The ultimate shadow ban survivor guide
I've seen multiple people I follow, or their mutuals affected by shadow bans lately (makes me wonder if it's @staff's attempts to fight bots going totally haywire). As someone who survived a 2-month-long shadow ban on my main this winter, I thought I'd make a post.
First step of being shadow banned: calm down and take a breath. A shadow ban is just a stupid glitch in tumblr's anti-spam system. You're not losing your blog. You're gonna need a whole lot of patience, and deal with inconveniences, but it's fixable.
Read the incredibly useful post All About Shadowban by @that-damn-girl. It outlines the symptoms quite well. The only thing I'd point out is "your original posts won’t be visible to your followers either" - afaik that doesn't happen. Everything you post and reblog will still be visible to your followers, and also they can interact with your posts - like them, reblog them, reply to them.
Just like the post says, contact support. I recommend using a different email than what your banned blog is registered to; not because your ticket won't go through (mine actually did, as I found out when they finally replied), but because you might not receive an email confirmation for your ticket (it's somehow tied to the anti-spam thing, I think), and you're going to worry and try to send more tickets, like I did.
Now wait. And wait, and wait, and wait. They are SLOW. I've seen some miraculous 1-day unbans in the #shadow ban tag, but most people, like me, wait around a month for support to reply. Those are the same guys going through thousands of bot reports every day in addition to user tickets.
If you're going to wait, might as well keep blogging. Now if this is your sideblog that's shadow banned, consider yourself lucky. Make a new temporary sideblog, use it to post your original stuff so it goes into tags (mind that it might take a few days for a new blog to start showing up in tags). Reblog everything to your shadow banned blog so you still have all content in one place and your followers see it. If it's your main that's banned, you can still do that, but there's the extra pain of not being able to reply to posts or send non-anon Asks, since that is only done from main. Might need to register a separate account for that.
Some more fun facts under readmore.
Fun fact #1
Trying to send support follow-up emails in the request confirmation email isn't going to do anything to speed up the process. But I did tweet at them using this tumblr support summoning picture by @cornmayor and offered a raccoon blood sacrifice to resolve my issue when it was like a month with no response. This is what they replied.
Tumblr media
3 hours later I got an email that my shadowban was lifted. I honestly don't know if it was a coincidence, but I mean, this is tumblr staff. Maybe they do accept blood sacrifices.
Fun fact #2
If you're wondering why my shadow ban lasted 2 months if I got a support reply after 1 month, well. It's hard to say exactly how their ban/unban system works bc support replies exclusively with pre-written template sentences, but basically they fucked up. The first time they told me my blog has been restored, I gained pretty much all functions back, except that my posts were still not appearing in tags. Which means probably that being hidden from tags is some kind of different flag on your blog that they forgot to remove. So I had to send a follow-up ticket and wait another month.
My advice is, when they tell you it's fixed, don't take that at face value, go and check all the functions you'd lost (replies, messaging, asks, tagging, appearing in notes, getting mentioned by others).

Let's Play | Steddie x Fem!Reader | 18+
Tumblr media
(Do not report the post it is a re-post from an old account that got shadowbanned and tumblr refused to fix it!))
Warnings: explicit language, daddy kink, perv Eddie, dirty talk, rough sex, oral (male receiving, voyeurism, dom/sub dynamics, some (fake) blood. Sub!Steve and Dom!Eddie
Summary: You are spending some down time at home trying to wait up for your boys. However, a strange phone call leads you to become rather concerned. It's time to play a little game to keep the stranger from on the other side of the line from spilling Steve's guts, all over your porch only to learn it's all part of the game.
It had been a grueling week of exams and mid-terms which had lead to tons of sleepless nights as well as all nighters. Thank goodness it was Friday, and that Steve had been kind enough to drive you home. He was such a golden boy all the girls loved him including you. Some said it was the hair others said it was his charm. Maybe they were right? But to you he was a good friend and no matter how much of crush you developed, it would break that bond. "You okay?" Steve's voice interrupts your thoughts. He had noticed how quiet it was and usually it wasn't on these quite frequent rides home.
Shifting in your seat and leaning against the window in attempt to get comfortable for the long ride ahead. "Uhm, yeah." You reply rubbing at your temples to alleviate the oncoming headache. "Just been thinking about my grades." Steve taps his fingers against the wheel as the radio quietly plays in the background.
"Careful, Y/N. Thinking can be dangerous." He warns earning a giggle from you and he smiles, "I'm serious!" He chuckled as you reach over and gently smack his arm.
"Just focus on the road, Harrington."
"It's hard to focus when there's a pretty girl in my car." He replied with a quick retort. You scoff at such an accusation and turn to look look out the window. "What?" He asks. Most girls would beg at their knees for a chance for Steve 'the hair' Harrington to call them pretty. "Don't believe me?" Steve was shocked that you didn't believe him. He meant it. Unbeknownst to you he had the biggest and dumbest crush on you.
"Its not that I don't believe you, Harrington," You argue, "It's just hard to believe that you think that. I know I'm pretty." He grins at your newfound confidence and nodded in agreement.
"Nice, Y/N." The vehicle comes to slow halt as Steve pulls into your driveway. "But I meant what I said." He re-stated putting the vehicle into park. "You are pretty." Steve cuts the engine and turns his full attention to you.
"Whatever, pretty boy." You tease him back and gather all of your things, reaching over to grab the extra bag in bag in the back. As you do this he gets a perfect view of your ass. Your backside had been on full display, round, and absolutely perfect. He shuts his eyes and turns to look away when you pull back after retrieving the bag from the backseat.
"What?" You huff eyeing a very flustered Steve.
He shakes his head and sighs, "Just, just get out." He muttered and you smile leaning over to kiss him on the cheek. Nothing special just a quick 'thank you' peck. Climbing out of the vehicle you turn your head and smile, "Thanks for the ride, Stevie. Eddie offered to pick me up tomorrow for work so I'll see you then." With that said you shut the door and walk off towards the porch, Steve watching your every move like a hawk.
To save some face Steve speeds off down the road towards his own house. He had some 'problems' he needed to deal with. Damn you. He decided tonight was the night he was going to put his plan int motion.
On the other hand as you made yourself comfortable in your own home the phone rang. Ugh, had Steve forgotten something. He had a habit of leaving stuff in your bag and then calling to say he left said object. It was like he just wanted to hear your voice sometimes.
"Hello, L/N residence may I ask who's calling." You adjust the pitch of your voice in order to appear innocent. There was the sound of heavy breathing through the other line.
"Steve?" You try again forgoing the innocent act.
"Who's Steve?" A voice questions and you take the hint that it's not Steve.
"He's.. He's my boyfriend." You lie. Why were you lying to this stranger let alone speaking to him any longer.
"That's to bad. Would've like to of had my shot." The voice was new and kind of sexy but in a 1980's horror cliché kind of way. You find yourself giggling and getting all giddy.
"Don't know stranger. Steve's a pretty jealous guy." Again another white faced lie. Why put on such an act for someone you didn't know let alone just met.
"Is that so?"
"Mhm." You hum sweetly into the receiver and walk over to the couch taking a seat. Maybe your night would take a turn for the better. There's the sound of shifting on the other end before the voice comes back even more flirtatious than the first time.
"You sure that he'd let you run around the house dressed like that then?" Your heart plummets down in your chest and all fun goes out the window.
"Wha-What did you say?" You ask trying to make sure this was all some sick joke.
"You heard me, Y/N. Does your boyfriend let you parade around in short little shorts and that little see through tank top?" The threat of the of this stranger was now very clear to you. Not only was it not Steve, but he could see you.
"Is this some kind of fucking joke?" You ask completely unaware of how anyone could possibly see you in the safety of your own home.
"Aww, are you scared Y/N?" The voice cooed harshly. Your heart thumps in your chest as each second passes by. "Good, you should be."
You whine and go to check the front door before deciding not to let some pervy asshole get the best of you, "I-I'm hanging up and calling the cops." You declare shutting the blinds and double checking the front door's locks.
"You do that and I'll gut Steve on your back porch and make it look like someone fucking ran a chainsaw through him!" The stranger practically shouts at you through the phone. You let out a horrified sob and turn to face the sliding glass door.
"We're going to play a little game."
"What kind of game?" You sniffle walking over to the door and peering out into the dark, until the lights flicked on outside, There sat Steve. He was duck-taped down to one of the lawn chairs blood trickling down the side of his head. He locked eyes with you and shakes his head. You reach for the door handle, but stop on the stranger's account. "Ah, don't do that. Wouldn't want poor old Steve to get cut from the picture." You bring your hand back and let out a whine.
So torn between telling this guy to 'fuck off' but at the same time didn't want Steve to end up on the six-o-clock news. "Now, this game is simple. You answer and get it right, Steve lives, but if you get it wrong.." The stranger's voice trailed of and you swallow your fear.
"Okay, okay, just fucking ask me the questions." You snap into the phone and grip the item tightly in your right hand. Steve watches from his side of the glass as you battle with the stranger.
