Rundown: rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics.

Temporary Change: To reduce the strain on Dreamwidth's servers new entries will go up when a post reaches 3,000. Please refrain from spamming so we can stretch these entries for a little longer. We don't need several threads soliciting photo evidence of body parts, and we already know that we only care about yaoi. Failure to comply will only result in deletions and butthurt.

Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

RP WITH ME

OUAT

[(Anonymous)]

I want to try out playing Mulan against Aurora or Ruby against Belle.

I should probably specify that I'm primarily interested in shipping them but I'll gladly do platonic stuff too.

If anybody has any other OUAT ships or characters they want to see being played out I may be able to help out with that as well? I don't mind trying out a few other muses from this show.

chronicles of narnia, tokusatsu and other canons!

[practicality]

Hello! I've got a Susan here whom I'd really like to see interact with any of her siblings. I've also a Golden Age Susan account if anyone wants to play shenanigans during that time period, too. I'm game for all sorts of plots for her, really, though I do have a special spot for anything a bit angsty/emotional :D

My character list is up at my musebox, and anyone there is actually ping-able. Plottings can be done here in rpanons or here in this post!

FFXII

[wouldhavenoother]

I know this might be a bit of a long shot, as there's not many FFXII players out there now a days, but my Rasler muse is really strong as of late. I really want to play him without the commitment and the requirements of a game. I'd like to have cast mates for musebox shenanigans, or just playing around on memes and stuff, and I'd love it even more if there was an Ashe for cute shippy things.

Re: FFXII

[(Anonymous)]

Note to anons: this Rasler is terribad.

Re: FFXII

[wouldhavenoother]

Take it to my HMD...kthx Srsly it's the first fucking thing on my fucking journal. If I'm so terrible you could idk leave some concrit, instead of being so passive aggressive.

Here's a handy flowchart, just for you! Maybe if you used it you wouldn't look like such a wanker.

Re: FFXII

[(Anonymous)]

tbh you're kind of coming bad as well with your response. i get your annoyed by the other anon but linking that and being so mad over one comment isn't actually screaming at me 'i'm the bigger person' :/

Re: FFXII

[wouldhavenoother]

I didn't realize I came off as so mad, but I'm upset and annoyed with other unrelated shit and that comment pushed me over the edge.

Re: FFXII

[(Anonymous)]

so you decide to lash out at one little comment instead of acting reasonably and walking away from it. seeing that, you know, the internet is a thing you can choose to selectively ignore/focus as you please.

....

ok. sure. :|

Re: FFXII

[(Anonymous)]

A) There is a time and place for this. This ain't it.

B) You're telling someone to act reasonable and walk away. Shouldn't you just do that, smart one?

Re: FFXII

[(Anonymous)]

DA, but you do realize that anon probably commented here because not many people are going to go to your HMD before threading with you. I assume they basically wanted to warn people in a public place where it could be seen.

But! Since you want some constructive concrit, I'll go ahead and give you some right here. I played with you in a game before and the above anon was right: you weren't very good. Museboxes and memes are best for you because you were incredibly insular. I don't think I ever saw a thread between Rasler and anyone else apart from Ashe outside of your own posts. Which I get because you ship it hard.

Rasler only has a few minutes of screen time in the game, but he has a much broader characterization in the official manga which you don't seem to draw upon at all. Compared to his presentation in both the game and the manga, your portrayal of Rasler is incredibly bland. You don't play him as a character with passion who cares about his home, his people, or anything or anyone who isn't a princess of Dalmasca. In fact, your shipping preferences leak into your characterization because all he cares about is Ashe. And yes, while she is his wife, Rasler cares about more than just her.

I think if you want to improve, you need to take off your shipping goggles. I love FFXII and play from it, but after my experience with you in a game, I'd never want to musebox with you. Thankfully, you don't have to be very IC in museboxes or even memes. Personally, I like playing with people who can keep IC in museboxes/memes while still being interesting.

So in all honesty, the above anon wasn't all that far off. I'd probably warn people who were considering playing with you. Sure, not everyone's the same, but most RPers I know wouldn't want to play with a cardboard cutout with less personality than an NPC programmed to say two lines.

[(Anonymous)]

I personally don't care why original anon commented here. This isn't the place for that kind of thing. Most people are perfectly capable of forming their own judgment about what they've gotten into within a couple of tags. This isn't the kind of danger worthy of a PSA.

If the person was a horrible creeper or had done some nasty, skeevy things to people OOC, something like this might be justified depending upon how bad it was. For something as petty as you don't like their version of the character it comes across as grudgewank.

I've met some good play partners through RP with me. I'd hate for people to start shying away from it because of petty bullshit like this, so how about we don't?

Re: FFXII

[wouldhavenoother]

Thank you for the crit, but I haven't played with an Ashe or close canonmates since everyone moved over here from livejournal, so over a year possibly much more since I was not in any games at the time. I was/am quite aware of the issue and have been working on it since I left that particular game. So thank you.

oh

Re: FFXII

[wouldhavenoother]

Yeah...and your point is? Am I not allowed to ask for advice on things now?

Psychonauts

[(Anonymous)]

I'm looking for a Sasha to play an OC against for slash/romance.

DIGIMON

[dorkingaround]

So, I've got a Kenta here ho would love some Digimon Tamers castmates for a PSL or whatever. I would love to play against a Takato or a Jenrya, and a Hirokazu would be cool as well.

Kenta's not my only Digimon muse, though! I also have a Hiroshi (one of the Dark Seed kids if you don't remember him.) for Adventure 02, I also have a Tommy/Tomoki for Frontier as well. I might also be up for trying an Our War Game or 02 era Koushiro but I'm still kinda struggling with him.

For those other characters, pitch muses you could offer and we can talk about it!

red vs blue

[(Anonymous)]

looking to musebox/psl agent york from red vs blue. doesn't have to be a castmate; i'm interested in character- and/or relationship-focused storylines.

Re: red vs blue

[(Anonymous)]

i've got an alpha!church or a maine/meta i'd be willing to throw your way, if interested?

Re: red vs blue

[(Anonymous)]

would prefer alpha, but either works. do you have a preference?

Re: red vs blue

[(Anonymous)]

i also prefer alpha, actually! i'm much more comfortable with him. so if that's who you want to go with, i'm cool. :)

Re: red vs blue

[sockpocalypse]

works for me! you can pm this account.

Inception

[(Anonymous)]

I've never had the chance to try out Arthur, but I'd love to give him a shot with an Eames, preferably in a PSL. Shipping would be great, but I love serious plot and longer-term development as well, and am up for just about anything!

TWILIGHT

[imprintee]

Okay, so.

I made this little comment a couple months back, and only just decided to actually give it a try. PSL or musebox stuff would probably be better, since I'm still waffling on whether or not to try posting her on memes. I'm completely open to both canonmates and non-canonmates -- basically anyone who wouldn't mind playing opposite a Nessie who's vastly different from the way she's typically portrayed to be.

I... think that's that. I've never been too good at these ad things, so, yeah. PM or comment if you have any questions, or if you'd like to work something out!

[warming]

If you're at all comfortable with it, I play Jacob and I'd be all over a line like this. I've also been considering picking up a different character from Twilight, either Bella or Sam, if you're more interested in one of them.
