The Brothel AU Meme

If sex work is the world's oldest profession, then the brothel may be among the world's oldest businesses. The scene could be anywhere: the modern world, a riff on Middle Earth, a futuristic space colony. Wherever you go, there will always be a demand for your services... and whether you're a high-class escort to the elite or the jewel of the slums, it's a living.

How To Play

1. Top level with your preference: sex worker, client, or either
2. Pick your prompt/s and set a scene, or just wing it!
3. Tag around!
Prompts


1. Old Pro
You're a proper professional with an active client base and a reputation for your skills. Can you leverage that experience to your advantage?

2. Newbie
You're new to this profession and still finding your footing. Some clients find that charming, and other workers may take you under their wing.

3. Demonstration
This is a special job: you're putting on a show for an audience, or maybe you're showing a new worker the ropes.

4. Forbidden Love
Sex workers know better than to fall for a client, and clients know better than to fall for a sex worker. Perhaps even more fraught is a relationship between two workers. This time, however... you just can't help yourself.

5. SO Experience
Your job isn't just about the sex. You provide the entire girl/boyfriend experience: doting words, public appearances, accepting gifts. And yet, it's just a job... right?

6. Something Extra
Kink, monsters, transformation, and magic, oh my! There's something a little different about the services you offer.

7. Getaway
You're ready to break away from this life, whether it's on your own or with someone you've grown close to.

8. Wildcard
Anything goes!

 THE ROYAL HAREM AU


The royal harem is a part of certain aristocratic courts and can serve as both a setting and a plot driver for various stories. The combination of sex, forbidden-ness, and exoticism that fictional harems often represent has led to them showing up in numerous stories over the years...

Harems are off-limits to most, which often puts them into Forbidden Fruit territory ... There may be some person who has particular authority over the harem (whether a eunuch, a chief wife/concubine, or a relative of the owner). If the court is deadly and decadent, expect a lot of politics in the harem, with its members competing with each other for power and preference. As in many real harems, getting to be the ruler's favourite (and maybe wife) could be worth a lot, especially if you become mother to a much-desired heir to the throne.

How To Play

1. Top level with your preference: concubine, ruler, or something else!
2. Pick your prompt/s and set a scene, or just wing it!
3. Tag around!

PROMPTS


1. Newcomer
You're new to the harem (or just newly of age) - but are you uncertain?

2. The Favorite
Perhaps you've been here for a long time, or you've quickly caught the ruler's eye. Regardless, everyone knows you're the favorite.

3. Spoils of War
You didn't expect to end up here. You were captured, brought into the harem against your will. What will you do now?

4. Teaching the Arts
As a concubine, you must be an expert of the arts: dance, storytelling, poetry, embroidery... and, of course, sex. Who will teach you?

5. Forbidden Fruit
The harem is off-limits to you, nor are concubines meant to consort with the outside world - but there is someone you just can't resist.

6. Playing Politics
When you share a bed with power, power is within your reach.

7. True Love
It's forbidden to fall in love with a concubine and unwise for a concubine to forget their role, but...

8. Queen Mother
Often, the parent of the current or future monarch enjoys incredible political power, prestige, and importance in the court. Can you twist your role to your advantage?

9. Escape
You can't stand this gilded cage anymore. It's time to leave!

10. Wildcard
Anything goes!

   VIDEOCHAT AND PHONE SEXING

 
 

Because sometimes, sexting just isn't enough. You need Facetime. So whether you're a couple in search of some extra alone time/dealing with a long distance relationship or a professional camgirl or phone sex worker, make a connection.

 FLOWER SHOP AU MEME


Eclipsed on popularity only by the coffee shop AU, the flower shop AU is one of fandom's perennial mainstays. Add in shipping or gen and this slice-of-life trope really blooms!
Learn more about the trope here.
How do I play?

  • Comment with your character, of course! Include preferences and, if desired, a small blurb about what role your character might take. Don't be afraid to bring in adjacent AU types, like coffee shop AUs, modern AUs, or the ever-popular flower shop/tattoo parlor AU.
  • Comment to others.
  • Get ready for a bouquet of threads!

  "WILL YOU MOVE IN WITH ME?"


See the title above for the question. Now, what will be the answer?

HOW TO PLAY

↺ Comment with your character. No blank comments are allowed. Instead, choose your destiny and pick out a dialogue starter you'd like to use. Two ways to interpret the meme:
1. Your character wants to ask their S.O. to move in with them.
2. Their S.O. has just asked them to move in together.

↺ Then the magic happens. Threads burst out from that little line of dialogue and bloom!
↺ Happy house hunting! Or not; maybe you won't even leave a toothbrush at their place, forget moving in.

 MY FANTASY IS...



It's one thing to fantasize about someone, whether it's a specific person or an idealized stand-in. Actually describing your fantasy out loud? That's another beast entirely...

✱ Comment with your character. Don't leave your top-level blank, though.
✱ Because, instead of that ol' blank comment, you're gonna have your character admit to their deepest romantic/sexual fantasy! Anything from pudding wrestling with identical twins to living a happy, domestic life in an ivy-covered English cottage with the girl of your dreams (who bakes artisanal bread made with goats' milk sourced from flower crown-clad baby goats). Just none of that sick handholding shit, you perverts.
✱ THEY'RE ALL GONNA LAUGH AT YOU!
✱ No. I'm being harsh, maybe they'll respect—
✱ —nah, the whole squad will roast you.
✱ But it's almost Valentine's Day, so WHO CARES?

 name orgasm meme
  1. Toplevel with your character (+ prefs, etc.)
  2. Your character has now been cursed to orgasm whenever someone else says their name, no matter how inconvenient that may be for them.
  3. Tag around and give those orgasms.
  4. GO NUTS

   the hurt/comfort shipping meme


In order to avoid long extrapolation, I'll say one thing: I've noticed that people like what I call "h/c shipping kink." Kink may not be the right word - sex need not be involved - but essentially, crappy things happen to our characters in their crapsack worlds in canon all the time. Sometimes, we like to see them happy. Or relatively happier. And less evil and more adjusted, for those of us who play those types. It's all very self-indulgent.

