the CROSSOVER marriage meme
February edition


Strike up the church bells! Flower girls, hold that train high! What a massive ring! And the groom's best friends might as well forgot about seeing him at all for the next few weeks, because that dude is busy.

Busy BEING MARRIED. Like you are, now. Congratulations! There's one hitch in your marital bliss, however. The person you're married to is not from the same canon as you are.


THE RULES:
1. Comment with your character (you might want to put your character's name, canon, and any prefs you have in the subject header).
2. Reply to other characters from different canons ICly.
3. Anyone you reply to is now.... YOUR SPOUSE.
4. Bicker, coo, argue about how the wedding went or how the divorce is going, be domestic, or enjoy the many pleasures of the marital bed!
5. Remember, no canonmates!

meme wording shamelessly ganked from the_love_hotel's married meme, but gen'd up and crossover element added.

Sup, haters? You mad jealous you don't have your own badass cooking show? Well, now you can have one. So stop cryin' and start fryin'.

1. Respond with your characters.
2. People will respond to you, and your characters will be hosting a cooking show in the style of Epic Meal Time together.
3. Use the RNG to decide what food they'll be making. The person who responds can do the rolling, or you can roll straight off the bat. Does it look like I care, son?
4. Food and recipes behind the cut. Make them or stay home.

The Defenestration Meme
...it seemed like a good idea at the time.



de·fen·es·tra·tion
noun

the act of throwing a thing or especially a person out of a window: the defenestration of the commissioners at Prague.

• Post with your character.
• Reply to other characters.
• If you need a prompt, hit up the RNG.
• And kick ass and take names.

1. You are about to defenestrate yourself. Is this a suicide attempt? Is it merely because you need a quick exit and fortunately the building is only one or two stories tall so it's not that much in the way of defenestration? Well. Either way, you're about to throw yourself out of a window and somebody caught you in the act.
   
2. You're defenestrating your/someone else's belongings. Is it because it's a messy break-up? Is it a fit of rage? It doesn't matter, because unless someone actively stops you you'll end up defenestrating the contents of the entire room.
   
3. You're defenestrating/defenestrated a helpless NPC! Or maybe they're not so helpless. They could be an assassin or something.
   
4. You're defenestrating the person who replied to you! (In the event that person happens to be your long lost brother, your beloved mother, your one true love, or someone equally close to you, you may assume that mind control was involved.)
   
5. Come up with your own scenario!

THE RANDOM RELATIONSHIP MEME
"I love that word 'relationship'; covers all manner of sins, doesn't it?"


Step 1: Post a comment with your character's journal. Include the character's name and canon in the subject line.
Step 2: Take a look around until you find another character that you want to tag.
Step 3: Go here and roll for a number between 1 and 8.
Step 4: Follow the corresponding prompt and comment away!


1. Best Friends: Whether you've known each other since you were kids, or you've only known each other for a few months, you guys are absolutely inseparable. You can always make each other laugh, and are completely at ease with one another.

2. Husband/Wife: Maybe it's been fifteen years, or maybe it's been fifteen days. Either way, you two are spending your lives together, happily married. Or maybe...not-so-happily married?

3. Lovers: Maybe you two are married. Maybe you two are in a relationship! Maybe you two aren't supposed to be together at all. No matter what, you're in love, and you will show it, whenever you get the opportunity.

4. Strictly Business: An employer and employee, a master and servant, a prostitute and a client, or maybe just co-workers! You two are in business together somehow.

5. Childhood Sweethearts: You thought you'd never see them again, but here they are! You two have just become reunite, and it feels oh-so-good, but...you haven't seen them in so long...Who knows what they've been up to?

6. Secret Admirer: Maybe you're in love with them, or maybe you just think they're hot. Either way, they don't seem to realize how you've been feeling about them. Maybe it's time to confess.

7. Hate: They are the bane of your existence. If you never saw their ugly face again, you would be overjoyed. Sometimes you fall asleep at night sincerely wishing that they would die. You hate them, more than you have ever hated anything.

8. Wild Card: Your choice!

THE ABOMINABLY AWKWARD ACQUAINTANCES MEME

You're now stuck dealing with someone who you don't know very well, in a vaguely negative way at best, for the foreseeable future. Awkward. How do you handle it?

...you should know the drill by now! (And it will pierce the heavens.) You post, other people reply to you, you reply to other people, good times.

And if you're stumped on how to start, fire up the usual RNG and...

1) They're your ex's brand new significant other! And you're trapped in an elevator, you're stuck doing the drinks run for a party together, you're waiting in line and have a choice: deal with them, or go all the way back to the rear. (In the event that you're single, replace 'ex's brand new significant other' with something along similar lines: fellow competitor who won a competition you lost, fellow interviewee who got the job you didn't...)

2) They're your co-worker at your new job! You may define job liberally: you're mercenaries aboard a ship, bounty hunters, random warriors that the king of some nation pretty much smashed together and ordered to go forth and slay the big bad.

3) You don't know each other at all, but you're suddenly in very...very...very close quarters with them. The bus is packed and now you're practically grinding each other, soldiers were coming and you hid in a closet together, whatever. Added bonus if UST doesn't immediately spark up because someone (not saying who) could use a breath mint or whatever.

4) Aside from one embarrassing moment from the not-so-distant past, you don't know them at all and figured that the two of you would never meet again. You were wrong, and it looks like the two of you will be working together for the greater good...so quitting isn't an option. (Replace good with evil if you're a morally ambiguous sort.) And you'll be doing so for a very long time.
