//It’s been nearly two months since I have done any kind of substantial posting on any of my blogs apart from starters and posting pictures here and there. Unfortunately, this radio silence was not something that I chose. Instead, it was something that I was forced to do.
To make a long story short, I was catfished by another roleplayer in the community. In the beginning, I didn’t pay too much attention to the negative aspects of this person. I thought that they were a good rider writer they had many fine friends in the larger community. The first sign that something was off when they would like pictures of Jessica’s mother (Annabella Sciorra). Those were screen caps from The Sopranos and other things that I had reblogged. I can’t say why my skin was crawling when they did that, but it was.
After that, I was approached by them in my IMs. They complimented me. They told me that I was a wonderful writer and that they had a plot they wanted to do. I told them that I would be more than happy to talk about it, so they asked me for my Discord.
At this point, I really should have known better because most people that I’ve only known a couple of days wouldn’t ask for my Discord. However, I went along with it.
Anyway, they sprung the plot on me. It was an F/F AU ripped from Tarzan with my character (Jessica Jones) being Jane (ha!) and their character being Tarzan. They were insistent that I write this. They sent me the clips. I went along with it and wrote a starter and then I shut everything down. Again, something had made my skin crawl.
The Tarzan / Jane AU made me uncomfortable because of what it said about Jessica. Namely, that she was so powerless that she needed someone to rescue her. Additionally, this AU implied that Jessica and this other character would be romantic partners which they have never been in the comics even though they are best friends.
Then, on top of everything, I found that the person who had been presenting himself as female was actually a man and do you know what the worst part of it all was? This person was fetishizing lesbians like nobody’s business.
Needless to say, this experience left a bitter taste in my mouth and traumatized me to the point where I cannot come on tumblr anymore without being reminded of what happened to me. Of course, some of it was my fault because I had let my guard down and allowed somebody in when I should have been far more cautious.
Anyway, I’m writing this and putting it on the dash to let you know why I haven’t been here and haven’t been writing as much as I would like
tl;dr: I was catfished by another member of the rpc and I cannot write here because it has really fucked with me mentally.
