rp tips and tricks

1) xkit. if you don’t have this i honestly don’t know how you’re surviving on tumblr. there’s so many add-ons that they have that make everything about rping so so so much easier. you can find them under new xkit. don’t forget, the old xkit is no longer working so make sure you use the new one!

2) threadtracker. if you’re like me, once you draft something to reply about it, you forget it’s even there. so threadtracker is a lifesaver honestly. and  now they even had a quickadd browser extension that makes everything even easier. you just pull up your thread, click the little button on your browser and it pulls it right up for you to type in your name of choice and voila all done. you can even stick on starters that you owe, or even replies that you need to do for starters made for you. easy peasy!

3) sessionbox. this is mostly for people with multiple blogs. this little fancy extension allows you to be logged into multiple blogs all in one window. so no more having 500 chrome profiles to be on all your blogs at once. this lets you have them in one window with multiple tabs to make things so much easier. you can name them, give them different colors, and all that good stuff to separate them. it’s honestly a definitely lifesaver too.

4) the email trick. so a lot of people probably know this one. but it’s a quick little trick for making new blogs. instead of having to worry about making a million different email addresses and remembering them all for every single blog you have, you can do a nice little shortcut. all you have to do is take whatever email address you want and add +whatever to it. so, example: [email protected] being your base email and say you’re making a blog for a character named fred, you would make it [email protected] or something along those lines. then you can definitely keep up with the email. and yes, it does still work with the yahoo junk too.

5) stylish. this is a nifty little ad-on that is somewhat similar to xkit, in that you can change the way your dash looks. i have a few things added to it to make my eyestrain less than it normally is with brighter colors tumblr has set up on here. they have a ton of things for tumblr too that you can do to change it. just do a tumblr search and see what they have that you can use.

6) rph blogs and musings blogs. honestly there’s a ton of them. dear-indies is one of my go to blogs for a lot of things. you can find icons, manips, tutorials, and masterlists all over their blog. (masterlists are a great way to get started in a new fandom as well, fyi.) doing a few searches on here will bring up plenty of them if you just take a few moments to look. there’s a ton of resources out there for rpers.

7) f.lux. if you have any eye problems like me then sometimes screens are way too bright no matter how low you have the brightness set. so f.lux is this nifty little thing that dims your screen and gives it a bit of a yellow tint based on the time. it helps make whites not so bright and glaring in your face, especially at night. you can set it up however you want it, to lessen the tint or make it darker. if you’re prone to migraines from screen brightness this thing is amazing. and you can always just switch it off when you’re working on something color sensitive like icons or things like that!

8) mycopper. if you make your own icons and such, but don’t have the time or means to cap your own episodes, this thing is pretty great (i’m actually using it right now). it downloads entire photo galleries in a few minutes. all you do is download it (safe download), go to the gallery you want to download (make sure you’re actually inside the gallery and not in the gallery list), copy and paste the link into my copper (usually has the word thumbnail inside it), choose where you want to save it, and download! it’s really great and definitely easier than going through and saving one by one (which i used to do).

everything above has a link to something that’s either a download or the website for more information except the email trick. that’s all i can think of right now. i’ve been around for awhile and definitely have my dash and rp blogs set up in ways that are easy to navigate and work with thanks to all these awesome resources. ♥

Shizuo in front of her seemed rather… Aggravated. In once in a blue moon has this usually occurred. How should she play this out? Holding her PDA in position and had her fingertips stiff, the dullahan started off with a gentle approach.

「 Shizuo. 」

She released a slight black huff of smoke from underneath her helmet as the transporter continued to type in a rather fast speed as she was trying to get a point across equivalent to how the ex-bartender got his point across. But with typing. 

「 You act like I don’t know this. You want him dead, I know. But you shouldn’t overexert yourself. If you’re weak, you’re never gonna achieve that you want to achieve. Remember that. 」     

“Tsk... ‘Don’t hurt yourself this, don’t hurt yourself that.’ If I want him dead, I’m gonna make sure he’s good as dead.” He looked away for a moment before he met eye contact. “But I’ll be careful not to kill myself in the process, Celty. I’ll promise you that.” The blond had already known that he had a close friend that, in fact, wasn’t even human, completely worried about his safety as Shizuo had a tendency of being a risk-taker. “I’m also gonna make sure that none of his damn blood gets on this bartender outfit. Kasuka got me this and I’m planning on keeping it as clean as ever.”

