❣

❣ ━ If you could marry one fictional character, which one and why?: None, because I don’t wanna do the marriage thing. As for date? Ohh… Butch, a couple friend’s OCs, FF7′s Reno..I’m gonna be shallow with the why: Because they all cute.

Since I only got the one symbol for this one, I’m doing the rest because they all appeal to me, and I don’t feel like reblogging the meme until I get more asks.

☆ ━ If you could live in the world of your muse(s) would you?:

Hmmmm! I’d like to visit the Wasteland, but I don’t wanna live there? I’m not well-suited for survival I think, and Vault living isn’t my thing either (even if all the Vaults were non-experimental). I certainly don’t want to add to the Vault population - no kids for me plz.

▲ ━ How many muses do you have on tumblr in total? 

I play two. That’s enough for me right now.

✦ ━ Are there any muse(s) you miss roleplaying?   

Yeah. I tried to bring Julian into rp land, but that didn’t go over so well at the time. Sometimes, I want to try bringing him back, but he’s a very sexual character, and I’m not super into that type most of the time?

I also miss playing Dietrich from Trinity Blood. That was some fun rp times.

❀ ━ If you could be re-incarnated into any animal in a next life, which would you choose and why?  

I’d want to be a raven or a crow, and experience what it’s like to fly. Or a hyena, because hyenas are awesome.

♬ ━ What are your top 3 favorite songs?

Right now? The New Electric - Life’s What You Make It, Eight Seconds - Kiss You When It’s Dangerous, and Fall Out Boy - Fourth of July.

✖ ━ What’s something you’re very curious about?  

Outer space, and storms

◕ ━ What’s something you consider is a special talent you can do? ( it can be big or small )

I can draw?

☁ ━ What is your opinion on cereal?

Delicious. I need to eat more of it because it’s an easy breakfast, and I’m terrible at making myself eat when I wake up.

☮ ━ What do you do to try and get the muse to roleplay a character? 

With Dimi and Paleface, I don’t really feel that I need to do anything to get into the mood to play them; I just have to be in the mood to write, really. Dimi’s my preferred muse because I’ve been playing her so long, and am more attached to her.

☂ ━ What’s your favorite kind of weather and why?  

Comfortable temperatures: sunny with a light breeze. Also rainy/stormy. I love me a good thunder storm. In another life, I’d be a storm chaser.

☑ ━ What’s something not a lot of people know about you?

I kinda answered this in others, but my desire to not have children, and storm chaser interest?

TLDR; I’m having issues with writing. Be back ASAP

I’ve been quiet around here much longer than I expected to be. It’s not a lack of time that’s keeping me away.

I’ve tried to tackle my drafts, but what I do manage to write out feels sub par to what I usually respond with, and a few sentences seem to take ages to form.

Writer’s block? Maybe? It’s definitely frustrating because I want to write Dimi (and Paleface) and interact with people, but that’s near-impossible when you can’t word.

I want to be back. I’m going to like my writing again. I just don’t know how long that’ll take.

[dimiblaisdale]

((I’ve been bitten by an art bug, so that’s where my creative output has been going into. I do plan to chip away at my drafts over the coming days, though. I’m just so happy I feel like drawing for once, so I’m taking advantage of that feeling 8) ))

[dimiblaisdale]

Welp, I think I jinxed myself posting that because all my free nights had something happen, leaving me with no time to draw or write much :D. 

I’m not sure how my morning shifts are going to treat me for the next 2 days; I’ve done nothing but evening shifts for the past few months. But! After these, I should have some actual time to sit and write.))

[psycrowe]

An experiment I started not long after I started FO4, and recently finished; the art bug has bitten :D

Anyway, I wanted to try re-drawing Dimi into some screenshots I’ve taken of her by sketching over the in-game model and tweaking things a little, mostly to be more Dimi-like than what the game allows.

One thing I noticed, when I was pretty much done, was that it looked like all her weight was being held by the arm on the back of the couch. I had to sink her into the couch. I’m not 100% pleased how that attempt worked out; I think if I caught it sooner, I could’ve pulled it off better, but hey - learning experience for when I do the next edit :D

Because this was a fun, quick way to draw my Fallouts.

TMA PRESENTS — A FALLOUT RP MASTERLIST

In response to the staggering number of RP blogs who reblogged our previous, general masterlist call, I’ve decided to create an RP masterlist for those who wish to easily  find others within the RP community. There are a couple regulations, of course, so read on below!

REGULATIONS

Naturally, you need to be a Fallout roleplayer. You must run an indie roleplay blog. Groups and 1x1 rp blogs will not be added.

Our RP directory will be categorized as efficiently as possible. In order to help us do that, you will need to reblog this post and add tag what is applicable!

     Canon, OC, or Player Character           ( If your character is canon: tag their name as well! )           ( If your character is a PC: tag their title (Lone Wanderer, Courier, etc). )      Main Verse ( Which Fallout game are they from? )      Faction ( If applicable. )

Please do so as simply as possible—this way, we can quickly add your blog without having to rummage through your blog. Those who don’t tag their reblog with at least the type of character they play and their main verse will not be added to the list.

