Re: opinion poll

1. Absolutely want them, anytime.

2. I'm usually LCW, but recently picked up a few muses from a relatively popular anime. I'm open to m/f and m/m, though I may want to start gen with an OC in a way I might not with a canonmate. Still, approach me with an idea and I'm down to clown.

Also, please bring your OCs to my OCs, I have a bunch of my own.

3. I don't want to be asked first, but if you have an idea to run with, I'd love to hear it up front.

4. I am not interested in OCs clearly made for smut, whose personalities are tits and ass.

I'm also sort of wary when I see someone playing multiple OCs in the same verse who are deeply intertwined with another's stories to where I don't know where my character is supposed to work themselves into the existing dynamic. Like, if you're writing a novel and you have your main characters up on memes who are clearly codependent or otherwise really clearly defined by how they relate to one another, I don't feel drawn to engage with that.

For me, part of the fun of OCs is the way they're not inherently tied to a plot and can shift to play against other characters more freely and open-endedly.
