i haven’t been on this blog in a Hot Minute but i am begging for rp recs and/or writing partners
better ideas for chance encounters than a bar or coffee shop:
a storm is delaying our flight home and i’m afraid of thunder, please talk to me while we wait
we’re both in small claims court and i got into a huge fight with the person suing me but you stepped in to hold me back before security got there
i drove two hours to the closest video rental store that’s still operating and you were checking out the only copy of the movie i was after
i hit you with my car but luckily you’re okay, but we should still exchange information i guess
our friends that we came here with went off together and now we’re making awkward small talk
i was worried about buying something off of someone creepy from craigslist but oh no you’re hot
my friend talked me into playing a drunken game of spin the bottle even though we’re all adults and now we have to make out
we both decided to take a [yoga/fencing/cooking etc] class and we’re the only two assholes not taking it seriously and everyone else is giving us dirty looks but we keep grinning over at each other
my date just made a scene in public and got arrested and now i’m stranded in a city without a ride home
sharing a cab together
you’re trying to get me to sign a petition and i have no idea what you’re talking about
you’re drunk at this festival and dancing on the table and when you eventually fell i caught you
i tried to get a part time job at this place right by my house but they hired you instead and i have to see you every day when i go there now
blind date!
my roommate is your ex, and your roommate is my ex, and i caught them sleeping together and told you so now we’re pissed off and going on a date to get away from them even though we didnt really know each other before now
how to use beta + trim reblogs
so! we all know about beta editor by now. for better or for worse, a lot of us are using tumblr's new beta editor, and it's likely that everyone will have no choice but to use it soon. this unfortunately means a lot of us can't use the new xkit to trim our roleplay posts. there have been a lot of posts explaining this and the benefits of xkit rewritten; this one, this one, and this one especially helped me understand what's going on. however, a lot of people still seem to be floundering around in the dark so i wanted to make a tutorial that sums up everything i've learned from other tutorials as well as my own trial and error.
if you want a step by step guide to trimming reblogs (with screenshots) as well as a brief overview of beta editor's pros and cons, keep reading.
Thinking about him. And also her. Bisexually
I took a test on like where you are on the ‘nonverbal intimacy scale’ and the average female score is 102 and male is 93.8 and I got 56 lolololol
here it is if ya want (reblog/reply w/ what you get!!)
do u ever ship something so hard
that you literally cant imagine either of them w someone else
like its not that you dont want to imagine them with someone else
its that you cant
xindomitam-archive:
I want to RP real shit in a ship. I want the fights, the tears, the late nights with pillowtalk, the dumb discussion and small intimate moments, the duties and the nights ordering food because they’re too lazy to cook anything. i want disagreements and fooling around, being silly. i want the trips to places, to an amusement park, to a boring art museum one of them wanted to go, to the mall, roadtrips, lazy mornings and early, hurried mornings. little scares, silly texting when they’re apart, whining about things to eachother, night cuddles and nights where they don’t even touch because of a disagreement. I want the cute nights in, and the nights out. I want to see the pairing grow, I want it to take time and be complex, i want it to be factible, and not a fairytale. I want the good and the bad that comes with a relationship.
Please take as long as you need to reply
Please come talk to me about headcanons, ships and plots
Please introduce me to all your characters
Please never be afraid to start new things with me (even if we already have 1000)
Please leave endless amounts of memes and all kinds of random stuff in my inbox
Please IM me about things that happen in your life
Please feel free to be yourself
Please HAVE FUN

Writing Alcoholics
Okay, real talk about a sensitive subject: Tony Stark is an extremely high functioning alcoholic.
High functioning alcoholics can function like normal people, for the most part, even when smashed. They don’t slur their words or stumble or show any real overt signs of drunkenness until they are WAY past the normal threshold. The tipoff is the smell. You can smell the liquor on them even if they haven’t spilled a drop. Sometimes, I think it comes through their pores.
Alcoholics usually have a higher tolerance for alcohol, built up like an immunity to poison…because that’s basically what it is. Often they will begin their day with alcohol, for a variety of reasons, not least of which is the ever present hangover. Some can’t function normally without it. But high functioning alcoholics will generally seem normal while intoxicated.
