What have you stolen?

Huh, maybe that’s where I got it from then. I always say beat, pause, etc.

Are we too incestuous a hobby?

I have stolen a lot of things over time. One of which is opening a scene with a [Before] and [Now] in the set, especially if it’s to get in an easy joke like [Before] Char: “I will never do that thing again” [Now] Char doing that exact thing.

This makes me laugh like every time.

It’s absolutely the best trope.

I have a tendency to subtly insert pop culture or meme references into my RP, often modifying the phrasing slightly to disguise them as my own cooking. I’ve never had anyone call me out on it, but I’ve definitely looked back at some of my posts and thought, “Oh my god, I can’t believe I wrote that.”

I stole THIS ONE EASY TRICK TO FOOL PEOPLE INTO THINKING YOUR RP IS AMAZING, and it’s also a neat trick to help get my mind into the character, kind of? And that is hyper-describe the tiny details, so long as the tiny-details are important to the vibe. All examples pulled from the fashionista, because that was the last character I came up with them for, and like… I’m lazy.

You do not arch an eyebrow. You arch a neatly trimmed, micro-bladed brow.

You do not use your hand. You use perfectly manicured fingers with the French tips.

You don’t just have makeup. You have flawlessly applied makeup… and also bring up the trouble you go through to make sure that lip gloss always looks super glossy!

---

This not only pads out your poses without adding a whole heck of a lot (so you get to big poses with less work, because I am laaaazy), but again… it helps give the VIBE of the character with equally minimal work. And since you are going to repeat it, it helps remind YOU of the vibe!

AND I STOLE THE WHOLE POSE METHOD/CONCEPT, because I am an imposter, fooling you all! YOU FOOL!

@crawfish It is not stolen if given out of respect!
