Don't just react to replies
This seems to be a rampant issue in the RPC. And it is extremely draining for your partners if your muse and your narration do nothing else but react to your partner's post. Let me explain through an example:
"Hello! What are you doing?"
"I'm birdwatching."
The partner can have their muse answer with "Nice. Bye." and just end the thread, or ask a different question to try and keep the thread going. You leave it up to your partner to maintain an engaging interaction and it also gives an air of lackluster. Just a reaction is often not much for the other muse to react to in turn.
Instead of just replying a question, throw the ball back at your partner's muse, keep the interaction interesting for both. Maybe half of your reply being reaction, the other half new things for the other muse to react to.
"I'm birdwatching. Do you want to join me?"
That way, the other muse can either join or decline and maybe suggest an alternate activity for them to do. It's already more engaging and you signalize your partner that you are interested. You can always take it a step further, too.
"I'm birdwatching. There is this rare bird in this area. Check it out!" The muse shows the other muse a picture of the rare bird. "Do you want to join me? I could need an extra pair of eyes."
It's just like that in normal conversations. Yes, I know first-hand that it can be exhausting to ask a friend questions back and maintain a conversation, but having your friend/partner do all the legwork is even more exhausting for them and selfish from you, to be honest.
Rp is a two-way street, just like conversations. Treat your partners with respect and give back what they give you. Literally. Make it a rule that if your partner gives you nothing to work with repeatedly, then have your muse just walk out on them. Don't burn yourself out on people not valuing your time and work.
If you think it's okay to harass other bloggers for the characters they play get off my fucking blog.
Reblog this if you understand roleplayers are human, so they will occasionally post vent/ooc posts and that's okay.
we're not required to be perfect all the time.

You okay, babe? You reblogged chisiuwuâs âgrowthâ again.
Reminder to be kind to ocs.
Be kind to oc writers.
Be they young, old, new to rping and writing, or if theyâve been here for longer than you have⊠they have decided to create someone new and wonderful and share it with you for free.
So please: engage with them. Talk about their ocs. Try to learn about their story and their world. You may find you like them a lot more than youâd planned, and the writer will thank you endlessly for the interest. All your canon characters are their creatorsâ ocs, after all. Just because they have been published and shared with the world on a broader scale does not make them more valid.
So please, remember: when someone gives you an oc, that is a piece of themself. It is a piece of their heart and a representation of all the work, time, and effort it took to get them to that point.
Theyâre trusting you with it. Be gentle and show them respect.
âyou cannot ship these two fictional characters becauseââ actually I can because they are not real people. they are just toys I play with. you cannot apply real-world morality to fiction or how strangers play with their imaginary toys in their imaginary sandboxes.
you can, however, curate your own internet experience by minding your own business, muting/blocking/scrolling past what upsets you but does not hurt anyone in real life in any way, shape or form.
Reblog this if you practice multishipping, which means you can have multiple ships going on and they are in separate verses.
WHAT LOW ACTIVITY & SLOW REPLY MEANS:
it means i want to be here, i really doÂ
it means that i have, whether i like it or not, more important things to do than roleplay at the moment
it means that replies are going to sit for a moment
WHAT IT DOESNâT MEAN:
that i care any less
that i donât want to talk / plot with you
that you arenât allowed to IM me or ask for my disco
Sometimes Tumblr has to take a back burner, and thatâs fine! Roleplay will still be here when we get back. So take that day to yourself. Donât worry about drafts. Donât worry about how âslowâ you are being. Everything is okay!

SO weird to me that the default assumption in modern fandom is that you must be attracted to your favorite characters. nah man those are just my funky little guys and gals i want to study them under a microscope. i want to put them in a mason jar and shake it and see what happens
PSA: I don't care if we start a millon threads with eacthother and not one of them gets done
Its about having fun and growing into your muse and expanding your character.Â
do me a favor and reblog this if you portray a female or non-binary canon or oc muse
I've been giving this writing advice to a lot of my friends lately so I'll do a mumbling post about it here.
You gotta play dolls with your characters.
Slap them in AUs, make silly fanfiction, make "what if?" senarios. You gotta recreate the feeling of taking your toys out as a kid and improv-ing a story on the spot. You'll get a sense of what makes them who they are outside of their main storyline.
Take a piece of yourself, expand and explore upon it. Create characters and storylines that are love letters to those you've cared most about. Take that little ball of hate and/or despair and give yourself a little therapy lesson.
Be bored! Be frustrated! Be unsatisfied! "Someone should make a story about ___" YOU should make that story! If you aren't satisfied with the media you see, make for yourself the story you DO want to see! Don't worry about how others will view it. For right now, for right at the beginning, the only way you're gonna make progress is if you're having a bit of fun.
I am an impulsive roleplayer.
I let my muse take the reins and decide what threads to start or reply to in a given day. If the muse doesnât feel it, it isnât happening. That doesnât mean that I hate you or that I no longer want to interact with you; I probably either lost our thread or my muse just said, ânah bro.â
Iâm sorry I drop threads. Iâm sorry I donât reply to memes. Iâm sorry I ignore my asks. Iâm sorry I plot things and then donât do them. Iâm an impulsive roleplayer: my muse guides me.
Roleplaying isnât my job: itâs my hobby. I do it for fun. My muse isnât my coworker: my muse is my friend. We have fun together. If I started treating this as a job, it wouldnât be enjoyable for me anymore, and the quality of my content would diminish greatly!
And while weâre on the subject, just because a thread gets dropped does not mean the relationship between our muses is dead!! Thread =/= relationship! We can start something new and continue building their bond! Relationships are important to building new aspects of our muses!
I always want to roleplay with you. JustâŠperhaps not with that thread. You feel?
