About Me and My Writing
Hi, you can call me Malibu (or w/e floats thine boat). I'm in my late twenties, my pronouns are she/her. I am both queer myself and obviously queer friendly. I'm not always consistently around due to both some environmental circumstances and personal struggles (it's the mental illness).
My writing style is third person present tense. I do have the ability to write in past tense if present tense bothers you. I can write anywhere from 200 words to about 3,000 (I don't measure in paragraphs as I play a little fast and loose with the definition of "paragraph" aksjdfhg).
While I don't expect you to mirror/length-match me, I am asking for someone who is comfortable writing detailed, literate posts. Not every post has to be 800w, I often dip low in my word count during dialogue heavy scenes. And I'm not asking for perfect spelling every time, lord knows I have a myriad of typos and I don't re-read my posts when I get excited. But I'm asking for the basics.
I am not caught up on the MCU. I just watched Multiverse of Madness last week, which is about where I'm at. I'll have a more comprehensive list of what I do and don't know a little later in the post.
The Rules
Since I'm in my late-late twenties, I'm looking for someone who is at least 23 themselves, but it'd be even better if you were 25+
In this house we double. If you don't know what doubling means, it means that I write both my character and who you want me to write for you, and you write your character and who I want you to write for me. It's a fairness thing derived from the old days of "canon x oc is SO selfish and unfair" which is why old farts like me say it's for "balancing" or "tit for tat" or whatever, since I've seen a lot of confused people lately. If I'm asking for canon x oc, it's only right I offer the same (or whatever it is you want) in return. Something I am completely capable of, I don't know why people make such a big deal out of lying on their fainting couch and claiming they can't do two sets of characters at once. Especially when they're totally okay with writing out background characters at the same time??
I will even triple for you, if you're in the market for a love triangle or a polyam OT3. You do not in any way have to triple in return, in fact I'd prefer if you didn't.
I also am completely comfortable writing as much space filling NPCs and canons as we need. I never let a scene go empty, and I'm happy to write surrounding characters. In fact I do it automatically. Sometimes people are surprised by this. I used to admin group roleplays.
At this time I am not looking for any NSFW content in my roleplays. I fade to black, and I won't be bullied into doing otherwise. (Dick jokes and talking about the fact adults do fuck is fine though, fading to black doesn't mean instant prude status)
I am however alright with like, a bit of violence. About Witcher 3's level is as far as I'm comfortable going: Fights can get messy as a treat if we want, we just don't need to go body horror with the organs, right?
Limits: Are very important, do not forget them. I do not want drugs, alcohol, smoking, vaping, or substance abuse to feature in or out of character. I don't want to see memes about it, I don't want to write about it. Nothing. I should not have to justify this, but my hobby and the dms of people I hope to be friends with is literally the only place I can ask to be a safe space. Because it is everywhere. I'm not judging people, I don't care what you do. I just don't want to hear about it, because I can't escape it anywhere else. I also am not wild about sexual assault, or the community's standard limits list of: pedophilia, incest, bestiality, etc. Leave all of that at the door, thank you. Rule number one of the salon is don't be nasty and you know that!
The mediums I use are: Discord and Email (I'm not keen on writing here on tumblr, but I'd be happy to idk, make a private Proboard or something?)
New rule: Please do not show me AI art of your character. Don't use an AI generator about it if you plan to write with me. Find a picrew or a dress up doll or some random picture on Pinterest. Hell just give me a paragraph description if you have to.
When you message me, do not just ask for my Discord or my Email. Do not just ask if I'm still looking, don't just say hey. The first message is a first impression, make it a good one. Tell me about yourself, tell me who you want me to write for you, what you're thinking, if you're picking up what I am putting down. Put some personality into it: This isn't a job, it's a hobby, it should sound like it when you talk to me. In this same vein, I'd prefer said first impressions are conducted over email, but messaging me on tumblr is fine too I suppose
Characters and "Plots"
First of all, in regards to sexuality / gender / canon / oc identities, everything is peachy keen! M/F, F//, M//, Trans, NB, Canon/OC, Canon//, OC// are all fine by me ā”
My side will be M/F Canon/OC, but you are welcome to request anything you would like. This is Build-A-Bitch and you can, in fact, have it your way.
My side is also M/F in a distinctly queer way. My OC is under the ace umbrella, as well as someone who doesnāt entirely conform to gender, so take that as you will ĀÆ\_(ć)_/ĀÆ
I will make you an OC, I will play multiple Canons for you, you can write as any gender identity or sexuality as you please. Just rub the lamp and make your wish! I will write almost any Canon for you, barring noted exceptions.
That out of the way, here's what I'm looking for!
