Improvisation is a big thing in drama, and it takes very long to get used to. So to make us feel more comfortable, our drama teacher told us this: the secret to improv is to keep the conversation going, and don't put the other person in a position where the cannot come up with a reply.

I think the same concept could be applied to roleplay threads. If someone posts a starter saying "I like your shoes, they look nice", don't simply reply with "Thanks" as that puts the roleplayer in an awkward position: what are they supposed to say?????

Instead, make the reply interesting, and provide an easy way for the person to answer. For example, you could reply with the starter about shoes by saying, "Thank you! To be honest, It's a hand me down. My brother gets all the good stuff." This provides more of a leeway into a conversation than a simple thanks, and your characters might end up finding more about each other.

And that, my friends is how to turn a boring, simple starter into a long lasting, interesting conversation

None of the gifs included in this pack were created by me, and therefore all rightful credit for them should go to their original creators. However, I did edit and resize well over 400 of them to insure that each and every gif was roleplayable (read: under 1.05 mb) and tested them out just to make sure!

All of the icons included in this pack were made by me. Credit is not necessary, but please do like/reblog if you see fit!

ENJOY!  And feel free to contact me if you have any questions or problems with the pack.
