#will reblog this slowly on my other blogs so I don't clog the dash all at once

[dcviline]

Some important things I want to reiterate for my blogs. Some of these things are already in my rules but keep getting ignored repetitively and by different people so I'm going to clarify, and some of these are new additions. I'm sorry if any of this comes across as too harsh in wording, I am just very very tired & stressed irl due to the time of year so I'm gonna be more careful about curating my tumblr experience for the time being. Please read.

First of all, I can usually tell when you have not read my rules or the info I have on my muse(s). I'm not a hardass and I won't get fussy if you forget something, I don't expect everyone to memorize everything about my rules or portrayals, that's just an insane expectation to have in general so don't worry I am not gonna ask that of anyone lmao. We're all just human beings and a lot of us here have funky little brains so trust me I'm very chill about it. And it's okay if you skim, they are just there for reference if you ever need them. I also understand especially with my multis, I don't have info listed for every muse because I am moving things around a lot and still working on new pages, so it's okay to make mistakes. What I mean is, sometimes it's very easy to tell when someone followed without looking at anything at all. The only thing I ask for is an attempt to respect the guidelines and boundaries I have set for myself and the barest attempt to at least try to understand the muse you're intending to interact with instead of picking them purely for the face you saw or the blog aesthetic or whatever.

On that same note, don't try to interact with my muses just because of their faceclaims. Just . . . don't do this please. I'm honestly shocked about how many times this has happened to me in the past year alone. I do not like the concept of face hunts or wanted opposites based solely on a faceclaim and not the character itself; it makes me very uncomfortable.

All of my blogs are mutuals only. If we are not mutuals, I will not be interacting with you on a roleplay basis. I will not be writing starters or answering ic thread starters in my inbox for non mutuals. This is how I curate my space. It's not personal, but please respect this boundary I have set. I have it on my pinned post that I am private and mutually exclusive, so there is no excuse to ignore this.

I am not fast about following back 70% of the time. I'm cautious about who I follow for the sake of curating my dash space. If you do not have an accessible place with your rules listed at the very least, then I will wait to follow until you do and I have read them. Outside of getting notified about a new follow, I check my new followers once or twice every 2-3 weeks, so yes, it can take a while in some cases, especially if I missed the original notification or if you didn't have your rules / info added at the time. Do not repeatedly follow / unfollow to get my attention. All this does is make me not want to follow at all. Please be patient with me, and if you can't afford me patience in even the littlest things, then this is not the blog for you.

I do have long-term writing partners that get prioritized. These are usually friends I have been writing with for years, so there is a great deal of trust and understanding already built. Of course this does mean that typically my inspiration will gravitate towards these mutually-built plots and dynamics, especially when my energy is low. I'm just a human being, not a writing machine. Having friends and having fun writing with them is not "cliquey", so if you hold this view, this is not the blog for you. (Yes, that has been an issue before.) I always welcome new writing partners! If we are mutuals, I want to write with you. Just understand that I do have a severe anxiety disorder, so I'm always shy when first meeting & getting to know someone new. Again, I am interested, just shy & anxious! So feel free to throw yourself and your muses at me first and I promise I will be elated.

Most of the muses I write are women or fem-aligned. I do notice when people only try to interact with my men & masc muses and completely ignore all of my women. Please don't be one of these people.

A new addition because of a trend I'm noticing more and more lately: please do not make the majority of your thread and ask replies to me in all caps. A little bit for decoration is fine, but if it's the majority of the reply, the odds are I cannot read it. I am dyslexic and have adhd, and it's extremely hard (if not impossible in some cases) for my brain to get through a piece of writing if it's a giant block of all caps.

I won't follow you if you use templates / psds / etc. from resource creators and do not credit the people who made them. It takes minimum effort to simply acknowledge the people who went out of their way to make these things, and pretending that someone else's work (no matter how heavily you edited it) is your own is theft and overall icky behavior.

If we are mutuals, you are 100% welcome to come throw your muses at mine at any time! You can send ic asks (and continue them) or throw random starters at me whenever the inspiration hits you, the only requirements are don't godmod or forceship. (If you are unsure about anything, come talk to me!) I promise I do not bite <3
