it's the sun in your eyes

the story begins with a bit of loneliness

[hopegained]

HELLO AND WELCOME to hopegained, a st.ar w.ars oc set in the sequels written by en! he/they, 29, gmt+8. est. 2017.   private and selective. no personals allowed except with a rp sideblog. 21+ only. rules, verses & basic info | “wookiee.pedia” article | promo | memes | interest tracker other blogs: @hopebore @horriferae ​ @savesgalaxy​ @pastkilld​ @saviornot​​   

mobile friendly rules:

1. First and foremost, hi! I’m En, 28 years old, Southeast Asian (GMT+8), and a full-time student with ADHD. I won’t always be available to write and am very slow to get to it, but you can always chat or plot with me on d.iscord or through IMs. 2. I will no longer be following blogs first* due to the nature of his character. On the flip side, when you initiate the follow, I will take it as you actually being interested in writing with me and understanding that he is intrinsically related to existing characters. That’s not everyone’s thing and that’s okay! *unless we're already mutuals across different blogs. 3. Dark topics including, but not limited to, violence, trauma, depression, and war (obviously) are gonna be ever-present. As for spicy/smutty things, they’ll be tagged as ‘nsft.’ and I will ONLY write them with muns I’m already familiar with and put under read more or on dis.cord. 4. I tag triggers using 'trigger tw’ and ‘trigger cw’. I don’t have triggers myself. I won’t hesitate to block you if you're homophobic/transphobic/islamophobic/racist. This is non-negotiable and frankly, you can leave if you don’t agree. 5. If your posts are untagged and uncut, there’s a high chance I won’t follow back. It’s nothing personal, I just don’t like a clogged dash. 6. Basic rules on godmodding apply. I will ask for your permission regarding any decision that may involve manipulating, killing, or maiming your muse(s), so I expect the same courtesy from you. On that note, he is powerful despite his incomplete training, so you can taunt or hurt him as much as you’d like, but don’t be surprised when he retaliates. 7. My formatting is just single small text, bold and italics sometimes with 90x90 icons. If you find it hard to read, please let me know! I’ll adjust accordingly. While we’re still on that subject, I find posts that are (typed) like this (with double spacing) distracting and straining on my eyes. I may remove that type of aesthetic on my end when necessary. 8. Plotting and memes are the best ways to interact with me. They don’t have an expiry date, so send them in whenever! 9. I generally have mains and affiliates through extensive plotting and connections, but I won’t ever do exclusives. Idk, it’s just never been my thing. 10. And lastly, I love ships, including but not limited to: romantic, platonic, familial, you get the idea. I’m here for more interesting dynamics! There must be chemistry of course.

Have a good day and let's write ❤

PSA: THREAD REPLIES ARE NOW THEIR OWN POSTS.

For those unaware, tumblr staff has (probably been forced to by shareholders) updated so that each post is it's own post with it's own notes. Threads are still connected and can still be trimmed and reblogged, however each roleplay reply will have it's own set of notes (likes, reblogs, etc.). While it doesn't seem like the RPC will be affected compared to many of the other communities on tumblr, please be aware to check the notes of the previous thread reply to make sure you didn't miss anything, and use the drafting system to bookmark your WIP replies if you haven't already.

How to Fix Underwriting

1. Slow down at emotionally important moments.

Big emotions need space to land. If a scene feels rushed, pause the plot briefly to show how the moment affects the character.

2. Add reactions, not explanations.

Instead of explaining what a character feels, show it through physical responses, hesitation, or small actions that reveal emotion naturally.

3. Ground every scene in the senses.

If a scene feels thin, add one or two sensory details—sound, texture, smell, or temperature—to make the moment feel lived-in.

4. Let thoughts interrupt action.

A line of internal thought can deepen a scene without slowing it too much. Thoughts show stakes, fear, longing, or conflict beneath the action.

5. Expand consequences, not events.

You don’t need more things to happen—you need to show what matters. Focus on how events change relationships, decisions, or self-perception.

6. Strengthen setting where emotion peaks.

The environment should echo or contrast the emotion of the scene. Setting is not decoration—it’s emotional reinforcement.

7. Add specific details instead of general ones.

Underwriting often relies on vague language. Swap “they argued” for one sharp line of dialogue or a specific breaking point.

8. Let dialogue breathe.

Short dialogue exchanges without pauses can feel flat. Add beats—silence, gestures, interruptions—to give the conversation weight.

9. Show transitions between scenes.

If scenes jump too quickly, readers feel disoriented. A brief transition helps establish time, mood, and emotional continuity.

10. Clarify stakes early in the scene.

If readers don’t know what can be lost, scenes feel empty. Make sure the character wants something specific and fears losing it.

11. Use the “what are they feeling right now?” check.

After each major beat, ask what emotion is dominant in that moment. If it’s missing on the page, the scene is likely underwritten.

12. Expand scenes that feel “too clean.”

If a scene resolves too neatly or quickly, it probably needs more tension. Messy emotions and unresolved feelings add depth.
