Scars are the paler pain of survival received unwillingly and displayed in the language of injury.

lyrical aesthetic
"I guess it goes to show, does it not?
That we've no idea what we've got until we lose it
And no amount of love will keep it around
If we don't choose it
And I don't know what's got its teeth in me
But I'm about to bite back in anger
No amount of self-sought fury
Will bring back to glory of innocence." 
                           —  Take Me Back to Eden, Sleep Token

"Of all the stars I admired, drenched in various rivers and mists, I chose only the one I love. Since then I sleep with the night.

Of all the waves, one wave and another wave, green sea, green chill, branchings of green, I chose only one wave, the indivisible wave of your body.

All the waterdrops, all the roots, all the threads of light gathered to me here; they came to me sooner or later.

I wanted your hair, all for myself. From all the graces my homeland offered I chose only your savage heart."
— Pablo Neruda.

writing format: detailed 3rd, para to multi-para.
activity: 6/10
muse: 9/10
speed: 4/10
Overall, I heavily prefer walls and rooms for roleplaying. PM is for plotting/ooc inquiries or content that is not suitable for public spaces i.e. or rated roleplaying in general.
‣ writing style
I almost exclusively write in 3rd POV. That's not to say that I can't do 1st for smaller replies, but for the larger, more official ones, I prefer 3rd. Furthermore, I enjoy replies that are at least a paragraph long. As with length comes time. Longer replies will take a longer amount of time.
‣ plotting
I prefer plotting over random starters. Winging is okay if the muse is there, but most of the time, plotting is superior in my book. Don't approach me if you don't have an idea in mind. I often don't care who writes the starter. It's usually a toss up to who is willing and/or has the time at that moment. 
‣ reply speed
I tend to be slower when it comes to replies. That's only because I value quality over quantity, so keep that in mind. However, my reply speed can also be directly tied with my muse level. If I really enjoy a plot or person, I will likely have a faster reply speed, but don't count on that. It's not always indicative. Communication is key here. Let me know if your muse drops or if you'd like to not continue roleplaying.

Description

bg notes:

  • still working out the details, but it's a case of the classic survivor's guilt after family was killed
    now his entire life's purpose is making sure that no one else gets hurt under his watch
  • now he overcompensates with a harsh exterior, rarely lets people into his personal life
    when in reality, all he wants is to settle down, but the trauma makes him think that he'll lose that family too if he lets his guard down
