what’s up youtube it’s ya boi
[been a long-ass time since i was here so i should probably mention that i’m retiring from pokerp. i’m chilling out in a new fandom and the muse here’s kinda petered out save for a few private rp sessions/lingering connections with friends, so!! yeah
idk if anyone wants it, but i do have a personal account/twitter/etc (backgroundcheese/musasuchus are my main handles most places) if anyone who hasn’t gotten in contact with me before still wants to chat or hang out
see y’all on the flip side, thanks for the good times!!]
...Welp, I’ve been thinking about it for a bit. Given that I’m kind of involved in all this hooha everyone may or may not have seen floating around, I should probably make a personal statement for the record:
[so apparently it was @claireinette birthday last monday and i wasn’t aware of it?? here’s a lil makeup gift of their oc, claire, with her altaria!]
[re: the other night
some folks messaged me so i wanted to say to anyone who may be concerned that i’m alright!! you don’t gotta worry about me, i’m in high spirits and feeling just fine. and thank you to anyone who talked to me, it was real sweet of you!!]
[well idk who’s going around impersonating me on anon, but if anyone out there gets an anon containing mean messages signed with my url, i can tell you right now that it’s not me sending them. if it happens, please just block the anon and delete the message]
“…” Stares.
Stares for a long, long time.
And then, finally, some kind of response.
“…You uh, got a present for me then?”
“Oh yeah, got somethin’ real good.”
He strikes a ridiculous pose, one hand in the air and the other on his chest.
“I’m the fuckin’ present.”
“…Wh… Who…?”
All around me are familiar faces, worn out places, worn out faces--
“It’s me, Santa.”
agentcatman replied to your post: [someone: there’s a new guzma around me:

[someone: there’s a new guzma around
me:
[whoops i died
i should pppppprobably mention to y’all: i’m gonna be a lot less active here for a lil while!
i’ll still pop in from time to time for replies and to do the occasional thing, and anyone who needs guzma for something is welcome to message me here or on discord (i still rp pretty actively in discord chats), but my writing muse/general interest is elsewhere for the time being ahahaha.......]
Xurkitree, wearing Hala's robe, rolls up to Guzma's front door, and leans against it. Of course, he has to squat down when it opens, and shoves a box of Hala's belongings into the man's arms. "Heya, babe! Got this from the old man--I'm Melemele's Kahuna now--don't tell anyone. If Koko finds out, I'm dead. Like Hala is. I killed Hala. Gotta run, babe, Gelato needs ice cream PRONTO, later!"
As Xurk skips off into the distance in his usual xurkish way, Guzma’s left standing there with the box of...is this Hala’s shit? And Xurk was wearing Hala’s shirt, too?
What the fresh hell?
“...Whoa whoa, hollup--Ya did what--”
“do not eat potat!!!!!!!”
potat seems angry. he even drew angry eyebrows on himself.
liek for potat
“potato.”
[I’ve noticed a trend that’s bit worrying lately and I feel like this needs to be said: being respectful of your roleplay partner as another living human being with emotional boundaries is important.
Yes, roleplay is about having fun, but nobody should lose sight of the fact that behind each character is a real person who is fundamentally different than you are. Having fun should not be more important than treating others how we ourselves expect to be treated.
Sometimes some very heated topics and real world events get intermingled with fictional scenarios. These things are inherently fine when dealt with in a polite, serious manner, and there are people who even roleplay as a coping mechanism or a means of working through their own emotions. But I can’t stress enough that what you may find acceptable to bring into a roleplay setting may not be fine with your partner.
Not everyone has had the same experience as you, and may find said content uncomfortable or even triggering. You cannot say for sure whether or not your partner will be okay with it unless you ask, and it should be your responsibility as a good roleplay partner to step back when another person asserts their boundaries. If someone says no, respect that.
We are all in control of ourselves and our characters. Even if we joke that we’re not, we are. This is fiction. It would do everyone good to remember that we do, in fact, have an obligation to be mindful of the community around us.]
“Go stack rocks.”
“Great idea!”
He lifts up a large, heavy rock.
“Now I just need a good anchor point...” He pretends to look around, covering his eyes with his hand to get a better view. Eventually, his gaze falls back on Hala. “Perfect!”
He hauls the rock over his head and starts toward Hala--
