HUG MEME

 

- Put up a thread with your character, fandom, and any prefs (if applicable) and wait for someone to tag in with hugs!

- Go to other threads, either pick the number you want or go to RNG.

1. Friendly hug - this person is your good pal, and you just wanna give them a fond squeeze to let them know.

 

2. Romantic hug - you just want to be closer, so wrap your arms around them, maybe rub their back some...

 

3. Bear hug - maybe you haven't seen them in a while, so how about a giant hug that lifts them off their feet

 

4. Hug from behind - surprise them, guess who?! or maybe they're having a bad day, cheer them up.

 

5. Awkward hug - maybe it's on accident, but whatever the case is, you can't help but feel a little nervous about hugging them.

 

6. Reluctant hug - whoever this person is, you have to hug them, better make it quick!

 

7. "I'm sorry!" hug - actions speak louder than words, will this person get the message?

 

8. Give a little extra hug - give them a kiss with it, cheek, shoulder nuzzle, whatever - but let the hug linger a little!

 

9. Don't WANT a hug - make them see sense! Cling, and don't let go for anything oohcookiegimme! - if you're the hugged, try to get loose. Or maybe you'll give in!

 

10. Random or other kind of hug - pick the choice you like best, or make up your own!

Scanty | Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt

[ranty]

5/9/10/how badly can i mess this up

[teablossom]

[Gold ribbons burst from the ground to hug Scanty tight. So tight it'll hold her perfectly still, if she doesn't move fast. And a few feet behind, a girl jumps down, a musket clutched in her hands. Ready to aim.]

I'm sorry I can't give you a chance to move, but I'd prefer to end this quickly.

[She's already fought a handful of familiars and two witches today. She can't waste energy on this strange-looking third one.]

it's not "messing up", it's "innovation"

[ranty]

[ WHOA THERE, BADTOUCH something is invading her personal space. Scanty may have actually squeaked when those ribbons attacked. (She will never, however, admit as much.) ]

Manners are rare among those who'd violate innocent pedestrians. I'll credit you that much, at least.

[ It'll be taken into account when she sues that fancy dress right off of your butt. Whoever you are. ]

yes- clearly i can "make it work"

[teablossom]

[-curious. Aside from how smooth that comment was, she actually spoke. No witch she's ever seen could talk.

Mami lowers her weapon a bit more, relaxing her ribbons to hold tight but not squeeze.]

That isn't right- Who are you?

i believe in you

[ranty]

I could inquire the same of you. Wherever did you purchase that unfortunate attire?

In any case, you're dreadfully underinformed. For the Demon Sisters' reputation to not precede its elder member...why, such ignorance shouldn't be possible! Was our public relations campaign insufficient?

[ Though Scanty would strut right into someone else's canon without noticing the terrain shift, so....her own information might not be accurate. ]

[teablossom]

[-this is quickly degrading to "unpleasant" again, in a rather different sense.

Mami just levels an uncommitting look for the insult, and breezes right to the point.]

I've never heard anything about any "Demon Sisters" at all, so I would say so. That doesn't explain what you're doing here.

[Says the girl holding a woman up with ribbons. But this random back alley of convenient canon ambiguity is an odd spot for a run-in.

...and where is the witch she was actually sensing?]

[ranty]

[ Shoot, talking isn't working. Scanty scowls and begins to struggle a little. ]

Ignorant and insolent, a double threat. You mustn't be popular at social occasions.

I happen to have purchased this particular loca---

[ Something is moving behind Scanty. Something that's just hit her with a wave of dread so harsh she's actually stunned speechless. ]

--oh?

[teablossom]

I'm sorry for the trouble, but that's no...

[Hmm? Well. There you have it.

Mami's gun is back in hand, and she shoots right at Scanty--

Just as a colorful scribble thing flies in front of her, making it explode with an odd, loud noise that shakes the ribbons holding Scanty up.]

[ranty]

[ Wait wait what -

Scanty dodges on impulse, ducking out of the way. Depending on how tight she's being held, that might be enough to gain her freedom.

Either way she's hurling insults. ]

Excuse me?! How could you discharge long-range firearms at this kind of range? That's extremely dangerous, you know!!

[teablossom]

You'd be feeling worse than a bad shock if I didn't.

[And Mami does mean feeling- But woe, she's still being so rude, looking around for any other potential problems instead looking where she's talking.

If she were, she might have noticed the lady fidgeting enough to get loose, with time for more than a stumbled response. She'd tied Scanty pretty high up, after all, and she re-twines the ribbons around her as soon as she catches her falling.

Too bad it'll be too late, and just soften the impact of landing, right on the poor girl.]

/godmodes the scenery for maximum drama, if that's ok

[ranty]

A-ta---!!

[ That wasn't supposed to be a word, nope. Scanty just makes a lot of noises.

She sort of bounces in place as she hits the ground, trying to brush the ribbons back off herself (while also trying to reach for her skirt. It wouldn't do to flash anyone, even a boorish stranger). ]

Honestly...such treatment is hardly -

[ ....why is the environment starting to change. ]

/ooooo dear, what are you up to

[teablossom]

[Mami just rolls back, stopping kneeling on her feet as she realizes... Something's up.

And so a group of muskets slide from her skirt as she stands up, and reaches for one.]

You'd best be ready to run.

/that depends - how in the mood are you for smarmy ladies packing heat

[ranty]

[ Did you just - oh no you didn't (yes you did) - but you're a human, that shouldn't be -

Whatever, two can play that game. Scanty's hands come up from her skirt each twirling a revolver of their own. ]

As previously mentioned, I've purchased this area. Trespassers possess no right to bandy vague threats.

[ Nor does the scenery have any right to go all abstract art on her. Scanty can't stand abstract art! ]

Take this mess along with you when you depart.

