1. what’s the hardest character to write? easiest?

hardest: villains - true villains, the kind that don’t care who they might hurt

easiest: friendly and kind characters with a good sense of humor

2. do you listen to music when writing? if so, what kind of music & playlist? if not, do you have playlists for your ocs/wips?

yep! I have a playlist for each of my wips! I don’t really have one specific kind of music I listen to, but I do tend more towards songs from musicals cause they’re less likely to give me headaches during low-energy days

3. do you work on multiple wips at once? why or why not?

yes, because I’m very adhd and just can’t keep myself to just one so it’s just what I need to do to stay productive

4. is there a scene that’s difficult to work with?

transitions and heavy stuff, I really don’t like writing arguments

beginnings can be difficult too

5. is there a character that is making a scene difficult?

not really? I don’t really view my characters like that; if there’s a problem with a scene, I’m the one who is doing something wrong and needs to fix it, not my characters

6. what are your characters’ flaws? are they aware of them?

I’ll answer this with the main four from TCUA cause people seem to really like it

Zack’s flaws: he’s a little too eager-to-please; tries to make everyone else happy even if it means he’s not, if someone insults him he’s just gonna sit there and take it instead of standing up for himself and risking them leaving

is he aware: not really, he doesn’t see it as a problem... yet

Mia’s flaws: she doesn’t fully understand that real life doesn’t work like a book, she wants adventure and she’s gonna hop on any chance she gets no matter how inconvenient for those around her

is she aware: she’s starting to be, but doesn’t really understand why it’s a problem

Vivian’s flaws: she hasn’t quite grasped that there are different ways to be smart, and she tends to hold too high of expectations for everyone around her while also expecting everyone to let her down

is she aware: yes and no; she knows her expectations are inconvenient for others and just lead her to being disappointed, but she refuses to actually see them as a problem - and she’s not aware of the other issue at all

Andres’ flaws: he doesn’t understand that people outside of his family care about him and might even view him as a friend; even if they flat out say they do, his brain rejects it

is he aware: maybe subconsciously? the one roadblock to him being aware is his treatment of anything that challenges this belief as something that cannot be trusted on the subject, even his own subconscious

7. do you have any snacks for when your writing?

I take snack breaks sometimes, when I just cannot sit and write any longer, but I don’t generally snack while writing - I need two hands to write and can’t snack without at least one

8. what is your character’s kryptonite?

again, I’m gonna focus on TCUA for this

Zack: his sister, and his need to be liked

Mia: adventure

Vivian: herself mostly; her impossible standards, her temper, her tendency to be blunt with harsh truths(or at least, what she perceives to be truth)

Andres: Zack

9. do you have other hobbies?

art! I sketch and do digital art (mostly of my ocs)

10. favorite pretty word you learned this year?

ummm... no idea, sorry

11. will you be doing NaNo this year? if so, any wip for it? if not (and if yes), is there any other monthly event you planned to be involved in?

Nope, don’t think I ever will tbh; and no, I just don’t really do monthly events

tagging: @tawnyisanerd, @halrose, @writablefish, @eyajiiwrites, @tamorapierce, @niitheknight, @caffeinewitchcraft, @hermiones-writeblrr, @neil-gaiman, @lottieiswriting, @all-my-novels

and questions for y’all to answer:

(I really like the flaws question so I’m totally gonna steal that)

1. what are your characters’ flaws? are they aware of them?

2. what’s your favorite genre to write?

3. what detail of setting are you best at/is easiest for you? are those the same?

4. do you prefer to write on paper or word document?

5. what tropes do you have the most fun writing? do you prefer to play them straight or give them a twist?

6. what time of day do you write best at?

7. do you need total silence when you write or does that throw you off? or does it vary depending on other factors?

8. do you take breaks while writing? if yes, what do you like to do during them?

9. which of your characters is your favorite and why?

10. do you have a designated writing space/setup that you need to write in or can you write anywhere?

11. do you like to have a drink(hot cocoa, coffee, water, tea, etc) while writing? if so, what drink do you prefer?

RP PLOTTING CHEAT SHEET.

Want new-and-exciting plots for your character? Long to reach out to more of your followers, but don’t know where to start? Fear not! Fill out this form and give your RP partners both present and future all the of juicy jumping off points they need to help you get your characters acquainted. Be sure to tag the players whose characters YOU want more cues to interact with, and repost, don’t reblog! Feel free to add or remove sections as you see fit. Templatehere.

mun name . Ches ooc contact . IM or Inbox preferably.

who the heck is my muse anyway . Death itself, the very essence and meaning. Not an angel of Death, or a God, or whatever. Literal Death. The Pale Rider, The Grim Reaper, you all know him and he knows all of you. Of course, this is my little spin on the character and his world, to the point my boy here is basically an OC of mine.

points of interest . The ol’ bone daddy here has an ever present cold aura about him, he’s slender and tall, pale white skin and hair. Appears almost exclusively in a tired form, very adept at pushing buttons and pulling strings to manipulate others to follow a certain path. Orchestrating fates and demises using this..talent.

what they’ve been up to recently . Honestly? Not much. There hasn’t been any SUPER HARDCORE plot things with the ol’ Reaper here in a while. He’s often more of a side character assisting others in their situations, which, is fine with me. Though..would definitely like some sweet sweet plottage here and there.

where to find them . Nowhere! :D You’ll never be able to find Death itself unless he has previously allowed himself to appear to you, though if the muse has actively become an acquaintance with the old shepherd he’s often found in his palace within the Land of the Dead..being tired and busy as usual.

current plans . Not much here, either. Death and I are pretty...scattered as of late, so it’s been a more ‘visit to visit’ kind of setup for his threads and interactions. However, I do have a few ideas I plan to poke into and test out once I find a bit more time and energy to do so!~

desired interactions . Battles, something on an epic scale. Be it something akin to an end boss fight kind of setup, some great betrayal by Death or something of the sort. Even possibly a ‘gang up on this force of nature’ kind of battle because who doesn’t want to overthrow Death itself for all he’s done? That, or a well planned out manipulation thread, Mortem is a master of words and twisting other’s wills and actions, but I’ve rarely had an option to actually...make something of it? Something meaningful at least, beyond the occasional argument gone his way.

offered interactions . Most if not all people here are welcome at any time to hop into my inbox and slam down some sick plot ideas tbh

current open post/s . Everything, as long as it’s not actively tagged for another blog. There are so many ‘;random’ tagged posts that would work, even the ‘;musica mortis’ posts are available as interaction starters as the muses often “sing” the lyrics.

anything else . Death’s death, killing is his literal reason for existing and he’s the reason you can kill and die. That being said, he’s not a bully or the usual mindless monster murderer trope he usually gets in media and even other rp blogs that I’ve seen. I’m not gonna get him to kill a muse unless one of two things happen. Either it’s spoken about and a plot step, or the muse pokes and prods and asks for it..because i wont hold back my muse for that kind of stuff.