@shizuiisms

🐭     was this man okay? She’s seen him stop by the restaurant before , even speaking to Simon , the child even knew his name , what he was capable of , but she didn’t know that he was able to get hurt like he was , the only way she saw the blood was from the illumination of the street lights he passed under when she continued to follow him. She even looks around to see if that other man was with him. It seemed like he was on his own tonight.  Small hands pull to her chest and she makes the big decision to speak up before he turned that corner. 

  “ Hey! “ she called out , “ are you okay? Do you need help? “ 

[shizuiisms]

How did this even happen anyway? One minute he was just walking and another moment, his arm and his abdomen are just bleeding with overflowing streams of crimson trickling onto the sidewalk. Slowly walking as he felt nothing but a sensation of a needle coursing throughout his body, Shizuo looked back as he saw a young woman ask if he was okay. “Y-yeah. I’m fine.” He murmured out a raspy sound emitted from his voice.  “Ya don’t need to worry about someone like me.”

[shizuiisms]

nyanzaya:

(🐈) They didn’t need to explain themselves. Iza knew how deep the hate went; though, he never took part in it. He had only seen and heard their game of cat and mouse. Truthfully, seeing Izaya get chased by Shizuo almost made him jealous. He wanted to get chased too! Though, he had his own person who would do that without question. Iza nodded at their words, listening to them he would have to disagree with Shizuo being called a monster.

He started to munch on the cone of his ice cream before taking a moment to speak. “Well, for what it’s worth, I don’t see you as this ‘monster’. You are so painstakingly human it almost hurts to see it sometimes. I can understand your need to keep the air clean and I’d say you are doing a great job, Sweetheart. You keep up that good work~ I’m counting on you.” The feline chimed happily, being honest, people to him were the monsters. He had seen and been through horrible things, but he couldn’t hate humans forever, he needed company and the best company to have were people. It was easy to tolerate them at least. 

With their comment that he smelled like a cat, Iza meowed. “Nyaa~ Do I really smell like a cat? I would of thought I’d smell like grass or wood since I’m always at the park.” 

The blond’s heart had softened a little bit as he heard the feline comment that he wasn’t a monster. However, the coldness of Shizuo’s heart slowly got warmer, and then colder again. “You see. I would believe that. But I’ve been told too many times in my life that I’m nothing but a monster. But at least one person has faith in me.” And with that note, he gave a pitiful shrug. Moreover to himself, as he knew from the bottom of his heart that he had no faith or any luck changing everyone’s mind. Of course, saying that you aren’t a monster and then ripping a vending machine out of the ground. Not convincing whatsoever.  A thought had crossed the bodyguard’s mind as it made him nothing but back to the same anger he felt beforehand. “Y’know... The public would actually believe that I’m not a damn monster if the damn flea were to just fuck off and mind his own business so I wouldn’t have to be violent or short-fused all the damn time and have to pay for property damage because my anger makes me blind of things ‘round me. He’s a fucking nuisance and just mentioning him makes me want to find him and tear his fucking head off.” Growling in anger, Shizuo tightened his fist to where his knuckles turned completely white and then he lessened it as soon as the smell of cat came across his senses. 

“But seriously... You do smell like a cat. Not grass. Not wood. Not anything in a park. Just a cat. But it’s fine. It’s somethin’ you see everything, anyway”

[shizuiisms]

( out of strength ) i will do replies a little bit later. trying to level up on my games, my friends since i have double shift for the next four days. kill me pls.

[shizuiisms]

“ If I told you what I was,       Would you turn your back on me?             And if I seem dangerous,                   Would you be scared? ”

[shizuiisms]

inhumansanguine:

Waving her hand dismissively at him as she walked another smile was thrown his way. Even though he said he wasn’t good at gift giving he had given he a couple of really good ideas. She figured Shizuo must know this girl well if he knew all that.

