intimate & sexual curiosity meme


They say curiosity killed the cat. Good thing you're not a cat...probably. No offense to any cats out there, literal or metaphorical. But you are curious, though, curious about intimacy and sex, whether it be in general or with this specific person. If it's the former, perhaps you've never had sex before and want to know what it's like, at least once. Perhaps you're interested from a scientific view, and someone's agreed to show you. Maybe you want to test yourself, your control, or any new abilities that may throw a spanner in the works. Or, you know, you could just want sex. If you're curious about this particular person, it may be because of their abilities, their history, or their body - maybe even their species' anatomy, if they're of a different origin than you.

Whatever the case, this is a learning experience, and you're testing the waters. That means, in this meme, there will be a lot of exploration, a good deal of foreplay...and maybe some emotions, too. Take it slow; remember, you want to know every nook and cranny of their body and everything that makes them tick. This means you may not get to the actual sex. There's a chance you may not even want that, depending on who you are and your situation. And that's fine. You're learning things and feelings things, and they say knowledge is the pathway to freedom.

Actually, they say a lot, don't they?

PROMPTS

  1. petplay: All good pets need to be trained. Of course, they naturally want to please master or mistress, so taking to the leash and collar is in their blood. You may want to give them a helping hand, though, and keep those temptations like acting like a human out of their sights.

  2. daddy/baby girl: Or something more gender neutral. Whatever the case, you love taking care of your little one and spoiling them...unless they need punished for being a brat. They may be too young, but you can't help yourself.

  3. medical play: The doctor will see you now.

  4. bondage: Whips and chains excite you. Ropes aren't too bad, either.

  5. religious: Forgive me father, for I have sinned. And now, I'll have to confess it all.

  6. let go: You've got all your shit together in life. In your private life, though, you like to let go and lose yourself - either by being rough and controlling someone else or being controlled.

  7. student/teacher: Young teacher, the subject of school girl fantasies. You know the drill. Somebody's staying after class.

  8. non-con: They say no, but you know they mean yes.

  9. master/servant: Maid or butler uniform optional.

  10. newlyweds: There's nothing like your wedding night.

  11. cheating: Your cheatin' heart may or may not be in the right place.

  12. robbery: Give up all your goods and give up something else, too.

  13. incest: It's all relative.

  14. crossdressing: Girls will be girls and boys will be girls.

  15. police: Ready for a game of good cop, bad cop?

  16. wanton: Oe of you has all the trappings of a slut, with all that ill-repute, and the other has to put them in their "place." Dirty talk, sexy clothing, toys, maybe even glory holes, oh my! The more perverse, the better.

  17. strangers: You'd never do this with someone you just met! Good thing you've really known each other forever.

  18. prostitution: All the naughtiness of an appointment between a prostitute and a John.

  19. nurturing: We know all of you love a mother or father figure.

  20. someone else: Usually, a lover calling out someone else's name is anathema, but now, it's apropos..

Settled Down Shipping Meme


If you were ever given a yearbook superlative, you'd probably never be in the running for "Most Likely to Settle Down," but here you are...and all it took was the right person.

RULES!

❧ Leave a comment with your character's name, fandom, and any preferences you have.
❧ When replying, RNG for a number between 1 and 15. The number corresponds to the scenario that you will play out in whatever way you want to.
❧ Go from there!
THE LIST!

01] baby
Suddenly, there's a new addition to your family! Are you expecting? Adopting? Struggling to find the perfect name for your child? Or maybe you're up at a ridiculous hour in the morning because they're crying like crazy.

02] just married
Congratulations! You and your loved (?) one are about to start a whole new life together! It's time for the honeymoon...

03] house hunting
Are you seeking out an apartment? A dream house? Or just any old place, as long as you're with your other? Make sure to weigh your options very carefully...

04] household chores
It's time to clean/cook/garden/take care of something! Do you work together, or does one of you hide until everything is done?

05] shopping
Whether it's for furniture, groceries, or something in between, shopping is something that everybody must do at some point in time! What varies is if they like it or not.

06] family vacation
WE'RE OFF TO DIDNEY WOOOOOOOOORL or wherever
... well, as long as the kids are happy, right...? You may not be happy (or maybe you are), but it's mainly about ~family bonding~.


07] romantic retreat
It's you and your loved one's anniversary, and you decide it's time to take some time off and take them somewhere nice, where you only have each other.

08] comfort
Is somebody sick in bed? Or perhaps they just had a bad day? Sometimes, a good breakfast in bed or a home-cooked meal can really lift the spirits! Or perhaps you want to try medicine, or laughter, or something else?

09] pet
Suddenly, you have another addition to the family! Is it a puppy? A kitty? A fierce dragon? Whatever it is, make sure to give it a name and to take good care of it!

10] holiday
Happy birthday/New Years/Christmas/Valentine's Day/whatever! It's a very special day that only comes once a year, so make it count!

11] argument
Oh, no, who left the stove on... Or maybe it's about why they were out late last night? Either way, there is a lot of tension today, and one of you may or may not be sleeping on the couch tonight.

12] making up
It's time to make amends for that fight/divorce/whatever you had before! After all, you love each other... right?

13] surprise, surprise
You are feeling rather loving tonight, so you want to remind the other person how much you cherish and appreciate them... if it's by something cute and adorable or hot and sexy is completely up to you.

14] proposal
SHUT UP THIS TOTALLY FITS You've been with your other for what feels like forever, and finally you want to tie the knot with them. Will you go down on one knee before them, or get a little creative?

15] other
I know I'm forgetting like a bajillion and one different things here, so this is the option for that!

Together/Committed

  1. In the Beginning: You've moved in together and are learning the boundaries, both sexual and non, of living with a partner.
  2. Not Mom's House Anymore: You're young and starting out; it's crazy to live by yourself instead of with your family! Luckily, your lover can give you things mother never gave you.
  3. Sweep It Under the Rug: Chores can be boring, but you can make them fun, right? After all, you look so good bent over the table while you're dusting.
  4. Naked Apron: Nothing's better than breakfast in bed. Except when you're served it with your baby wearing nothing but the apron they used to make all that bounty.
  5. Letting It All Hang Out: Benefit of being in your own house? Running around naked. This doesn't have to change when you're living with someone.
  6. There's Someone Else...for Both of Us: Three's a crowd, except when two agreed on it.
  7. Spicing Things Up: Sometimes, constantly seeing someone can rub you the wrong way, and intimacy can get rote and boring. That's why slipping a new kink in every now and again isn't a bad idea, especially if it's something that one of you has really wanted to try.
  8. I'll Take Care of You: Everyone deserves to be pampered, and you're letting your partner soak up the best of your home and the best of you.
  9. Proving Your Love: You want to show your lover that you care for them like no one else. After all, you're living with them, not anyone else!
  10. Becoming Comfortable With You: After a while, they've become like another part of you, one you can show or tell anything to, even about how hard you want them to thrust into you or how you want them to suck your -
  11. Suspicious Minds: Jealousy brought from the outside is making one of you antsy. Can a serious fucking session prove that there's no roaming minds here?
  12. Christening the New Place: You've moved into a new home. Unpacked everything? Good! Now it's time to have sex on every surface so it's all totally yours.
  13. Welcome Home: One half of the household has been away - on a trip, at war, at an anime convention, whatever. Now, it's up to the other half to make their welcome wagon the best there ever was.
  14. Cultural Differences: Different cultures have different ideas about home, about coupling, and about the stuff that goes on between the sheets. Can you work it out?
  15. Home-Cooked Meal: Believe it or not, there are even better uses for apple pie than eating it.
  16. I'm Not Used to This: This is your first time in a "committed" relationship, having a home, or both. How are you adjusting? Is it still hard to be touched, be loved, or use a proper bed?
  17. Here Out of Convenience: It's not like you really like them or anything! This is only a roof over your head and a warm hole to fuck.
  18. You're Just Being Used: You're getting a benefit from your relationship that isn't purely sexual, like wealth, power, or control. But in order to keep things in line, you have to keep your partner happy and sexually fufilled.
  19. Keeping You Here: You can't let them slip away, so you'll use your body to keep them ensnared.
  20. Territorial: Your house, your things - they belong to you, and that can give you a rush. Maybe you want to show your lover that they're yours, too.
  21. I Have to Stay: You don't want to be caught up in this, but you're making yourself stay and keeping yourself in bed with the "enemy."
  22. Now I Only Want You Gone: You want this person out of your life, and there are few stronger ways to send this message than make a cuckold of them. Preferably when they know it.
  23. Tell Me More: You want to know if this whole "playing house" thing is all it's cut out to be.
  24. Proving them All Wrong: They said you'd never, ever find someone. Now, you're showing them just what kind of catch you've got yourself by not taking your hands off what you've earned.
  25. Forced Together: Be it expectations or arranged marriage, you two are stuck together. Of course, such contracts involve a certain amount of physical action, like producing heirs.
  26. Keeping Up Appearances: You want to look successful in life, and part of that involves being in a sexual relationship. Or perhaps you want to hide something about yourself.
  27. Argument: Ugh, they put their feet on the table! They broke your favorite vase! They're so...so...hot when they're mad!
  28. Making Up: You feel sorry for what you've said or done and will do anything to prove that. You just want to shower them with your affection (or not), or show them how much they're wanted.
  29. Like Melted Butter: You want something, and the best way to get it is to butter them up and get under their skin - in a good way.
  30. Starting a Family: Both of you are taking the next step and bringing a new life into this world, and there's one old fashioned way to do it.
  31. Absolutely Glowing: So, one of you is pregnant. How has your sex life been affected by changing bodies and mood swings?
  32. Kids Will Be Kids: Now you guys have rugrats to take care of, but don't forget to make time for the two of you. Alone adult time is important.
  33. At-home Date: Break out the wine and the frozen pizza, it's time for a date at the house! Who says you need to go to a fancy dinner to get in the mood?
  34. Lazy Day: Today we're not doing anything, we're just gonna stay in our bed. And all that entails.
  35. Newlyweds: You two are more than committed. You've said your vows, for better or for worse. Hopefully, things will stay better, especially when you take things to the privacy of your room.
  36. Mr. and Mrs. Smith: The relationship is forbidden for some reason, and to have it, you all had to run away and start a new life. Maybe you even have assumed identities! Is it painful that you can only be your true selves in the bedroom?
  37. Tie Me to the Bed Post: The great thing about a well-furnished place is all the cool things you can find lying around that can be repurposed for other tasks. Like tying someone's arms or teasing someone's genitals.
  38. Out of My Closet: Speaking of things lying around, how about a sexy show with those underused items in your wardrobe?
  39. At Another Person's Home: Who cares that you're guests at somebody's house and they can hear you through the walls? Go for it!
  40. With Another Person at Home: Who cares that you have a guest at your house and they can hear you through the walls? Go for it!
  41. Way Down in Kokomo: You're on vacation. Sun, sand, surf, and 24/7 sex.
  42. Finally Tamed: No one, including you, thought you'd ever be domestic. But this person and their sexual attention have brought you to your knees.
Other

  1. The Help: A home can run more smoothly with hired help like maids and cooks. It's beneficial to show that help some well-deserved love now and then, too.
  2. The Babysitter: Whether live-in or not, a babysitter goes through a lot and develops a bond with the kids. He or she may develop a bond with the parent(s), as well.
  3. The Guest: You've been invited to this person's house - and their bed - and they're showing you the ultimate hospitality.
  4. Siblings...or More: The two of you are related, but you live together like a couple. There are whispers...are they true?
  5. Roommates with Benefits: You're not committed or exclusive, but it's nice to have somebody in the same house with you that you can be with when you need it.
  6. Mister Fix-It: All homes sometimes need repairs. Maybe a qualified repair person can make other repairs, as well.

