Hello. This is Reina, the writer behind this horribly made blog, and I’m here to welcome you and thank you for taking a look at my rules. I’m over the age of 18, an asocial asshole, and my main hobby is writing. I hope this will be a safe space where we can have a good time together and inspire each other through our writing. Fingers crossed, I look forward to our future interactions. After giving my rules a check, please consider filling my interest checker ( form and/or sheet). That will make things easier for both of us.
The bolded parts of the rules are the ones for a quick read. I’d suggest you read all of it, though.
— MUSES: I write muses from many different fandoms and in many different fandoms ( see crossover section ) and there are many muses I plan to add. Depending on activity and interest ( my interest ) I’ve categorized them as: primary, secondary, tertiary, private, and test muses. Primary muses are my most active muses. The ones I’ve developed the most and delved deeply into their characters. Secondary muses are a little less active than primary, but my interest in them is still high. Primary and secondary muses are less likely to be dropped. Tertiary muses are something like guest muses. I have muse of them only at some times and they might lack in-depth in my portrayal ( and understanding ) of them. Private muses are the muses I am a little more selective to write. Some coming from mythology, literature, or generally works of fiction I hold some higher respect for, their nature feels unfit to be written in crack/one-liners. They are meant for roleplay partners I can trust to write with and for multi-para/novella threads. Anyone can request any private muse at any time but I’ll be slower to write and my level of comfort will vary depending on our level of interaction and the chemistry between our muses ( still please write with my private muses ). And at last, there are my test muses. Test muses are muses I add when being unsure if I’ll be adding them permanently or not. When a test muse is dropped, so are the threads/asks I owe of them. If you want to be informed of muse updates, like this post.
— REPLIES: I’m a slow writer. Trying to be a somewhat active member of this ( rotten ) society, and taking into consideration how things are in my life right now, I doubt I’ll be replying to a thread in less than a day. I might need days, weeks, or months to get to our thread. Hell, I might take over a year to reply but be sure how long I take is not a reflection of my interest in our thread. Sometimes, I lose a specific muse, sometimes I don’t want to write a specific matter, sometimes I get stuck and can’t come up with a reply as good as yours. Or all of the above. But it’s definitely something that has nothing to do with you.
— DROPPING: After scaring you a little in the previous section, I’m here for some comfort. I don’t drop threads and I don’t delete asks. Never. Exceptions are one-liners, celebration-themed threads, and smut asks and threads. You realize writing sexual scenes is a different case and depends on how comfortable my muse and I feel. But how I think of it is, that the time and thought you put into writing something, I don’t want it to be thrown away. Of course, that won’t have to apply to you. If you want to drop something feel free to do it, but I’d appreciate to be informed first.
— MUTUALS/FOLLOWERS/FOLLOWING: I’m mutuals only. If you follow me and I haven’t followed back, that means I haven’t checked your blog yet. If you followed me and I soft-blocked you, I’ve checked your blog but I can’t see myself writing with you.
— TEST TRIAL: That might seem unfair enough but I have to say it. Chances are that if you follow me, I’ll follow back. If I don’t find something in your rules to disagree with, or something in your blog I find disturbing to the point I can’t see myself writing with you, I will follow back. In my experience, a writing sample is never enough if not testing writing with a roleplay partner. After testing writing together ( one or two threads ) I will be able to decide if I continue to want to remain mutuals. If I don’t, I’ll be soft-blocking you and dropping our active threads.
— AGE: As I said, I am over the age of eighteen. I won’t write with anyone younger than the age of sixteen. I am open to roleplay almost anything and this will be a NSFW-free blog. I won’t roleplay anything which will be considered R-rated with minors, meaning anything that includes sexual themes, intense graphic violence, drug abuse, etc. but I am open to writing most things if both muns are of age.
