“WE ONLY HAVE ONE RULE!”

No GODMODDING, No FORCESHIPPING, etc.

*** AS OF 7/3/2016 I AM NO LONGER TAKING NEW THREADS!!! Only exceptions will be advances made by MYSELF. This does not mean we can not speak ooc, send memes or you can not express interest, but as of now I am limiting myself to EXTREMELY SELECTIVE threads and memes***

REGARDING NEGAN:

Negan is a perverse, violent, disgusting, sleazy, VULGAR man. So:

1. Just because he flirts, does not mean I ship it. ( Shipping comes from chemistry.)
2. He is going to swear. A LOT. If you know anything about Negan, you know his favorite word is “fuck”. ( or “shit” depending on the medium) I will not censor him.
3. Negan is vulgar as FUCK. Any Canon Negan quote will be vulgar, NSFW, or something of the sort. That being said, I will not water him down for others muses. Only exceptions will be kids of certain ages, but other than that don’t expect him to be “polite”
4. I am caught up on both TV show and Comic’s (that includes his backstory)

SHIPS:

1. In my opinion, a lot of what Negan does comes with build up. So any ships will have to be developed. He doesn’t just love anyone. (except for alpha but that’s not gonna last long)
2. This does not apply to SEXUAL relationships , which is mostly what Negan has on this blog. Negan is a very sexual character. Just because he flirts does not mean I ship it. I will never force a ship on you, and I would appreciate the same in return.

STARTERS/THREADS:

1. I normally don’t answer “open” threads I am tagged in because of notes. If you want me to reply to that starter in particular, PLEASE make it a closed starter for me. I just hate when notes get screwed up.
2. If  am replying to you and 1) your character is canonically involved with some group  *Rick’s in particular*  2) we have not discussed an alternate, I will reply post- confrontation between the two groups.
3. Sometimes I will post a “would anyone be interested in ____________” out in the open.  With these post, all you have to do is like. I will probably go off based first come first serve or, honestly, and depending on how much I want it, who is on more often. A big deciding factor, however, is also who I don’t currently have threads with or interact with. This isn’t about you, it’ just has to do with my need for the plot, and I want to be fair as well.

GEN.

1. I will roleplay with both Comic and TV show versions of characters.
2. If my reply is hard to understand, let me know. and I will go back and edit it. It would help if you told me exactly what was hard to understand, but I will do my best to write it better
3. HATE is not tolerated; CRITIQUE needs to be sent off anon.  i have my reasons.
4. I do not follow everyone back. My apologies, but I want to have a relatively clean dashboard.

•        Before any backlash, I want to make this clear.

        My portrayal of Negan is not  meant to soften his aggression or his acts of violence. My opinion of Negan is not meant to make you like him as one of the good guys like Rick or Jesus or anyone else involved in the comics. My portrayal of Negan is most definitely not to make him one of the good guys. That being said, he will NOT always 100% be “evil”. That’s…just not logical, in my opinion. (but if someone were to play their Negan like that, I don’t judge. I just don’t play my Negan like that.)

        I know, show-only fans, this might seem REALLY out of character from what you have seen. And because of this, I am willing to do first interactions (as always) but in Comic canon, and as a part of Negan’s VITAL characterization, I will not change this.

       THE GOOD: Negan will joke around, be sarcastic, be NICE to people, and will not always be trying to murder someone. Negan views this as only  anecessity when striking a deal, or making a point. The line between this and senseless killing, in most eyes, is VERY thin, but he does draw a line nonetheless. He forms friendships and bonds with people (like Addison Carver, Phillip Blake, Shane Walsh, etc / especially in modern verse). This being said, not all relationships are healthy.

       THE BAD: Negan has an anger temperament issue when it comes to things. If you piss him off, he will kill you. If he sees you as weak, he CAN kill you ( see Spencer Monroe). If you anger him, he WILL go off. Out of character, I would HIGHLY recommend that if you are trying to poke the bear, and don’t want your character to be killed, it’s safer to just stop right there. Angering him will not ALWAYS lead to being murdered, but it would be the safest route. Negan can be unpredictable at times. Also keep in mind that his threads before the apocalypse are very different. This is because there is a completely different setting and completely different circumstances.