 UNUSUAL STIMULATION
  (a smut meme)


Sometimes, people get off in the strangest ways whether intentionally or by accidental discovery.

- post your character, series title, and preferences in the subject.
- others go to RNG to get a scenario. Roll 1-2 for either accidental or intentional (or just choose whatever fits!), then 1-6 for what's happening. They can either be the ones stumbling in/stimulating the thread starter or being the ones stimulated themselves.
- Play it out!

.accidental.

↳ 1. friction
What started in playful wrestling, dancing, or any other activity that would get you rubbing up against someone (or thing!) has caused an unexpected reaction! Your partner has kind of figured it out too... question is, do they keep it up or push you away?
↳ 2. good vibrations
Maybe you've been caught taking advantage of the washer during spin cycle, taking a ride with another person on a motorcycle, or you're finding some other unusual vibration a little too enjoyable to hide. Same as above, does your partner help you out or are they freaked?
↳ 3. there's an app
You're in a tight space, settled just right on someone's lap, or maybe you just thought you'd have a little fun with the vibration function on your phone and got caught.
↳ 4. unusual props
You're feeling a little kinkier than usual and unfortunately, you don't have any toys around. Time to improvise! Spanked with the back of a brush, tied with scarves or actual ties, finding a whole new use for cucumbers besides salads, whatever...
↳ 5. fun in the tub
There are a lot of ways to get stimulation in the water! Detachable showerheads, faucets, or just plain getting a little to excited when your partner just intends to wash you. There are also jets aimed (in)appropriately in hot tubs and getting frisky swimming.
↳ 6. your choice
Don't see something here? Want to combine a couple option? Do it here!

.intentional.

↳ 1. friction
You got a craving to see how desperate your lover can be to get off. It might have started off as innocent or maybe you were trying to get them worked up, but you expect them to get off just by grinding against you or another object for friction.
↳ 2. good vibrations
There are a lot of things that vibrate and you suddenly want to test them out on your lover...
↳ 3. there's an app
You make sure the phone in your pocket is pressed just right up against your lover in a tight space or while they're settled in your lap or you just outright press it up against them an start calling to get them off.
↳ 4. unusual props
You're feeling kinky and you don't want to go out of your way to get a toy, so it's just whatever is around. Maybe there was even some planning before hand and you both just get off on the idea of using something around the house for a change.
↳ 5. fun in the tub
There are a lot of ways to get off in the water an you're determined to show your lover.
↳ 6. your choice
Don't see something here? Want to combine a couple option? Do it here!

DISCOVERY
smut meme )

Before this moment, sex never, for all intents and purposes, crossed your mind. Maybe you just weren't interested. Maybe you thought no one would be interested in you, or that you didn't deserve it or weren't compatible with the act itself. There's even the chance that you haven't even known about sex at all - perhaps if you did, you could only associate it with terrible things or past traumas couldn't let you even fathom it.

All of that reasoning is in the past, though. Now, right now, you're with a person who makes you feel...everything. And you want to keep going, as you're mapping out new experiences and pleasures you never knew existed as you learn how to let go and be intimate. More importantly, you feel safe with this person, and safe to explore them, too. You definitely want to do a lot of that, because learning about them is even more interesting than learning new quirks about yourself. The way they move, the noises they make, it's all so warm and intoxicating.

You may have never imagined you'd find yourself in such a sexually charged scenario, but you don't want to stop this union any time soon.

   true love's kiss


“As she bends for a Kleenex in the dark, I am thinking of other girls: the girl I loved who fell in love with a lion—she lost her head over it—we just necked a lot; of the girl who fell in love with the tightrope, got addicted to getting high wired and nothing else was enough; all the beautiful, damaged women who have come through my life and I wonder what would have happened if I’d met them sooner, what they were like before they were so badly wounded. All this time I thought I’d been kissing, but maybe I’m always doing mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, kissing dead girls in hopes that the heart will start again. Where there’s breath, I’ve heard, there’s hope.”

– Daphne Gottlieb, Kissing Dead Girls


You bit the poisoned apple. The needle of the spinning wheel pierced your finger. The terms are complete, the cursed fulfilled. Or perhaps your downfall is more modern (technology, bio-weaponry, misuse of powers) or metaphoric. Regardless, you've slipped in a sleep as deep as death. No one or nothing can wake you.

Nothing except a kiss from your true love.

— comment with your character + prefs + desired role. are you cursed or cusebreaker?
— reply to others.
— remember, your 'true love' might not be who you expect; the conventional may not work, the outlandish the perfect fit instead.

 The Dating Meme


Dating is, when you think about, really weird. It's a totally different thing for different people. Some are friends for years before they date; others start dating on the same day they met. Sometimes, there's a lot mushy stuff involved; other times, the couple acts just like friends. None of this is necessarily right or wrong.

Whatever it is, your character and the character you reply to are now dating. How? That's up to you. Whether it be awkward or not, the relationship will be uniquely theirs.

How to Play

-Comment with your character and preferences.
-Reply to others.
-Have fun.
 
Prompts


1. Best Friends to More: Oh, wow, you've been this person's friend forever! But then you realize you have feelings for them, and they for you. Will things change when you change your status?
2. The Sudden Decision: Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy, but here I am, date me maybe?

02 under the weather. exhausted from work or battle. injured or sick or weary. whatever the case, their energy is sapped.
03 under the influence. drunk, drugged, caught by a spell. your doing or somebody else's, their consciousness is fading either way.
04 on the edge bags on their eyes, a sigh on their lips. they want to sleep so badly, but something is getting in the way

01 goodnight. talk in a soothing voice, stroke their skin, press a chloroform rag to their nose. anything to help them fall asleep, or stop them from waking up.
02 sweet talk. gibberish, secret truths, sweet dreams, and nightmares. they're mumbling words in their sleep, and you're there to listen and reply (if you're feeling so inclined). or maybe you have something to say you can only tell their sleeping self.
03 gentle touch. why disturb them at all? it's enough to make sure they're comfortable, enough to pull up their blanket, brush away that loose strand of hair, and watch them rest in peace... temporarily.
04 rough hands. you want them, and you want them now. why wait until they wake up? or maybe that is how you wake them up? hey, as long as you pull up that nightdress and have fun!
05 good morning. smell the coffee, let the sunshine in, get up, get up! don't let them sleep (any longer).

 The Sex Pollen Meme




This is a highly sexual and somewhat dangerous meme! Many if not all options are potentially triggering. Please use your best judgment before participating.

1. Comment with your character, putting their name, canon, and any prefs (e.g. women only, not #4, AU, aged up, etc.) in the subject line and/or comment.
2. When other characters tag in, they'll use this handy RNG (1-9) to pick an option from the list below.
3. Have fun, sex peeps up, ???, profit.

Options:

1. The Slutty One: When you're sprayed with this pollen, all you wanna do is bang. All inhibitions go out the window—if you don't get some orgasms pumping out, your whole world is gonna end. Seduction, debasement, that's what this option's all about. Do whatever it takes to get that sweet, sweet satisfaction.

2. The Violent One: This pollen makes you wanna bang, sure, but it also makes you pissed as fuck. Everything's painted in red—the anger's overwhelming. Whoever you see next? That's who's taking the full force of your assault. You don't know if you wanna punch 'em or kiss 'em, but something's gonna happen.

3. The Soulmate One: There's only one person the pollen is driving you to find, driving you to romance, driving you to be with — biblically. And maybe it's not someone you want to be this attracted to, but your mind/body/spirit—everything's saying yes. Even if your sensibility alone says no. Time to hunt out your soulmate and convince them this is destiny.

4. The Touch-based One: This pollen works a tad differently from the others. Instead of dousing an individual and making them need, it waits until they've touched someone. It could be the slightest brush of fingertips, it could be a kiss from an already willing lover. Whatever it is, the pollen's activated, and there's no going back. Every touch feels a little bit better than the last.

5. The Possessive One: This sex pollen is the lovechild of options 2 and 3 — a pollen that makes you crazy about that one particular person. You've gotta have them, protect them, own the moment. There's no one you'd rather be 'sharing' this with, and no one they're allowed to. Jealousy and need taken to the highest level.

6. The Snuggly One: The lightest of all the sex pollens, this variety just asks for some good, snuggly fun. Not necessarily vanilla, but definitely kinder. A hug can be just as good as a handjob if it's from the right person. Kinda.

7. The Hallucinogenic One: Whooooa, man. This is a trip. Nothing's looking quite right, the sky is purple, the ground is pitch black, and the person in front of you looks like your latest wet dream. This pollen clogs the mind and leaves its victim feeling high and confused. What a predicament.

8. The Animalistic One: Speaking of dulled down thought processes—this pollen has removed all of them. Nary a one remains, because now you're pure animal, living in the moment, looking for a mate. Your ability to speak in more than hisses and growls and monosyllabic conversation's been compromised. Let's hope it passes.