I am looking for you to write: Tony Stark against my OC. I would particularly love to write for you: Steve, Bucky, Quill, Peter (Parker, MCU or Insomniac), Rocket (I will not make him a human), Drax, Stephen, Sam, Yuri (Watanabe, Insomniac), May (MCU), Mantis, Quentin Beck (Insomniac), Yelena, Natasha, Agatha, damn near anyone your gay heart desires Who I'm not particularly keen to write: Thanos, Quentin Beck (MCU), Tony Stark (duh)
And here's some plot jumping off points I've got rattling around in here, my favorites I'll mark w a heart scale out of five:
Iron Man 2008 ā„ā„ā„ā„ā„
My OC x Pre-established, Pre-Afghanistan Tony and working through the films? His life? An AU? W/e, but starting in 2008 Iron Man
Now I know a lot of people tend to cringe at pre-established or in general think itās boring. But I donāt mean they were already like super together and had had a full character arc and everything prior to the roleplay ever starting. What I mean by this is I want to play with a plot where my OC and Tony were acquainted (preferably as friends with benefits) prior to his abduction in by the Ten Rings. During his time away my OC will realize oops! She accidentally fell in love with the emotionally unavailable playboy she was supposed to be having a not serious relationship with! And now heās probably dead. Cue emotional turmoil! I like to pick the plot up at and start the roleplay when he comes home from Afghanistan, and work through the no doubt complicated feelings going on, building their relationship throughout the timeline. Iām not asking for insta-love. Iām just asking for two people who know each other and now have a whole lot of baggage to haul out of the basement thanks to someoneās near death experience.Ā Iām also not looking for this idea some people have that a roleplay ends with a couple getting together. I donāt want to artificially postpone them getting together, but again Iām not asking for insta-love. Just for something to evolve naturally. Iām sure thatās all obvious but I have had people try to withhold them from dating for esoteric reasons, and I just want to cover my bases since this is the most frequently misunderstood plot I want to do. Now obviously, this is very self indulgent. I would never dream of asking for this for my side without being willing to absolutely reciprocate. If you have a Marvel bae you want to work through the films with or some other self indulgent ask you never get to use, ask away. I am happy to do whatever you want for your side in exchange. I also recognize this is disgustingly self indulgent, but what is roleplay if not the wish fulfillment hobby? Naturally, in return, I am happy to write whatever self indulgent AU you are after!
Guardians of the Galaxy (1, 2, Game, whatever!) ā„ā„ā„ā„ā„
General space shenanigans. Tony + his found family the Guardians is extremely important to me.
I absolutely adore throwing Tony and my OC up into the cold, unforgiving expanse of space to be picked up by the Guardians. Them acting as a found family for Tony just means a lot to me, especially with how the writers for the MCU just. Refused to make the Avengers friends? If they wonāt let the Avengers be friends, then Iāll give Tony friends by way of the Guardians god damn it. (Yes, him being Friends with Rocket and Nebula in Endgame was very important to me, thank you for asking) I am perfectly happy with your side being either from Earth or from space! Although this idea revolves around the Guardians, please donāt feel like your love interest has to be from the space scape, as I am ready and willing to find a way to drop kick everyone into space regardless of where your love interest comes from. If curious! My most commonly utilized plot involves the Collector hiring someone, be it the Guardians or another faction, to scoop up Tony. Frequently the reasoning is either A) Tonyās suit and reactor is unique, and heās interested, or B) heās interested in getting him as a gladiator present for his brother, the Grandmaster's, birthday. We donāt have to use this idea, I am happy to come up with others, brainstorm something together if you like But I know people often wonder how I plan to get them up there, and that oneās a pretty sure bet.
Potential Firefly influence?
Either instead or or in addition to the thoughts above, we could add some Firefly spice into this? Firefly is cowboys in space, letās be real, and Quill gives a lot of pretending at being a space cowboy energy. I think kind of slapping him with some Mal energy could be really fun if you want him as a love interest.Ā Not required! Just something Iāve talked about with some people before and I am pretty fond of.