Likes are NOT counted!

The masterlist will be updated throughout the week. If you have questions, comments, or concerns, shoot us an ask and well get to it as soon as possible.

Dimi was seated in front of a car, busy trying to pry a headlight from its housing with a variety of tools; it was likely what Paris heard. The redhead didn’t realize she had company, but she was also partially hidden from view by a few other cars that had been abandoned on the road long ago.

But she wasn’t alone.

Her companion was wandering the area, exploring and looking for any small critters to chase and snack on. Drawn to the ‘Marco’. a German Shepherd wandered into Paris’s sight and stared at him; judging from her condition, and collar, she was no wild stray. That bat in Paris’s hands wasn’t a welcome sight, however, and the shepherd’s hackles quickly rose; a few seconds later, she started to bark - a warning, maybe to Paris, but more so to her person.

[unsteady-gun-deactivated2017052]

   Hearing the click clack of dog paws on tarmac made him pause his movements. It could’ve been mongrels, even mutant hounds, but on the off chance there was an actual non-hostile canine friend, he kept still and looked for movement. A pair of fortunately furry paws were the first thing Paris saw, making him grin brightly.    “Ey, `ili holoholona.” he crouched down, using his bat to balance himself, “Pehea ‘oe?”

   The way he spoke was unusually gentle in contrast to his day to day growls and snarky bites. He held out a lax balled fist for the dog to sniff a, noticing it’s collar and shiny, clean coat. There was probably a person nearby, he just hoped they were as indifferent to his presence as their dog.

[dimiblaisdale]

The bark was definitely cause for concern. While Emma was still young and learning, she knew to make noise when potential danger was near.

Dimi immediately put down what she was doing and grabbed for her rifle. The cars may have blocked her from view, they also blocked whoever Emma was barking at from view; the redhead decided to lay flat and peer under the cars, looking for feet.

Aha.

Emma continued to bark, at least until Paris knelt and held out a hand. The shepherd remained wary, but curious. Her person always encountered friendly people who gave her pets, maybe this was one of them? Emma lowered her head, keeping her eyes on Paris while she sniffed at him. At least until the sound of a clunk, and movement behind Paris caught her eye.

Dimi rested her rifle upon the car between them, taking aim at the young man.

“Hey. Hoping ya ain’t trying to lure my dog over to ya so you can club her.”

[lyonofsteel-deactivated20160616]

“Not for others’ lack of trying.”

The comment’s almost made under her breath, as her fingers absentmindedly find her stomach. She traces the scars through the skin-tight fabric of her suit, wincing a little as she remembered the impact of the gauss round.

Nightmares still found her, made her relive the pain. It wasn’t being shot, that’d happened before and since without incident, but it was the sensation of…life flowing out of her body that made her tremble. That the dreams so often came with the memory of the Purifier, of that wave of energy zapping her consciousness and making her fear leaving her father, her friends…

…the very woman she’d left regardless, who stood before her now.

“For all intents and purposes, I…was. It took months before I was off death’s door…and, by then, the chaos meant I couldn’t step out. Not without risking a repeat of the attack.”

It’d taken sedatives and iron to keep her from marching out of the custody of the Sons Enclave remnant when the treatment finally worked. Even then, she’d gotten very near to escape before the realization that the Brotherhood was coming apart at the seams stayed her hand. To have returned would have brought questions as to how she survived and who had attempted to end her…and that would have meant civil war. Like her father before her, she could not bring herself to break the brotherhood over traitors.

But she felt no need to obscure now, not with the woman who did the impossible more than once.

“Traitors. They…wanted me dead, Kayla. The Elders wanted everything we accomplished in D.C…”

A sigh escapes.

“…and they succeeded.”

[dimiblaisdale]

It was a lot to take in.

The shock of seeing her friend alive still gripped her hard, and it took a while before her hand parted from the support beam. The tremble in her limbs didn’t stop when she did, so she clenched her fists in an attempt to control it.

She let Sarah speak; Dimi kept quiet mostly because she didn’t know what to say, and part of her was still wondering if she was hallucinating. The redhead glanced towards some settlers nearby, who appeared to be commenting on Sarah’s power armor between themselves. Her eyes then fell down to Emma next, who was lazily regarding her friend. When the Shepherd noticed Dimi’s eyes upon her, she wagged her tail. 

No, maybe she wasn’t hallucinating after all.

However, upon hearing the assassination attempt was done by traitors, Dimi felt like the air had been punched from her lungs. She quickly looked back to Sarah.

“They told everyone it was the Enclave who done it.” 

Anger took its hold over the shock. While she would never stop blaming that faction for her father’s death, there was a feeling of conflict to hear that her sworn enemies were not responsible for the death of her friend. 

“But of course they’d blame it on ‘em,” Dimi lowered her brows.”Nobody was gonna be able to find what was left of ‘em. And trust me, I kept an eye out for months after I got the news.”

