I referred to an upcoming outing with my friend as a "playdate." Not only do I look 10, but I act it as well.

Bio

I'm an eighteen-year-old autistic trans boy with a great love of people and Pokémon. I play Dungeons and Dragons and other tabletop RPGs, and am heavily involved in the Nuzlocke Forums. I tend to ramble quite a lot and can seem rather pretentious, as I have a large vocabulary and tend to utilize it without thinking. I swear I'm a nice person I just sometimes Aspie out and end up going on super intellectual, disjointed rants.

I'm an advocate for civil rights and hope to become a journalist some day. I'm very queer and have a wonderful girlfriend, and hope one day our love will not be regarded negatively.

I generally enjoy well-executed genre deconstructions and stories which focus on plot and characters. Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Gintama, Baccano!!, Steven Universe, Gravity Falls, and Avatar: the Last Airbender, among others. As a roleplayer, I tend to lean towards these shows and elements.

@Shaymin I'll wait a few more days for them to respond. If they don't, I'll ask a mod if it's ok for us to keep going. I think that'll work.
Oooh, I love slice of life/urban fantasy mashups, count me interested.
The soundtrack of Steins;Gate. My girlfriend and I just had an occasional-napover and binged the entire anime, and among its top-notch qualities is its music.
@Shaymin Yeah, honestly now that I'm less panicky I don't really see how my roleplay is a copy? It is pretty similar, but mostly in terms of the system and the whole Madoka roleplay setup. I PMed them as soon as I got the comment but they haven't replied. Still, I wouldn't feel right doing this roleplay without them saying it was okay with them, their roleplay was what inspired me to start Dum Spiro Spero and where I got the system from.
@The Elvenqueen It's a hellish thing, knowing you have to leave someone behind in a toxic situation and being unsure you can save them. And having to stay in the toxic situation...man, I want to hug you, I haven't gone through exactly the same thing but fuck did your post stir some feelings and memeories in me. One of the most vital resources you can have to get through this are friends--and I don't just mean friends you hang out with, but ones you can talk to about these issues, whom you seek help and comfort from. And remember that even if it feels like betrayal, like abandonment, moving away once you are capable could the best thing you can do to help your father and yourself. You'll end able to get out and start thriving more mentally, and possibly even help him. It's like a catch-22, almost, but keeping going like this will hurt both of you.

...ah shoot, looking at the next page it seems like I mirrored what HeySeuss said. It's still something I mean with all my heart, though. Good luck out there, friend.
Magical girls everywhere.
She was at the top of the world, queen of the forest and lord of the trees. Her hair rippled like waves lapping at the shore, navy standing strong against the fading oranges and pinks of the sky. Her wings were a blur, making a faint buzz as she hovered in place, looking over her dominion, the patch of trees and mess of bushes generously referred to as Umitori Forest.

Saeki Reiko took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and stretched happily. Life was good.

"I believe you are forgetting something, Young Mistress." A formal tone made a futile attempt to mask annoyance as the fairy Tsubame flitted in front of her charge's face for the umpteenth time.

"Eh...?" Keiko tapped her finger against her chin thoughtfully, almost swatting the bird-winged fairy away in the process.

"Your mother and father are not coming home for the next few weeks, remember? They trusted you to stock the kitchen, and there is not much in the way of supper foods, currently." Tsubame sighed as she righted her wingbeat. She was used to this by now.

"There's plenty of cereal and milk, and even some ramen in the back of the pantry Keiko stashed away just in case." Keiko smiled, waving to a crow who veered off its flight course in the opposite direction.

Tsubame found herself wishing she'd actually been hit so she could satisfy the urge to facepalm in a slightly dignifiable manner. She envied the crow. "That is not a responsible course of action," she folded her arms as if she were explaining to a...well, she was explaining to a child, "not only are they unhealthy and unsuitable options, but you are close to running out of food in the house altogether." How had this child managed to to survive a year like this, much less eleven?

"If you say so, Tsubame-san. You're very smart about these things." With a resigned sigh, the blue-haired magical girl shifted her wings to a more conventional, soaring-bird form and flew off in the direction of urban Umitori before Tsubame could say another word.

"Wait a second!" Tsubame was rather quick for a fairy, but wings to rival an albatross and the energy of an elementary schooler were difficult to catch even for her. Luckily, Keiko took notice of her fairy's plight and halted before she'd cleared the forest. You're going out like that?"

"I've fought a Negari before, and some people saw. This isn't very different, right?" Keiko's large, innocent blue eyes betrayed no sarcasm or malice, and Tsubame once more reminded herself she was dealing with a child.

"Still, it's better to stay in your civilian--normal form as much as possible, especially in public." Saeki Reiko's parents had done a shoddy job of teaching her societal conventions, the avian fairy thought. Furthermore, had they taught her anything but how to care for herself and the house? The more Tsubame thought about it, the less Keiko's parents seemed like parents.

"Like a secret identity! I'm sorry, Tsubame-san, I forgot about that." Keiko's apology abruptly interrupted her fairy's musings. The elementary schooler's lip quivered, and for a moment Tsubame was terrified that she would have to comfort a crying child. Luckily, Keiko swallowed, nodded, and swooped down, alighting close to the dirt road that lead to town. "Is it alright to do this? Flying is nicer than walking, and makes Keiko less tired."

The girl's smile was so earnest, and practically shone when Tsubame nodded her approval. As the pair headed to town, the avian fairy found she too was grinning. Try as she might, her face would not return to an appropriate level of neutrality.

Somehow, she wasn't entirely upset.
This roleplay is officially called off, until I get in touch with the original creator of the system and see what she'd like me to do.
Sorry that I haven't posted yet, had some rl things hold me up.

Post is now up! That's a lot longer than it looked in preview...
This is the first forum roleplay I've properly joined since a middle school mess of a Kirby roleplay, I'm super excited. I'm working on writing a story with an 11-year-old protagonist right now and this is gonna be some great experience, as well~