And, as you can tell from my username, I'm going to be compiling memes that have, for some reason, got micromanaged into ridiculous niches when they should all be under one umbrella. This first project is to wrangle up all the "caretaking" themed shipping memes. Basically, one character cares for the other, be it physically, emotionally, or otherwise. There is also shipping.

The end goal is to weed down redundant memes and, maybe, make this an all-purpose post!

HOW TO PLAY

  • You know the protocol.
  • Comment with your characters and preferences. Also, be sure to include whether your character would be the caretaker, the cared for, or if you can play either.
  • Reply to others.

PROMPTS

  1. Physically Hurt: The traditional h/c scenario. Your partner is hurt, and you break out the bandages to patch them up and give them a shoulder to lean on. May also come with the Florence Nightingale effect, where the "patient" falls in love with the "nurse" thanks to their care.
  2. Emotionally Hurt: You can't put bandages on wounded egos and souls, but you can try your best.
  3. Illness: You're with someone who's sick - maybe even with a long-term, chronic, or mortal illness.
  4. Trauma: Like emotional hurt, this is not an easy cure, and it's even deeper. There will also be blowback on the one trying to care for their traumatized loved one.
  5. Mortality: You're struggling with the fact that one partner may die sooner than the other because of lifestyle or species reasons.
  6. The One Left Behind: One side of the ship is the person left at home to wait and worry.
  7. Triumphant Return: They're finally back and in one piece! Celebrate in the way you two deem best.
  8. Changed by Your Love: You're finding yourself a better person now that you're with them.
  9. Pulled from Depression: You saw no reason to live before you met them.
  10. Physical Protector/Bodyguard: It started out as protection. It became more.
  11. Pure/Impure: You two have varying alignments and varying experiences. Does this affect your relationship?
  12. Remember: Or actually, you can't. You've lost everything about your identity, including your past memories. Needless to say, you may cling to the one person who's helping you. You also may not want to remember your old life.
  13. In a Bad Situation: You're in a dangerous scenario - being hunted, prisoners, bruised and beaten and brought to a strange place - and all you have to rely on is each other. You've been thrown into the fire together and you have to survive.
  14. Inexperienced: Whether it be in romance, sex, or the world in general, one part of the pairing is teaching the other part the ropes. This can encompass so-called "innocence kinks" or age differences.
  15. I Thought I Lost You: Their injuries were so substantial that you thought they were done for. Now, you have to deal with your own emotional
  16. Gentle, Loving Smut: AKA sexual healing and all gentle smut memes or memes that focus on emotional attachment.
  17. Bad Sexual Experience: Similar to the above option, but including sexual baggage that one partner must prove does not always apply.
  18. Trust Issues: One of you has a hard time trusting the other. There may be jealousy involved here.
  19. Unexpected Caretaker: You'd think the sweet one would take care of the dour one, but it's the opposite way around. This is the "surly badasses take care of the one they love" option.
  20. Unwillingly Cared For: You don't need to be coddled. They should leave you alone!
  21. Hurt by You: You have to pick up the pieces of what you've done, thanks to an argument or your temper.
  22. Draining: Caring for them is damaging you and your relationship with them.
  23. Mutually Beneficial: There's not one set "caretaker." You both look out for each other.

  AT FIRST SIGHT MEME


Love at First Sight. It's a staple of Fairy Tales, love songs, and the Disney Animated Canon. Two characters meet, and fall deeply, madly, passionately in love with each other immediately. This is one of the most common and oldest story archetypes.

PROMPTS

1. Meet-Cute
chance meeting has brought you together, and the chemistry is instantaneous.

2. Blind Date
You've been set up! Blind dates can be an utter disaster, but maybe you'll get lucky this time.

3. IRL
You've been chatting online for a long time, and now you're finally meeting in person.

4. Your Perfect Match
In this world, an advanced algorithm identifies your ideal mate based on a number of factors. Did the computers get this one right?

5. Arranged Marriage
The first time you meet is also your wedding day.

6. Soulmate
Whatever your trope of choice is, the very moment you lay eyes on this person, you know that you're meant to be. How do you react?

7. Roleplay
This isn't actually your first meeting, but sometimes it's fun to pretend it is... if just to relive (or redo) that magical moment.

8. Missed Connection
You didn't have the courage to approach them before, but you just can't forget about them. Now you're determined to find them again.

9. Subversion
You've got strong feelings at first sight, all right, but it isn't exactly love. You can't explain it, but this person just grinds your gears!

10. Wildcard
Anything goes!

 the ( camshow ) meme


Camming, verb, is when someone is requested to perform certain activities, often sexual, in front of a webcam for clients.

how to play
1. Comment with your character and preferences.

Set the scene with details of what viewers might see when they stumble into your character’s chatroom, or leave it up to the imagination. Is this a one-off thing, a quick way to make ends meet before rent is due, or is this the new 9-to-5?

2. Comment around, explore the selection of cam streams. Did your character accidentally find themselves on this page, or do they have their favorite cammer’s stream schedule memorized?

3. Make special requests and leave tips. Remain anonymous or expose yourself as your cammers number one fan.

MAY/DECEMBER ROMANCE


A May-December romance is any where there is a larger than average age difference between the partners involved. Sometimes this is met with disapproval, sometimes it is arranged, sometimes it is abuse of power, and other times it just happens and it's no one's fault or doing. This meme focuses on those relationships.

