OKAY FUCKERS WE HAVE REACHED 100!!! SOMEONE POP OUT THE HEARTS

this chapter was honestly what I should've expected. mitsukouers we have been fed and are probably going to be put into the closet once more going forwards so let us say thanks for these last few chapters, as well as all the other 99 chapters that came before this one. it's been amazing and I hope it continues to be so!!

now, I'm not one for making long posts myself. however!! this makes for a special occasion so I will have to make do :)

!!! SPOILERS FOR TOILET BOUND HANAKO-KUN CHAPTER 100 !!!

So,

this chapter was great! Though as always I wished that there had been more, what we got was a... pretty satisfying close to this arc.

I will say, as much as I loved what did happen, it felt like it was missing something. Like there was a part of this chapter bring held back. (and no I don't mean that there wasn't a mitsukou kiss this chapter, though that of course was missed as well)

I feel like they really needed to talk more about... well... fucking everything I guess? but, then again, it is so like them to not say shit even when its so important for them to communicate about it (i.e. the way they refuse to address the way they are both for sure going insane at this point, kou seemingly giving up on thinking about his morality when it comes to caring for mitsuba, mitsuba clearly only wanting kou to exorcize him regardless of the bs he said about teru being fine too, tsukasa, etc etc). I would've loved to see them have some proper talks about all of that and more, but also I can't see them doing that in anyway that wouldn't feel ooc and wrong for them.

Mitsuba and Kou just don't do that.

Or at least, not anymore.

Before, I'm sure there would have been some sort of talking. Something just shy of an argument maybe or a full on breakdown.

But now I think it's a bit late for that.

They were both already teetering off and on the edge by the time the severance happened and I think after all of that I think any chance of having proper communication about all the shit they've been through together, for each other, and what bullshit they'll pull going into the future is off the god damn ledge kou jumped from in That One Chapter.

The ending of this chapter solidified this for me more than anything else I think. We got Kou basically asking Mitsuba to live if only to come with him to the school festival, if for nothing else, which is for sure going to be the next Big Event Thing. and then at the very end Mitsuba mentions being hungry and Kou replies with silence which makes me think that their night isn't over yet, and Kou is beyond prepared to get his hands dirtier to help him. This probably won't be addressed, at least not by these two directly after last chapter. If anything I'm kinda hoping Teru will be the one to do it but that's neither here nor there.

All in all, this was a pretty useless ramble of me basically saying I love mitsukou (derogatory) and that they are every reason for my unwell mind.

Anyways mitsukou is canon I'm the heart Mitsuba ate thanks for coming to my Ted talk

I’m gonna unleash a bit of salt in order to get this out of my system. Now that the excitement has died down a bit, to be quite honest, I feel like the Pomefiore arc was rather underwhelming. Don’t get me wrong. The first half of this arc until Deuce and Epel go out is great. (Even if I have issues with it, for reasons I’ll get into in a bit.) Just this update makes me feel mixed.

More undercut because of spoilers.

Issues I had with it

Why didn’t Jack play a bigger role in this arc? The flashbacks flat out stated that the two are close friends since they were little kids. You think that Jack would step in and help out a lot more if they have that close of a bond.

The climax seemed underwhelming storywise. It just seemed like Vil just shrugged and decided to randomly poison Neige out of nowhere. Then Rook stops Vil and he gets pissed, and then overblot. That just just seems rather basic to me. I thought that there would be a lot more to it like someone getting poisoned and the team curing them before confronting Vil or something more than just that.

Someone on Discord said that he was disappointed since the rhythmic battle with Vil was super easy to beat compared to Jamil and some of the other dorm leaders. I don’t play the game, so I can’t back that up. But there’s that, I guess.

Is it just me or did it take very little for Vil to overblot? He only used his powers only twice this arc, and then overblot. Hell, Leona used his powers more often than Vil before he overblotted! Like what happened with Leona, that doesn’t make sense or fit the established lore, seeming like a giant plothole. Idk, the story could have done a better job at building up to him overblotting and had him use his powers far more.

