Not really back, just doing a few little bits of spring cleaning.
Still havenāt seen S5 or S6, so Iām a bit behind, but maybe
once I get up to date on those Iāll consider coming back.
I hope everyoneās still enjoying themselves, having a good
time. Some things will definitely change here if I doĀ return.
I have a few scribble christmas trades I owe, and I can assure you Iāve got them sketched as Iāve noted several times elsewhere. Iām just kinda all over the place.
Iām sorry Iām still not active. I guess Iām technically on hiatus at this point. My desire to stick around keeps tanking, Iām really hoping itāll be back soon.Ā Ā I guess Iām also not happy with how Kas feels or comes across as a character. SURE, people like him, thatās great and all - but I donāt feel... Good. About it. Heās liked, but I donāt feel...??
Iām not very good at writing, so what I want portrayed is not necessarily what Iām giving you guys. And I donāt feel like Iām being taken as seriously for it, and honestly I guess Iām not helping that because I joke around a lot. (Donāt say anything against this because I know for a fact my grasp on writing is fucking poor at best. I can pull out ideas from my ass, but being eloquent or having the vocabulary to pull it off? Questionable.)
anyway, sorry. sometimes i wonder if coming back to roleplay was a good idea because i just canāt get myself in order and try to justify it with shitty posts like this.
no pity pats, please, iām just venting a little but also letting you know iām probably still gonna be... not present all that much until i can convince myself iām not shit.
Kala xristougenna at any greek folks who might see this in the rp scene!
Otherwise, happy holidays! Itās 6pm here currently and Iām a fat git after two solid days of stuffing my face with good food, and I still have one more to go. @_@
As if he hasnāt already had a few dozen energy-sphere things thrown at him already. Heās just about ready to brain the next insolent fool withĀ said sphere if they so much as begin to wind their arm back - including this old timer.
Character in general: Haxus deserved so much more than being tripped into a fucking chasm of nothingness. The fact that his corpse is probably down there somewhere in the depths of the castle and nobody has thought to clear it up means Iām left with the logical conclusion that the mice have got something nice to gnaw on at least.
Beyond that, I actually love how sly/slimy Haxus comes across as. A quick thinker, intelligent, light on his feet. It makes me wonder - you know, barring his littleā¦Ā ātripā - where development couldāve taken him.
How they play them:Fantastically. Much like Reilly and Sendak, youāve not really got much to work with and it sucks even more because haha, you only get like what, 3-4 episodes to work with overall. But somehow youāve managed to take what little there is of him and develop him into something more.
I think my favourite thing about your portrayal (and honestly this is probably gonna be said about most canon characters here) is the amount of effort you put into your headcanons and the direction you took them in. Which also extends to your verses. *v*
And, I dunno. You just have a good voice for him. I can hear him in your writing and that gives me all kindsa good shivery feels. Itās spooky.
The Mun:Ā A SWEETHEART. I honestly canāt find a bad thing to say about you, but then I also canāt think of something sweet enough to say. Youāve just shown to me since day one of meeting you that youāre sweet as pie. (I was actually a little afraid of you in the beginning but that was more or less because you were busy at the time and I was a weenie LOL).
Ā Youāre also incredibly creative and skilled enough to put it into writing and artwork, so Iām just kinda hanging back here in awe a lot of the time at how quick you can spit things out.
Also fuck iām dyinā. I love hearing about your crossing guard antics. ALSO PLEASE WATCH SUMMER WARS AND REDLINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE. After watching Tokyo Godfathers with ya, Iāve got a couple recommendations up my sleeve. We gotta do a small friends movie stream more often.
Do I:
RP with them:SORTA MAYBE.
Want to RP with them: Ā HELL YEAH I DO. We should do more stuff beyond Nico harassing this poor otter and just... talking about it in IMs. lmfldkfsfkl.
What is my;
Overall Opinion:
Keep trucking, Holly. Youāre the only Haxus around, which is fuckinā unbelievable honestly, and you do a fantastic job of it. I love. I KEES.
**Note: Munās answer are all to be completely honest. Donāt send url if you donāt want brutal honesty
Character in general:Alright I had to think some about this, given Seiban is an OC, and not canon, itās a little bit harder to get a grasp on him unless you actually see him in roleplaying action like most OCs. Ayy.
With that said, the concept of Seiban is something that initially drew me to him. I do have a fondness for theĀ āevil scientistā types, as evident by Professor Hojo and the likes, haha. >8) He seems like a pretty interesting character and Iād like to see more of him, or more development of him, at the very least. Thereās a lot of potential to be had, as long as you can try to stray away from the stereotypical tropes that tent to surround scientists who work for the baddies. (i.e: bad scientist, MUST BE CRAZY!!!!!!)
I hope to see more of his mean streak!! And also any creativity where challenges are present, I feel as though heās the type to think outside the box more often than not with more unorthodox solutions to problems that could be solved by simpler means - since heās so extra like that. ;ā))
How they play them:Iām gonna pause right here for some real-talk crit: I think you need to stop worrying about what everyone else thinks and start being more active! I know for a fact that this is something that bothers you more than anything, because of previous experiences. Like I said above, thereās so much potential, but it goes wasted because you allow your emotions to walk all over yourself like a doormat, due to how much you invest yourselfĀ in your roleplaying, which in turn triggers your anxieties about sticking around and other shit.
