I love building up relationships slowly and agonizingly until they're at the point where there's so much deep pining that they haven't even realized. I also like to have characters initially be inexplicably attracted to each other but these two things would preferably not be happening for the same characters. It's one or the other.
I adore the dynamic between two dark, brooding characters and the way they shed their cool exteriors solely for the other. Not the biggest fan of Grumpy x Sunshine. I know, hang me because that's like one of the most popular dynamics out there. Basically, anything that has the characters butt heads are usually a yes in my books. I don't like to write against really cutesy, sensitive, frail etc. characters, even for females and especially for males. I want to see the characters have that spark in them and isn't afraid to stand up for themselves if need be. This doesn't mean they have to be really tough and burly all the time and I do like seeing people be vulnerable to their loved ones. For MxM, I don't write against twinks, sorry.
I prefer
plot over smut and any smut should be
tasteful and well-suited for the development of their relationship. It should be at a pivotal moment or at the end when they've finally earned it after their immense pining. I'm not currently looking for lots of smut right now but if that changes, I'll update this thread to match. If I had to apply a number, around
90:10 plot-to-smut ratio or 80:20. Also, another somewhat big preface: I don't have a lot of experience with smut. Due to some mysterious, unknown force, all of my smutty roleplays have never developed to the point of me fully completing a smut scene which, when you say it out loud, is kind of crazy, but that's how it is with me. Please don't expect me to fluidly write smut scenes because I can't, but I'm really willing to learn! If you're okay with me being a bit amateur on that side, I'd love to write and learn along the way.
I'll admit and say that I'm a vanilla writer. I'm not particularly interested in truly rough sex with themes such as gangbang/pain (like actually hurting past arousal)/BDSM etc. (Again, ask and we'll see if it would suit our characters and plot.) Of course, it won't be all boring sex though. I might add my f-list later.
Limits:
No toilet play or anything pertaining to the toilet.
No excessive gore.
No underage stuff or things alluding to that nature.
No non-con/dub-con.
No incest (includes stepsibling/stepmother/stepfather etc.).
No necrophilia.
No furries.
No vore.
No filthy sex. Not "Oh, you're so naughty." but rather "Oh my god, this is so gross." That includes smelly/filthy body parts and any kind of play surrounding them. For example, in the event that our RP is at the point where the characters are in a forest and
have to do it, they would have at least bathed in a river.
Most things that are considered extreme are just not my forte. Please do query what you have in mind because I
might be willing to do it.

If these words/phrases line up with what you like, please don't hesitate to reach out! These are a jumble of stuff I like, including certain tropes, dynamics, settings and themes. If it's
struck-through, then it means I've already started up something that focuses on those but, once those RPs finish, I'd be open to playing them again!
