Dust on the Ground || Kate & Laura

^{By this time, Kate’s mind was clear. It was later in the evening, close to sunset. Her conversation with Laura had ended a few hours ago. It lingered in her mind for a while, everything bouncing around in her nearly empty mind. It sucked when the only memories you had were bad ones. The regret of all of them pretty much left a constant sick feeling in the pit of her stomach, although most of her emotions she was great at keeping buried and she put up really thick walls to keep herself from feeling even shittier.}

^{To keep her mind off of things she had gone out in the woods, deciding to have some target practice at a random tree. She had been out of the game for a while, she had to make sure that she kept on top of her skill so it didn’t diminish. Everything was silent around her, and she had taken aim at the target she had pinned to the tree, but she heard the rustling of leaves not too far from her and she paused. When it stilled she took her shot before turning around, smirking at the figure that her eyes landed on. “Well if it isn’t my favorite Hale girl, did you finally decide to come out and play?” she questioned with her signature smirk, her weight shifted to a hip.}

first and foremost, this blog is highly selective. that being said, i will only write with mutuals. anyone may send asks, however. i'm not a total asshole.

no godmodding. this is like the golden rule of roleplay, it shouldn’t even have to be stated. just don’t.

no drama. like really, i’m here to enjoy myself and write with you, not act like a bunch of high school drama queens. if you have a problem with me, come to me in private so we can talk it out and get over it.

if you honestly expect me to let you and/or your muse rule my life, don't bother. i'm a busy person, and have other interests outside of tumblr. shocking right? i also have friends, and i'm all about making more. i'm not gonna push people to the side or ignore their existence just because you get jealous, that's unfair to them and me. i rule my life, not you. the amount of people i have in my life doesn't make you any less important. keep that in mind and it's smooth sailing.

don’t hound me for replies. i put a lot of time and care into everything I write, because I’m a perfectionist and take my threads very seriously. that being said, replies aren’t going to be out extremely fast. others may get replies slightly more often than you do, i’m human. sometimes certain threads take more thought in what move I want to make next, and sometimes there’s something going on in another thread that’s captured most of my interest. i haven’t forgotten you. if you want a nice reply like everyone else, be patient. trust me, it’s worth the wait.

don’t try and smut with me if you aren’t 18 or dangerously close to it. that being said, I’m not going to demand everyone’s age from them. i trust that you’ll be honest with me if things get to that point and you’re not of age. if that happens, we can drop the final curtain and pick up with the next morning or whatever for all I care.

you don’t have to match my length. i tend to get really into what I’m writing and throw novella sized things at people without meaning to, i don’t expect that to be returned every reply. but please, at least put effort into it and give me something to work with. if i write you a book and you give me less than a paragraph, it’s likely that i won’t continue the thread.

i won’t write through reblogged asks. i just can’t stand the way it looks, and i don’t want it on my blog. if you wish to reply to an ask of mine go right ahead, just know that my reply will be a new text post with your reply pasted above it to make it a thread.

don’t antagonize if you don’t want your character to be injured or killed. kate is a skilled werewolf hunter, now equipped with a set of claws and fangs. she also hasn’t learned full control over her newfound abilities, so the smallest thing could light her fuse and set her off like a firecracker and she wouldn’t even necessarily mean to. not to mention she loves violence anyway, it’s like she gets off on it. you’ve been warned, so please don’t come whining to me if something happens to your character because they were being a dick.

if you see me writing with a duplicate of your character, don’t assume that kate will have the same relationship with your muse as well. portrayals vary, and every relationship develops differently.

plots. i love love love plotted threads and AUs. i don’t make greeting starters, but if i follow you i have interest in writing with you. if there’s something you would like to do, tell me. if i think of something for our characters i’ll definitely be popping up in your ask or on skype if we’ve shared. i also tend to make threads out of certain memes, so if there’s one i’ve reblogged that captures your interest that you think would make a good thread, send me the thing.

grammar. please use it properly. there are some things I can overlook, especially if english is not your first language. but i was given the nickname grammar nazi in high school for a reason. this only applies to threads of course, because i myself write like an idiot out of character.

i’m not a fan of OCs that happen to be children of my character. if we’ve plotted prior it’s a different story, but don’t just randomly write me a starter with some random person calling kate mom.

[ this list is likely to be altered and added to as i think of new things, just fyi ]
