Send 🏳️‍🌈 + A muse to get a headcanon about a facet of their queer identity

Could be their orientation, gander identity, how involved they are in their community, if they're poly, or a lot of other things

*NOTE: Anyone has a right to answer these as clearly or as vaguely as they'd like. Or, not at all! Whatever makes everyone most comfortable. <3 This meme is for nothing but fun and or character-building purposes. It's perfectly fine not to want to talk about some of these things, and everyone around you should accept and respect your boundaries IC or OOC.

How "open" are you to generally discussing the fact that you are transgender, or have gone through transitions? Are you casual about it, or are you a little more guarded with discussion?

What pronouns do you currently use? Have you ever considered trying any others?

What 'gendered' terms are you okay with? Which ones aren't you okay with? (Ex. King, Queen, dude, bro, etc...)

How old were you when you discovered that you were transgender, or wanted to transition? What lead to said discovery?

If you changed your name/alias, is there a meaning behind why you chose it?

Who was the first person you came out to? Did they accept it?

Have you gone through any transition procedures, or do you plan on it? What was it like if you have?

Have you been through any sort of voice therapy? What was that like?

Do you wear binders, or other undergarments regularly?

Do you actively take testosterone/estrogen? How do you prefer to take it if so?

What are some things you didn't quite expect with your transition? Maybe some things that didn't work out like you thought, or things that surprised you about the process?

Do you have a preferred "style" of clothing? Or do you just go with whatever you feel like wearing at the time?

Do you know anyone else who happens to be transgender or went through a transition process? Or perhaps someone who wants to?

Have your romantic orientation or your sexuality changed since you transitioned?

What would you tell someone who wants to transition? Maybe you would have some warnings, or general thoughts you'd like to share with them?

Has transitioning made you feel happier, or more comfortable? What was the best part? Are there any details that make you feel particularly "at home" in your body/identity?

IF SOMEONE BLOCKS YOU, LEAVE IT BE. your feelings regarding the matter is valid. your actions, however, should be to respect the boundary.

don't try reaching out to the individual, whether through a third party, an alt blog, or by any means.

don't be sneaky.

don't lurk on them.

don't change your alias and rebrand trying to accomplish the previous two points.

blocking is simply a boundary that is meant to be respected. and while it may hurt and have you wondering what you may have done, it's a means to curate one's dash and safe space. remember that and simply respect others.

practices the rpc needs to Collectively Get Back Into:

commenting on peoples’ posts, threads, art, graphics, etc. just telling them that you see it and that it looks good / is entertaining / etc. – because content creators can’t read your mind and as nice as it’d be for us to always serve ourselves with our work … realistically we will lose motivation to continue creating without some kind of support. if you like something then say so !!

sending each other’s muses messages about muses they’re talking to or characters from their canon and just generally getting actively involved in the narratives other people create & encouraging those people to discuss them

asking people random questions about their characters without fear that it’s too outlandish, provided the question isn’t invasive or rude

sending honest, heartfelt notes of positivity and making loveposts about other creators and the work they do. not chainmail, not lazy generic shit, but real kindness, in our Own Words

drawing people fanart of their characters / ships / OCs !! please !! really !! i don’t know when that EVER became something people grew too nervous to do !! most people ADORE it. even if it’s just fucking stick figures, man, i PROMISE you that taking the time and putting in the effort to show someone that the work they do inspired the work you do will make their whole fucking day

telling !! each other !! that !! we’re !! doing !! good !! jobs !!

being NICE to each other OPENLY and FOR NO REASON with NO PROMPTING

making sure other people feel included in discord servers, roleplay groups, groupchats, multi-way threads, art trades, events, and just. like. overall

acknowledging !! each other’s !! art !! metas !! threads !! worldbuilding !! and !! style !! PLEASE !! PEOPLE !! DONT !! KNOW !! YOU !! LIKE !! THEM !! IF !! YOU !! SAY !! NOTHING !!

and NOBODY with ANY goddamn sense is EVER going to react negatively to you Just Being Fucking Nice so stop worrying about doing that !! PLEASE !!!!!

listen man. while i’m on my lil PSA train? let’s talk about consent between rp partners – not just in regards to shipping / smut, but in regards to discussions and discussion topics in general.

