THE POSITIVE & NEGATIVE; Mun & Muse - Meme.
fill out & repost ♥ This meme definitely favors canons more, but I hope OC’s still can make it somehow work with their own lore, and lil’ fandom of friends & mutuals. Multi-Muses pick the muse you are the most invested in atm. tagged by: @breselin, & @citialiin; thank you for the tag! I was planning on stealing it. tagging: @rosiqe, @noirtux, @goldgliitters, @ndeavor,  @reminiscentsky, @battleshell, @ettards & whoever else wants to do this. Just steal it & tag me. -- go wild.
My muse is:   canon / oc / au / canon-divergent / fandomless / complicated [loosely affiliated mainly due to the fandom’s size. I am quite open to crossovers of any kind, really even if it takes me a while to open up.]
Is your character popular in the fandom? YES / NO. [she is one of the deuteragonists; has been around since the pilot & while she has been sidelined during the epilogue, she was usually at least around with her story arc / actions having a huge impact on the overall story as such.]
Is your character considered hot™ in the fandom?  YES / NO / IDK. [I guess so? Then again, that’s an objective statement so I am just? Assuming? I personally find her general aesthetics to be quite amazing; she is a dance battler, graceful & elegant; a ballerina with a classical theme that runs through her design & attitude like a red threat. I have a weak spot for stuff like that.]
Is your character considered strong in the fandom?  YES / NO / IDK. [surprisingly, Pearl is considered to be the strongest non-fusion Crystal Gem according to the show (until Lapis Lazuli comes around). -- I assume prowess wise Pearl is high up next to Garnet & Rose whenever she can actually get her crap together due to having fought countless battles &, most importantly, survived the war in which she fought & shattered opponents thrice her size.]
Are they underrated?  YES / NO / IDK. [partially yes, partially no. She is controversial for sure but just as popular. At some point, the show delved deeper into her issues & actually had her mess up quite severely; the fandom’s reaction was so harsh that the showrunners had to interfere by “apologizing for making her human”. Pearl has always been a target for extreme criticism; some of it justified, some just straight down ridiculous.  -- It’s easy to forget what kind of complexity a character can offer when her resolution arc happens literally ten episodes before the show ends.]
Were they relevant for the main story?  YES / NO.
Were they relevant for the main character?  YES / NO / THEY’RE THE PROTAG. [Pearl becomes Steven’s guardian / mentor after the death of his mother Rose Quartz & can later be considered his stand-in mother alongside Garnet. It is safe to say that her actions have influenced Steven the most, both negatively & positively.]
Are they widely known in their world?  YES / NO. [she earned herself the title ‘The Renegade’ during the war for being the first (& arguably only) pearl that broke out of her conditioning; she used to be a wanted criminal / traitor to her own kind for 5000 + years until her record was cleared upon the beginning of Era 3 (aka official end of the Gem War). She is still being referred to as ‘The Renegade’ now & then; while she used to be proud of the title she has grown to resent it a lot these days.]
How’s their reputation?  GOOD / BAD / NEUTRAL. [it depends on who you ask; Homeworld Soldiers? Well, they despise her; she is a defective Gem & a war criminal. She stands for all that is wrong with the rebellion; I mean a pearl who refuses to serve & calls herself an individual? a warrior? THE SCANDAL!! Some soldiers are afraid of her, call her ‘Rose Quartz’ terrifying renegade’, even. However, in her ranks aka the rebellion, she is being seen as a silent heroine. A celebrated war hero, Rose Quartz’s right hand & sole confidante (some even whisper that there is more between them).]
How strictly do you follow canon?  — uh... well. Not really but... kinda? Steven Universe’s canon is messy & occasionally QUITE inconsistent. -- while it gives you vague details, some lore can best be compared to a gaping void. Thus my reason for partial divergence isn’t lack of good character writing (because Pearl is very, very complex even on screen), but rather inconvenient lore holes & SU’s habit of leaving important facts uncommented, “unshown” or just stuck between the lines. While I don’t mind deep analysis, some of those “buried facts” fly other people’s heads which leads to terrible, terrible fanon takes. -- in order to distance myself from that, I usually take canon & expand it with my own headcanons & metas based on lore / show analysis. I often alter / cut what does not fit my narrative BUT I always root my stuff in actual canon occurrences.
     Sometimes, I just straight down change certain things that canon messed up in my pov. For example, in order to make it explicitly clear that she fell in love & rebelled on her own volition (even if it has been confirmed like ten times by now), my Pearl is around 1500 years older than the original & (in)directly served White Diamond before being handed to Pink (not the only reason for that change but well I will elude on it eventually). She was a default pearl with no customization & usually spent most of her time with organizing matters in the palace until Pink accidentally broke her customized pearl; Pearl was then 'poofed’ & handed over; she possessed a more sensible personality & a strict rule protocol that was supposed to help her “raise” Pink Diamond into the ranks of a ruler. Most other changes are rather minor but very important or essential to my portrayal (for example whenever “A Single Pale Rose” is concerned: Pearl suggesting the “sealing of the secret”, her not wearing the dress from the beginning, her not calling Pink “my diamond”, her arguing with Pink long before the fake-shattering took place, etc etc.); the epilogue series is another can of worms I will get to eventually but lemme just say I didn’t really like the way Pearl behaved / the plot-bound ooc-ness she sometimes yielded to & other stuff. 
