GUIDELINES

Independent. Private. Selective. Written by Walden.
Multimuse, Original Character, AU, & Crossover Friendly.

I. GENERAL The writer has a decade of RP experience. I have, as a matter of fact, written one of my characters on tumblr for exactly a decade as of March 2023. These rules have formed over that time. Please read them.The writer and muse are both over 18. Regardless, I have no interest in threads with extreme violence (as in, I’m not into writing or reading a lot of blood and gore/extreme horror genre threads) or scenes of explicit sexual nature (implying something happened is one thing, but trying to play it out is quite another).II. FOLLOWING I am private and selective, meaning that I will not follow everyone and this is nothing against them or their ability or their character. I simply work a full-time job and have other factors that make it where I like to keep a clean dash for the sake of my sanity.I am completely open to RPing with OCs. I’ve written more than a few myself, here and elsewhere, and written with plenty from other writers. All characters were someone’s OC at some point or other. Some have just had more keepers than others.I understand how challenging it can be to find people willing to ‘take a risk’ or so much as acknowledge you. So long as the OC is well-written and well-developed and I can see how interaction could take place, I am perfectly willing to give it a shot. My preference is usually having a bio page, but I get life can be a bit crazy and getting everything about your character down into one page can be daunting at times. So long as you’re okay with me wanting to talk and chat so I can see how I think out characters could interact, it’s all good.I will also usually RP even with multiples of the same character or with different characters who have the same faceclaim. [ I will not acknowledge that they ‘look alike’ or ‘have the same face’. ] I love seeing the different takes that everyone has on their characters. Everyone brings something different, and I find it absolutely fascinating. There are a few exceptions due to developments in interacting because sometimes you just click with certain RPers and their characters. Any cases of this will be listed in my ‘mains’ page.III. MAINS & EXCLUSIVES While I do not practice exclusivity in 9.99999 of 10 cases, I do occasionally pick up mains.
For me, this means that I will still be writing with others of the same muse, but the people listed will have priority as I have spoken with the writers a fair amount and am already quite attached to their particular take on their muse(s) and on the relationships/plots we have planned. Especially in cases where my focus is low and I know that I won’t manage more than a reply or two, they will very likely receive replies before I consider any others unless the mood/writing focus at the time dictates otherwise. I am always open to more mains, of course, with enough OOC talk and plotting, but this is where I am at the moment!
Though exceedingly rare, there is the odd case where I will find myself with an exclusive, usually due to the writing having somehow fundamentally shaped my idea of the character and in how my character(s) interact with them. They are exclusives because they are the definitive version of that character for myself and my muses. If you are a multi with a character that I list as exclusive to/with someone, know that I will still follow you, and I would still love to write with your other characters. Just not the one that I have listed.Some examples of this are that I have a couple of friends who no longer write on tumblr, but I still will not write anywhere with any other Kate Bishop, Clint Barton, Emma Frost, or Natasha Romanoff of Marvel. I also will not write with any other Hector Barbossa of Pirates of the Caribbean.

IV. PLOTTING This account is open to RP with nearly any fandom. My preference is to have at least some vague knowledge of the fandom, but if a writer is willing to fill me in, I can manage. I am always willing to make new AUs and help craft crossovers. In fact, I love to do so! It's always interesting to see what can happen when you mix things up a bit!My preference for talking and plotting with other writers is through messaging, not asks, so that there are no slip-ups with ‘answer privately.’V. INBOX THINGS & STARTER CALLS I don’t mind curious anons and whatnot, or even non-mutuals who have ooc/headcanon questions, but I will only write and thread and answer in-character asks from memes and starters with mutuals.That said, the askbox is always open to memes, questions, or even conversation, in or out of character––so long as it is for or about the character. I won’t ask that you send in for every single meme you may reblog from me, but please don’t make me feel like a meme resource. I’m here to write a character just like you.I do roleplay/thread from asks. If you would like to continue one that I answered for you, all I request is that you put it in a post separate of the original ask. If you are unable to do this due to technical issues, just let me know.VI. FORMATTING I do not format. If you choose to do so, by all means, but I haven't the brain power to do it myself.Mostly, my writing style is paragraphs (of varying lengths) with icons thrown in along the way. Please do not ever feel that you must match me for length of reply. [All I ask is that you give me enough to work with in your reply.] I do know that I can get rather wordy. If it bothers you, please tell me and I can try to adjust. I am just very descriptive and fairly detail-oriented. I am also perfectly fine if you do not always use icons or if you never use icons.I have spent quite a bit of my life as an editor––both informal and for specific organizations. If I catch a small typo––a missed letter, flipped letters, duplicate letters and things like that––chances are I will correct it before I reblog. (I.E. ‘bettter’ to ‘better’ or ‘and thent hey’ to ‘and then they’. Please do not take offense. I simply hate to leave a mistake because I know times where I’ve made a mistake and it’s been reblogged before I caught it and I felt like an idiot. I like to avoid that for all parties where possible. This does not mean I will change anything major––syntax, meaning, etc––and I absolutely will not. Any changes made are only minor things. If you do not wish me to do so, just let me know and I will make a note.VII. SHIPPING I am not completely anti-ship, but I’m not specifically looking for ships with any of my accounts. If I ship at all, it is only with chemistry and usually only with people I have written with enough to decide that there is some kind of chemistry, or with whom I have messaged with enough to get the idea that there might be. Shipping is not a given. Do not try to force a ship on me. Mentioning it, asking if it’s a possibility, and/or attempting to plot if there is interest is one thing. Trying to twist my arm into shipping is another.VIII. CONCLUSION If you've stuck around thus far to read all of this, I appreciate you. I very much look forward to writing my muses with other writers, but I am also closer to thirty than not and I am Tired.Don’t start none, won’t be none. For that matter, even if you start some, there STILL won’t be none. It’s as simple as that. I love writing. I love storytelling. I love crafting stories with other people. I love making friends on here. But I’m not going to let this place infringe on my sanity anymore. If someone becomes toxic or unhealthy for me, I will politely inform that person that I am unfollowing and then, if it becomes necessary, blocking them. Period. I’m too old to be dealing with he said/she said, anon hate, and kindergarten antics. I’m here to write. I’m here to have fun. If you’re here for the same reason, we’re golden.
