#and like yeah i could just go iconless.

[iinfortunii]

rules: code of conduct.

BEGIN.

Before we start, I would like you to have certain things in mind when approaching me ooc. I am very shy and quite awkward, which results in me not being much of a talker; however, I will always try my best to be friendly to whoever wants to approach. I dislike pet names so please do not use them with me unless we are very close. There will be times when I'm just exhausted, so my wording could sound rude/aggressive, to which I apologize in advance -I never mean to hurt people’s feelings. I also reserve the right to interact with WHOEVER I want, and pestering me about it will only get you blocked.

Updates will be made as required.

I. BASIC.

A. This blog is: Selective / Independent / Canon Divergent / NSFW / Mutuals only / Singleship / Mostly iconless / Multiverse / AU, Crossover, OC, and Multimuse friendly / Vaguely affiliated with the OP RP fandom.

B. I am a very slow rper for many reasons —school, family, my ever-fluctuating mood —and I would appreciate it if you refrained from pestering me for replies. In return I offer as much patience as necessary. Think of this blog as low activity please.

C. English is not my mother language so I apologize in advance for any mistakes made.

D. I track the tag #iinfortunii, although mentioning me works just as fine.

E. Constructive criticism is always welcome but anon hate will be immediately deleted. I have no problems if you disagree with my portrayal, but it doesn't give you the right to harass me.

F. Mun and muse are both over 18, so there are chances that heavy content will be present; however I won't be writing smut. I can roleplay anything before or after the act if requested, but the moment things get far too explicit, I'll do a fade-to-black. I ask of you to not lie about your age or else you’ll be blocked indefinitely.

G. This is a heavily headcanon-based blog, and changes are likely to be made as more information is revealed about him, though I reserve the right to adjust the new information according to my interpretation of Deuce or simply ignore it, which is why I’m canon divergent.

H. If you'd like to turn an ask into a thread, you can turn it into a new post, or reblog from me, as I won't be using the Tumblr asks anymore due to the problems that come with formatting and such.

I. Ask box is open for everyone ic or ooc, but you aren't allowed to turn it into a thread and nor I will reply to it if we’re not mutuals. Please don't push me, because I won't hesitate to block.

J. No godmoding —only a minor is allowed if it moves a thread forward —or metagaming, please. Don't kill Deuce either, unless plotted beforehand, and most importantly, don't hold your muse back.

K. Discord is available for mutuals upon request.

L. Just because I write something it does not mean I condone it. Please have this in mind and again, do not pester me about it. Any and all nsfw matters will be tagged accordingly. There will be triggering topics present, and you can know more about this on the section below.

M. DO NOT involve me in drama or call-out posts. I’m heavily against both things. On this note, you’ll never see me rebloging a call-out post. This culture is so damaging and toxic, and I firmly believe no one should play the role of the judge for the good of the community just because you had issues with someone or don’t agree with the things they roleplay. Talk things privately, be mature about it, hard-block the person and move on. I am also very aware that a lot of people have done things that can’t be excused, but I like to believe that people can change for the better. If you try to drag me into it, I'll hard block any and all people involved indefinitely.

II. TRIGGERS.

A. They will be tagged as trigger tw, trigger / and trigger cw.

B. I do my best to stay up to date with my mutuals triggers. Your comfort is way more important to me than you might think, so never be hesitant to approach me via IM, (anonymous) ask or stop following me.

C. Triggers that are likely to appear, although some more than others: violence || blood || death || drugs || abuse || knives || body image || medical equipment || suggestive content || etc

D. I have no triggers, so you are free to go wild with your content. I only ask you remember to tag your nsfw (both written and visual), please.

III. INTERACTIONS.

A. Deuce won't like everyone. He might/will make wrong assumptions about your character. He will insult and bite back. He won't always be nice to those he likes. He does many things that serve his interests. You, as the mun, have no reason to take it personal, because I'm won't follow someone I don't like; if you DO take it personal however, and decide to rouse drama, then I'll be hard-blocking you. Goes for me as well —I have no reason to get angry for any of the things noted above.

B. My bonds page displays the relationships that have been built over time, not necessarily through interaction alone but over plotting as well. Refer to it for more information.