"Three questions. One right answer. Genre is Horror." God, you hated those movies. It was just a bunch of chicks running around getting murdered, but yet here you were living a real life scenario.
"First question. What is the name of the infamous killer in Halloween?" Shit. You had just went to see the movie with Eddie weeks ago. "Tick tock, sweetheart." You were so busy in thought the nickname went unnoticed by you.
Oh! It hit you. "Michael! Michael Myers!"
"Correct, looks like poor Steve might make it, after all." You look back at your best friend through the glass and he looked you in the eyes. He had to hold on just a bit longer.
"Next question. What movie did Freddy Kreuger make an appearance?" Shit another movie Eddie took you to. A pattern was beginning to form. Why had all these movies been something your friend practically begged you to go see with him.
"Uhmm… shit." You gasp scurrying to find an answer. Something about a street right? Nightmares? Fuck this was so hard. Nightmare Street? No that sounded fucking stupid. Fear Street. Elm Street. Wait! That was it. "Nightmare on Elm Street!"
"Good, now for the final question." Thank fuck you had made it this far. Steve was not going to die tonight and definitely not before admitting how you felt.
"Who is the original killer in Friday the 13th?" Finally a movie you actually enjoyed.
"His mother. Pamela Voorhees." You reply effortlessly and everything goes quiet. The line goes dead and you drop the phone hurrying to pull open the door and rush to aid Steve. Quick hands carefully rip the duck-tape of his mouth.
"Y/N?" You smile at him and hurriedly move on to undoing the tape wrapped tightly around his wrists. He watches every move you make in freeing him from the chair.
"Steve, as soon as I get this off we have to go inside and call the cops. There was some psycho on the phone asking me questions and… and threatening to kill you." You were so focused on setting him free you hadn't noticed the smirk that flashed across his face. Struggling with the last bit of tape, before just ripping it off you sigh in relief. "There."
Standing up and pulling Steve to his feet and out of the chair it was then you noticed something was off with your friend. "Steve?" He stares down at you practically emotionless. Okay, something was definitely going on. He suddenly reached forward and grabbed you by the waist and oh so effortlessly slings you over his shoulder.
"Steve!" You cried hands going to smack his shoulders, "What the fuck?!" He finally dropped you down on the couch and chuckled.
"Man, you are such a brat." Steve huffed his demeanor going from caring and sweet to sour in an instant, "Isn't that right, Eddie?" You look over your shoulder and find a figure standing their clad in all black robe, a ghost like mask hiding their face, a phone in their other hand.
"Sure is, Harrington." No, it couldn't be.
"Surprise, Y/N." The voice is to altered to be sure, but it's all made clear once the mask is removed. Familiar dark curls spring free and big brown eyes stare back you.
"E-Eddie?"
"God, that was fucking amazing!" he cheered tossing the mask aside and waltzing over to you and Steve. He leans over and gets dangerously close to your face, before turning to Steve.
"And you, pretty boy." His gloved hands grab him by the collar pulling him closer, "Were such a good actor. Had her believing you were in real danger." Their lips were dangerously close. Eddie closed the distance and kissed Steve you onlooking the scene with so many emotions crashing down on you at once.
Steve pulls back and looks up at Eddie longingly, "Good boy." He whispers dangerously low and then turns to you. Steve stands there by Eddie's side as he speaks. "You must be wondering exactly what's going on so I am going to let you in on something. Steve and I have been planning this for month's."
Months?
"Steve and I knew about your little crush on both of us and we thought about how fun it would be to make you ours." You look between the two boys. This wasn't the carefree 'freak' who played DnD and shredded on his guitar. This was a much darker side of him and Steve was feeding off of it.
"Why?"
"Because you belong to us." Steve confirmed earning a chuckle from Eddie.
"And you just had to be a fucking brat." He seethed reaching over and grabbing you by the throat pulling you up to be eye to eye with him.
"E-Eddie please." You whimper softly. Steve steps in behind you keeping you sandwiched between the two.
"Eddie, please." He mocked in your own voice. "Baby, the only thing you are going to be begging for is more."
"I don't understand, Eddie." Your voice is quiet. Every movement by Eddie leaves you on edge and he's eating up like it was his last meal. You played right their hands. The silence is cut short when the metalhead speaks up. Steve paying full attention and hanging on every word that fell from his lips.
"She doesn't understand, she says." Eddie tsks turning his gaze to Steve. The other chuckles at his statement his arms sneaking around your waist as Eddie steps closer his chest pressed flush against your own. "I think you do understand and just don't want to admit it."
Steve's left arm leaves the comfort of your waist to pass an object over to Eddie, something that glinted in the moonlight. He brings the object into your line of sight pressing the tip of the knife to your cheek the metal cool against your skin, letting out a whimper. "She's shaking." Steve comments to which Eddie responds with a chuckle.
"You scared, sweetheart?" He asks guiding the tip of the blade down your cheek and pressing the edge to your throat. One wrong move and you'd be done for.
"He asked a question, angel." Steve is kind enough to remind you.
"Y-Yes." Your response is pathetic really. Voice coming out high-pitched and whiny trying to convey the exact opposite of fear. However, everything was betraying you tonight. Including two people you felt had been friends.
"Good. It's time for another game then." Eddie's brown orbs flick towards Steve who took the hint once he stepped away.
You eye Eddie as he steps back away from you. "W-What kind of game?"
"Oh you will find out soon enough, sweetheart. First we are going to get somewhere more comfortable." Steve releases your waist and Eddie gives you a warning look before taking ahold of your forearm. He presses the knife to your side, the rings digging into the skin and most likely leaving a mark. Eddie practically manhandled you all while Steve stood there waiting. "Up the stairs and no funny business. We plan on fulfilling every desire we've had about this moment so I would not even try it." His voice was gruff and demanding. Something about it sent a very familiar warmth between your thighs.
Glancing back at Steve who followed behind the brunette as he ushered you upstairs. Once they step foot into the room Eddie lets out a chuckle, "So this is it huh?"
"Not what I pictured, Eds. You?"
"No, not at all. Of all the times we've been over none of us had ever stepped foot in this room. Now I see why." Eddie was being condescending about the contents of your room and you were enjoying it. Steve eyes the large bed covered with stuffed animals, ranging from bears, to bunny's, and even a little cat. The room was light in contrast to the boys. Beige walls with a pink carpet, and a huge flower rug laid out on the floor. Eddie shoved you forward towards the bed while Steve took a seat at the small desk in the corner of your room. Being shoved and ordered around was starting to get into your head and so slowly grew your arousal.
"Cute little room, princess." He compliments making your heart flutter, and filling your stomach with unnecessary butterflies.
The warnings from your mother flashed in your mind briefly. 'There's just something about that Munson boy, you should go for Steve, he seems nice.'
"Thank you." Eddie smirks lips curling into a thin smile as he looks past you and at Steve.
"What do you think, pretty boy?"
Steve's own heart jumps at the nickname and he responds. "Perfect room for a princess. But, I cannot help but wonder how many times she's gotten herself all wet and needy on that bed thinking about us." Your cheeks flush at the statement alone knowing full well it had happened way to many times.
Eddie sets the knife down and backs you against the edge of the bed, forcing you to sit down his leg wedged between your own. "Probably more times than she can count. Isn't that right, baby?" Dark brown eyes flick down to eyes you over as your response leaves you.
"Yes, Daddy." Steve sat back in the chair as he watched Eddie take his time warming you up.
"Such good manners." He praises fingers curling around your jaw lifting your gaze to stay on him. "Let's see if we can add to the count. Hmm?" You whimper eyes glancing down at the other hand that finds it's way to the thin waistband on your shorts. The pads of his fingers ghosting over your skin left you breathless.
His fingers easily find their way beneath those pretty lacy panties and to your clit. "Fucking knew it. She's soaked, Harrington."
"She likes it when you boss her around, Munson. She's dirty like that." Steve replied causing a light blush to dust your cheeks as Eddie's fingers work against your lips. He chuckles a breathy moan slips past your parted lips.
"Shit, who knew the prettiest girl in Hawkins was such a slut for the freak and some preppy jock?" You lock eyes with Eddie as he plays with your sensitive little bud drinking up the little moans. Suddenly the pleasure is lost by you as he removes hand and brings his fingers up his lips.
Steve keeps his eyes on Eddie as his fingers press past his lips tasting the slick that coated his fingers. Humming as the sweet taste invaded his senses pulling his finger from his mouth and sighing in content. "Fucking delicious. Harrington, come get a taste." Steve stands up and walks over expecting Eddie to place his fingers past his lips, but instead presses his lips to his. His tongue battles Steve's winning and pressing against his won. The tase of you overwhelming Steve's senses as he moans into the kiss. Eddie pulls back and stares down at his swollen lips swiping his thumb over his bottom lip smiling. "You have such pretty lips, baby boy." Eddie compliments sweetly.
God, they both were pretty. Everything about Eddie was especially attractive, from his big hands, to the tattoos and the rings he kept on each finger. Steve was just naturally a pretty boy, good looks, and perfect hair. The two notice your staring and Eddie chuckles. "Sorry, baby. We need to take care of you huh?" You nod weekly.
