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.

That one confuses me. Why would you play half of canon ship and then say no to the other half.

i can understand this, some canon ships are just really poorly written. i once played one half of a canon ship and when someone apped the other half in they were thrilled to find out that i didn't ship it because they hated it too. we agreed that we didn't want to play it out and let our characters do their own thing in game and we both eventually ended up with crosscanon ships instead.

because they want all the gentlemanly monsterfuck without the underage/weird power dynamics, probably

because they're rping to explore different scenarios instead of regurgitating canon? because they don't like how the ship is written? because you can think a character would be really cool to play without including the elements from canon that you don't like? there are plenty of reasons and i think it's pretty rude to try to drag a player for clearly stating their preferences to this other player who's just coming here to try to find something they want to rp.

yeah they can do what they want and it's understandable why they'd find the character an interesting concept but not like the elements of the ship

chise player shouldn't be passive aggressive about it with anons either

this player hasn't been PA whatsoever

There are a ton of reasons why someone might want to. The canon ship could be badly written and they take some personal issue with that, they might want to explore other crosscanon options, they might play one half of the ship at an early point in canon where they get together with the other half, etc.

Just because a ship is canon and you play one half of it doesn't mean you're entitled to it.