C. Interactions with OCs related to canon characters will only take place as long as said OCs have a detailed about page. Personally, I'm not interested in the idea of an OC being blood-related to my portrayal, so I apologize in advance.

D. Formatting isn’t a big thing across my blogs, save for the small text. Please don’t mix either sup/sub with small text when writing with me, as I have eyesight problems. Don’t use colored text either.

E. Non-romantic pre-established relationships are allowed! Just make sure to talk it out with me first, yeah?

01. Spade / Whitebeard pirates (canon and original characters alike that i am MUTUALS with) will have a pre-established relationship as long as the other mun is comfortable with such idea, though that relationship will be limited to merely crewmates, unless discussed otherwise.

F. You don’t need to match my writing length as long as I’m given enough to work with. If something about my reply bothers or doesn’t work with you, let me know and I’ll re-work it.

G. I really enjoy plotting scenarios or talking out about the relationships my muse could have with other muses, so hit me up if you’ve got any ideas! I’ll try to do the same!

H. Mun does not equal muse, so don’t go assuming I’m a jerk simply because Deuce is an asshole from time to time. I’m set on the idea that I’ll give people the same treatment they give me —which is always nice and kind. Kudos to everyone for this ♡

I. I don’t use a threadtracker because I rely on my memory (terrible mistake, I know), but I try to draft people’s replies as soon as I see them. If by any reason it seems like I lost it, then please let me know / send me a link with it and I’ll be deeply grateful.

J. I don’t do nor reply to greetings starters for matters of my own comfort, so I ask of you to never expect a starter or a reply from them.

IV. SHIPPING.

A. Singleship, with the spot taken by daadzi, which means Deuce is no longer open for romantic relationships.

01. Under no circumstances, I will accept more romantic relationships once the spot is taken. That being said, I won’t discourage your muse from falling for / hitting on him, although I ask you to understand he will never respond with the same interest or will never react gently if he’s pushed too far.

02. If my shipping partner is comfortable enough, I'll interact with duplicates with the condition that the relationship is strictly platonic.

B. Constant interaction, mutual interest, and chemistry are a must for the sake of better communication (both ic and ooc, preferably).

C. Please do not approach me if you wish our characters to have either a: one night stand or friends with benefits type of relationships. It won’t work out due to the nature of Deuce’s personality, and for that I apologize.

E. My ship has its own tag so you're free to block it if you don't want to see it on your dashboard. In addition, I'll also tag those posts with only the ship name for this very purpose.

F. Please do not force ships on me.

V. CELEBRATIONS.

A. First off, I am absolutely terrible at keeping up with dates, and to be frank, I am not the biggest fan of celebrating, which is why I think it’s necessary to say I won’t be partaking in any holidays, not even Deuce’s birthday (not that he has one, to begin with). Obviously I will still reply to any gifts received, and will send out things in return —you know, common courtesy.

B. I won't be sending out birthday gifts every year, and I might write drabbles for people once in a blue moon; it doesn’t mean they will be done for the specific date though, so please be patient.

VI. REASONS TO NOT FOLLOW BACK / UNFOLLOW.

A. Too much drama / call-outs / vague posts / sexual content.

B. Content makes me uncomfortable.

C. You are a personal blog without a visible rp sideblog. Please make sure it's easy to find.

D. You do not have a proper tag system.

E. Your blog doesn’t have a rules and about pages.

F. You lack the manners to deal with people respectfully.

G. I have no interest / lost interest.

H. I'm constantly / only used as a meme archive.

I. Other reasons may apply. I will soft block so we can both cease following each other and avoid any potential awkward situations. I won’t make a fuss if you decide to unfollow so I expect the same courtesy.

VII. ABOUT BEATRICE.

She is not a real person. Her concept as Deuce’s (toxic) pseudolover is my creation and was somewhat inspired from the real life Beatrice Portinari. Do have in mind that Deuce doesn’t talk about her so your muse can’t simply approach him and ask about her unless they can go through his memories / read his mind / any capability alike or he speaks about her, though it won't take a genius to figure out that she's a product of his imagination.

You can read about her by clicking here -link to be added.