"I'm not gonna be gentle, sweetheart I have been waiting months after all." He reminds you. He climbs onto the bed and gently presses your back onto the mattress by your shoulders. "Steve's going to eat that sweet little pussy of yours while you suck my cock." As he speaks Steve is quick to fall to his knees and tugs your shorts down so he can get a full view. Eddie is above you legs on either side of your chest as he unbuckles his belt.
"God, Eds. She's got such a cute little cunt." Steve sighs fishing the panties to the side as his fingers work your sensitive folds. His fingers felt good, but you desperately wanted his mouth. Steve presses a kiss to the sensitive bud awaiting his attention and laps at your folds like a starving man.
Eddie pulls his jeans and boxers down just enough to free his cock a sigh of relief escaping him. His fingers tap your cheek and you look up at the swollen cock before you. "Come on, princess. Open up need to fill up that mouth." You whine in anticipation as his cock stares back at you. Parting your lips the brunettes stuffs your mouth all full with his shaft.
Steve's fingers dig into the soft flesh of your thighs as Eddie throat fucks you on the bed above him. "F-Fuck. Such a hot little mouth you've got, sweetheart." Eddie gasps hands digging in the pink cotton sheets, beneath you. His hips jerk forward and press his cock further down your throat. He stares down at you eyes dark with desire. You looked so pretty choking on his cock, spit covering his length, and drool dripping down the corners of your mouth surely ruining the man's jeans.
Steve on the other hand was fully diving in to your pussy, tongue diving into your walls, getting ever last drop making your toes curl and knees week. Thank goodness you weren't standing up. The sweet, wet sounds filled the room.
Eddie admired the way his cock disappeared down your throat which each thrust of his hips. "God, you are such a filthy thing." He groaned using one hand to balance himself as the other found it's way to your hair forcing you to take more and more each time. Steve on the other hand was working extra hard to try and get you to cum. He wanted to taste ever last drop of you. He could feel your walls clenching around his tongue and were sure you would cum any second. He pulled away replacing his tongue with his fingers. "Hey, Eds. I think she's getting ready to cum. Her little pussy is tight and completely soaked."
"Fuck, she's a little slut, getting off on completely being filled." Eddie curses picking up the pace brutally throat-fucking you.
"Yeah?" Steve chuckles. "Bet she'll come if we keep telling her how well she's taking us."
Eddie groaned eyes rolling into the back of his head as he gets close to the edge. "Fucking, shit. She is." He sighs lips parted as he moans, "My dirty little girl." His fingers wrap around your throat making your thoughts disappear. A light, fuzzy feeling washes over you at the lack of oxygen. Then you feel it. The pressure in your abdomen is building, the tingly feeling pools in your tummy as Steve works your clit.
"Come on, princess. Go ahead an cum for, Steve, yeah?" The brunette above you encourages and you let out the filthiest moan muffled by the cock stuffing your mouth. Bach arched and whole body shuddering as your first orgasm of the night crashes over you. Eddie smirked down at you, "Good girl." He praises fingers loosening up on your throat. You could tell Eddie was ready to come just by the way his dick was twitching on your tongue. You hummed around him, tongue swirling around the tip bringing him over the edge.
"Holy shit." Steve whispered watching the scene before him unfold. Eddie's head fell back as his lips parted a string of curses flowing from him as he pulled you to the very hilt of his shaft. Your nose filled with the familiar scent of smoke and musk. He came down your throat and held you there until he was done. Steve watches as some of the cum leaks from your lips as Eddie slowly pulls you off his dick. You look up at him and chuckles, "Swallow, baby. Take all of Daddy's cum."
Steve watches as you willfully obey every word. "Open." Eddie demands wanting to check and see if you'd listened. Mouth open tongue hanging out as he tilts your chin to inspect you then lets go shoving your head back into the mattress. "Good fucking girl."
The other is breathless as he watches Eddie climb of the bed cock hanging limp between his leg. "You turn, pretty boy. Let's see how you handle her." You sit up and look between both boys, but Eddie stops you. "One sec, sweetheart." He reaches for the knife a quickly works at cutting away the tank-top you'd been sporting. Oh well, it had already been ruined anyway. He quickly works off your panties and tossed them off to the side leaving you completely bare. Steve walks over to you unbuckling his belt and quickly working his cock out of his jeans.
"Now, Steve. I'm gonna teach you how to properly handle a girl like Y/N." Eddie instructs him as he ushers you off the bed and down to your knees before Steve. He sits comfortably at the edge of your bed and watches his boyfriend stand before you cock standing hard and proud. He reaches into his pocket and fishes out a cigarette lighting it and taking hit. Eddie relishes in the numbing affects as the nicotine rushes through his senses, blowing the smoke through his nose as he locks eyes with Steve. He pushes the butt to the corner of his mouth as he takes a fistful of your hair yanking your head back.
"Fuck, Munson." Steve sighs watching as the other curls his fingers in your hair putting you on full display. Eddie chuckled as he watched Steve's cock twitch at the sight. "You gonna keep starin' pretty boy or you going to fuck her throat?"
Steve whined and pressed the tip of his aching cock to your lips, and you open your mouth taking him down your throat so well. "Take her by the hair, baby boy. It'll help her enjoy the experience." Steve's fingers replace Eddie's grip on your hair and you moan around him as his nails dig into your scalp. Eddie sits back taking another hit of the cigarette in his mouth as he watched, blowing the smoke out into Steve's face chuckling as the boy coughed.
"Come on, Steve. Fuck her throat like you mean it." He ordered hands wandering past your shoulders and down to your exposed breast. Eddie's fingers brush past the sensitive nipples and you cry out around the cock muffling your noises.
"Fuck.." Steve grunted hips thrusting forward at a much harsher pace. His gaze is down on you as his cock fills your mouth, drool pooling at the corners of your mouth. Eddie smirks as he takes on last drag of the cigarette inhaling it through his longs and huffing it out. The smoke surrounds you and Steve and you inhale the scent. You moan around his shaft tongue swirling around the tip of his cock. His hips stutter and he throws his head back, pushing you further down to the hilt of his cock.
"F-Fuck.." He breathes, the scent of smoke and musk filling your senses. His cock twitched in your mouth and Eddie chuckles. He takes the cigarette he was nursing and douses it out on the nightstand. His fingers take each nipple between his fingers and pinch them. Earning another moan from you sending a warmth to your core.
"God, fuck.. Eddie I'm.." Steve huffs getting closer and closer to that edge. You can feel him pulsating against your tongue. Eddie takes notice of the labored breathing as Steve's thrusts become lazy almost slowed. His fingers retreat from your breasts and find their way back to your shoulders.
"You close baby boy?" Eddie questions. Steve locks eyes with him and whimpered.
"Yes." Steve answers pathetically much to Eddie's pleasure.
"You wanna cum, pretty boy? Hmm?" You had never experienced something so erotic as this. You were practically dripping due to the exchange above you. Steve whined knowing full well what the brunette wanted.
"God, Eds. Please let me cum." He begs eyes locking with his dark brown orbs. His cheeks flush a bright pink when Eddie replies.
"Then you better ask me nicely. Let me hear those words, baby." He smirks and Steve whined desperately, but obeyed.
"Please, I've been such a good boy. I've done everything you asked, let me cum." Eddie chuckled reaching forward and prying you off Steve's cock with a loud 'pop' ringing through the room.
"Yeah? You wanna cum?" The brunette asked. Steve nods glancing back at you before turning his eyes back on Eddie.
"Where? My mouth or hers?" Steve's breath hitch's as he thinks it over. As pretty as you would look taking his load. Steve wanted Eddie.
"You, Eds. I want your mouth on my cock." He replies and something about the scene unfolding before you had quite an effect on you. Something about the desperation lacing Steve's words as he begged for Eddie.
The man does not hesitate as he takes your place down on his knees before Steve. Eddie was probably the only guy in the world who could look pretty while sucking another man's cock. He takes the shaft in his hand glistening with your spit and takes the head into his mouth with ease. Your fingers travel down to your soaking clit and begin to rub little circles around the sensitive bud biting your lip as you watch Eddie take Steve's cock like a champ.
"F-Fuck, Eds." He cooed down at the brunette. Eddie bobs his head up it down pumping his cock at the base. Your flingers move faster in rhythm with Eddie's strokes. He hallows out his cheeks and takes Steve all the way down his throat. Steve's head lolls back as his hips stutter forward a grunt escaping his parted lips.
"Fuck, Eddie! I'm--" Eddie swallows every drop of cum, enjoying the taste of it on his tongue and slowly pulls off looking up at Steve through half-lidded eyes. He locks eyes with you and Eddie smirks.
"You liked that princess? Getting off to me making our pretty boy cum down my throat? Hmm?" His tongue darts out to lick his lips as he crawls over to you on all fours. You stop your movements as Eddie reaches down and shoves your hands away. He presses his lips to yours and you can taste Steve's cum mixed with saliva as his tongue pry's at your lips.