9. Wild Card: Mixup, mashup, do whatever you like.

 IT STARTED WITH A KISS

How to play

① Tag in with your name/series.
② Go to RNG and roll 1-10. That's your scenario!
③ Tag around!
④ Have fun. :)


Scenarios

① ACCIDENTAL. Did someone shove you on the subway? Were you standing too close and did one of you trip? Oops, this is awkward!
② PASSIONATE. You love this person so much that it's impossible to hold yourself in check any more!
③ GENTLE. They knew it was coming, you knew it was too late to back out. Trouble is, you're having a lot of FEELINGS.
④ GIGGLY. How are you supposed to kiss them when neither of you can stop laughing?
⑤ SMOOTH. You couldn't have been smoother with that smooch if you were whisked with fruit, dashed with milk and served over the counter.
⑥ DANGEROUS. This really isn't the time to be getting romantic! If it goes wrong, you can always blame the adrenaline, right? Right.
⑦ SAD. Remember: a wet kiss is a memorable kiss, even if it isn't a good one.
⑧ TEASING. The tables have turned: this time, they will be the one left wanting more.
⑨ PAINFUL. Clinked teeth? Banged foreheads? Well done, Romeo, now you both share the same sore distraction.
⑩ LINGERING. You just ... can't ... stop. Uh oh.

 ( Sensuality )



The power of suggestion can, when applied expertly, be much more poignant than what's overt. When the imagination is allowed to fill in the blanks, actions or images that could be innocent in another context may seem much more salacious. And even with the risque, like a sexy lingerie set, what's appealing isn't the skin showing, it's what's hidden.


The art of "leaving something to the imagination" may be dying, some say, so let's put it into practice. Stolen glances, heated touches, pinnings against walls, pining, brushing bodies, deep kissing, faces pressed in necks, and tension. Tension, tension, tension. Remember, sensuality, not sexuality, though the interaction between you could get heated when all of the senses are involved.

 The Romantic Intimacy Meme



Intimacy is NOT necessarily about full sexual contact. Intimacy is all about two people forming a connection and bond between them. That involves becoming best friends, trusting each other, knowing each other, understanding each other. Intimacy is grown and developed, it can't be rushed.


Nonsexual forms of intimacy can add a great deal of depth and variety to fiction. On one end of the spectrum, they provide extra steps to support the journey from meeting a potential mate through romance, sex, and marriage. Sex is valuable, but it's not everything.

RULES

  • Comment with your character. Be sure to include preferences
  • Tag others!

PROMPTS

  1. Hair care. Brushing, braiding, washing, cutting -- all of these involve a lot of careful touching in ways that many people enjoy. Hair braiding is a bonding experience in some cultures. In fact, grooming is a bonding technique for social primates in general. People without close ties to others often treat themselves to regular salon visits as a socially acceptable way to meet the need for touch and interaction.
  2. Shaving. This involves an unusually high level of trust, especially if the person is using a straight-edge razor or something else with an exposed blade rather than just a buzzer. Although it can apply to women, shaving is one of the few forms of physical intimacy that is most closely associated with men due to their facial hair. Initiaton into shaving is a major milestone for becoming a man, not just for boys during puberty but also for transsexuals during transition.
  3. Bathing. This varies by culture; in America most people bathe alone but some other cultures practice communal bathing. A bath is usually more intimate than a shower, although a public bath can be non-intimate and small shower stall can be intimate. It's also different when two people wash each other (an exchange of intimacy and affection) than when one person washes someone else (more of a caretaking or protective gesture).
  4. Feeding. A classic romantic motif involves lovers feeding each other, but it works as a way of providing and caring for someone in any context. Like bathing, it can also clue whether both parties are participating equally or one is taking care of the other (temporarily or regularly). This one has an existential flavor since survival depends on food supply.
  5. Seeing someone without their adaptive equipment on. This includes glasses, dentalware, prosthetic limbs, a wheelchair, etc. Adaptive equipment is part of one's presentation to the everyday world, and taking it off can be as intimate as removing clothing, for many people in many contexts.
  6. Holding Hands: There can be many reasons for this gesture. Physical closeness, offering comfort, or staying together in a crowd, all may have you reaching for someone.
  7. Undressing someone. This can be kind of a one-way experience if the recipient isn't awake, and is often awkward for both people if they are awake. Sometimes it happens because hands are out of commission, but a more common example is someone passing out drunk. Overheating is another good reason. Different circumstances can imply different levels of intimacy.
  8. Sharing secrets. This especially applies to talking about personal issues that aren't widely known. An exchange of secrets is a common ritual between "best friends" among girls and women, but appears elsewhere as well. Some things are only discussed among people with a common reference; veterans may be more comfortable discussing war memories with each other than civilians.
  9. Ordering for someone in a restaurant. Acquiring food, without asking the other person what to get, shows a knowledge of their needs and desires. Providing food is also a gesture of support and sustenance.
  10. Providing moral support at a major event. Helping someone get through a funeral, a trial, or other intense but not crisis situation is usually performed by a very dear friend. This is a situation where lovers or family members may be too close to the matter to be much use.
  11. Crying on someone. When you cry, you tend to let your guard down. Most of the people close to you will see you cry at some point, so that can be a milestone in a relationship. Actually crying on someone, letting them hold you, is even more intimate.
  12. Serving in a primary role for someone during a wedding. This includes the best man or maid of honor at a wedding, or stand-in for absent parents, etc. as well as the traditional family roles. One aspect of intimacy is sharing each other's lives, including ceremonies and transitions.
  13. Comforting someone after a bad breakup. Moments of great vulnerability can bring people closer. While this role sometimes falls to family, breakup repair more often goes to a woman's female friends or a man's male friends.
  14. Listening to someone's heartbeat or breathing. Close body contact, enough to carry soft personal sounds, tends to be comforting as well as connecting, as it touches on positive childhood memories for most people. It is shared between parent and child, sometimes between siblings, and later between lovers. Tight nonsexual partners may also do this.
  15. Putting someone to bed. Interestingly, this activity can happen among people who are just getting to know each other -- most often if someone passes out drunk, but exhaustion can have a similar effect. It's a gesture of caring to put someone to bed rather than leave them where they drop. A milder version involves draping a blanket or coat over a person asleep on a couch or the like.
  16. Sleeping in the same bed. This is an act of shared vulnerability and intimacy. Lovers customarily do this; so do some siblings or friends, especially as children. People may also be driven to share a bed, sleeping bag, etc. for warmth or lack of other accommodations in challenging circumstances.
  17. Watching someone sleep. There is more vulnerability on the part of the sleeper, and more intimacy from the watcher, when only one person is asleep. Parents often watch their children sleep. Lovers sometimes do this with each other, which can be cute or creepy. It's also a guard position, useful for showing that one character seeks to protect another.
  18. Waking someone up from a nightmare. A subtler form of rescue than more physical actions, this is still a gesture of protection and caring. It often leads to comfort afterwards. A typical courtesy between parent and child, or lovers, this can also be an early threshold for characters thrust together unexpectedly if one of them has sturdy daytime walls and a lot of issues. It is common, but often unspoken, among war buddies or veterans, many of whom have nightmares.
  19. Sharing clothes, jewelry, other personal items. This is common between siblings or close female friends. Sometimes roommates do it too. Wearing someone else's shirt or bathrobe is typical in romantic relationships, so can suggest a similar level of intimacy even in the absence of sex.
  20. Cleaning someone else's living space. This shows care and knowledge on the part of the cleaner, and trust on the part of the recipient. You have to know what NOT to throw away or move. It's typical of family members and roommates. Coworkers may clean each other's desk, office space, etc.
  21. Living together. This is a big step, even if it's just for a little while. Housemates are in each other's pockets; it's hard to keep secrets. Family members and lovers often live together, but housemates who are family-of-choice form a category of their own. If you don't want a romantic partner, a permanent housemate is a good choice for someone to share your life with.
  22. Childbirth. Attending the blessed event entails providing a lot of moral support for hours under high stress. It can create a bond with the baby as well as with the mother. When planned, this opportunity is only offered to the closest family members or friends, barring professionals. But it can happen by surprise in very awkward circumstances, a popular motif in fiction.
  23. Saving someone's life. Quick action in a life-threatening situation demonstrates how much one person values another. This can create a strong sense of connection, and sometimes obligation. It often, though not always, entails personal risk for the rescuer. This is fairly typical for military buddies or police partners, etc.
  24. Risking your life for someone. Placing someone else ahead of your own life shows their importance to you unequivocally. This often, though not always, involves trying to save or protect another person. While it can create a sense of gratitude, it frequently causes anger as well -- someone who loves you will generally object to you endangering yourself, even to protect them. Military and police buddies protect each other regularly.
  25. Making emergency decisions for someone. This reveals both how well you know the person, and how much you care about them -- whether you know what they would want, and act on it even if it differs from your personal preference. Unlike some of the other options, in this one the initial action is often outweighed by the aftermath. Both characters have to deal with the results of the decisions, good or bad.
  26. Deathwatch. Dying can be as intimate as giving birth. Staying with someone while they pass is an act of love; so is providing moral support to someone sitting deathwatch for a family member or other person. Many soldiers and police have done this for someone.

The Size Difference/Size Kink Meme

Size kink is a kink or preference for a distinct difference in size, height, musculature or weight between two sexual partners.

It isn't too unusual for two people in a relationship to be of different sizes, be it height or weight or anything else of that nature; after all, it'd probably be more strange to see two people together with the exact same "specs," so to speak. What are the odds? Still, the difference isn't always pronounced.

Except, sometimes, when it is.

Some people find the difference cute or charming, while others are not such big fans. Whatever the case may be, there are benefits and drawbacks, all the same.

This meme is for playing out everything that comes with being in a relationship where one party is a different size than the other. All configurations are welcome!

How to Play

  • Comment with your character and your preferences. It will also probably be beneficial for you to include information about your character's size for those who aren't familiar with your canon (ie, saying "big" or "small" or "tall" or "short" in the subject line, then extrapolating in the comment). Remember, though, there may always be someone bigger or smaller!
  • Comment to others.
  • Use the RNG to determine prompts or just go with the flow.

