RP used to be my life. I started on Second Life, writing both short and long form RP. Through the years I've mostly written with the same people but... those people aren't available any more.

My best friend and favorite writing partner unexpectedly passed away just over a year ago.

I'm sure I don't need to explain to you what kind of connection you can form with someone you write with. I'm also sure you understand how much of a coping mechanism that RP itself can be.

so... when that coping mechanism, your story-your characters- becomes painful due to the constant reminder of your lost partner... it's a very difficult and complicated feeling.

I miss RP though. I try to write alone and I hit wall after wall. I want to write with other people.

But I'm also scared. Scared of embarking on an entirely new adventure. New characters. Fandoms. Scared of having to organize a story entirely alone. Scared of everyone walking away.

Honestly, I'm just kind of hoping for someone to pull me and adopt me into their story to help me take the next steps to finding my writing voice again.

Fandoms I've written for or have interest in include:

Avatar: The Last Airbender (OC Universe)

Miraculous Ladybug (haven't really written, but have been revisiting and have on mind)

League of Legends (wrote as Lulu )

I enjoy stories with
enemies to lovers, secret identities, crime.

Don't write above T rating.

Am open to entirely original content

Hello and welcome to the guild. I'm terribly sorry for your loss, and the mark it's left on you. Such tragedy can really be so devastating. Still, I applaud you for your desire to push onward. Undertaking new commitments can be frightening, and with how often RPs fade away, I understand completely the wariness of joining a group that might be gone tomorrow, or never begin in the first place. At the end of the day, all we can really do is try to forge ahead, hoping that everything holds together for as long as possible. I certainly hope you find what you're looking for, giving you the chance to enjoy your passion once more.

If you're looking for really solid, dependable groups, you might profit from looking at long-running RPs with decent activity. The Casual section generally has the most options. As intimidating as it can be to jump into an RP that's been around a while, those are probably the ones that'll continue to stick around for years to come. I'm blessed to be a small part of one such group of rockstars, and I wish you the best of luck finding the same!

Thank you for the welcome. I've been poking around a bit but struggling to focus long enough to catch up enough on any established RP. Hoping I'll do better tomorrow when I've got my ADHD meds in my system, hah. I may try some of the faster RP first just to ease myself back into it. I've been pretty frustrated with myself and the anxiety I've felt over this. RP used to be so easy for me.

welcome