His fingers find your entrance and slides two fingers inside making you gasp. Eddie pulls away and chuckles, "We'll have to do this more often princess." He grins watching as you spread your legs wider for him hips rocking down onto his fingers. Basically fucking his fingers like it was his cock.
Eddie chuckled, "Look at her, pretty boy. So desperate to get fucked she's riding my fingers." Steve chuckled taking a seat on the bed as it was his turn to watch Eddie get what he really came here for. You. He had been wanting to fuck you since that first day senior year. Now here he was about to finally get what he'd been wanting.
He shoves you back onto the carpet hissing as your head hit the floor. His fingers still inside you as he crawled over you. "Such a fucking little slut." He hissed at you.
"M'not." You argued meekly reaching up to grip Eddie's forearms. He removes his fingers and you whine. The metalhead chuckles, "Don't worry baby. I'm gonna take care of that pretty little hole." As soon as the world left his lips his cock was filling you up. His arms holding him up as he fucked you on the floor. Steve grips his own cock and strokes it in time with Eddie's thrusts. He was relentless making sure you felt every inch and managing to hit that golden spot each time making you see stars.
"That's it, slut. Fucking take my cock like the greedy princess you are." He grunts making sure you knew how much of a slut you were for them and only them. Steve's grunts filled the background as Eddie practically growled at you. That same feeling from earlier was building up once more and Eddie could feel it.
"Already gunna cum on my cock. Fucking dirty bitch." Eddie sneered hips slapping against your own. You throw your head back moaning, as your walls flutter around his cock, and your second orgasm crashes over you.
"Fuck-Oh, god Eddie!" You cry out nails digging his forearms as he fucks you through your orgasm, Making you ride that high for as long as possible, until his own cock twitched, being completely milked by you and came deep within your cunt.
"That's it, baby. Take it. Fuck." He groans followed by Steve who's cumming in the palm of his hand as he watched Eddie fuck the living daylights out of you.
Eddie sighs completely relieved and totally spent, pulling out of your aching cunt leaving you shuddering. He leans down and kisses your forehead brushing away the stray hairs stuck to your face. "You were such a good girl, baby. So good for me." He kisses your cheeks and helps you climb into his lap letting him hold you whilst Steve takes his leave to go clean himself up.
"Mm, thank you Eddie." He chuckles, "You're welcome princess. But we are seriously going to have to come over more often, I'm already addicted to that little pussy of yours." He whispers earning a hum from you as your eyes flutter shut and his heartbeat lulls you to sleep.

Tumblr media
Reply too big to keep in replies, forgive me
Flash emulation won't actually work with the way the site is coded. It's really difficult to truly illustrate HOW fucked the site is if you aren't familiar with it.
So the flash games are INTEGRATED into the site. They don't just play. They send scores and those scores are validated by the site and then affect the game in real time by awarding points. Thats backend stuff and it seems EASY. But flash EMULATION will not really let that process work. Not blanket. Ruffle is a browser add on for flash and you can play some games with it but every game has needed to be worked manually and individually to try and get it to play correctly and to let it send scores.
Here, so like. Last year you may recall having heard about the data breach. It was a long time coming. Neopets has terrible security and always has. So someone got backend access, downloaded the server and this had all of the usernames and passwords ever used. Were they hashed? Yes. Was the hashkey stored in the server and thus also available to the hacker? Also yes.
As a result neopets finally moved from http to https. Great!
Not for flash games.
Every game has links in it right. Backend stuff. Mechanics. But all those fucking links redirect to http, not https. And you cannot change that without editing the game and you can't do THAT without a program that makes flash elements. So they're basically unfixable on site. On one fell swoop, every single flash game broke at once. You could play them but scores were now unsendable.
The workaround neopets USERS found was, I shut you not, using developer tools to modify the way your entire computer communicates with the internet
Tumblr media
"oh, that seems simple"
Look the fuck at what is IN the js file
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
It is 538 lines! It is manually overriding the links used in these games. This IS hacking. Technically this is against the rules, it's just not being enforced.
Tumblr media
Don't worry, I'm terrified.
The workaround before this STILL had you download a new browser, modify it, take your internet offline and manually reinstall an old version of flash to create a jury rigged flash browser. Oh my God this is so dangerous and we Still do this. Did I do all this fiddler stuff? Yes! I did! Because neopets is very much like transformers in that there is a small user base but every single person there is fucking insane!
So.... Emulation is not a solution. Every game needs to be individually ground up REMADE in html5. And you can't just import the old game and tweak it. It has to be made from scratch. That's why there are so few html5 games. It's incredibly difficult and time consuming and probably not all that worth it when there's so much to be done.
This is what I mean when I say the site is virtually unplayable. This is the kind of shit that we have to do to make the site work. You basically cannot play unless you are accessing fan sites and communities to find resources that can offer fixes to everything that is broken. There are legitimately pages of this website that have not been updated since 1999. Until like two years ago you still could not say "gay" on the forums because the chat filter caught it. And do you know why?? Staff literally did not know where the chat filter was stored in the backend. They could not find it. The site traded hands and staff so much that no one remained who knew where it was.
There is LITERALLY a guy who found backend access several years ago and can, whenever he wants, get into the server and look at everything. HE could have stolen those passwords (which the other hacker was selling for $10,000!!) At any time he wanted. Instead he just made an anonymous reddit account where he would post info about how the fucking site works and why things are broken and "yeah they lied about fixing this its still broken" or "yeah actually they secretly shadowbanned a bunch of people from submitting scores to the big yearly event next year if you dm me I can tell you if you're on the list"
And he IS STILL THERE!!!! HE STILL HAS SERVER ACCESS!!! ITS BEEN YEARS AND THEY HAVENT KICKED HIM OUR BECAUSE THEY STILL HAVENT FOUND THE BREACH!!!!!!!
This. THIS is what staff is dealing with. THIS is the absolute shit storm they need to tackle if they want this site to work. The way pets are stored, the way accounts work, all of those things cannot be changed without causing severe issues conflicting with users accounts, pets, items, and all of that was originally coded in 1998/1999 and it cannot be changed. It cannot be modernized. They need to find ways to integrate old code that cannot be changed into a site coded for a modern internet. That is beyond the scope of normal site building.
All that is to say... I'm hesitant to believe things will improve, not because I don't think staff wants to, not because I don't think they have the drive and the passion to throw everything they have at it. Just because... Jesus dude I don't know if they actually have the resources to fix this mess at all.

Hi! Big big biiiiiiiiig fan of your obikin work over on twitter, both for the naughty bits :3 and your art style like omg I love love loooooove the angular character design and the way u colour with scribbles hidden in it to look like it’s pencil coloured and the double lineart over (is it intentional or aesthetic thing?)
I wanted to ask a question: I noticed whenever I see your twitter art and tumblr art even tho it’s the same fan art some of the stuff on tumblr is slightly different like obi-wan/anakin’s face is more structured on tumblr version or slight change of pose or adding new things like obi-wan’s red lingerie in your obi-wan’s history of bras/lingerie while he’s naked on twitter version. Do you purposely change it for tumblr?
Hi there!! What a wonderful message to receive 🥺🙏 First of all, thank you for such kind words ❤️ I hope you don’t mind I answer both of your asks here!!
My art-style has been mutating through the years since I graduated and nowadays I’ve found a nice balance with this sketchy one I’m currently using (definitely influenced by Mikael Ross, his traditional cartoonish style is a huge inspo for me when i do comics). but I love trying new methods and switching things up every now and then. And yes, the double lineart is intentional!! I like how it gives some dimension and dynamism to the anatomy and makes it feel like animation 💞
And you are very observant!!! Bc I definitely change things in my art when I post them to different sites. part of it is because I’m kind of a perfectionist, and once i post something on twitter i start noticing all the mistakes and tangents and I just know i won’t post it on tumblr until i feel satisfied and fix things or re-do them. on the other hand, tumblr is very strict with the nudity stuff and i keep getting flagged every time i post something slightly suggestive (or maybe someone is reporting me 👀 won’t be the first time tbh) so i gotta tone things down, like adding obi-wan’s red lingerie in that one fanart while on tumblr he’s showing ass and cock HAHAHA. so yep, twitter gets ass and tits while tumblr gets the fixed 2.0 stuff. but in some way i kind of like the idea of posting different things on each site, like little easter eggs 🥰
I’m so excited for you to participate on the #UnderTheJediUniform tag 🙏 also tag me if you do it cuz my shadowban sometimes hides some of the art in the tag 😭 it started as a little idea and it warms my heart seeing people doing their drawings or fics or hcs about obi-wan in lingerie 💘 But take it easy specially if you are coming back from a creative burnout after uni, i was there too and it was no fun at all. sometimes is a way for our brain to tell us to take a break and nurture ourselves from different things other than drawing, like looking at different artists or photographers, watching movies, reading books and from life itself. and when you less expect it, you will suddenly get struck with the need to grab a pen 😊
thank you again for this lovely message, it really made my day!!! as you said, there‘s always shit happening and disgusting losers trying to drag you down in this fandom, but messages like this and the wonderful people that i have met through obikin is an enough reason to stay and keep doing what i want ❤️

🤠 howdy everyone! I've been thinking about some specific characters recently, but figured it may be easiest to make an RP post in regards to a more generalized search! I'm a 21+ college student, and I'm hoping to find 18+ partners to write with over on discord.
some genres I enjoy include...
