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 post personal information. This includes but is not limited to full names, addresses, phone numbers and so on.
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.

bad ends, with the caveat that i only want this sometimes because i think playing this kind of thing too often could get emotionally exhausting. but occasionally i do like to have psls that end badly, sadly or bittersweetly in some way.

Have you looked at Kabru from Dungeon Meshi/Delicious in Dungeon? Maybe Mugen from Samurai Champloo? Or Tyki Mikk from D.Gray-man (though some minor photoshopping might be required). Maybe Rajendra from The Heroic Legend of Arslan, though his hair's kind of short.

Also, if you don't mind dipping into fanart, there's a lot of genderswapped Esmeralda fanart from Disney's Hunchback. Or maybe Thorns from Arknights.

I just got into a relationship after what’s been a verrrryy long time. I feel so lacking in how-to-date and be a girlfriend because it’s been so long, like I don’t know what normal couples do, what’s an expected amount to text with someone, or if people call others. It’s made me realize that because of my lack of experience and for how long it’s been since my last relationship, I have no idea what “normal” is for a relationship. :C

The classic dark fantasy stuff of the 1960s would be Dark Shadows. It was a soap opera that lasted for about five years. It had vampires, witches, zombies, werewolves, basically every dark fantasy monster you could think of.

However, if you end up sampling it and liking it, Big Finish (An audio drama company famous largely for Doctor Who, but who've also produced content for Highlander, Judge Dredd, Dan Dare, Sherlock Holmes, Robin Hood, Star Trek, and more) has released a ton of Dark Shadows content featuring the original cast. Do not judge it based on the Tim Burton movie.

That said, it's a soap opera from the 60s. There's some questionable stuff regarding Roma in there.

From the mid-70s, if that's not too far, consider Kolchak: The Night Stalker, about a reporter who ends up dealing with supernatural mysteries on a regular basis.

less a woe and more just awkward? when you get an opportunity to have A and B interact but you realize B's player is not either not actually a great rper (grammatical errors, run-on sentences, characterization that's inconsistent or very superficial, info-dumping, one-liners, lack of yes and or putting the onus of progressing the thread on you), or the log or prompt they offer you is criminally boring, or when you sit down and try to make it work anyway you don't see the cr going anywhere interesting despite the ideas you had in your head.

like, the idea of their cr was nice, but the reality of it in actual practice isn't great... sucks. especially when they seem excited about it but you aren't so much anymore.

i love playing pillow queens.... specifically i love turning mean, aggressive characters into them when they icly never would be

haha, no problem! i haven't watched dark shadows but i have watched strange paradise which, you probably know, was also a canadian supernatural soap opera that came out in the late 1960s (why i watched that but never dark shadows idk)

but thanks for replying and recommending kolchak! idk if it'll be relevant to what i'm looking for here but who knows! maybe it'll inspire something else. and maybe i should get around to finally watching dark shadows. it can't be that much worse and offensive than jean paul's increasingly boneheaded decisions

anon, they like you for who you are! just keep doing what youve been doing and dont think about it too much, or it might affect how you look at your relationship and THAT can really tear you two apart. from experience, i obsessed over if i was good enough and kept asking my partner for reassurance and that got tiring over a couple of years for them (understandably so)

just trust that they will tell you when youre doing something wrong, and remember that they love you for you so youre already doing the best you can as their girlfriend!

manipulation/corruption of my good guy type character by his partner who is secretly a villain, the endgame being my character ruling the world or well on his way to doing that with his partner, as murder husbands.

i mentioned this same scenario a few posts ago and am still unfullfilled.

"- characters in positions of authority"

I just had this happen in a PSL of mine, due to plot and character development, and I love it with every piece of my heart. It's a show of how far they've come.

watching a small youtuber's life sink further into the shitter and not feeling great about it. the anxiety is infectious

i see my own flaws and excuses in them. shit has to change. it's time

angst. couples arguing really nastily about things. tempers flaring, characters being icly unreasonable and verbally cruel because they're lashing out. big dramatic fights. soft make ups where no one actually apologizes.