“You don’t need to apologize! Gift giving is hard I’m had trouble finding stuff for people myself.”

“Well. That’s true.” Shizuo had simply answered, looking at the store through its windows. “I’m just not the type to buy gifts, you see. This little girl has somewhat of an authority due to her relations, which is why I can’t really say much about her. But all I know is what boss told me.” He looked at the windows of the store in front of them as he then glanced back at Kayla. “Well. Wanna go check it out?”

[shizuiisms]

continued.

theblackrxder:

Shizuo’s response, in fact, made Celty have moreover a worried expression for her friend. She shyly looked down at her PDA and typed rapidly as smoke emitted from her fingertips.

「 You mean your bones are hard as steel from breaking them so much? Yeah, Shizuo, be more careful with yourself. You aren’t a superhuman or inhuman, even.」 

Even though she was the inhuman one out of the two. But Shizuo made her feel like human. 

「 You’re even gonna kill yourself one day. And it’s not gonna be your favorite person that kills you. 」  

Shortly after the blond had read the PDA, he gave a soft heartfelt laugh as he responded, “Celty, you’re getting the wrong idea.” And then almost immediately, his carefree manner boiled with aggression. “The damn flea will be the dead one first, be sure to get that right. Okay? I ain’t gonna die until he’s six feet in the fucking soil. And I’m gonna make sure that happens.” Without even thinking, he had just remembered that Celty went through a certain broker to collect cash from jobs that she had to do. Slowly calming down from his short-term aggression, he parted his lips and spoke in a soft gentle tone once more, “Ah. Sorry if I rubbed on ya the wrong way. I just want him fucking dead. Ever since I saw him alive for the first time.” 

[shizuiisms]

nyanzaya:

(🐈) Ears perked up before leaning forward. Truthfully their words were sweet, something Iza loved to hear. Ah yes, the thought of someone dying was always pleasant. He softly purred his content happily continuing to snack on his ice cream. “Hmm? Someone you want dead? I can take a wild guess as to who you are talking about but it’s probably better to not think about him right?” The feline started off, speaking between purrs and licks of ice cream. “Would you believe me if I said I too, would want him dead? His appearance is quite a bothersome one, it’s almost unfair I get mistaken for him. You wouldn’t believe the amount of trouble I run into because of it.” Iza had half-complained about about the person in question. The feline always been a chatter-box, speaking more than he should but how could he refrain from something they had a mutual feeling on? 

The difference between himself and Izaya? He wouldn’t trick people into situations they wouldn’t want to do; though, hypocritically he had done that several times before, but who needed to know that?

“Yeah. Him.” The blond didn’t want to go into any extremities as his hatred for this god damn flea wasn’t the prettiest. In fact, it wasn’t even hatred. It was boiling hatred. Shizuo clenched his jaw for a second and then receded as soon as he heard that this stranger despised Izaya just as he did. “I’d rather be mistaken for a fucking parasite than be tormented day by day by chasin’ him and being called a monster for tryna kill him. Even though he’s always the fucking problem. I’m just tryna get rid of a problem before he stinks up the air with his bullshit. Is all.” Perhaps this Izaya-look-a-like isn’t so bad after all. “And besides, ya don’t smell like the damn flea. In fact, you just smell like a cat. But that’s fine. I’d prefer a cat than a parasite that thinks that the entire world is nothing but a deck of cards to play around with or some shit.” Shizuo had given a small chuckle as he had thought about that. It was true though. At least cats mind their own business and do whatever they want instead of causing havoc by using and deceiving people just because they don’t know them. 

[shizuiisms]

out of strength. who would’ve known that this tumblr account was established three years ago and i just came back? like woaw. it’s been a minute, my guys.

[shizuiisms]

「 Any bones broken? 」

The blond stared directly at the PDA shown in front of him and replied with a chuckle. “Of course no bones are broken, Celty. Did ya forget that my bones are in fair shape?”

[shizuiisms]

“Don’t touch me.” (it's been forever how have you been friend)

“I can do what ever the fuck I want, kid.” And from there, the blond aggressively placed his hand onto the fellow’s shoulder, giving a vicious glare. “If ya wanna pick a fight by telling your elders what to do, then be my guest.”

