[ageofsailmasterlist]

Age of Sail masterlists are not often in date as of these days or fall inactive after a small period of time. It is the hope of the admins here, Calico and Thatch, to create an unbiased, regularly updated masterlist, that not only lists blogs, but actively promotes them with a regular queue and provides resources for them. 

If you would like to be on the masterlist, reblog this post, specifying the fandom(s), character(s) and whether or not they are canon or original characters. If you could also list whether or not you are a multimuse (for the list organisation purposes) it would be appreciated.

You can find the masterlist here.

so I know I haven’t been here for a while now - sadly Charles’ muse is a lot harder to summon than my other blogs so it makes it difficult to get around to his drafts at the moment

but

I want to change that because I do still love writing for him, and I love our little community, so I’m going to work towards clearing some of the drafts here. however, I’m going to have to drop some threads in order to do that. it probably won’t be many, and I’ll put up a list of the ones I’m dropping and tag the necessary people once I’ve made the decision, but it’s for my own sanity

I can predict now that they’ll probably be ones that don’t really have a set direction (therefore harder to write for) or ones like the text threads bc I have a thousand of them lurking in the drafts and as much as I love them, a few do fall into the former category of ‘no direction’. reminder that we can always start new things later. if we only have one or two threads, don’t worry, I’m not like to drop them! and it does not mean, whatsoever, that I don’t want to rp with you anymore if I do drop something!

I miss being Charles so I’ll do whatever I need to in order to be more active on this blog. thank you all for being patient!

[princesircastic-archive]

small PSA on activity for the next week or so

so I’ve recently just had the surgery I’ve been waiting 11 months for and whilst everything went well etc etc, obviously I’m not running at my usual function speed and at the moment I’m spending most of my time in bed 

this is likely to continue for the first week of recovery (and I’m on morphine too, so I’ll be somewhat spaced out for a while) so if I do manage to get any drafts done, it’ll be slow going, so I can only ask for more patience (and forgiveness if anything I do write doesn’t entirely make sense)

any activity is likely to be on here or at @ruthlessresolution, so you can find me at either blog!

creeps back to post a Munday from the recent con, featuring @blacksailsandredhair as Anne and @jackrxckham as Jack. 

Charles would be a terrible king

ℒ (invxne. you knew it was coming)

send me a ℒ and my i’ll write a love letter my muse would write about/to yours!  |  Accepting

My Captain, 

Though I do not expect you to ever glimpse upon this page, I felt obligated to commit to written record the tragedy of our situation, in case something untoward were to happen to me in the absence of our communication. I would not be able to contend with myself nor rest easy if I blinked out of existence allowing you to believe that the emotions I held towards you had altered in the slightest. They shall never, of that I am certain, for you have become something irreplaceable to me.

Create 11 new ones (optional, you can use the previous)

Tag 11 people (optional as well)

My 11 Answers

1. What drew you to Tumblr Roleplaying?

I was following a few Tolkien blogs and decided to make my own and it was just one long downhill slope from there tbh.

2. Did you RP somewhere else prior to Tumblr? Where else?

Email, a couple of IM services.

3. What is your favorite part of RPing?

Exploring the characters beyond what we’re given in canon (which can sometimes be seriously lacking), and creating wonderful AUs and worlds with some truly fantastic and talented people~

4. What is your least favorite part of RPing?

The drama. The pointless hate.

5. Any former muses you miss writing?

Logan. Logan. I miss my grumpy Canadian mutant so much.

6. What’s your favorite thing about your muse?

He takes no shit from anyone. I can relate. BUT ALSO HIS LOYALTY like c’mon he pretends he doesn’t care a lot of the time but Charles’ loyalty runs deep and it shows.

7. Do you think that if you and your muse were to meet, you would get along?

I... honestly don’t know? I mean we’re similar in some aspects so maybe?

8. Is there any genre or setting of Roleplay that you cannot stand?

A/B/O and everything that comes with it. I don’t get it. At all. Nope. 

9. Do you ever reread threads? Which ones?

Sometimes, aye. I’ll often reread things if it’s been a while since the last reply, too, just to refresh my memory.

10. Is there any particular plot or dynamic which you haven’t yet had the chance to RP that you want to? What is it?

I don’t think so? At least across all my blogs. My threads are fairly diverse in setting and theme tbh.

11. What are your favorite books?

The Lord of the Rings. The Picture of Dorian Gray. The Chronicles of Narnia. And a whole bunch of crime novels tbh I live for them.

It took him several moments to track the waving of her hand and focus on the gleam at her finger. It was another couple of moments until his hungover, sleep-addled brain realised what he was looking at, and what it meant. Fuck. Fuck, fuck, fuck.