      What I am trying to say is just because he is nice in threads with a friend, or you don’t see him murder someone 24/7, that does not mean he is a nice person. He has fine lines he has drawn between senseless acts of violence and mandatory violence. While his logic is flawed, it makes PERFECT sense to him. Keep this in mind when interacting, or if you, god forbid, decided to tell me my portrayal is “not angry enough.“  

  I assure you I put a lot of thought into my portrayal to keep him as show and comic accurate as possible, and have been since May 28th of 2015.

Early Apocalyptic Life: In the beginning of the apacolypse, Negan only discovered the outbreak at the hospital mid-chemo treatment for his wife. While distracted by the walkers outside, his wife, Lucille, passed away by his side. She turned before him and it was his first introduction to the gritty world of the Walking Dead. Negan was unable to kill his wife , and left the room only to save a teenaged boy in the lobby of the hospital. With both having lost a member of their family the evening, they left the hospital in search of answers,

Lucille was acquired shortly after a run to Richmond. He had thrown guns off to the side due to the attention they dew in the city, and at a last minute thought the wooden bat became his right hand. Later on he would discover the brutality of the barbed wire when he dressed her for a kill.

Sanctuary: Negan's story picks up in the comics when he is the leader of Sanctuary. Sanctuary is just his name for an abandoned factory in Fairfax, Virginia. The Sanctuary has a perimeter made of chain linked fences and zombies piked , still groaning and threatening. Much like Michonnes zombie pets, it helps disguise the Sanctuary from lingering roamers in the area. He runs Sanctuary with an ego , having his residents bow when he enters. He has a harem of wives in his pent-house like room just near his office.

These wives are there in exchange for an easier life living among the sanctuary, and have the easiest time out of all of the residents when it comes to chores; however, in exchange for the pampered life style they must leave behind whatever lover they had before Negan. If they choose to cheat on Negan, the man in question is burned (see Dwight). It should be noted they DO have a choice in if they wish to be a wife made canon as of issue 149.

Not the Best Leader:Why do people hate Negan? Well the answer is simple. Negan rules by fear, by greed, by killing those who do not pull their wait or do not conform to his own rules. Now, this is not always the case as seen in issue 117 when he literally murders his own man for attempting rape upon Holly (then later killing Holly to spare her of the trauma), nor is it necessarily bad when he murders Spencer for asking Negan to kill Rick so he could take over. It is bad when it comes to how he gets the supplies.

His first mention is after one of his men is sent to kill a member of the Hilltop community because their share was short. Negan demands payment in exchange for keeping the area around communities clear- the payment being HALF of whatever supplies the community holds. This sounds fair, right? Wrong. Negan does not take half of each individual thing, but half of it in total. Meaning he can get away with taking all of the medication in exchange for half of this and something less valuable.

Turning Point:All out war was a revolt against Negan lead by Rick Grimes after giving over more than enough of their supplies to buy time to plan the attacks. In the process of the final battle of All out war, Negan had come to the realization (after some coaxing from Rick) that what he originally thought was for the best of the people was simply him acting powerhungry. He then looked to Rick. "So you're starting to see things my way?" Grimes asks, and Negan nods, saying he does, and it looks to be completely genuine. It is them Rick Grimes slashes his throat , temporarily disabling him. Negan and Rick fight before Negan snaps Rick's leg, and both men end up on the ground. While Negan is bleeding out, Rick asks for Negan to be saved. Negan wakes up later in the infirmary.

Held Prisoner:Negan is sent to live in the Alexandria prison. He and Carl develope some sort of friendship, although Carl still wishes to kill Negan. Rick uholds Negan as a sort of Mercy symbol that they are better than killing the killers. It isn't until issue 148 that Rick asks for Negans help against the Whisperers, and thus the beginning of a closetted partnership.