You need to distance your own feelings from Seibanās for your ownĀ benefit. Youāve set Seiban up to be something great, and I want you to continue working to make him something greater than that, but that can only be achieved if you keep putting one foot in front of the other and continue walking forwards instead of taking a step back because of a small mishap.Ā Focus less on his angsty past and more on his brilliant future, given thatās whatās drawing people in.
LET. SEI. KICK. ASS.
Beyond this, I do actually enjoy seeing you on my dash and hope to see more of you, when work and personal garbo isnāt getting in the way. You have a lot of development that you can work on, and Iād be glad to help you with it if you want, although Iām also content to watch you spread your wings on your own. Either way, I donāt have clap emojis to emphasise this but GET. TO. IT. BINCH!!!
The Mun:For the short amount of time Iāve known you, I can safely say that youāre rather easy to get along with right off the bat, and easy to talk to well after. You can be super enthusiastic about the things you like, which is a good trait to have, especially if you can harness that enthusiasm to write or draw until thereās no god damn tomorrow.
Which you do, when properly motivated. Holy shit.
Do I:
RP with them:SORTA? KINDA? Iāve hardly been on tumblr these days OTLā¦ Iām a fool.
Want to RP with them:Well duh I wanna roleplay with everyone I follow. Itād be silly if I didnāt. Also did u kno. Kas works alongside the Druids (specifically one, but, details) in one of his verses now so HMMā¦ Thatād be interesting, given what you said about Seiban and working with the Druids/Haggar.
What is my;
Overall Opinion:
MORE ACTIVITY, HOE!!!!!!!! GET TO IT!!!!
**Note: Munās answer are all to be completely honest. Donāt send url if you donāt want brutal honesty
(Under cut! It got a little long.)(Also of course I had to do yours immediately after Michelleās. lmao.)
My Opinion on;
Character in general:Did you know Sendak was technically the first Voltron character I knew about and it was your fault? But at the time I didnāt really care LMAO I saw big purple kitty man but didnāt quite understand him at all, and kindaā¦ Hated him, actually, donāt know why, something about his design bothered me. Still does a little, but less so. But bc I didnāt see you around on Alex as much anymore, I was like, HMM. FOLLOW THE KITTY.
Then eventually a whole fucking year later I decide to watch the show because of ShiroĀ of all characters and then haha. HAHAHAHA. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA fuck me I fell into a well of despair because I fucking adore Sendak now and like most, Iām salty he only lasted for like what, three episodes? Four?
I donāt care much for the fandomsā whines of how he couldnāt have been all that impressive given that he was taken down by a bunch of teens and their robot - thereās a reason why he was given the position as Zarkonās First in Command and itās evident in the way he works. Heās shown to be cunning and Iām always here for aĀ ābaddieā who shows brains over brawn overall, his resourcefulness after having his entire ship blown to smithereens and the fact he was still willing to prove himself capable (and he ALMOST got away with it too) of absolutely destroying the gang? Nice. Very nice.Ā āWeāre gonna take the crystal from OUR ship and fuck up THEIR ship with it. Then weāll hijack it and boom, we win!ā (Could you imagine how differently shit wouldāve gone if Pidge hadnāt interfered?????????)
Iām forever going to be bitter about how he was literally ejected from the show, but hey ho, arenāt we all. I find it an insult really, but at least he got a little more screentime than most other named galra weāve seen so far.
How they play them:Youāve taken someone who is disgustingly underdeveloped and had so much potential, and turned him into something great. I think itās real neat how you always find a way to make sure that anything you write in regards to your ideas, your headcanons and such, always somehow fit within the universe or match up to how Sendak would react, and how youāll always try to make sure that they make sense above all else. I.e: back on the server when we all sat and had that little discussion about Kariian blood and how it couldāve worked out.
Also, you refuse to water him down, and I definitely respect the hell out of that. Take for example, his interactions with Nico. I would never in a million years expect him to bend over backwards and accept Nico and all his aggravating habits. I damn near cackled out loud at their firstā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ āInteractionā.
Much like Michelle, I consider the way you write a very big inspiration. I know itās difficult given how little you have to work with and sometimes the lack of inspiration here and there, but honestly? Itās scary how well you pull him off, but then I feel like youāve always had a knack for that. You pick your muses well.
:// I feel like Iām not able to write out what I truly think because Iām not eloquent enough to get it all across, but you get the basic point. Regardless of any other Sendak blog that may ever pop up, you will always be my favourite just because of the sheer fuckin effort youāve put in.
The Mun:Ā
SCARY.Ā SCARY!!!