not everyone is okay writing certain things, especially complex topics like smut, angst, and violence – and even if they are, they might not be in the mood to write it just that second, or with that character. this doesn’t necessarily mean they never want to write it with you; it just means that if they say, ‘hey, i’m not really feeling it right now,’ then they’re not really feeling it right now … and even if they do say something like ‘hey, i don’t really want to write [INSERT THING HERE] with [CHARACTER NAME(S)], then you should respectfully leave it alone and find something else to talk about.

there is nothing wrong with somebody not being in the mood for something. you wouldn’t want someone forcibly shoving a piece of food that you like, but don’t want right now, down your throat; if you said ‘no thank you,’ you’d expect them to just put down the fork and shrug it off, right? right! – and i know it’s a silly analogy, but if you apply the same logic to a situation where someone doesn’t feel like writing something particular Right That Second, it makes a lot of sense.

so let’s talk about the DO’s and DON’T’s of reacting to somebody (politely and respectfully) declining the thing you want to discuss.

DO :

“that’s okay! we can talk about [THING] some other time, if you’re feeling up to it.”

“hey, that’s fine. we can talk about [DIFFERENT THING] instead.”

“for future reference, do you not want to write [THING] in general, or just not right now? i want to know so i won’t bring it up again if you just don’t like it, period.”

“it’s fine, i like you for more than just writing [THING].”

“of course! your safety / comfort / happiness comes first.”

“thanks for letting me know you aren’t feeling it! you can always tell me if you don’t feel up to doing / writing something.”

DON’T :

“but you like writing [THING] !”

“does this mean you don’t care about me / my character(s)?”

“does this mean you hate our ship?”

“but i saw you writing / plotting [THING] with [OTHER PERSON] !”

“oh, so you don’t want to talk to me anymore?”

“you’re impossible to talk to.”

“if you won’t write [THING], i’ll find somebody who will.”

“this is why people hate plotting with you.”

notice: the ‘do’ category expresses understanding, empathy, and sometimes a polite offer to continue the thought if/when it’s convenient – without pressuring or guilting the other person into feeling like they HAVE to continue it. this encourages, overall, deeper trust and more open communication between you and your partner. the ‘don’t’ category, on the other hand, is hugely accusatory and manipulative – these responses center around heaping guilt or anxiety onto your partner’s shoulders and making them feel like your OOC and/or IC relationship(s) will be compromised or replaced if they fail to obey you.

remember that this is a PARTNERSHIP between you and ANOTHER HUMAN BEING WITH AUTONOMY AND FEELINGS, not just a log with a chatbot set on catering to your every want & need. your roleplay partners have their own lives and their own interests; nobody owes you anything, and nobody should feel like they have to compromise their own safety / comfort just to keep you happy.

don’t be pushy, don’t be manipulative, don’t be cruel. remember that these are people, so treat them that way.

Not "The Character did nothing wrong" or "The Character is irredeemably awful" but a secret third thing: The Character may display moments of deep love & compassion, may even have a strong sense of ethics, and may also be capable of brutal cruelty that is irreconcilable with those traits. The constant tension between the different sides of The Character's nature is exactly what makes them compelling, and attempting to reduce them down to simply "a terrible person" or "innocent & misunderstood" is missing the point of the questions a media with nuanced characters is asking you to consider

Status ailment starters. Send a number for a starter where my muse is afflicted with one of the below! Add "+reverse" for your muse to be the afflicted instead. Or, send "status" for me to pick one of the below using a random number generator. Severity is up to the mun of the afflicted muse — while some of these are silly or fantastical in nature, some could be played as more realistic. Be mindful of triggers! (Statuses are yoinked from various sources, with some overlap. If you recognize any specific ones: shhhhh)

Poison - Receiver has come across a toxin of some sort and is looking rather pallid.

Paralysis - Receiver has been stunned into a state of being partially or completely unable to move.

Burned - Receiver has come across extremely high temperatures and suffered burns, or is otherwise overheating.

Frozen - Receiver is chilled to the bone and needs to warm up to be able to move or do much of anything effectively again.

Confusion - Receiver is dizzy and disoriented. Up is down, left is right, friend is foe...