“Slow the fuck down.” He sighed, shoving her hand out of his face. “You think I want this? God, you’re a fucking nightmare, Guthrie. The last thing I want is to fucking marry you.” Glaring down at his own hands, he inspected the plain ring on his own finger, and tried to piece together the blank spaces in his memory.

“Yeah, I definitely planned this. Please. If I wanted to marry anyone you are certainly not at the top of my list. Get over yourself, Guthrie. You’re not that important to me.”

A Matter of Importance

[Text: Charles] I wouldn’t hurry to do so, it was only a momentary lapse, my speech is returned. 

[Text: Charles] Well I would hope so… it would be somewhat concerning if you saw it as a negative attribute to our bond. 

Frowning at his phone, Jack wondered why Charles seemed so irate with him, and lamented - not for the first time - on the lack of facial expressions and non-verbal cues texting involved for they made up a good eighty percent of his conversations with the other man and it was much harder to discern Charles’ intentions without out them. 

[Text: Charles] Perhaps, in this instance, it might offer greater understanding if you were to clarify your meaning in plainer terms. 

[text; Jack] A sad day for all.

[text; Jack] Plainer terms? Alright.

[text; Jack] You’re a fucking oblivious idiot.

It was frustrating, to say the least, that the usually perceptive Jack Rackham seemed utterly blind to the affections of his friend. Granted, he wasn’t the best at expressing himself, especially in such delicate and private matters, but even so - there was surely a hint or two in there somewhere.

[invxne]

A Craving For Connections

@jackrxckham | continued

The moment he saw Jack’s quick smile, he knew the perceptive bastard had caught him out. Lifting his chin defiantly, he scoffed at Jack’s words as if they meant nothing, were nothing, one shoulder jerking into a casual shrug that didn’t quite meet its mark. “You must be fucking drunk, Jack. Ain’t nothing I’m jealous of here.” A blatant lie, and one easily picked apart by the man infamously too clever for his own good, but it was now a matter of principle to keep denying it.

His shoulders tensed at Jack’s bold interrogation, and had it been anyone else, they might not have left his cabin alive. As it was, Jack could get away with a great deal - including, it seemed, this. “You don’t threaten me, Jack.” He hissed out, stepping closer until he was right in Jack’s face. “Or your woman.” It was, he realised too late, too much of an answer in itself. He wasn’t threatened - which left only desire.

[invxne]

Too Much To Ask

@jackrxckham | continued

Charles had practically tuned Jack out with moments of him opening his mouth. It wasn’t disrespect that had borne this habit of his - had Jack been on a topic that provided sound advice he would have listened intently to every word, even if he believed nine out of ten of them to be entirely unnecessary. However, when it came to complaints from his quartermaster that would have no bearing on the running of the ship, he had a tendency to let his mind wander.

“You do know who you’re talking to, right?” He smirked over at him, judging the extended pause in speech to be an end to his rant. He tipped the bottle back once more, taking another hearty swig, never once breaking his gaze with Jack’s. “Look, I don’t cause the fights, Jack. I just finish them.”

❝ I’ll start carin’ what people think when I am six feet under. ❞ (invxne)

@invxne​

Flint lets out a disbelieving, rough sort of bark of laughter, a brief one, but it is honest in a strange, unexpected sort of way, and under the circumstances it feels oddly out of place. 

It isn’t that he is surprised at the other’s statement — it is hardly news to him that Charles Vane plays by his own rules with no regard for what others may think of it. 

It is the fact that he, of all people, stirred a memory in him, one that struck a chord and now echoes in his mind, a reminder of those that once brought onto him the same lesson.

          —Are you happy, Lieutenant?

          —Happy? In what regard?

          —In my experience, there is an inverse relationship between the degree of one’s           happiness and the concern one suffers for what the neighbours think.

He looks to the side then, at Vane, and though they are now reluctant allies at best, his gaze in this moment is not entirely unkind.

“What people think is not the issue in itself,” he speaks then, slowly, shifting his weight from one elbow to the other. “To control it, however, to harness its power when it is needed — that can prove a powerful asset, if one learns how to wield it.”

[invxne]

The bark of laughter was a surprise – for up till now Flint had only ever shown a varied array of anger, mistrust and contempt for him. Charles wasn't entirely sure how to react to this odd, bemused sound.

Flint seemed entirely somewhere else for a moment, and it wasn't until he shifted to look at him that Vane was sure he was even paying him any attention. He nearly scoffed at Flint's words, ready to disregard them entirely as was his habit, but instead he found himself taking them in.

"I have all the powerful assets I need." Charles gave a faintly dismissive shake of his head. "That's more your thing, Flint." It was, at least, an acknowledgement of Flint's often unique methods, rather than a dismissal.