Prompts

  1. Cute: The difference between you and your partner is adorable and fluffy, complete with big spoon and little spoon cuddling, carrying, and head patting.
  2. Awkward: In some couplings, especially in heterosexual ones, there is an unfair expectation for one party to be taller than the other. When it's the reverse, you can sometimes get stares and cruel comments. But don't let that get you down.
  3. Inadequate: Because of your size, you feel embarrassed and afraid that the person you love might not love you.
  4. Don't Want to Hurt You: If the size difference is great, there can be a fear on the part of the bigger half of the couple that they might hurt the smaller half - especially in sex. How can you work around this problem?
  5. Weight: Your size difference is in weight, not height.
  6. Not What You Expect: In fiction and pop culture, the bigger partner is usually the dominant one. What if that's not the case in this pairing, though?
  7. HUGE Difference: It's not just a foot or so difference; it's YARDS. One of you is really big and the other is tiny. No matter what, the way you care for each other is giant.
  8. Aren't You Too Young?: The smaller partners can get confused for kids next to their bigger lovers, and that can be embarrassing. You want to prove to your partner that they need not worry about what other people say - you're sexy and very much not a kid (unless you are, I suppose).
  9. Benefits: Having a size difference in your relationship isn't all downsides. There are perks to having a partner who can pick you up, carry you, press you against the wall...basically, this is the hot size difference sex option.
  10. WILD CARD

RULES

• Leave a comment with your character's name and fandom.
• RNG for a number between 1-10 to get your scenario. Mix and match!

SCENARIOS

01) One In A Million | The other person is the only reason you agreed to play this game and now you have them right where you've hoped for all night! Get it, tiger.

02) Not My Type | This is hella awkward. Is it their voice? Attitude? Appearance? You just don't want those lips anywhere near yours. Seven Minutes In Heaven, more like Seven Minutes Of Nope.

03) Seventy Minutes | You're so involved in smooching that neither of you notices the door has been locked and everyone else has left the room! Not until it's too late.

04) Unrequited | Tell them how you feel (so many! emotions!!). Even if you're a little too enthusiastic and your love is unrequited you still have seven minutes of smooching to do, as per game rules. You can't fail!

05) Seconds and Thirds | Some self-proclaimed funny man outside upped the stakes and now a third party has been shoved inside with the two of you. Make the most of it! (Three-way threads ahoy!)

06) Taken | One of you has a significant other and your seven minutes are spent smooching anyway. Oops.

07) Strangers in the Hangers | Hello there, Good Looking. Where has this hottie been all night? Who cares, now they're yours!

08) Long Lost Smooches | You haven't seen them in forever and didn't know they were going to be here tonight. Resolve that UST!

09) Party Pooper | One of those involved is upset because of #PartyShit and now they're trapped in a closet after getting dragged into playing a game they tried to avoid. Cheer them up? With kisses? Good plan.

10) Get A Room | Your seven minutes are up but neither of you wants to stop. Relocate to a spare room!

 Deserve to be Happy



If we're honest, fictional characters can be generalized into two camps: 1. good people who have crap happen to them or 2. just crappy people. But bad or good, cheery or grouchy, undeserving or no, we sometimes shamelessly want them to have something nice in life. Or, more accurately, 
someone nice. A certain someone to give them kisses and their favorite foods, to make sure they have a blanket when they fall asleep, and maybe to whisk them away on fun dates/adventures? If they're lucky, this somebody may even give killer back rubs.

But forget your shame, okay? No judgement here. This is just a cute meme for all your gross (shipping) needs, where your character can get all the happiness they deserve...or don't. Whatever!

  • Comment with your character's info, your prefs, all those goodies. You can also include info about what would make your character really happy or if there's a particular role you'd like to play (maybe the one doing the cheering up?).

BATTLE COUPLE meme


This is the kind of couple where bullets figure prominently in the story of their romance. Where "war buddy" and "significant other" are synonyms. If you harm either one of them, the survivor will kill you as surely as the sun rises. Their mere presence increases the chance of a "back-to-back badasses" scene to nearly 100%. They may also bicker or flirt in the middle of a fight, much to the confusion or consternation of their opponents. They tend to be extremely resistant to breakup since their bond was forged in combat.
( from the dreaded tvtropes. )

feeling a little choked up?

 

 

 
Hey, you all remember this, right?

If not, here's how it works: your character has woken up in a strange new city, called Atia, and they've never been here before in their lives. It's beautiful, and its got an ancient and ambiguous Greco-Roman feel. Anything you need here is easily within your character's grasp. Life is easy. The city isn't very large, wrapped along the sea side, and the native people are friendly. The only hang up is that, for whatever reason, the goddess Atia (the city's namesake), who rules the city, has ungraciously bestowed upon your character a collar. Each collar is unique to their wearers, and every day that passes without orgasm, the collar gets a little tighter—and it can be lethal; a slow, painful death. Additionally, the collars absolutely, by no means, can be removed. Maybe your character has tried, but it doesn't work. Getting off alone can help loosen it just a bit, but it won't save them. You can only loosen the collar to a completely comfortable state through sex.

Get to it!


𝒫 𝑅 𝒪 𝑀 𝒫 𝒯 𝒮 / 𝐼 𝒟 𝐸 𝒜 𝒮


♥ 1. NEW:
 You're new to the city. Maybe you're excited about what you've learned regarding what fuels the city of Atia. Maybe you're mortified. Is this your first time? Hope you've made some friends, if things are getting a little tight.

♥ 2. VETERAN:
You've been here for perhaps a year or two. You're pretty much over getting bent out of sex in any capacity, or maybe you never have been. Maybe you've discovered some new kinks, with your hopefully new found comfort for intimacy. It could be you often help newer folks, or people often send you to their friends they aren't willing to bang themselves. Or maybe you've been a stick in the mud the whole way through—but you've gotten really good at surviving.

♥ 3. CHAOTIC HO:
It might not be totally clear how long you've been here, but you've never been uncomfortable with the premise of Atia. As a matter of fact, you're kind of notoriously into it. You're so obnoxiously horny, you kind of annoy people. There's a good hunk of the local community that celebrates your hedonism, though.

♥ 4. PRUDE:
Maybe you have a close couple of friends you go to to tend to your breathing comfort, but it's just business. Similarly, maybe you've been tasked to bailing out someone who's been foolish enough to let things get so bad in the first place, due to whatever their reasons are. What a hassle.

♥ 5. PROCRASTINATOR:
Whatever your circumstance, you're already half choked out, and you're about to have some really uncomfortable sex. Maybe you've been found this way by a concerned friend, or maybe you've made an embarrassing, urgent network post to beckon for help. Shameless. This can of course be combo'd with the above prompts, nothing is so rigid; these are just ideas to help you out!

 


(note: For those of you newish to journal RP, Amatomnes was the first sex game, hailing back to Livejournal. That said, operate as if your characters are in/have been in a proper game; assumed CR is probably agiven. The degree of your character's condition is up to you. I don't actually remember Amat super well, except it was a lot of fun. Chalk up any inaccuracies to who gives a fuck, and have fun!
note pt.2: I should say that you can toplevel/tag out with your character as a veteran even if you weren't a part of Amat! Just seeing how people are tagging into the meme, I thought I should clarify for any undue uncertainty.)

San Junipero is a lively, bustling seaside town. It's both a popular vacation destination and a lovely permanent residence. The days are always long, the weather is often perfect, there's always your favorite song playing on the radio.

During the day, the sun shines and the carefree residents spend their days lounging on the beach, perusing the strip or spending private time in their homes. At night, San Junipero transforms into a party town. Booming bass fills the clubs and echoes out into the streets, the once carefree residents become boisterous and jovial, dancing and drinking long into the night.

And everything set to the backdrop of a beachy paradise.

What San Junipero really is, however, is a simulated reality in which the minds of the dead, or dying, can be uploaded to the TCKR Systems Cloud Server as alternative versions of their younger selves forever; and which the living can visit for up to five hours per week.

While there is no real concept of time in San Junipero (the days on the calendar may change, but residents and visitors do not age.), the program itself rotates through the decades.

Ah, love. Ain't it great, all those starstruck, breath-stealing, head-swimming feelings? Be careful you don't throw up...from joy. Hey, but you should know all this; you're smitten, yourself! And the person who has your heart is promised to-

Oh. Oh. The person you love's with someone else, huh? Ouch. Whether it be a mutual romance that's interrupted by an (also mutual) attraction to you or an unfortunate circumstance or obligation that's got them pinned to somebody they don't even care for, they're out of your reach.

...or are they? It's your life, don't let us tell you what to do, still- listen to your heart. Listen to your gut. Probably don't listen to your brain. Decide whether or not you'll do the "right thing" and lose them forever.

Or, stick with us here: tell them to screw everything else and just be with you. You want them. They want you. How could that be bad?

 raised together romance



There's guilt. There's shame. But there's also a sense of belonging and attraction you can't deny. Besides, how can you choose who you fall for, anyway - plus, it makes sense that you'd love somebody so close to you, right?


Like. Say, somebody who you've known since childhood. Maybe even a person that was raised alongside you like a...well. A sibling.

Yes, this is where things get dicey. Let's just say your childhood wasn't the best and leave it at that. You weren't completely alone, though, and it's probably natural that you cling to whatever or whoever understands your dysfunction because they lived it, too. Still, the question remains: will you follow your feelings or hold back thanks to we-shouldn't-it's-wrong?

the "Starting a Family" meme

Nature is no respecter of persons, my friends. Whether it be childhood friends, newlyweds, or one-night stands, a single decision or accident can change everything, and there will be three people instead of just two.

Congratulations! The characters in these threads and those who reply to them are now expecting babies, no matter what their unique situation may be. Of course, depending on the characters, this might go over like a lead balloon. But wait! Even if the decision to have a baby was made and was consensual, the process is no walk in the park. There is lots to do...and only nine months to do it. Nine potentially drama-filled months.

HOW TO PLAY

  • Comment with your character, preferences, etc.
  • Not all options here are fluffy and happy. Some are potentially angsty or possibly triggering. Tread lightly. Be sure to mention what you want and what you don't want.
  • Reply to others.
  • For this, male characters can get pregnant because why not.
PROMPTS


  • How'd It Happen: What led up to this event? How are you in this situation?

  • Realization: There's a wrench in the works...or maybe it was expected, but you're just realizing you're pregnant.

