I have zero tolerance for OOC drama. If you have a problem with me, you have to come off of anon and talk to me. Not my friends. Not my roleplaying partners. ME. It’s much easier to sort out the issue in private than to gossip on my dash and cause trouble for everyone else. Vagueblogging, rumors and immaturity in general will never be tolerated here, and I won’t hesitate to unfollow, block, and blacklist you if you do so. It triggers my anxiety big time.
Also, anon hate will never be tolerated here. If you have a problem with me, you’re gonna have to reveal your identity.
I will roleplay with MUTUALS ONLY. If you follow me and I don’t follow you back, don’t be offended. I want to keep a clean dash. This includes sending asks. If we’re not mutuals and you send me an ic ask, I will not answer.
Please don’t call me sempai. I find it very insulting as it implies that I am above you, which I’m not. I am neither above nor below you. I am a person, just like you. If you’re gonna follow me, I’m going to ask that you respect that.
IC ≠ OOC
People I am friends with OOC may not be friends with my muse and vice versa.
I am responsible for Sokka's actions, but his morals are different from mine. Do not treat us as the same person.
Roleplaying and Interactions.
This blog’s default verse is post-series. However, I will gladly RP in other timelines and verses.
No godmodding/metagaming. Seriously, don’t do it. That shit ain’t cool.
Potential relationships, plots and OOC discomforts will be discussed with me.
Don’t be afraid to approach me if we’re in a mutual! Wanna send me a random starter? Go for it. Wanna tag me in something? Please do! If you want to talk to me ooc, tell me! These rules might make me sound harsh, but I’m friendly and always willing to start threads with new people.
I will happily accept constructive criticism about the way I portray my muse as well as my writing in general. Just give it to me politely.
Real life is more important than roleplaying. I am a busy college student with a workload the size of Mount Everest. So if I take a break, you’re going to have to respect that. That said, I am also lazy, forgetful, and a perfectionist. But I will get around to your reply eventually.
Do NOT badger me for a reply. Give me at least 3 days before sending me a gentle reminder. After that, keep the reminders to a minimum. If you guilt me into responding before I’m ready, I will immediately drop the thread.
If you want to get my attention, I track the tag anomaliies.
My ooc tag is ╳ BOOMERANG. in case you don’t want to see my ooc shenanigans.
I am open to script, paragraph and multiparagraph styles of writing. Novella is still in the works.
I am open to OC interactions, provided that they are well developed and interesting. I don’t want to deal with Mary Sues/Gary Stus.
I will interact with people from other fandoms I am familiar with. If I don’t know your fandom, I won’t follow you.
I am very picky about following back alternates/duplicates of my character. I am not trying to be mean or condescending, but I don’t really like to talk to duplicates of my character for two reasons: 1) I may get insecure about my portrayal and 2) there’s not much we can do with two of the same muse aside from the whole “Oh hey, you’re me,” stuff. There are some people who can pull it off, but I’m not one of them.
Shipping and NSFW
I am currently 20 years old, while my muse’s age ranges from 12-18 depending on the universe he’s in. US law prohibits any sexual activity with a minor (that is, anyone under the age of 18), including sexually explicit roleplays. I will not write NSFW threads unless the mun and the muse are at or above the age of consent. Fade to black scenarios are permitted, however. Otherwise, smut is welcome on my blog and put under a read-more as well as the tag nsfw ///.
Shipping is based solely on chemistry. That is, if you feel that our characters interact well, send me an ask. Who knows? I might feel the same way. But if I disagree with you, you’re gonna have to respect that. Force a ship on me and I will automatically unfollow you.
There will be NO Sokka/Katara of any form on this blog.
Tagging/Triggers
Triggers on this blog may include blood, gore, violence, mentions of the supernatural, and possible verbal and emotional abuse. They will all be tagged accordingly. If you ever need something tagged, don’t hesitate to tell me.