SELL YOUR MUSE! Aka try to list everything, which makes your muse interesting in your opinion to make them spicy for your mutuals.  —  well, she is a lesbian space rock from a strange universe; whose body is basically a manifestation of light? She is probably the most passionate being you will ever meet. -- if you are looking for a speedrun through human history, she is your gal. If you need someone to beat up some bullies, she will gladly come & smack sense into people; if you want to learn everything about Gemkind, sit down & listen because she won’t stop talking any time soon. 
     By definition, Pearl is a good person; the extreme loyal kind, absolutely & helplessly dedicated to a cause. She wears most of her emotions on her sleeve, comes off as genuinely caring, protective & trustworthy. She is empathetic & observant, she will always be there for you in one way or another. She is smart, loves to read & indulges in the higher arts such as (romantic) poetry, singing, painting, music (violin, piano, bass) & dance (predominately classic ballet / waltz but she has grown rather fond of jazz lately). Her knowledge about Earth & all that lays beyond is vast & if you ever want to see whatever is out there, she is the type to take you on a space tour with no questions asked. She fences, has learned to wield a lance, can engineer very well, has a very peculiar but... sorta adorable kind of humour that can either be hella obnoxious or super funny. There is no in-between. Pearl loves science, baking, housekeeping, ice-& roller-skating & is more than willing to take people along whenever she visits the rink. If you ask her for advice, she will gladly give it; if you need help, she will be the first to raise her hand. Pearl is orderly, has a strong sense of justice & a fierce, dedicated kind of resolve. 
Now the OPPOSITE, list everything why your muse could not be so interesting (even if you may not agree, what does the fandom perhaps think?).  —  Pearl. Is. A. Mess. No questions asked. She is an introverted, nervous, neurotic, grief-- & trauma riddled mess who loves to pretend & rationalize things to death. Her self-esteem is abysmal, she is extremely jealous, obsessive & possessive [to the point where she straight up murdered men just because they dared to be around her girlfriend]. Her mind is a compartmentalized mess of repressed memories & heavy, untreated cptsd woven into it; Pearl lives too much inside her head & gets overwhelmed by her emotions far too easily; she feels too much all at once & lets her temper get the best of her. 
     She is self-centred, does not seem to understand that words & reckless actions hurt people, believes that only she deserves to grieve Rose & willingly destroyed relationships just to soak in her own misery; self-destruction is her forte & she will indulge in it no matter the consequences. She is often high-strung, judgemental, always has to be right, overachieves & overdoes whenever a chance is given. -- she can be petty, arrogant & desperate for validation. --  Needless to say, Pearl is the kind of person that pretends to be fine for years but once she cracks she reveals that she is anything but. -- she cannot move on, hates men, & just is a lot to deal with. Getting in touch with her means you run the risk to get dragged into her mess, whenever you want it or not. 
What inspired you to rp your muse?  —  first & foremost, my love for complex, purpose-driven female characters. I am a sucker for the “introvert, plagued lady” type & once parts of Pearl’s past were revealed during Season 1 I was sold. Pearl seemed relatable to me, extremely human & raw in her behaviour. While I love most of the SU cast equally, Pearl just wouldn’t let me go. Her aesthetic is amazing, her past intriguing. -- her connection to ballet & classical music, her elegant & graceful design just spoke to me. 
What keeps your inspiration going?  —  music. music. oh, and music. Poetry, long walks (I am not kidding), analysis, meta & hc writing, discussions with writing partners or my rl partner @rosiqe.
Some more personal questions for the mun.
Give your mutuals some insight about the way you are in some matters, which could lead them to get more comfortable with you or perhaps not.
Do you think you give your character justice?  YES / NO / I SINCERELY HOPE I DO? [ despite my emo peculiar take on the character, I do hope that people hear her voice whenever they read my replies. ]
Do you frequently write headcanons?  YES / NO / SORT OF? [ I wish I could post more but I am very, very slow & a perfectionist at heart. -- I try to compensate for my lack of actual hcs by rambling in my tags. Most part of the time said ramblings include personal headcanons or analyses of specific scenes that include personal takes on pivotal situations; while I gather & write them down eventually, it can take me a long time to get stuff done. -- it is easier for me to jus blabber on & on in the tags. ]
Do you sometimes write drabbles?  YES / NO [ all my ask replies are drabbles, ngl. ]
Do you think a lot about your Muse during the day? YES / NO
Are you confident in your portrayal?   YES / NO / SORT OF? [... a sore topic. While I love my headcanons & have gotten quite proud of my writing over time, I constantly doubt myself regarding the “ic”-ness of my responses. I like to believe that I am doing rather well, but I am not confident, no. ]
Are you confident in your writing?  YES / NO. [ it took me a long time to develop my style; while I always struggle to believe in my portrayal I am quite confident in my writing as such. I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea but in general? I am proud of it. ]
Are you a sensitive person?  YES / NO. / SORTA.
