something big going down in clown town

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.

Anon I promise you 99.9% of dwrp is not going to think this about your tags

even if someone is actually a decent writer in a DWRP context, writing for a game premise is pretty different. dwrp is entirely character-focused prose, the world around the characters is often just sort of a grey mess. you rarely see any writing about the environment around the characters past the first couple tags. thats just sort of the style. game premises and such require a lot of that kind of writing to establish the mood. if someone only does dwrp as 'writing practice' then they're never gonna develop that skillset.

whenever i read comments like this i feel like i've found the secret cave with all the good rpers and i've apparently been hoarding them while other people write in gray messes

dwrp isn't so great for writing practice, too. the seeming consensus on what counts for "good" writing around here is stream-of-consciousness journalling with fandom character names attached, and that's not very entertaining to read, let alone reply to.

was this consensus agreed upon at the annual dwrp awards

rewatching ATLA has reminded me that while you can definitely enjoy zutara more than kataang if you want, if you ever watched this show and thought zutara was the real endgame canon? you have terminally bad reading comprehension i'm so sorry to say.

(this is excused if you were 12 at the time but you're on thin ice.)

helluva boss - blitzø/fizz or asmodeus/fizz

(Anonymous) 2024-03-26 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
i have a fizz i'd love to throw against either big oz or blitzø. happy with gen as well as shipping, and anything from h/c angst to fluff and back. also happy to work out aus as well if that's of interest.

pairings aside, would be down to gen thread with anyone, canon or cross canon.

just came across a thread with some deliciously written smut and i am taking notes...... i hope to be half as good as them some day.

Ohoho what notes can you share without outing who you're peeping on?

Veronica Mars: Logan for Veronica

(Anonymous) 2024-03-26 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
Logan Echolls, may I have a word?

(Seriously, though, there is so much to explore here. I'm especially interested in the years between the film and S4, but willing to upload some younger icons and give S1, 2, 3, and maybe even pre-S1 a shot. Then there's the happily ever after option [ha, as if they'd ever be wrapped up that simply] of AUing S4.)

oooo well! i think the magic is in the introspection. like you can really feel how the characters feel for one another and how raw the attraction is on more levels than just sexual. and the tension is so good i'm on the edge of my seat, haha.

(Anonymous) 2024-03-26 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
what game?

(Anonymous) 2024-03-26 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
is this in a game, in a meme, or somewhere out in the world?

(Anonymous) 2024-03-26 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
a meme

Re: RP WOES

(Anonymous) 2024-03-26 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
i would personally call it plain aggressive

RP partner keeps wanting to write new ships but every time I write a starter, they ignore it, and if I bring it up or remind them, they just keep telling me they'll get to it, and weeks go by. And then I notice them boomeranging meme threads with the character(s) in question, so I'm not sure what to think.

We have a psl that's been going on for a year and a half and gets tagged a few times a week at least, so we're rping together pretty consistently. So it's not that we aren't rping, and I don't need to be the one they boomerang threads with; I don't care about that. It just feels bad when I keep getting ignored with these new characters & ships, y'know? Especially after putting in the energy to do these starters that keep getting ignored.