[nyanzaya]

@shizuiisms liked for a lyric starter Song: Xan Griffin - U Remind Me

(🐈) Seeing them, Iza had mistaken them for someone else, he had called a name out to them but then he realized it wasn’t them. He licked his ice cream, finding the weather perfect for a frozen treat. If anything, he wasn’t doing anything but enjoying the feeling of the sun warming his ears that occasionally flicked from feeling the light breeze. The words were casual; though, it wasn’t something you would say to someone you mistakenly called the wrong name. “Sorry, you remind me of someone I once knew. Someone who I wish I still had in my life.” He apologized quickly.

[shizuiisms]

Nice and peaceful, huh?

Shizuo had stood there, still as day, as he puffed on his cancer stick. However, someone caught him off guard as he flinched, eyes darting towards the direction. Someone that looked like Izaya but didn’t even smell like him? What a weird day.

Clenching his fist within his pocket, he released slowly relaxed his fingers as his nose told otherwise. Flicking the ash off of his cigarette with a simple thumb motion, he was still bothered that It wasn’t Izaya. Perfect description, except with... cat ears, and even had the urge to talk to the blond without running away or making a vending machine joke. With a simple shrug, Shizuo had responded after a brief hold. “Ya know... Ya remind me of someone I know. Someone that I want fucking dead. But people have their ways, ah?” He gave a simple chuckle as he exhaled. At least he didn’t have to go on a flea hunt today.

inhumansanguine:

Nodding she takes a few steps forward towards the first shop she had in mind and wondered if the “flea” he was referring to could possibly be Izaya Orihara. She had been told that the two fight often but decides that it’s best to keep this to herself rather than speak it aloud. She does turn a bit to give Shizuo another smile as she leads them along. She had seen his feats a couple of times during her stay here but really didn’t feed into the rumor that he was dangerous or anything. Looks like she was right too since he had been nothing but kind this whole time.

“Of course! I don’t really listen to many rumors around here so I figured that what they were saying were just misconceptions. Oh by the way while I’m thinking about it did your boss give you anything to go off of for this girl of his? That would be helpful so I can help you pick out a gift for this person.”

Following behind the ravenette, Shizuo had looked around once more. Apparently, everyone still minded their own business instead of looking at him as a threat. Giving a mere smile back as soon as Kayla looked back, his ears perked up as he heard a question thrown at him. “Ah... Um. She’s a bit younger. I know her personally but the first encounter wasn’t as I anticipated.” Of course, Shizuo was a bit closer to this child than Tom was, but he didn’t want to admit that he was buying it for her. “She occasionally likes coloring and maybe a stuffed animal might be sufficient? I’m not too well with gifts for children. Her name translates to ‘red’ so maybe I can go along that?” After ranting, his eyes had widened as he scratched the corner of his mouth with the tip of his finger. “Ah... W-well. Sorry for bickering. I just am not familiar with this gifting thing.” 

[shizuiisms]

inhumansanguine:

Oh! Oh! So he was that Shizuo Heiwajima she had heard so much about around others. Although, with how he was described then and how he was acting now were two totally different things. She honestly didn’t get why people ran from him on sight—even if she knew about his exploits—since he seemed nice enough.

“I really don’t see why you seem really nice, Shizuo. People need to get to know you before making decisions on what your like.”

She realized she had been rambling this whole time instead of showing him to those places she had mentioned earlier and gave him an apologetic smile.

“Sorry got a bit off track there! We should probably get going so you can get that gift for your boss.”

“‘cuz they think I’m gonna rip a vending machine out of the ground and whack ‘em with it. But I only do that because —” the blond took a brief hold as just about to say it pissed him off. He gritted his teeth a bit and then loosened his tension and continued, “...just because of a flea. But that fucker’s always gettin’ away. I don’t got anything else to toss, so I use shit around me. I guess.” The bodyguard gave a brief shrug before his attention was redirected. “Right. He’s probably expectin’ it.” He took a step forward and then look back, “Just guide the way, I’ll follow ya so ya don’t get hurt. Just a thank you for not assumin’.”
