Things I wish the Tumblr RP comm would get back to or be comfortable with again because I'm rp old and I've seen how much has changed and man the rp comm is not as fun as it used to be.
Crossovers. Just crossovers where we ignore canon cast and it's okay again to have two different muses from vastly different series interact. Like seriously why do I never see crossovers anymore what happened they were genuinely fun.
Reblogging general aesthetics / musing / music about our muses without 'clogging other people's dashes'. I don't know when it became a general dislike when someone reblogged stuff related to their muse, but for whatever reason it's distasteful now and I don't get why.
When we all were stans for familial / platonic relationships and how deep those went.
Promos being reblogged instead of just liked. Liking doesn't do a thing on tumblr no matter how much they try to make it work. Reblogging gets peoples muses seen.
Interacting with people's ooc posts to show interest or support toward other people's muses.
That small window of time when people were happy to give female muses and ocs a chance.
Also that small window in time when multi-muses weren't as harshly criticized but now we're back to that.
Generally just being far more open and nurturing creativity without worrying.
there were about a million reasons why barbieland was far superior to the real world; and yet, this barbie too wondered about the world beyond those pink plastic walls. she wasn’t smiling anymore, instead, she took all the information allan was giving her in, nodding her head ever so slightly. " i get it, " she’s quick to affirm and support her friend, though her own mind has been subjugated to peculiar thoughts lately. she wasn’t even phased anymore about the language used by other dolls, it became a habit for such words to be uttered with nonchalance. " but you’re not alone, allan. i think we’re all broken or sick or … " there’s a pause, in which she tries to find the appropriate term ; it was easy to feel the feeling, but not so much to explain it, it seems. " we are simply becoming something else. i don’t think we were meant to stay the same. nothing is. just because we take the same route everyday doesn’t mean it’s supposed to be the same. i’ve noticed recently more dolls seem to have problems with their schedules and everything. but that’s okay. " it wasn’t, because she doesn’t know why that happens, only that she accepts it. but there’s a small flicker for knowledge, a hunger that no pancake could fix. " i think we should take a trip into the real world and see where the journey will take us. we can conduct, as scientist barbie said, an experiment. and, if the conclusions are good for us, maybe the others can join. "
b4rbieroberts asked: 🙶 do you really want to leave barbieland? 🙷 / sidenote but i think allanland should be a thing. i'm just saying....
" YES. " did he say that a bit too quickly ? there's a lot there.
a sigh. he sits down next to barbie , looking out at the painted pink sky. " i mean , i feel like i'd be lost .. but when ken came back , he seemed like a completely new person. i wanna feel like i belong. you've always been nice to me though , barbie. i just .. i'm just so gosh darn confused ! " he threw the d word in there. surely if the other barbie's would hear such a phrase uttered , they'd be disgusted. but he wants to be real with barbie. REALLY REALLY REAL. like , not plastic.
" i think about dying a lot. "
this barbie's going to the grocery store or whatever lidl is. however i feel like writing short stuff when i return home. so give this a heart or comment anything silly and you will soon receive a small starter thing in your inbox!

describe your character’s relationship with their mother or their father, or both. was it good? bad? were they spoiled rotten, ignored? do they still get along now, or no?
as a doll, barbie doesn’t have a mother or a father, she just has… an owner. it could be a little girl or a little boy, it could be an adult, a collector, even you. do you know where your barbie dolls are currently? in a private verse with @chaoticjoke it’s stated that joker’s the owner and from barbie’s perspective, she’s delighted. it makes sense he would be her owner since he has a dramatic flair and a knack for improvising. that being said, her relationship with her owner, no matter who it is, is all good. even when she’s ignored, tossed aside and forgotten. she deems her human as good and perfect for her. she doesn’t have a moral compass — she knows some stuff, but that doesn’t cover the tip of the iceberg that is humanity (and its fuckedup-ness) — therefore she will accept about anything and believe if someone, especially her owner, says that something is right, even if it’s socially accepted as wrong / deviant, you name it.
as a human, barbie was (and still is) a spoiled brat, dearly loved by her parents. she’s the oldest among five siblings and you guessed it, she loves them too. meanwhile there was no difference in the way the parents treated their children, barbie did always wonder whether or not she was enough. this jealousy plays a huge role in her path towards stardom, which was a way of showing off, or better said, standing out among her siblings. but she didn’t hold grudges with her siblings, it was their parents that she had mixed feelings about. anytime she got off filming, she would visit her siblings and spend quality time with them. to put it in other, simpler words : barbie had a great relationship with both her mother and father, she was spoiled and they still get along. and also, she’s got the oldest child syndrome. it’s important to note that outside barbieworld, she’s a flawed human with obsessions, needs etc.