I’m kinda disappointed that Neige and Vil aren’t stepbrothers. I feel like something like that would’ve added more meat to their conflict. For one, it would parallel Snow White with Vil being jealous of a family member. It would’ve made the conflict much more personal on both ends, giving more meaning to the rivalry between them.

Neige and Vil hardly interacted, despite their spat being the centre point of that whole arc. I would’ve liked them interacted at least a lot at the end. (Yes, I know Leona hardly interacted with Malleus in his arc, but the latter doesn’t get out all that much and Leona was a lot more crafty with his plan, so there’s at least an explanation why.)

Someone posted a theory on here before this part came out about how Grant and some of the other dwarves getting jealous of Vil's team's skill, so Grant decides to go behind Neige's back to "cancel" Vil, saying his dirty laundry. This makes Vil extra pissed, thinking, "Fuck it. If I can't get my way playing fair, then I'll take him out of the competition." After the battle, they apologize for how they treated him and undo the damage. I would've loved to see that play out, considering that would make the conflict more nuanced, and, for a lack of a better term, adult. If this was the case, Neige's teammates would be like Janice from Mean Girls in the sense that they were equally in the wrong and ruthless. Sure, poisoning people is wrong, obviously, but so is what they did.

What’s with the poisoned apple in the opening credits? And Kalim’s story that seemed like foreshadowing? And Jamil/Kalim’s skills about knowing how to deal with those who are poisoned? Or Deuce falling behind the rest of the team? What about Vil pressuring Epel like he forced him into the competition for some dark reason? (Yes, I know he used Epel’s juice at the end, but there seemed to be more to it than that, because Vil could’ve poisoned any food or drink item and got the same result.) Those plot points sure lead to fucking nowhere.

Vil’s backstory seemed underwhelming and the least justified out of any of the dorm leaders so far. What’s his dark and “tragic” backstory? He just hated being typecast as a villain in roles and when he was very small some people were scared of him because they thought he was the same character that he played in a movie before they outgrew it for obvious reasons. Seriously, that’s it?! That’s his only motivation for steeping so low as to poison someone?! I get why he would be upset about about being typecast, but after seeing what others like Jamil went through during their pasts, it just seems like nothing. All actors are typecast in some way real life! I mean, people typecasted Robert Patterson after his role as Edward Cullen, but you didn’t see him snap like that after people doubted that he could play Batman. At least Azul was constantly bullied and fat shamed throughout his childhood, so his actions make far more sense. Vil just comes across as very melodramatic and his attempt to poison Neige just seems extremely unjustified. All it took was for a casting director say that “he wasn’t chosen for the role because they wanted a more ‘bland’ looking man in the main role” one time and Neige is his archenemy for life. It reminds me a lot of how Lance named Keith as his rival in Voltron, despite not knowing him. That seems rather OOC to me. Before it seemed like he was like Miranda from Devil Wears Prada where he was a strict and took things too far, but was professional and above else logical. Him declaring Neige as his rival just over that seems rather petty and isn’t something that a logical person like him would do. I wish his backstory was more inline with Jamil and Riddle’s where it alluded to some serious issues with the entertainment industry, just so that way his actions make more sense. (Seriously, you have no idea how fucked up entertainment industry can get. There’s a reason why former child stars are often so messed up in the head as adults.)

On a similar note, I kinda wish that the something happened on the team or in his personal life that pushed him over the edge like someone being injured on the team, putting the VDC in jeopardy, so he got desperate enough to do something that stupid and against his morals. Again, just so his actions made more sense and him trying to poison Neige came less out of nowhere.

Am I the only one that hates Vil’s overblot design? I’m a graphic designer. It looks far too busy, uses a lot of weird textures, there’s no visual hierarchy, it has nipples on it...for some reason, and he looks too much like those Virgin Mary paintings instead of a queen that he’s supposed to be. It just doesn’t suit his character at all. (Personally, if I designed the outfit, I would put him in a purple gown with a light purple cape, a high collar and crown on his head.) Then again, this is coming from the same person who hates Jamil’s overblot design, so take that with a mountain of salt.