Do you accept criticism well about your portrayal?  —  Well, yes. As long as it is the constructive kind. I love receiving feedback, may it be negative or positive. I will most likely try to discuss criticism with you; aka if you (i.e) tell me that Pearl shouldn’t have (C)PTSD, I will deliver canon proof & state my reasoning for my decision to implement it in my canon, etc. What I will not do is tolerate character hate or unreasonable hate towards my writing. Be assured that I will never headcanon something that has no solid footing in canon.
Do you like questions, which help you explore your character?  —  ABSOLUTELY. Send me random hc / meta asks, I beg you.
If someone disagrees to a headcanon of yours, do you want to know why?  —  sure. As stated above, I will probably discuss stuff with you. The chance of me dropping a headcanon however are rather low.
If someone disagrees with your portrayal, how would you take it?  —  Hm... it depends on what they don’t like. If it’s my writing, well, why are you following me to begin with?? If it is my take on things... well again, why are you following me? I stated in my rules what you should expect & that I will not water down specific aspects of a complex character. Disliking my portrayal is fine since I know that my kind of writing / analysis isn’t necessarily everyone’s tea but... again, why would you keep following me?
If someone really hates your character, how do you take it?  —  um. Not... well? While I will never excuse my muse’s actions, I dislike groundless bashing. In regard to Pearl... well. As stated above, I expected backlash the second I created this blog. Pearl is one of those characters the fandom either loves or hates; her canon relationship to Rose was branded toxic by a ton of people, people call her uncaring, salty, insane & straight up manic, she seemingly has no redeeming qualities, she is a bitch, too perfect (LOL) or arrogant & apparently has no character? I love it when people say stuff like that because... did we watch the same show? Is there a version of SU I don’t know? Please tell me, I wanna see it for myself! Some hot takes in this fandom are atrocious & make me want to commit a crime. 
     -- but I digress. I have spent too much time in her tag in 2014 + & I have seen quite the fights over the most ridiculous things; Pearl, in particular, got quite the flack for stuff that eventually got resolved in season 5 [which, again, was way too late but well]. In the end, clowns will be clowns, no matter what you do. I just don’t get why you would follow someone if you hate their character to begin with.
Are you okay with people pointing out your grammatical errors?  —  yes, but please don’t be rude about it. I am German, English is my second language. I am currently learning Swedish / improving my Swedish so mistakes can always happen. Additionally, I am someone who posts her replies in the middle of the night & while I proofread a lot & most likely fix posts after I posted ‘em, some mistakes can still slip through. 
Do you think you are easy going as a mun?   —  ... I like to believe I am but I know that I am overly passionate & I can come off as too strong or too fierce sometimes. I can be too much, I can be too excentric (I’m a Scorpio, Karen); I have strong opinions in regard to my characters & I will not hold them back. I criticise shows mercilessly & I will plough through canon as much as I please. Stans & I usually don’t get along. HOWEVER, I am a meme. I love lame jokes, I am awkward, & sometimes very, very insecure. In the end,  I just wanna talk about my favourite characters & develop sth wonderful. I keysmash unironically, I use old memes unironically. I mean I have been writing for ten + years & I am about to smooth sail post the 24 age border aka I will turn 25 soon which renders me old according to tumblr standards. I am just here to have fun before the staff comes to lock my account down due to my status as an rp-senior. -- yeah... that is the kind of stupid ass humor I mean. I digress but... please, I am an awkward, rambling mess, just hit me up via dms & you will see what I mean.

THE POSITIVE & NEGATIVE; Mun & Muse - Meme.
Tumblr media
fill out & repost ♥ This meme definitely favors canons more, but I hope OC’s still can make it somehow work with their own lore, and lil’ fandom of friends & mutuals. Multi-Muses pick the muse you are the most invested in atm.
My muse is:   canon / oc / au / canon-divergent / fandomless /
Is your character popular in the fandom?  YES / NO.
Is your character considered hot™ in the fandom?  YES / NO / IDK.
Is your character considered strong in the fandom?  YES / NO / IDK.
Are they underrated?  YES / NO.
Were they relevant for the main story?  YES / NO.
Were they relevant for the main character?  YES / NO / THEY’RE THE PROTAG.
Are they widely known in their world?  YES / NO.
How’s their reputation?  GOOD / BAD / NEUTRAL.
How strictly do you follow canon?  — Pretty strictly, I think? I mean... I do always try my best to stick to canon events because although I am a big fan of AUs, I absolutely suck at writing canon-divergent characters. I also look out for possible dialectisms that come from Hinamori & put some work towards Hinamori’s personal development; all of this according to whatever has happened to her in canon / is shown by her in canon.
SELL YOUR MUSE! Aka try to list everything, which makes your muse interesting in your opinion to make them spicy for your mutuals.  —  There’s an entire world waiting beyond Hinamori’s pretty face? She’s still pretty much just a baby when in comparison to many other Lieutenants (being the second youngest, right after lil Yachiru), which makes her super innocent and funny. She’s also very upbeat, easy-going, and friendly! She’s such a devoted Lieutenant and honestly a great worker? Super strong with her kido spells, too! A great student?! A very, very good girl, honestly! She’s the greatest person you will ever meet, I swear to GOD !!
