Hi! So I was wondering if you're allowing people into the Gregaverse Discord server right now, and what exactly the requirements are to get in. If you don't want to add someone new right now, that's fine. I just think it seems like such a fun thing to be a part of, and I'm dying to share my version of Gregory with..other Gregory's, I guess lol.

Thanks~

Well, the discord is technically open for entries, but you will have to dm me or @saltynsassy31 (mainly me since I'm more active and usually pay more attention to dms) and we will ask you some questions, and then get the approval of the other mods if you can join or not! It's more closed off and @moonfang182-magic explains it here very well the system

Otherwise, you can still be part of the Gregaverse! Through tumblr, just shoot me a dm (and i have to reiterate, please dm me) tell me your main au that you want your name to be associated with, and i will add you to the list! You can also reblog the list post with your Greg's signature on it and say what au you wanna add to the list, and you are in! Simple as that, but it is really just recommended to just dm me since well, i sometimes miss reblogs

sketches of my fan jondami kid, Gray Thomas 'Van-El' Wayne-Kent ft. his cousins, Kyand'r and Diand'r Grayson at the end (Dick+Kory kids).

Gray has such a mouthful of a name bc I couldn't pick between giving him a standard human name or kryptonian name, so he gets all of the above. Gray is a reference to his uncle's name, Dick Grayson, and Thomas is in honor of his late grandfather on Damian's side. Van-El is a reference to the original Nightwing, Van-Zee, and is Gray's hero name. Gray was created in the same manner Connor was concepted--as a clone using DNA from both Damian Wayne and Jonathan Kent. He lives as the two's surrogate son, having the powers and talent of both parents.

Could you explain your position on Shallura? Since Allura was established as a teenager when she started dating Lance and Shiro was very clearly an adult. I can understand the bi shiro headcannon but the shallura thing worries me

i am going to remind yall that i have been in this fandom since 2016. and in the early seasons, allura was not established as a teenager. in fact she was coded as older, as closer to shiro's age -- there was a specific divide between her and the younger paladins that she did not have with shiro. they made her younger (both explicitly and in mannerisms) as the show went on. and i do not give a fuck about voltron like...post s4 and i didn't even watch s7-8. so like. especially with older fics, im going to enjoy shallura.

#also this is less relevant and i was going to put it in the main post but i cant find the words for it #but i found your last sentence kind of condescending. “the shallura thing worries me” as if i am your little project and things arent going #to plan. as if you are the Knower Of All Things and i am straying from my path lol. twas odd #and this is a controversial thing to say i know it but like #we take fandom way too seriously. if someone decides in fic to make two characters the same age to ship them or whatever. do we really need #to get the torches and pitchforks. like i can understand discomfort when people ship like shiro and pidge or something but. also. i feel #like you can just block and move on?? like i dont ship sheith bc they are brothers. to me. but also i dont think sheithers should be #harassed or any dumb shit like that. i think its so so whatever like theyre Lines man theyre moving lines #at the same time i understand that peoples headcanons can be reflective of their worldviews (like when racism/transphobia/sexism shine #through someone's headcanons/characterization) but how much scrutiny is too much? when do we get to remember that fandom is a place to #work with the FICTIONAL? where you can change details without consequence? i saw a fic where keith was the older sibling and shiro was the #younger once. it was a good fic. how come we can play with ages but only when the Fandom Council approves? #i guess this is a really long and clumsy way to say like. you do not own the fandom nor do you get to dictate my work. and while there #is always room for necessary criticism please also think critically before you post your criticism #anyways #rant #ask

[lovesaghost]

Kinda insane how a lot of what makes people ship buddie is just implied, like, Eddie implies that Buck hangs out with Christophor a bunch without him. It's implied that they may or may not have (literally) slept together during quarantine. Buck implies that he's at Eddie's house more often than a guest should be. It's implied that Eddie isn't exactly a fan of any of Bucks girlfriends, or his parents for that matter.

for day six, i decided to go with a more, like, "we may not be very compatible as people/classmates, but we do share that familiar experience of figuring out who we are" kind of theme with my personal headcanon(s) for these two. like an uplifting "you're not alone in this" type of vibe?? yknow what i mean? lmao happy pride month! ✌🏼

Judging by some of the posts I've been seeing lately, I honestly have no clue how some of y'all could possibly handle the fact that Jason isn't the only member of the Batfam that has intentionally committed murder.

