omw to hit up everyone else's

If you were devising for yourself the most self-indulgent, absolutely peak dwrp game setting for you specifically, what would it be? (disregarding stuff like AC and so on, just specifically the premise)

if u have different answers for "as a mod" and "as a player" I will take both

OH BOY

well most ?? of my rp drive honest to god comes from the complete lack of Writing About Scar. that's where it came from when I first did dwrp when I was 16, and it remains true/why I came back. so any situation that lets me dig into his brain in a new way is aces for me

he has some really, really deep-tissue trauma surrounding state violence and family and sexuality that are core to his character but very difficult to tease to the surface in CR

so I WOULD send his ass to Silent Hill lmao

basically any scenario that lets me mix and match with the multitudes of subtext fma has to offer and the really interesting implicit connections between characters who don't even necessarily meet.

NGL I would love to see his ass in Silent Hill

on a scale from James Sunderland to Scar Alchemyshow, how much is it your fault that you're haunted by the sexualized facsimile of a dead woman, etc etc

lol

actual riotous applause that I got to do that splitworm thread with Heather jshzhxnabx

I'd also love to make him a homunculus for some reason, since his role in canon is already Dead Man Walking

It is a very fun thing to play with

we should species (i have a migraine I'm staring at this word uncertain if that is how it is spelled) swap sometime for funsies

...if it wouldn't be too traumatic for her to revert back, I guess

ohhhh I would love to see scar homunculus

Nah I don't think it would be too much for her

scar can be a califlower boy

Jrjauxkehabx with ham bone

it doesn't even have to be a swap, he could just be Undead For A Bit

I want to know what kinds of silent hill boss battle monsters Scar would have

GOD there would be. a lot of fire. just like everywhere

the surroundings themselves would be hostile and unstable, he would probably have some kind of slow, unstopping Pursuer that represents the state

like an It Follows type deal

a tank that can fit anywhere

terminarcher is there,

lmao

OH I HAVE A QUESTION

if you were to ever pick up an additional character, who do you think it would be

NOW, AT THIS POINT? Winry probably.

I'm at the point in my fandom life where I don't really care about other fandoms lol

I've just accepted that nothing else is going to poke my brain meat the same way

and I love Winry a lot

she has a fun voice

oh I thought of another one
you are held at gunpoint by terminarcher and forced to decide on a crosscanon ship for Scar. what is it

I've thought about this. a lot.

I ultimately run into the problem of just not being interested enough in shipping for shipping's sake

also I do think he is Straight straight and there is a dramatic dearth of women in rp LMAO

If someone actually wanted to date him, they would have to be 1. extremely EXTREMELY unreaaonably patient and probably 2. look absolutely nothing like Lust

I will totally allow for answers that you aren't personally interested in rping/characters you have never actually seen in rp!
I'm honestly mostly just curious whether you have any characters that come to mind as ones where it could work, given. /motions at Scar,

YEAH it's definitely a case of me not really being interested in shipping in general unless there is something really meaty inseparable from the ship itself

but he could maybe ??? make it work if the above parameters were met and given the right situation

ultimately, it only works with Lust because they're cut from the same trauma and she has a very deep internalized understanding of why he's Like This

and they are also together and alone in the same way, unbelonging in their home culture but longing for it all the same

so even if they weren't romantically involved, they would still have that bone-deep bond that he can't have with anybody else

SO.... yeah if some woman for SOME reason was like "yeah I'm fine with him disappearing for days at a time and avoiding going indoors without sunglasses and avoiding eye contact with authority figures" enough that it wouldn't cause tension that would ultimately end the relationship, HE POSSIBLY COULD?

it is much more likely that he would platonically cohabitate with someone, because he just isn't emotionally available enough

how is scar as a roommate

WEIRD

he does all the dishes and laundry and cooking but also might come and go at 3am for mysterious reasons

he's a really good roommate, but also he barely talks to anyone and he looks like he should be on a Russian dashcam video getting hit by a sedan then getting up and kicking their window in

he does all the laundry and cooks a lot in shark house, because he is very used to living in a more communal setting than as any kind of nuclear fanily

so if you can tolerate him doing ridiculous workouts at weird hours, you are set

...........hate how correct you are about the russian dashcam video
immediately had a mental image

LMAO

he's made for it

if he remembers that he's a living being and not a conduit of vengeance that happens to be inconveniently made of mortal flesh, he might even get a cat.

(that is the other part of trying to form a relationship with him, first he needs to remember how to act like a person who wants things)

lust will grab him by the scruff and demand that he's not allowed to awaken her lost humanity, die for her, then act surprised when she wants to be around him, so he needs a kick in the head on That Level to start considering opening up to someone on purpose

he DOES often end up with some kind of unrequited Thing with a man tho, because he will just quietly tolerate being followed around by Some Guy and is very good at ignoring obvious advances

Currently, that is BJ

and I enjoy that CR a lot because people being attracted to Scar absolutely baffles him.

as long as the other player is cool with it not being reciprocated
