Kiya from Kiri

independent naruto oc blog.

[kiyafromkiri]

Welcome!

This is being pinned to help you all out in finding this around the tumblr. I’m excited to have you here and hope you all enjoy the read! I’ll be adding more as time goes by.

ABOUT KIYA - Will give you a quick rundown on the character.

DRABBLE SERIES - Writings about the character, from parents, to teammates, personality, etc. It’s a tag that I’ll write things about the main verse of this character.

ROUGH TIMELINE - For figuring out canon-era and whatnot, it’s a rough idea of Kiya and her age throughout the series.

ABOUT THE WRITER - About the mun, writer, me, etc. It also has rules and whatnot that you might want to check out.

CURRENT MAJOR VERSES

A multi verse, multi shipping blog, it might be tricky to navigate or get a hold of what’s happening. Here’s a bit of a summary of what verses I’m currently writing in at the moment. I’ll update this as I go along to make it easier for you to read.

Canon-Type

Generally speaking this will follow the rough timeline for canon-era threads. Think the timeline of the original show/books/eras etc. Things happening will might reference major events. Forth War, missions taken, encounters with shinobi that may or may not be from Kiri, it’s happening here.

Saving Kiri aka Mangetsu Lives

In which Kiya somehow, someway, by the gods or fate, ends up taking missions with Hōzuki Mangetsu (shout out to @eyecanfixthat​ and Tai’s amazing writing skills), and it snowballs into something more. From calling a certain Kijin no Sairai a pretty boy to discussions that might tip just to the right side of treason to a near-death experience and a kiss that someone used to stop an argument, it’s amazing how one little thing can make waves.

Roomies? Roomies! (And Something More!), the modern au

Once again, Tai and I created an AU in which Kiya and Tai’s Shisui & Mangetsu end up living in a house together. Tiny dancer girl meets workaholic engineer and ornithology student for a slice-of-life series of hysterical proportions (also known as “Shisui, what the fuck are you wearing?” “... it’s laundry day...” or “How come you have fifty plus blankets?” “The better question is why don’t I have more?” or “Mangetsu made stew.” “It’s very meaty.”)

From Kiri To Konoha

Kiya’s uncle flees Kiri towards the end of the Third War, taking a tiny Kiya with him. He dies in teh process, taking out the shinobi that would’ve killed them both, leaving a little Kiya to make her way in the world alone. Somehow, someway, she stumbles into the Fire Country boarders and is taken to Konoha, ending up as an academy student, then shinobi of the Hidden Leaf. People still get stabbed though. It’s a habit. Also known as “Kiya, no biting.” “Kiya, yes biting.”

Discord Thread Tracker Bot

Do you roleplay in a group server on Discord? Do you wish you had a quick way to keep track of all your threads in various channels? If that's you, please allow me to introduce Thread Tracker, affectionately nicknamed Titi! This is a handy little bot created by my friends and Discord co-mods, @rainofthestorm (programming) and @soltrek (idea and artwork). We've been using it in our server, and it's been incredible for helping us stay on top of our writing.

Thread Tracker allows you to register and track certain channels in a Discord server as roleplay threads, and can generate a list of all your tracked threads along with who last replied. If the last poster wasn't you, that thread will be bolded, letting you see at a glance what you owe. You can also sort your threads into categories based on your needs.

You can even create a to-do list for things like starters you still need to write, plots you need to work out, or anything else that you may need a reminder for!

A couple more notes about Thread Tracker:

It works on an individual server level, meaning it will not be aware of any tracked threads in a different server.

It works with both standard Discord channels and forum posts.

It works with Tupperbox! However, you will need to register the names of your Tuppers as muses with the bot so that it correctly recognizes when a thread is your turn or not.

Thread Tracker is now available on Top.gg!

Add Thread Tracker Discord Bot | The #1 Discord Bot List

Ever had the problem of needing to track who replied last in a channel, for writing purposes or otherwise? Well, Thread Tracker is here!

Feel free to add it to your Discord servers and take it for a spin! Once Titi is invited, send tt!help to see a list of commands and start setting things up. If you have any questions, concerns, or feedback, please reach out to Rain or to me -- I'll pass it along to her.