Over all, I thought this arc would be epic, but it just felt meh when everything's said and done. I wouldn't be surprised it failed to deliver because of the hiatus making me build up false expectations for it in my head. Covid 19 probably messed up a lot of aspects of this arc. Understandable, but it still sucks, since I was looking forward to it.

Though, I swear if Vil loses the competition, because of “the villain must be punished in any Disney universe” bs, I’ll flip a table. (Because that’s not how things work in real life. This isn’t an underdog sports movie where a team can half ass their way to a victory. Neige’s team was super sloppy with their routine and Vil’s was just better on all accounts, so he should obviously win. Vil deserves that after all the hard work he put into this. Having Neige randomly win would go against what the game set up so far with it subverting a lot of anime tropes.)

Having said that, I love a lot of things about this arc. Everything until just this update is pretty solid storywise. Just I wish the story took its time more with this section to have it come together more properly. Though, I would’ve still liked Jack to play a larger role and for Vil to use his magic more often, since those were issues even before the update.

Eh, either way, I’ll just follow my original outline and make the changes I suggested in this rambling to my own take of the Pomefiore arc in my fic...once I get to that point, that is. It’s canon divergent anyways and I already said that arc would be different, so I don’t care if breaks away from the canon.

OOC: To everyone who did or didn’t send a meme (plus mutuals), I wanna thank you for liking my blog. I know it doesn’t mean much because in a fast, it could go away and all of my / our hard work could go into the abyss, but rp is fun. It’s supposed to be fun. And this is where I spend most of my time, making graphics, writing really old--late (i’m sorry!) replies, talking to muns, creating aus, etc. It means a lot, it does. My ocs are my babies, and even my other muses too in other realms, but it means a lot because I put a lot of effort in to try and be cool. And even if being ‘cool’ is overrated, it just makes me feel like I actually belong on here considering all the shit, in real life and online bs I’ve been through. You guys are great, and please, toss any one of your muses at me, even though I’m slow with replies, I applaud the ones who put in the effort just like I try to do. #Whoops #sorrynotsorry #toosappy

If any of you need a shoulder to cry on, someone to scream at (about someone else, mind you), plot with, rant to, etc. I’m here. I really mean it. I have my phone on me at work, and I make time for everyone. I guess I’m really the mom friend. But anyways, seriously. I’m down for anything, and I hope my friendliness doesn’t rub off too badly, because I don’t mean anything maliciously and I mean the best!

I work hard into putting as much effort and love as I can into my muses, and recently been getting amazing feedback despite the fact I wanna ditch half of my muses because of repeat themes, or being underused, but I’m going to try to be back and try my hardest. School might be coming up soon-- I’m not looking forward to it-- but I gotta keep writing. Even if I think sometimes I’m pure shit, I try for you guys, and I try for myself because it makes me happy. I ramble and rant, feel free to tell me to shut up, but it’s true. So again, thank you guys again for being so sweet. <3

woosh !! so i was trying to keep my ooc identity a surprise until now, but apparently i was stupid and y’all found out before i could get this up so...yay!! anyways, i’ll try to keep this short and simple! i’m jada, and this is my second baby, and the last for a while - mr. daein “devin” kim! he’s 23, the lead vocal & lead dancer of impulse, and an overall mess. he’s got a lot to work out, but i’m excited to see what i can do with him and how he grows & develop! he’s a little more on the chaotic side than micha is, but don’t let it scare you off! i swear i’ve got a plot page coming really soon, like tomorrow, but in the meantime - here’s his profile & bio! i’m more than happy to plot with you, though, so like this for me to hop in your ims!! trivia & some hawaii event ideas / general plot ideas under the cut.~

ok let’s get this started!! i promise to try to make this short & sweet as possible (but you know i’m jada so-). but before i wrote daein’s profile i made like a....3 page bullet summary of what i wanted him to be, so i’m going to be inputting some of those here!! so if it sounds a bit rambly...you know why!

if you’re just here for the event thread ideas, scroll down towards the end, where hawaii event ideas is in bold! <3

born on march 24th, 1996!