- Post with your character, preferences, and note their ages (or an estimate if no canon age is given).
- Please don't forget to note how much of an age gap you're comfortable with!
- Look around, tag. Have fun! Make up a scenario or make use of the prompts below.


beginning

1. confession - you've just confessed your love. How is it received?
2. coerced - they have more power than you and you have no choice but to go along.
3. arranged - this was an arranged union and may not have had anything to do with your choosing at all.
4. secret - it would be forbidden or frowned upon, but you can't resist...

middle

1. difference - does the age difference make things difficult?
2. domesticity - just a day in the life...
3. experience - one of you has more experience than the other, but at least they're eager to teach.
4. argument - you're fighting for one reason or another.

end

1. breakup - things aren't working.
2. discovered - your forbidden secret has been found out and judged.
3. another - one of you has fallen in love with another.
4. happily ever after - against all odds, you've made it work.

4) Random massive shipping ensues.

the tinder meme

Maybe you can't find a date. Maybe you don't want to find a date. Maybe this whole thing was set up by your well-meaning friends, or your prank-playing enemies, or your over-involved mother.

Whatever the reason, you're on a swipe-based dating system. Call it tinder, cuddlr, e-harmony but for shallow assholes... you're on it.

What's the worst that could happen?

   The Court of Night Blooming Flowers

The Night Court is the casual name for the 13 houses of Mont Nuit in the City of Elua
where the Servants of Naamah worship and ply thier trade.
Elua's blessed principle is 'Love as thou wilt' but love can take many forms.
These houses see to each and every shade and color of Elua's principle.
Pay a house fee and take your pick, but remember to leave a patron gift if you have been well pleased by Naamah's gifts.

How it Works

1. Comment with your character/s. Put their name and canon along with preferences in the subject space.
2. Others will tag with their character and the house they have chosen from the list.
3. Your character can either be visiting the house or working as one of Naamah's servants.
4. Play nice! Or naughtily, if you happen to be in Valerian or Mandrake house.

The 13 houses are essentially brothels, although religiously affiliated ones, so sexual situations are to be expected. Also some houses lend themselves to more triggering fare so please be respectful of each other and talk it out with your RP partner if there are problems with a scenario.

If you’re having trouble with a scenario might we suggest:

The Midwinter Masque

On the Longest Night Cereus House hosts the Midwinter Masque, an elite and private function that all the houses attend in grand costume. The guests of the house are those chosen by each house's Dowaynes and of the highest status. Royalty, political leaders, high ranking officials. All of these are likely to attend and on the Longest Night no coin is exchanged. It is a night of revelry and gaiety spurred on by the evening's drink of choice. Joie a clear, potent liquor made from a rare and exquisite white flower served in small crystalline glasses by the youths of the House. And as our own Longest Night approaches we highly suggest taking the opportunity to play with that setting!

If you'd like to play by the rules of the Masque, please make note of it in your post!

The 13 Houses of the Night Court

(After some houses shall be the theme their house dressed in at the Masque in the first book for you to use as inspiration!)

1. Alyssum- The House canon is modesty. Their motto is "with eyes averted", and the servants here are well suited to acting shy, modest, and slightly uncomfortable with their own desires. If you wish your lover to tremble and blush with shame when you reveal their nakedness, this is your destination. (Alyssum's adepts dressed in the veils and robes of Yeshuite priests and priestesses)

2. Balm- The House canon is compassion. Their motto is "rest and be soothed". Those who need healing and soothing through gentle touch and companionship may come here. These adepts are also the most skilled at massage of all the houses.

3. Bryony- The House canon is cupidity and the desire for money, the motto "Wealth Seeks Company". Their house is more of a carnival of wonders, where you may gamble with your desires in a game of will and wits. Be careful what favors you gamble with though, for the adepts who work here are said to rarely lose.

4. Camellia- The House canon is perfection. Those who work here are physically perfect, without flaw, and as such they are considerably more proud of their station. Perhaps haughty and brilliant would best describe the adepts who reside here.

5. Cereus- The House canon is fragility, their motto "all lovliness fades". The youthful and delicate serve here, those who hold their beauty for a fleeting moment. Cereus also has the distinction of being the oldest of all the houses. The adepts here are ones who know the value of living for the present and making each moment count. (Dressed as snow/ice creatures in white and silver)

6. Dahlia- The House canon is dignity and regality. All those who serve in Dahlia house conduct themselves as royalty, with the proper mannerisms, decorum, and attitude. (Gold to rival Cereus' silvery white)

7. Eglantine- The House canon is performance. Those who serve here are skilled in the arts of singing, dancing, and poetry and can perform together or privately for their patrons. (Dressed as Tsingani, arrayed in bright colors as of our gypsies or street performers)

8. Gentian- The House canon is purity of spirit. The adepts here can read visions and dreams, and may reveal things that hold great meaning to those they share their knowledge with. (Seers preceded by incensers)

9. Heliotrope- The House canon is love and devotion. Their motto is "thou and no other". It is said that when one lies with an adept from Heliotrope, they shall make you feel as if you are the only one who has ever touched their hearts.

10. Jasmine- The House canon is sensuality. Their motto is "for pleasure's sake" and the experience is pure hedonism. Adepts are said to be the most exotic of all the houses, and they emphasize this in their dress. (The exotica of faraway lands, some draped in naught but sheer veils)

11. Mandrake- The House canon is sadism and dominance. The motto is "yield all". Adepts are Mandrake are trained to dominate those who come seeking such release, using skills and tools to bestow plain and pleasure. A signale is arranged beforehand that patrons can use should they ever wish to stop their session. (The Court of Tartarus, a deliciously sinister note amidst the gaiety of the others, heavy black robes of velvet or satin and bronze masks at once beautiful and grotesque.)

12. Orchis- The House canon is mirth, it's motto "joy in laughter". Adepts from this house are joyful people who believe in fun above all else. They are quick with a grin and a game, and skilled in making their patrons smile. (A stunning aquatic theme filled with mermaids and fantastic sea beasts)

13. Valerian- The House canon is submission, the motto "I yield". Adepts are trained from childhood to experience pain with all pleasure and pleasure with all pain. They also have a signale they can use if they need to stop. (Somewhat similarly to Jasmine, a theme of a Middle Eastern harem)

  Superhero Relationships Meme


Whether you're a superhero, self-made vigilante, super villain, or Oracle-esque commander, you're going to have some interesting interpersonal relationships. Whether it's between yourself and a civilian or yourself and another Super-- or worse, yourself and the law-- it's going to be a doozy.

