Ask Blog

An Ask Blog is an informal term for a type of art blog generally hosted on Tumblr where users submit questions to fictional characters, which are responded to either with original art representing the characters' response and/or text roleplay responses. The goal is to simulate that readers are asking the character themselves these questions.
The term is informal, and there is no standardized set of features or behaviors for ask blogs. Some focus on a single character, while others may feature multiple, and some may feature running storylines, akin to webcomics, while others may choose not to focus on continuity, and others still may be used for role-playing purposes.
Many of them gain popularity based on quality of writing, art, or merely the interaction between the characters and readers. One of the more famous ask blogs is Ask Marsh and Broflovski.