Don’t put too much Weight on RP.

Take a break. RP should not dictate your life. If you find it dictating your mental health, it’s likely a time to take a step back. RP is a hobby. It can be frustrating if people aren’t replying to memes/starters/etc. But remember timezones are a thing, sometimes other people aren’t in the best mental state themselves, sometimes people are too busy IRL to watch the dash, sometimes they have writer’s block. There will be other days. There will be other interactions. People still care about you and your muse(s). Try again later, there is no shame in reblogging stuff from yourself.  But do not guilt people into interacting with you.

At the end of the day RP is a hobby. We’re here to have fun. Don’t let it dictate everything.

Furisode, late Edo period (1789-1868), 1801/1868, Japan.   Gift of Gaylord Donnelley in memory of Frances Gaylord Smith, 1991.637. This furisode, a long-sleeved garment worn by children and unmarried women on special occasions, belonged to a family whose crest was the tachibana, the flower of the Mandarin orange. Made of rinzu (a soft, luxurious silk), it was probably used as an uchikake, an outer coat worn without an obi, which would have interrupted the flow of the patterning. A blossoming plum tree embroidered with gold and white silk thread spreads its branches from hem to shoulder. The red fabric is woven in a sagayata pattern of key-fret lozenges, over which individual orchids or chrysanthemums are scattered. The carefully delineated picture of a tree shows the influence of Western art on Japanese design. Needlework typical of this period was used to realistically portray the contours of the tree trunk. First the edges of the trunk were padded with a heavy thread; then, over this padding, gold-wrapped thread was couched with red silk thread..  AIC

I don’t remember where I got this image from, all I know it’s a website that has a article talking about Japanese desserts, I saved it for art reference.

(Edit: Apparently there’s a tagging limit so I couldn’t tag every dessert in this image, fucking Tumblr -_-*)

Writing Body Language

How to Improve your writing

This is something that happens every day in your life. A shift of your eyebrow in skepticism, or the way your lip may twitch to a half smile cause you’re trying not to laugh. These behaviors are vital for writing in character, because not only do the allow you to visually see what is happening but it is also reaffirming whatever emotion your character is showing.

So why should you write it?

Much of human communication is non-verbal which means you need to also translate this non-verbal reaction in a post. It allows you to greatly enhance the emotions of another character and always another person to ‘visually’ see how they feel in a post. Most of all, this will add depth and volume to your post to make it feel more real. IT will make your character feel like a human instead of just another fictional person you look at from above.

Below you will find a list different type of emotions and what sort of body language can be exhibited to them.

Three ways to accent an action.

When writing about emotions, there are different ways to verbally write them out. Each one is unique in their own way, allowing you to show more about the emotion.

Emphasize the Emotion. But doing this, you are expressing both the emotion and the body language. We’ll use a simple example. It’s short and simple yet you can sense he is happy. John felt so happy that he was humming a tune while walking down the hall.

Complicate the Emotion. Sometimes, even when you are feeling one emotion, deep down rooted underneath the facade of it all, there is actually an underlining emotion they feel. This is something you have to truly express otherwise no one will know. John felt so happy that he was humming a tune while walking down the hall. However, it was obvious by the way his nose crinkled that he was disgusted by the actions beforehand. Instead, John covered it up by appearing pleased today.

Contradict the Emotion. This is a little different than complicate. Contradicting means that you are claiming one thing when in fact its the other. In many ways, this has a variety of uses, from inner depth of the truth to what you see in person, or someone creating a wall. It could be considered a lie, but when is anything that easy? John felt so happy that he was humming a tune while walking down the hall. In truth, once he was in the classroom, his shoulders slumped and a pout crossed his lips when no one was around, showing just how displeased he was with the situation.

Remember that you do not always have to contradict or complicate anything. Sometimes all you need to do is emphasize and that will be just fine. You don’t always have to have an underlining complicated for an emotion to make it more enhanced.

Do be afraid to use the Thesaurus to also improve an emotion. Such things as “happy” is a nice emotional word, but think of how much more powerful it is when you heard some is “overjoyed” or “content.” She how these emotions matched up with a body language can give two different styles of happiness? Mix and match to find what works best for your character at the time.