/quite necessarily in the mood - it's mandatory!

[teablossom]

[-what is this? Is this woman some sort of magical girl herself? Mami just couldn't believe it- Not with that look and manner.

Well, not so much the manner. Other girls "claimed" areas, after all.]

I didn't bring this along- I followed it here. And if you want me gone now, you won't be around long to enjoy your "area".

[Not unless those guns packed more than your everyday bullets.]

[ranty]

Cheeky threats from an intruder. Watch and learn!

[ Something shifts behind her. Scanty whirls and fires, riddling a nondescript glob of paint and scissors with bullets. She seems to quite be enjoying the violence. ]

You see? Nothing's impervious to demonic artillery! Why, it even strengthens our allies when directly appli----

[ Her allies, the Ghosts, are made of the lingering despair and frustration of departed humans. So in a perverse melding of canons, the blob on the ground suddenly triples in size. ]

.....ohh.

[teablossom]

[-by that logic they're both intruders here.

Mami wouldn't say so, but she's still knocked out of the thought by the display. Not bad, and further support of her "strange shoujo" theory...

Until her efforts bear bizarre fruit. Did she say demonic?]

Please step back. [And it's the best warning she's going to get, since Mami starts shooting the second she has an opening, using up all four muskets in rapid fire, hoping to take the thing down.

Or at least slow it to give her and Scanty a chance to retreat.]

[ranty]

[ She'd point out your dullness in not realizing her identity sooner, but according to canon no one ever figures out they're demons till it's pointed out, so. Even given the horns and the skin, you are not actually being that dense!

Scanty leaps to the side with a yelp, tired of screaming at you for endangering her person. What is this, what is this, what's going on?!

Sensing easy prey, the blob shudders, gathers itself, and charges. It's all but limping, yet still mobile.

And from the slithering sounds, it's bringing friends. ]

[teablossom]

[This one isn't going down easily. And with this added, odd turn, Mami hesitates to just outright bombard the thing.

So instead she makes a motion like she's shaking something from her sleeves, filling her hands with two more muskets and shooting towards the bottom of the thing.

Dead or tripped or slowed or not, she immediately turns to Scanty.]

You'd be safer behind me.

[ranty]

[ You got it, Mami. Though its friends are converging on it and merging to make the final boss at least of this encounter, unless you want someone who hasn't seen meguca in years to keep trying to npc a witch. You're almost but not quite out of the woods...

Scanty, for her part, is scrambling back to her feet and - combining her revolvers together into a shotgun, which she holds like a baseball bat in case of future assaults. ]

And force myself into debt with a showgirl? I'll take my chances against the slime...

[ Or so she says, but she's stepping back behind Mami pretty quickly, here. When confused out of her freaking mind, it's nice to fall back on inbred obedience. ]

then an offscreen coda can be arranged!

[teablossom]

[-this isn't good. She used up too much magic before they even met to waste a bombardment on the familiars. Not with a witch down the road. Not without risks, and she had company to mind.

Rude as it is.]

I admire your bravado, but sorry. I don't take chances with guests.

[That said, she's running off- drawing the ire and trail of the slime by stepping on one of the smaller ones. And if Scanty wants to follow- Well. There's those dratted ribbons again.

Except this time they've gathered to make a loose threaded ball around the demon, and solidified that way.]

[ranty]

Instead you pres--

[ Hey, don't run off before she's finished with her snappy comeback! That's a dreadful violation of several important rrrrrules.

Scanty does, indeed, attempt to pursue - she has a bone to pick with you, young lady, especially if you keep - ]

Oof!

[ Yeah, that was Scanty tripping and falling in a ribbon-ball. She struggles, trying to bring her hands up so that she can maybe try and use her guns - at least get one free -

If you return to see how your captive demon is doing, Mami, she'll be absolutely hopping mad. ]

[teablossom]

[Sorry, Scanty, there's no direct witness at all. Save for those little familiars that eventually take interest again. But the point of that ball is to keep them at bay, so they keep trying to slither up, only to get bopped back by some power as they try to creep in.

So it might be awhile, but eventually the ball fades away- right along with the familiars, the strange surroundings, and everything else. Instead she's back in that alley again, with Mami just a few feet away, walking a slow streak towards something on the ground.]

[ranty]

[ Scanty struggles to no avail, trying to make sense of the situation but mostly just feeling completely confused. This sort of thing isn't supposed to happen! She's always supposed to come out on top - or at least, have the slightest idea of what's transpiring.

When everything fades she collapses to the ground, still clutching her revolvers in either hand, trying to gather her frazzled nerves. Climbing to her feet, she points both barrels at Mami, but leaves her safeties on. ]

Careful, jelly-busted magician girl! Unless you want the back of your head to resemble a sieve, disarm yourself the moment you're finished.

[teablossom]

[-if she still had her musket conjured, that rude, rude demand would have resulted in a stand off. As it was... Well, it's no wonder she went stiff, and was slow about raising from a crouch and turning around.

Because her hands are full, one holding a grief seed, and the other her dimming soul gem. She clutches her fingers around it and tilts it from view, focusing on Scanty's guns.]

-it looks like I was a step ahead of you. Any other demands?

[ranty]

[ -- wow, that was fast. She didn't even see you put them back on...well, assuming yours even function the way hers do. She's seen stranger behavior from you today.

Placated but not satisfied, Scanty puts up her weapons. Completely disarming herself would, of course, be most unwise, but if you've had the decency to comply she at least can become slightly less threatening. ]

Provided you depart immediately, no. If property damage is later discovered, our lawyers will, naturally, keep in touch.

[ She offers the hint of a smile at that. How delicious it'd be to crush you beneath the long, overly-complicated arm of the law. It, unlike you, makes perfect sense! ]