That said, please tag the following: spiders, animal abuse, anti Semitism, emetophobia/emetophilia, vore, rape, incest, dubcon, pedophilia, eye gore, suicide, and car accidents. If you don’t, I will unfollow you immediately.
Tag your OOC negativity.Please. I understand that people have their off days, but coming onto a dash full of negativity and drama makes me seriously uncomfortable. If you have to vent, please tag it as negative //. If you don’t do it once, I will ask you politely to tag it. The next time, I will unfollow you.
I’m going to be very picky about tagging ships. If the ship legitimately triggers you, I will tag it. Otherwise, I will not do it. It makes roleplaying more tedious both for myself and my partner.
Graphics
Do NOT steal my graphics.That includes my theme graphic, my icons, promo banners, etc. I put hours and hours of work into making this blog look good, so stealing my stuff is not cool. Trust me, I will know.
If you win a graphic (theme, promo, etc.), please use it. I put a TON of effort into my graphics, and it really hurts me when no one uses my giveaway prizes. If you don’t like a prize, tell me and I will make you a new one as soon as I can.
Personal blogs should not EVER reblog my promotion banners. Promotion banners are to attract the attention of potential followers/roleplaying partners. They’re supposed to tell everyone who you’re roleplaying and in some cases, give a snapshot of what you’ll see in the blog’s content. If you rp on a sideblog, reblog the promo banner on there, not your main.
Do not ask me questions about graphics and coding. I am a roleplaying blog, not a resource. Any questions pertaining to these two subjects will automatically be deleted.
Last words.
Please trim your posts. Untrimmed posts clutter up my dash and are a pain to scroll through. There are guides on how to do that both on the computer and on mobile. It’s easy and it takes literally five seconds. If I see an RP going over 4 lines, I will immediately unfollow you.
Do not reblog asks. I usually like to start threads via ask memes, but I cannot stand how reblogged asks look on my dash. Instead, copy and paste my answer into a new post and then type out your reply. Then we’ll have a nice, clean thread.
These rules will be updated as I see fit.
There. Now you’re done! If you’ve read these rules through to the end, send me “water tribe!” so I’ll know. I know it’s a lot and I may sound like a dragon lady, but I’m actually a really nice person. I promise.
Q: Hey, can we roleplay? A: Sure, but only if we are mutually following each other. That is, I must be following you, and you must be following me back.
Q: Nina, why haven’t you followed me back? A: There are many reasons why:
The notification got lost. (This is the main reason.)
I don’t think that your portrayal is up to my standards.
I don’t know your fandom/character well enough.
Your blog is clogged up with ooc.
I heard that you said something about my friends or stirred up drama.
I want to keep a clean dash.
Q: Okay, but do you make any exceptions? A: Absolutely not. I am aware that some people are interested in plotting with me, but I do not accept any roleplay requests from anyone who is a non-mutual. I reserve the right to decline a roleplay request at any time, and I ask that you respect that.
Q: Can I send memes if we are not mutuals? A: If it’s an ic meme, no. Sending ic asks counts as interacting with my muse, which is not allowed for non-mutuals. However, you are free to send me ooc memes!
Q: Why haven’t you responded to our thread? A: I’m really slow. I am very busy with university and real life obligations, which are extremely exhausting. This can drain my muse for a thread, especially if it’s a long multi-para. I might also get distracted by other things, such as other threads, answering asks, talking to friends, etc. I will get to our thread when I feel that I am ready. You are free to send me a reminder, but badgering me constantly will never be tolerated here.
Q: That theme/promo banner/icon is so pretty! Can I have it? A: No. I have disabled the right click shortcut for a reason. The graphics do make my blog look nice, but they serve another purpose: I’ll be able to tell who’s been stealing my stuff. Trust me, I will know. And if I catch you stealing any of my things, I will immediately blog and report you. No exceptions.
