THE FIGHT MEME

THE (october) FIGHT MEME

What else needs to be said? Release your inner warrior and partake in some epic (or hilariously bad) battles! Do you use a sword? Are you a martial arts master? Are you a wizard? Can you even fight?

My words never measured up

Say I love you without saying I love you

R U L E S:

1. Tag your character info/prefs/etc.
2. Top levels can show how their character says I love you without saying it.
3. OR others tagging in will. State your preference!
4. Thread it out.

Season of the Witch

Season of the Witch

The concept of the Witch represents many things. Witches may be women, outcast, or other, and their power has been feared because it threatens the tidiness of the status quo. From Medea to Elphaba, the witch has been hated, feared, and tormented, but sometimes she has ruled triumphant.

Halloween 2nd 🎃

🔪THE FEAR MEME 🩸

There are two kinds of fears, rational and irrational.
Being afraid of realtors is an irrational fear.

— Lemony Snicket, A Series of Unfortunate Events

HOW TO PLAY:

Comment with your character. In the body of your top-level, your character is forced to admit their biggest, darkest fear. Maybe they assumed no one was listening, or perhaps this is the work of a magical truth serum. Either way, it's out in the open now.

Other characters can offer comfort, judgement, or probing psychological questions to delve into the root of this. Maybe you can work to face these fears together!

An especially evil character might look for ways to exploit this newfound information... but you wouldn't do that, would you?

Anything involving images, especially spooky images, should be linked and tagged.

more telling than a horoscope

WHAT THAT SAYS ABOUT YOU...

what we've got here is a lil' bit of a switcherooney!

RULES
- comment with your character n' all, but in the subject line, you must make an assumption about the kind of person who'd be into your character.
- easy peasy yet harder than you'd think!
- reply to others. have a giggle or two. or three, even.

Beautiful Dreamer

ＳＬＥＥＰＷＩＴＨＭＥ
not that way

You know these nights. Unfortunately, you and they are on intimate speaking terms. And it looks like another one tugs on your heavy eyelids tonight. Despite your exhaustion, no sleep comes. Hours before dawn stretch on until all that remains is to face your racing mind.

But at least you’re not alone with the darkness.

Maybe there’s rest to be had at your thread companion’s side. The presence of another human(oid) could be the key to slumber! First, though, you’ll have to ask.

May you sleep with them?

HOW TO PLAY
① top-level with prefs, the like.
② anyone who comments is going to ask to sleep with your character (nothing sexual).
③ catch some Zs.

Type to right

i have a type: the meme

How to play:

Post with your character.
Describe their preferences for a romantic partner or just a person they wanna bang/smooch in a generalized way.
This is shown to EVERYBODY.
Reply to those comments indulging, teasing, mocking, being scandalized or so on.
Or you can just go the lazy route, like certain songs.

Heat me

THE BODY HEAT MEME

Post with your character! They're now stuck in a very cold place of your choice. It can be anything, such as a freezing chamber, a cavern or a small cabin in the midst of a blizzard. The choice is up to you.

Comment around! Now your character has some company in this bone-chilling environment. The two of them share two things in common: clothes completely unfitting for this weather (be they summer clothes or even lingerie) and a blanket.

A blanket? Yes, just one warm blanket and no other ways to escape the cold. The two of them will have to share it in order to stay alive in this weather. Don't worry, you're sure to find a common language in this terrible situation!

So, uh, have fun, I suppose. Try to not freeze to death!

Protip: friction and body heat are both excellent ways to fend off cold.

(kink)shame your muse(s)!

It's simple, really. Think of the age-old practice of dog shaming, but hornier, and with better results.

HOW TO PLAY

Post your character with a 'shameful' kink as the subject.
- Shame here is subjective. We don't really care what the kink is so long as they're being outed for it.
- But God bless them if they have a humiliation kink...
Those who respond can bully, shame, humiliate, make things worse... or they might offer to indulge?

WHAT DID YOU EAT YESTERDAY? a show and tell meme

Tell us everything you ate yesterday.

Respond to others in person, through text, etc.

Tasty? Healthy? Cooked or readymade? Describe your meal in exceptional detail.

If anyone's hungry - offer them some restaurant-style grub!

kissing booth

KISSING BOOTH MEME

Whether you're doing it for charity, for your own funds, because you lost a bet, or because you just want to, you've set up a kissing booth. Set your prices, put out your open sign, and pucker up!

No blank toplevels! Describe your character's setup and how they're handling the situation. The main selling point of this meme is the booth, after all. Maybe it's a handshake booth or whatever. A hair petting booth. You get the point.

I wake up to this?

WOKE UP MARRIED

You wake up somewhere...strange. You don't remember the previous night. In fact, you may not recognize what's going on at all.

Also, you're sharing the bed with someone else. You may not recognize them. You probably don't. They may not be your preferred gender or species. It doesn't matter, because you have matching rings on your fingers - or whatever you have that approximates a finger - that can mean only one thing.

You got married!
How to Play:
Make a top-level with character and canon, preferences, all that jazz.
Tag others.
You're now married. Congrats? Or here's a map to the courthouse, if you wanna get that annulled. Expect you'll have to untangle yourself from your spouse and figure out what the hell just happened.

Mutual Healing

Mutual Healing Meme

Healing doesn't come quickly, whether the need comes from physical or mental wounds. But you're trying regain your strength - and yourself. People, as a general rule, are kind, or at least not outright inflammatory to you, it seems. Still, you just can't connect with them. No matter how nice, how caring, they don't understand. They've never experienced anything like what you've gone through, or they're not like you in a way that lets them see what you still go through; they have no frame of reference. Sure, they have sympathy, but it's not the same. So there's no real connection, despite any friendliness. It's so easy, then, to feel detached... ...until you meet them, in this place of both death and healing. They may not have been through the exact same struggles, they may not be exactly the same as you, but they know what darkness is light. How they handle this fact may be better or worse than how you do, yet you can see yourself in their actions. And for once? There's connection; more than that, too. Slowly, you can feel yourself opening up towards them, and then, falling for them. Is this something your used to? Will you fight your feelings, or will you jump at the opportunity to be with someone who can begin to get you? You may have little choice in the matter, as your instincts may just reach out to be with whatever compatible contact you can get. That's better, in the long run, though. Who else could have wounds like yours?

Essentially, it's what it says: a "romance," in the loose definition, or "shipping" meme for characters who have been through the wringer or have hangups.
