DO YOU LIKE WRITING LONG THREADS? DO YOU POUR YOUR HEART AND SOUL INTO LENGTH STARTERS THAT JUST GET EATEN UP BY THE TAGS? ARE YOU GUILTY OF RAMBLING?

If you answered ‘YES’ to all those questions, then this post is for you. If you answered ‘NO’, read anyway, because it might be handy dandy information.

[A while back, I made a post about the concept of this tag and if it wasn’t for @bramares, I probably wouldn’t have done anything about it. So thanks to them for pushing me to continue this idea.]

What is #indie para rp? Well, I feel like I should start by stating the main thing that it is NOT:

- #indie para rp is NOT an exclusive tag, meaning that everyone and anyone is allowed to tag their starters there. You do not have to role-play with me, follow me, or have any association with me to post your starters in this tag. It is communal.

#indie para rp is a tag for people who want to search up, respond too and write hefty starters. As much as one liners are fantastic as are snapchat starters for when you feel like something easy and quick, I’ve always felt like there needs to be a tag for when you’re searching for something medium to long in length. As the occasional paragraph gets lost in amongst all the short starters in the indie tag.

The purpose of this tag, is much like the purpose of the ‘indie smut rp’ tag, the ‘indie lesbian rp’ tag, the ‘indie gay rp’ tag (tw indie, spn indie, twd indie). In those tags you’ll find threads that are specific to their namesake, making roleplaying quicker and easier. 

Obviously this tag will move a lot slower than the ‘indie rp’ tag, as less people will post in it, especially at the beginning. But I see it as a way for your starters not to get eaten up or not seen, it gives people a chance to go into the tag and reply to things that perhaps might be a week or so old but have gotten zero notes.

Obvious if you tag your starter in the #indie para rp tag, you’d still tag it in the ‘indie rp’ and/or ‘indie smut rp’ tags, but the added #indie para rp should increase the chance of getting more notes from people that are interested in responding to lengthy starters, with lengthy replies.

THE ONLY RULE: Please don’t post in the tag if you’re going to post a one liner, or a snapchat starter, or merely a gif. This tags purpose is for paragraph starters, everyones definition of what length a paragraph is may be different, but a good chunk of writing or more should make it a-okay to tag #indie para rp.

SIDE NOTE: There are a few old threads lingering in the tag, but slowly they’ll disappear as more people post using the hashtag. 

I believe that is all, not sure if this will be a total flop, but regardless hopefully something becomes of it. Any questions feel free to message me.

I have a massive favor to ask all of you. Please take just two minutes out of your busy days to do this. I’m asking for honesty, and for your empathy.

If you have ever, in your entire roleplaying career, been intimidated to go up to someone to ask for a roleplay, please like or reblog this post. If you have ever considered giving up roleplaying because you felt like a bother to people, or like you were being ignored, please like or reblog this post. If you have ever thought your roleplaying wasn’t good enough, or compared your rping to someone else’s and felt you weren’t as good as them, please like or reblog this post.

It’s just one click. One moment of honesty. And it could possibly prove a very big point to someone incredibly special to me that I don’t want to lose.

I’d be even more honored if you could share some words of encouragement about your struggles with roleplay, to let them know they’re not alone.

Thank you.

But if there is one thing I can fake my way through better than other feelings, it is pain. I have felt it so many times.

Nalrie sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose. Practically since she sat down at the cafe, this guy had been bothering her, trying to strike up conversation and clearly not taking ‘no’ for an answer. She knew she could easily deck him, and that’d get him to leave her alone, but given how easily it’d be for the police to get involved if she did that, it wouldn’t be wise. Instead, the security guard simply drank her coffee and attempted to protect the half of a sandwich and her muffin from the idiot, looking for a way out.

“How about dinner? Or lunch, even? I’m flexible.” He grinned, cocky. “Or, we could easily call this our first date and I could drive you home.”

She internally groaned, fighting every instinct to say what was on her mind. Nalrie watched the rain trail down the window until she heard the door open, glancing to it hopefully. A young woman? Girl code time. The security guard flashed a bright smile, standing. 

“Hey! It’s been a while! How’ve you been?” Nalrie attempted to speak cheerfully as she closed the distance between them, lightly resting a hand on the woman’s shoulder and lowering her voice to a mumble once she was sure the asshole wouldn’t overhear. “I’ll pay for whatever you get today if you pretend you know me, this guy won’t leave me alone.”

Bribery was hardly above her at this point.