FEEL FREE TO ALTER THESE PROMPTS TO YOUR NEEDS.
Relationships don't necessarily have to be romantic to work in this context.

DYNAMICS:

Super (hero? villain?) vs Civilian: Maybe they're your best friend, or maybe they're the object of your affections-- but they're still in danger if your nemesis finds out!

Super vs Super: Things should be a little easier, right? You're superfriends, right!? Do you know each other's identities, or is this friendship/partnership strictly business?

Opposing Sides: Whether you're good versus evil or Vigilante versus the Law, this situation is a bit... stickier. Can your feelings of compassion cross the boundaries or is this a "fuck it, let's hatemance" situation?



RELATIONSHIP IDEAS:

DOMESTIC: Whatever the difficulties are, somehow you and your partner have made things work. Maybe no one bothers your best friend, or you and your love live happily ever after and you come home after the daily grind. Maybe you and your opposing-side partner enjoy working against each other and coming home to share the same bed. What the hell ever. It's your household, homies.

EARLY STAGES: You are just an idiot with a crush. Maybe you're an idiot with a crush on a superhero. Maybe you're a super idiot with a crush on a civilian idiot. Basically, you're gross and embarrassing and belong on a High School Musical TV Show.

FULL SWING: Alright, Clark and Lois-- maybe you're not domestic, but this romance (bromance?) is in full bloom. No longer in your puppy love stages, you're now at least Spider-Man and Gwen Stacy calibre.

RELUCTANT: You tsundere pieces of shit. Whatever. You don't like this whole communication deal-- but you can't let this person you like get in trouble, can you?

PROMPTS:

SAVE THE PRINCESS: You heard me. That kid you've got your eye on went and got themselves in trouble, and you just can't let that fly. Whether it's because they're the love of your life or because you're going to be the one to take them down, you've gotta pull a rescue mission, stat.

BRAIN DRAIN: That episode of every superhero cartoon where the closest person you've got is suddenly brainwashed to be evil? That's your life now. Have fun pulling them back from the brink.

HURT ON THE JOB: Maybe you don't have to pull a rescue, but that person is now in your care. Or maybe it's the super who's in need of a bit of TLC this time...

FAKED A DEATH: Every superhero plotline has one. Someone's gotta fake their death, even to their most important person. Now you have the chance to reveal you're alive-- but at what cost?

EVERY TIME?: Not a single date, hangout, or playtime goes undisturbed. Your favourite super is a tardy son of a bitch, and you're tired of plans being cancelled.

TEAM PLAYER: This person? You've got it bad for them. You've got it so bad-- but you can't tell them that. You've gotta keep it under wraps, because you're both playing for the same Super Team, and you can't upset the balance.

ONE TRUE NEMESIS: So, what if you never knew the identity of that rival of yours? Aaand what if one day you found out that rival... was actually the "civilian" you were close to? Definitely not a conversation for the thanksgiving table.

the "first relationship" meme

  • As a young person, you haven't had many opportunities yet. But these few years will be full of new experiences - including this, your first relationship! Those jitters are normal, you know; you just want this person to like...no, love you. Hopefully, you've had good influences and examples of relationships in your life.
  • Why settle down when you can taste the whole buffet? You've never felt the need to stop your love-em-and-leave-em attitude...until now, that is. You're finally wanting to commit to one person; that, of course, is easier said than done.
  • Love is for fools. You've always had bigger goals: revenge, world domination, or becoming the best their ever was. But something snuck up on you - or rather, someone - and you're feeling more like a fool in love. Somehow, a relationship is harder than your lofty ambitions.
  1. It's your character's first relationship! And things are probably going to be awkward as you try to get comfortable with each other.
  2. Comment with your character and preferences. Mention your comfort level, ie "make outs are okay, smut isn't" etc.

the forbidden love between servant and master meme 

These days, it's uncommon to have a servant. The wealthy have them, of course, but some of them even eschew that to have a sort of pride in being self-sufficient. Rarer still are the personal servants, the ones bound to just one person and taking care of their every need. They make sure their master or mistress is dressed, fed, and all their affairs are in order. They may double as a bodyguard or personal assistant in other functions, as well. This type of servant was much more common back in the day.

But today, you have one. You've always had one. Or may, you are one, loyal to your employer to the core.

Perhaps you're more of a vassal than a servant, then. You serve because of duty and love; you've been raised to know this your duty for your entire life. Your family has been tied to this family for generations.You could have even been summoned by magic, your whole purpose to serve.

And even if you're not a "true" servant in the sense of the word, there's always people who look out for others. You know the person in the group of friends. They seem bound to the hip to that one specific person, usually someone who actually does need the help, and acts as a mother hen to them. Yes, you're that person.

It all sounds simple enough, then. The problem? The relationship between master and servant has been blurred, and the feelings and bonds here have grown more than they should. The servant doesn't just love the master, they love the master. And it's not that much of a stretch to think that the gesture is reciprocated. But this is an ultimate taboo. Power differences, societal expectations, and conflicts of interest mean that there's a whole mess that can be made. If that line hasn't been crossed yet, keep dancing it. Try to back off, if you can. Do not cross the line. Do not become...more.

If more has come, you are in danger. Will it interfere with the ability of the servant to serve? Will they envy all those in higher stations who can get close to their master? And what about the nature of their relationship being exposed? Others will not be as kind, and there could even be punishment ahead should the wrong eyes fall upon the truth. After all, a servant and a master have been so close, in close quarters. There is no knowing what could have happened.