Sleep - Receiver is exhausted and simply can't keep their eyes open any longer...

Nightmare - Receiver finds themselves in the clutches of bad dreams.

Infatuation - Whatever their feelings were before, receiver suddenly finds themselves absolutely smitten with a) sender, or b) a muse of the asker's choice. (Involving a third party requires consent from all muns.)

Gravity - Like metal to a magnet, receiver finds they can no longer get far off the ground or away from a particular spot. Flying muses are grounded.

Bind - Receiver finds themselves bound, whether by monster, trap, or some other apparatus.

Darkness - Receiver's sight has either been diminished or is completely gone (up to mun of afflicted muse).

Silence - Receiver can no longer make a sound, impeding their ability to use any ability that requires vocalization (e.g. spellcasting, sound-based attacks, shouting ultimate attack names).

Debrave - Something in inhibiting receiver's physical attack prowess.

Defaith - Something is inhibiting receiver's magical prowess.

Deprotect - Something is causing receiver to take more damage from incoming attacks.

Smokescreen - Something is inhibiting receiver's accuracy.

Disease - Something is impeding receiver's ability to recover from whatever malady is afflicting them.

Amnesia - Something has caused receiver to forget how to use certain skills. Or, per mun's discretion, maybe muse has forgotten something(s) non-combat related and even more important...

Toad - Receiver is a frog now! And you know how the fairytale goes...

Afraid - Receiver is paralyzed in a more metaphorical sense. Something has them so afraid they cannot act.

Cold - Luckily, it seems like receiver has nothing more than the common cold. Unluckily, receiver has the common cold.

Nauseous - Receiver is sick to their stomach and either refuses to eat or can't keep anything down.

Homesick - Receiver misses home so badly they can't do or think anything else :(

Hunger - Receiver is ravenous to the point of dizziness. They need a good meal in them, stat.

Thirst - Receiver is parched and starting to feel the effects of dehydration.

Oxygen - Something is either making it difficult for receiver to breathe, or straight up suffocating them.

Exhaustion - Nothing remains of receiver's stamina. They simply can't take any further action and might collapse...

Rage - Something has provoked receiver into a blind rage. They may hit harder for it, but attacking with reckless abandon may prove dangerous on both ends of the fight.

Brainwashed - It seems receiver's mind is firmly within the enemy's grasp. Hopefully something can bring them back to themselves... (Optional: sender could be the brainwasher, but this requires communication and consent between muns.)

Dealer's choice - Receiver gets to pick from any of the above. (If sent with +reverse, sender is at receiver's mercy...)

PSA: Please never be afraid to send asks.

We've all been there. We open someone's ask box to send an anonymous message to a muse you want to see on the dashboard. You get ready to type... But nothing comes to mind. You, yourself, sort of want to get asks as well and start some dashboard commentary, but your mind is at a blank.

Asks are a great jumping point for writers who aren't feeling like writing a thread / ic post on it's own. Here's some suggestions for what types of asks you can send to muses when you can't think of much;

Ask the muse about a recent muse interaction. For instance, go 'Mario, how could you let Bowser talk to you like that?'

Pry at a muse about some internal narration they had. Go 'Mario, why are you doubting yourself?'

Ask an everyday question! Saunter in and go 'Mario, how's the weather today?'

The worst thing someone can do is not answer something since they can't think of a good reply, but the notion is always appreciated. If you ever wonder if it's okay to send an ask, you can always go 'hey mun, is it okay if I inform muse of x or y?' and go from there. Foster your niche community. Do unto others what you would want for yourself.

PSA: TUMBLR'S AUTOMOD SUCKS, HOW TO VIEW 'MATURE CONTENT'.

If you've noticed many completely SFW posts being marked as 'potentially mature content', or even entire blogs being marked as mature. This is theorized to be because tumblr has needed to double down on labeling stuff for the iOS app to still be allowed on the app store, but while people are waiting in limbo for someone to unmark their content, here's how you can still view these posts. This can only be done through desktop or web browser.

Click on the gear icon for account settings.

Switch on 'show mature content' in settings, under 'content labels'. You can also blur it just to be safe if you wish, but it's not required. If your blog gets marked as mature, file in a ticket, as you will be given a shortcut to do so under blog visibility settings.