She serves as a lie to shield himself from the internalized homophobia he deals with up until meeting Ace.

NOTE: As stated previously, Mun =/= muse, but I too have been dealing with compulsory heterosexuality for far too long, so I'd like to apologize in advance for projecting a bit of that into my portrayal. I'll work so that this part makes sense with what we've been given from Ace's novel.

VIII. MISCELLANEOUS.

A. I will never force people to follow me, so if by any reason you have to unfollow/block me, please go ahead. Your comfort matters and have every right to do what you must to ensure your wellbeing. With that said, I will not tolerate and will immediately hard block if you try to police my content.

B. I do not follow back immediately, and it can take me from a few hours to several days to follow back. Do not take it personally if I choose not to.

C. If I follow it’s because I am interested in interacting. I only ask you to be patient because it might take me a while to gather the courage to send something to your inbox or talk to you.

D. I have. ZERO knowledge about medicine. Don’t expect me to go full force and try to be 100% accurate, because I won’t.

E. I practice reblog karma (send a meme to someone if I’m rebloging it from them). If you see something you’d like to reblog but have no intention in sending something yourself, then please reblog from the source.

IX. FINISH.

Thank you for taking the time to read this! As you might have noticed, there’s no password to send. Make sure to check the psa tag for any updates, or don’t hesitate to send an ask if there’s anything unclear! I do my best so as not to post too much OOC posts, but sometimes it just happens. If it's nothing important, then I'll erase it whenever I have the chance/remember.

| Honesty & occasional salt | @blue-eyes-set-free​ said:  Name any three things about the rpc that bother you.

「1. Poofers. (I know what you know what I mean, but for those that do not--) People who show up once in a blue mood “OWO I GOT SO MUCH MUSE LETS GO, Starter call! Shipping call! Memes galore! Love my muse!!” Then...silence for like a month and then they pop back up they drop all threads [sometimes they say they are, and sometimes they just do it without warning even if you had something elaborate planned out] and are all guilt trippy and like ‘:c no one wants to RP with meeeeee, no one cares about my muse’  Like. If you don’t communicate and guilt for attention, what do you think is gonna happen?

2. People who rush relationships (romantic, friendship, whatever) just to get to either the UWU cute domestic phase, smut, or angst. I get that not everyone here wants to do a slow build relationship and just wanna skip to the feels or smut but like? Be UP FRONT ABOUT IT and communicate with your partner! If you mainly RP for smut don’t say you ship based on chemistry! Because I like things to develop naturally. There’s nothing more awkward then forcing your muse to care/have romantic or other close feelings for someone that the bond hasn’t been built up enough for it to seem realistic. If other people wanna rush to smut or cute shippy thins that’s fine, but don’t push that on me. I’m here to tell a story together, not indulge fet/shes or give you quick angst or smoft feelings when the muses have barely interacted.

3. Why??? Is there such a focus on things that aren’t writing? Like yeah, I’d love it if I was artistically talented/good at Photoshop and edits, good at coding/HTML and shiz and could have some fancy page with little effort but? That really doesn’t matter in RP? So I dont, I have basic ass icons, a plain doc for my rules and etc. Because last I checked RP was supposed to be about writing, not how pixelated you can get your icons to look? People shouldn’t judge people off of that stuff? Honestly, I’ve tended to have better more engaging threads with iconless-mobile bound people then a lot of the blogs that are considered ‘high quality’ or ‘aesthetic’.」

[chaosbcrne]

Do you have any tips for people who want to start getting into RPing on tumblr and such? I see people decorating their tumblr pages, making icons, etc., so I wanted to know how I could start seeing as I'm pretty invested in the idea of doing so;

hello !! first off, hi, welcome, and good luck in advance haha

tumblr rp as a whole is a big pill to swallow, to be honest. i’ve been rping on tumblr for 6ish years and there’s still some of the etiquette i feel i havent got down to a t, so i might not be the best to ask, but i’ll do my best to give you a hand here.

