@creturae sent - alt! ( Send me "alt!" and I'll introduce you to a character I've rped in the past, want to play in the future or are currently playing somewhere else! - Accepting! )
Kaito Tenjo / Kite Tenjo - Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL & Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V. ( Want to play in the future. )
I’ve always had a soft spot for Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL, coming after other pretty dark and mature seasons of Yu-Gi-Oh! That’s not to say ZEXAL didn’t have its own dark moments, but I see a lot of people dismiss it due to the main characters being quite younger and goofier in comparison to other Yu-Gi-Oh! heroes. Whether you like or hate ZEXAL, I do feel like Kaito is a standout of the series - I don’t really want to go on a complicated tangent on his role in the series but a basic overview of him is that he’s a grumpy bear with a heart of gold buried really deep down. He’s someone who doesn’t really care how he comes off to others and someone that’s willing to do immoral or ruthless things, albeit for sympathetic reasons. He’s very much an antihero sort of character and definitely one of the more interesting parts of the show. Oh and did I mention he has a sickly little brother who he dotes on and would literally do anything for?
He’s also in the following series, ARC-V but it gets kind of complicated from there and I don’t want to be writing this post all day.
Sorry for all the tags, but honestly??? You all are so wonderful and amazing and I love seeing you all on my dash. Seriously. Thank you for existing and for being mutuals and your amazing selves. <3
There was something that attracted Lucía back to him, every single time. What had started as a casual hookup, had become multiple casual hookups and many doubts inside her mind, accompanied by doubts and certain feelings she was starting to have. Or was she just starting to realize? That she couldn’t tell, but she could tell how excited she got whenever she knew she’d get to see him, or how electric her whole body felt when they kissed, and even more when they did more than just kissing. George seemed magnetic to her, and despite not knowing where this was going or where they were standing - she enjoyed it. She enjoyed it all. “I’d offer to make some coffee but... I don’t really want to stand up just yet,” she said, her eyes looking up at the ceiling as she laid on his mattress, sheets tangled around them, just for her to turn on her side and be able to look at him. “I can get us some, though. Maybe some breakfast too... Do you like crepes?”
what’s a grammar rule you find yourself breaking or ignoring a lot?
answered x
are there any languages besides english in which you think you could comfortably roleplay?
nope. i know filipino and japanese too but i don’t think i can fully write using those languages roleplaying as i’m not fluent anymore
how often do you reach for a synonym dictionary when writing? how about mentally?
oh lol i have the thesaurus.com opened on a separate tab while writing. though i find myself not using it as much, only occasionally.
how often do you need to translate your own or the other’s writing with a dictionary or google when writing and reading replies?
uh not a lot? not anymore. sometimes though i have to double-check if i spelled certain words correctly but other than that, i don’t really check. i get too distracted if i look through a different site/page while writing, i have to continuously write otherwise i’m gonna lose my train of thought
do you listen to music while your write?
answered x
do you have ideal writing circumstances when you can do a lot of drafts or tackle really long ones very easily?
its not very specific but i feel like writing more early in the day ( though unfortunately since i work a 9-5 job i don’t get enough time being on here ). i also get into the right mood writing long ones after reading something ( i usually read some novels but lately, i just read some fanfictions )
are you a morning, day, evening, or night writer?
morning
how does tiredness affect your writing?
it affects me a lot. being in a good mindset helps me write so when i’m feeling meh because i’m exhausted i just don’t feel like doing anything/write anything
have you ever written a serious reply intoxicated?
nah, i only drink when i’m with friends or when i’m at a party. and i usually just pass out in bed as soon as i get home
how much do you proof-read as you are writing vs. proof-read at the end?
hahahaha none at all. after i write it, i just always go “FUCK IT” and hit reblog/publish
and then after maybe an hour i reread what i wrote and then cry internally when i find any typos/grammatical errors
when you are writing a reply, how much ahead in the thread do you plan?
it depends on the plot of the thread + the overall mood.
when its more on the fluffy, lighter side i just go with the flow. sometimes its fun to see how a thread progresses as i write it on a whim. but if the thread is more plot-based ( something that i have already plotted out with a partner ) i try to implement everything that was talked about in order to go specifically to where we want it. one time i wrote ( physically write with a pen and paper !!! ) all the bullet points that i have to hit in my reply
is there ever been a time when you’ve had to drop a roleplaying partner because you’ve found their writing style exhausting?
