my best friend, who broke up with me for APH Austria in 2015. The friends I ran the Instagram account with and I are all still in contact. I talk to one much more frequently than the other, but they are both so near and dear to my heart and I can't believe that this silly show is what got us to where we are. The youngest of us is about to graduate college a whole year early. I met her when she was 11 and I was 12 or 13? I couldn't be more proud of her, of the three of us, and it's been so fun to have these occasional nights where we (okay, just me) get tipsy and go through old fandom media/watch the dub and go ooooof. I was in a really bad place when I was originally into Hetalia. Coming back now feels like coming full circle.

The old fandom had plenty of its own issues, and the fandom now certainly isn't devoid of issues, but now that the fanbase has shifted to an older audience and I actually have like. Social skills. I love talking to other people. I like creating. I like thinking about these stupid characters before I go to bed.

My single favorite thing about the Hetalia fandom now is the care put into historical work as well as the exploration of portrayals of the characters. Because Hetalia lacks a plot and Hima is constantly retconning things, everyone has their own interpretations of everything. Everyone has their own version of Francis Bonnefoy, Yao Wang, or Alfred F. Jones. And that's so cool!!! You don't see that anywhere else.

I know I'm typically a pessimist on main, but I'm genuinely glad to be back. It's weird to be back. I've had mixed reactions from irl friends that I'm back.

But who the fuck cares?

I'm having fun, I'm making friends, and I can't believe there are still people here.

I genuinely hope I'm here for a while. I have so much I want to write. I want to draw all of the things my skill level was too low for back when I was a teen.

CRINGE IS DEAD AND I AM FREE.

The following images are certainly about to destroy any cool perception anyone has of me, if they even do. I was... certainly a teenager, is all I have to say! I am,,, thankfully not like this anymore. I hope.

Here are those pictures of my bedroom circa 2015 I promised:

DO NOT ASK ME ABOUT THE LIVE LAUGH LOVE.

That drawing of Russia with Neko-Talia Russia? Yeah. Uh. I did that for an art project in the 7th grade for class. I also did a ceramics piece with the mochis, that I've since lost. These images scream "I'm 14 and like Hetalia in 2015."

I used to have little hearts with all the ships I liked in them (I think that's AusHun in the picture on the left?). I also had "I love you" written in like 20 languages on index cards taped above my headboard.

Also a literal timestamp I found in my old emails with the friend who got me into Hetalia:

Being a young teenager in the old fandom certainly,,,, was something. I would not relive that, but by god would I do ANYTHING to get my favorite pieces of fan media back from that time. There was a video called "Hetalia What Did You Do To Panda" which was a bunch of clips from the anime with Katie Herzig's "Hey Na Na" playing in the background. Every now and then a dub audio clip would interject with the song.

I also really miss this one very specific Character Theme Songs video that had Poland in the thumbnail. Mein Gott would play between each song and I could tell you most of the songs that had been assigned to each character.

I would do ANYTHING to get those videos back. I miss them so much.

Anyway, if you read this whole thing, thanks for reading??? I am very Cool And Normal about the things I like, unfortunately. It's nice to come back to Hetalia and like... be a normal person about it.

All I've got to say is, when I like something, I like it a lot.