Now the OPPOSITE, list everything why your muse could not be so interesting (even if you may not agree, what does the fandom perhaps think?).  —  Most of the people, from what I can perceive from reading different opinions and have read through my years in Bleach forums and such, is that she’s pretty mentally weak. Hinamori seems to be extremely unbalanced and the previously mentioned devotion actually becomes... a weakness? Although I don’t agree with it ( mostly because I do believe her devotion towards Aizen was induced and not... something natural ), I can understand what people mean by this. Also, she mostly uses magic spells and keeps herself at a certain distance when in combat;; which people might easily perceive as her being weak when it’s just... her fighting style and body stature.
What inspired you to rp your muse?  —  I have roleplayed Hinamori for over 6 years now? almost 7, actually. I made this blog in 2014, however, I was supposed to be writing Hitsugaya. I ended up changing my entire blog’s aesthetics, not even a week later, to match Hinamori and decided to try her out. Why? Well... long story short... the fandom was full of Hitsugaya blogs. asjhdfasjdhfg I didn’t want simply be just one more in the ocean of amazing Hitsugaya writers;; so I decided to write someone who gave me access to heavy development ( because there was so little content back then ) and fun times ! lil peach was the obvious answer!
What keeps your inspiration going?  —  Most of the time its music? Whenever I decide to focus on an rp blog, I create a go-to playlist that helps me channel the muse’s traits and helps me write with more ease! That... and re-reading manga pages that might make me come up with headcanons, which I, later, always tend to apply to threads. Oh yeah, uh... LMAO! How could I forget? Talking to friends and discussing things with them, also often lets my creativity soar and helps me channel my muse’s persona. uwu
Tumblr media
Some more personal questions for the mun.
Give your mutuals some insight about the way you are in some matters, which could lead them to get more comfortable with you or perhaps not.
Do you think you give your character justice?  YES / NO.
Do you frequently write headcanons?  YES / NO. 
Do you sometimes write drabbles?  YES / NO. 
Do you think a lot about your Muse during the day?  YES / NO.
Are you confident in your portrayal?   YES / NO.
Are you confident in your writing?  YES / NO.
Are you a sensitive person?  YES / NO.
Do you accept criticism well about your portrayal?  —  Honestly, yes? I am a person that needs to receive constant criticism & is very open about it, too. I often find myself asking for criticism & find myself craving for bigger improvement.
Do you like questions, which help you explore your character?  —  HELLS TO THE YES !! But then again... who doesn’t? It makes me so so happy whenever I receive a question or a simple message that might help me develop Hinamori’s character traits or behaviours? I love my girl so much;; knowing that others want me to gush about her amazingness & make her grow even more is nothing but an honour to me, tbh.
If someone disagrees to a headcanon of yours, do you want to know why?  —  Well... yeah? But not in a bad way, of course! I absolutely love discussing headcanons and getting different points of view from things ( such as headcanons, in this specific topic ) so I can center myself and find a clearer way to analyze things! Discussing headcanons is dope, man!
If someone disagrees with your portrayal, how would you take it?  —  This is going to be a pretty short response cause ;; I don’t care? I’m not here to really... please others. I’m here to have fun for my own self and to enjoy writing with other amazing fellas. Ain’t nobody gonna rain on my parade with unnecessary negativity;;
If someone really hates your character, how do you take it?  —  I haven’t ever seen many people hate Hinamori’s character? However, I do have seen quite the few people disregard her as the important character she is, or reduce her to a level that doesn’t... entirely fit the reason why she was created. Still, it’s none of my business. I don’t let it get to me or feel... the need to do anything about it? Or even talk about it? I can’t really change people’s views, so I often would just rather love my baby peach and let others do as they please.
Are you okay with people pointing out your grammatical errors?  —  ABSOLUTELY? It’s even part of my rules like ;; please tell me if you ever find a grammatical error ANYWHERE in my blog. English isn’t my mother tongue and thus it can be very difficult for me to keep up with fancy writing while also sticking to correct grammar? idk if this makes sense but... yknow.
Do you think you are easy going as a mun?   —  I do think I am very easy going kind of fella? Sometimes it takes me forever go get to messages ( both through discord & IMS ), but I think that’s because lately I’ve been feeling super emotionally drained ;; I haven’t been out of my goddamn house for three months and I sincerely miss seeing faces that aren’t my parents. I did take a drive the other day but... sobs... it left such a bittersweet taste. ANYWAY !! Yes. I’m very easy going and talkative. Also a big, big enthusiastic? And positivist! I am someone who always prefers to stick to the bright side of life and ignore anything that might be the least problematic so yeah ~ I am uwu. Come meet me. I’m cool. I swear.
That’s about it, congrats for filling out!

THE POSITIVE & NEGATIVE: MUN & MUSE
Fill out & Repost ♥ This meme definitely favors Canons more, but I hope OC’s still can make it somehow work with their own lore and Lil’ fandom of friends & mutuals. Multimuses pick the muse you are the most invested in atm.
Tagged by: @polyhexianchicken​
Tagging: Whoever wants to
MY MUSE IS.   canon / oc / au / canon-divergent / fandomless
* is your character popular in the fandom? YES/NO (no fucking clue? It’s a bunch of OCs)
* is your character considered hot™ in the fandom?  WELL… / NO / IDK. (I mean, I think they’re hot.)
* is your character considered strong in the fandom?  YES / NO / IDK. (like I purposefully built in a ton of flaws so they wouldn’t seem too powerful but like...one of them is a prime so...)
