- Did you have any of these "roleplayer crushes"? y/n, is it just me, being a creepy nugget?
Had a few times hearing myself going "damn I should find this person for roleplay".
- How do you handle these? Do you just send an aggressive PM/tell with things like "you, me, RP, 8PM EST"?
I just give them a PM honestly, and just ask they are busy, if not just simply ask them if they are up for roleplay someday.
That said if I do not roleplay with that person about instantly, I will neglect said roleplay for weeks on end, it not months. I simply forget about it. I'm a bad and I should be ashamed of myself.
- Stories to share? Bonus points for embarrassing things.
Uuh, met a couple of cool people on the RPC, including my Domri senpai. In truth, most people who've contacted on the RPC for roleplay have been unbelievably awesome, and count some of them amongst my friends now. Shame most people are all from the US, damn you for screwing up my sleeping pattern. Embarrassing things tho? I'm afraid I have to disappoint you there!
- Did senpai notice you, when you started emoting at them very very loudly?
Senpai noticed me to the point her char knocked up mine, they emoted very hard and very lewdly. Joking aside, yeah, I just fetch their attention instantly for roleplay, else I simply won't do it in the coming weeks. (HONESTLY IF I PROMISED U ROLEPLAY I MOST LIKELY FORGOT ABOUT IT)
- Just how excited do you get when plotting with these new people, and realize they love your ideas and bring even more material on the table?
In truth, I just let things roll as they go. Virella is arguably harder due to being to uptight Ishgardian she is, so I specificly seek out other Ishgardians for her roleplay; For Ave? Anything goes. Throw me your roleplay at her, and I will gobble it up.
As for plots and what not, I tend to be a bit more picky. First bit of roleplay will always be a matter of testing the waters before I start to plot with them. I first want to make sure the player and I are on a same line of lore, standards ect before I start plotting with them. And some characters I simply can't really plot well with a character's current story. It is all just wait and see for me really.
- Did like, once, this person was actually pretty awful and you regretted everything? Happened to me more than I'd like to admit, BUT, I still keep on pushing.
Oh yeah, I've met a few bad apples. Thankfully it hasn't been that bad on FFXIV, and I've managed to dodge a bullet once. I get really highly irritated by people being too overly 'thirsty' on an OOC level, some people confuse my characters for myself, but that is how bad as it has gotten for me.
EDIT:
Oh yeah, that happened as well! BUT WE DID IT, AFTER MANY MONTHS. And now Franz and Ave are the best of frenemies!

Ask Virella. It took months before we started actually RPing, but we spammed eachother in tells at least once a week/month with "WE NEED TO RP SOMETIME. HOW/WHEN?!?!". Then I guess the stars aligned or something.
