RULES
1. Be kind, or at least respectful to Mun
I think this is a fairly obvious rule- I have zero tolerance for hate and harassment and if you engage in that kind of behavior it will be an immediate block. I will also not tolerate discriminatory behavior.
2.Communicate with me
If there is a change in plot
You are uncomfortable with something
Want to start a thread
Want to drop a thread
3. I do in fact write NSFW (see my age in about) and it will be tagged and put under read more’s, BUT
only if our characters relationship has developed completely
you have asked me about it (for muns and muses that are 25+ only)
4. I RP with OC’s and anyone really- I am multi-ship but I reserve the right to refuse threads for any reason
5. I work full-time - I am very busy and sometimes I can be slow. Please be understanding of that, and I will try my best to keep in contact. I might not always have muse to write, but I love HCing and talking OOC!
6. if you break mutuals, just hard block me.
no explanation needed, but if you want to be nice and just say for whatever reason the vibes are off that would be chill! I always open to talking about icks, boundaries and trying to make it work. I rarely take things personally and value honesty.
7. In OOC interactions, a real boundary for me is that hearing about active s.el.f-harm, active su.ic.ide risk, active d.i.sordered eating and active d.o.mes/tic abuse because they are real and felt triggers for me.
I have had issues in the past with both friends and lovers using mental health to emotionally and physically abuse me. While I care deeply, I have done a lot of work on myself and know that is it not my job to save anyone, no matter how much I care. More than that, because by virtue of how Tumblr works, friendships built on this platform mostly remain online only. I find it really distressing to hear about someone suffering and struggling, and for there to be absolutely nothing I can do about it. I am not a doctor or a mental health professional, so I just feel really uncomfortable having that kind of information disclosed to me because the last thing I want to do is make an already dangerous and volatile situation worse.
in terms of the US, here are some free online 24/7 text and phone hotlines that you can use instead if you are struggling:

8. I am an adult, all muses are adults with stories that are complex and filled with dark topics. While personally and OOC I am not comfortable with active risks, and I am ok writing darker topics.
That being said, we as muns need to plot and discuss and be very clear about boundaries (and be 25+ to write such content). S/A, C.S.A, in*3%t, r$!&e, a.n.i.m.al a.b.us.e are hard no’s for me. I can enjoy writing angst, and action sequences, but they cannot be the only thing we write together. Fundamentally, I believe in happy endings and there must be light at the end of the metaphorical tunnel.
9. do not come into my ask or DM’s telling me to change my FC’s, and fundamental details about my muses. It is deeply offensive. If you have an issue with my muses, I would rather you just not follow me. I do not tell you how to write your muses, do not tell me how to write mine.
I have been writing some of my muses for over a decade and I have put a lot of time, love, research and development into them. My characters are all intentional, and push back against very specific literary, film, and TV tropes/eras. Obviously, the muses at the top of my muse list are the oldest, the ones at the bottom and indented muses are the newest. Even some on my “new” muses I have been writing for at least 5 years. I do my best to cast the most accurate that I can, but obviously when you write queer characters that have mixed ethnic backgrounds it gets really hard to find the “perfect” fc. I am always looking for new or better fc’s that fit my vision, but I will never change my fc’s for a fc that is lighter skinned than the ones I presently use. The only character this applies to is Sakura (ethnicity), and obviously most my queer muses as well (sexuality, most their fcs have not identified their sexual orientation publicly).
if you have suggestions that are not lighter skinned or completely different ethnicities than what I list for that respective muse, I will absolutely hear you out! Keep in mind though, I am a cis, queer brown woman and my intention with writing my muses is not be comprehensive or perfect about representation, they each have a particular story.
10. do not come into my ask or dm’s requesting or asking for plotting when you have not even read my muses bio’s or my rules.
Sakura is my oldest, main and most beloved muse. She is my default muse and the one I enjoy writing the most. I absolutely write my other muses as well, but if you do not want to write with her or strongly dislike her you should reconsider following.
11. I Am Allowed To Say No To Things and It Doesn't Make me A Bad Person
I have had issues (white people, it is usually white people) that cannot take a no from me. I don’t often say no to things, but when I do I have my reasons. Please respect that.
A Note that is also in my About:
if you see me engaging or re-blogging a post from someone you were abused by or is known to have engaged in racist, homophobic, ableist, transphobic behaviors to PLEASE feel free to come in and tell me on anon or not.
Or if I ever in the past or future say something that seems sketch to feel free to tell me. I am not perfect and I am always trying to be better. I know I have engaged with suss muns mainly because I simply didn’t know they were sketchy. I try my best to vet people by looking through their content and tags but I don’t always have time to REALLY look into things and that’s my bad.
I also know that sometimes even I can be toxic sometimes, and I am truly sorry if I have ever made anyone uncomfortable because that is NEVER my intention.
I want to emphasize that this blog is one that is inherently grounded in representation for POC and LGBTQA+,anti-racism, decolonization, growth and healing
