If we ship something (or our characters otherwise have a very developed relationship romantic or not) know that I definitely want to talk about it. All the time. I am totally willing to talk headcanons, scenarios, do plotting, all of that– but I don’t want to seem like I’m being pushy by bringing our muses’s relationship up. I just want to know that if I do talk about that sort of stuff with our characters that I don’t come off as annoying… Or seem like all that I’m thinking about is our ship. If you do let me know it’s okay to talk about it whenever, though, totally expect me to send you anything I think of when it comes to our muses relationship! There’d certainly be no shortage of things to talk about. I just want to make sure that you’re just as engaged in it as I am.

what happened to your hand?
it’s a warning.
why are you cursing at me?
in fact, i guarantee it.
we’re building a treehouse.
i found this on top of our refrigerator.
sometimes i stick leaves on my hair. it helps cool your head down.
anyway, that’s what you’re supposed to say.
i know what you do with that sad, dumb policeman.
which injuries are you apologizing for, specifically?
when we first met each other, something happened to us.
he’s not dumb… but i guess he is kind of sad.
that’s a loaded question.
don’t say ❛hate.❜
come and get me, you bastards!
get out of my chimney.
i don’t like the snappy attitude.
stop feeling sorry for yourself.
those sons of bitches, they got him right through the neck.
nobody else does.
is that a yes?
those were your last words.
but he didn’t deserve to die.
she didn’t love me back.
all mankind makes mistakes.
i love you, but you don’t know what you’re talking about.
i love you, too.
why do you consider me your enemy?
that sounds like poetry.
i feel i’m in a real family now.
I REMEMBER EVERYTHING.
i remember it as if it was yesterday.
Uhhhhhhhh, so, kind of an update since I realized I ghosted everybody and their mom and went AWOL. Which I apologize for, because I didn’t mean for that to happen.
As you’ve likely noticed, I’m still not back onto Gospel yet, mostly because Chapter 5 isn’t released yet. If you really want to ask my opinions on anything BATIM-related or otherwise, feel free to hit up @buildourmachine, since that’s my personal sideblog.
Another thing you’ve likely noticed is that I’ve…basically disappeared on the blogs I said I’d be active on. I really haven’t had much muse for those blogs as of late, and I also realized that I’d taken too much onto my plate, some of which was becoming a “finish just to get it done” factor. So I’ve shelved a couple of projects, and I’ll go on HIATUS on my other RP blogs until…
…and this is the big one…
Probably October-November, due to Back To School time at my workplace. For those of you who’ve been with me since I was calling myself TC, you know how this time period wrecks my schedule and my muse. I work, I head home, I relax with friends and head for bed early because I’m so tired. The works.
Now, I will be keeping an ear out for word about Chapter 5 or other big developments to fandoms, but currently I have three projects that I’ve been cultivating at different rates: a small visual novel project ( just for funsies ), a blog ( @fivenightsleft , the Miketrap theory-based Michael Afton I’d had planned prior to making Alice ), and a possible fic ( again, just for funsies ).
And yeah! Just as a small tl;dr:
My muse has been mostly shot, thanks to both taking too many projects and Back to School arriving.
Back to School will basically fuck me up until October-November.
I will be keeping an ear out for Chapter 5.
I’ve got a few small projects in the wings to help me upkeep my writing / etc., being worked on at different rates.
You can contact me at @buildourmachine if you want opinions / clarification / etc. on anything.
Thanks for your time, and again, I do apologize!
me? projecting my entire identity onto fictional characters and forming unhealthy attachments to them? it’s more likely than you think.
what if it’s you? && what if it’s me?
what if that’s all that we need it to be? && the rest of the world f a l l s a w a y ?
——— what do you s a y ?

i am a slow roleplayer. not only do i get distracted easily, i get overwhelmed easily. sometimes i can’t talk and do drafts at the same time so i am sorry if i ignore your message. i am deliberate and methodical with every word choice. i like to spend my time on my writing and getting to that emotional level within myself to evoke a proper response with each reply. i’m not good at whipping out thread after thread. i never have been. i’m sorry if that’s the way you roleplay and i don’t match up, but i like to think the quality of the writing makes up for my lack of speed. thank you so much!
Manipulative and romantic. Fall in love with me, I’m irresistible. You can’t help it, darling, trust me.
I am by no means trying to tell you what you should and should not do, nor am I aiming to police the internet. If you’re comfortable with some of the following, that’s fine but this is a list based on my own personal experiences and what I have learned from them and it’s to help as a warning to those who might not know what to look out for as they’re new to RPing.
((If you choose to reblog this post for others to see you may do so only on the condition that you do not tag or mention anyone who you feel is one of these partners. This is not a call out freebee, that’s not what this post is for!))
