hiiii, i'm gladiolus. i'm 27 and live in the est. i'm an english and literary studies major who cries a lot. i love talking to people, so feel free to ask for my discord if we're mutuals!
this blog is SELECTIVE and PRIVATE. i will only interact with mutuals, and i may not follow everyone back. i'm not necessarily selective with what muses i interact with, but rather with who. i will not follow if:
you smell like a bigot
you do not have a rules page
your blog is HEAVILY nsfw (ie the point of it is smut)
you're a multi with like a FUCKTON of muses
your blog has no semblance of actually being an rp blog
i am just completely unsure on how to interact with you
personal blogs may follow, but please DO NOT reblog anything from me.
i'm very open to other ocs and fandoms. i'll literally read wikis and make verses on the fly so we can write together. however, i refuse to write with or even acknowledge the following fandoms:
harry potter
attack on titan
hetalia
south park
five nights at freddy's
multis are on thin ice, but be aware i'll still be largely less inclined to follow.
since they're becoming a popular thing again, let it be known that i will not like permanent interaction calls. i've tried them in the past, and nothing ever really changed interaction-wise or with the relationship between the muns and myself, and i utilize my likes to keep track of replies. still feel free to hmu whenever! just don't take it personally or as a sign that i'm uninterested when i don't like them!
also that said, please only follow if you have intentions of interacting with me. i prefer keeping maybe a smaller amount of followers than most, and if i feel all my attempts to interact have gone ignored, i will eventually give up and softblock. and honestly, all it takes is like one ask or talking to me ooc to let me know you're interested.
i'm not a fan of heavily formatted posts. i'm dyslexic and they tend to be very difficult for me to read. be aware that i'm less inclined to follow those who do heavily format their posts, but if we are mutuals i ask that you please tone it down in our threads. specifically what gives me problems are frequent, random capitalization / bolding, and multiple spaces between words.
i tag textual descriptions of sensitive topics as "(subject) cw" and images as "(subject) tw". i do tend to tag common squicks and triggers, but feel free to let me know when you need something tagged!
all muses here are MULTISHIP, however things like ooc communication and chemistry can impact my comfort with shipping. that said, i am pretty open to ships. if you think a ship between our muses might work well, we can talk it out and see how we feel! while xerxes and elis are romantically inclined, all ships with them will exist separate from their canon relationship, or we can even go a polyam route. just don't request like pedophilia and respect my muses' sexualities.
i am OVER 18 and will not rp or discuss anything of mature nature with anyone underage. nsfw threads, discussion, jokes, and hcs may pop up now and then. however everything will be appropriately tagged and under a readmore
i think callouts for interpersonal drama are dumb shit. but, i do believe people have the right to call out abuse / racism / homophobia / transphobia / other behavior that harms them, so i would consider myself pro-callout to a small extent. however, i do like to stay out of drama, so i don't tend to reblog callouts that don't involve myself or my friends, unless i believe they are a danger to the rpc.
i also do not tolerate the silencing of or insensitivity towards real life events and issues. i get not wanting to see general discourse and unpleasantness, however dismissing overt bigotry or discussion of actual, horrific events as "drama" is not okay imo. especially if you are not part of the marginalized group it targets.
this blog isn't my only one, so i'm not always here. expect periods of total inactivity because my ability to juggle more than one blog at once is abysmal. in general, rping is meant to be a hobby, aka something i do when i feel like it. please do not rush me for replies, but feel free to hmu if you're wondering what's up.
also i got, like, a full-time 40 hrs a week job and shit. i tend to be on mobile and ooc post a lot sometimes. if you don't like ooc posts, you're probably going to find me very annoying.
