also. i’m begging you, if you’re in a group roleplay, i’m fucking begging you to care more about platonic dynamics. i don’t have it in me to justify this any further and frankly this isn’t something that should be even worth of a justification because platonic dynamics make the whole world go round - they’re just as important, tragic, beautiful, strong, complex, blissful, wholesome, sad, etc as romantic dynamics. if you’re part of a group roleplay it’s your fucking responsibility as a member (and even more as an admin) to value them and give them as much thought and importance as you do to romantic ones. if you only join group roleplays for “shipping” you don’t belong in group roleplays and there’s absolutely NO ROOM for discussion in this.
