general
This is a multi-muse blog with only two main muses. Nonetheless, the primary focus is on Spike Spiegel from the 1998 anime, Cowboy Bebop. Somewhat CANON DIVERGENT, this portrayal of Spike is heavily based on his characterization on the show.MINORS DNI. NON-ROLEPLAY BLOGS are allowed to ask questions regarding my muses or fanfic, but please don't reblog my personal headcanons or spam my notifications with likes. I do allow my art to be reblogged.Due to the content of the show, this blog may contain content of violence, guns, smoking, trauma, crime, gang, and slight nsfw themes. Mun is 25+. There will be no smut on this blog, nevertheless, I can be sensually tasteful in romantic settings that fades into black. Any such romantic endeavors of this nature will be tagged under: suggestive tw or cwI can tag certain content if anything may trigger you, please dm me beforehand.I understand that many have their own post formatting style. I tend to try to mimic my partners writing format and can make adjustments if my writing partner have visual difficulties reading to make it more accessible. (Ex: Changing from tiny text form to normal text size.)There will absolutely be no Godmodding allowed. The only exception to this rule will depend on the circumstances my muses find themselves in. I don’t want to get involve in drama or petty nonsense. And due to my anxiety and if I’m super busy, please don’t pester me with replies - once or maybe twice is enough.If you see me associating with someone problematic that has been proven with evidence, let me know in private.The icons and graphics of Spike you see on this blog have been created by me. The icons and art involving my oc, Niah, are mine and personally drawn by me. Don't steal my personal headcanon's, ideas, or icons, etc. . . it's fine to be inspired, but don't copy and paste the work I've introduced in creating my own portrayal of Spike Spiegel.I also use this blog to house my Cowboy Bebop fanfic: Concrete Roses, and oneshots/drabbles based on it. This fic actually inspired me to create this blog in the first place. But if canon x oc is not your style or you don't want to see it (even in shipping between muses) don't follow.
private
As of 2/19/2024, I am switching this blog from semi-selective to Private. Unsavory past experiences have left me more inclined to roleplay with a circle of friends I've grown to trust.I don't follow for the sake of following. I choose to select who I follow and want to interact with. I prefer to interact with mutuals, but if you’re interested in interactions please send me a dm and we can try to work something out between muses. I do, however, have a right to decline a muse - this usually happens if I feel uncomfortable with the character or genre they belong to.OC, OC x Canon, AU, & Crossover friendlyI'm fine with interacting with Oc's as long as there's a fleshly written bio available of said character if they interest me well enough. Nonetheless, as much as I enjoy original creations, there are some Oc's that may not pique my interest enough to interact.Outside the world of Cowboy Bebop, I also prefer to engage in fandoms I'm already familiar with. I can also get involve in fandoms I'm not familiar with, but it may take me awhile to do my research.
following & unfollowing
I don't do follow for folIow. Only follow if you want to interact. I've had people to follow me, but end up only ignoring me when I send a dm. If you follow, please do so if you're actually interested.When I follow, it shows my interest in your muse for the pure intention of interacting between muses and muns. I will usually send out a message that shows my interest - I always do. 95% of the time I’m usually the first to reach out to anyone through a dm and wanting to know more about your muse and share ideas.The highest chance of me following you back is when you have a written bio and rules page available for me to read. It’ll also help if you have a mobile navigation option that links to your information since most times I'm not able to use my computer.However, if I do follow you and you don’t follow back or don’t respond to a dm I sent, I will get the impression you don’t want to interact with me or my muse and will decide to unfollow after around a week has passed so I can keep my dash uncluttered. I’ll also unfollow/soft block if you don’t show interest in interacting with my muse or me at all after around 2 months. I can refollow though if you are interested.I will unfollow/soft block if I feel there's a one-sided relationship. I prefer to interact and give my energy to people who put in as much effort and interest as much as I do. If I'm the only one who suggest ideas 100% of the time and you contribute very little, or don't want to talk at all or don't reach out to me at all over a three-month period, I may get the impression that you might not be interested in interacting. This is fine if you're not and I encourage you to unfollow if that's the case.I remain partners with people who interact with me, my muses, and my posts. I'm more likely to reply to your threads quicker if there's ooc/ic interactions. But if it starts to feel like more of a chore or difficult trying to approach you, I will most likely unfollow.I don't like the feeling of being a mere number in a follower list. I'm not one to chase people, and if I begin to feel like I can't approach you, I will softblock to save everyone the trouble.All in all, I will unfollow in these instances: I don't think we click ooc or ic wise, you never interact or engage, you break my rules, you unfollow me first, anti-blackness / racism, multiple attempts at trying to interact ic but I don't get a response.