- slice of life (I like to include a bit of this in ALL of my RPs, so keep that in mind! I'm a big friends to lovers fan, as well as any tropes that can be mixed with that!)
- action (i.e. mafia, spies, assassins, etc.)
- adventure (especially in the medieval fantasy realm, but modern fantasy can lend itself well to adventures as well)
- fantasy (medieval, modern, OR futuristic! I'm a big fantasy fan. give me an adventuring party/found family and I will love you forever)
- mystery (would love to make a big cast for a murder mystery scenario!)
- celebrity plots (hidden relationship from the paparazzi, forced into a relationship for publicity, idols, etc.)
- school-based settings (especially when combined with modern fantasy, action, or mystery!)
this is a broad list, I know, but I've got a ton of different characters who could fit into these categories and fluctuating muse for all of them! since there's so much I enjoy writing about, it's easier to list what I am NOT interested in...
❌ smut-heavy plots. I always prefer STORY first! smut can get pretty boring if that's all we're writing.
❌ heavy dead dove themes. I'm certainly open to angst and a bit of dark stuff here and there, but I don't want it to be the entire plot.
❌ being made to play an aggressive dom top. or, in a similar vein, being made to write large age gaps. power imbalance plots in general just make me uncomfortable. give-and-take is what makes things interesting. if you're a writer who will only write bottoms (INCLUDING dom bottoms!), I probably won't be interested in writing smut with you. if you have interesting characters to bring to the table, I'll consider fade-to-blacks. if you're looking for smut, a willingness to switch is a requirement.
❌ inactive plotters. if you send me a one-word response while we're plotting together, I'll drop you right there.
❌ wanted FCs. I won't tell you what your character should look like, so don't tell me what mine should look like.
❌ anything from one-liners to semi-lit. I consider myself advanced literate to novella, which means one discord message is my minimum.
❌ being bothered constantly for a response. I have classes and work, and I don't always have the ability to write every day. I'll be respectful of your time, so please be respectful of mine.
I'm fairly adaptable when it comes to pairings. I tend to write M characters (for MxM or MxF), but I also have a few F characters I could toss out (mostly for FxF)! I have a real wide variety in terms of characters, from young to middle-aged, "normal" to magical. I don't have strong preferences in terms of type of FC (drawn, real, or none), so I'll adapt to whatever you bring to the table. the most important things to me are PLOT, CHARACTERS, and DETAIL. I want something plot-driven and character-focused first!
if this interests you, PLEASE drop me a message here on Tumblr or over on discord (tired_inspired). don't expect me to reach out to you first based on this post, because I've been shadowbanned too many times for trying to do so. thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you! ^-^

hiii if you're seeing this, i'm sorry for having so many accounts. tumblr keeps shadowbanning me and i think i finally found the solution, even tho it's stupid. i wont bore u w the details but i'll put my fix under the cut if you're curious
regardless, i'm gonna slowly do all the stuff i had going on in hopes to get this hobby back up n running! ty for ur patience and dealing w this chaos
so it seemed like whenever i logged into tumblr on the ios app, it would ban me then? idk why specifically, but it seemed to do it every time that happened.
SO instead of depraving myself of the app bc i love scrolling thru, im making the blog one last time (idk if i have more attempts in me) withe the word 'sins' censored from the url lol i cant really avoid the other trigger words on my replies so im hoping posting incest, smut, and dark themes, wont effect the ban
on top of that, for good measure, im actually using an oldddd blog lol this is a recycled one from 2019 if you could believe that. so hopefully this works itself out and i dont need to do this all over again
i mean, pls tumblr, dont shadowban this 4+ year old account

Guide to Tumblr by a Redditor
Dashboard = feed.
Necroing is encouraged.
Puns are required. /jk
The url you created first is your primary or main blog. When you like, reply, or send messages, your primary is what people will see.
You can change the look and url, and you could delete all your posts, but anything more requires total account deletion. Tumblr likes to brigade sometimes. It's annoying when it's your primary.
There are 2 ways to use tumblr:
Throw caution to the wind and use your primary for everything. Accept that someone will brigade you for something ridiculous at some point. It's a right of passage.
Create side blogs like we made throwaways. I have a primary and this baby blog. Some people create fandom specific or meme or fashion blogs. Keep in mind you can make and delete them as much as you want, but you should be reasonable about it. Otherwise, you'll be caught by the filter.
Asks
Keep these off for now. Cuts down on brigading significantly. When sending an ask, remember the human. Also remember that tumblr isn't run by mods who've seen it all. A lot of blogs are run by 13 year olds.
Spam Filter
Tumblr can be the worst automod you've ever met. Especially when you're new, especially if you're unverified, especially if you do create 10000 side blogs.
The filter will either say, "oops! I'm glitching!" (lies) or it will outright shadowban you. To test this, write a post, tag it, then go to the tag and filter by latest. If you are not there, you're shadowbanned!
It also does this to people who post links or images, but not always. A minor form of shadowbanning is hiding your reblog in the notes.
While we're here, please do report genuine bots. Most of them use malicious links. Top right of every post.
Pinned Posts
You only get one. Choose wisely! Useful for adding info about you/your blog, kinda like a wiki. Don't feel pressured to add anything you don't like.
Liking vs Replying vs Reblogging
A like is an upvote, except everyone can see your primary. It sends good vibes. Some people get angry when they only get liked. Ignore them. Do what you want.
Replying is when you have a small addition. Try not to argue in the replies. This is considered rude. You can always @ the person in a reblog.
Reblogging shares the post to your blog. You can choose which blog at the top of the screen. You can also queue it, so it comes out later. We do this to prevent flooding people's dashboards and inboxes. (There is a debate on whether flooding is okay or not.)
Tagging
When you post or reblog, you can add any tags you want. If it is your OC, then it will show up in the sitewide tags. Supposedly, only the first 5 tags work, so make them count.
Even if you don't tag, your post could end up in the related posts, based on the content.
For reblogs, a tag is an easy way to make a side comment, or make your post searchable on your own blog. It also serves as a content warning.
When warning, tag the main word without frills. If warning for a bug, write "bugs" and "insects" and nothing else. Tumblr's filter considers these to be different things: cw bugs, tw bugs, bugs cw. Don't be a jerk, like the filter. Just write "bugs" and "insects" so people don't have to have 10 mile long filter lists.
Common cws: creepy crawlies, bedroom shit, politics, abuse, bigotry, horror, sarcasm, and unreality.
A Filter for Your Squicks
Good news! You can filter out stuff that bothers you! Look in settings for the preferences menu. Content will filter out anything that contains the word. So "hot" would filter out "eachother". Tags will filter out only the exact tags. Note: there appears to be a limit to how much you can filter.
Blocking
Happens all the time, happens for no reason, just move on. People will literally block you because the algorithm was showing them your posts too much. If you are blocked, tumblr will claim their blog does not exist, or say you cannot reblog from them. It likes the "oopsie!" approach for some reason.
On the flip side, go ahead and block! Have fun with it! We are our own moderators, here.
Blocking prevents you from seeing their posts, and they cannot reply, reblog, or see you. One exception- if someone else reblogs you, they can see it.
DNI
Means "do not interact." It's mostly a preachy statement but you should honor it as much as possible. The longer the list, especially if it mentions fandom shit, the more likely they're a brigader.
Screen shotting
Generally considered rude, associated with harassment. (If you see a "callout," this is usually code for brigading. Feel free to block the subject...or everyone involved.)
Exceptions for screen shotting tags to share a clever remark, though copy pasting is better.
I will admit that everyone loves to screenshot horrible/ridiculous people, but we all know we should at least cut the url out first.
Image Descriptions
It is nice to add these. If someone adds them to your post, copy their text and put it in the original. Alt text is preferred. Do not add alt text and an image description.
How to write one: describe the most important parts of the image. You don't want excessive detail, but you do want to get the point across. For example:
[Image: burning Elmo meme. He has the reddit snoo's face. Text, "burn, baby, burn." /end]
If it is a simple comic, describe the people involved, and name/nickname them. After that, stick with text only, unless something relevant happens. Example:
[Comic: a big bad in a suit talks to a group of people using reddit avatars. Background is a building labeled Reddit Incorporated.
Big bad: well, if you don't like it, you can just leave!
Group: okay.
Big bad: what? No! Come back here!
Group: *settles into their new space with smiles*
Reddit Inc: *becomes old and decrepit*
Big bad: oh no! /end]
For more complicated comics, use Panel 1, Panel 2, etc, and describe the whole thing.
For recognizable figures, you can say their name and what they're doing/wearing if relevant.
For art...honestly, I hate describing art. Do what you can. Say what they used (oil, pencil, digital, etc.) Say if there's a tree, or a castle. Describe the cat and the mermaid. Etc. With this one, you want to be as detailed as possible, because the whole point is to enjoy the experience.
