this can also be a general ama!!

I'm also going to answer some of the questions I want to answer instead of waiting around for people to ask me things and being sad when they do not.

2. Do you listen to music while you write? If so, what do you like to listen to?

I don't do this, really, and I rarely have "character songs" — I've made playlists for memes and stuff but it's always a challenge. A fun challenge!! But still.

When I do put on music for writing it's usually classical or something else without lyrics. I get distracted by lyrics.

18. What makes for a great roleplay partner in your opinion?

if they have pictures they share of their cute pets.

Honestly, the two qualities I appreciate most are 1) sticking with CR so that it can build in an interesting way and 2) being willing to push to get to that interesting place.

The first one doesn't mean being super active, or even super consistent, though it can— just being willing to work around bad months, communicate what needs to be handwaved, things like that.

It's something I've struggled with lately due mostly to the state of the world. But it is the ideal.

19. Have you received anon hate? If so, how do you deal with it?

Troubling that this is a question!! Turn anon off on your tumblr inboxes, folks.

Anyway I was in oldschool C&C so had a few weird anonymous incidents as that game went through an extreme cliquey phase. I feel like we're mostly in a better place but this might be due to a willful obliviousness I cultivate and also a near total non participation in Discord.

13, 14

so i need to post more pictures of patsy is what i'm getting from this

yes

13. Who are five of your favorite characters? (In the rp community or otherwise)

I'm gonna try naming some characters I don't rp: Becky Sharp, Eustace Scrubb, Matt Murdock, Katniss Everdeen, Catherine Morland

14. What are five of your favorite ships? (In the rp community or otherwise)

me reading this: do I even have five ships

but in fact I have four ships listed as favs on just my natasha account (bucky, clint, matt, sharon) they just never happen so I just feel like I ship nothing

I've played Bucky/Natasha a few times in game or on memes but always as a Bucky player, never in the other direction

Interesting

It makes me sad Natasha/Sharon isn't easier to find.

and my version is 616 so that makes it even harder, though mcu Sharon had a rough deal

though in RP I'd be more game for a shippy crossover than I usually am

which, in fact, I am usually pretty game for a shippy crossover, it's just weird when it involves the au counterparts of major exes

natasha/mcu!tony? fine. natasha/mcu!matt is harder b/c of all the baggage involved with matt murdock. i've contemplated trying to write the straight mcu version of the pairing, though, just as an imagination exercise.

Anyway for a fifth pairing, my OTP archetype is Locke/Celes
