Hello! My name is ShankySpice and I used to write on this site once upon a time, but that account is long gone and my urge to write sticks around...so I am back. I haven't used this site in a heckin long time so forgive me if I forget how to use the coding and mechanics to make things look nice and neat, I used to have it down but I'm a bit rusty haha. I am looking for some partners for some various 1x1's, but first, some things about me eh?
●ABOUT SHANKY●:
*I am a 34 year old nonbinary married lesbian, I will not write with anyone under 18.
*I have a full-time job. I will not reply every day, please be okay with a 2-3 times a week sort of flow from me.
*I am a high casual - low advanced novel style writer capable of writing multiple paragraphs, and grammar is important to me.
*I prefer to keep to one character per person with multiple side/minor/npcs for the sake of not feeling overwhelmed, but I can take on two characters if I am feeling compelled to and the desire to.
*I prefer to roleplay in DMS, email, or discord possibly (though the character limit is irritating) to keep things private for all parties involved as I do prefer mature themes.
*I prefer to hash out soft and hard limits and the like over message before starting the roleplay, as well as plot etc. I am a very communicative writing partner and hope to find people equally invested in building a great story together.
*I will ALWAYS play feminine or nonbinary characters, as that is what is comfortable for me, and prefer wxw/wlw or nonbinary leaning sapphic stories as again, that is what is comfortable for me. I will not write mxm or mxf as that is not a comfortable writing place for me and I have no experience or desire to write it. That being said, my sole purpose is to write stories about adventure, mystery, intrigue, tragedy. Romance (if it happens) will be taking a back seat to plot.
*I prefer to collaborate with fellow queer individuals but that's merely a preference, not a rule or limit. I will write with anyone I feel comfortable doing so.
*I reserve the right to cancel or drop out of any story at any time, but will communicate why and if that is to happen and would hope you will do the same. Just be considerate and respectful, we're both humans with emotions and crap. Be Kind.
*I am majorly looking for stories based in various fandoms that I love, as I am looking to save most of my in-depth world-building for my personal writing (tryna be published some day, ya know?) and use this site as a tool to kickstart my writing muse.
*Even though I'm looking for fandoms, that is simply the world that I wish to write in, I prefer to only play original characters in that said fandom, no canon characters please. I do not feel comfortable writing an established character simply because I am a perfectionist and would critique not doing them justice. Less anxiety when the character is my own, and more freedom.
ALright, now on to the fandoms that I am looking for:
☆FANDOMS:☆

P L O T B U N N I E S:
*I will preface this by saying I am not a Christian, I just know that the concept of the seven deadly Sins is derived from Christian mythology so this may have some inaccuracies to the belief system and is not based on it, I just like the idea
It's a very loose plot, but I have this idea of the seven deadly sins being trapped in hell for a crime related to their sin. Hell works in the same way as earth: forced to work a job for no pay. All meals provided, housing provided, everything necessary provided but nothing satisfies the people there. They survive, but don't live. Everyrhing is monotonous. That's the point of the torture, to make people feel dead while they're...dead. The devil, whatever his name is, no one sees him often, rules with an iron fist. But there's a rumor, a rumor that if someone were to make it past all seven levels of hell back to the surface, they'd be granted new life. We would be playing two of the seven deadly sins trying to escape the levels of hell together to be granted new life, and a new chance. The seven levels are basically where the people go during the day to be tortured, at "night" time they go back to their assigned housing in a neutral zone that houses everyone, it's called The Abyssium. I can go more into detail while we world-build together but people travel among the floors via elevators of all things. (If you've seen the Netflix show Kaos, the Underworld is what I'm basing this on with my own twist)
Each of the levels of hell is based on one of the seven deadly sins, based on the sin they committed. I would like us to customize our own sin's level/punishment and like how it's designed/ what the people there are being punished like.
So yeah, basically we're playing two of the sins who are living their monotonous lives of torture, eat, sleep, repeat and they're a bit fed up with it. They want a second chance at life, so they have to fight through each level of hell (backwards starting at 7) together so that they can earn a second chance at life. I want us to design each level based on the sins ourselves and world-build it ourselves a bit, but this is the general idea.
×THEMES×

Hello, I saw your post and noticed you wanted to write in a couple of fandoms that I've been craving for awhile. If you're still interested in doing PJO, Harry Potter, MHA or HTTYD I would be more than happy to write something with you.
