Mortal and immortal meme

The Immortal & Mortal Romance Meme
You'll outlive this person, it's a given. Their lifespan compared to yours is but a speck, an ant in the eyes of a god. You're immortal - or, at least, extremely long-lived - and they're doomed to die. Yet, somehow, you've begun to love them. Will you nip this in the bud and try to cut things out from the root...or will you let yourself be set up for inevitable loss?

how to play;
  • Comment with your character and your preferences (ie, m/f, no smut, etc). Also, be sure to include what part your character will play, otherwise you become nearly impossible to tag.
  • Reply to others.
  • Use my prompts or make up your own.


prompts;
  1. unspoken: There's something between you that is more than platonic, and you both understand it though you've never discussed it.
  2. pursuit: Someone admits their feelings; an attempt at courtship may begin, though what qualifies as "courtship" or "dating" may differ between the two of you.
  3. push them away: You, the immortal, know you'll only watch the mortal die and no matter how you view them, you want them to look for someone better. So you'll try to drive them away from you.
  4. inexperienced experience: Despite your many, many, many years, you actually have no experience in romance...or in sex.
  5. unique show of affection: When you've been on this earth as long as you have, you may have ways to show your love that are beyond the norm.
  6. actually forbidden: Your long-lived race is forbidden from romantically fraternizing with the ones
  7. accept it: Damn all the consequences, you both know the risks. You want to be together.
  8. lovemaking: The obligatory smut option. Is it as you'd expect, or do your differences raise their heads here, too?
  9. differences: Speaking of differences, your cultures and your experiences sometimes clash. Do you work through them and learn from it or does one of you get frustrated?
  10. condescending: Despite your years, it's important to remember to not be patronizing to your partner.
  11. make the most: You only have a limited time together. Make every moment count.
  12. baby mine: The two of you have an offspring. Who do they take more after...and will they have their immortal parent's traits?
  13. come and go: A partner who has lived for centuries or longer may find themselves drifting away or finding they need to keep traveling as they always have, but they know there's always one place and one person they can return to.
  14. i watched you change: You can only watch them grow older and weaker. They may doubt your love now that they are not as young or beautiful as they once were. There is no need for that.
  15. the end of the line: Your love cannot keep them alive, but you will be with them in their last moments.

( the immortal one, of course! although she does have a 'human' form for people who want to play around with her being the mortal one, given that she's not really well known in the realm of gods...

in terms of her character, she's a very high energy, attaches to the person she deems as her One True Love real hard to the point of obsession and yearning (maybe a little yandere tendencies too, but shh.) but she's also an extremely empty person, trying to use the other person to fill in the hole in her heart. feel free to check our her profile for more info, and if you have any questions or want to plot further.

prompt-wise, i'm especially interested in 2, 4, 5, 8, and 15 but you can ask about others, too, if you'd like. )

[For all the hardship that was facing the Flamechasers, and the storm that swept through as Elysium Everlasting slowly but surely fell apart because of another Herrscher, she'd always felt like that pink elf was the closest thing to a caring hand amongst the more frigid or otherwise unfriendly surface attitudes she'd come across. To say nothing of Mobius and her constant pining for a mere rat for whatever experiments she could pull... Even as overbearing as Elysia tended to be, she was never outright malicious. After all, girls like her preferred their secrets. And Mei only really pried when she needed to.

...But after the rite that solidified her position as the Herrscher of Origin, and that final farewell, she sometimes wished she'd be able to see her again. Even if it was only in some dreamscape, she desperately wanted to keep speaking with her, to share all that happened since with her. To reconnect, as old friends would after so long.

Of course... she had no idea that reunion would be happening now, of all times.]


...is this...?

[...The familiar lounge seats. The emblem that sat at the other end of where she stood. That foreboding air that had since become so comfortable as she learned more of the Fire MOTHs and the story that they wove in the previous era.

...it couldn't have been anything else. And if this unmistakable place was where she was now, then that must mean...]