No, youāre honestly not. I suppose you come across as assertive in terms of personality, and sometimes that can rub folks the wrong way, especially since for as long as Iāve known you, youāre not the type to roll over and take shit (like I doā¦ OTLā¦). But I like that about you. Youāve got the balls I wish I had. :/c
Admittedly sometimes it can be a bit off-putting, especially when one happens to be having a shit day, but overall I try not to take it personally or seriously because I know for a fact you are notĀ trying to be a Big Bad.
Deep down I know youāre just a god damn meme who loves kitties and your girlfriendĀ and being called petnames by said girlfriend you big fuckin gay baby omg. There is literally no reason for anyone to ever be afraid of you. Youāre actually super sweet, and you do care about a lot of things, even if it may not be evident initially.
(ALSO YOU LOOK PRETTY AND YOU SOUND CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Makes me wanna squish ya.)
I do enjoy when we do converse, although it doesnāt seem to be often outside of the server. Perhaps I should spring myself on you some more.
Do I:
RP with them:Beyond a few asks here and there and some silly shit, I donāt think weāve properly threaded still? On here at least. Iād like to change that one day.
Want to RP with them:Can a pyjack scratch itās ass? Of course.
What is my;
Overall Opinion:
tl;dr - Your characterisation is superb and I get excited when I see you active on my dash or doing things in general. 10/10 would follow again. Also callinā myself out:
[09:11] Dorian: Now lemme be a bit gay and say I love u:*[09:11] Dorian:As a friend obviously[09:11] Dorian:āDlanfjd[09:11] blue: technically you mean[09:11] blue: straight[09:11] blue: :**
Yāall heard it here blue makes me straight, guys.

i GUESS i'll let my vain ass win. slides over my url with a frappe <:3c
@ograndsovereignā
(Under cut! It got a little long.)
My Opinion on;
Character in general:Zarkon is awful. Ruthless, overbearing, selfish to a degree. In the beginning, I had near enough next to no interest in him as a character because I was already convinced that he was just going to be another stereotypical Bad Guyā¢ who wanted to take over the universe; just like every other baddie out there who went mad with power.Ā Thankfully I was proved wrong by small increments of character development and revelations over the course of the four seasons weāve been shown by now (GOD BLESS THE OG PALADINS EPISODE).
Now I absolutely adore him, and heās definitely not without his faults, but I hope he lasts throughout all the seasons of V:LD or Iām gonna throw a god damn hissy fit @ Dreamworks for fucking this up. He has so much potential to actually be a big fucking challenge for the Paladins, given that he was almost able to break Voltron up ALONE, even if it was with the help of a battlesuit created for him by Haggar. The Ultimate Bae Dreamteam, honestly.
Uhhhhh I sympathise with him but at the same time this doesnāt excuse any of his actions for the last 10k years, so sorry bub. I hope you get your ass kicked. <3 (BUT ONLY as long as Voltron has seasons or Iām gonna be fucking salty as shit.)Ā
How they play them:Youāve taken something vague and turned it into pure poetry!
Youāre phenomenal. I have faith you wonāt ever turn him into some kind of mushy misunderstood baddie trope, given you have some understanding of him that almost feels like itās on a personal level, with just how much effort you put into writing him as close to canon as you can possibly get with someone we barely see (beyond fragmented cutscenes here and there).
I enjoy reading your characterisation because of the level of detail you put into your headcanons and worldbuilding, I could not even know where to begin gushing over how much I adore all the effort you put into your writing and artwork in order to give life to something Dreamworks has yet to do. (aka: all the jekan stuff. youāre a wiki of headcanons in regards to this and leaves me awe-struck and I love it.)
I aspire to one day have the kind of imagination and/or dedication you have that allows you to breathe so much life into these kind of details?Ā Also, just, overall: your writing is god damn sweet and something I aspire to have even a decent grasp on, so thanks for being a big olā inspiration.Ā
The Mun:Weāve had so many chances to talk to each other via previous fandoms and it took us this fucking long to make friends, do you know how mad that makes me? SO MANY MAD. Youāre a total sweetheart who I feel I can relate to on many levels and I enjoy talking to you, whether itās through text or through comms so I can hear Gandalf screeching in the background.
Even if you are literally the biggest weenie meme Iāve ever encountered who also makes the most extra fucking hot chocolate I have ever heard of.
Do I:
RP with them:Nnnnnot on Zarkon. Truth be told Iāll never push you for a roleplay on here because I understand that as the fucking EMPEROR, you technically play someone who doesnāt have that much interaction with folks like Kas, and I can accept the fact that there would have to be pretty special circumstances for him to even BREATHE in a random Lieutenantās direction, especially since he has nothing to do with High Command.
Maybe young!Zarkon? ?? Who knows. Weāll get there when we get there, really.
Want to RP with them:Well sure. Thatās why Iām harassing u onĀ @deadllysecretsā.Ā eyes emoji x 100
What is my;
Overall Opinion: I know Iāve not been able to point out any flaws here which probably wouldāve been a good thing in an attempt to show you any ways to improve, so I apologise. With that said: I could honestly not ask for a better rolemodel either way. Thank u for beinā a friend, pal.
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM I LOVE THIS BITCH!!!!!!!!!
