Charity commission for a tumblr customer. I'm doing $10 headshot commissions if you donate the funds to my local rescue, Tazewell ARC! Details are here: http://korlynn.tumblr.com/post/144182961620/tazewell-arc-tazewell-arc-is-in-need-of All I need is a screencap of your donation to ARC with the comment about my tumblr and your username. You can edit out whatever personal information is there.

I think it would help more if there were some sort of cooldown on buying multiple houses per account. There are a lot of house flippers out there. A lot of the people who are transferring are transferring in alts with mains already on Balmung, too.

A screenshot commission for a tumblr customer!

Made a couple more! Also added something to Arry's picture! PM me if you're interested in commissioning a screenshot edit!

Made another! At least with this one I didn't have to draw too much hair! ...instead I had to draw other parts in.

I made one for Evariste, Aethericseafarer's Elezen!

Another screenshot manipulation of my unnamed Elezen lady!

First full blown photo manipulation on a screenshot I've done in a while. Three pictures, one smoosh! I thought about opening these up along with my headshot commissions, for $10. And my tumblr post with images used: http://korlynn.tumblr.com/post/143761250910/this-is-where-i-started-the-dress-i-picked-was

Ooooo. 1) Morpho 2) Expeditioner's Tabard 3) Orchestrion 4) Owlet 5) Lesser Panda 6) Calca 7) Bluebird 8) Fat cat

I have a new piece of art on my tumblr (which I'll post later), but I also have a new commission ad! Commission ad!

There wasn't an option for Performer/Entertainer, either. The closest one was mercenary. Considering the number of performer-based guilds that have greatly emerged in 2016, I see it as an omission. I just put it on other.

I'd push the button. Then everyone would mind their own business unless someone approached them for help/critique. There'd also be no drama over pretendy-fun times, because people can just walk away from things they don't like. Others realize it's okay for people to not like things and don't get upset when their ideas aren't blanket accepted and vice versa. Hard mode: Everything is a unicorn that shits rainbows and everyone remembers this is a hobby to have fun in.

i herd he was a bad hunter tho

Well as far as 'choosing', the original Ghost in the Shell story showed that Matoko's body is a mass-produced version, so it being 'Asian' would depend on the country it's being portrayed in. It also depends on if Scarlet is going to even be playing Matoko/Major. I expect them to change plot elements to make it appeal more to your traditional American audience, for instance, it won't be set in Japan, etc. I feel like Ghost in the Shell is one of those types of anime that you can change the setting as far as culture and country goes (unlike anime such as Airbender). Something like that would be going on all over the world with cyborgs fighting crime and whatnot. But for now all we really know is that Scarlet is going to be in it, and like other anime to live action adaptations it'll probably still suck.

...at least Iron Man was pretty ok?

This is pretty much how I feel about RP. You dress your Barbie up, get her a fake house and a fake car and sometimes you rip her head off. ...but only sometimes. Eventually you run out of Barbies. I think a lot of the time people forget that this -is- the internet and this is a game. All you have to do is turn it off. If things are getting out of hand emotionally, just turn it off for a bit. Go cool off. If people are bothering you, go do something else, turn off the game, turn off your social medias (including your RP sites and tumblrs). No one has to affect your OOC life unless you want them to. Yes, we're all people and we all have feelings, but we're also people who only talk through this medium. We don't see each other IRL, most of us don't even know the others' real names. To top that off, we're all playing imaginary characters in a made-up world in made-up scenarios. We turn it off, our characters stop. Once the RP stops being fun for you, it's time to turn it off. This should be no more serious than story writing, or playing music, or sewing or drawing. I'll repeat what I said before: The only person responsible for your happiness is you. Do what will make you the most happy, if that also happens to make someone else happy, then kudos.

I remember watching her videos. I loooooved it.

Hmmm, I've never really planned to kill a character. If my character does something stupid where one of the outcomes could be death, I accept that as a consequence. I'm a 'natural flow' type of RPer, but rarely does one of my characters not heavily weigh the fact they might die. It's why Arrelaine rarely fights in the open, she prefers to snip from hiding places, use traps, etc. Moving Mountains would likely put herself in such a situation, mostly because she prefers the challenge of combat (though it's rarely shown).

The OP has already said they feel the need to hide or go into offline mode to avoid them. It's not crazy speculation. It's not okay for someone else to make you feel that way, misguided or no.

I'm going to echo what others have said: You have no obligation to stick around with someone who is causing you OOC stress and trying to guilt-trip you OOC. Does the possibility exist that they don't know what they're doing? Yes, but it's not your responsibility to teach them or to help them if you don't want to. It's a stronger possibility they know what they're doing. If it's too much emotional baggage to deal with, tell them 'listen, this is too much, I'm out'. Yes, I've done the same with two other RP partners (I don't have many, for this very reason). They all knew I had a husband and I'm not interested in any OOC romance or anything more than friendship. The very -moment- the act clingy or express anything other than basic friendly intentions, I drop them and tell them goodbye. I don't play those games, been through that, been through too much in my life to let some person on the internet try to ruin my happiness OOC. If you feel it's worth it, and they'll change, then by all means attempt to rectify the situation. Whether or not it works completely depends on the other person. If they don't start changing, then for your own sake you need to drop them. If you stay in such a relationship without change, you're falling into a perpetual victimhood hole with this person you'll never be able to climb out of. Not without damage. The only situation you have to worry about is you. The only person who can control their way out is you. The only person who can control your feelings, your actions is you. And it goes the same for the other person. You are not responsible for their actions, their feelings or their words. You have to make them take responsibility for what they're doing, whether or not it's 'listen, you need to stop what you're doing, it's wrong; I'm willing to help you change' or 'listen, what you're doing is wrong and I'm out'. For those that don't understand the definition of obligation, here it is. There is a very clear, hard difference between obligation and desire. I have no obligation to help homeless stray dogs find homes, but I have a desire to do so. I have no obligation to the OP to give them advice, but I desire to do so. 'obligation [ob-li-gey-shuh n] noun 1. something by which a person is bound or obliged to do certain things, and which arises out of a sense of duty or results from custom, law, etc. 2. something that is done or is to be done for such reasons: to fulfill one's obligations. 3. a binding promise, contract, sense of duty, etc. 4. the act of binding or obliging oneself by a promise, contract, etc. 5. Law. an agreement enforceable by law, originally applied to promises under seal. a document containing such an agreement. a bond containing a penalty, with a condition annexed for payment of money, performance of covenants, etc. 6. any bond, note, bill, certificate, or the like, as of a government or a corporation, serving as evidence of indebtedness. 7. an indebtedness or amount of indebtedness.'