shipping
Romance is not the main focus on this blog. I am, however, open to romantic relationships between muses. Whether it is oc's or canon, I'm all for it !This is a multiship blog. I ship based on chemistry alone. I love all types of ships ( platonic, familial, romantic, ect.). I particularly love platonic ships because it allows the chance for muses to develop well-meaning relationships. It also opens the door for romantic feelings to blossom forth.I'm fine with pre-established platonic relationships. I am picky with pre-established romantic relationships, which will need some extended planning and in character interactions. But regardless, I always ship based on chemistry. I don't auto-ship.I'm fine if your muse might develop feelings for my muses, even if my muses don't reciprocate your muses' feelings. However, no force-shipping or guilt tripping behavior is allowed.Due to Spike's past experiences in canon, I am highly selective with romantically shipping Spike with other muses. This does not mean I'm against romantic endeavors involving Spike, but I will be more open to the prospect if there's chemistry between muns (ooc) and Spike had enough interactions with your muse to determine how he feels for them. Despite this knowledge, Spike is also known to sometimes tease and flirt with his opponent, which he may use to purely draw out a reaction and mess with them.Niah is also open for shipping in a separate verse ! She will be paired based on chemistry.There are two main verses I created to show Spike's state of mind when it comes to romantic avenues:Verse 1: (Pre-RFB) Spike is single, yet, busy and pained by heartbreak to delve into a romantic relationship. That isn’t to say he might eye someone for a moment.
Verse one involves the main timeline of the show when he’s living on the Bebop. The thought of romance barely crosses his mind as he fairly has low libido. Romance is not impossible in this verse, but it’ll take a while for him to show signs of interest if chemistry is present.Verse 2: (Post-RFB). Spike is courting an oc. Not dating but showing an interest. This is loosely based on my fic.
Verse two is a continuation from Real Folk Blues and is loosely based on the story, ’Concrete Roses’, between Spike and my oc, Niah. No shipping allowed in this verse. But muses are welcomed to interact and if they’re an oc they could have a cameo in the story. This Spike is a bit softer around the edges as he experiences a touch of domestic life.Verse 3: A multiverse where muses can have their own verse that wavers off canon from the show. Also has the possibility of a relationship development. If he’s tickled by someone enough…he just might. Spike’s personality is the same as in verse one.
Verse three is a multiverse where muses have a higher chance to possibly be shipped.
mun
Hey! My is name dawn. I’m 25+ and go by she/her pronouns. I’m a black girl who love to write as well as focus on my art. I'm also a professional illustrator; I’ve done work for Disney and other projects, so my main interest really involves working on new art projects with my original characters or dawdling in fanart of my favorite characters. But when motivation strikes, I also enjoy writing stories and poetry. Recently, I got back into my love for Cowboy Bebop, developing a new love for Spike Spiegel, and after thinking of a fanfic idea with an oc, decided to make a roleplay blog for him for the fun of his characterization.
turn offs.
I am not comfortable in interacting with the following: ghosts, vampires, witches, spirits, religious entities: angels, demons/devils, ect. (as well as characters who portray these entities), undead characters. I'm not comfortable with religious topics or certain religious imagery (Ex: Crosses) Please don't follow if your character matches these descriptions; I will not interact with such characters due to discomfort. I'm perfectly fine with multimuse blogs with other muses I can choose from.Fandoms thus far:
Bleach
DBZ
communication
Roleplay is a collaborative, communicative experience between writing partners. And with that being said, I'm a communicative person. This means I love to develop easygoing, fun relationships with my partners; I thrive on ooc interaction, which makes me more stimulated and eager to write with you. I love to plot and suggest / exchange ideas. I am, however, chronically sleepy, so at times it might take me a moment to reply to dms.Just a warning : I can’t see us being compatible as partners if you’re not communicative with me. Point blank. If you're not one who engages in ooc interactions, then I'm probably not the right partner for you. I have anxiety disorder, so I tend to take lack of ooc interactions ( or lack of engagement in general) as a sign of disinterest, and I will be swarmed with anxiety and overthinking.This does not mean:
- I expect a reply back to our thread if you are on.
- expect a reply to our ooc chat if you are on
- expect you to acknowledge my existence
but if there's a prolong lack of engagement for three months, I am going to think you're no longer interested.Of course, I’ll understand if you’re busy or something has happened irl that takes higher priority, but I'd appreciate it if I would be made aware in some way if that's the case so I don't get the wrong idea, as I would do the exact same thing for my partners.I do understand that some people are quiet and don't do ooc interactions, which I can understand. Sometimes I can get a bit excited and ready to write with you or plot; I guess I can be a little enthusiastic to show interest, but I also don't want to pressure anyone accidently. Unless I'm wrong for getting the wrong impression and you do want to continue interacting, I'd appreciate if you let me know. But if not, I think it'll be for the best ( as well for my own anxious overthinking) that you may need to find another partner who suit your needs better.And if you ever have a problem with me, please speak your mind and talk. We're both adults.