Politics
We have all kinds here. It is more anti-ableist and anti-sexist in general. Please keep to the Reddiquette.

a couple days ago the lovely @nancywheeeler​ tagged me to do an ao3 wrapped here! i have had a Very busy weekend so i am only now getting to actually posting, but here are my belated responses:
Works published: 5 at the moment (with at least 2 more i’ll be putting up before the end of the year; possibly one or two more than that if i can get my act together and finish up the treat(s) i’ve been chipping away at in exchange to my main assignments in a couple holiday exchanges. busy end of the year for me!)
Words written: 41510 posted this year so far—more than i thought!
Hits: 3647 on my 2022 fics
Bookmarks: 118
Most popular by kudos: Do my friends think I’m dying? (or do I just need to go to sleep?), my singular to-date contribution to the ted lasso/colin hughes fandom and first foray into redditfic (which by the way was SUCH a blast to write that i think i’m going to have to do it again sometime soon. i ought to be more sorry about that than i am)
Most hits: look at the desperate man (omg rip to this fic... worked on it for a little bit this summer when i was feeling particularly angsty about Some Stuff i was dealing with. ran out of angst steam halfway through the final chapter because my life improved lol, got re-possessed by various locked tomb wips around nona release day, and now i kind of just don’t ever want to look at it anymore. maybe i’ll finish it someday?)
Longest: same as previous
Shortest: shovel talk (in f major) (most of which was hurriedly written in one day as a last-hurrah before nona came out to smash my entire life into bits!)
Most comments: inside problems which people have been VERY nice to me about agghhhh
Fic that made me cry: any discussion about the fics that did maximum emotional damage to me MUST mention syntheseas’ INCREDIBLY ambitious and well-written nothing but dark and sound, which i reread following its most recent update. if you’re a locked tomb fan and you’re not already keeping up with this fic... well you need to be. basically. shoutout also to @forjodssake​’s feeling good was easy when he sang the blues, which i just read this thursday and have STILL not recovered from—AMAZING character work!!!
Fic that made me smile: so many! but my favorite comfort read for the last year and change has been @nancywheeeler​‘s four weddings and no funeral. melts my heart every time! cannot recommend highly enough :)
Gifts: does this mean gifts given or gifts received? unclear. anyway in terms of gifts given—do my friends think i’m dying was my tribute to @nancywheeeler​‘s excellent good old-fashioned lover boy, and i’ve got exchange fics i’ll be posting for a few people shortly. for gifts received, there’s whatever comes out of those exchanges!
Collaborations: none this year—or ever before, actually! BUT i am very very interested in the prospect… 👀 friends/mutuals/likeminded individuals active in any of my fandoms, if you’ve ever got an Idea you want to bang on about together or are particularly interested in fleshing out any of the half-formed Concepts i toss out into the void, hit me up and maybe we can make something happen! (well, hit me up whenever my dms are working again, anyway… the shadowban glitch which i’ve been living under for going on a MONTH now is a curse upon this earth)
Events taken part in: yuletide 2022, and the 2022 locked tomb holiday exchange!
thanks again em for the tag! in turn i will tag @aberfaeth​, @rnanqo​, @palamedes-sextus​, and anyone else who’s interested! (and who actually sees this—unsure if any of you will get a notification when i post this, due to the aforementioned shadowban :/)

hi
please help a trans disabled system stay afloat
hi it's me. mr. ebeg. i’m here to beg on tumblr dot corn.
i’ve been trying to find consistent work for over a year and have had a couple interviews or other promising stuff, but nothing’s turned out. i keep trying to do commissions of multiple types (art, writing, and more), but i’ve literally gone 5+ months without a client sometimes. when i do get commissions it’s usually not for very much. i’m selling things i own online and locally. i’m borrowing money from cashapp and racking up extra fees because i can’t pay it back yet. i DO have section 8 now, which pays most of rent, i still have $30 a month to pay (fee for my pet cat) but genuinely even $30 is starting to become insanely hard to get. i’ll start getting food stamps at the end of this month (on 11/29/2022), so food will be ok after that
i’m literally trying every option and still nothing is keeping me afloat and i can’t fucking live this way anymore so i’m just gonna become the ebeg guy!
tdlr: i very desperately need help from anyone able to give if i'm going to be able to pay my rent and not be evicted next month!
i really just need at least $30 a month for what’s left of rent but would like to try to raise $185
- 185 is the average (give or take a bit) amount of bills that i have each month. not much in the long run, but still literally way out of my budget. i am frequently having to just let bills go unpaid until things get threatened to get cut off because i cannot make enough fucking money and i’m so tired. if i could get $185 i’d actually have some breathing room and maybe be able to save money. but also i’m aware that’s kind of a lot. beggars can’t be choosers, anything helps.
please don’t tag as don4tion or boost like that or tumblr will shadowban the post
Tumblr media
bonus details about my situation under the if you care:
i also used to work with a place that’s supposed to help disabled people find work, but i finally quit working with them because they’d treated me very badly. (not gonna go too into depth about that bc it was genuinely traumatizing, but for reference my breaking point was when i arrived to a meeting to meet the new counselor they wanted me to work with since my old one left the company - my FIFTH fucking one in the time i’d been there - and... they literally didn’t even tell her that she’d be taking me onto her caseload. so she didn’t show up. i tried very hard for multiple months to still work with them because i DO need accommodations, and... was treated too poorly to make ANY progress and this particular event just broke me man.)
last month, i got some more money from my late tax return and i thought i’d be okay for a while because i could pay off bills. and then. an error then caused my bills to come out twice, putting me 200 fucking dollars in the negative and i spent the entire month having to beg my friends for money for food and to get out of the negative so i could pay that stupid fucking $30.  i had to contact my racist/transphobic jerk dad who i’d cut contact with because he doesn’t respect me being transgender at all, to ask him for the last $50. this was all extremely stressful to the point that i basically stopped sleeping - spent several days up all night (not in a row ofc but it still sucked), kept not being able to sleep until 7 am, etc. it was honest to god the worst time i’ve had in. a very long time.
basically i’m So Fucking Tired. the stress never ends and i need any help anyone can give me.
i’ve kind of given up on doing commissions of stuff but if you donate and would like to see examples of the fanfics or graphic design stuff i make, just send me a dm or something

Been active in this fandom for about 2 years. I get little to no traction for my VP. I’ve tried reblogging several times throughout the day, I’ve tried posting during the “most active” times, nothing. I get maybe 2 friends who like it, maybe a single reblog. My stuff never did too well back then either, but since moving from console to PC, things changed slightly but now I’m back to nothing. Does anyone have… ya know a way to help with getting traction because I post in every single CP77 tag I can think of and nothing
First of all, it may be a technical problem, meaning ТumbIr is just being a bitch to you. If it's the thing I would suggest creating another blog, contacting support (search shadowban), or even moving to Тwitter.
If it's not the case... The following may sound rough. I apologize in advance.
If 2 years of VPing and interacting gave you nothing, it's logical to conclude that either the quality of your VP is bad or the quality of your interaction with others is bad. Let's not talk about this fandom's tendency for ganging and circle jerking, because there is nothing we can do with it.
First one is hardest to accept. If you're not sure you can judge your own work objectively, ask your friends for an honest feedback. For the side opinions inside of fandom I think I'd go with event accounts here, like cyberhanami, big bang, cptober2077, secret santa, because people who run fandom wide events seem capable of keeping bullshit away from biz.
Speaking of the second, if you perceive reblogging and posting as a technical thing for gathering audience, people will feel it and resist it. Such techniques work on Instagram, when you post pretty pictures, subscribe to thousands and hundreds subscribe to you back. Tumblr and game photography is different, there are way fewer people here. Be sincere in your communication. Find little creators similar to you (!) who you really like and support them generously, they may support you in return, they may become your friends. Find fandom events such as mentioned above and participate in them, it will make you visible for other participants.

Hiya! This is a c!Wilbur roleplay blog run by @re-bi-vebur​ and @wilbursoothouse​​​ for funsies. I’ve remade because I got shadowbanned on my other one. Send an ask if you want, I’ll do my best to respond. The only thing I ask is to keep in mind I’m not gonna be TOTALLY in character, since this is more for the lolz than anything else.
Icon | Blog header | Pinned post header
Some notes about the character:
-Songbird!Wilbur goes by any pronouns and likes any title (Miss, sir, ma’am, etc.)
-Adding on to the above, he is trans in every direction. He was given his boobs back after asking his mother very nicely on pride month. He can adjust the size as he pleases
-Songbird!Wilbur is a blue jay avian 
-Songbird!Wilbur has bipolar disorder and experiences psychosis, which is why he hallucinates
-As of April 29th, 2023, songbird!Wilbur has fused with Ghostbur (@newlmanburgs)
-Current Design | Pre-fusion design | Full wing design
OOC Notes: 
-If you need anything tagged, send an ask and let me know
-I don’t really roleplay with complete strangers! I prefer to keep to myself and my group of friends
-Please don’t send me copious amounts of asks about other blogs. Like, don’t send a bunch of asks telling songbird about whatever Tubbo or Phil or Techno are doing/saying. One or two is fine, but when it’s all I get, it’s kind of discouraging
-PLEASE SEND ME FANART!!! If you make fanart, please tag it with bedrockverse and tag either this blog or my main (@/re-bi-vebur)!! I love seeing fanart so much and I don’t wanna miss any of your lovely works!!