  • Positive Reaction: Yes, after all this time and planning! You're finally ready for a family.

  • Negative Reaction: Oh, no. This is terrible. You're in no position to take care of a child!

  • Freak Outs: But...how? You're a human, she's an alien, how -

  • Deciding What to Do: If this wasn't planned, there needs to be a plan of action now.

  • Keep it Secret: You're attempting to keep your pregnancy a secret from your partner. This is only a bandaid for the bigger problem.

  • Telling Others: The other people in you two's life have to know at some point.

  • Drama: No one wanted you to have a kid and the anger is palpable.

  • Morning Sickness and More: Everything hurts and the mornings are hell.

  • Learning: If you're in a technologically advanced society, you may get to see an ultrasound. Otherwise, there are folk remedies that can be tried.

  • Manipulation: One of you is using the prospect of a child to bend the other to their will and make them stay.

  • My Body is a Cage: The person carrying the baby is having a decent amount of discomfort, mentally and physically.

  • Showing: It's a secret no longer with an expanding stomach.

  • Support: The partner who isn't carrying the child should do their best to be there and help out...

  • Overprotective: ...but to a degree. Don't act like the partner carrying the child is made of paper.

  • Getting Ready: The house or apartment or castle has to be babyproof.

  • Heart to Heart: It's time to talk about the big changes before the happen. Where do the two of you stand?

  • It's Happening: THE BABY IS COMING.

  • Rough Going: Childbirth is still a dangerous affair and there's no smooth sailing for you. So pace if you're lucky, scream in the bed if you're not.

  • Bad End: Not all new beginnings last. Sometimes, they become unhappy endings.

  • Coming Home: Finally, parents and baby get to settle down.

  • Getting Used to This: Well, maybe settle down. There's still crying in the night, feedings to do, diapers to change...

That's how a fairy tale would start, followed by velvet words and beautiful images on parchment, telling of the adventures of heroes. But you? You don't get a fairy tale - you certainly don't get the prerequisite knight in shining armor, whether you wanted one or not. Forget the knights. Bring on the barbarians, the raiders on behemoth ships, uncouth Northmen from the coldest reaches, and, if you're from a fantasy-setting, the orcs/dwarves/wild elves/other species.

It's the right time, yet the wrong place and the wrong person, for sure. Maybe you're being protected, somehow; on the other hand, you could be getting kidnapped. At any rate, your companion is a rough-edged warrior, a commoner, a ruffian rogue, or even worse, a savage.

Will you even survive this story unscathed? Because you certainly won't get a picture-book ending or, far be it, true love...right?

Or, if you're just here for the smut: observe the "loin cloths or Pelts of the Barbarian, taut rippling muscles, oiled back, impressive weapons, the beard of a grizzly bear (or inexplicably clean-shaven at all times) and glorious manly manes."

  • Comment with your character, preferences (shipping, smut, what have you), etc.
  • Whether you want a realistic setting, a picturesque fable setting, or something more akin to realism or a gritty fantasy world a la Game of Thrones, we've got you covered!

Regency AU

Whether your character was dropped through a portal or just has always been here, welcome to Regency Era England, the height of fashion, social decorum, and questions of marriageability. Or, well, nearly Regency Era England. In this version, no one’s going to think anything odd of your character being of another species (unless you want them to), and no one civilised would possibly object to marriages between persons of the same sex (unless you want them to).

But all of the delightful propriety and social manoeuvering, and the utmost importance of making a good marriage match, well, that’s all perfectly intact. Welcome to (mostly) Regency England.


Character roles:

1. Heir to a Fortune - You have 20,000 pounds a year (incredible!) and perhaps even a title. Whoever marries you will net a fortune, and a life of luxury.
2. A Notable Army Career - You’ve distinguished yourself with honour in His Majesty’s Royal Army (or was it Her Majesty’s All-Female Fighting Dragoons?). Now that you’ve retired, for whatever reason, you’ve been honoured with a title and a very pleasant estate in the country. All you need now is an eligible companion for your new life.
3. The American Heir - Your family has money, but you’re hoping to net the one thing that money can’t buy—a title. Surely there’s some impoverished and attractive young noble who would be delighted to remedy that.
4. Winning Personality - You haven’t got money to speak of, nor a title, but your family has four daughters (or sons) to be married off, and you’re the eldest. Your family can fund you for one year to make your Debut in society, so you’d better make it count.
5. The Courtesan - They may have been edged out of polite society in the social reforms of the Victorian Era, but in the regency, courtesans like Harriette Wilson and Julia Johnstone were scandalously popular. Perhaps your virtue was lost or the prospect of being a powerful noble’s lover was too tempting—either way, now you’re a member of the Demimonde of London, and all of London is fascinated and delighted by your weekly scandals and spectacular balls.
6. The Bohemian - You are an actor, an artist, a model, a singer, anything you please, and your talent is enough to get you mentioned—perhaps lauded!—in society.
7. The Governess/Tutor - You’re well-born and well-educated, but you inherited little to nothing and find yourself reduced to making a living on the fringes of polite society. Specifically, working as a tutor or governess (or perhaps as a valet, chaperone, or lady’s maid, depending on how far you’ve fallen) to members of your own class who find themselves better-monied than you.
8. Upstairs Downstairs - The unseen and unsung heroes of the glittering society, you are not one of the Quality, but they cannot live without you. Perhaps it’s to be an affair with your master or mistress? Risky. Safer to conduct a romance—and find marriage—with a member of your own class.
9. Not One of the Blessed Few - You’re a working class English citizen, in London or the country. The world of high society doesn’t notice you at all, unless it’s to splash you with their passing carriage. A farmer, a labourer, or perhaps a prostitute, but your lack of high birth doesn’t make you any less worthy of life and love.
10. Wildcard

Situations

A. A London Ball - Every Wednesday at Almack’s club, there’s dancing that lasts late into the evening. No entry after 11, not even to royalty, and the guest list is the most exclusive in London. But somehow you’ve secured a token of admittance, whether you’re Cinderella for an evening or whether you attend every week.
B. A Private Party - Not your usual stomping ground, perhaps, but you know the host, and you heard that there would be some interesting figures making an appearance.
C. A Garden Party - It’s so pleasant to escape London in the summer, isn’t it? The heat, the stench… But it’s very lovely here, and the gardens of the estate have been strung with Chinese lanterns. It’s the party of the season, at least in regards to the society of Herefordshire.
D. The Gothic Manor - In classic gothic romance fashion, you’ve been shipped away to the countryside as the ward or fiance of a gloomy gothic mansion. Your host is very attractive, and just your type, but what sort of secrets are they hiding in the attic?
E. New to the Neighbourhood - You’ve just moved into a lovely provincial estate, at least for the summer, and you’ve heard the most interesting things about your neighbours. Time to pay them a social visit! Or perhaps they’ll be visiting you.
F. Zombies - It is a truth universally acknowledged, after all, that a zombie in possession of brains must be in want of more brains.

Love You to Death Shipping Meme


For centuries, cultures all over the world have anthropomorphized the concept of Death. It's easier to comprehend something so infinite, so complex as actually being like us. That's how we can wrap out minds around what is inevitable.

Characters in many canons have come close to dying, have been in danger of dying, or have actually died at some point. The more that's at stake, the more interesting the narrative.

So, naturally, let's take those two commonalities and blend them up into one simple meme: shipping with Death. And why not? Plenty of terms describing death-related scenarios are framed in words that are romantic or intimate. Kiss of death. A brush with death. What if those things were literal? In short, your character has attracted the attention of Death/a grim reaper/a shinigami/any other litany of macabre spirits...or your character is the shadow of death. Is your character not Death in vaguely human shape in canon but you want to play them as such? AU them! Everything else here is played a little fast and loose, after all.

Of course, all of this will leave you with more questions than answers: how did this love blossom? Is it unrequited or returned? How can the two characters be together if one is alive and the other is more than just dead? Isn't it against the rules for Death to love a mortal? What kind of shenanigans could this cause, from affecting mundanity to intimacy?

Warmest "Welcome Back"

Whether it's been for days, weeks, or months, you and your lover have been kept apart. But they have to have been desiring you madly all this time, right? So you've decided to put on a show for them that will blow their minds and make them want to never leave again. Your idea may be a sexy outfit or costume, you doing an incredibly alluring act, preparing them a wonderful atmosphere to come home to - or something that you never intended on going through with, but they walked in on you, anyway!

1. COMMENT WITH YOUR CHARACTER,
PREFERENCES, & WHAT "ROLE" YOU'D LIKE TO PLAY: THE ONE GIVING THE SHOW, THE
ONE COMING BACK, OR EITHER! THE MORE INFORMATION YOU INCLUDE, THE BETTER.

2. TAG OTHERS.

  UNintended



You know exactly what to expect: out there, in that big wide word, is the person who's just for you. A soulmate, maybe. A destined lover. The story's always the same. The princess falls for the prince, her knight and shining armor. The heroes will grow to love one another. Happily ever after.

Except, somehow, a chapter from another book got put into your tale.

You have the one you know you should be with, or you know where or who they are...yet somehow, somewhere, your heart got stolen by another. A heroic soul loves a bandit. Snow White is charmed by a dwarf instead of good-looking royalty.

So maybe you do have a choice. Will you follow your script and be with who the fates intend, or take a chance and go where your own desires lead?

— basically, with all the ~destined~ couples and SOULMATES4lyfe memes floating around out there, I wanted to do a #teamfreewill fuck destiny!!1 one.

  The Personal Hygiene Shipping Meme



Personal hygiene is just that - personal. By the time we've come to a point in our lives where we notice that the concept exists and we should be prudent about it, we can take care of ourselves. There are also many practical reasons why we don't involve other people in this process. We're not too keen on showing off parts to be cleaned that are private in most contexts, and there's definitely an ingrained aversion to showing so much soft, fleshy skin. Hot water or a sharp razor could spell dangerous with a capital D should they come into the hands of someone with a vendetta against you. No need to be extra vulnerable.


So, if you're involving another person in your cleansing routines, it must be someone you trust. Not only that, but it's most likely someone you're comfortable with and likely at least somewhat open to being intimate with. You may not be dropping all your clothing in front of them, but it's still you opening yourself up to touching and closeness unparalleled in more "usual" moments.

