long-term partner; m//
Hello, I’m Meli! I’m doing something I don’t usually do. I’m seeking a long-term writing partner with the following qualifications:
18+
Writes M// without role preference
Open to multi-pairing plots
Loves OC and OOC chatter (a MUST)
Open, but not exclusive to, the fantasy genre
Loves worldbuilding
Seeking dark themes (HIGH preference for this)
Literate, writes enough to cover the scene and not the minimum
Patient
Uses Discord
If you’ve ticked off every bullet, I encourage you to keep reading.
ABOUT ME: I want you to know me as a person because I have every intention of being your friend. For us to be good writing partners, we need to get along! As I said earlier, my name is Meli, and I am 21+ years old. My favourite things in this life include video games, classical/jazz/soul music, cats, matcha tea, and writing. I have been involved in the roleplay community for 11 years and I have had experience in fandom and original works. At the moment, I am a Chemistry major pursuing a career in pharmacy. Yes, I am busy, but I still set aside time for one of my favourite hobbies. I consider myself to have a great sense of humour and I joke around plenty; ideally, you’re within the same boat. I am a huge fan of the horror/thriller genres and would totally be down to watch some scary movies and deep dives on the disturbing things in our world with you!
ROLEPLAY: Alrighty, here we go. This is where things get a bit specific. Mentioned previously, I write M//. It wouldn’t be impossible for us to write M/F, but there are particular dynamics I’m seeking - not the cliché and overdone kind - this can be discussed personally (but, again, isn’t what I’m looking for.)
Most importantly, I will not solely write the tops to your bottoms, and I don’t expect you to be doing that for me. I am all for ambiguous roles as well.
I put my heart and soul into my characters because I love what I do. Please: nothing one-sided. I love OC chatter and I want to be able to send you a meme tagging one of our muses. As a music enthusiast, I compile playlists. I even work on muse-specific Pinterest boards to boost the inspiration. I adore writing mini one-shots of scenes in OOC as a means of plot development, whether or not it’s due to a delay in my replies. I draw! Character development is a huge part of my time spent roleplaying and as such, I expect you to be just as devoted. In a perfect world, we know each other’s characters completely because we have both contributed to their development. That being said, I don’t mind if you bring a pre-made character, so long as we can work on other developments together. This is going to be a creation we’ve made.
When it comes to the more explicit scenes, I’m not against the concept, however: I value plot over smut and as a greyromantic/asexual, I will not be writing smut. I’m horrible at it and will not subject you to that mess. Furthermore, it’s exhausting and uncomfortable for me to do so often. With this being said, be open to fading to black. Despite all of that, I’m no puritan and neither are some of my muses. Some are shamelessly lewd. I am not bothered if yours are as well. Anything else smut-related should be discussed with me. No characters will be under 18.
Worldbuilding is something I absolutely love to do. I love to explore every facet of a fantasy world from customs and currency to religion and politics. The more magical, the better. I love godly conflict. My favourite kind of fantasy is futuristic, where technology and magic go hand in hand. I love the involvement of gods; we can make our own! I simply will not do anything Earth-based because it’s not up my alley. Note: the world I just described is NOT REQUIRED, it is just something I have a lot of fun with. I’m super open-minded and can go with anything that you set forth.
Please be open to writing a cast of characters. I don’t mind if the focus is solely on two people, but there is room for secondary and background characters. It’s even better if you’d like to write a chaotic group of friends, wholesomely dysfunctional family (not having to be biological), siblings that don’t hate each other, and comical background characters. I’m not saying we’ll have over 50 muses at once, but we can expand from the standard 2.
I am a literate writer and expect the same from you. One-liners are only acceptable for the interactions that demand them, but they will remain rare. I will not drown you in text every other response, but I will write what I feel is appropriate and I expect you to do the same. I average 3-5 paragraphs, but I have been known to derail to 6k+ words. You can ask for writing samples when you reach out to me.
Plot-based stuff is going to be all up to discussion. Things can get dark. Really dark. They can be as dark as you want them to be. On the lighter side, I love the different relationship dynamics that can come of our muses’ unique personalities. At the moment, I am absolutely itching to put one of my latest boys to good use. (Spoiler: he’s a wicked, anaemic brat.) Either way, if you have an idea, spring it on me and we’ll see if things work out.
Be patient with me. I mentioned being a university student, and the goals I am pursuing come before writing. Things may be slow enough for a couple replies a week, but they also might be hectic enough that I’ll need 1-2 weeks to respond. We’ll still be chatting the whole while; I’m not going anywhere!
I’m shy. I’m terribly shy and this is something nerve-wracking to me. Please excuse me if I don’t open up instantly, I want to get to know you as naturally as possible. By the same token, I am not your therapist and you are not mine. We have life struggles and we’re bound to mention them as friends do, but I have had instances in the past where my writing has come to an end because my partners want to do nothing but unload onto me. If you are in a situation where your mental health highly affects your relationship with your writing partners, please do not interact.
Worth mentioning: if things don’t work out, that should be okay. I will understand if it’s an issue on my end and I expect you to feel the same way. After all, it’s nothing personal, but we should be comfortable with each other.
I hope to have covered everything here. By all means, if you have any questions, feel free to DM me.