-This is a canon divergent blog. c!Wilbur and Songbird!Wilbur have gone through different things, therefore Songbird is going to act different than canon c!Wilbur. Try not to compare the two too much
-As of the fusion, songbird!Wilbur’s chats have gone from rats to...well, a chat! It’s in his comm. You guys are now like an audience watching him, meaning you have little physical effect on songbird!Wilbur/the world
-Threads are gonna be slower and a bit more far between due to mods being more busy! Please be patient :)
Tags are gonna be under the cut
General tags:
songbird chirps: In-character speaking tag
ooc: out of character speaking tag
quoth the raven…: tag for asks

Anonymous:
Do you have any advice on how to start an rp blog? I feel like there's so much to do and so many specific things, it looks intimidating, but I really want to get into it (and your blog seems like a safe space to ask as a baby in the matter)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hi! Thanks you for asking and for trusting. I do admit that rping on tumblr can look daunting and there is a series of things that are considered “etiquette” that might not be obvious for newcomers. And the only way to learn is to ask, right? As I’m not sure if you would like something more specific or a step-by-step, I’m going to go through the whole process.
note: this is a repost from an ask in a more reblog-friendly format
1.       Setting up the blog
You might want to make a new e-mail account for each blog you want. I recommend making a gmail/google account, so you may be able to use other services and associate them with your blog. I’ll go into more details in a minute.
Some people would rather have a personal blog and then making the RP blog as a side-blog. Or a “hub” blog and many side-blogs so they have everything centralized. The downside is that you can’t follow people with side-blogs, only the main – and some rpers are a little suspicious of personal blogs, so if you intend to go this route it might be a good idea to state somewhere in your blog that you have a RP blog.
Tip : It isn’t said too often, but I recommend saving your blog’s e-mail and password somewhere, maybe a flashdrive or even google drive. This way, if something happens you will be able to retrieve your account.
When picking the URL, for a very long time tumblr had problems tagging URLs with a hyphen ( - ). I’m not sure if it has been fixed or if there are still some issues, so I recommend only using letters and maybe numbers. Other than that, pick anything that sounds nice to you!
Themes are nice, but not entirely necessary. Not everybody has photoshop skills and all that. Some people do have commissioned themes, but if you want to try your hand at it my first stop is usually @theme-hunter  or @sheathemes . They reblog many themes from many creators, so there are always many options that might suit your needs.  Some creators offer very newcomer-friendly themes that you can configure a lot of things without much hassle but some might require basic HTML knowledge – a few creators have guides on how to properly set up their themes and are willing to and answer questions, so don’t be afraid to contact them! You can also send me an ask, I’m not a specialist but I can certainly help walk you through the basics.
Tip: @glenthemes have very good themes and a basic installation guide here.
When fiddling with the options, try to pick colors that have nice contrast and are easy to read. If you are bad at picking colors or have problems in finding the code for them, I recommend trying this link. There is also this one that auto-generate palettes.
Tip : If you mess with your theme, remember there is the Theme Recovery.
Tip: If you use Chrome or Firefox you can set up different profiles and associate each with a different blog, so you don’t need to log out from any of your accounts.
There are two pages that I recommend having: one is an about your muse. If they are an OC, it is always a good idea to have at least some information out there to make things easier. If they are from a canon source, not everybody is familiar with the material so it might be a good idea to state. For example, if you are going to roleplay as Altria/Arturia, it is a good idea to have a “RP blog for Saber (Altria Pendragon) from FGO/FSN “ somewhere visible. The other page that is a good idea having is a rules/guidelines page. This one can be a little intimidating, but it is usually a way to communicate important things. For example: are you comfortable writing violence? Do you have any personal triggers? There is something you absolutely won’t write? There are things you may figure out along the way and it is absolutely ok to fine-tune this session every now and then. Some people also credit source for their icons and graphics in general in their rule/guideline page.
If you are using the tumblr default themes, when you create a new page you can turn on the option to show a link to the page. If you are using a custom theme, most of the time you will have to link it manually.
Tumblr media
Oh, and if you are planning to do a multimuse, it might be a good idea to list which muses you have. The same goes for a hub blog; list the muses and link to the pages.
Icons aren’t necessary but are considered commonplace. You can find some icons I’ve done here but there are plenty of other sources. If you want to do your own icons, keep in mind to don’t make them too big, as a courtesy to your mutuals.
Tip: Anything larger than 300 pixels will be stretched to fit the post. As of today ( 4/29/2021 ) the posts are currently 540 pixels wide. This can be useful as making banners for your blog.
Tumblr allow users to “pin” posts. This mean that they will always visible if you access your blog, even on dash/mobile. You can use this to set up a post with basic links for mobile users or something else. For example, if you are out on vacations and won’t be able to do replies, you can pin a hiatus notice and then remove the pin once you are back.
Tumblr media
2.       Introducing yourself
Time to officially join the fun! (insert a “Hi, Zuko here” joke) Don’t worry if you don’t have a fancy promo graphic or anything, most people make their initial introduction with a simple post.
Tumblr media
(as you can see, I’m not very good at saying ‘hi’)
Try to introduce yourself in a few lines, but make sure to state which muse you RP as. Some people also like adding their pen name/alias and establishing a brand. Follow as many people as you want that reblogged or liked your post, and tumblr is going to start recommending other blogs that are related to the tags you use normally or have any relation to the people you follow. You can put as many tags as you want, but tumblr will disregard more than 6 tags in their system. Try tags like “<fandom> rp” and “<fandom> roleplay” along with the media, such as “movie” “video game”, “anime” and so on.
It might also be a good idea to follow a few RP memes blogs. They often have options to break the ice, like one-liners that your mutual can send you.
Tip: Don’t forget to turn on the asks and the anon
3.       Practical advice
Alright, now that you have a few mutuals, it is time to get to some general tips:
Tumblr can be a little “iffy”, and a great quality of life extension for RPers and navigation in general is installing the New Xkit extension. They offer a number of options to enhance your tumblr experience, but the ones I consider essential are the “editable reblogs”, “quick tags” and “blacklist”. Get it for Chrome or Firefox.
As a rule of thumb I recommend writing your RPs using Google Docs before posting or replying. By doing this you can do some spell check and if your browser crashes for any reason you can easily recover your work. You can also use Word, Open Office, or any text editor you feel like.
Because I’m a bit of a perfectionist, I also have Grammarly ( Chrome / Firefox ) installed for an extra layer of spell/grammar check. There is a subscription option, but the free one works perfectly fine.
To make things easier to locate, always tag the URL of your RP partner when doing a reply. There are other useful things you can tag, such as open starters, memes, and such.
Risking being obvious here, but when you are not interacting as your character it might be a good idea to tag as “ooc” or “out of character”.
Some people like making google docs with basic info and other useful stuff for easier access on mobile. It is a recent trend, it might be easier to edit as opposed to going through tumblr page editor and dealing with the HTML.  You can find some templates here and here.
Tumblr’s activity can be unreliable, so don’t be afraid of contacting your partner to see if they have gotten your reply after a few weeks. However, some people also enjoy using the RP Thread Tracker in order to be on top of things. It might be a good idea to check it out.
Because of Tumblr shadowbanning and shenanigans, it isn’t unusual for people to have NSFW sideblogs (sometimes referred as ‘sin blogs’). If you want to write smut, it might be a good idea to consider making one.
Some people don’t like replying to asks, as Tumblr won’t let you remove the initial ask. It has become common to see people making new posts to reply to asks.  This is a simple example:
Tumblr media
As you can see, I used the mention to have the RP partner notified then I copied and pasted their question on my post and used the quote to indicate it. You can also have fancy graphics, like a line to separate the contents, just do whatever you feel like with the formatting or keep it simple.
To make sure your partner got the answer, I recommend copying the link to the post and pasting on the ask and then replying it privately.  An example sent to my rp blog:
Tumblr media
4.       Basic Etiquette
Ok, this is a little subjective most of the time but here are a few things that are considered universal courtesy.
Never reblog someone else’s headcanons. If you enjoy it, maybe it should politely contact the author and ask if it is ok to write something based on their original idea but you should never downright copy or lift something from another creator. It is considered rude, or even theft in some cases.
Don’t reblog threads you are not involved with. It is ok to leave a like, but never reblog. This is because Tumblr can mess up the notifications and disrupt the flow of the RP.
Don’t copy other people’s graphics. It is very rude and sometimes they commission (aka: paid) for it.
Trim your posts. What does that mean? Every time you reblog with a reply, the post tends to get longer and longer, and it can cluster your and your mutuals’ dashes. This is why the New X-Kit’s “editable reblogs” is an almost must-have tool. If for some reason you can’t install X-Kit (if you are on mobile for example), then remove the previous post or ask your partner to trim for you.
