What Would Your OC Tell Their Younger Self

Posted 6 years, 11 months ago (Edited 5 years, 3 months ago) by Lonestarcelt

It isn't an uncommon thought to think back and wonder what you would tell yourself knowing what you know now. Everything from simply saying what the lottery numbers would be or what stocks to pick up to life advice such as things you wish someone told you when you were younger or something to easy a rough time in one's life. So wouldn't it stand to reason that your characters might feel the same way? That they may, in some way, wish to have the means to speak to themselves in the past. Of course some might literally have that ability, I'm not here to judge, this is more for the ones that can't but wish they could. In this thread I am asking you to look back throuh your OCs eyes and get a good look at their past. How they grew up. The things they wished someone told them or things they would want their youngerself to know from them directly. Essentially I'm asking you the simply question of "What would your OC tell their younger self?".

Before posting please keep in mind that this thread, due to it's nature, might contain possibly emotionally strong or triggering moments as well as allusions to potentially sensitive. As such, if you are made uncomfortable by certain topics and you see blacked out text? I suggest not looking through them at will. That said? While this thread is meant to be as sort of a source of thoughtful character self-introspection? Please keep in mind that it is an all ages thread. This thread is not listed as mature because not every single thing needs to be something potentially upsetting. Other things such as the afformentioned lottery numbers to a character simply wanting to tell their youngerself to have a good day have just as much a place as anything else. As such. If you are posting a comment that could be potentially upsetting to other readers? Please observer the following rules.

  1. Any sensitive text must be blacked out as such. Example text
  2. Not explicit or graphic mentions can be made in regards to the text. For example, Your character saying they want to kill someone is fine. Your character talking in vivid gory detail about said murder is not. Practice common sense and acknowledge that certain topics are sensitive and could risk the mental well-being of others if you do the above. 
  3. Keep things PG-13 at worst. Alongside the above? NSFW topics are not permitted. This isn't a mature thread. Watch what you post. 

Violation of these rules in particular will result in a warning on a first offense and a ban on the second

Along with that please keep in mind these additional rules just to make the experience more fun for everyone

1. You can either post your characters one at a time or as a group in an OOC post. Post options are perfectly valid. Just try not to dominate an entire page with your characters. So if you are posting a few on their own? Try to only do three at a time and let more people post in the interim before you go back to going one at a time.

Get some better standards when it comes to choosing a master too or you'll need to develop morophilia.... Fitting. Maybe you're meant after all."

"Maybe it was for the best that you were sent down. Maybe you dodged a bullet— if you had stayed, you would have been treated much worse. You've been given the opportunity to realise that what you've taken for granted is now liable to be taken away. Revel in your newfound mortality. You're better now."

You’ll meet various people that’ll make the pain worth it soon. Just... hold out a little longer, okay?”

And let me tell you, you can look forward to get the first leg injury in your entire life from dancing. Four years of football practice won't even help on that."
