If You Had A Troll Quirk, What Would It Be?

Post by arachnidsGrip » Wed Nov 27, 2019 12:31 am

See above.

I'd probably replace "ib" with "18". Example: Respons18ility. I have yet to come up with anything aside from that though. Maybe ocean puns like Feferi?

When my friends and I were big into pesterchum back in my early high school days, I devised a "quirk" so deceptively simple, but so deviously evil, that several of my friends refused to talk to me over pesterchum

The quirk was to change my text colour to the colour of whoever I was talking to. This trick ended friendships. It made it impossible to tell who was saying what or who's turn it was to speak without an annoying amount of effort, and, for whatever reason, the pesterchum coding let me do this to several people at once as long as I paid attention to sending a message, changing colour, sending another message, changing colour, and so on

Something akin to Galekh's quirk of footnotes, except probably more often and less cohesive knowing me.

Make the quirk easy to read | write, keep it @ the level where you can always be understood & give off an appropriate impression.

(Vowels are tripled, consonants are doubled, "k" and "C" replace each other, "I" replaces "y", camel caps, all punctuation at the end of each sentence, "an" is always used instead of the article "a", and words shorter that 3 letters are written backwards. Perhaps the ultimate cursed quirk?)

I had problems where using this quirk was more natural than the necessarily correct punctuation (actually sometimes I'll still slip into it without realizing). I don't know how to explain it... lowercase "i"s just don't belong at the beginning of words. Never had problems with "j" though.

I'd parenthisize every number after writing it, ie: twenty two (22).

Its simple, but enough for me.

Thinking about it, if I was a more original Troll, I'd likely have a quirk that rambled about inane shit with plenty of idioms and slang and all of that, but interspersed with more professional, complex writing.

:3 Then, if I so desired, I'd add my most commonly used emoticon as the header and the footer, making sure shit is easy to read, but ultimately offputting and frankly, more than a little annoying :3. :3 Off-putting* :3.

:3 So, to sumerise, occasional spelling errors, An obnoxious feline apparatus, capitalization in places where it clearly should not Be, drawn out professional sentences, with a laid back "I don't give a fuck" attitude about the wHole deal :3. :3 summarize* :3