first off, let me clear this up: decorations and icons are not a necessity. it can embellish your blog and experience, and help get people’s attention to a degree, but making it your focus will not play that big a part in your success - at least not here. despite what some people believe, the sonic rpc is very chill about iconless rp and basic themes/graphics (at least as far as my personal experience goes). i know some other rpcs are a lot more close-minded about it, but yeah, if you’re all style and no substance here, the attention you’ll get initially for having a good looking blog will not carry your experience for you.

a lot of people still put a lot of work into their themes, but you may notice a lot have also started putting their about/rules/pages in general on google docs, which requires no format whatsoever. its not a trend i plan to hop on personally, as i like having my pages on my blog, but google docs are definitely the popular option now, which proves you really dont need the fancy decorated pages to stand out.

i wont entirely spit on icons, because they can be very useful during threads. but they don’t need to be fancy !! and you certainly don’t need to have +100 of them. i knew someone in the fe rpc who would only use official art, aka they only had maybe 5-6 different expressions for their muses, and they could get around just fine with that. if you’re rping a canon character, you can get all you need from the comics for sure, and if you’re going the oc route, again, you only need maybe 5-10 to get all basic expressions (whether you’re drawing them or using a faceclaim). and that’s if you even choose to use icons. it’s a bit harder without, but i personally am fine writing w people who dont use them, and i know a number of people who feel the same.

the secret, in my opinion, really lies in a combination of content + getting involved. at the end of the day, the quality of your writing, the originality of your ideas, is what is going to keep people’s attention, and your efforts to getting involved and going towards others is what is going to grab it. it can be very difficult when you’re new, finding people you vibe with, especially if you go towards more established blogs who already have a lot going on - since those people are less likely to go out of their way to start new things. it can be a bit of hit and miss, and take a while before you feel like your commitment isn’t one-sided, so it’s best to go in with an open mindset.

but again, your content and will to get involved with others will help you a lot more than pretty pages and fancy icons. as for the subtleties of etiquette itself, it really depends on the community, but you can always ask questions about those ! a lot of people have anon on for a reason. i know myself and most of the people around me would be totally down to clear things up about what’s good rp manners and what isn’t, so don’t hesitate to ask more questions - so long as you’re nice about it.

the be honest meme.  // accepting

2. Are aesthetics important to you? If they are, why?

Ehhhhhh..... Kind of. It’s not so much of aesthetics (like i do not care if you do small font or not, or have icons. I will generally format to match you, or format to match my own.). Personally I prefer iconless threads to ones with huge pictures/gifs. Mostly I’m looking for style of writing which isn’t really an aesthetic thing, it’s more seeing if our writing is compatible. 

I HATE overly edited stuff - I once had a reply I had to ask someone to send me a screenshot of because all their “________” text was formatted outside of tumblr in a special font and just showed up as boxes and symbols at my end, which while it looked cool on their browser/blog, it did not translate well over to the dash or on reblogs.

9. What is your opinion on exclusivity? Do you practice it? Why / why not?

I don’t mind it. It’s all about comfort level really. Personally I don’t practice it  - tried it once with a rare crackpair ship (like super unlikely to ever be a pair considering they weren’t even in the same show), but then my partner went and redid all our plots/threads with another person who wrote the same muse as me. So that was kind of a turn off because it was uncomfortable, and to have someone redo not just one theme/plot/thread but like... thirty of them with their new partner and never respond to our threads which had 100s of notes of back and forth, yet still tell me they wanted to write/ship.... that was shit.

13. Have you ever thought about leaving rp? What caused it? What changed your mind?

Yeah a few times. Mostly I just kinda go... there’s a lot of other things I could be doing instead of writing. Figuring out that balance was important - at one point I put a lot of pressure on myself to answer all threads within like 48 hrs tops (HAH). 

Even now though, I still consider it here and there. I have blogs I’ve put on hiatus and check in now and again, and not a lot draws me back to them.

27. Do you follow people even if they don’t follow you back?

Really depends. If I thoroughly enjoy their writing/blog then yes. If it’s someone I’m hoping to write with and they don’t follow me back, then I eventually unfollow them. Same goes for people who follow me then unfollow me. I’ll unfollow back. Mainly because a) clearly they’re not interested in writing with this particular muse and b) with how often blogs are mutuals only these days, I’d just rather not accidentally “break” rules if I send a meme in or comment on stuff when they’re a mutuals only or private blog. 