— CONTENT: I believe this to be the most important rule before following me ( since I think it is the number one reason people don’t want to follow me ). Roleplay is writing FICTION. To me, there are few limits when writing fiction. My writing is NOT a reflection of my beliefs in real life. As a writer, I am open to exploring most subjects and relationships. I will NEVER force an idea or a plot to somebody, especially if they state they are uncomfortable with it ( this is what rules and discussing are for ). But subjects such as: teenagers having sex ( something that happens in real life too ), ships with an age-gap, toxic relationships, etc. MIGHT appear on this blog. I want to emphasize ‘MIGHT’ because there are many plots I haven’t written ( or I RARELY write ) but I am open if it is ASKED of me. And I know these are subjects that a big part of the roleplay community doesn’t agree with. If you CAN’T understand my reasons, it’s better for us not to write together. If you DO understand my reasons but don’t want to write these subjects of FUCKING course I will never make you feel uncomfortable in the slightest. Just try to block the tags I use. Again, my writing is NOT a reflection of my beliefs in real life. For sexual themes you wouldn’t want to see on the dash ( with my teenager muses for example ), I write these in my nsfw blog, knightinspicyarmor, so if you don’t follow me there, you are safe from seeing something that disturbs you on the dash.
— SHIPPING: I prefer male x male romantic relationships. No matter how much I like a specific ship, I will never jump to the conclusion that the other side agrees to it even if it’s a canon ship. Unless having discussed the possibility, I want the relationship between our muses to be explored through threads.
— SMUT ( jump to the next section if you are a minor ): I will write smut on knightinspicyarmor or discord. Most of the time and if I’m not feeling comfortable with a roleplay partner, I am not much willing to write sexual scenes with another person. But when I do feel comfortable, it is once again for the shake of WRITING. Exploring the bond, the emotions, and the atmosphere to come with the sexual act.
I am BDSM open but not for all of my muses and not for all roleplay partners. What I mean when I say I am BDSM open: Open to some/most tropes/dynamics but not all of them. Again, that’s depending on the muse and how comfortable I feel with my roleplay partner.
You realize the thread is only a thread and we don’t discuss it OOC except if it is to discuss boundaries or the plot. Comments like: ’ look what my muse is doing to you ’, ’ isn’t that hot ’ etc. will result in hard-block. Again I’m here to portray and develop a fictional character. A fictional character may have kinks, may be more sexually active, grow emotions in a different way than others or express their love in different ( more intimate or even twisted ) ways. Mun ≠ muse and that should be clear enough.
I prefer writing male x male sexual scenes. Only after a lot of building, I’ll feel comfortable enough to write male x female sexual scenes. I have zero experience and knowledge in writing female x female sexual scenes.
— CROSSOVERS: I love crossover threads. Whether it’s my muse having a verse of a different fandom/universe, whether it’s your muse having a verse of the fandoms/universes I write at, or a magic portal opening somehow for them to meet, or finding together a common ground ( a modern verse for both of our muses for example ), I want you to give them all to me. I don’t mind if I don’t know where your muse is coming from. If both sides want it, we can work this out. You can find my ’ Crossover Verse ’ page here with all established Crossover Verses I came up with for my muses. Please also consider filling my Crossover Interest Checker if there’s someone you want to write from that list. Also, you can find on this (wip) page all the works of fiction I’ve read/seen and how active I am.
— TRIGGERS: I tag the triggers my mutuals have on their rules/about page. A post with all the triggers tagged will be added soon. If you need me to tag a specific trigger, feel free to send me an ask or a message. I tag triggers like: ’#tw: yourtriggergoeshere’ without the quotation marks. My own triggers are aliens and cockroaches. That’s the reason I won’t be writing with any single-muse roleplay blogs having alien muses (those having a non-human form). Cartoon/Anime alien faceclaims are the exceptions.
— TAGGING: I have a very specific tagging system, tagging the fandom, the muse, my roleplay partner’s muse, the ships, and the verses to appear on this blog. You can find all information here (wip).