Guys, he doesn't even have the highest body count.

But, yeah. Sure. Jason's the "morally gray one."

my doctor was sooooo fucking worthless and unhelpful im going to masturbate and i hope it fucking kills me

#“no need for follow up” #“yeah you did have several cysts we scrapped off your remaining ovary but. dw about it. idk why they were there. dw about it. oh also your #ovary on that side was freakishly huge but. dw about it. it might go away. dw about it #*doctor shrug emoji* “ #“go see a gyno next year maybe. but not me im too important for that. go find and onboard a gyno to your situation. next year maybe idk lol” #he barely even looked at my incision like #this fucking appointment could have been an email. or a phone call. or they just could have let me start driving again. also i forgot to ask #if i can stop drinking ensure now or after the 6 weeks? cause that shit cost $$$$. but he probably would have been super unhelpful if i had #fr fr this guy only wanted to give me the time of day when he thought i might have fun cancer inside and now he's like gtfo!!!! get your #fugly cancerless ass out of here!!!! recover from a major surgery on your own you swagless cancerless loser 🤣 we arent helping your #swagless ass!!! #anyway it seems weird and fucked up that im was never offered to see a physical therapist and i guess am going to have to blindly trust my #abs they sliced thru are healing or whatever and to rawdog my own physical recovery of my muscles? even just dumb shit like. my center of #gravity has drastically changed since the mass removal and my back hurts like shit all the time because all my posture muscles were built up #for when i had an extra 30 pounds of cyst hanging in the front and my posture and walking reflected that. and i lowkey don't know how #hard i am able to be with my healing incision because its really tight and makes me hunch forwards still. like i would really like to know #how much i can safely or maybe should be forcing my skin and incision to stretch. without damage? is that crazy #am i crazy??? #this shit is why i didnt see a doctor for 2 years until my problems had snowballed into a 30 pounds ovarian cyst that was crushing my other #organs and had one of my kidneys all backed up with piss. and even getting emergency treatment for it everyone was like. how did you like it #get this bad?? how could you not know you needed to seek medical treatment???? like. bro. seeking medical treatment isnt even a guarantee to #get medical treatment. #anyway he said my “remaining ovary seemed low key polycystic but dw about it. don't quote me on that im not dealing with it.” #bro i dont want to doctor google it i wanted an actual doctor to deal with it. fuck you. #like. maybe even a doctor who knows my situation so i dont have to struggle with getting someone to believe me and take me seriously. #but whatever. back to trying to figure out the daily protein and extra calories my body needs for recovery via doctor google i guess. #its fine 🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬

[toasts-httyd-hyperfixation]

Made a generator that randomly assigns you an AU that was made either by myself or by one of my friends

HEADS UP: The Spelling Matters, an AU with an abbreviated name is not the same as one without, e.g— we have 3 Avatar the Last Airbender AUs If you get ATLA AU that is not the same thing as the Avatar the Last Airbender AU I dont currently have a masterlist of all AUs with descriptions, so while i may make one eventually, until then if youre curious about the specifics of an AU, just let me know somewhere in the notes, comments/tags/reblog, wherever and ill summarize it directly

And then if youd like you can either go

Here and get assigned either Hiccup, Fishlegs, Cami, Toothless, or Alvin, because they're the characters who probably have a set role in the AUs already

Or here which i made a while back, and has a whole bunch of different characters, who may or may not have a role in whatever AU you got assigned

#httyd books #httyd #how to train your dragon books #how to train your dragon #im going to make a full list of all My AUs *eventually* but theres so many to go through #and also like i said #not all of these are mine #So depending on who the au belongs to they might not want too much about it being announced #on a similar note if you get an AU thats been talked about on tumblr im gonna link to that #Also several of these are just for goofs so like #Dont take em too seriously lol

That person's attempt to smear the roleplayer's rules is astonishing, sheesh. I wanted to thank you for dispelling it, and say I agree with your reply! Because I had similar rules once upon a time.