* are they underrated?  YES / NO.
* were they relevant to the main story?  YES  / NO (though that’s not true for their au)
* were they relevant to the main character?  YES  / NO (again in their own universe that’s a bit different)
* are they widely known in their world?  YES / NO.
* how’s their reputation?  GOOD / BAD / NEUTRAL.
HOW STRICTLY DO YOU FOLLOW CANON?
Considering I went and made my OWN canon (with blackjack and hookers!) probably not very closely at all, though I try to follow the canon of whoever I’m playing with.
SELL YOUR MUSE! (aka try to list everything, which makes your muse interesting in your opinion to make them spicy for your mutual.)
Honestly I think it’s my characters’ flaws that make them interesting and entertaining. Redstrike is fragile, impulsive, and has anger issues and he can be vague which makes him come off as more sinister than he really is. Spyder is basically a golden retriever as a person ready to roll over and play nice even though he’s been hurt so much. Batgotti can come off as cold or too distant because he’s so formal when really he’s very gentle and kind. And Codeblue is just...well... he’s a clown and a professed coward who’s honestly so brave and so stubbornly set on his own moral ideals that he refuses to break or bend.  Web and Weaver are the worst little teenage gremlins you could ever encounter, which somehow just makes them cuter to me? And Scalpel can be standoffish and blunt despite how caring she is and how dedicated she is to her job. They’re my OCs and I love all of them, I want to watch them go off and interact with others so badly. I can feel their wants and desires as my own and ache to see them realized and I think that makes them dynamic characters to play with.
NOW THE OPPOSITE! (list everything why your muse could not be so interesting (even if you may not agree, what does the fandom perhaps think?)
Gonna be honest if you have issues with swearing or more adult subject matter like sex or theology these probably aren’t the muses for you. They purposefully like pushing buttons and they’re unapologetic about their openness concerning topics that might make others squeamish. I can understand not being interested in sex or even being uncomfortable with certain subjects and if you are you should definitely bring those up with me...but they won’t make me change my muses. They are who they are. 
WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO RP YOUR MUSE?
Honestly? Probably my roommate. He’s been working for a good 13-14 years to get me back into Transformers and when it finally happened I went deep into it. We fed off of each other’s love for the franchise and bounced ideas off of one another until I’d started creating this entire au and characters to fit into it. The rest of it? Well I’ve always loved snakes and I started with Beastwars but the concept of the The Thirteen Primes really connected with me so I sort of went about blending those concepts together until I had Redstrike. Spyder and Batgotti came later by suggestion of my roommate (who somehow convinced me to use Kamen Rider villains as a theme for my bois the bastard). Eventually they developed personalities and quirks all their own as I designed them. Codeblue was a bit more of a lark. We had this Optimus Prime rubix cube and we were playing around with it one day when we kinda laughingly remarked that if we turned his helm around and plopped it on Ratchet’s body it’d make for an interesting mech and...well...that and a lot of M.A.S.H. led to Codeblue, my favorite opinionated medic.  Web, Weaver, and Scalpel mostly came along due to Discord rps? But I still love them.
WHAT KEEPS YOUR INSPIRATION
The driving need to have people love my OCs as much as I love them. Plus this dumb au and these shitty bastards who I love won’t stop bugging me with interesting ideas and stuff all the time. 
SOME MORE PERSONAL QUESTIONS FOR THE MUN.
* do you think you give your character justice?  YES / NO. 
* do you frequently write headcanons?  YES / NO.
* do you sometimes write drabbles? YES / NO.  
* do you think a lot about your muse during the day? YES (All the damn time. Most songs now I’ll daydream scenarios with them) / NO.
* are you confident in your portrayal?   YES / NO. 
* are you confident in your writing?  YES / NO. 
* are you a sensitive person?  YES / NO. (I’m forever zen about stuff for real)
DO YOU ACCEPT CRITICISM WELL ABOUT YOUR PORTRAYAL?
Yes...if it’s constructive. Though at the end of the day they are my own original characters so ....for the most part I know them best and if I decide to alter them that’s my decision to make.
DO YOU LIKE QUESTIONS, WHICH HELP YOU EXPLORE YOUR CHARACTER?  
Fuck yes! I wish I got more of them. I love angst, I love writing out information and fun facts about my muses. I love diving deep into what makes them tick and I love intriguing dilemmas for them to explore. Give me MOAR.
IF SOMEONE DISAGREES TO A HEADCANON OF YOURS, DO YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY?  
Honestly, yes I would like to know why. Though really it’s not come up much because of the whole ‘these are mechs from my own au’ thing. Which, I swear I’ll post more on that soon.
IF SOMEONE REALLY HATES YOUR CHARACTER, HOW DO YOU TAKE IT?
They’re allowed to hate my characters. That’s perfectly fine. I am also perfectly in my right not to interact with those people too. Honestly it’s like ‘cool your entitled to your opinion’. That’s it. Like I’m not gonna get mad about it unless it’s completely arbitrary or you’re coming after me as the mun for my own personal beliefs and taking it out on my muses for whatever reason. If that’s the case. Fuck you there’s the door. 
DO YOU THINK YOU ARE EASY GOING AS A MUN?  
