❤ : What are some role-plays that you have done/are doing that you particularly enjoy and wish to share with your followers?
I’ve been having way more fun playing Makoto than I ever could have anticipated. I think I lucked out with finding some roleplay partners fairly immediately who indulge his ego and his self-destruction without trying to ‘fix’ him (so I can have all the fun of wilding out), but who also don’t let him get away with so much shit that he steamrolls them. It’s a delicate balance but necessary to keep things from getting stale or one-sided. I’m really grateful for all the shine that he’s been getting and for everyone who has put up with my self-indulgent bullshit when I’m writing him.
On a purely personal and OOC level, I think a lot of people, including my friends, tend to forget that I’m nonbinary because I play so many female characters and I’m comfortable responding to female pronouns even though I prefer neutral ones (they/them/their). Playing as Makoto and having people interact with me through the veneer of a male character has hit on some good gender feelings for me that haven’t been struck in a while. I’m not playing him for, like, gender validation or edification or anything, but it’s a really nice side effect that I’m enjoying while I’m along for the ride.