Basically, I did collaborative writing for over 15 years. In the end, I had a rules page that was fairly no-nonsense too. Mainly because over that time, I met hundreds of people with various quirks. Some partners were very incompatible with me, and I quickly learned the reasons why, but others stuck around and we hit it off really well, and I learned the reasons for that, too. Over time, those bits and pieces of knowledge made it into my rules. Specifically... I block people if they expose me to dumb drama. I don't do public url shaming because of the dirty laundry aspect. And I don't do purity culture bullshit. I avoid people with DNI lists in general, because those lists are usually just performative bullshit. And I only write with people who tend to be descriptive, because I love description and hate one-liners; it doesn't feed my imagination or fulfill me as a writer or reader. It's also pretty soul-sucking if I write 3,000 words and someone gives me a single line that isn't even 10 words back, haha. I also tried to write with multiple partners who'd only ever written one-liners and tiny paras, and they expected me to teach them how to write novellas on the fly. I was like, how on earth would I have the time or energy for that?! Am I getting paid?! I just want to write, without also feeling like I had to keep tabs on someone else's writing, too. It wasn't long before that became a rule - I couldn't teach people how to write longform stuff. I just didn't have the capacity. And that's just how these rules are born. It's not malicious, it just happens with experience and knowing your own limits, and being responsible enough to articulate them for others.

Anyways, informing a possible roleplay partner about these things is not a fucking "friendship contract" like OP implied. It's a courtesy. A heads-up along the lines of, "we're doing collaborative writing, and investing a lot of time into this. The least we can do is ensure things go smoothly, and ensure we're on the same page about our preferences, our overall sensibilities, and what we want to achieve with our characters and our writing." Because some of these collabs last years. OP wants to talk about something being a contract? I've seen rules that were super nasty, demanding, and micromanaging to the point of making you wonder how the person even functioned. The OOP doesn't come close to that. I've even seen a rules page that was 15,000 words, and it took me a whole damn evening to read through it. But even that wasn't a contract, or nasty. The person had memory issues due to a disability, and most of the page was explaining their complex tagging system, and telling people what to expect when they were writing together. Could they have chopped it in half? Maybe. But it, like OOP, isn't worthy of ridicule.

My own rules page never became overbearing, but it did become more informative for possible partners, and that was helpful for everyone in the end. It saved us so much time, and it helped me find so many amazing partners - people who had very similar mindsets to my own! Knowing that, the person in the screen cap is definitely not alone; I could pull up ten names who have the same kind of rules page right now, and who made it that way for precisely the same reasons I did. And I'm sure I could find ten more within minutes, because any roleplayer who's been around for long enough will have boundaries like the above ones, or more. Of course, sometimes even other roleplayers (usually ones who are very green to the scene) will balk at these rules, but it's essentially because they're uninformed (like OP and the other commenters in that post), and they haven't experienced what the more seasoned roleplayers have. They act like it's overkill but as time goes on, most of them will ultimately adopt the same stuff, lol. I've seen it happen.

As for the other stuff, yeah, it's all just basic blog and follower maintenance. Most roleplayers dislike having mutuals they don't actively interact and roleplay with, because it's inefficient, and they especially don't like following someone who isn't even following them back, because most of the time, it means they won't be able to write with that person.

Of course, I don't roleplay any more because of all the anti bullshit, but yeah. People like OP submitter can meet me in the damn pit, I'm old and I have zero fucks to give when it comes to defending sensible communication in the RPC. Which is all OOP is doing. There should be more of that.

Anyways, cheers. And sorry for the long-ass ask.

Legend! All of this tbh. 🙌 Also didn't fail to notice that most of the rules you mentioned were just common sense courtesy, "be a good human being" things that nobody should actually have a problem with reading in the first place.

#no tolerance for drama? and no clique infighting? and writing with peeps whose writing has similar depth to mine? sign me tf up fam lol. #i can't believe people actually mcfuckin expected you to teach them how to write longer stuff though wtf? why didn't they just google that? #also i think a lot of the reason new rpers freak out about longer rules is bc they think rp is some 'silly stupid hobby' #that nobody takes seriously or wants to use to improve their writing? i saw that mentality so much when i was still rping. :/ #but lots of people actually like writing novel-like stuff? heck there was a whole subreddit for it. so it can't be that rare? #tumblr rp #roleplaying #social media #bullying #psa #because this is too good not to share ngl. i hope you dont mind me tagging it as that lmk if not!