Q: Can you make me a theme/promo banner/icon(s)? A: I am a roleplay blog, not a resource. Mutuals are free to send me requests for graphics, and I may post the occasional tutorial. If anything, most of my graphics will be given out to close friends or giveaway winners.
iyashinomizu-deactivated2016063: "like i mentioned in my answer a few mins ago, i really adore your sokka! your portrayal is so spot on because you're able to express all of his feelings in such an amazing way, so reading your replies makes me so happy, i can easily imagine everything you say as sokka etc. stay perf forever!"
,&& the bender had difficulties fighting the urge to shout out loud at
her sibling each time another vocalized expression slid down his bottom lip, leaving e c h o e s to expand through the sphere surrounding the both water tribe ＰＲＯＤＩＧＩＥＳ.
how childish, unspoken words rushed through the nerves swirled up within the brain of the hearer but the muscles {never} allowed their exposition to the interlocutor. his orbs widened as the ＳＩＬＥＮＣＥ kept the only distance between the two southerners, pointing out the upcoming anger, both should have’s and shouldn’t have’s;
inner beast on the loose;
however, none of it came as expected.
❛ aang will feel way ＷＯＲＳＥ when he finds out you concealed such an important thing, sokka ! appa is our friend, we’ve been looking for him for days and you tell us ＮＯＷ that you know the exact place where you’ve last seen him !? he could be in trouble!
how can you be so selfish !? ❜
but what actually mattered?
He gritted his teeth, trying to bear the weight of his sister’s scolding. Her piercing gaze drove into his heart like an icicle, its chilly tendrils creeping down his spine. She was right: what he did was selfish and wrong. His lighthearted escapade had turned into a complete disaster. Appa could be in danger, and this time… He was the one to blame. Spirits know how Aang would feel if he discovered that his beloved bison had gone missing again.
“Yeah…you’re right. I thought I was trying to keep us together by not telling you, but it just came back to bite me in the ass…” As he spoke, the gears in his mind churned away, trying to concoct a plan to get Appa back. C’mon Sokka…think! Surely there must be a way.
He raised his head, brows knit in determination. “Alright, I’ve got an idea. I saw a couple of his footprints a few hours ago, so I don’t think he’s left the island. Let’s tell the others to split up and scour the island. Go tell Toph and Zuko to search the caves. Aang and Suki can look in the fields. Once you’re done, meet me back here and we’ll search the beach.”
not doing the open answer shit since i’m way too lazy

I see Sokka as a nighttime person. Though he is very alert during the day, night is the most relaxing time of day.
After his father left to fight in the war, Sokka had a lot of sleeping problems. He wouldn’t go to sleep until very late at night. Nevertheless, he found a good way to fall back to sleep. For instance, he would sneak out of his tent, climb on top of his little watchtower, and gaze at the stars. His father had taught him how to map out the constellations, so he would mentally recite their names until he was too sleepy to review them any longer.
Sokka can sometimes be found stargazing to this day. Though looking at the night sky can make him feel small, it also relieves any doubts he has about himself. He can see Yue beaming down at him, reminding him how far he has come since her ascension to the heavens. And sometimes, he can hear his mother’s spirit telling him how much he has grown up.
“I-I never said it was a game! Look Katara, you’re really overthinking this whole–– I-I mean, it could’ve been Momo… UGH!” He let out a dramatic, exasperated sigh, slapping the heel of his palm against his forehead. Good job Sokka, you completely blew it. His terrible lies were being destroyed like a tidal wave crashing against one of his crude sand sculptures of Suki. It looked like it was time to tell the truth. If he didn’t, then he’d be in even more trouble. Ugh, why did she have to be so motherly?!
“Alright, FINE! Yes, I was the one who lost Appa. I took him out for a little joyride around Ember Island, and I left him behind to do a bit of exploring. When I came back, he was…gone.”
Blue hues shifted down to his sandals as he continued, his voice lowered to a regretful whisper. “I’m sorry I lied to you. I just…didn’t want Aang to find out. You know what happened last time.”