Established and burgeoning couples (or not-so-couples) can bond through this showing of care and good faith. Will you like being pampered and find the attention endearing? Or will things go terribly, terribly wrong?

...you never should have let them near that shaving cream.

  • Comment with your character and preferences.
  • Smut is not required. Mention if you want/don't want it.
  • Reply to others and use the RNG.
  1. Comfort: You've decided to pitch in a helping hand to get your partner to unwind, and warm water or suds may do the trick.
  2. Romantic: The sole purpose of this endeavor is to set a lovey-dovey mood. No shame here!
  3. It Started Out Platonic...: What a good pal you are, volunteering to give your friend a good scrub. Of course, you didn't count on the cute way she squirms as you scrub her back or how he blushes when you shampoo his scalp.
  4. No Choice: Currently, you're unable to clean yourself up. That means that you need assistance, and it might as well be the person you lov- tolerate the most.
  5. Open: You have trust issues. Actually, you have backlogs of trust issues. Still, you want to show the person you love that you're willing and trying to change for them, and what better way than letting down your walls and having the assist in your grooming?
  6. Shave: Whether it's your face, your legs, or...your other places you've decided to shave, there's a certain intimacy involved in letting your lover do it for you. Let's hope they won't leave you looking like you got into a battle with a book with the paper cuts to prove it.
  7. Reluctant: They want to get you clean. You don't want to show off your body at all. It's injured, it looks weird, what if they don't like it...
  8. Forced: You love them, you really do, but you won't kiss them if they continue to look like an unwashed hobo clown. You have to draw the line somewhere, and if they won't take action, you will.
  9. Beat Up: You've been trampled in a fight. Your partner isn't about to let you wallow around in your own mud and blood.
  10. Hair: Some find that there's nothing quite as soothing as getting their hair washed or brushed. Of course, those with more luxurious locks may find any hair care a burden, so the assistance is appreciated.
  11. Make Up: They think you're beautiful already. See how they'll paint you up when they get the chance.
  12. Unique: If you're not human, you probably have your own proceeders you have to do to keep all spiffied up. There are wings with stray feathers to pluck, horns on heads to polish, scales to shave down, all sorts of tasks! Introduce your ignorant (and most likely human) boyfriend or girlfriend to your world...and your pain.
  13. Accommodations: Those with disabilities or prosthetics may also have their own routines, and anyone who wants to be with them should learn how to pitch in.
  14. Sponge Bath: You don't have enough water to do this right or you just want to give them a nice rub and scrub with a gentle sponge or wash cloth.
  15. Wound Care: In order for wounds to heal, proper care must be taken. Bandages have to be changed and cuts cleaned out. It's certainly easier when you don't have to do it all by yourself.
  16. Together: You're both cleaning up, taking a bath, splish splash, in the same tub because there's no where else to go. This is the most likely smut option, even if, again, it starts off "platonic."
  17. Clothing: Don't forget that clean clothes are an important part of personal hygiene. Always make sure your partner has a nice, fresh outfit, even if it's to your taste and not theirs.
  18. I've Made a Terrible Mistake: Somehow, everything's now shit. This little experiment went haywire and you may be sporting anything from the worst hairdo of your life to a Columbian necktie.

PARTNERS IN CRIME MEME

You're madly, hopelessly in love. Or maybe you're just best friends. You just also happen to be a crime duo. Whether you're bank robbers, pulling off jewelry heists, going on spree murders, committing arson, stealing candy from babies, or whatever else, you do it together. The Bonnie to your Clyde, the Thelma to your Louise, the whatever criminal name to the other criminal name. If you go down, you're going down in a blaze of glory that will always be remembered. Maybe you're on the run. Maybe you're the authorities chasing after the pair of criminals. Can you catch them? Bring them in peacefully? You have to try no matter what.

• Top level your character. Include any details you might think are relevant. Or don't. As always, we're not the cops.

rare moment together

You're not lucky enough to be able to see the person you care for the most on any kind of regular basis. Instead, you have to sneak off from the fort, find time between missions, leave before the eve of battle, or even cross planets and solar systems just to be with them.

What will you risk to get to them? More importantly - what will you do together when you finally get this tiny sliver of time?

Arranged Marriage Turned More


To have and to hold, you said, till death do us part, all while the sharp, swinging pendulum of obligation hung overhead. But how could you have truly meant those words? This union has been tainted from the start, forever bearing the chains of an arranged marriage. It would be understandable if you couldn't bear to look at your new life partner, eternal reminder of your stolen future that they are, much less like them.
Much less love them...

Still, things can change.

You could realize that they are in the same boat as you or, that when compared to others around you,
they are the lesser of evils. Perhaps you even open up to the idea of a friendship; at the very least,
an alliance may be in order to become a power couple in a perilous world. From that innocent decision or sense of self-preservation, a new feelings sparks. Something like affection.

Something, you realize in the wake of speeding heartbeats, like love.

Will you acknowledge this? Can the two of you have a happily ever after - happier than if you'd met in another fashion - or will you hold firm in your distaste?

The Marriage Consummation Meme
a smut meme

The wedding bells have rung - or the correct sacrifices have been made, depending on your culture. Whatever the case may be, you're married now, and the night is yours. However, there is one expectation on you: it's time to consummate the marriage.

Whether you're in love, in this marriage because it was arranged, or absolutely in hate with your new spouse, you're with them now. Have you two been intimate before this, or is your first time...with them or first time period? Do you know what you want and are you full of lust, or do you have no clue what's going on? Maybe you even have to seduce your partner who wants nothing to do with this!

...or, most forbidden of all, you're not the one getting married to this person. You just have to be with them on their wedding night, because you want them no matter what!

( surprisingly gentle )

Because is there anything better than a dangerous, potentially deadly stoic whose one weakness is their sweet, harmless object of affection? Especially if the latter has the former wrapped around their finger, knowingly or otherwise.

To avoid tl;dr - suddenly, a wild bae approaches! Their attempt to turn you into a puddle of goo at the knees, whether purposeful or not, is very effective.

It's getting pretty serious, cop to it or not. You want to snag this person for your new best gal/guy, but you're in an old-fashioned world. Or you've got an old-fashioned mind stuck in a modern world. Or it's possible you just like the classics.

Whatever the case, it's time to pull out the stops, bust out the flowers, and take your honey dancing. Or something.

  unofficially official;



Dating...isn't what you'd consider the two of you doing. You're just close. Close enough to spend time together, do things you both enjoy, eat together, talk about problems, cuddle, and kiss, possibly. And you don't do most of these things with other people.


Okay.

Okay, so maybe you are dating. But do you need to disclose this fact to everyone else, or at least acknowledge it amongst yourselves -

If you even realize it, that is. It's possible this whole "a couple" status has snuck up on you. Theoretically, at least.

 Natural Enemies Shipping Meme



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 Historical Romance (AU) Meme



(also including high fantasy, steampunk, and sci-fi because why not)

There's nothing quite like a good historical setting to take a tale of sordid romance to the next level. Perhaps it's the setting that seems so separate from our own time, thus making the whole thing feel more exotic or epic. Besides, the codes of attitude! The costumes! The traditions! The disease and early death!

Uhhh, did I mention the costumes?

HOW TO PLAY

  • This is a meme for shipping in historical (and also fantastical by historically based) settings. Pretty self-explanatory.
  • Post with your character, information, and preferences.
  • There are TWO things you can RNG here, because everybody loves some RNG. First is time period, second is prompt. Two for the price of one.

  23. The Space Age Future
Prompts:

  1. Spoils of War: You've been taken of your home and made either an unwilling companion or, even worse, a slave. Yet something is beginning
  2. Nefarious Intentions: Whether it be from jealousy or a desire to ruin someone, you want to make this person - perhaps with an equal or higher station - desire you, then you will destroy them.
  3. Inherited You: Often times, in the past, positions came along with the spouse of the deceased or disposed.
  4. Must Be Married: In order to get your inheritance, secure your title, produce an heir, or please a parent, you have to marry someone. Anyone will do, won't they?
  5. Arranged: This marriage is one you didn't even get to pick. Hopefully, you'll at least like the person.
  6. Servitude: You live to serve, but you also love the one you serve, perhaps from afar.
  7. Love at First Sight: Okay, admittedly, you have't seen many people because this is before easy travel, but you know this person is the one. What can you do about it?
  8. Learn to Love: The two of you are thrust together. The most you can do is hope to love each other in time.
  9. Promised to Another: You two are head over heels, and things couldn't be better...except for the fact that one of you is supposed to belong to somebody else.
  10. Seduction for Gain: In a time where women and the underclass were treated very poorly, there's no shame in trying to advance your station. Use whatever means necessary.
  11. Courtly Love: Between a knight and a noble, a bard and a noble, a king and his lady, etc etc etc. The kind of love spoken of in ballads.
  12. The One Above All Else: The one who got away...or the one who was never yours. Maybe they are a beloved friend, a special person you must protect, or that flickering green light far from you, but you love them all the same.
  13. For the Man Who Has Everything: You are powerful, strong, well-connected; you have everything except for someone to share it with. Perhaps that will change.
  14. Rescue the Maiden Fair: Or the "man" fair. Surely they will show gratitude.
  15. To Honor You: Maybe if you win a great victory, slay a dragon, or invent a combustion engine, senpai your beloved will notice you.
  16. Cultural Differences: When uniting two cultures through a marriage or union, culture clashes are bound to occur.
  17. Class Difference: The poor street urchin who loves the child of the bourgeois or the serf who longs after the lord's only daughter. Is there anything more heartbreaking?
  18. Healing the Broken: Life is hard, and perhaps one of you has bore the brunt of it. It falls on the other to bring life back into their life.
  19. Met Before: You knew this person long ago. Have your feelings for them changed?
  20. Courtship: You will do this the proper way, with meek handholding and chaperoned dances. Or you may have no other choice.
  21. Secrets and Magic: Your romance is further muddled by the existence of strange creatures and the magical forces. Maybe one of you is even a magician, but you can't let anyone know, even the person you adore.
  22. Torn Apart by War: On the same side or Romeo and Juliet-ing it, the constant fighting is ruining your war.
  23. Forbidden: You took an oath, a vow, or some other kind of promise not to love. Before your eyes, that's all shattering.
  24. Rule by My Side: You want power and you want this person to be your consort, and will do anything to get both.
  25. I've Grown Accustomed to Your Face: PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, or: I hated you but now I've grown to want you like no other.
  26. I'll Wait for You: You will wait for the person you love. Back in the day, this was pretty serious, considering the death rate from the plague. And dysentery.
  27. A Promise Made: You told them you would make them yours and nothing would stand between you. You intend to make good on that promise, no matter what goddesses you have to face, monsters you have to kill, or political situations you must maneuver.
  28. First Contact: You are the first envoy of your kingdom or race. Making a good impression and not breaking any hearts are both good calls.
  29. 1.21 Gigawatts: "But I'm not even from this time period!" Instead, you're the modern guy or gal who fell through time. You must fit in...and not break everything by falling in love with the knight or samurai.