parents koreans from seoul, korea. met through a study abroad program @ their college, fell in love with each other and the us! had baby daein, who got plopped in the middle of tampa, florida!

his whooooole childhood felt like he was living in isolation. being one f the only asian-american kids on the block, he definitely felt like an outsider. when he’d bring kimbap, kimchi, or tteokbokki for lunch, they’d always look at him all confused like?? what is that

it made him sad bc he always had felt like his different was a good thing, and he’d been raised to be proud of his culture, but apparently not??

as a sidenote kid misheard his name in middle school and was like “devin?” and he was like “sure that’s it” and started going by that outside of home ever since bc it made him feel more american

just throughout his whole childhood he was ridiculed for being different, which was really the start of his obsession with other’s satisfaction and being like everyone else!

so he took matters into his own hands, but in the worst way possible. during this time, he went against everything his parents had taught him and essentially rejected his korean culture. he stopped bothering to learn the tidbits of korean they were trying to teach him, never brought up his culture, and kind of distanced himself from his parents. he always was trying to bring up some excuse for why they couldn’t come to events because he was always embarrassed about their english and how different they all looked compared to everybody else. just...not a good time and his parents were very upset w/him

anyways onto happy times!! middle school was when he discovered his passion for dance, hip hop in particular. he would always be so amazed by the dancers at the boardwalk performing and decided that’s what he wanted to do!!

sOooOo he originally started off as being self-taught through videos on youtube, but eventually his parents agreed to let him dance if he a.) promised it wouldn’t mess up his grades and b.) he paid for them his own

and he did!! it was Hard but he made sure his grades were in check & picked up a part-time job at the ice cream parlor near his house to get money. it was minimum wage and he had to wear a cheesy apron with this ice cream cone hat but anyways

he could only afford one lesson a week at the community dance center, but it taught him a lot!!! where he discovered his true passion for dance, and tbh spent more time there than anywhere else

eventually!! he joined a florida dance crew and that’s when his skills really blossomed and people started taking him seriously, basically was there until the beginning of high school

tw: drug and alcohol addiction!

and then high school is when it...all came crashing down. being such a people pleaser, he fell victim to peer pressure. he was scared of being looked down again, because by now he’d formed a name for himself and was pretty popular. so, to continue blending in, started getting heavily into drinking and drugs and just...not good, because he grew really dependent on it and started losing his enthusiasm for everything else. it’s something he continues to struggle with a lot, although it’s mostly drinking nowadays and the only drug he’s involved with on a regular basis is weed?? but he has relapsed and that’s a major reason he needs people around him to keep him stable!!

also the dance team wouldn’t let him back in bc he failed the drug test and his drug spiral just got worse because he had nothing else to focus his energy on.

it was the only thing that really made him feel something other than dance, and now that he was spending all of his money on it he couldn’t even do that.

tw: drug and alcohol addiction - end!

he partially discovered his love for singing after the months he had to go w/o dancing. he really started to enjoy it but only in private because he was Embarrased of what others would think so

his parents were tired of his bs because he was a junior now and they were basically like we’re tired of the people we hang around and you need to be around family, so for spring break they sent him to seoul!!

boy was hEated alr. like i said, wasn’t a fan of his culture, he had to leave his friends who were all going on fun trips, & he knew NOTHING - not the language, the people, anything.

but when he got there??? kind of actually enjoyed it. he got to meet family he’d never met before, picked up a little of the language, all of that. but hongdae??? - that’s what made him really excited.

he never thought of korea to be a very exciting place, until he went there. there were so many other talented dancers and he felt so at home, but unlike in florida, they looked like him!

so this is where it gets a little funny lmao. his family refused to fund his habits but he wanted to go to a club while he was there to have fun and impress girl??? so basically, he went to hongdae, and tried busking for some extra cash. and he LOVED IT!! for a reference he freestyled to turn up the music by chris brown lol

and it was real fun!! he genuinely had a really good time - but right before he left some random ass man left him a little slip, and he was like ??? and then he asked him his name, and daein barely understood what he said and in english was like “hey i’m devin??” and when the man realized he was like yes!! and daein was like no??? but took the slip anyways and turns out it was an invitation to a gold star audition!!