[hisvanity]

hey so uh. in reply to this post. yes i agree that nationality isn’t the same thing as ethnicity, and yeah you could use that as an excuse, but you know what? i don’t buy it. as an east asian woman who almost never sees herself represented in fiction, i find it awfully convenient for aquaffensive to just go “oh i’m using a white woman as my fc since i can’t find a japanese fc that fits the way i envision misty.” like. no. first, it would be pretty racist of an excuse to go “well all these other characters in this poc country that i’m not playing are poc, but THIS character that I’M playing just happens to be white.” second, aquaffensive has already entertained the idea that misty IS at least part japanese and has shown willingness to consider a japanese faceclaim, so there is no excuse for her to not actually use one. if there’s truly nothing that fits what she envisions misty to be, she can go iconless or stick with an anime fc. so um, yeah, sorry but i still smell a great heaping dose of whitewashing. good night.

[unstoppablenadia]

arrowloosed replied to your post: ;; sometimes i’m like….i wanna change nadia’s fc...

if you don’t wanna change her fc you could always just go iconless for post endgame stuff

yeah i’ll probably just gonna wind up doing that ?? cause i’m lazy lmao 

[scarlxtbeauty-blog]

Rules

Following

I’m not too picky about who I follow, but just know I won’t follow you back if you’re a personal blog. Although, if you’re a sideblog connected to a personal account then I may reconsider. 

Also, I’m not familiar with every fandom, but I am open to following muses that aren’t affiliated with Fairy tail. Although, there are some fandoms I prefer staying away from. This would include, Killing Stalking, and MLP.

Shipping

This will be a multi-ship blog! I headcanon Erza as bi-sexual, so she leans towards men and women! Of course, my OTP is Jerza, but I also really, really love Erza x Lucy and Erza x Mirajane. I’m also a huge fan of Grayza too! I’ll happily ship with any muse that seems compatible with my muse, as long as they are of age. Erza is canonically 19 years old, (or 20 if you count the 1 year time skip) so I will NOT ship with underage muses. 

NSFW may or may not happen, I’m not sure... Maybe if I feel comfortable with it, but I always feel really anxious about doing NSFW threads since I’m never sure if I’ll do it right. On that note, I’ll probably feel more comfortable doing it with other female muses 

Even if we’re not shipping or we are, I’m okay with suggestive things/partly nsfw things that could lead to sex, just know that if Erza doesn’t like your muse, expect a very negative reaction since she’s short-tempered, and takes shit from no one.

Also, small reminder, every ship will be in a different universe as to avoid ‘cheating’, unless we are writing a thread based on that.

Plotting/Interactions

I will interact with anyone that’s a MUTUAL. Please keep that in mind! If I have not followed you, it means I’m not interested, simple as that.

It’s very likely that I’ll be open to AU’s! I plan on making a plentiful of different verses, so if you ever want to plot a thread and use one of those verses, just let me know! Or we can make our own verse, your choice. I’m open to almost every kind of idea. I don’t have a lot of triggers, so I’m open to doing dark themed threads, as long as there’s no pedophilia involved. I do not condone that, and if I see it on my dash, I will most likely unfollow or block you.

Also, if I ever post a starter call, all mutuals are welcomed to like it. I have no issue with that :)

Oh yeah, I’m also okay with iconless threads.

Asks/IM’s

Again, all mutuals are welcomed to send in an ask if I reblog a meme. I usually always answer them. And if you want to turn the ask into a thread, you don’t need to ask, just make a new post for it! Or if you prefer I do it, then that’s also fine, just let me know.

if you ever wanna plan something out via IM’s, then feel free. Or if you just wanna talk, that’s also okay, just umm... know I have some social anxiety, so I’m  bit.. awkward with new people.

Reply Speed

Listen, I have a lot of health problems. So, there will be days when I won’t be able to come online. But if you feel I’ve taken too long, just give me a small reminder. Please don’t constantly pester me though, it won’t make me go any faster.

I also have two other blogs that I use as well, if you want to keep in contact with me, then you can reach me on those blogs or my personal blog
