rpanons | When the cat masturbates its chin

Rundown:

rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
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.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

You might be out of luck, but it also depends on how flexible you're willing to be with them. Is there an earlier canon point where they weren't as obsessed with her? Is there a point in time you can take him from where his romantic interests aren't all about her? Are you willing to, if you bring him into a game, work around the fact that you may not get a canon love interest and therefore might have to deal with "YOU'RE SO OOC BECAUSE X LOVES Y AND OMG" from ignorant assholes who can't understand needing to bend icness to fit in to certain places if you happen to maybe play out him moving on or understanding that game =/= home and have him embrace that?

Like, it'd be great if you could get your canon ship mate, but games are one of the places that crosscanon pairings are usually ok. And if you play a char where it's obscure enough that the idea of you getting a castmate or your char's partner coming in is so low, I don't really think anyone could fault you for moving past that, particularly in a smut/shipping game. There's kind of a lot more leeway for things like that in smut games, but even then, you'll find some random person that'll have a bug up their butt if you don't play out x exactly as their canon portrays. I was brought up on WG not too long ago for not playing out my canon pairing in a smut game, even though both myself and the player of the love interest had no love for the ship and had agreed not to bother playing it. Outside parties are always going to be your weirdest judges, but, if you feel like having something like that pointed out is something you can deal with and not get upset by it, then by all means, app them in. The idea that someone's going to shit on you for shipping your character in a shipping game with their not partner when their partner's not in game is something I can totally understand, but I also don't think you should worry about it. Smut games are generally more tolerable, both in terms of shipping and orientation.