HOW:

- Comment with your character and preferences.
- Mention if you'd like your character to be a servant/vassal or otherwise.
- Tag others.
- Thread out forbidden affairs and one character taking care of the other.

 ways to show affection


When it comes to the way affection is shown, everyone has a different way they go about it. That means that there's a pretty good chance, with regards to couples, you could end up with two people who have two varying approaches towards how they prove they care...sometimes radically varying, which can lead to more than a little confusion or hurt feelings if there's not proper communication. But when both people are on the same page, they can tell each other how they feel with few words.
☄ Comment with your character, info, prefs, and how your character will likely show affection.
☄ Reply to others.
☄ Thread, my dears!

☆ WORDS: Sweet affirmations, pet names, even
☆ CUDDLES: Hugs, nuzzles, the works.

  Companion to Royalty Meme



There's one truth you must know of royalty: though power may lay in their hands, the crown is a cage. Whether you've always been noble, came into this position recently by complete surprise, or a simple person caught in the fray, you're realizing that leaders actually 
lead very little - even down to choosing who they spend their most intimate moments with. From eternal bonds of matrimonies to the distractions provided by courtesans, the people behind the throne make the rules. They cannot risk losing control of their most elevated and strategically placed pawn with a match gone wrong, which could create a domino effect and doom possibly thousands.

So, what part do you play in this game?

  • Lifetime Royal: This is what you've been raised to do.
  • Sudden Royal: You just learned of your position, which has been secret from you your entire life, or you unexpectedly inherited the job.
  • Spouse: You're to be married to nobility.
  • Concubine or Courtesan: For the royal, you're to be a sexual diversion.
  • Unaffiliated: You're either a lower-ranking noble or a peasant, but you're free from all the machinations of the shadowy cabal...for now.
How willing are you?

  • Completely Willing: Either you love the person you know you'll be matched with, or you're excited about the possibilities.
  • Wary: There's no choice in the matter for you, so you may as well approach this situation cautiously.
  • Unwilling: You didn't want to be matched up with someone. At all. Ever.
What path will you follow, once you're set upon it (there is, after all, little choice for the chosen ones)?

  1. Prepared for This: Either you're a royal and have been one since birth, or you knew you'd marry or sexually entertain one.
  2. Make Up for Lost Time: This life wasn't the one you lived until now, but times change. You're important or will be a companion to a very important person, like it or not.
  3. A Sacrificial Token: Somewhere along the line, your people royally pissed off someone in a key position. So, in an attempt to smooth out relations, you've been given away as a gift to the highest power, either as a spouse for a political alliance or as a concubine or courtesan.
  4. Pomp and Circumstance: All proper, this arrangement. You're to be married, as you've been promised to each other by your respective families. Consummation on the wedding night is key. Perhaps it's encouraged that the two of you act as if this is really a love match, to add insult to injury.
  5. Genuine Love: Speaking of love matches, congratulations! You're one of the incredible few who gets to marry for love, so your lovemaking should be all the more enthused.
  6. Only a Plaything: Heavy is the head who wears the crown, so you're expected to take on some side entertainment even if that's not your preference. Or you could be the courtesan...such a pretty, perfumed word for what the role really is...
  7. Volunteered: You wanted this position, either of spouse or concubine. Your reasons are your own.
  8. Cruel: You're powerful. You can do what you want to this person, a mere ant in comparison to you.
  9. Forbidden: Even the most powerful can't have everything they want, such as someone who's promised to or with another; taking them for your own would create strife and destroy alliances, even to the point of tempting war.
  10. Work Your Way Up: There's always a right tool for the job and you find no shame in using your own special tools to better your life.
  11. Give Me an Heir: Whether you're legitimate or a concubine used as a surrogate, you must help in continuing the royal line.
  12. Mutual Benefit: Both of you are comfortable with this arrangement because you're either compatible or it takes the pressure off of you otherwise.
  13. Want to be More: Though you've been relegated to courtesan, you want to be there one and only spouse...no matter if that role is already filled or not.
  14. Growing Affection: It may have started as all puppet strings and power plays, but now, you lo- care for them.
  15. Loved Before: Before you became so important and powerful, before you became the focus of all the world, it seems, they were there with you. They were with you then, and you want them to be with you now. They ground you and they care about you for you.
  16. Because You're Normal: They're outside of all the court's nonsense, and that's appealing to you. It's like a breath of fresh air.

 Enemies to Lovers


Most of us are fortunate enough to not be plagued by "natural enemies" - or even worst, a group that serves as an opposing force. But that doesn't mean that there isn't swaths of society that just do not play well together. Hunters and demons. Predators and prey. Outlaws and lawmen. Vampires and slayers. Montagues and Capulets. The undead and the living. The list goes on. You know, the usual and the unusual alike. It seems like wars will always rage between them. Maybe it's better for these types to just avoid each other, lest there be bloodshed.

What if, though, you - yes, you - were a member of one group and you developed feelings for someone that should be a mortal enemy. Of course, the feelings weren't the expected ones of wanting to gouge eyeballs out; instead, it was love, and a returned one at that. That would be quite the predicament, wouldn't it? But what would it be like? What drew you to them? Would your love be a pure, romantic one, or more of a love/hate? And would you allow that to sway you or repress all those emotions until you burst?

Most importantly, would a happy ending be possible?

HOW TO PLAY

  • Comment with your character and preferences, plus any information because this meme needs at least a little! People are going to want to know who their character should "hate."
  • Tag others.
  • RNG or choose what kind of relationship you're playing from ROUTE and the tone of the eventual ending, which will theoretically color the thread.
  • Play! Play out anything that strikes your fancy. Draw inspiration from the meme or come up with your own ideas.
ROUTE

  • ROMANTIC LOVE: Despite who they are, you care for them. Whether this means you'll ignore outside influence, fight your own demons to be with them, run away with them, or change the system depends on you.
  • LOVE/HATE: You despise them and all the stand for, but you can't keep away.
END

  • HAPPY: No matter how bad life is, it will take a turn for the better.
  • TRAGEDY: It may be good now, but eventually, everything is going to fall apart right in front of you.

the ( one thing i like about you ) meme

You've known this person forever. Wait. Reverse that. Scratch it out. You've never met this man in your life. No matter what the case may be, you've still got one little niggle in that brainpan of yours while they're standing in front of you.

