Rules


  GENERAL.    this blog is independent, semi-selective and private. this is just for fun, i will write when i have muse and time, which means sometimes it takes two seconds and sometimes two months. please don't pester me! feel free to send a reminder or two, but if it becomes overwhelming I will likely lose interest. be kind and we will get along great!  MUN.    my name is micha and i have been roleplaying since 2011, on tumblr since 2014. i have enough experience to cut posts and some light formatting, but i don't use icons or gifs and i use the tumblr fonts. this of course does not mean i mind if you format your posts differently!  INTERACTIONS.     i am mutuals only, meaning that if i do follow you – i want to write with you! i reserve the right to avoid certain genres or turn down a specific plot, since muse is a fickle thing.  SHIPPING.     shipping is chemistry-based! i write jay as heterosexual because that is how he has been portrayed in canon. this does not mean that i automatically ship with every female muse, and if jay has enough chemistry with a male muse i might diverge. i will not ship jay with your muse if the age difference is larger than ten years.

  TRIGGERS.    i do not have any triggers that i avoid, but due to the nature of the character and the shows there might be possibly triggering content in my writing and musings. i will tag all the potentially triggering stuff with β€œtw trigger” and all the possibly smutty posts with β€œπš—πš˜πš πšπš˜πš› πšŽπšŸπšŽπš›πš’πš˜πš—πšŽ ; mature”. if there is something you want me to tag just for you, just ask!  WRITING.     asks with memes are always welcome! whether we have written before or not, all i ask is that multi-muses specify which muse it's from. i will often assume asks are to be turned to full threads if i can see a way to do so, but if you don't wish to continue it just let me know. i am also up for plotting threads beforehand, just send me an IM.  COPYRIGHT.     i do not own jay or the one chicago universe, credit belongs to dick wolf, nbc and jesse lee soffer. however -- i have developed my own version of this character through headcanons and time. THIS version is mine, and i would really appreciate it if you do not try to steal my writing or musings.  CREDIT.     while i am fully responsible for any writing that happens on this blog, all the graphics (icons, borders, promos) are due to zanza (zanzabug). do NOT steal those either!

Verses


  CHICAGO     The main verse, mostly canon-compliant with the One Chicago shows. Depending on where on the timeline the thread is, Jay might have varying relationships, headspaces or job descriptions but it will never diverge from established canon all too much.

  NEW YORK     Instead of Will coming back to Chicago like in canon, Jay followed his brother to New York and got a job with the NYPD. Mostly based on New Amsterdam, but will also be used in connection to Brooklyn 99 and the Law & Order franchise.
Tagged: πš’πš— πš‘πš’πšœ πšπš˜πš˜πšπšœπšπšŽπš™πšœ ; nyc
  CHILDHOOD     This covers Jay's life from ages 0 to 18. Will mostly be used for high school threads, but might be applicable to younger ages when writing with family members. Follows the bio and the thread points.

  AFTER     Everything that happens after canon. Jay's time in Bolivia, what happens with him and Hailey, and whether he returns to Chicago PD or something else. Very thread-dependent since there is no canon to lean on.

  ATLANTA     After Erin left with the FBI, Jay soon found himself being too reminded of everything he could have had in Chicago and he watched everything slowly fall apart in Intelligence. He contacted his old army network, and was stationed at a smaller base in Atlanta, Georgia. This verse connects to The Resident but is not exclusive.
Tagged: πšπš˜πš πš— πšœπš˜πšžπšπš‘ ; atlanta
  RANGER     This is the verse for Jay's time in the military BEFORE he became a cop. It covers boot camp, every tour to active war zones and his relationships, acquaintances and losses from his first round of active-duty.
