Lets make some friends
advice for writing a stutterer from an actual stutterer;
okay no shade at all I just want all of u to learn and grow and become better writers! so hereās a handy tip list!
we donāt stutter on every word. okay, sometimes it can seem it, but honestly, we donāt, so leave a few words in there to give your readers some breathing room.
we stutter more on specific sounds. for me, f and s sounds are big ones. everyone has their thing and most stutterers have sounds that are harder to get out.
we donāt just stutter at the beginning of words and sentences. okay, honestly this is a big one for me. sometimes, a word starts off really well and goes down the drain at the second syllable! and the stutter doesnāt disappear once weāve made it past the first word - it clings in there, so donāt forget it.
some of us donāt always stutter. some, not all, of us have whatās known as an anxious stutter, which generally comes alongside anxiety disorders. so, while it may be usually present, when a person with an anxious stutter is particularly comfortable with a situation, it tends to get better (or even almost disappear).
we donāt stutter when we swear. this is why some of us can stutter and stutter and stutter on a word and then shout fuck and everythingās cool. as far as science knows, this is because swearing is from a more primitive part of the brain, and so it bypasses the bit that makes us stutter! itās so cool honestly.
we donāt stutter when we sing. the biggest two reasons for this one is 1) music comes from a different part of the brain to talking (language=left; music=right), and so it once again bypasses the stutter, or 2) āeasy voiceā, which is the voice that people sing in, is softer and smoother, and the sounds are longer so thereās less opportunity to stutter. either option is way cool but we donāt stutter when we sing.
sometimes, we give up on words. after a certain amount of stuttering on a certain word, you may see a stutterer take a deep breath and either try again, or replace it with a synonym. sometimes that word just wonāt fit right in our mouths!
we hate it when people try to guess what weāre trying to say or try to speed us up. this might be a more personal thing for me, but thereās nothing I hate more than that clicky sound people make or the weird hand gestures or being told to āspit it out.ā because we canāt control this shit and it gets tiring. itās better just to let the person get it out and take their time with it, so when youāre writing, keep this in mind!
it gets worse when weāre anxious or stressed, and when weāre excited! I get really really stuttery when Iām enthusiastic about the topic of conversation, because I know so much about that thing that I try to talk really fast and my mouth canāt keep up! itās the same when Iām anxious or stressed - when thereās more on our minds, the more everything gets a little muddled.
I hope this was helpful! feel free to add on and spread around!
Hate yours
Be rude to yoursĀ
Become your characterās enemy
Be willing to attack/fight yours in a plot
Develop a bromance or platonic relationshipĀ
Have or receive UNreciprocated feelings with yours
Team up with your character against others
Otherwise engage in non-romantic interactions
(not gonna be able to rp again until sunday or monday bc my weekend will be without wifi, but Iām gonna ramble a lil bit. Iām gonna be putting a readmore so anyone who doesnāt particularly care can just move alone.
ok, so Iāve been considering making yet another rp blog. I donāt wanna have any more than three right now, so I have a few options.
1. I could make a blog for an older OC I have. Iāve had her for longer than Iāve had Steve, so sheās been developed into a decent character, and honestly sheās just so great and I miss rping with her. the only downside I can think of is that Iāve been meaning to change her name, but honestly Iāve been putting it off for too long, so I suppose if I decide to do it Iād be kicking my own ass into finally getting it done. so itās not really a downside, but Iām lazy, tired, and have a lot of shit on my mind right now.
2. I could make a blog for my bnha oc. sheās way newer, and I havenāt even come up with her last name or anything, but honestly I would love to develop this character more and explore her personality. Iād have to wait longer to make her blog because I havenāt thought about all the basic necessities yet, but that will come in time.
the thing with this is that Iām worried about her becoming unappealing to potential rp partners. this isnāt based on my tendencies to try and make everyone happy, because sheās my character and characters are the one thing I can be likeĀ āfuck you, this is my thing and Iām not changing it for you.ā my thing here is that when Iām roleplaying a character, I want any rp partners to like the character enough to want to roleplay with me. I mean, with how sheās going so far, I donāt think it will really be a problem because sheās turning out to be a great person, but I know how picky are with OCs, Iām having a hard enough time as it is getting people with Steve.
3. just sayĀ āfuck itā and make a blog for both. I can do this, my issue is that I donāt know if it will overwhelm me. neither of my current blogs are popular, but because sheās a canon character, I feel like my Witch Mercy blog will probably pick up, which is great, but I get overwhelmed easily and if it picks up too much too quickly, I donāt know how Iād be able to manage that, and an extra two blogs on top of Steveās.Ā
granted, sheās mostly my interpretation of her because sheās only Witch Mercy and we donāt have a lot on her besides what we know in the tale of Junkensteinās Revenge, but sheās still a canon character, and those tend to be much more popular than OCs. which is bullshit, but Iām going to save my OC rant for later.
4. also sayĀ āfuck it,ā but this time make a blog for the bnha oc and put the older oc on here with Steve. I used to have a multimuse blog, and they both came from said blog, so I know I can manage it. my problem here is that I know a lot of people donāt like multimuse blogs, whether it be because theyāre confusing, or whatever other reasons Iāve seen and I canāt think of.Ā
now, I realize I sound like Iām only roleplaying for the popularity or whatever, but thatās not the case. Iām roleplaying so I can get better at writing and develop my character, but I very well canāt do that without a partner. I can find other partners at different places, but what I like about doing it on the hellsite is that I can see how people write, and they have their information right there so I know if Iād want to roleplay with them, or if thereās a possibility that theyād roleplay with me. the downside is, again, how nitpicky people are about original characters. and again, Iāll rant about that later.
so uh, if anyone read this far, a cookie! and tell me what you think! if youāre willing to read all of that rambling and have any suggestions for me, I really wanna hear what you have to say!
seriously though if you read this far and are genuinely interested in what I have to say Iād love you forever
(sorry I havenāt been active for a while, Iāve been having a hard time this past week or so, and I really wanted to play some Junkensteinās Revenge so I kinda put rping on the backseat for a while,,,