You have to say, out loud, the one thing you find intrinsically, insanely attractive about them. Physically. Mentally. Randomly. After being familiar with them your whole life. After meeting them two seconds ago. You have to bear this burden. What's better (or worse)? They have to do the same in return. The two of you, stuck in this tango, must continue until someone breaks the curse, all secrets are revealed, you go insane, or kiss.

All of those options all at once is also accepted.

the s c a r s meme


Most everyone has some sort of scar. Some are from happy accidents. Some are from events you'd rather not speak about. Sometimes, people can share a moment over scars: Be it friendly, romantic, or even with a complete stranger. These are those moments.

01. NEW: the scar is fairly new--  maybe you still need to do something to make sure it heals properly. maybe you're just worried about the new scar that's appeared on someone you care about.

02. DISCOVERY: you've just had someone find out about your scars, or you've just accidentally learned that the other person has scars. do you say something, or let the moment pass?

03. SHAME: maybe you're ashamed of your scars. maybe you want someone else to know that there's no need to hide their scars around you.

04. SHOW: you're proud of your scars, or at least you don't see a reason to keep them covered-- never have, or not anymore. or maybe someone is showing you their scars for the first time.

05. STORY: it's time to talk about the story behind your scars. or, perhaps, it's time to listen to someone tell you about how they came about their scars.

06. TOUCH: maybe you want someone to touch your scars so you can remind yourself you're still here. maybe you want to touch their scars because you want to show them you don't mind them.

07. ATTRACTION: you've heard that people like someone with scars, so you're flaunting them, or you're the person very attracted to someone with scars. 

08. KISS: letting this person kiss your scars may be a moment of extreme vulnerability, or just something you like. kissing someone else's scars may be just what you need to do to show someone how much you care. 

09. SOULMATE: you live in a world where your soulmate's scars appear on your own skin. what's that like?

   THE HEAD PATTING MEME



You want to show some affection to or calm down your significant other, crush, person who has a crush on you, smaller friend, random cute person, or random cute younger person, but the regular shows of emotion like hugs or kisses just won't do. So reach out, push their hair back, and give them a pat on the head. Which, by the way, can be surprisingly comforting when done the right way, I.E., not awkwardly. Or maybe you're the one getting the head pat. Are you embarrassed? Freaking out because ohmigosh they noticed you? Calmed from your freakout? Enjoying the gesture from your significant other? ...just don't punch them if you don't like it. They're trying.

the gentle lovemaking for everyone meme

This may be the only way you know how to do it. But you could actually never do it this way; this is the first time you aren't ridiculously rough. Or it could be the first time, period. You're scared of hurting them. You're scared of them hurting you. You want to escape from the world falling down around you. You want to celebrate victory. You have to say hello. You need to say goodbye. You have to say "I love you" when you can't find words. You want to teach them that this is okay. You're broken and you need them to fix you.

What you want to do is take your partner - take them slowly, take them lovingly. Who you are, what you've done, and what you're like outside this moment doesn't matter. You want to love them and do so gently, with kisses and gazes and the release that brings you the closest together you've ever been.

You need this.

P R O M P T S

  1. Growing Feelings: You're not in love yet, but the beginnings are there and this intimacy only makes it stronger.

  2. Moment of Weakness: The walls are down, for just a fleeting time, and you're taking solace in each other.

  3. Platonic: You love each other platonically - as friends, teammates, or other allies - yet you show it in an unconventional way.

  4. Actual Love: There's genuine, 100% love and relative devotion here manifested in flesh on flesh.

  5. Manipulation: You simply want them to think that you love them, and what better way than to act all gentle and kind in bed?

  6. To Win Them Over: Love is what they want, so it's what they'll get if it gets you on their good side.

  7. Thirsty for Your Touch: You've wanted them so badly, you can't help but be reverent.

  8. Foreplay: Foreplay is often skimmed over, but it can be better than the main course. Savor it...kiss those parts you usually simply thrust into.

  9. Desperate: The sex is a little rougher than this meme calls for, though it comes from a place of love. You're so desperate for them, so in love, that you cannot control yourself.

  10. Take It Slow: One party isn't so sure about this, so you're being gentle and keeping things easy.

  11. Injured/Ill: You can't be rough today. Doctor's orders!

  12. Rescue Sex: You saved them, now let them save you.

  13. Childhood Love Matured: You cared for each other as children; now you'll show your affection in ways children cannot.

  14. Ego Boost You want them to know they're the best, even if they don't feel like it. You have eyes only for them.

  16. Parting: You're leaving - for a long time or a short while - and you two want to spend a last time together.

  17. Return: Finally, you and your lover are back together. Show each other how you missed this.

  18. Making Up: Fighting is usually no fun, but making up afterwards? That is.

  19. Teaching: Your lessons come with love; just because you're more experienced doesn't mean you look down on them.

  20. Gratitude: They really appreciate what you've done for them. Really, really

  21. Not Like Them: One of you has had bad experiences in the past, and the other wants to show them that they're not at all like the rest.

  22. Old Couple: You've been together for a long time and you know what you like.

  23. First Time: In contrast, this is your first time together (or first time, full stop period the end), so you're trying to figure things out.

  24. After Confession: The confession of feelings can give a whole new rush to being together.

  25. You Mean So Much to Me: Words can't describe how you feel about them. Maybe actions can?

  26. Rose Petals and Al Green: Because some people do like that kind of stuff, you know.

  The Changed by Love You Meme


"Finding someone without life's scars is a luxury that shouldn't be granted to anyone, love the scars and do everything possible to not create new ones, but if you do...that’s okay, broken paintings are also bought in galleries."

We want to believe that we're more than just specks of insignificant dust in this universe, and it's a hope we nurture from our beginnings of consciousness. However, sometimes it doesn't seem that way - everything we try can fall flat. But two heads are better than one, they say, and the bonds between people are what can make us more than we are. The right relationship - the right emotions, feelings, love - can bring you up from the darkness.

