Attraction

MOST ATTRACTIVE FEATURE

✱ Comment with your character. Feel free to include a link to a picture of them at their best/most flattering/cutest/beautiful/handsome/most appealing/etc.
✱ Other characters are ~~forced to~~ ~~gently compelled~~ to admit the one part of yours they find the most attractive. Hair? Eyes? Muscles? That height? That mole? That ass...umption that they're a great person?
✱ Your character now has to flip all the scripts and fess up to others.
✱ Rinse. Repeat. Regret.
✱ Of course, if they're boring, some people might be drawn to a personality trait over a physical one.
✱ But that cute smile, tho. Lemme swoon.

this is my number one guy!

The Introductions Meme

1 ) Post your character to the meme. They're at some kind of social gathering now!

2 ) Reply to someone your character has a relationship with, be it canon or from other memes, with how they would introduce them to someone else.

then

Reply to someone your character doesn't have a relationship with, using one of those introductions from others as a springboard.

3 ) You may also choose to reply to the introductions of your own character, now with the knowledge of how they would be introduced! This is a meme, not a cop.

I want Paul. I want my brother.

The (possibly AU) Sibling Incest Meme

Incest is, despite its taboo nature in most societies, actually a pretty popular convention in both romantic fiction and works of a more erotic bent, in everything from period or fantasy pieces to series taking place in places like modern day Japan. Still, the most common configuration in these fictions are the pairing of siblings. Perhaps this is because of the usual lack of age difference and power dynamic that exists in child/adult relative pairings, though this is not always the case. Because of this, a sexual or romantic relationship between siblings can almost seem, well, romantic in the right light. Of course, more often than not, there's a dark side under the veneer of forbidden love.

This meme is for those who would like to play out that, either the darkness or the light - or both.

HOW TO PLAY

-Comment with your character and preferences. Be sure to mention any hard lines you have.
-Comment around to others. PLEASE NOTE THAT IN ORDER TO FACILITATE CROSS-CANON TAGGING, THIS MEME WILL BE CONSIDERED AN AU FAIR GAME ZONE. Feel free to comment in with characters who do not canonically have siblings or comment to people from other fandoms.
-Be respectful of others.

( TRIGGER WARNING )

What? I am a lot.

SELL ME YOUR CHARACTER

The Question: Why should anyone want to date/ship with/be in a relationship/fall in love with yours?
The Challenge: Answer that question under the character limit for a Dreamwidth comment subject header.

✱ Comment with your character. In the body of the comment, feel free to either link a picture of your character or leave it blank.
✱ THE CATCH IS THIS! Don't put the usual mumbo jumbo in the subject. Instead, sell us on your character by summing them up in an appealing (or funny, or dumb) way! IE, Bruce Wayne could be "rich Daddy with a love for costumes." Paul Atreides ~~or Luke Skywalker~~ could be "cute space messiah." YOU GET THE PICTURE.
✱ Everyone, including your character, can see the tagline.
✱ Any takers?

Bodyguard Meme

the bodyguard meme

You're a pop star, or a royal, or maybe even the last of your kind who will bring about the Earth's redemption. Whatever the case may be, you're in a position that may be a bit dicey if you attract the wrong kind of attention.

And you're a bodyguard, a soldier, a knight - a protector. Somehow, you've been roped into protecting this person. You'll be rewarded, of course. The work may be cut out for you, but just do your job, keep your head down, and it'll go smooth.

Except for when the two of you break the bounds of professionalism and feelings begin to flourish. Being in such close quarters may get you to see the other in a different light, and saving someone's life just may be the ultimate form of intimacy.

Could this be the real danger? To feel so strongly for the one you've sworn to protect...are you compromised?

How to Play

1. Comment with your character and preferences, being sure to put if you want to play the guard, the guarded, or either. Also, you may want to put if you prefer fluffy, angsty, or smutty interaction - or have no preference.
2. Comment to others.
3. There are no prompts, because there are so many potential options there could be a hundred. Feel free to play anything: the beginnings of the relationship, just meeting, getting used to each other/not getting along at first, the obligatory first time, a threat on the protected's life and how their protector responds, how the feelings between the two has changed the protection, etc. Your only limit is you.