 ( what you can never have )



When two people come together in a relationship, it's a beautiful thing. What can be wrong with love, right? Right? Except when the union is completely and totally wrong, for whatever reason. Then things can get a little messy.


How To Play

1. Comment with your character, listing their name, canon, etc, along with any preferences.
2. Comment around to others, using the RNG to determine the scenario. It doesn't have to be a lovey-dovey relationship, obviously. There can be hate, sorrow, lust, whatever.
3. Thread! Have fun! Do things!

Scenarios

1. Warring Factions: You belong to rival organizations, armies, clubs, etc. Whatever it is, you're not on the same team.

 

2. Soldiers on the Battlefield: Or maybe you are on the same side, but this is the wrong time and the wrong place. Plus, attachments cause distractions.

 

3. Bodyguard and the Guarded: Just like the movie with Kevin Costner! One of you has been hired to protect the other for some reason, and feelings are starting to grow. Are you a professional and cut things off, or do you give in?

 

4. Prince/ss and Knight: Similar to the above, but with a whole 'nother level of wrong...one of you is royal. Courtly love is okay; still, don't forget your place.

 

5. Enemies: This vendetta is personal, and you totally hate this person! Don't you? Perhaps you're maybe just rivals, or something as serious as superhero and villain.

 

6. Family: The ultimate taboo. This person is related to you, so there's no way you should indulge this desire, even if it's the most pure love there ever was.

 

7. Age Difference: The years between you should keep you both at bay, but it's easier said than done.

 

8. Teacher/Student: Teachers and students have a unique bond, and to corrupt it is a dangerous thing. Will you dare to act on emotions that could put you both in a destructive place?

 

9. Already Spoken For: One or both of you are already involved with someone else, but the heart wants what the heart wants. Just know that you can't have your cake and eat it, too.

 

10. Not Compatible: Your personalities or jobs make it so it's hard for you to be together.

 

11. Not Compatible...in Another Way: You're both different species, which means you're either afraid to take your relationship to a physical level or you can't because of differences in biologies.

 

12. Not Ready for Love: You took a vow (or celibacy, of chastity, of dedication), you're married to your work, or you just don't want to be involved with anyone. Too bad!

 

13. Rich and Poor: One of you has the money while the other is from more modest means. Can the 1% and the 99% ever be bedfellows, literally?

 

14. Hurt Before: Your heart has been broken, and maybe there's been no time to heal. But here you are.

the TRUE LOVE SMUT meme



The cliche of each person having one great love in their life is often overblown; after all, not everyone has a great and epic relationship, nor do they need it. But it can be fun to play out a love that cannot be spoken, just like any strong emotions are interesting to explore. And when words aren't enough? There are always actions.

Simple, pure, and straightforward, this meme is about people truly in love letting that affection become physical. It's a smut meme, though more emphasis is put on the relationship rather than the raunch...or there could be focus on both. Whatever approach you take is up to you. It's as basic as that, and the perfect excuse to play something sweet, romantic, or passionate.

HOW TO PLAY

  • Comment with your character and preferences.

  • Reply to others.

  • Roll the RNG for prompts or come up with your own.

PROMPTS

  • The First Time - You're in unknown territory, yet it feels so good! Your affection for this other person makes it all the better, too.

  • First Relationship - You've been with someone before. You've never been in a relationship, though, and that takes things to a new level.

  • So Innocent - The experience difference makes you feel guilty, but it also makes you want to dote on your partner.

  • Kissing - The only thing that can draw attention away from the friction between bodies is the touch, touch, touching of lips together.

  • Date - After spending a wonderful time together, there's no other way to end things than with a bang.

  • Touch - Gentle touches, sexy touches, just reach out and touch the one you love.

  • Not So Usual - You're stoic, brooding, so above petty emotions, maybe even an asshole. Still, you love somebody and there are cracks in your facade.

  • Flirt - What's a little playful affection or innuendo between lovers?

  • Naughty - You really shouldn't. They're busy, you're in a inconvenient location, whatever the situation may be. You really shouldn't have your hands on them...but you do.

  • Changed by You: Your love for someone has made you a better person, perhaps even driving you to turn over a new, nicer leaf. Or maybe we shouldn't get ahead of ourselves, right?

  • Your Attention Please - A surefire way to get someone's attention is to show them how nice you can be.

  • In Denial - You don't love this person. There's no way in the world. So what if you love being with them and love being intimate - wait, no. Like. Only like, no love.

  • Bravado - For what you're lacking in skills, you make up for enthusiasm and the gumption to not admit to your lack of skills.

  • Implicit Trust - Trust is hard to earn, and they've earned yours, even if you thought that impossible.

  • Lap Pillow - What a place to lay your weary head. It'll only get better with a tilt.

  • Explosive - Nobody expects you guys really love each other. After all, you argue, argue, argue!

  • UST Resolved - All that tension is finally relieved and you're in each others' arms

  • Out of My League - Why do they bother with you? They're so high, so out of what should be your reach. For that, they're due your worship.

  • You're Beautiful - In your eyes, you love is perfect. Maybe they'll believe you if you say it while you're in the throes of your lovemaking?

  • Gift - They deserve the best

  • Silliness - Once two people get close beyond words, keeping up appearances isn't as important. Sex can be fun and ridiculous.

  • Something for Nothing - You are being selfless, giving your partner all the pleasure and expecting nothing back.

  • Slow - There's no need to rush. Both of you are taking your sweet time tonight, savoring every part of each others' bodies.

  • Impassioned - Rough, quick, like a man dying of hunger, you have to have them. Still, there's love here that's impossible to describe.

  • A Helping Hand - Get them off with a touch that's more than soft.

  • Hurt - It may not heal their wounds, but your offering might help them mentally recover.

  • Tears - You're so overwhelmed with emotions that you can't hold back, no matter that you're right near an orgasm. Or maybe it's because of that.

  • Admission - It's your love confession. Make it count. Who cares that you've just slid some fingers inside of them?

  • Make Up - For when "I'm sorry"s just don't cut it.

  • Forgiven - They've held a grudge against you for years. Now, it all seems like dust in the wind as you come together once again.

  • Cuddle - Nothing sexual here...unless there is. It will be hard to ignore how turned on you are as you snuggle close.

  • Quick - Just because you have to hurry things up doesn't make it bad.

  • Dancing - Dirty dancing or slow, sensual steps.

  • Dress and Undress - Get help putting on those difficult clothing items, and don't forget to get help taking it off.

  • Holding Back - We always hurt the ones we love, but you don't want to do it while you're in bed and actively not intending to.

  • Good Clean Fun - The water's warm, you both are dirty, and a relaxing soak awaits. At least until you figure out what's even better than lounging in bubbles.

  • Teaching You -

  • Opposites Attract - You'd think that you guys would never ever agree. They like the movies, and you like TV. Still, your bond is stronger than your differences.

  • Forbidden - Societal divides, relation, age differences, power discrepancy, vows, or being involved with someone else are roadblocks to being completely content with this love. No one else can understand what's between the two of you.

  • Proposal - You want them to marry you. Well, at least you're on your knee...s.

  • Healed Trauma - Traumas don't usually completely heal. The companionship and reliability of someone else, however, may be a step in the right direction.

  • Kept Up at Night - The nightmares won't let you sleep. Perhaps your partner can soothe you to dreamland with their presence.

  • Distraction - Take your or their mind off the bad things in life and focus on what you have behind closed doors.

  • Switch it Out - The top takes the bottom and the bottom takes the top.

  • Can't Get Enough - You're so taken by what they can do to you, you want seconds. Thirds. Fourth.

  • You're My Weakness - They're you're weakness, so you have to protect them.

  • Blow My Mind - You want to leave them a blubbering, thoughtless mess.

  • Stay in Bed - All you want to do is lay between the sheets, sleep, and find other activities for two.

  • Playing House - You may not be able to be domestic all the time, but there's some kind of solace in pretending at husband/wife, husband/husband, or wife/wife.

  • Soon to Depart - It's the last time you'll see each other for a while. Give them one for the road.

  • Reunited - After a long absence, there's tons to catch up on.

  • Tragedy - Both of your hearts are torn, and you have to find comfort in each other.

  • Kink - They've always wanted to try something forever, and you love them enough to indulge them.

  • Hurts So Good - You'd never hurt them unless they want it.

  • Last Time - For whatever reason, despite the fact that you'll always love and pine for them, this will be the last time you can be with them.

a dark shipping meme

tl;dr version — a meme that explores a shipping concept from a darker perspective. Characters, brainwashed by losing their memories and other scientific deviancies, are bonded with their "lifemate," who they're said to be created for. They must live together and grow co-dependently close, all while the machinations behind the scene are twirling like cogs in order to move them closer to the darkness.

Anyone can be manipulated. You just need to work at them through the right person.

You wake up, groggy and confused, in a white room that is expansive and furnished with all white furniture, yet pristine. The white is probably so bright that it hurts your eyes and you may have to blink for a moment. It doesn't help that your body is swathed in white, too; you're wearing what appears to be a modern day white cotton scrub top and and bottom. In fact, the only spot of black on you is on the palm of your hand: right in the center, there's a barcode. Under that, in neat, angular print, is a name. Your name.

It's a good thing it's there because otherwise, you wouldn't know it. Your memories are gone. You don't know how you got here, why you're here, or much of anything else. Soon, however, you'll know that you're not alone. The other person is not you're captor, that much is for sure. They're clothed like you are and look just as confused. They even have the exact same barcode as you, down to the last number. The only thing that differs is the name under it.