yeah, once. not on this blog though, it was a while ago so i don’t remember much. i just remember that they wrote in this specific dickens-esque purple prose style that was just super exhausting because haha wow what are you even saying
does writing roleplay things in public spaces make you uncomfortable?
not really. i used to write replies while i was in a lecture in uni lol
as long as its not nsfw then i’m completely fine with it
what do you do after you see a person has replied? do you read it immediately, or do you wait for it to show up on the dash? do you like it, draft it immediately, etc?
i read it first and then draft it ( unless i’m already on the computer when i see the reply )
how often do you need to change the icon in your reply while or after writing the reply?
actually not that often. what icon i’m gonna use is usually the first thing i know before writing the reply. i internalize the emotions first before replying and since i sort my icons/graphics in order of emotions ( like one would be named smile1 or sad2 etc ) i know exactly what to use
do you first get in the “zone” when writing, or do you start writing and “enter” it that way?
i get in the zone first! by reading something ( these days, its fanfiction ) just to get in the mood. otherwise i just stare at my drafts for an hour and then i just go play minecraft
what is your biggest obstacle to writing every day, if time doesn’t count?
laziness. depression. minecraft.
but mostly its time... my work takes so much of my time, especially considering i don’t drive so i commute everyday and that takes most of my day
what’s your inbox count currently? what did you do to get it so high/low?
atm there are 2 i haven’t replied to
how many drafts is a paralysing amount?
more than 30! especially if its for different partners. i just feel really bad
if you are writing a wrong reply that’s not working out, do you save what you have to be continued at another date, or do you scrap it and rewrite?
i save what i have written and then try to continue it when i’m in a better mindset/when i can better write what i want to. but now after the tumblr update, for some reason, if the thread is already in drafts then i write my reply but i want to save it as draft again, it publishes it? idk why that happens. has that happened to you?
does making icons give or take away energy to write? what about other graphics?
it makes me feel calmer so it gives me energy? but it also enables me to procrastinate because after spending hours capping episodes + make icons, i just think to myself “okay at least i was productive its fine”
i don’t actually make my own graphics. i commission graphics mostly ( like my theme background right now! )
longest reply you’ve ever writen on mobile?
i used to roleplay on kik ( ahaha ah the good ol days ) so that’s the only time i roleplayed on mobile. i don’t write replies for threads on here while on mobile because for some reason, i don’t really know why.
does the total amount of threads you have going on matter to you, or just how many you owe?
uh yeah it makes me really anxious
what’s your thought process when you format? any unspoken rules you follow?
i just really do CAPS + bold for emphasis and that’s pretty much my “aesthetic formatting”
i used to do this whole
i write in small line
like its a poem
because i used to be a
p r e t e n t i o u s dude
how does your follower count affect your mood?
doesn’t affect me at all i think? i don’t really look at my follower count
it does affect me though when i see a partner/or someone i wanted to interact with deactivate
“ are you sure you’re okay? ” from shouto to akira !!
the question catches akira entirely off guard. it’s rare, in all honesty, to have the tables turned, and for a moment he’s speechless. it’s followed immediately by the urge to say yes, of course, don’t worry about me but one look in shouto’s eyes makes him want to be more honest.
both with the boy sitting across from him at the diner, and himself.
“ sort of. “ he finally mumbles, chewing at his lower lip thoughtfully. “ just... really stressed. that’s all. “ full honesty will come in time, but even admitting he’s stressed is a lot. “ thanks. “ it probably sounds awkward, all things considered, but the sentiment is genuine. he shoots shouto a small, almost relieved smile. “ i can’t wait for exams to be over. “
@creturae inquired: (nourish) from shouto to rei ( gestures // accepting )
(nourish) - for your muse to provide my muse with food or drink
💙 💙 💙
the glass of water is much appreciated, held in shaking hands as rei’s mind slows down and she struggles to relax. she breathes out slowly and takes a drink, not noticing the small layer of frost that has spread across the outside of the cup. rei smiles faintly, and reaches out to pat her son’s arm.
“ thank you, shouto. i’m sorry, i’ll start making dinner in just a couple of minutes. ” internally, she curses herself for the anxiety attack. she knows she can’t really control what she reacts to, or how; it’s the lack of control that frustrates her. shouto needs her, so she should be strong for him, right?
( it doesn’t quite cross her mind that being strong is what she’s doing. )