"Evil" characters being healed by those who are "good" are "pure" has always been a literary guilty pleasure, much to the chagrin of many. Still, that has its appeal, and you can explore that in this meme. There are other ways a relationship can change someone, though. Someone uninterested in love can blossom for the right person, an introvert become more outgoing, an impulsive person learning to become patient. Yet caring for someone or being attracted to them won't always change you for the better. You could be corrupted or worsened by a force that should be edifying you. Your feelings don't have to be returned, either, so one party may come out worse for the wear. Whatever the case may be, characters here are about to see their worlds changed by another.

How to Play:

( reply with your characters and preferences. if you'd like, you can include a sentence or even a few words about your character. you can also indicate if you'd like your character to be the one changed or the one doing the changing. )
( comment to others. )

Changed:

1. For the Better. ( evil being purified by good, to whatever degree possible. )
1. For the Worse. ( good corrupted by evil. )
3. More Kind. ( warmth. )
4. More Open. ( whether that means more willing to share or more open-minded. )
5. More Outgoing.
6. More Confident.
7. More Patient.
8. More Grateful.
9. More Angry.
10. More Sexual. ( more sexually active, experienced, or interested in sex. )
11. More Respectful.
12. Settling Down. ( taming the playboy. )

THE FALL FESTIVAL MEME

It's fall! The air is growing crisp, the leaves are turning, and the warming smell of pumpkin spice tingles at your nose. Grab your lattes and don your light jackets, it's time to enjoy the season!



1. Pumpkin Patch
You're looking for that perfect pumpkin for your needs - the best jack-o-lantern, the prettiest centerpiece, the finest pie. Don't let anyone take it before you can!

2. Hayride
Who doesn't love a bumpy horse-drawn carriage ride on a prickly stack of animal feed? Hope you're not allergic!

3. Corn Maze
Getting hopelessly lost is fun, right?! At least you won't go hungry...

4. Haunted House
Don't be fooled by the shrieking, you're not afraid of no ghost! Or are you the one doing the spooking?

5. Apple Picking
How much apple pie, cider, donuts, and fruit can you consume before you burst?! Or is outsourced farm labor just not your thing?

6. Harvest
Whether you're a sworn city-slicker, country stock, or you make your home in an old-timey village, there's sure to be a harvest festival near you.

7. Oktoberfest
There is no better celebration of culture than getting smashed and eating soft pretzels.

10. Wildcard
Anything goes!

 DIRTY NAMES
 

They know exactly what they're doing. Turning you on like that. Teasing you. A hand here; breath on you neck, there, and there. Rev that engine. But you can't let their "good" deeds go unpunished, can you? Turn the tables on them: whisper that name, the one you've reserved for them alone.

Baby. Sweetie. Daddy. Brat. Darlin'. Princess/queen/king. If you want to dirty that cute little tongue of yours, you can slip in the whores. The sluts. What better complements those looks that sear into you and hands that can land anywhere? Your vocabulary is only limited by your...imagination.

Possibly your libido, too.

HOW TO PLAY

- Do the top level thing, but do not blank out. Instead, leave a filthy name your character would call their lover when they're doin' the do. As you do.
- Others will answer to that? If it's sexy, at least. Otherwise, it's just awkward.
- Don't be awkward.
- If you want to be, however, you can!
- ???
- Profit.

  THE STRIPTEASE MEME


Whether you're with a shy, innocent flower who's hesitant to show off their body, someone who wants to get you all fired up because they're contrary, or a sexpot with no qualms, you're about to get a show when they take their clothes off. Or maybe you just walked in on someone undressing. Whatever works. Play your cards right, and you may get to touch instead of just look.

  • Comment with your character, preference, and whether they're the one taking their clothes off or the one watching! Be sure to include as much information as you'd like and that makes you easier to tag - ie, is your character experienced in this? Are they intending to give a show? So on and so forth.

   leave a mark



On purpose. By accident. In the heat of the moment. Whatever the parameters, you're going to leave a mark on your partner — your own little flag in the rubble that's their body. One small step for mankind...

Is it at least in some place that they can cover up? Oh. Ooooh. If it's not, if it's all out in the open, that could be a thing for you. The conspicuousness works; it's key. Location, location.

Good for you!

terms
of
endearment
 
Pookie. Honey bear. That Bastard. Sun and stars, moon of my life. Prince of Darkness.

Pet names. Love 'em. Hate 'em. Whether they send you swooning or get your eyeballs rolling, they own at least a little charm. Sometimes, with the right combo of words, we just can’t get enough!

Does your character have an alias for that special someone in their life? Don’t worry, you can tell us. And the character that affectionate nickname belongs to.

 For the top level folks: DO NOT LEAVE YOUR COMMENT BLANK. After you set up your name/canon/preference header, go into the comment and fill us in on what pet name would be your character's go-to. Gun to their head, if that's the necessary provision.

 For the reply folks: their character just called your character...that. You read it. That. Go nuts.

   the hooker au meme.

CONTENT WARNING for prostitutioncrimedub- to non-conkink.

INSTRUCTIONS:

1 - Post a comment with your character's name and canon. BE SURE TO INCLUDE YOUR PREFERENCES, including which role you'd like, what in particular you're interested in playing, etc.
2 - Comment around to others and play threads!
3 - Use Random.Org if you get stuck for ideas.

WHERE: Where do you look for business?

1 - STREET - You wait on the sidewalk, wink at the passing cars, dress yourself in revealing clothing and garish makeup. You don't cost much. Maybe you're desperate, or in debt, or your life fell apart. Maybe you're independent; maybe you have a pimp, and a quota to fill. Either way, you have to work hard for your living.

2 - HOUSE OF PLEASURE - It's a good life, isn't it? You have a place to stay, a roof over your head. You don't even have to leave the House -- or perhaps you're not allowed to. You could have a good madame, or a harsh one; maybe you can pick your clientele, even. If you cater to a certain odd set of tastes, though, you might not have a choice at all.