the second daein read it said kpop he essentially was like “lmao no” and just threw it in his bag. so he went home, and kind of forgot about it all, until a few months after he got home. things weren’t really looking up for him and he really wanted to continue his dance career, he just didn’t know how. he didn’t get accepted to the college he wanted to because of that time his grades had plummeted, and it was hard to land a stable dance job. & his parents were like look if you don’t make this dance thing happen we’re going to throw you into a business job with a suit and tie u need money

and daein!! hates!! corporate!! so he was like hell no and decided to give this idol thing one last chance

so - he submitted a video audition to gold star, and low and behold!! he made it!!

even though this was his saving grace, he really didn’t know what to do about it. because i mean he loved tampa, and he didn’t want to leave?? but when his parents heard the opportunity they were ELATED because they knew dance was the only thing that really put his focus on good things & they wanted him to be in korea with his family and all that. so!! they were like DO IT. and he really had no other choice so he was like uhhhh i guess

flash forward to the end of may!! right after the end of his junior year of school in tampa, he moved to korea to start training. since he had a pretty good experience during spring break of the year before, he expected his life to be better than he’d expected!! but...it was really hard. since he had to live there, and he was only 16, he felt really lost w/o his parents, and his only real family there were his grandparents and cousins he barely every said hi to so that sucked

tw: depression and light substance abuse!

around this time was when he developed signs of depression, just as he started training. because it was when he really discovered that he couldn’t please everybody, something that he’d strived to do his whole life.

he lacked a support system & didn’t have anyone really close to him to make the transition better, since his parents were back in florida and he could barely hold a conversation with his family in korea. this is a big reason he remained dependent on drinking especially, because it got him out of his funk and to temporarily forget about all that was going on.

because of it, daein started getting less sleep, eating less, and all that. gold star noticed it really soon and got him in touch with a psychiatrist, which, eventually diagnosed him with depression. but it’s not something he goes around telling everyone, he has some evident signs but he probably wouldn’t openly tell more than a couple really close & trusted friends. but gold star has been monitoring his mental health to make sure he’s okay mentally. he takes medication but?? it doesn’t do him much good but they’re always hounding him about it so

like i said though, he’s a very independent person so he doesn’t like to feel like he’s a burden, which is why he doesn’t want others to know because he feels like they’re gonna pity him!!

tw: depression and light substance abuse! - end

bc of his more tan skin (back in the day from florida, not really anymore) and broken korean, he felt like a foreigner, but also people would mistake him for having korean nationality whenever they would talk to him. so he felt like he couldn’t really fit either mold, because he was out of place in korea and florida. but!! i digress

he felt like he was kind of thrust into who’s next: origin story because by the time it started he had only been a trainee for...4 months?? like it’s crazy & he clearly wasn’t ready, a major reason for him being on the losing end, but he had the loveable foreigner thing going on so he did get a good fanbase!! even though he was criticized for his short training period

i doubt he was a favorite among the trainees because he’s REEEEEALLY introverted,,, especially in social situations where he’s not the most comfortable with people in so i don’t think he was super talkative.

a big reason he has trouble on variety shows now!! it’s not that he doesn’t like but they’ve kind of turned it into a “mysterious” thing, which is fine to him if it mean he doesn’t have to talk as much

also he hated it because he constantly had to dodge staff & other trainees whenever he wanted to drink or smoke so he was probably always trying to find a way to sneak out when they had any kind of free time

he got a lotlotlot better at singing during training though, though they’re kind of forcing an unnatural tone for his voice which is making him strain and can’t be good for him in the long run but marketing!! so. anyways he loves singing a lot more than he did before, he’d always expected to be just a dancer but they unleashed his potential so!! that’s one thing he really enjoyed about training

basically he’s been marketed as the “sexy foreigner” and he kinda hates it ngl. because while he never was attached to his korean identity, the more he’s been here the more he’s just wanted to be the same as everybody else?? so that’s not helping with anything. he’s always kind of laughed at for being clueless when a joke flies over his head, made to say things in english ALL THE TIME, just all that. it really gets on his nerves bc nowadays he just wants to blend in and they’re not making it any better!!!

