DAMMIT JIM
1.) Where and when did you start RPing?
About ten (ohgod) years ago there were incredibly popular messageboards by a site called intheweb.com (I think). I ended up rping a lot there for (double ohgod) the Redwall fandom.
2.) Do you RP anywhere other than LJ?
Yes. IM, dabbled in Greatestjournal (when it was in operation) and Insanejournal, a few forums.
3.) Do you play in any public games?
Yes. Wait. What's the definition of a public game? Stuff where everything can be viewed by the public, or a game where ANYONE can join? Over ten years of this, you'd think I'd know the goddamn lingo by now
4.) Do you prefer first-person comment spam or prose logging?
Prose logging, though comments have their charm.
5.) What was the first character you ever played?
Good lord. A horribly cliche, ridiculous Redwall OC. I don't even want to go into it because one of you bitches might google it.
6.) Who's your favorite character to play now and why?
It's a tie between Balthazar and Adrian Veidt. Adrian is so wonderful and sweet and badass but he has about 10,000,000 things going on his head at any given time and it's rather tiring. Balthazar, on the other hand, seems to have a one track mind except he likes doing gross things, like pulling people apart or shredding them from the inside. Tricky.
7.) What's the longest you've ever consistently played one character?
I want to say Balthazar but that's probably a lie. In all likelihood it's an OC of mine, Alan, or Severus Goddamn Snape. Since my memory is bad for exact dates, the only real differences are that I wrote Alan amazingly and Snape shittily. Heheh.
8.) What's your biggest RP pet peeve?
When people think I am my character. Or worse, when people let their views of a mun or a mun's character reflect in how they have their own characters act. Bitch you don't know Adrian's life
9.) Do you read RP secrets and the RP anon meme?
Nope.
10.) If you've played in public before, do you prefer community based or journal based games?
I honestly do not care. (As a note, 'played in public' sounds so dirty.)
11. Would you rather play with someone who's very very IC but a mediocre writer or someone who isn't always IC (but not terrible) and a great writer?
IC and mediocre is fine. Especially since 'great writing' and crappy characterization tends to translate to thesaurus raping and purple prose. I'm actually not that much of an elitist bitch, and everyone starts somewhere - I do, however, expect effort on someone else's part if I am putting in some effort of my own.
12.) Do you have a "RP partner"?
VTKT owns my soul. The fact we don't have a true pairing in Glaxcin is a crime.
13.) Do you ever stalk any casts, games, or players? Who?
No. Well. I guess I stalk VTKT, technically, since I send her gifts and call her all the time to bitch about inconsequential things or tell her how I saw Trent Reznor painted on the side of a car. And I go to her house and stay over but she kicks me in the head while we're sleeping. But anyway.
14.) In your opinion, which part of an app is the most difficult/annoying?
The first person sample. Good God.
15.) Are you one of those people who has to customize their character's journal layout and userinfo?
Yes, to an extent. I'm pretty crappy at it though.
16.) What was your first game?
Who the fuck wrote this thing? I suppose this question isn't exactly the same as the first question since technically I didn't get my start in a proper game, though, it was free-for-all rp. My first game was a Harry Potter slash rp.
17.) Are there any canons you avoid tagging characters from?
No. Well, wait. I would probably avoid High School Musical if it ever showed up. And Twilight. And like, 'real people' characters, that's just creepy.
18.) Most memorable scene in any thread?
Adrian Veidt fucking Tank Girl Balthazar and Ellie making snowmen before having bloodsex Bubastis playing with Castiel's wings That time Jonathan Crane punched Optimus Prime in the face Nothing springs to mind.
19.) Do you RP sex?
Yes.
20.) Do you play more males or females?
I like the boys, though I wish I played more girls.
21.) What *won't* you RP?
Uh.
22.) Dressing rooms: yes or no?
What is that.
23.) Ever RPed a pairing?
Oh yes. I kind of need a pairing in order to rp sex (I know, I'm traditional that way)
24.) Favorite place to play: musebox, open posts, public games, private games?
Formal games, or randomly on im. Wtf is a musebox.
25.) Talking RP with someone else who plays your character: fun or awkward?
Fun. Knowing and being confident in your character is like being confident in your sexuality; if you can't talk about another person's preferences or viewpoints, you have got some issues, dude.
OH AND HERE'S A FANVID I MADE. THIS IS WHAT PASSES FOR PRODUCTIVITY WHEN I REFUSE TO DO MY FINANCE HOMEWORK. (you can blame only_veetee for its existence, she requested the song and everything.)