Definitely. I’m really pretty laid back about just about everything. I’m willing to talk and communicate if you need to and I pretty much just go with the flow. I’m not gonna get mad if we have different ideas about a certain thing or if our headcanons don’t exactly mesh. I’m pretty hard to rile up and honestly I’m just on here to have fun so I wanna make sure that my rp partners are having fun too.  Seriously just talk to me about something I’d hate for there to be issues that come up later down the line because I did something that made you uncomfortable and you never told me. I can’t read minds so it’s really great when I can have an rp partner come and talk to me about what we’re doing and what they like and don’t like, what they’re okay with and not okay with. I want to talk issues out and even if I seem excited about something if YOU’RE not excited about that thing too I’ll be just as happy to not do the thing because my rp partners being happy and comfortable is much more important to me than like a plot line I think might be fun.  Seriously I’m the chillest of peeps and I’m always open to talk, feel free to do so whenever.

Is your character popular in the fandom?  YES / NO.
Is your character considered hot™ in the fandom?  YES / NO / IDK.
Is your character considered strong in the fandom?  YES / NO / IDK.

Were they relevant for the main character?  YES / NO / THEY’RE THE PROTAG.
Are they widely known in their world?  YES / NO.
How’s their reputation?  GOOD / BAD / NEUTRAL.
How strictly do you follow canon?  — Since she is an OC with her own lore I would say pretty much . Of course there are some heres and theres and she changed a lot from the first time I dragged her out of the void of my head . I originally wanted to make more of a gag character but ended up taking too much of the screen if I’m honest . but of course , since there is many other lores and crossovers are a must , some things change once or twice .
SELL YOUR MUSE! Aka try to list everything, which makes your muse interesting in your opinion to make them spicy for your mutuals.  —  Nora is a mentor character , supportive and most likely to be the ace under the sleeve like a Kisuke Urahara from Bleach or Sinbad from Magi --- you know there’s something fishy but there is a charm that even thought they are slidding in the background for the main character , their relevance is vast . As a mentor characters , she would often help with insight , understanding of complex things , giving moral lessons and giving others a sense of security whilst also making sure to throw hints about a doubious nature . Keeping a character around her to keep their feet on ground while never shooting down their hopes and dreams .
Now the OPPOSITE, list everything why your muse could not be so interesting (even if you may not agree, what does the fandom perhaps think?).  —  She is not approachable unless you have enough guts to -- perhaps even looks intimidating or hard to come up with something plausible to make the meeting more natural . And honestly , she looks like a mainstream angst character at first glance --- even I myself believe this and start having second thoughts ... :laughs:  
What inspired you to rp your muse?  —  An old project I had archived in my closet of memories (?). She was the main , nameless character of a journal about , well , her and the emotions she had to deal with in the everyday . I will be seriously honest ... it was a self insert :blushes: after all it was like a personal journal I was doing on my darkest days . But after that , she became Sable -- the first character on her own -- who also served as a mentor ( but the story was much more dark , seriously ) and then just came to this . I even used the pre-prototype name lol . The idea was to put the whole story into a RPG pixel game or a short comic series where she ( Sable ) and the protagonist would wander around a city called “Nobody’s Home” , a place were people with “thats” ( what now are called Stalkers ) got dragged into and either confront their emotions and solve / comes in terms with them or get eaten by them ( a metaphor for suicide or dead by mental illness ) . The story was more or less about Sable teaching Nona ( the genderless protagonist ) about different mental states , issues and others and helping people solve them so they can return to the real world . Needless to say , the story ends with Nona returning after coming in terms with their condition ( funnily enough , the protagonist had a bunny shaped emotion ) while on the other hand Sable stayed behind along with her closest friend , who she question why he keeps being around if he could return himself , to what he replies he doesn’t want to leave her alone esp since she can no longer return --- hinting Sable committed suicide but by sheer will power remained there to help others to deal with what she couldn’t . Voez , the friend I mention , is even Victor from her current lore . Haha , I like recycling I guess . When I came with Nora , it was mostly to kill time and altered her base story a bit since the original plot was way to close up to make an interaction .
What keeps your inspiration going?  —  How well received she became , I know it sounds a bit ... uh , bad . But I honestly never expected people to like her . heck I even have my doubts about myself liking her haha . plus I know it’s not easy to deal with a character with a somewhat meta power ... I still struggle from time to time but I’m managing and having the support I have atm is something that keeps me going . I love plot a shit lot . I love to come up with ideas with others . To expand what I already have . besides , there is so much I haven’t write down yet that is about her lore but I’m a bit insecure yet . I guess I’m too used to forums where everyon follows a general plot haha ... old habits die hard .
Some more personal questions for the mun.
Give your mutuals some insight about the way you are in some matters, which could lead them to get more comfortable with you or perhaps not.
Do you think you give your character justice?  YES / NO / EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Do you frequently write headcanons?  YES / NO / 50-50
Do you sometimes write drabbles?  YES / NO, I HATE DRABBLES.
Do you think a lot about your Muse during the day?  YES/ NO.
Are you confident in your portrayal?   YES / NO / .... UHHHH
Are you confident in your writing?  YES / HAHA NO.
Are you a sensitive person?  YES VERY MUCH A LOT / NO.