Miscellaneous
I'm also currently in Chapter 7 of the 2021 video game! And I love it a lot so far. I don't know anything about the comics (but want to start reading them soooon especially the arc where Tony is with them š„ŗ) and we don't at all have to stick to the MCU version of the Guardians (especially since I have my own headcanon version of Quill rattling around in my head that's 100% not Crisp Rat askjdhfg) I just love the Guardians as a concept. I love space families, I love Firefly and Star Trek is one of my favorite childhood series as well, and I love all the space stuff in Steven Universe, etc etc. I just love space settings LOL esp slice of life space settings (ST:TNG my beloved)
Insomniac's Spider-Man ā„ā„ā„
So Iām like too in love with this game. As someone who never read the comics, and didnāt really get into Tobeyās Spider-Man and catch the bug like my sibling did, I feel like with this game I finally get it, you know? Spider-Man is one of the most popular superheroes, and I wasnāt like. On the hype train. But now Iām on the hype train.Ā Iām unfortunately not really sure what I want to do with these games. All I know is that I love them, and Iād trade several organs to be able to write Insomniacās Peter for you. I want to write him so so bad I just think heās wonderful. I also love Yuri but not nearly as much as Peter.Ā We could follow the games, maybe do some pre-game stuff with Peter? Explore some of the 8 years prior to the game of him being Spidey? Maybe expand on some of the lore tidbits we get throughout the game in dialogue and mostly the backpack collectables? We could also do some post-game (any of the three) stuff. We could rewrite some of the game! We could save some characters maybe. Iām not sure! Iād love to explore literally anything with this, so if you have something in mind please let me know!Ā Iād love to figure out some ways to incorporate other Marvel characters too, just because seeing all the little nods and hints in the games to other villains or heroes or the dialogue tied to certain landmarks, or Otto getting bankrolled by Advanced Idea Mechanics: that shit was thrilling. Iād love to find a way to do more of this, even if itās just figuring out how we slam dunk Iron Man into the scene.Ā
Thor: Ragnarok ā„ā„
Science Bro reunion on the planet of trash is very good, ten outta ten. Love to slam dunk people into Sakaar.
I donāt have a whole lot more to say about this honestly? Other than we can also throw in whatever canon you want that isnāt normally there. Want the Guardians to show up? Carol? Want to slam dunk your bae in the gladiator ring too? Regardless of the movie Iām anchoring a plot to, I will throw anyone and everyone into the ring if you want.
Spoiled Princess gets anything she asks for, details at eleven.
I also have an AU where my OC (still human) was adopted by the Grandmaster as a baby, and is essentially the princess of trash planet, and Sakaar is where she meets Tony. Typically I have her ask her dad to spare Tony by way of insisting that he has a champion in the Hulk, why canāt she ever have a champion? He canāt just melt stick everything she takes an interest in! Other than that not much to say, I feel like Ragnarok is a pretty straight forward setting. Most of the ideas for this one would come about in talking it out with you.
Multiverse Stuff ā„ā„ā„ā„?
Loosey goosey thoughts
I have a few multiverse ideas, one of which is original but could also be tied to NWH if we wanted. Another one involves TVA/Loki s1 stuff. We could probably swing something DSMOM related! Most of it deals with my OC having been involved with a Tony (be it MCU or some other universe's Tony), and loses him. Then typically she either tries to find a way to fix it (TVA intervenes) or she goes on a grief fueled vigilante spree and gets somehow knocked into a new dimension (original/nwh) where she can stop this universe's Tony from suffering the same fate, blah blah blah. It's all pretty loose and idk how super attached I am to it, but I came up with it because I was sad about IWEG and watching Phase 4 is hard LOL I also have a Spider-AU for my OC (who is normally just a civilian and doesn't have any powers other than This Stick She Foundā¢), because who among us didn't make a Spider AU after seeing Spider-Verse LOL
Marvel Rivals ā„ā„
Hero shooter go brrrr
I don't even know. I don't even know! All I know is every time I hear a Tony voice line I make noises like a wounded dog because I love him so so so so much. And there's LORE? THERE'S FANFIC???? IN MY HERO SHOOTER??? RIGHT THERE IN THE HERO PAGE? I haven't read them all yet bc I've been like. Too excited. About it. Too hyped about actual fiction I can read in the heroes tab. But fuck if I'm not like frothing at the mouth about this game, I played both the Alpha and the Beta and now I'm just. Losing my mind in the full release. Everyone is so cool?????? Holy shit?????