it may sound confusing but basically: as a teen he rejected his korean identity to blend in with everyone in florida, now he’s in korea and wants to be known as less of an american to blend it. it all comes down to him wanting to be like everyone else is nearly every aspect!!

since he feels like he cheated & got to debut way too easy than some others, he’s been trying to develop his creative and performance skills so he can get more credit and make a name for himself due to his actual abilities rather than just,, him being american lmao!! also trying super super hard to get as good as he can at korean

tw: drug and alcohol addiction!

he still has some trouble getting around & he still feels lost, but he’s trying his best. struggling through his alcohol addiction, which bc is mildly aware about but really trying to keep quiet and he’s been on the verge of leaving more than a few times. but as quiet as he is about it, he really relies on his members a lot to keep himself afloat!! so he appreciates them putting through his shit a lot of the time more than he'll admit.

tw: drug and alcohol addiction! - end

but rn he’s getting better, slightly, focusing more of his energy into music than anything. he really wants to get into the songwriting industry to get a name for himself on his own instead of just being known for impulse!!

just as a fyi since it’s a bit confusing his birth name is daein, he went by devin when he lived in america, but he goes by daein again now that he’s in korea, but his stage name is still devin and that’s what his friends from america call him. he prefers to be called daein nowadays, though, so that’s probably the safest best!

also this has not been short at all but anyways

hawaii plots!

he likes to drink & get high way too much and what better place than to do that then on vacation?? he’s been trying to stop, but look, it’s vacation and he’s unwinding and if your muse is down they can both have fun!!

such. an. introvert. even more than micha, because 80% of his interactions by choice come from his group?? but i would love to get him some new friends (especially since he literally has none right now lol)

he’s a bit of a hoe ngl so!! hookups are accepted, that’s the one time he’s not afraid of striking up conversation!!

he’s in the red team so like micha, if you’re members in the red team he could use some buddies to be with!!

someone to explore the island with during the night!

general plots!

he lives in an apartment my himself atm, but a roommate would be lovely!! he needs someone to put him out of his funk, anyways.

drinking buddies ofc

trainee friends? someone who wasn’t put off by him being super quiet and befriended it and he’s super grateful nowadays?

give me all the angst & romance because he’s a handful, seriously, phew

besties!! someone that makes him soft and happy bc there are few people who make him super happy & excited, so someone fill in the gap!

#omg i queuef this for 6 aM whY #i was like...i guess nobody sees it??#ugh i'm real stupid #( & ooc. )#drugs tw #alocohol tw #depression tw #< - both are labeled within the post if you wanna skip past their mentions!#pls don't let him flop #i'll rb this tomorrow since this is a really weird time to post!#this is so embarrassing omg

okay so--- wow, first things first i never expected to get so many followers? i’m really shoken and i’m honestly just super happy i have so many of you out here still following my dumb ass like... seriously, thank you all SO MUCH for putting up with my bs and supporting my portrayal of nigel. i’ve never actually done a milestone thing on this blog, but 500 was too big of one to pass up.

BECAUSE this is such a huge milestone, i’m gonna be doing a little but of a giveaway. how to enter? like and reblog this post! it’s that simple. each like / reblog counts for one entry, doing both is two. though, i won’t count multiple reblogs just cuz i dont want people spamming the dash. what’s the PRIZE you might ask? well, five lucky people will get an edit of the muse of their choice. what’s the edit? that’s a surprise, whoopsie! but it’ll be great, i promise. DEADLINE is on march 4th. okay, i’m gonna cut the post here and ramble about all my good buddies.