But the room is furnished for one alone. One bed, one couch, one bathroom. You two don't know much, yet you know you are two. The secret is soon made clear by a voice over a hidden loudspeaker. The voice claims to be a scientist and announces the purpose of you being here. This is the first day of your existence, they say, and you two were created together and for each other. Lifemates, the term is. You both are the perfect scientific experiment, and let man not tear asunder what science hath created.

And that's it.

Accept this or not, there seems to be little recourse. The room has no visible entrance or exit. The walls don't budge if you hit them. Nothing works. The only time anything changes is when food is brought in, but neither of you have ever seen that occasion. No matter how long you stay up, you always fall asleep when food or other necessities come in. Could that have something to do with the soft, soothing voices and pleasant feelings that sometimes come when you least except them?

You and your "lifemate" may be mutually scared, get along swimmingly from the start. It doesn't matter. Eventually, you'll become closer and closer. Lines will get crossed. Boundaries will get obliterated. Maybe it's because they're the only lifeline you have. Or maybe, maybe what the "scientist" said is right. You're created for each other, and this is your natural state. Whatever the case may be, as time goes on, you want to stay with them, even if you still want to leave this place. After all, how could you leave the side of the person you've spent your whole life with.

Yet there's something in your mind that tells you there's wrong here. Sometimes, at night, you'll get images of another life, and later, during the day, you'll feel hints of an existence you've never known. Luckily, you have your lifemate to get you through this.

HOW TO PLAY

  • Basically, your character has no memories and are power-nerfed...for some options.
  • Reply with your character and preferences. Also be sure to mention whether or not you'll play smut, since some options are smut-tinged.
  • Reply to others!
PROMPTS

  1. First Meeting — You've just woken up and are getting the news.
  2. Learning about Each Other — Though you don't have memories, you still have personalities to navigate.
  3. Distaste — You don't like each other. How are you created for each other at all?
  4. Guard — While one sleeps, the other looks on. Why does their sleeping form bring up so much fondness?
  5. Unwittingly — You didn't want to give in, yet you find yourself being pulled in by your companion and growing protective of them.
  6. Closeness — Soft words grow into soft touches, embraces, tiny kisses, and a gentle (relatively) haven.
  7. Initiating — The first time you're going to be intimate, or the five millionth time, it will be on your own terms.
  8. Need You Now — You've grown reliant on your "lifemate" to keep you calm or even take care of you, whether you want to admit it or not. You may even need them beside you to sleep or
  9. Physicality — Your relationship has a full-on carnal aspect. What else is there to do?
  10. Twisted by Science — Your emotions have been tampered with to make you love your lifemate more because you weren't responding.
  11. Pure Love — Despite the situation, what you feel for your companion is real. You truly love them, even if you haven't told them.
  12. Connection — In some cases, lifemates have been known to have a mental connection, where they can share some thoughts and all pain.
  13. Aphrodisiac — The sexual bonding between the two of you isn't progressing in a way it should, so one or both of you is injected with a potent aphrodisiac. That should do the trick.
  14. Implanted Memories — You remember happy times with your lifemate. Surely those memories are real.
  15. Flashbacks — You remember another life, and it doesn't match up with what you know.
  16. Nightmares — Waking up in the middle of the night, sweating in fear is never a wonderful experience. Luckily, you have someone close by to cheer you up...if you want to worry them with your dreams.
  17. No One but You — You've decided to ignore the scientists and make the best of what you have, carving out a little life together.
  18. Scientist — You're not actually a lifemate, you're a scientist! However, you've developed pesky feelings for one of your subjects.
  19. Breeding Stock — You're not humans, you're animals, and the scientists want you to breed as such.
  20. Protect — You'll fight off anyone to protect your lifemate, scientists included.
  21. Power Surge — What are these powers that have suddenly appeared? You've never had these! Your lifemate should stay back, lest you hurt them.
  22. Training Together — New equipment has been put into your living quarters and you've been told to learn to work together perfectly. Whether you're both fighters or one is a fighter and the other their handler or healer, you must fit as well in battle as you do in life.
  23. The Veil Falls — The curtain is raised, and you see that you're not an experiment. You had a life that's been stolen from you. Your mate had one, too. What will you do with this new knowledge?
  24. Wish to Forget — Instead of being angry or glad about your past existence, you're horrified by what it was like and only want to live in the now with your lifemate.
  25. To Garner a Response — The scientists want to see how you'd respond if your lifemate was hurt.
  26. A Task Given — In order to guarantee the safety of your lifemate, you have to do a certain task. Maybe hurting someone else isn't a big deal as long as you get what's yours back.
  27. A Taste of Freedom — You and your lifemate are allowed out, but you have a job to do.
  28. Separated — You've been disobedient and as such, you two will be punished by separation.
  29. Escape — There's a tiny window of opportunity to get out. Take it. But no one gets left behind, even if you would have before.
  30. Separate Ways — Now that you're out, there's no reason to stay together, right? You're not really lifemates, right?
  31. Can't Be Without You — ...only not, because now you're dependent on each other, and you can't live a life alone or with another.
  32. Hard Time Adjusting — It's different living in the free world when you're used to being in a completely controlled habitat.
  33. Living a Peaceful Life — You've managed to get past all the challenges and are now living a normal life together. But did the scientists ultimately win? After all, you are still "lifemates"...and there's still the trauma to deal with...
  34. ANYTHING ELSE or WILDCARD OPTION!!!

the lovemaking smut meme

Love oftentimes means softness, kindness, and attention to the one you care for. Loving sex is no exception. We have a lot of "fucking" memes here: mid-fuck, pre-fuck, post-fuck, so on and so forth. We don't, however, have a lot of making love memes.

And basically all of this has been an awkward segway into a gentle smut meme! No fucking here, just tender touching and lots of care.

"But my character is a huge jerk and/or has the emotional range of a braindead pet rock and/or only fucks like an animal in the sack," I hear you scream from the streets. Not to worry, there are plenty of prompts that can turn even the coldest heart to mush...or there's some negative ones, too. Besides, can't LOVE change anything? That's fancy talk for "it's a meme, go with it."

So break out the Al Green and rose petals...or don't. Because that stuff can be kind of cheesy.

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.

  15. Focus All on You: It's time for a treat, and you want to be all give and no take.

  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.

"You and I will never be a great love story. And that's okay! Let's see what kind of story we'll be."

A meme for the small, subtle attractions, pull between persons, enjoying each other's company, long looks across crowded rooms, "what ifs," subdued acknowledgements, and never-becoming-what-could-be-s. Or perhaps, more tragically, never-realizing-what's-there-s.

After all, not every love story is a grand romance.

BEAUTY IS ONLY SKIN DEEP
a (s h i p p i n g) meme



It all goes so well when people don't see you, so it's easier to hide away. And why wouldn't you want to keep away from the eyes of others? You're hideous to the world at large, despite your own opinions of yourself, no matter if you're human or otherwise. You don't appear to be anything most would want to be around, much less befriend. If you're human, your appearance could be chalked up to mutation, a freak chance at birth, or an an accident later in life; if you're not human, you just happen to exist in a place where those who look like you would never be accepted by the mainstream. Maybe it's not even your whole appearance, though. Your point of contention could be something like an injury or prosthetic that makes you feel not whole, though it may be insignificant in the view of the kind and open-minded. There's more comfort in covering that up and not letting anyone get close.

In any case, you don't expect someone to love you, be attracted to you, or even want to be with you, especially a beautiful someone. Yet somehow, somebody does...or, at least, it seems that way. Will this new development last? Can you put your demons at bay long enough for it to do so?

PROMPTS

  1. Meeting | You've never seen anyone who doesn't balk at your appearance, but they don't.
  2. Growing Close | It starts as a friendship or an alliance, the grows to- more?
  3. Jealousy | There's no way they could see you as anything special. Surely, they have someone more handsome or beautiful in their sights.
  4. Realizing Feeling | At first, you didn't realize how your heart was feeling just by them being around, but now it's becoming clear: you're falling for them.
  5. Can't Tell Them | You'll ruin your bond with them should you tell them how you really feel. They'll be disgusted, so you'll keep mum.
  6. Touch | They touch you without a hint of distaste, which could be a big plus compared to what you usually deal with.
  7. No Difference | Actually, they can't tell that you're different, due to lack of vision or something similar. All they can discern is your personality.
  8. The Way It Used to Be | You didn't use to look this way, and it's hard to come to terms with your new look and how it affects
  9. Confession | You can't keep in your emotions anymore, or they accidentally get revealed.
  10. Good | They share your feelings! You never could have imagined this, but you couldn't ask for more.
  11. Bad | ...oh, you thought they...oh, they're so sorry.
  12. Scared | "Friendship" nor a "relationship" was never on their mind. In fact, they're scared of you.
  13. Cruel | All of their supposed kindness was actually just them using you for their benefit. To think, you really believed they cared about you!
  14. Defense | They step on the line for you, standing up to those who'd consider you a monster or somehow lesser.
  15. Uncovered | You're exposed and they can see everything you've tried to hide. You want to crawl into a hole and die. They want to keep you from feeling that way.
  16. Shouldn't Be | People oppose your relationship, and there may be some points to the arguments.
  17. Intimacy | Even being close, which most take for granted, could be a new and possibly uncomfortable event for you.

romantic farewell meme

No matter how much you adore someone, you can't stay with them all the time. Sometimes, even, they have to leave your side for a significant period - maybe forever, in a worst case scenario. Whether their destination is life-threatening (maybe a giant death meteor) or to their benefit, it's important for you to put your own misgivings on hold so you can see them off; you may live to regret it if you can't say a proper goodbye. Perhaps, if they don't even know how you feel about them, it would be a tragedy for everyone.

Swallow your pride, try to bury those doubts, and let them know how much you care for them and make them feel loved on the road ahead.


  • Comment with your character and preferences.

  • People who reply to you will have their character be seeing yours off, as your character is going to battle, a journey, a mission, or even just on a vacation, who knows?

  • Do it all - tender moments, kisses, favorite activities, promises, threats. Maybe somebody should confess their love or similar feelings for the other, eh, fuckass?

  • There may be sex involved (after all, this is the last time the characters will see each other for a while), so you'll want to say if that's not your thing.

  • Thread things out.