If you suddenly remove all alcohol, some of them experience delirium tremens (DTs), which you’ll need to look up if you want to use; they are rough and can be fatal if not experienced under the care of a medical facility.
Now, not all Tonys are alcoholic, I’m just taking about the ones who are. High functioning alcoholics are not silly drunks or cartoonish. They can walk a straight line, they can even operate vehicles (they are still impaired, they just hide it better).
He doesn’t slur or slide his consonants. He doesn’t fall down. Hell, drinking might actually calm normal mood swings for him. He could still be charming. He could be MORE charming while drunk.
And remember, people are alcoholics for REASONS. It’s self medication. Nobody is addicted to alcohol for fun. Nobody gets there on purpose.
Addition for those who feel like writing something featuring a character in withdrawal, here’s some info:
Alcohol withdrawal is one of the worse withdrawals a person can go through. Even in hospitals with access to advanced medical care, it can still prove fatal.
Withdrawal can start as soon as 2 hours after the last drink, but usually starts somewhere between 6-24 hours. The initial symptoms include shakiness, nausea, vomiting, sweating, anxiety, headache and insomnia. While these symptoms can sometimes last for several weeks, at this point they are non-life-threatening. For some people, this is all the withdrawal symptoms they will experience.
If you feel like continuing your character’s torture, between 12 and 24 hours after their last drink, visual hallucinations may begin. These usually won’t last beyond 48 hours, and your character will typically know they are hallucinations and not real. The hallucinations typically take the form of spiders, snakes, or other creepy crawlies.
If that is still not enough for your whump goals, in some patients tonic-clonic (grand mal) seizures start 24-48 hours after the last drink. While the seizures are usually self-limiting, this is where the withdrawal starts to get potentially dangerous- about 3% of people who develop withdrawal-related seizures will develop status eplepticus, a condition in which a seizure may last for more than 30 minutes, deprives the body of oxygen, and may cause brain damage.
Now, if you’re really looking to put your character in danger, Delirium Tremens is the next step. This starts at about days 3-10 (peaks around day 5) and is hugely dangerous- untreated, 35% of people who develop DTs will die. Even with medical treatment, this number only goes down to about 10%. That’s one in about 10 people will still die even under medical supervision.
DTs symptoms include: High blood pressure, visual and/or tactile (touch) hallucinations which the person cannot distinguish from reality, tachycardia (high heart rate), fever, confusion, severe shaking, severe anxiety, profuse sweating, additional seizures, irregular heartbeat.
Treatment includes:
Benzodiazepines- the body uses these chemicals similarly to the way it uses alcohol- meaning they can help decrease or postpone withdrawal without exposing the person to actual alcohol. They can also decrease blood pressure, heart rate, anxiety and occurrence of seizures, making them ideal drugs for treating withdrawal.
Antipsychotic medications (often haloperidol) for treating hallucinations
IV Glucose (D5W), which decreases risk of DTs or worsening withdrawal.
IV Electrolytes
IV nutrient replacement- particularly thiamine, folate, magnesium and niacin. These are typically vitamins and minerals the body has a difficult time absorbing after long-term alcohol use, and replacing them reduces risk of complications.
If caught early and treated aggressively, the person has a higher chance of surviving. One problem is that the medications (particularly the benzodiazepines) must be given in very high doses to be effective. Medical professionals may not recognize this need and so may not prescribe or administer appropriate amounts of the drugs to counter the withdrawal symptoms. This is a very real problem and sometimes results in under medication, which can be extremely dangerous or uncomfortable to the person in their care.

* feel free to reblog and add anything I might’ve missed.
Whenever your character is not in a scene, you have to leave the room.
I’m a little embarrassed to admit, I’ve played with groups where we enforced this. I guess they wanted to keep player vs. character knowledge as authentic as possible. It made for some fun surprises, ngl.
You can also do this to a certain extent with DM controlled rolls / notes on things like stealth, perception, investigation, etc.
Even if your players are very good at thinking in character, there is a TON of tension that is created when a player takes a note from the DM and just nods rather than the DM saying the same thing out loud for the whole group
As a DM, denial of information can be just as valuable in setting the tone as the information itself
I have in the past occasionally handed someone a note that says “this is a note. Look briefly surprised, then hand this back” and you wouldn’t believe what it does for the paranoia levels of a party who are used to note passing from the GM.