These are Partners who become easily jealous when your muse interacts with other muses. They don’t like the idea that your blog is a multiverse/ship blog because theirs is not or whatever reason they give for it. They might even go as far as to contact others anonymously to tell them to leave you alone without even consulting you first. Some of these parters appear to become upset or aggressive when you don’t know everything about their muse or you refuse a plot suggestion from them. They will try to isolate you in such a way that you are only able to write with them.
Those that don’t like what has happened in a thread or that you’re writing with someone they don’t like and then threaten to leave the site if things don’t change. That it would be your fault if anything happens to them or their blog, even threats to alter their muses relationship with yours. This is an attempt to control how and who you interact with. This is manipulative behaviour and should not be stood for.
These partners are those that come up with the plots only they control everything in the plot, your muse isn’t allowed to actually be your muse because it effects their muse or their plot. In the end you must consider if you are writing your muse or if you are writing an NPC for them. You owe these people nothing you don’t want to give, no matter how controlling or guilt tripping they then become when you confront them.
Similar to the Game Masters, these partners smother your muse with threads but every single one of them is centred around the needs of their muse and not yours. While their muse grows and develops, there’s no breathing room for yours to do the same. You burn yourself out in keeping up with their threads but don’t feel like you or your muse are getting anything in return.
They ask for all of your URLs and it can be quite flattering, only they become annoyed if they find another blog of yours elsewhere you haven’t mentioned, or that you don’t interact with them through a certain muse of yours. These people might just be excited and eager to write with you but they have no right to expect you to do so on any of your blogs.
This one always, always plays the victim ooc. Whatever you do that they don’t agree with suddenly turns into vague blogging, sending anonymous messages, setting their friends on you or blatantly ignoring you in the IMs. It turns into a public call out post in which they expect their followers to side with them no matter what and deny you the chance to explain your side of the situation, yet they do not block or unfollow you, wanting to see the chaos play out. When eventually reasoned with, this usually results in a sob story from them in order to get your supposed forgiveness and as if you might return to everything as normal… beware the apparent victim.
These are the partners who blend whatever is happening in character into out of character things. Sometimes it is just a one off and many, many people have done it in the past, but when it keeps happening there should be red flags and warning bells ringing. If your partner cannot differentiate between OOC and IC expect considerable drama!
Hey followers. I’ve seen a couple of call-out posts on my dash over the past couple of weeks, highlighting the alleged bad behavior of certain roleplayers. Whether these posts contain truth or not, I just want to share this with everyone:
Yes, it’ll hurt their feelings. They might get upset. But your safety is more important. Don’t write/do/participate in anything you’re not comfortable with. If you’re terrified or anxious of confrontation, just block them and let it be done!
Your concerns are vallid. Your fears are valid. This person might be triggering you and sure, they might not have the context! If you feel comfortable with explaining it to them do it. If you don’t, or if you do and they don’t seem to care or understand, block them. Say no. Cut out what you can in life that makes you upset or anxious, because you will have a lot to deal with offline already.
Please be safe. Please use the block button. Please turn off anon if you keep getting garbage anonymous messages. Please say no.
If you don’t know how to “soft block” people –
Block someone, then unblock them immediately. This will make them unfollow you unknowingly and simultaneously have you unfollow them, too.
If you need to block certain words/phrases/usernames from your dash – use the extension tumblr savior .
And the most powerful tool of all – If you’re scared, upset, triggered, feel guilted or uncomfortable –
It doesn’t have to be forever and you don’t have to delete your blog. It doesn’t have to be for very long at all – you don’t have to announce it!
But Tumblr should not affect you once you sign out. It is a website. You have higher priorities. You are a living, breathing, beautiful human being who deserves to be treated with respect and cherished. It’s so easy to see people as simply text on a screen when you’re online, even subconsciously; that anonyminity can encourage people to be mean, to take out their problems on others.
Don’t be that person and don’t be the victim of that person. You deserve better. You deserve to enjoy Tumblr as a hobby and a place you visit online. Do not feel bad about saying no or using the block button – that’s what it was created for!
Take care of yourself and your friends. You’re going to be okay.
“I’m scared” “You’re not scared, are you?” “Are you frightened?” “You can’t frighten me” “There’s nothing to be afraid of” “Are you scared of me?” “I don’t want you to be afraid of me” “You don’t need to be afraid of this” “Why are you so scared?” “I’m scared to death” “Doesn’t anything scare you?” “I’m not afraid” “I’m not trying to scare you” “Do I frighten you?” “Why aren’t you afraid of me?” “What’s your biggest fear?” “You gotta be afraid of something” “It’s designed to scare you” “There’s no need to be afraid” “I don’t want to scare you away” “Are you scared?” “I don’t scare easily” “There’s nothing wrong with being afraid” “You terrify me” “Don’t be scared”