Marvel's Avengers (Crystal Dynamics, 2020) ā„ā„ā„ā„
THE HATERS WERE WRONG
(i'm copying this from somewhere else and i'm too lazy to do proper sentence caps, sorryyyyy) HELP? HELLO??? i know. this game. has so many problems. i know this game had so many problems and was such a disappointment it was delisted from digital storefronts and the only way to play it now is if you already owned it, or you can find a disc copy. i know. i know the rituals are intricate. but i got the disc for christmas '23 i think and finally got around to putting it in and h e lP?? i'm playing the reassmble campaign for transparency (as.......... in my opinion, i know others felt differently but in my opinion the combat. mm. sucks. LMAO) and im losing my mind. i'm going feral. i literally cannot??? handle it?? i'm beside myself and i know, i know, it's a really big and embarrassing reaction for what is probably in all likelihood a mid game that needed more time in the oven to cook and didn't get it BUT THE CHARACTER WRITING..... I LOVE THEM YOUR HONOR?? I REALLY LOVE THEM??? it feels like for once (as someone again w primary knowledge in the mcu) they understood that...these people are... friends???? the way bruce and tony have like. beef. but they TALK IT OUT? THEY OVERCOME THEIR DIFFERENCES? THEY APOLOGIZE??? not to mention it's got that like. bbrrrrr supers are bad we're using the media to make you think supers are dangerous kind of fictional politics i go apeshit for and JARVIS! JARVIS IS IN THIS GAME! AND HE'S IMPORTANT??? LIKE HE ALWAYS SHOULD'VE BEEN??? HE'S A MAIN FUCKING CHARACTER jarvis is like. my second favorite marvel character ever and i have many loud passionate opinions about jarvis and that he's here and part of the team and adored by the team? and respected???? is everything to me THAT TONY AND JARVIS GET TO BE OPENLY AFFECTIONATE TO EACH OTHER AND ACKNOWLEDGE EACH OTHER'S IMPORTANCE IN THEIR LIVES???? REVOLUTIONARY that's his little guy that's his little guy he should get to be that way !!! (what they did to their rship in the mcu post-vision i will never forgive i s2g. i love vision. as his own separate character, they didn't have to tear jarvis to shreds like that) i would love to do something with the reassemble campaign or something like it or even if we don't plot anything in this game if you're like. aware. if you've played/watched the game hell that's good enough for me i'm just going batshit insane over the character writing, mundane and thin on the ground as it is ;; ;; like this bruce is so good??? hes??? oh my god??? i wanna write this bruce SO badly if you have ever wanted to hulk smash this man please please pLEASE LET ME WRITE THIS BRUCE FOR YOU???? PLEAAASSEEE okay i'm done begging i think idk what else to say here except im like. salivating over this game i've been so embarrassing in my friends dms about it aslkjdhfg
Alternate Universe ā„ā„ā„ā„
I'm always always always super down for an AU. We could use other media as the AU (Star Trek, Gargoyles, Disney/Fairytales, Indiana Jones, Anime, Jurassic Park, Steven Universe - literally name it, if I know it I can probably get hype about workshopping an AU) For more generic tropes/genres I loooove Fantasy AUs, D&D AUs, I love space and robots and sci-fi, I super love spies!! Like oh my gosh spy AUs are some of my favorites. It's like spies, fantasy, space slice of life, and androids are probably my four favorite genres? I'm super down for anything though. I also looove monster AUs, like vampire Tony?? Hello???? You could probably suggest anything and I'd be happy to babble about it. Magical Girls? Dungeon Meshi? Baldur's Gate? (though that's just Gale. Let's be real with ourselves. alkjhdjkg it's 100% why I am romancing Gale) I'm a slut and a whore for AUs aslkjdhfg and I am also a slut and a whore for tending to have like Six AUs I talk about all at the same time with partners who are tolerant of that behavior slkjdfg
Okay !! That should take care of the plot and characters section, onto the last little bit!
What Media Do I Know?
MCU:
Where I'm At:
Phases 1-3, Wandavision, Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Black Widow, Loki Season 1 (but not S2 yet!), Shang-Chi, a few episodes of What If, Hawkeye, Eternals, No Way Home, Multiverse of Madness, GOTG Holiday Special
What I'd Prefer Not to Do:
IWEG. At least in the way it was shown to us. I'd prefer to just nuke it from existence entirely through plot points that circumvent it altogether, but I understand the blip is like. important or whatever to most of Phase 4 aslkdhjfg so if you want to do something in P4, we can workshop this.
Other Marvel Entries:
Insomniac's Spider-Man, Miles Morales, and Spider-Man 2
Chapter 7 of Squeenix's Guardians of the Galaxy (2021)
Deadpool, Deadpool 2 (though I didn't care for the second film) I haven't seen the third yet since it's in theaters and since covid I don't go to those, but I'll see it eventually š¤·
Days of Future's Past, X-Men First Class
Into the Spider-Verse, but not Across the Spider-Verse yet
Marvel Rivals! Yeah there's not a lot of content there but I also really like the dialogue writing alskshjdfg (and as an Overwatch fan I'm used to this like No Content But Somehow the Voice Lines Make It Worth It vibe lmao
I own Squeenix's Avengers, TTG's GOTG, and the Iron Man VR game that I all plan to play but haven't yet
Alright, I think that's probably it!
Hope to hear from you guys, but if I don't, good luck on your searches!
And for those who stuck around to the end and are interested in contacting me, here is my email that you can do that at:
beachcityshores (at) gmail (dot) com
(sorry for it not being very copy-pasteable, trying to avoid you know whats just scraping my email and spamming me)
We can totally RP via Discord, but you gotta get my handle by talking to me first. I'm getting tired of handing out my disco only to be hit with "hi i saw your ad :)" great what do you want [insert something I didn't ask for here]
If you're gonna make me pull teeth at least pay me a dentist's salary first <33
Bye!
