Stick a fork in it

Rundown: [community profile] 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.


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. "People may notice site slowdown/cache error pages. We're working on fixing. You can help: finish posts at 3k comments, not 5k or more." - Dreamwidth@Twitter

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 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.
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.


Concerns?


Navigate:

Hey! Do not post anything outside of these threads. It will be deleted.
Go be cute and fun and fun and funny over here.

I think it can be understandable to a degree why people overdo her classiness? You need to remember that Kanaya was pretty much raised by Doc Scratch, who is all about being the classiest he can possibly be, for a good portion of her life. A lot of her deviations from the typical troll likely come from that upbringing. But she is still a teenage girl, which people forget a lot. Even the most mature people have their moments.

tbh this is a problem with most players and it isn't normally their fault because of how the comic presents the characters. everything is text based and without descriptions of how the character sounds, so its up to the reader to think of how a character is really acting in a certain situation.

Doc Scratch did have a strong influence on Kanaya when she was a child, but he sort of dropped off the face of the planet and never spoke to her again when she was very young. She actually mentions thinking that Doc Scratch and her memories of him were simply an imaginary friend from childhood due to how abruptly he disappeared and how vague her memories of him were.

I don't doubt that some of the classiness (particularly her big vocabulary and very proper speech) was influenced by him when she was in her very young developmental stages, but he did not raise her by any means.

Handmaid was pretty much raised by Doc Scratch. Kanaya had a few young-wriggler visits from the distant 'uncle,' long enough ago that she's no longer sure if it was real, and was raised by her lusus. I attribute more of her deviations from troll norm to being diurnal rather than nocturnal.