Do you accept criticism well about your portrayal?  —  I haven’t got any so far --- which honestly surprises me because well ... there is so much that can bother people . as I said , I received a lot of support and praise , which also surprises me haha ... I won’t deny I would love to hear what people think , even if I later end up riding the anxiety train to the moon but it’s also a way to grow up , I believe . god ... I sound like nora Uu
Do you like questions, which help you explore your character?  —  I absolute love this and need this . It comes easier for me to make a 20 word pages of information about stuff if I’m asking specifically about it . even add explanatory drawings with it lolol since I’m kinda bad with words . besides , showing me interest on a character would just fire the heck out of me to keep going . I mean , everyone likes to get some curiosity and a chance to develop more their characters , canon or not .
If someone disagrees to a headcanon of yours, do you want to know why?  —  I would for sure . I’m not smart and I actually do a shit ton of research --- but even so I can miss a lot of shit people would say <nah that’s not how it works> and that would be helpful as heckie . but of course , needing the why also would tell me if the person disagreeing is doing it with a solid ground or just because they are being a piece of crap . I’m really tired of tumblr mentality and shitty people who aren’t mature enough to act decently .
If someone disagrees with your portrayal, how would you take it?  —  you cannot like everyone or have everyone like you either . I don’t really care much ... esp since nora is an original character . if it constructive critisism , okay -- I will take it , but gimme a solid reason other than “ your character is / is not ... “ and then give a crappy critique because she doesn’t fit your agenda or standards .
If someone really hates your character, how do you take it?  —  you are fucking free to unfollow me and ignore me for the rest of your life . I really don’t get the point of hating on the internet just because and keep promoting your hate just to be a pain in the ass .
Are you okay with people pointing out your grammatical errors?  —  I fucking wrote in my rules that people are even fricking free to fix my grammar and english because holy heck , even to this day I still do some ugly shit . I’m dumb , help ...
Do you think you are easy going as a mun?   —  ehhhhhhhhhhhhh, kinda . I take everything with water . whenever it’s of ideology , people as it is , characters ... I am quite tolerant and try to keep the “okay this person thinks this way , fine .” but as long as nobody crosses the line where they try to spoil it for me or others , I get super bitter . I love OOC , getting to know the one behind the character makes me feel more secure about coming to them and just rambling about plots and hcs and whatever idea got in my mind . but if I see someone and , forgive me god for misjudging , see them as a person that will put me on my nerves -- I won’t even try . as for the friends I have and those who don’t know me as much ... I am obnoxiously sporadic and have a lot of ups and downs very often . one day I could be talking 100 words per second others I will just take a fucking week to respond . honestly , I had mined my social skills for two years plus several other irl stuff previous to that , so I’m always a bit too anxious around people , esp people I REALLY like . I’m insecure as heck , if someone is vague ( just because , idk , it was a lazy day for them ) I think at least 10 different reason why probably that person hates me now . I’m a bit dumb 26 year old baby .......... but I’m very aware that is completely on me . I’m a mess.......  so , what was the question again ??? ... I , yeah ... it’s a kinda . but I try , at least haha.
That’s about it, congrats for filling out!

So, yes, this happened! I still don’t have the proper ability to comprehend that I got to this milestone. I made Mary on a whim, assuming I’d probably not keep it going with her, despite my obvious love of her, thinking most people wouldn’t want to interact with her since she’s not exactly the definition of well loved in the fandom. But so many of you have made this such a wonderful experience for me on here, and made playing Mary so much fun. Thus, lets get on to the shoutouts!
THE GINGER NUT SQUAD (aka the CAH group of fuckery):
@hisjiminycricket
Serah, you are genuinely one of the sweetest, kindest and most loving people I can say I’ve had the fortune of getting to know. I swear, you don’t have a bad bone in your body and oh I admire you so much for that. I know I can always go to you with anything, big or small, or just someone to fangirl over Warstan about... You’re one of a kind. Thank you for putting up with me and my craziness. I know i’ve told you this a million times over but I absolutely bloody love you.
@mvcrofts
HAYDEN MY LIL FELLOW CATS DORK WHO I LOVE TO THE MOON AND BACK! I don’t think anyone else on here would go with a random idea about a ship I had out of no where and build it up the way you somehow do with me with Mycroft and Mary. You make me laugh to the point of tears, you make me smile like nothing else. I can’t put into words just how much I genuinely adore you. You’re a wonderful person inside and out, and I feel so lucky I get to be your friend.
@bakerstreetsconsultingsociopath
Aly! While you constantly drive me crazy saying Aussie slang THAT NO ONE HERE USES, I still love you so much. Your Sherlock is so quick witted, so much like in the show, which makes me so happy with the threads we do because I love getting to write Mary being a sassy little pain to Sherlock. Somedays I swear to god we have the exact same relationship as Mary and Sherlock but that makes things all the better. You portray him in such a brilliant way and no one else can take that from you <3.
@nctanthca
MIRANDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! The many extra A’s all in caps lock should be a proper indication of how much I’m actually obsessed with you, like lowkey though I think you’re so incredibly funny and charming and sassy ( just like Anthea) and I just... No words. Not only are you a talented writer, OOC, you’re so chill and easy to talk to. Plus, I love the little friendship Mary and Anthea have, just the two of them being total girls, drinking all of Mycroft’s whiskey and reminiscing on their younger years. I couldn’t imagine it all any other way.