@guiltycharge / @gcninja / @pnkfghter : oh boy oh boy, alice i’ve known you for a good while and i have a secret to tell you. remember when you first had your yin blog and you were like “oh dang where my yang blog at?” and i was like “bitch i’ll be your yang oh boy”?? well, uh, i had NEVER watched yin yang yo at that point and i really just wanted to be friends with you so that day i binged the entire fucking series, and actually got genuine yang muse, and i’ve kept this from you for 84 years im sorry. nOW THAT THAT’S OFF MY CHEST--- you’re such a good friend and a talented person? i’m super happy to have known you for as long as i have. you write all your muses so beautifully and i absolutely lOVE talking with you and plotting shit. all those gknd angst threads we have? those are my lifeforce. ily so much never change <3 <3 <3

Follower Giveaway! Also random Musings!

Warning, random Kei rambling ahead.

So, when I first made a tumblr, it was mostly due to peer-pressure and people constantly asking why I didn’t have one for Kei. I’m really bad at this whole social media thing, most of my interaction is and always will be in-game and through rp. I was surprised to find out people are actually visiting this page, especially considering my strict policy on being very tight-lipped about Kei ooc. I’ll be stating to be more active, starting with a very personal story for her I’m posting tonight or tomorrow, but anyways, on the important stuff.

I want to start by reflecting on my entrance into the RP scene. Around...February of last year, a friend who had been a long time roleplayer convinced to to transfer to Balmung with them and give it a try. I had no experience in role-play or writing at all. Naturally, that friend stopped playing two days later, leaving me in the purgatory of knowing nothing or nobody. I did, what many people do when they don’t know where to go. I walked around Ul’dah.

Now, even today, if you walk around the city, you’ll see dozens of people standing about. (And we’re not talking about the thirsty ones put that aside for the sake of this story). There are so many people out there desperately looking for rp. I was knew, I didn’t know what to do, how to approach, or even what my character was like. But I wanted to learn. This, was how Kei’s concept started.

Many of you that know me, know how strict I am about not giving IC information oocly. I rarely even mention or talk about RP I or Kei has done. Things she’s done people she’s worked with. That all started from my initial creation of her. You see, I wanted to learn how to rp, what makes good rp, how the experiences can be meaningful and trigger an emotional response in the character. But for that, I needed to interact with other characters. And so, here I was, new to the server, looking for people, and I decided something.

I decided, that one of the core concepts for my character, would that she would be able to approach anyone, anywhere, every time. It’s that simple. Those of you who have interacted with Kei, know she’s very up front. She wants to profit from you, and she’s going to find out how. How she and you can work together for mutual benefit.

One of the first people I met on the server, was this guy who sat me down, and talked to me about the adventurers guild. For hours and hours and hours he explained the significance of what the guild does for Eorzea. I looked at the guild, at the variety of the leves they offered, and realized, that a character who acts as an ‘independent ‘levemate’ of sorts, could have justification for interacting with almost anyone.

The rest is history.

ON TO THE PRESENT.

When myself @pavpatla and @cmazing started Blue Sky Ventures, @bsventures. What we wanted most of all, was to create a stage for excellent characters to express themselves and develop. Good rp doesn’t take anything more than throwing characters into a room and seeing what happens. All you need is a hook to get you started. That’s what we made the levedesk for. I have many friends, acquaintances, who tell me how hungry for rp there are, but how hard it is to find. There’s some weird sort of...barrier to entry. When everyone is afraid to approach or start something, or know where to begin, you can see how that makes this sort of ‘self-fulfilling prophecy’. We wanted to make that hook, where even if we had focused, character driven storylines within the fc, the Vista could act like a Quicksand, a Drowning Wench, or a Carline Canopy, connecting people be it IC or through our OOC ls even if they weren’t in the FC.

SO SHAMELESS SELF-ADVERTISEMENT COME STOP BY OR TALK TO ME @pavpatla OR @cmazing

GIVEAWAY INFO

Now, for what most of you actually care about. In the spirit of what I wrote above, rather than giving away ‘something’, I’d figure I’d do the only thing I’m somewhat competent at. Being Kei. So, one follower, at the end of this week, will be approached and offered to be ‘Kei’d’. What does that mean? Basically, it means that, I’ll design a leve or event specific to your character. An Adventure of sorts to accomplish something that they want. It could be solo, with a group of friends, or inv along some of the BS crew. For example, say your character is some kind of artisan that requires some kind of rare material. We’ll arrange an escort mission so you can go fetch it. Decide you want to capture and tame a wild chocobo? We can do that. Want to explore an Amdapori, Sil’dihn, Nymian, Mhacian ruin? We can do that. Essentially, whatever drives your character, I’ll design an adenture around that for you and your friends.

