001.  I AM OF AGE.  i will always check out your blog & make sure of your rules. 002.  NO ASSUMPTIONS.  i expect the usual rp etiquette and that includes no godmodding and no assumptions about my muse.  even if it is canon in your muse’s verse, talk to me first.  thanks ! 003.  ESL.  i’m from hong kong; i speak cantonese.  shit might fly over my head.  i’ll ask questions & i’ll make sure about stuff & i may not always understand you; english is challenging & i often struggle with switching tense, but i try my best to suit who i write with.  if you write ‘purple prose’, it's likely i won't even understand you. 004.  INTERACTING. 
⬥ if you cannot wait the time required for me to answer your ask / reply to a thread / write a starter, i ask that you do not rp with me at all.  i am very busy; i don’t purposefully ignore anyone.  if you unlike a starter call, i will scrap the starter.
⬥ you do not need icons to write with me!  I DON'T CARE about your formatting / blog aesthetic / ( matching ) word count; you DON'T need to look or write fancy to interact with me; my aesthetic is for myself, not for others.
⬥ i draw the line at passive replies.  passive replies are one-sided, don’t advance the thread, provide new or useful information for the other character, and play an inactive role by only reacting to 'XYZ' without adding anything proactive.  please be mindful & remember rp is a collaborative writing experience; communication is key & i'm always happy to plot!
⬥ i will not write with ‘self-insert’ ocs or outrageously ooc portrayals of canon characters.  it makes me extremely uncomfortable.
⬥ please don't SPAM memes / asks without the intent of continuing interaction.  i really didn't come here to write by myself.  i usually continue asks as threads, so always feel free to continue answered asks as threads !! 005.  CONTROVERSIAL TOPICS / TAGGING. 
do what you will, like what you want, but i am NOT here for abusive relationships, dub-con, or rape, & i never will be.  overall toxic relationships are still up for discussion—but straight-up abuse plots are not.
⬥ i DO NOT tolerate (malicious) ship bashing.  we all have our right to preferences, & i don't care for a lot of sw ships too, but openly bullying / shitting on people who enjoy a ship between two consenting adults is intolerable behavior.
⬥ this blog contains DARK THEMES such as war, violence, blood/injuries, adult/child slavery, childhood mental/physical abuse, implied death, mental/physical trauma, etc.
⬥ i tag all mature content accordingly, including descriptions of graphic warfare, injuries, blood, & even ships of your choosing, so if there's something you want tagged, do let me know!

 006.  SHIPPING.  i love shipping, but it is not a priority!  i portray cal as demiromantic demipansexual & i'm partial to merrin/cal & spyscrapper.  if interactions go well, sure, i'm always down for ships, but please note i’m not really here for only that.  any pre-established friendships/relationships are fine, but i prefer that we at least discuss any pre-established romantic relationships BEFORE interaction.  if you skip this process & assume or force a ship—canon or otherwise—then i will be averse to ship with you from that moment onward.  i prefer building relationships.  if you don’t like that or get tired of 'waiting' for me, unfollow. 007.  EXCLUSIVITY / MAINS.  not really into the idea of private 'cliques' / controlled interactions.  i've had bad experiences.  i just want to write and make friends if at all possible.  i take mains but the speed in which i reply to them isn't really affected.
my only exclusive is and will always be: @techniiciian. 008.  DUPLICATES / PLAGIARISM.  i welcome ALL duplicates.  i'm up for any kind of twin / duplicate verse, anytime !!  this is a given but please do not take any aspects of my portrayal; do not use me as 'inspiration'; do not use me as a 'template'.  this 'imitation' isn't flattery; it's DISRESPECT.  if i spot one too many strange "similarities", i will come for you, out you, & block you.  there is no excuse i will accept.  i never want to deal with something as soul-crushing as plagiarism again.be proud of your own work, not someone else's.  otherwise what's the point? 009. GENERAL MEDICAL ISSUES. 
I am autistic, physically disabled & visually impaired; i suffer from a CNS disease, anxiety, ADD, & depression.  I AM FULLY DIAGNOSED.  i’m slow & i won’t reply to everything on time. although maladaptive perfectionism is often considered a subtle form of OCD, it is aggressive in my case.  if it isn’t my eyes slowing me down, it’s this, on top of my IRL work.i am not someone who has time to lurk on the dash, so i often miss starter calls / memes.  please don't ever think i'm ignoring you, especially if we are mutuals!CURRENT 2025 STATUS: LOW / SEMI-SPORADIC ACTIVITY.
