Did You Know?
Braces, or suspenders, were almost universally worn due to the high cut of men's trousers. Belts did not become common until the 1920s. — MJ
Had it really come to this? Passing Charles Macmillan back and forth like an upright booby prize?

Need-to-Know

  • I work 2nd, so besides break time during work and my days off (once a week), my replies to anything on discord or PMs are slower; sorry in advance but thank you for understanding! As turnabout is fair play, I also don’t expect quick replies to anything I send people <3 I will rarely do rapid-fire threads, and mostly only for events like school dueling and such.
  • I have anxiety, so I'm not the boldest or bravest when it comes to sharing ideas for characters, threads, or plots - but! I never turn away opportunities for character development and chances to write collaboratively with somebody (I also over apologize frequently, so... sorry for that in advance)
  • As much as I love writing, due to my schedule and the time I take to write everything (I’m somewhat slow, sorry!), I do tend to limit my characters to 2-4 threads a piece.

Plottage Preferences


POSTING: I find I do my best writing when there’s some basis for a thread, even if it's just character development/lets toss two together with this small idea/etc. – of course, this is with the understanding that things may change, because sometimes characters do what they want! And while the length I write does fluctuate, I do tend towards longer, lengthier posting (even in my “rapid-fire” posts lol); however, post whatever length you feel is best in response <3 No need to match. And if I haven’t replied to a thread in about a week, feel free to bump me in PMs or my DMs!

ROMANCE: I don’t tend to pre-plan romances for my characters (though I am, ironically, myself a hopeless romantic) and prefer to let things grow organically though that does not mean it needs to be a slow-burn affair outside of people’s plottables. That being said, if you want to test the waters between two characters, I'm always down to seeing what their chemistry is! Arranged marriages are different from pre-planned romances, in my opinion, and I'm always down to set up arranged marriages (read: drama) for my characters of the appropriate class/blood/age status.

PRE-PLANNING: Pre-planned threads/plots are more than welcome! While I have some goals in mind and things I want for my characters, I’m always open to new ideas and interactions that may shape and mold them. If you have a thought, please reach out <3

LIMITS: Fade to black for sex scenes – while some explicit things (i.e. talking, some touching) leading up to the act are fine, I’m not comfortable writing actual smut (as an ace-spec individual, I have not experience with writing such things -- and no smut is better than bad smut anyway, right?)

DEAD THREADS: Sometimes, between work and my anxiety perfectionism, I can get behind on posting and threads can die; first of all, I apologize if that happens on my account. Secondly, please know I am always more than willing to revive any threads that fall by the wayside, so just reach out and let me know if that happens! I will try to do the same.
