A few to go through here. I've just started putting effort into RPing again after a bunch of stuff made it too hard to do much more than the occasional casual meme thread for a few years and it's going pretty well.
I'm not game-ready quite yet, but despite most of my characters being either on the obscure or low-demand side, I've gotten a lot more bites on both meme toplevels and tag-outs than I expected. I kept hearing about how obscures have such a hard time on memes, but I guess I picked some pretty adaptable ones and/or really lucked out when I picked who to tag out to.
Despite mostly obscure characters, I recently started voicetesting a supporting character from a major franchise that I've loved all my life but never had fandom involvement with before. The character is one that gets a lot of hate in non-rp fandom places, but all the castmates and xcanon people I've played off have been really nice and encouraging about them and how I play them.
Got a really cool xcanon CR thread where we're both playing rare-as-fuck characters who turned out to be a perfect match for what could be some neat plotty stuff.
Have found more than one castmate for my most obscure muse. That I didn't beg or enable. Just a total stranger who also picked a blorbo from the same lesser-known source.
