Merchant Muses - Tumblr Posts
Hello, stranger. Would you care to take a look at my wares?
I’m your friendly wandering hot sauce merchant, unlicensed therapist, accidental tumblr stalker, digital mail carrier, doppelgilly’s henchman, bane of loan sharks and doing my best to remain a neutral party in this insanity.
As I write it out I’m starting to realize that’s a bit of a mouthful. If you need something easier to call me, Merchant will do just fine, as would any other shortening of my original title.
I use whatever referrals (pronouns) you do, as I am not a character of my own but a mirror into others’. Just someone to bounce thoughts, ideas and unused energy off of.
It’s wonderful to meet you, mate. If you need anything, from a diverse hot sauce supply to a passed-on message or a good conversation, I’m here.

Currently in the middle of a lore-creation game attached below! The tag for it is #merchants-sanctuary, send an ask if you’d like to play ^^
Not sure how you found your way here, but I’m glad you did! Just call me Merchant - that’s the closest thing to a name you’re gonna get. Nicknames are welcome as long as I can tell you’re referring to me.
I’m not exactly a JRWI roleplay blog, seeing as I don’t have a character to play beyond what I’m given, but I still hope to build myself a neat little list of titles with which to better bother the RP blogs
I was serious about the pronouns, by the by - my gender identity mirrors the people around me, which essentially means I want you to use your own pronouns when you refer to me. If you don’t have any, not to worry! It’s perfectly alright to just pick your favorite set or avoid them altogether. The Merchant doesn’t need a gender when there are Vibes.
I wonder what would happen if I had a meaningful life experience that didn’t involve interacting with people. Where do I even go when I’m offscreen? Where am I now? Nobody knows oOooOooooo
I wonder how my favorite customers are doing.

Hhm. Ah. Okay.
Perhaps I’ll just. Stay over here for now.
Met this lovely little creature in a patch of weeds in my garden this morning. She flew off when the shutter clicked - I think I scared her, poor thing.
I found something unusual growing in my pepper gardens this morning. It looks like clover, but I swear it wasn’t there yesterday and it’s already flowering - is this normal? Should I be worried?
I’ve just realized the portal’s still open, and I was sticking around for no real reason. How embarrassing.
I’ll be off, then. Hopefully this ship and her crew will still be mostly intact when I see her next.
…Hmm. Little close to the garden for comfort there, rabbits.
It’s not so much that I would deny them whatever food they might find there, but the capsaicin could poison them. Hopefully my fences will be enough to keep them out.
how's the weird hybrid clove thingy going?
It’s taller than my mint now, though it’s taken on the appearance of a proper purple clover. I’d almost wonder if I was mistaken about its nature if it hadn’t originally sprouted on the opposite side of the garden.
I don’t think it means any harm, whatever it is. Its roots aren’t strangling my other plants’, and the dirt around it tests perfectly normally.
The clover is attracting an unusually high number of bees. That’s wonderful; perhaps it means to help my garden flourish.
Ah… It’s gone.
I’ll miss it, I think. I wish my clover well wherever it ends up next.
Indeed.
My body is but a #hot sauce temple.
…Weddings.
Well. This is both thematically appropriate and incredibly concerning.
First thing you see after you zoom in is how you die
How you dying 👀
I wonder how DG’s side project of a lighter cloak is going.
