Maybe one of us should make a starter?:
So accurate it hurts
HE’S GOT SUGAR IN HIS veins/ but that taste on his lips ( on his tongue! ); NO don’t trust it--IT’S POISON. but even THEN: do not fear for yourself, CRY for him--the one it kills with every TASTE! it’s a DANGEROUS LIFE he’s LIVING ( it can end at any moment--aren’t you afraid? ), but who will see his demise--REST BY HIS BEDSIDE FOR HIS FINAL BREATH? WOULD IT DARE BE ALL THOSE HE’S SAVED-- no. they’re nowhere to be found--but that’s the FUTURE && this is now ( IN THAT MOMENT WITH THAT RADIANT BOY ); are you PECKISH? --or will you CHANCE A BITE at that savory taste of a personal hell?

hung over the edge of his bed and ‘staring’ at the ceiling, photios had a great. idea. “i should get a dating profile. what d’you think? ‘enjoys sightseeing, watching sunsets, and reading to partner’?”
rovgefonce;; he who made photios mad, a single line story which ends in obliteration
“Is that so?” Lewis responded, taking the other man’s attitude in stride. It was not easy to deter him; he could get slapped and keep smiling. ( It had happened before. ) He even chuckled.
“Fair enough. Be careful with fairies, though,” he advised, “they can be tricky, according to stories.” Fairy jokes aside, he was here for more intimate purposes. “So what brings you out here alone? I guess I can rule out sightseeing.”
“AU CONTRAIRE,” a pause, “friend.” and somehow, in a way which only a very cranky photios could manage, the word came out more bitter than the taste of ROSE PETALS.
“i’ve have you know, i’m extremely fond of sightseeing.” alright, someone must have really pissed in his cereal this morning. he sighed ( but was there a...smile? in that sigh? ). “okay, shithead, listen here.” (profanity. how frightening.) “your voice sounds slight LESS attractive than the noise that comes from a PIG giving BIRTH. so if you could please, just shut up for a second.”
“can’t you tell i’m fucking busy sightseeing.” (that was definitely a smile.)
so there’s been a worrisome trend reappearing on my dash lately and i’m not sure if it’s just because of poor judgement or if people just aren’t aware– but i’m going to address it as simply as possible. no worries. mama teru is here to make it all clear. here’s the informal kinda salty guide to…
mental illnesses effect a lot of people, me included. i happen to also have a mental illness that is very misunderstood within the media and roleplaying community– DID. it’s really heartbreaking to see people portray nearly every character with my mental illness in a very, very negative light– and i’m sure it’s hard for others to see, too. SO, I MADE A CHECKLIST. do you think you’re well enough informed to write a character with a mental illness? let’s find out.
☐ i have the mental illness i gave my character.
there’s the big one. you pass this– you’re fine. pass go. collect $200. roleplay away to your gay little heart’s content. for those of you who DON’T have the illness that you give your character, you’ve got some work to do. ANOTHER CHECKLIST.
☐ i have researched the mental illness thoroughly and carefully. ☐ my research did not consist of reading a YA novel that sorta talked about it. ☐ i REALLY REALLY REALLY researched it. researched it hard af. ☐ i realize that this is a real mental illness that effects REAL people. ☐ people with mental illness probably follow me, so i’m going to be respectful. ☐ i won’t give this to my muse to make them seem ‘more edgy.’
if you missed a check on that list, DON’T GIVE YOUR CHARACTER THE MENTAL ILLNESS. if it is integral to your character– work on it. understand how it effects the people who have it in a REAL way - don’t go to the media ( which UNCEASINGLY misrepresents mental illness, ) and remember that people with the mental illness you want to give your muse ACTUALLY EXIST, they are not quirks or little add-ons to make us more interesting. they are draining and hard to cope with, and misrepresentation is rampant.
that’s it. now go, run with your little respectful writing and well-rounded muses, and be secure in the fact that you’re probably not going to step on anybody’s toes unless you stop being understanding and respectful of the fact that these are REAL THINGS that effect MANY REAL PEOPLE, so you should portray them in a REAL WAY. thanks.
$ 🔫💄$ – They weren’t very much responsive to pick-up lines or anyone distracting them from their shopping sprees, but his effort on “hitting them up” was noted. The white cane was noticeable, but Yong was skeptical nonetheless.
❝That’s… sweet,❞ they paused, ❝I think. You could stop tryin’ now.❞
Yong was surprised at how pushy he was and became stuck with the options of turning him down, or being as pitiful as he suggested. After all, they were weak for anyone that nice, despite whoever they were. How bad could it be?
❝It won’t be a pity date if I’m this interested in you,❞ they smiled, ❝unless you’re not real with me.❞
at the notice that he ‘could’ stop trying, he near made a comment before picking up on the stranger’s next statement. an odd upturn of his cheeks brought up a corner of his mouth--a smile? it was a smile from someone who had never seen another’s (who would not be able to copy someone else’s).
he opened his eyes briefly, a sort of instinct from shock. he hadn’t actually been expected to be taken seriously (because half of the time people he hit so obviously on just laughed him off--half), but was glad they did. (and had to stifle a happy...giggle?) he hid his excitement well though (or so he hoped).
“oh? so i have a new admirer, i see? good then, we can look attractive together.”
perhaps in the moment it was his way of saying, ‘you’re interested? i’m so happy to hear that. and of course i’m being real with you, such a pleasant person should be treated like crystal.’ not that--if it indeed was--he would ever admit it.
“so, want to have dinner? or should i send a guide dog with a letter in a bottle tomorrow for lunch?”
@neutrallisms liked for a starter! // [ x ] // open!
“i’m fashionable. you’re fashionable. we should date.” the 25 cent pickup lines must’ve been sold out with him on a 5 cent budget for him to be using that line. “alright. hold on i got something better...
“even through my blindness, i could sense your attractiveness.” wait, no... “no?
“alright. what if i play the blind card:
“i’m blind so you should definitely give me one pity date.”
coming on too strong? i think it’s funny. good humour should make up for at least 3 cents.

“you do realize i can’t see shit, right? which means you don’t have to get all weird.” geez, man, i don’t need to see to notice that. “it’s a vibe, dude. you’ve got weird-vibe all over you. bad vibrations, dude.”
he so shouldn’t have agreed to do this lemonade- stand. so not worth it. 0/10 would not recommend.
