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.

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.

i... didn't say she was bullshitting me or imply that anywhere. seems you're the one leaping to conclusions.

the question is just if you'd be fine with being second choice once the prime interest is gone.

Sorry for being snippy. I read the part about "you assume she only wants to play with her friend" as assuming that her being too busy was not the same thing as her only caring about her established rp partner, like she was giving excuses rather than being honest. Either way though, I'd still play with her, and I wouldn't think of it as sloppy seconds or anything like that. I mean, what's the alternative scenario here for Karen? That she drops her existing psls to make time for some rando who plays the same character? She resigns herself to never playing with that character again once her first rp partner moves on because anyone else would be sloppy seconds? There's no reason in this situation to withhold playing the ship with her unless I'm legit not interested in it anymore, which would be fair enough.

If I understand your comments correctly, Karen and her rp partner had started their PSL before you contacted her.

If so, you weren't 'second choice', you just happened to reach out to her later. If you and the rp partner had contacted Karen at the exact same time and then you had been rejected, maybe then you could think of yourself as 'second best'.

Who knows, perhaps Karen ends up liking your interpretation of the character more.