— DRAMA: I don’t care for any drama or witch hunts going around. If I see any on my dash, this will result in me soft-blocking or hard-blocking you. I don’t want to participate in any of these and I find them disturbing.
— MULTIPLE THREADS: I don’t mind having multiple threads with the same person.
— SELECTIVE: I am selective when it comes to writing. I don’t roleplay on DM. I roleplay on discord so if we are mutuals, feel free to ask for it
— MAINS: I have blogs/threads which I prioritize over others. I don’t practice exclusives but there are roleplay partners I feel close to exclusives, meaning the chances to want to write with the same muse portrayed by someone else are very low. There are, but very low. I always enjoy looking at how someone has made their muse unique in their own way. You can find my main call here.
— REMINDERS/TRACKING: I have a system of tracking all interactions between our blogs. Most of the time, I don’t lose or forget threads but if you feel the need to poke at me ( for some yet unknown reason ) feel free to do so. But if you overdo it, be sure I’ll start losing interest.
— ASKS: You can continue an ask I have answered. I encourage you to do so.
— STARTERS: My open starters are actually open to everyone and don’t hesitate to reply to one if someone else already has. I’ll reply to another post and tag you.
— OCS: I enjoy writing with OCs, as long as they have enough info and our writing mesh well. For most OCs, our first thread will be one that our muses get to know each other for the first time. I’d like for them to meet as complete strangers and let their relationship build naturally.
— ENGLISH: English isn’t my mother language. Keep in mind OOC language ≠ Thread language. I pay little mind and care to ooc posts and communication. Don’t assume the mistakes I make when writing ooc will be the same mistake on threads. I’m much more careful when writing my muses and do my best to make no mistakes at all. There might be times I make some or write something difficult to understand. Of course my inbox/messages are open for clarifications.
— MEMES/FANART: Please, do not use me as a meme or fanart source. This goes for roleplay partners or not. Please, reblog memes AND fanart from the source.
— SPOILERS: This blog is not spoiler-free. I will tag spoilers: #|| spoilers || and # || spoilers | fandom ||, and try to keep everything under READ MORE. You have been warned.
— HIATUS: For blogs to have been inactive or in a hiatus for a very long time, I will unfollow and re-follow from my archived rp blog. That is so I can keep my mutuals’ list clean. Because I constantly check my archived blog, I’ll know when you become active again and re-follow from my active blog.
MUSE SPECIFIC RULES
— ARCANE MUSES: My arcane muses are solely based on Netflix’s series. I know nothing of League of Legends or video games in general.
— SNK MUSES: I think of SNK as two separate stories that don’t connect with each other. I’m talking about before and after Marley Arc. ( Final season of the anime, chapter 91 of the manga ). Levi’s and Mikasa’s portrayals are based before Marley Arc, and Reiner’s after Marley Arc. I will surely write all three of them at any timeline of the SNK universe, but if not specified or agreed otherwise, my default timelines will be the ones above.
— CASTIEL: My portrayal of Castiel is canon-divergent since I don’t agree with many plot points of the show. I am not caught up with season 15 ( I only know some spoilers ) and my portrayal of Castiel is based mostly between seasons 4 and 9. I will write him at any season except 15, since I don’t know what’s going on. There always are exceptions though. Also, Castiel’s powers are different. At any season I am about to write him, he’ll have the same powers as he did on season 6, meaning much more powerful than he is in the later seasons ( he has his wings, he can time-travel, defeat most creatures etc.).
— CASSIEL (BNHA OC): On his main verse, Cassiel is a U.A. transfer student, in class 1-A. In other verses, at the exact same timeline, he might be a pro-hero, meaning his age will vary depending on what and with who I want to write him. He’s my OC, and I might change his age depending on the thread. For example, in his main verse, he’s Midoriya’s classmate, but in another, he might be older than him. That of course will not be changed when it comes to the same rp partner and the same muse. I will not write him with the same Midoriya muse, both as an adult and a teenager.