@psychopatx
Jack, or should I say Jim because you sometimes actually terrify me with just how much you are like him. I don’t think you realise how well you portray him, how well you do him justice. Your love and passion for him, and his story, his personality, just everything about him is so lovely to watch as you grow and develop him in a way the writers could never do - which, Jim deserves. Also, your cosplay of him is fucking incredible, just so you know. 
@thenewsexy
Ali!! My Marene partner in crime! While our interactions on here are limited, I’ve gotten to know you pretty well OOC, and you are just so sweet, so adorable, so freaking cute I can’t use any other words to properly describe you. Not only are you actually stunning af, you’re so talented at writing Irene, you put your own spin on her in this perfect little way that just works so well. Never ever leave, okay? Because no one else would love on Mary & Irene in the way the two of us do ahaha!
@deadcentred
Sara! Or should I say, the actual living embodiment of Molly Hooper. I’m pretty sure the two of you were twins in another life. While the majority of our interactions have either been OOC, or briefly in memes we’ve sent one another, I love reading your threads, I love the voice you give to Molly, the one she certainly deserves to have because Molly Hooper deserves all the love in the world. We really need to write more IC, because much like Amanda - I need the Molly and Mary spinoff where the two of them lounge around, drinking wine, and just being total girls while the boys are off being boys.
THE BAKER STREET GANG (AKA THE LOVELY PEOPLE WHO SOME REASON TALK TO ME AND WRITE WITH ME CONSTANTLY DESPITE ME BEING TRASH):
@losingsiide
MAC! Aka, the biggest dork in the world who I just want to snuggle and protect away from the world and hug till I can’t hug no more but unfortunately I’m on the other side of the world so it makes it very very hard. There is very few people on here like Mac. He’s the fucking bees knees (yes bee reference was very important). Every conversation I have with him is never boring. He always manages to bring my mood up, make me laugh till I’m physically crying with tears, for some reason deals with my obsessive love of Mary (and encourages it), and joins in on my never ending thirst for Martin Freeman. To have a friend like him in this shitty world, I just feel really fucking lucky. If you haven’t got to know him the way I do, do it. Because not only is Mac a brilliant Sherlock, but he’s also a terrific friend.
@suumuxor
Allison! I’m pretty sure you could probably already guess what I’d say about you, but it don’t matter cause I’m gonna say it all, ka-peesh? If you haven’t checked out mother fucking Abigail Holmes (yes she’s Holmes not Stewart that was Mary typing okay don’t correct me correct her) is one of the best OC’s out there. Period. She’s so well thought out, well developed and fits in seamlessly into the framework of the show. Not many OC’s can do that which is a testament to just what an incredible writer she is. Also, hers and Mary’s friendship is the definition of #GOALSAF. I mean, who wouldn’t want their friendship, let’s be real here? I never ever want to stop writing with you, because I can’t imagine Mary without her BFF.
@watsonofagun
Angie! I started following you on my old account as Rosie, and to be honest - I was so intimidated by you and your freaking quality af writing that I could barely talk to you. Then, I made Mary, I got talking to you and all my fears went floating away because you are the definition of being sweet as a cupcake. I love talking to you about random little headcanons I think of at the most peculiar times of night, I love each new thread we write together, and most of all I freaking love you and your John. As Mary said to John, “You make me so happy” - every time I get one of your replies I smile excitedly for what seems like forever and then respond to it into my queue as soon as I can, because I know whenever I get a reply from you - it’s going to be a good one! Plus, you’re never allowed to stop writing with me okay because it’s not allowed, get it? Good!
@julietthotelwhiskey
Michelle, oh wait no I’m sorry, I forgot I was talking to Dr John Hamish Watson. While we’ve only got a couple of threads going on, they’re all so stupidly happy which, with the angst ridden agony story that is John and Mary, the two of them need a little happiness. I could never get bored reading your writing, not only just the ones to me, but with everyone else. Every little thing you do while writing John is so on point, it’s like Martin Freeman is sitting behind the screen writing it all himself. I really hope we continue to write together ( all the happy things, obviously, although I’m sure there’ll be a time where we somehow write something angsty together), because to get to write with you makes feel very, very lucky, okay? You’re so bloody brilliant and you should never forget it.
@geniusofdeduction
Tasha! I don’t know how you do it, but man oh man, your Sherlock is so bloody brilliant, always on point with absolutely everything and anything he says. how you manage to have dealt with him for as long as you have, I give you props (considering I used to RP Sherlock ages a go and gave up after a month). There’s a reason you have as many followers as you do and it’s truly because you write him in just a way that is perfectly yours, but also in the way that incapsulates everything we all love about the quirky pain in the butt that is Sherlock Holmes. I definitely feel lucky to get to be one of those people you choose to write with among all the brilliant people you could.
EVERYONE ELSE WHO FOR SOME REASON HAS WROTE WITH ME IN THE PAST OR I CONTINUE TO STALK FROM THE SIDELINES INTIMIDATED AF BECAUSE AS MENTIONED BEFORE, IM ACTUAL TRASH:
