So like. Sometimes, I look at my characters and I go, "Is this what I'm defined by?" But then sometimes, I feel comforted by the fact that they're not actually that easily definable. Sure, there are a few traits here and there (family craziness? check. codependency? checkcheck and so on), but ultimately there is no fucking way you can say Merlin and Leto are similar or Dean and Kirk, despite their ridiculous six degrees and same height and so on are the same. So, I have broadened my horizons in my RP. I do have a character type I'm more attracted to, for sure, but at the same time, I could go, "See that guy over there? I could play that."  I feel proud to say that now. I think a few years back, there was no way I could do that. But now, I can. Score!

Does anyone ever think about that? About being defined by the kinds of things they like? It's not a sore point, but sometimes I wonder how other people look at it. Do they see it as, "Fuck it's my type, I'm so boring" (which I used to do!) or "Dude, this is totally my type I love it!!!" etc, idk I'm just saying things randomly (without examples!!).

On another point, I like how my type apparently went from "ridiculously topped characters" to "girly-men". Also, I fiddled with my inksome so it looks decent and a mood theme! I am so proud!!! ... I have too much time on my hands!!

Well, I enjoy challenges! And every time it is difficult, I find some kind of cheat to make up for it. Like Leto can be considered as a character that is impossible to play, but bluffing does wonders.

Oh, me too. Otherwise I wouldn't have apped so many of the characters I have now, but I tend to be more insecure in my playing than I should. I love your Leto and his bluffing. ♥

You shouldn't be insecureeeeee. If you love the character, then trust in the fact you do a good job at him and always keep yourself updated. Read something about him! Check wiki, recap, etc.
