oh, dreamwidth park is lonely in the dark/all the horny memes have no tag-outs

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.
Do not solicit money, Dreamwidth points, or other currency unless you are offering a good or service in return.

i haven't actually decided yet! up until a few hours ago i was still on the fence about even starting to rp on here, HAHA. but i think once i finally bite the bullet, chances are i'll go with someone from a video game (i have final fantasy brain, but i'm also considering some nier charas) or some animanga (recently been into dungeon meshi and chainsaw man, would love to rp some berserk or monster but i don't think i have the skills to pull it off HAH)

welcome!! especially if you're upfront that you're new, most people will be infinitely happy to answer questions and so on. there is also definitely some room for differences - for example, most of the time on memes you'll see people [ rping in brackets, ] but plenty of people do regular ol' novel-style prose/past tense, too.

when you're setting up your journal, a super useful thing to do is poke around other people's journals and check out their info/permissions posts; it'll help you get a feel for what people prioritize here.

Marian from The Music Man (any rendition, but she was played by Shirley Jones in the 1962 film) sounds like what you're looking for. Honestly, any librarian character will get you a similar look. Try going through this list: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HotLibrarian

we all know it's low-hanging fruit to roast the dumb americans for thinking everything revolves around them, but can you really not conceive any possible reason why there might be a higher volume of busy rpers at once than usual this time of year

don't forget to look past your own nose too lol

Or at least wait until January.

Like if you believe that everyone is going to flake on you regardless of season then do whatever, but this happens every year. Things are only going to get slower and slower around here until 2025.

Welcome! I was new a few years back so I know it can be a lot at first, but you'll fit in soon enough. Also if you ever have questions as you're going, ask people you're interacting with.

1. Games, memes, PSLs (private storylines) are generally the way it is yeah. The best way to get 1-on-1 PSLs is by tagging people on memes and then after the thread is going really well ask them if they'd like to do more. EMP is a good place and also tagging out a lot.

2. I mentioned private storylines above. Tagging out, since we're talking about that, is when you go around and tag other people's top levels. It honestly is one of the better ways to use meme comms in my opinion, because that's how you get a lot of bites. Musebox is generally where you list all the characters you play and you can post entries for your PSLs there. Open post is an entry where anyone can tag in and play with you. CR is character relationships, the blood and sweat of RPing, the bonds that your character makes with other characters.

3. I did come from journal RP so I had some experience with the format. I do think the expectation is mostly to blend in. It depends on what habits you're talking about. Like I said above I have only had good experiences with being new and telling people I am and having them willing to walk me through it. I'm not saying everyone on dwrp can be trusted but there is definitely space for new folks.

sockerpunch, honeysockles, and so many other sock puns were taken

anyway here you go, and again: if i'm slow or a flake or don't respond it's not you, it's this fucking year going for my throat, but ill do my best!

m/f, femdom, superhero/villain

really in the mood to write a hero getting topped by a villain. would love something with an age gap - the hero being younger and relatively inexperience, the villainess being older and powerful, etc. open on kinks, but some favorites include orgasm denial, aphrodisiacs, pegging, and superpowers used in sex (fucking in the air, mind control, pheromones, etc).

originals or canons both fine, i’ve got ideas for either.

Whoopsie doodles! I've never posted a wish list before, my bad. The settings have been tweaked, so you should be good to go, anon! Thank you so much for thinking of them!

hello! the other anons have already answered you well, i just wanted to pop in as a fellow journal-rp newbie to welcome you aboard c: ime, people are really understanding about newness; personal example, in retrospect i think i fumbled some of my early threads, but i've since had some great play since with the same people. it's like someone else said- people mostly just want tags!

big +1 to the anon who suggested looking at permissions posts, too. i found that that, and reading other people's threads, helped me get a decent feel for how things tend to work around here. otherwise, tag around, don't be afraid to reach out, and hope you have fun!

You're welcome! They absolutely sound like they could do with some nice things for the holidays, so thank you for sharing this.

I've sent something for them - and a little gift for you too! Should be arriving tomorrow.

as someone who's active in my local kink community: i know multiple people with the personality of your typical disney princess or magical girl who will eagerly talk like they're in the absolute trashiest hentai doujin

i have heard a man with the wholesome personality of mister rogers call his scene partner a dirty little fuckpig and now you have to live with the mental image too

Found INSTANT ship chemistry in cross canon CR and the player is chill, creative, a fast tagger and just as hype as me. This has never happened to me before and boy oh boy is this FUN!

Thank you so much, anon! I know they'll appreciate anything and everything that they receive. And so am I.

My Christmas wish is that you get an RP thread with all your favorite tropes in it!