If the person RNG has chosen isn’t interested, we’ll figure out something else and I’ll roll again UNTIL SOMEONE ACTUALLY DECIDES THEY WANT THIS.

Now, I’ve rambled for a while, but very quickly I wanted to give a shoutout to @pavpatla and @cmazing. Those two are the true backbone of this FC, and basically have the monumental task of working hard and keeping my eccentric ass in check. I couldn’t ask for better partners and friends, and you really should go stalk the fuck out of them ic and ooc. @pavpatla has posted some excellent work, but the truly beautiful things she does are all in game, so hunt her down. As for @cmazing Absolutely sensational writer and world-builder, and maybe if enough people pester him on tumblr he’ll start sharing his talents with the world more.

And of course, make sure to check out the rest of the BSventures crew at https://bsventures.tumblr.com/members Each and everyone of them is wonderful and deserves to have their work seen. I’d talk about you all in detail, but I’m gonna save that for...a thing -steeples -fingers-

Thanks for listening to my BS

-Kei

A Little About Myself...

I am not a refined and perfect writer. This is something I want to get out there right from the start. My grammar isn’t perfect, but I can string together a sentence you can understand. So please, there is no need to correct me on who vs. whom or anything like that. If you can’t handle that, just keep on steppin!

I am new to the tumblr RP world. This means sometimes I may not know the proper terminology for things. I’m also still learning how everything works here. So please, be patient with me! I’m learning!

I have been RPing on and off for about 11 years, but it has all been casual. It’s something I enjoy doing because I like the creative aspect of it, not because I’m a pro at it.

I am prone to typos because I am really excited about what I’m typing. Just…. uh… IDK… If for some reason my typo makes what I wrote hard to understand, just point it out to me!

Even though I’m not a pro, I really really enjoy RPing. I like the process of creating and trying to figure out plots. I don’t mind over-thinking details for plots or diving deep into a muse’s background.

I’m a pretty casual person. Most of the time, I’ll stay in character. Sometimes I will be a little more playful when it comes to inner dialogue and OOC things. Sometimes I’ll ramble on or my character will ramble on. Either way, it’s just something I do and I’m not sorry for it. So, yeah, if we are in the middle of a sex scene, I may give a penis a silly name. In OOC, I may make a lot of jokes and a lot of smiley faces. It’s just who I am. If you don’t like it, I am not the RPer for you.

I am a very friendly person. So, please, don’t hesitate to either IM me on the messenger or ask me anything. With that being said, unless we grow very close, I probably won’t be answering any personal questions of any kind. Things about me and my personal life MAY come out in OOC or as an update if I’m not around or something.

When it comes to details on canon plots (if I have any) or anything pertaining to locations (Boston, NYC, Cali, etc.), there are two things you need to know; 1) I will be honest when I don’t know something. You can either correct my information or just deal with the fact I probably typed some BS just to get through the scene 2) I’m really terrible at locations. I usually try to google a little about places, but typically I will probably keep things very vague. If this doesn’t make sense to you, you’ll know what I mean when we are in scenes together.

Do not mistake my friendliness for weakness. If I feel you are not respecting me and our plot, I will unfollow you, drop our thread and, if I have to, I will block you. I doubt it will come to this, but I can and will do it.

I enjoy and respect conversation. It doesn’t have to be all business. I don’t mind talking OOC from time to time. Also, if there if anything you want to talk about, regarding our muses/plots/etc., please don’t hesitate to do so!

Unfortunately, as must as I wish I was a cyborg, I am only human. I am new to the tumblr RPC, so chances are I will make a few mistakes. I’m not sure what everyone’s triggers are. I’m not sure what people are comfortable with yet. This will all be a learning experience for me, so all I ask for is a little patience.