She, too, couldn’t help but sigh.

“I didn’t stick around to watch it all crumble,” she admitted, “but I certainly didn’t like what I came home to. S’why I’m here in the Commonwealth; I came to have a little... chat with Arthur...” she couldn’t help but look a little pained.

Official commission post! Accepting those Fallout characters :D Closed

The above images are examples of how these are gonna look like; I don't have an example for a plain colored one, but just think colors without any shading, and maybe some highlights like the Dimi one. 

These will be for one character only, and one order per customer at this time.

A black and white bust sketch will be $25 USD A flat colored bust sketch will be $35 USD A shaded bust sketch will be $50 USD

Slots: 1. claimed 2. claimed

To claim a spot, send me a message over messenger (I feel that’s more reliable to arrive than asks). My only requirement for these commissions is that you have visual references: face claims, screenshots, or other's art of the character are good! All Fallout characters welcome - human, non-human, ghoul, etc.

Sketches will be sent to you to approve before I do any final work. Minor changes are allowed (adding missing scars, details, minor re-coloring, etc). Major ones will come with a fee depending on how major (pose change, expression re-do, etc). Payment is due once all the details are worked out privately; I'll send you my paypal address during this discussion. If you want a slot but can't pay right away, we can work something out :3.

I'm hoping to get these finished quick, and may re-open slots depending on if I feel I can take more.

[dimiblaisdale]

((I’ll be back around here replying to what I owe either tomorrow night or Tootsday! I am pooped after these last few shifts (12 hours are the worst). 

Tomorrow, I’ll most likely be posting my commission post for those interested though~))

HC seasons

Dimi isn’t the biggest fan of East coast winters. She’s got the clothes to keep her warm, but she’s happiest when she can just wear a shirt, jeans, and her jacket. 

While Nevada summers were something else, thus inspired her to adopt a more nocturnal life style, she misses that it never got super cold during the winter.

Her favourite is Spring/Fall on the East coast, when it’s nice and mild and perfect jacket-wearing weather.

[dimiblaisdale]

1-4

1. Their physical weak spots:

She’s got a chunk missing out of her left, upper side where she got caught by a ripper. It was a very bad wound that healed poorly. She’s taken a few hits there over the years, but has learned to be more guarded when in hand-to-hand fights.

She also took a bullet to her left shoulder, and that sometimes flares up.

2. Their emotional/moral weak spots:

Her temper gets the best of her a lot, and when friends/loved ones/kids are put in danger, she’s likely to react rashly.

3. Scars or painful spots:

Pretty much the same as #1. Although a scar I keep forgetting about is the smiley face on her ass. Thank you, Moira Brown. 

4. Best places to kiss on their body:

Uhhh… neck, boobies, and inner thighs = A++++ plz kiss again.

[dimiblaisdale]

11, 17

11. Bad or petty habits:

Answered, so I’ll do …

10. Fears/Phobias:

Deathclaws is her biggest one. Dimi will put on a brave face in front of all the Wasteland has to offer, but Deathclaws put her into flight mode.

Oh, and losing more people she cares about/having to see other loved ones die in front of her.

17. Regrets:

She definitely carries some heavy regrets about not being able to save her dad, or a childhood best friend she had to watch die. In her mind, she could’ve saved them both, even though reality says no. 

There’s probably some about returning home to D.C. rather than settling at someplace along the way. Although BoS BS was happening before she left the Capital, it was a huge disappointment to find out what happened while she was away.

[dimiblaisdale]

11, 12, 14

11. Bad or petty habits:

This is pretty dependent on her mood or how people approach her, but she’ll punch first and ask questions later.

She’s likes to drink until she’s fall-over drunk.

Dimi is definitely un-ladylike, too. I picture her being pretty shameless about burping, farting, scratching, or spitting. haha

12. Grudges and vendettas: 

answered.

14. Ingrained habits/forces of habit: 

She’ll chew on her bottom lip or tug at her earrings. Playing with the zippers and buttons on her jacket is another; or the torn edges on her jeans.

[dimiblaisdale]

12, 13

12. Grudges and vendettas

The Enclave is the biggest one. While she helped all-but-stomp-out the East coast Enclave, she found that revenge did f-all for helping her get over the loss of her father. Revenge isn’t like how they portray in fiction

By the time her story ends in New Vegas, she’s got some pretty serious hate-on for the NCR, too. I’m kinda re-thinking things in that regard, but Knives definitely still has the bounty on his head, thus why she runs back to the East coast with him. 

13. What gets them flustered:

When people insult the jacket, more so now that she’s not in Butch’s company at this time. She feels it’s up to her to defend the Tunnel Snake pride now that she’s the only one around wearing the jacket. Glitzkrieg and I have talked about Knives being made an honorary Tunnel Snake, though I dunno if it was decided if he wears the snake on his coat or not. Anyway, she definitely feels a little lost without her bestie at her side.

Also, things not going right with scavenging or repairs. She’s the type to kick or hit uncooperative machinery out of frustration.
