TOUCH 👏 MY 👏 MUSE 👏

YOU DO NOT NEED MY PERMISSION

IT MAKES IT UNPREDICTABLE AND IMMERSIVE

I APPROVE, 10/10, GO AHEAD AND SHOVE THEM AROUND OR SURPRISE THEM WITH A CUDDLE, YOU DO NOT NEED TO ASK (just don't kill them but we all know this)

[whydotheykeeptakingmine]

This is not like a fully completed thought but yk

So I've done my first aid + CPR a few times. And every single time I try and bring up scenarios for fat folks

Specifically like 'what if someone is too large for me to wrap my arms around then to do the heimleich'

And its incredibly rare I get a decent answer.

How absolutely insane is it that me, as a fat person, is asking how to have MY life saved or to save ANOTHER life, is an impossible feat if someone is fat.

Most of the time they tell me to 'just try anyways uwu'

There has got to be a better option.

// PSA.

I do not intentionally mean to drop threads randomly.

I do not intentionally mean to forget to reply.

I do not intentionally take forever to reply.

I do not intentionally favor other writers.

I will always LOVE writing with all of you!! just because I do the above things =/= me having lesser interest in our interactions. this has been a PSA.

send me ❤ and I will bold all that applies to your muse

I would kill for you. • I would make love to you. • I would fuck you. • I would protect you. • I would hurt you for a selfish cause. • I wish we had more in common. • I want nothing to do with you. • I want to see you cry. • I want a future with you. • I want to destroy your future. • I do not care what you do. • I am indifferent towards you. • I want children with you. • I love you ( platonically ) • I love you ( romantically ) • I love you life family. • You are my family. • I could fall in love with you. • I would lie for you. • I would fight by your side. • I will never let you go. • I would hold you while you cried. • I would hug you. • I want to kiss you. • I would stay by your bedside if you were ill. • I want to fall asleep with you in my arms. • I want to forget you. • I will never forget you. • I only want to make you proud. • I wish I could make you happy. • You deserve nothing. • I will never forgive you. • You confuse me.

never be embarrassed for being proud of your OC.  never listen to the voices telling you they’re too powerful or too weak,  too angry or too happy,  too hard or too vulnerable,  too strong or not strong enough.  if they are exactly how you intended to create them,  or if they’ve grown beyond what you imagined in a way that makes you happy,  then that’s all that matters.  every published and produced ‘canon’ character is someone’s OC.  you don’t bat an eye at these characters being proclaimed to be powerful.  you don’t bat an eye at them being praised within the text or loved by the writers and fans.  your OC is no different.  there is not any real,  important difference between what you’ve created and what you see on the pages of a book or on a screen.  it’s all of equal value.  it’s all just people telling stories and enjoyment is the only real value.

what does your muse fear losing the most?

There's many things that come to mind. But above all..

Themself.

They've stretched and squished and shoved so much of themself down into different boxes to fit what was wanted by others who didn't want them as they were.

They are starting to bring themself out of the boxes they had been shoved into, and they fear being shoved back in and never being free and themself again.

How does your muse handle loneliness?

Loneliness is like old armor for Isaiah. Something donned time and again as protection against hurts both past and current.

When it's not a simple loneliness, he sits in the main areas of mess or goes to the rec rooms at different times.

If it's instinct and reflex, he wears it like a coat in winter. Held close and tight, using it to protect himself. Yes he's alone, but no one there means no one can hurt him again.

Usually those days end with an appointment set up with their therapist if they get to bad.

I'll tell you when you get your soft, italicized, Oh

the unrelated moment

you tend to be more preoccupied with practical things, to the point where you've been blinded to matters of the heart. sure, you're close with this person. you like to be close with people. it is rewarding to know and be known in return. you leave realization no choice but to sneak up on you. they're not even in the room when it happens. someone or something else spells it out for you, an observant friend's passing comment or a particular sentence you were reading in a book, and suddenly it hits you, what it all means. the person your feelings have been building themselves around. Oh. it's them. it's time. it's them and you, here and now, and you have to decide what to do at this crossroads. luckily, you're practically-minded.

Repost of Instagram post by alessandra_sanguinetti:

“In 2004 I worked as an intern in Newsweek and had to go through the wires coming in from the Middle East.

The Iraq war was raging. Israel was committing its routine violations and killings.

The images were devastating and unequivocally condemning of both the USA and Israel, but I remember the editors would reject all my picks and demand images of burnt cars or vague images of destruction.

So I brought a hard drive and collected everything they didn't publish.

It was my first live glimpse of the lack of ethics or integrity in most US media.

Not the journalists on the ground, but of the senior editors making the calls - in their self important glass cubicles.

And no, to the cynics out there..it's not all too complicated to discuss on social media.

Social media is the only reason we know what's happening in Palestine.

And the only reason mainstream news has to keep up and sprinkle some actual news now and then.

Meanwhile we are seeing much less footage coming out of Gaza - Israel has been killing off all the journalists.

This is terrifying.”

reminder that a bad experience you've had with one person in the rpc doesn't mean you're going to have that same experience with everyone else in the community.  just bc someone dropped you as a partner for whatever reason,  for not doing what  they  wanted you to do,  for not matching  their  writing standards or style,  it doesn't mean that applies to everyone else.  keep giving new people a chance and approach them with a fresh perspective.  don't change who you are and how you want to run 'your' blog so it is comfortable for  'others'  around you.  ♡♡

send ‘i licked you so you’re mine now’ for my muse’s reaction.

Ooc update:

This weekend is the coming convention and such that's been draining my time and energy after work, so soon I'll be back to more free time soon!

I've got replies drafted and half finished and some I'll be able to queue as soon as I can finish them!

My ask box and DMs are still open if wanted for plotting and all!

i'm okay with:

starting over - are you a little overwhelmed with where our thread is going? let me know, and i'd be happy to start a new one with you!

pausing - if you're feeling one thread more than another we have going on, that's perfectly fine! you're welcome to let me know if you'd like, but it's not a necessity.

multiples - if we have a ship that you love and you have many ideas for them, always feel welcome to throw them at me no matter what! while it may affect my reply speed due to having more, it doesn't affect my interest at all!

regrouping - maybe we initially had an idea that didn't pan out but you don't know how to say it? just shoot me a message and let me know you'd like to plot further/something else.

anything else - have we not talked and you want to? shoot me a message! send in a meme if you don't know where to start! ask for my discord! i may not initiate too often myself, but i love being able to love our threads together!
