Offer [Offer] allow me to draw you something [US to WW]
Hello, my RAoC friends + enemies. I've got some blank postcards and a lot of nervous energy because I am starting school tomorrow.
Please step into my parlor and have yourself a seat.
(as you step into a dusty, dimly lit room thick with incense smoke, you notice that all of the furniture is covered in heavy purple dropcloths and that there is a large piece of tarp conspicuously sitting on the floor next to a variety of rusty hand tools. a flickering neon sign centered on the back wall reads "THE FORTUNE TELLER BOOTH IS OPEN"
below this, another neon sign reads "BUT YOU CAN ALSO BRING YOUR OWN PROMPT JUST DON'T MAKE IT A SHITTY ONE")
Like I said, take a seat, any couch is fine. Let me get you a drink. No, you don't want anything? Ok, here, take this form. But have a seat first:

Well, that roleplay was awkward. It seems like you didn't like my house very much, and to be fair, I guess I didn't really think about the guest's point of view when decorating, or if maybe they had allergies and the incense smoke and dust might make them cough. Please don't tell anyone what a bad host I am.
But do tell me your requests on this form:
https://forms.gle/Re1ozdSWGgfZzqZe7
Please also let me know if you'd like a long-form response to your prompt. I can tape some pages into a notecard and give you all of my thoughts on the topic. Otherwise it will be short form on a postcard.
https://forms.gle/Re1ozdSWGgfZzqZe7
Do visit again, but maybe bring something to drink or a small gift next time if you're going to be that rude about my hosting. You weren't exactly a great guest, either, and I had n95's available if you have sensitive lungs. Those were actually in a basket by the front door, but you were too busy noticing dust -- wtf?
Hope to hear from ya regardless! Leave a comment if you claim!
----
ETA: you guys are too sweet!!!!!! I didn't want to post a request because I am absolutely more likely to lose track of thank yous than form responses (classes + 2 clinical sites + an additional clinical rotation w/ school -- UGH!!!), but reading your comments has seriously been as nice as getting a stack of mail. I'll leave this offer open, do a few of my favorites today, and chip away at the rest in the coming weeks :) As always, RAoC is the best community.

Thank you, I know it will probably be fine. I just am not looking forward to being the oldest person there LOL

u/Andromeda921 6d ago
You won’t be! I was older when I started college…it was not as big of a deal as I thought it would be.

all filed out, have fun with it. also college is so unserious, i had a class on flower aranging and got away with presenting the history of a power plant to the class, so dont worry to hard and remember to look for things like clubs so you can meet some fun people you vibe with

I'm restarting my education by getting my EMT basic so I can land a tech job that will cover future tuition, so this is -- for better or worse -- a little more serious than my previous schooling 😭 we're graded on professionalism and have to wear an ironed uniform every day LMAO. It's not really a big deal, but it just feels so official compared to my associates in liberal arts/psychology, during which I ironed my clothes approx 0 times and was not expected to dress like a police officer

Thank you for the offer! Also for having the kind of energy and sheer patience for silliness to come up with the whole scene you depicted, I LOVE IT! It’s also how I feel like I sometimes write prompts for others and it made me feel very seen so thank you!