TOUCH MEME

From birth, human beings are wired to touch and to be touched. Whether it's a warm embrace or a reassuring hand on the shoulder, touch is an integral part of human interaction and creating bonds. Not all forms of touch are created equal however. Some are gentle and uplifting while others can be discouraging or even harmful, so one should always be mindful of the unspoken messages they intend to convey to those around them.

Comment with your character and preferences.
Others reply with one or multiple prompts.

Comment with your character, preferences, and the like. You'll probably want to include just what you're comfortable with, because this meme will have some out-there choices.

Also, feel free to assume any amount of aphrodisiacs as needed. There's a proper option for that, but you can combine it with any others for ease of play.

Speaking of, you'll most likely want to mention if you're cool with assumed CR and AUs.

WITH THAT SAID. Reply to others. RNG. You know the drill.

❥ ANSWER: Respond to the messages. React appropriately
❥ ENJOY: have fun.

Economical vocabs

ONE-WORD DESCRIPTORS

• top levels go here.

• after you've done the do, other characters comment in with one word their character thinks describes yours. is it a first impression? a deep insight into their moral fiber? something about how choice dat butt is?

• go from there.

Are you even a comic book/superhero movie if you don't have a teenage au?

ᴛᴇᴇɴᴀɢᴇ ʀᴏᴍᴀɴᴄᴇ (ＡＵ) ᴍᴇᴍᴇ

There's nothing quite like your first crush developed during those formative teenage year...except, of course, when you start a tentative, testing relationship based on those feelings. Or, equally as exhilarating, dancing around the subject and ignoring all that adolescent angst and tension!

You're in for some fun, so whether you're in the right age demographic, you never really got to fit and now you've found yourself fitting the bill, or you've been thrown back into the past, make a teenage dream come true!

RULES

Comment with your character, info, and all the good stuff. If your character's a teen, you're golden. If you need to AU it, go ahead. Age down - either completely, including mental age/canonpoint, or Seventeen Again style.
Reply to others.
Be adorable.

PROMPTS

CRUSH: They're so purty UGH GIRLS ARE WEIRD. This can be requited or not.
RELATIONSHIP: It's time to sneak out and hold hands after somebody threw rocks at a window, probably.
AVOIDING THAT TENSION: On occasion, teenagers cna and will dodge a subject or act as childish as they really are, too. Pull those pigtails!

Wake up, dead man

Find Them Dying

you shoulda seen the other guy...

🩸 comment with your character. they're on the brink of death and have been unceremoniously dumped somewhere. yeah, that's all their blood...
🩹 anyone who comments is the lucky good samaritan who discovers them.
🩸 at least you'd better pray they're filled with the milk of human kindness. they could heal you, but there's always the alternative.
🩹 what if they're an angel of death who'll finish the job?

arranged marriage au

Arranged Marriage

Marriage for love is a such a modern concept. In the past, marriage was
recognised as a social contract. Unions were entered into for many
reasons: to obtain property, to unite families, to carry on a bloodline,
et cetera. Whatever the reason, congratulations, you're getting married!

How to Play:
Post with your character | fandom | and any preferences.
Be sure to mention any scenarios you are interested or not interested in playing.
Tag Others.
Be awesome to each other.
Have fun!

POSSIBLE REASONS:
STATION: You come from a royal, noble, or otherwise distinguished family who has chosen a suitable spouse for you.
FEUD: You are being married to put an end to the bitter enmity between your two families.
ECONOMICS: Your economic state and/or your station will improve through the union, though one of you may be marrying down.
EMPIRE: You and your spouse are merging your businesses and/or property to create something more influential or profitable.
TRIBUTE: You have been offered as a gift or appeasement, alternately you're the spoils of war.
BLOODLINE: Carrying on your distinguished family name has fallen to you and the equally well-bred spouse of your family's selection.
DISAPPROVAL: Your marriage has been arranged to keep you away from the person with whom you truly wish to be.

POSSIBLE SCENARIOS
FIRST MEETING: This is the very first time you're meeting your future spouse.
COURTSHIP: To get to know each other and encourage affection, your family has approved of you going on dates.
ENGAGEMENT PARTY: Be it a huge, formal affair or a small, intimate get together, you're celebrating (or pretending).
WEDDING DAY: The big day!
RECEPTION: The big party!
WEDDING NIGHT: Every meme needs a smut prompt, right?
HONEYMOON: Where will you go with your new spouse and what will you do there?
