Pro-ship/anti-ship is a stupid argument and a distractor from the real issue, which is not what you write but how you write it. Writing is a form of art and a lot of art centers on drawing inspiration from real things, which yes - includes uncomfortable topics and issues. We base art and writing on our perspectives and experiences and the hard truth is that these things are not universal. Inevitably, you will come across things that are different, disturbing, and sometimes - gasp - bad. You have a choice to interact with that content or not, but policing how other people engage with it or utilize creative outlets to tell their stories, especially if they have experiences with those subjects, is neither your business nor right. On the other side of the spectrum, writing dark or uncomfortable topics is not inherently bad or morally wrong. I would argue that, when done in certain ways, doing so can start conversations about things that need to be talked about. It can bring awareness to issues. It can be used to connect to people who have experience with these sorts of subjects to bring them comfort by reminding them theyโre not alone. It can even be used to normalize talking about these problems in away that prevents stigmatization and stereotyping of perpetrators or victims. Seeing things in media helps make us aware of them and helps conversations happen. The trick is that these subjects should be done in a way which does not glorify or sexualize the actions, and does not create or perpetuate stereotypes about the perpetrators/victims. The fact that this argument has been reduced to a black and white, all or nothing type issue when it is so complex is really disheartening. This idea that you have to be completely for or completely against something and take sides while completely disregarding the nuances ends up bleeding into other things and preventing us from having real conversations about problems. The RPC needs to understand that what you write is not nearly as important as how you write it. Anything can be bad if you donโt take the time properly research it and address it with the care and respect it deserves.

PROMPTS FOR LISTENING IN / EAVESDROPPING * ย assorted dialogue, adjust as necessary
i heard everything you said.
can you make out what they're saying?
hang on. i can hear them talking in the other room.
did you hear that?
how long were you listening?
keep this between us.
you were listening in.
i didn't want you to hear that.
well. now you know the truth.
maybe if you put your ear against the door, we can hear them.
did you catch anything that was said?
i wish i could hear what they're saying.
so when were you going to tell me the truth?
that conversation was private.
how long have you been standing there?
i was going to tell you the truth eventually.
how much did you hear?
it's not polite to eavesdrop, you know.
i heard you mention my name.
what was that conversation about?
why were you hiding that from me?
why can't you just say it in front of me?
it's not the right time to tell you.
this is between us.
i heard you say my name, so i came to find out what's going on.
you can tell me the truth.
i already know what's going on.
there's no point in whispering.
it's too loud. i can't make out what they're saying.
try getting a little closer.
let me try to hear what they're saying.
wait here. i'll sneak up on them.
don't say a word.
be quiet or else they'll hear us!
did i just hear that right?
well, you heard wrong.
that's not what i said.
this is what happens when you eavesdrop.
you didn't hear everything.
you're taking things out of context.
i wasn't listening!
not a peep! you understand me?
i was just standing here, minding my own business.
i didn't hear a word.
that's not at all what i implied.
i'm not sure what i heard.
you heard that, too, right?
i don't want you listening in on any more conversations.
maybe i heard a few things here and there.
tell me what you know.
why are you whispering?
i hate it when you keep secrets from me.
i feel like people keep interchanging MAINS, EXCLUSIVES, and AFFILIATES and haphazardly using them without really recognizing what they mean, so here's a brief description of the differences.
MAINS are the primary group of roleplay blogs you interact with on a regular basis. you might choose to prioritize them in terms of replies or ask memes, or focus on their dynamics more often than you do others.
EXCLUSIVES are the only version of that character you will write with. as an example, if you add a canon superman or a princess jasmine to your exclusives, it means you will not write with or follow any duplicates of those characters.
** this can also include FACECLAIM EXCLUSIVES, where you won't follow duplicate faceclaims of your favorite blogs. weird example, but if you're writing with a blog using tom hanks as their faceclaim, you might say you're faceclaim exclusive with that blog and refuse to write with or follow any other blogs using tom hanks.
AFFILIATES are blogs with extensive ties to your blog's canon. their characters are weaved into your storyline to such a degree that you cannot separate them from one another. maybe they're your primary or single ship partner. maybe you created the characters together. maybe they're from the same piece of media and you want to establish their significant ties to your muse and their story. this is a step up from exclusives, and their url is often linked in your pinned or placed on your rules page.
It wasnโt uncommon for Nyota to scrape up a gamma shift, she liked the quiet din of the ship, the soft hum of the instruments on the bridge. There was simply this comforting strangeness she felt, as though she were more intimately connected with the vastness of space.
Though space had very little to say back to her on this gamma round, and in a lull of focus she turned to her left, toward Spockโs station, but before the words can bloom in her mouth Uhuraโs noticed the tinge at the very tip of his ears.
โAnd where are the deep mysteries of logic concerning this futile fight against whatever sickness has your ears green?โ
@vulku
if there is a faint green flush to the tips of his ears, dusting across the highs of his cheeks and along his nose -- he says nothing. in fact, he is dutifully ignoring these symptoms of an obvious ( if mild ) illness, in favor of working diligently.
