behind the mun meme: rp facts edition!

Name: Gab (jk it’s Melissa)
Age (if you’re comfortable!): 29 (sob)
How old were you when you first started RP-ing?: 12
Height: 5’6
OC’s or Canons?: Gosh, up until I started playing in DCMK, I only played OCs. Lion King, Pokemon, MLP, etc. 
Prefer to play females or males?: Males, primarily, but I tend to split the percentage 60/40. My boys just tend to be LOUD and GREEDY for attention. 
Favorite face claim to play:  N/A? I use the manga caps for both Conan and Hakuba, and other OCs I just drew back in the day… 
Least favorite face claim: N/A
Worst rp experience ever: UGH TOO MANY TO NAME. I have been RPing for FAR too long. It usually boils down to someone being possessive… ESPECIALLY when they won’t take ‘NO’ for an answer. 
Fluff, angst, or smut?: Angst is my favorite… good, violent, character-driven plot with terrible things that they have to overcome. Then, you sprinkle in moments of fluff for good pacing, and the occasional suggestive thing when romance is involved. I don’t publish smut as a general rule. 
Most overused FC: N/A
First character you ever made: I think that would be my anthropomorphic dog, Samuel Clide, who was a spy…  Or do you mean RP character? In that case, it’d be… … Samuel the anthro dog WIZARD for a table top RPG. Online RPing, though, would be Folade the Ethopian Wolf on TLKMUCK. 
Worst character you’ve ever played: Nero the Houndoom-Morph was pretty nasty. So fun to play, but geez he’s evil. If you mean worst in terms of quality… good question. I usually played on places that required applications, so I had to put a lot of thought/time into each one. 
Favorite type of plot: As mentioned above, I’m a sucker for painful character development. Also arguments. 
At what time of day is your writing the best?: Late at night, definitely. Around 11pm or so and onward until 3-4am. Alas, I work 9-5 monday-friday… 
Are you anything like your muse?: Ugh, yes. I’m pretentious and over-analyze EVERYTHING. Also stupid sensitive in the worst ways. But then, I guess I put a lot of myself into all of the characters that I write for… 
Worst thing about RP (in general or on Tumblr): It’s REAAAALLLYYYY difficult to get closure. So many threads take forever, many get dropped, people lose interest… 

To end on a good note — best thing about RP?: I love the archiving on tumblr and how people can enjoy the writing that I do with others. RP in general, though… Like Sami said, great practice and friendships. So fun to explore tons of different avenues by writing together. <3

       A plain rectangular box showed up at some unknown time of the day, labeled only with a sharpied “For Saguru Hakuba”. Inside was a hastily written note that described the other contents of the box:

“Today I was out to pick up a copy of one of these mystery-and-puzzle-genre games for myself, so I figured while I as at it, I would purchase the entire collection for you. Seven Ace Attorney (I have included funds to buy the single download-only game), six Layton (plus the movie), and the crossover game. I hope you like them; I’m no gamer but they are certainly enjoyable. Tell me what you think; I would love to hear some of your theories as you progress.”

      The note abruptly stops there without the mention of a name. Even a “happy birthday” seems to have been forgotten in the rush. Really, the only things that seemed to receive any careful attention where the games themselves – all freshly purchased and still in their wrappers; both series in chronological order by release date, but with that special crossover separating the two franchises.

Thankfully, her handwriting has always been just a bit unique and identifiable (it probably helps that her gift from last year was scrawled in a similar manner), so it’s quite obvious who sent it.

"Oh dear… it would seem that my dear Beauty Detective has a bit of an addiction. I’ll be certain to keep you updated on my progress, yes, as soon as I have a chance to play. Thank you very much, Kirigiri-san~!”

akaikujixyaku:

                                                       Hey don’t sound so dubious it’s gonna give me a reason to be suspicious of you.

                                       No but really it’s not a bad thing.
At least I don’t think so.

                      It’s v a l e n t i n e ’ s day, which may not be as exciting as White Day for some people but we didn’t even celebrate White Day when I was in America so I’ve always thought an awful lot of it—
Not the point.

For a moment, he was too stunned to react. But heartbeats – two, three? he somehow didn’t manage to keep track despite his best efforts – later, he melted into the affection and smiled. He couldn’t help it. Kissing or not, his lips could not still and he laughed, so close to her, warm affection in his eyes.

“Th-thank you, Emi-kun. I have to admit I was not expecting this or, well, anything for the holiday. But you always do have a way of surprising me, don’t you? Thank god for you, my dear, sweet journalist. Your ability to scribe meaning, with and without words, I think, will always leave me in breathless wonder.”

So now that Hakuba is married to TWO KAITOU KIDS…