Never take control of your RP partner’s muse. This is called “godmodding” and it is heavily frowned upon. It is ok to control your muse and the possible NPCs that you inserted, but never seize someone else’s character. Likewise, it can also be very upsetting if you use what people call “meta-gaming”, applying knowledge that your muse shouldn’t know about the other. For example, let’s say your RP partner’s muse is a vampire, but they have never disclosed that information to your muse, who also doesn’t have an excuse to know that (for example, being a vampire hunter) so it can be quite jarring sometimes. When in doubt, contact your partner.
This should go without saying, but RPing sexual themes with users under the age of 18 are illegal. It doesn’t matter if the age of consent in your location is lower, once you join Tumblr you are abiding by their user guidelines and the law of the state they are located in. If you are an adult, don’t engage minors with these topics, maybe a fade to black would be a better option. If you are a minor, don’t insist or you might cause a lot of legal problems for others.
Try to tag anything triggering. Violence, gore, NSFW. Both Tumblr and the New Xkit have options to block keywords.
When picking PSDs or graphics for your blog, you should avoid templates that change the color of the skin of POCs muses and try to pick the right race/ethnicity of the muse you are going to RP as. I won’t go through a lot of details, as it is a rather lengthy subject in an already lengthy conversation but keep this in the back of your mind.
Some RPers don’t like when you reblog memes from them without sending anything. Try to always reblog from a source or to interact with the person you are reblogging from, it can be rather disheartening to be seen as a meme source rather than a RP blog. This isn’t a rule and some people don’t mind, but it is always a good idea to try to do this.
This might be more of a pet peeve of mine than proper etiquette, but it is ok to use small font. What is not ok is use small font + underscript. Some people have disabilities that might make it harder for them to read it, so it might be a good idea to refrain from using it. Maybe if you feel like doing something fancier every now and then, but I wouldn’t recommend making this a habit.
Mun and Muse are different entities. Remember that it isn’t because a muse does something (especially a villain one) that the mun condones something. Never assume anything about the mun, when in doubt talk to them.
Be mindful of your partners and treat them the way you would like to be treated.
As a rule of thumb, always talk to your RP partner. It is only fun as long both of you are enjoying it.
5.       Closing Words
This got longer than I expected.
Despite all of that, don’t be too worried about not being very good at first. I assure you that you will get better with time, so don’t be afraid of experimenting as long you feel comfortable. And don’t be afraid of saying “no” if something bothers you.
My inbox is always open to questions and ideas, so feel free to contact me anytime!
I would also ask my followers: there is advice I missed/overlooked? Anything you would like someone have told you when you first started? Add your thoughts so I can update this.
Happy RPing!

I think you’re shadowbanned to iOS users because of your url because I keep getting notifs for you but like maybe 1 out of every 10 posts you make/reblog actually get on my dash no matter how many times I refresh and I don’t have best stuff first on :(
BY TALOS THIS CANT BE HAPPENING

A FAIR EXCHANGE: LEAVE A COMMENT & GET NEW CONTENT
IF YOU’RE A FOLLOWER OF MINE WHO FREQUENTLY READS MY CONTENT, OR IF YOU’RE NEW AND PLANNING TO SEND IN A REQUEST, PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ THIS ALL THE WAY TO THE END IF YOU WANT TO HELP KEEP THIS BLOG GOING AND IF YOU WANT YOUR REQUEST TO BE WRITTEN. THANK YOU!
(Wordcount: 1417)
From now on things are gonna be a bit different around here; I won’t be writing nor posting any more requests if I don’t get comments on the one-shots I post.
I realize that it might be a bit obsessive and that I must seem desperate for attention but honestly, in my eyes leaving comments on things you read and like should be as obvious as it is to pay someone who, for example, paints you a portrait that you’ve ordered. Especially so if you’re the one who request the fic. 
I’m doing this for free, I’m taking a lot of time out of my life and I’m taking your requests and I’m writing thousand word long one-shots just for you, to make you happy. 
Although I am doing it for myself for the most part as I love to write, it’s incredibly discouraging to barely get any positive feedback; more often than not, not even from the person who requested it, which is probably one of the most disrespectful and ungrateful things there is. 
If you send in a request anonymously, you’ll still remain anonymous if you leave a comment. No one will know that you’re the one who sent the request, so please leave a comment. Some of you may already do this and in that case, I’m extremely grateful, but I know lots of you don’t because some of my requested fics don’t get any comments at all. Absolutely zero. Zilch. Nada. 
That being said, if you want your own request being written from now on, or simply if you want to see new content, do your part and leave a comment on my previous fic belonging to the fandom you want a new fic for. 
You don’t have to pay any more attention than you already have to the fics I’ve already posted up until today, October 5th, but from the moment I post my next fic for a certain fandom, I won’t be posting any more for said fandom until that piece has gotten some interaction. 
To make it a bit clearer, the next request I post for Criminal Minds, will have to get some gratitude and validation in the comment section before I post another request for that fandom. 
The next request I post for Peaky Blinders, will have to get some gratitude and validation in the comment section before I post another request for tha fandom. 
And the same goes for every other fandom I write for, starting with the next fic I post for each of them. Makes sense? If not, then all you need to understand is that I, from now on, won’t write any requests if I don’t get any interaction, and I’ll be putting that little disclaimer at the start of every fic from now on so that it’s clear. 
I know that my blog is to some extent shadowbanned; my fics turn up in the most recent posts in the tags, but they don’t show up in my followers’ news feeds or on their home pages, so I know that this plays a big part in why my blog has become so incredibly dead lately, in comparison to how lively it was at the beginning of this year and also before that. 
But my blog has a total of 4864 followers in this moment, I’ve gained 301 of said followers just this past month, and the gaps between the likes and the comments/reblogs are huge on every single one of my fics, so I know that there are a lot of people who read my content who could take a minute to leave a comment if only they cared enough to do so.
I’m not gonna ask you to reblog, even though it would be greatly appreciated as it would help my content get out there on a larger scale, because I get that some of you want to post other stuff on your blogs that aren’t fanfiction. But please, if you like a fic of mine, leave a comment. It takes no more than a few seconds and a little can go such a long way. 
I feel really dumb and extreme for being this dependent on the validation and I kinda understand if you’re a one-time reader who only likes one of my fics in passing and therefore don’t leave a comment, but I have a LOT of “regulars” who read and like most of the content I put out, including the people on my tag lists, among others. 
So please, if you’re a frequent reader of my fics, if you’re on the tag lists and especially if you’re the one reqeusting it, anon or not, leave a comment the next time I post something you like because I sadly won’t want to keep writing requests if they keep getting this little interaction.  
The comments are, in a way, the payment for me - compensation for my time and hard work, like “regular” workers get paid in money. 
They pay me back the motivation, energy and inspiration that it took from me to write the fic, and it’s just not fun nor worth it for me if I don’t get shown any gratitude for the fics I write, which is why I haven’t posted in a while again. 
An artist can’t keep painting, no matter how much they love it, if they don’t get paid for the work they do for others. Because with what money are they going to purchase new material and resources, if they don’t get any?
Just like that, I can’t keep writing requests, no matter how much I love writing, if I don’t get validated and hyped up. Because what is the point of creating stuff for other people if they don’t even show that they appreciate or like it? 
Hopefully you get my point, and if you follow me for other reasons than for reading my one-shots, or if you only followed me for a fandom that I no longer write for, don’t mind this post. This is meant for the people who still frequently read and like my content, who are on my tag lists, and who send in requests of their own. 
To those of you who make it a habit to reblog and/or comment without having to be asked to do so: there aren’t enough words in the world to describe how much I love and appreciate you, a single comment saying “I really liked this” can make my entire day and give me the biggest rush of motivation and inspiration to write more. 
I know a lot of writers here on Tumblr feel like I do, so please, as a reader, make it a habit to leave comments because even if a writing account is quiet about it, not getting any interaction is discouraging and it kills the spark. 
So to wrap it all up, to me, this seems like a more than fair exchange: 
Comments on my fics - I’ll be motivated, inspired and hyped up, the spark will remain and I will keep writing and posting requests and ENJOY doing so, and you will keep getting fresh content and getting your personal requests written. A win-win situation for all of us. 
No comments on my fics - My motivation and inspiration will be pretty much non-existent, this blog will die out, you won’t get any more fics, and as I have decided with a 110% certainty not to post if I don’t get interaction on my fics, I won’t have to keep forcing myself to write when it becomes more of a burden than a fun thing to do anymore.
Hopefully you will help me keep this blog alive, as it is one of the things I hold dearest in life and one of my biggest accomplishments. I love to write and there’s nothing I’d rather spend my days doing, but not getting any comments and/or reblogs leaves me running on an empty tank and it takes a lot out of me to force myself to write when that happens, which I hope you will understand and help me avoid. 
Thank you for reading all the way down, and thank you even further if you’re going to start leaving comments. Hopefully, we can all build this blog back up together because if it comes to life again, I’m planning to re-open requests for a lot of abandoned and closed, and also entirely new, fandoms and characters, so from a former reader’s perspective, you can really only win on this situation.