3 - TEMPLE - It is an act of worship, for you. Of piety. Sex is about fertility, the giving and receiving of energy, a sacred act. When you bed another, it is for the benefit of you both.

4 - IN PRIVATE - You're a call girl. An escort. You go to parties; you know how to speak the language of the rich and famous. You dress well, act confident, and know how to get what you want. You're a valuable companion, and they better be prepared to pay dearly for you, tonight.

5 - OTHER - For anything else you can think of!

WHY: Why are you hiring this particular person?

1 - CURIOSITY. Maybe you're bored, or you have a little extra money to spend, and you're up for a little experimentation.

2 - SECRETS. You need discretion; no one can know that you're cheating on your wife. Money is a good way to keep the both of you quiet.

3 - NEED. There's a desire you have that you can't satisfy any other way. Maybe it's your sexual orientation that you don't want anyone to know. Maybe it's something darker.

4 - THEY MADE ME DO IT. Some well-meaning friends, or business partners, have hired you a hooker for the evening. Better make the most of it.

5 - JUST THE SEX. You don't want the hassle of a relationship. You get your needs taken care of, and that's it.

6 - OTHER. For anything else you can think of!

those three words.


Maybe it's the first time or a routine occurrence. A heartfelt proclamation under the moonlight, or a mumbled admission under your breath. The beginning of something beautiful, or the last chance to say it before the very end. Spoken willingly, or compelled in some way. Romantic or not. There are probably a million and one ways to say it, but the point of this meme is one simple phrase:
"I love you."

tl;dr: Have your character tell someone they love them! Post a top-level comment with your character, ideally including your preferences and maybe a little blurb about them for the canonblind. Tag around. Good times had by all, hopefully.

   skinny dipping




When the level on that thermometer climbs up, up, and away, there's only one thing to do — and that's hit the water, of course! Let the cool blue waves lap over your skin. Dive straight into the depths and escape the sun's rays.


Didn't bring a swimsuit, did you? No room in your bag or, maybe, this was a split-second decision to take the plunge? Good news awaits. You don't need a swimsuit where you're going.

Because you're sneaking off to a secret spot, aren't you? ...on the off chance you aren't, the risk could be half the fun.

  • Top level as per usual.
  • Thread as per usual.
  • Respect people's prefs! While this meme could swerve down the ship/smut path if you take it by standard issue, gen is equally welcome!

CARRY YOU
a shipping meme


It's a no-brainer that physical closeness brings a certain sense of intimacy along with it. Even more than with holding hands or even embracing, though, actually carrying someone is a level above simple closeness. You're providing support - quite literally!

There's many reasons why you might have to hold a person in your arms or on your back like that: they're injured, you're faster and you both have to get away, you're trying to pull a particular spunky individual away from danger, you're teasing them, or you're just having fun. Whatever the reason may be now, you're carrying your significant other, your crush, or somebody you have some kind of feelings for or attraction to.


HOW TO PLAY

  • Comment. Preferences. Etc.
  • Reply to others. RNG.
  • Play out cute, awkward moments, romantic or steamy scenes, or just UST.
PROMPTS

  1. Princess Carry: Aka bride carrying. Keep them safe in your arms, right by your chest.
  2. Piggy Back: You don't have to be a child to enjoy being carried on someone's back.
  3. Delicate: In order to make them feel delicate or hammer in their fragility, you'll scoop them up.
  4. Swoon: You can't help but notice how strong or handsome/beautiful they are when you're this close to them.
  5. Injured: Put that sprained ankle on the mend, whether you want to or not.
  6. Transportation: Let them be your beast of burden.
  7. Tired: They're too tuckered out to walk. Good thing they look so cute and peaceful.
  8. Escape: We have to get out of this place because the ceiling is falling! Or something.
  9. Fun: You're having a good laugh from riding around on them, or you're playing a game like chicken.
  10. Practicality: Work together to get something high up!
  11. Teasing: Ahahahaha, it's funny to see how they freak out when you pick them up. This is totally a legitimate pastime!
  12. For Your Own Good: Come on, you. You're coming with them before you start even more of a brouhaha.
  13. Unexpected: The smaller part of the couple has decided to pluck their larger partner off the ground.
  14. Sexy: Take it to the bedroom...and take them there, too, with a sultry
  15. Particularly Romantic: Maybe it's after a date, after a wedding, or after a near death experience in battle, but this moment of carrying is particularly heartwarming. This is what they mean by "sweeping them off their feet!"
  16. Dragging: ...you're not good at this.

PRAISE KINK DIALOGUE meme

 

A meme where you get to dole out the sweetest affirmation when you're getting down and dirty? Must be all about that praise kink!

how to play
- comment with your character, prefs, what role they'd play (praise-giver/praised), etc. if your character's the type to throw out the positive reinforcement, your one-line starter can go in the top level! (ie, "good pet," you know how it do)
- on the other end of the spectrum, should your big dumb mess want to soak up all that affection, people commenting to you will bring the line of dialogue.
- thread from there. that's it. easy, huh?

 GROW OLD WITH MEME


The ultimate goal of any loving, committed relationship: to grow old with your best friend. But how often do we get the opportunity to write out the golden years of our favorite couples and partnerships? Now is your chance! Whether you start at the beginning of your story or the end, or even somewhere in between, "grow old with me" is the theme.

PROMPTS


1. The Proposal
Whether or not a diamond ring and a marriage is involved, is there anything sweeter than a proposal to spend the rest of your lives together?

2. The Golden Years
After decades of being together, how are you faring? Do you bicker like cats and dogs (but you really do care), or do you still walk hand-in-hand, just as lovesick as you began? What great adventures are you still enjoying together later in your lives?

3. The Parting
Illness and death is just a part of aging, and we all eventually need to say goodbye. Did you make it to the very end, or were you forced to part long before then?

4. Best Friends Forever
Friends can stay together for the rest of their lives, too.

5. Wildcard
Anything goes!
