I'm gonna assume you mean @masquenoire, but correct me if I'm wrong!

So, way back when, before I made a blog, before I even was sure I wanted to make a blog, I was checking out some blogs that interacted with a friend's muse. And all the sudden I saw this here masquenoire blog in my recommends, and I was like "oh heck yea, I love Black Mask, I didn't think anyone played him! :o".

And even though the blog was a little new at the time, I LOVED IT. Chip, your writing is utterly fantastic. I got a little more confidence and inspiration reading such your prose that I got my little writer bones together and started my own blog. Your style is emotive and clever and sharp, you write these amazing paragraphs of lore that go in depth about all the big and little things that build Roman as a character. Even the small headcanons are given such wonderful attention, it makes everything feel so natural!

And that's not even getting into your actual interaction posts! The way you write through his gaze is fascinating, you always have such a good handle on both his internal and external voice through every emotion and situation, from giving nuance to his anger to even working in his softer moments or displaying his shrewd business skills, you make him feel so rounded. Even quiet moments on his own feel immersive, and it's clear that you put a lot of passion and thought into your writing!

Your portrayal is genuinely one of my favorites, even amongst his canon ones, and I feel so spoiled getting to read all this good writing for free!
