the kitten meme

Oh my god, oh my god—no way! This is just too much! They’re cute, they’re furry, they make sure little noises and have the bad habit of making adorable videos and getting away with everything. That’s right, you have suddenly found a basket full of kittens! Can you handle all the cuteness? Or are you adopting one from a rescue organization? Maybe your cat has unexpectedly had kittens. Maybe you suddenly have cat ears or were turned into a kitten. With these magical balls of fluff, anything is possible.

The Lots of Kisses Meme

The Lots of Kisses Meme

It started with a simple four panel template on PIXIV where artists would draw their favorite characters kissing in different ways. From there, it became a DeviantArt sensation, spawning several permutations. But you want to know the truth? The challenges above each box can be used by RPers as prompts, too! That's where this meme comes in. Each of the prompts comes from one of the kiss meme templates or the many other related ones - including one bonus section of odds and ends!

Instead of using lines to draw a scene of two characters enjoying a cute smooch, use lines of prose. And have fun, most of all.

Make outs!

the adorable and/or awkward
first time make out meme!

Maybe you've saved the world or kickstarted the revolution, but you're still an teenager or a young person. Reaching out and touching somebody - and then touching them with your lips and hands going places that are not familial-friendly - is probably still new to you, if this isn't your first time. And it's gonna be awkward, no matter how much you dig the other person. Or maybe you're not a teenager, you've just had a life that doesn't involve much making out. You're busy, you're introverted, you're crazy. It happens. It's probably going to be awkward. Or maybe you're just an awkward person in general. Or you've got plenty of experience, but you're making out with someone who doesn't. Or you're making out with a teenage-

Never mind, too many "maybes." Let's get to the "definitelys."

There's going to be exploring, soft touches, accidental grabs, too much teeth, not enough lips or tongue, passion, desperate moments, attempts to be cool and composed, failures, confessions of emotions, and just adorable.

Definitely adorable. And maybe you'll get more than just second base...

...or not. Better focus on those lips, kiddo.

how do:
- comment with your character.
- comment to other characters.
- you can discuss any assumed cr you'd like to have, or just get to the make outs.
- make out.

Badasses don't get crushes

THE UNEXPECTED CRUSH MEME
aka the badasses and gruff dudes get crushes meme

aka the general crush meme

You're badass like a Winchester. Logical like a Vulcan. High strung like a shonen hero. High class like a Tolkien elf. Charming like Flynn Rider. Surly like a Homestuck troll or prince of all Saiyans. Crafty like Loki or Jack Frost. Or maybe, just maybe, you're tsundere as all hell. Whatever the case may be, you're too cool for and way above crushes. Except for the giant, schoolgirl crush they're nursing right now.

The crush could be could be someone like you, all badass or, or maybe those sweetie cuties you think are the only ones to get crushes. Now wouldn't that be funny? A grouchy bounty hunter over the moon with a borderline-disney princess? Perhaps not that stark of a contrast...unless you'd like to. You could always go for the more mild-mannered but still polite and friendly anchor for your hot-headed warrior or cruel maniac.

Two nice cutiepies getting together, or maybe a secretly nice guy or gal crushing on someone who'd bring that out in them? Perhaps an awkward introvert longing after a perky extrovert or two assholes just being blushy jerks all over the place! Really, though, I just wanted a silly crush meme. sometimes you just want these things, including lots of fluff and potential adorability, bizarreness, fun, and denials.

- Comment with your character and preferences. Feel free to include what you're looking for in particular OR a little bit about your character.
- Reply to others and use the RNG.

prompts

encouragement - You can't help crushing on this person because they boost your self-worth and make you feel like you're actually a decent person!!!

first date - It's a date! Or not. Maybe you're just at the skating rink, the intergalactic space station, or the five an dine at the same time.

badass with a crush - You're badass but you kind of want to just dote on that special person.

holding hands - Such a simple act that can make your heart pound.

acting like dorks and avoiding the questions - What it says on the tin.

impress - Hey, hey. Look at me, I'm awesome!

kiss - Happy kisses, cheek kisses, angry kisses, SHUTTING YOU UP kisses.

picnics - Get close to that special person while getting some good food.

hugs - You're so nice and soft.

denial - Feelings? No way. Let me repress those bad boys.

mean - Pull their pigtails because you like them.

unusually kind - You can't help but be really nice to the one you care for.

presents - Here, I brought you this necklace. Or - Here, I brought you the head of our enemies.

don't know how to act - I like this person?! WHAT DO I DO WHAT DO I DO OH GOD.

defending - Verbally or physically, you're standing up for your crush.

telling them - You're going to confess...if things don't keep going wrong.

oblivious - They don't know how you feel.

loving smut - The smut option, full of cuteness.

unrequited - Again, what it says on the tin.

the forbidden love between servant and master meme

the forbidden love between servant and master meme

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The Fish Out of Water Shipping Meme

the fish out of water shipping meme
( aka "the thor shipping meme" / cross-canon encouraged )

The main conceit of shipping memes, it seems, is that both characters exist in the same universe. But what about something that tosses that out the window for a minute, and lets you play with the implications of "crossover?" Here, you can play with someone from a different canon (or AU or radically different canonpoint) and enjoy shipping that's truly out of this world.

It can be hard enough being ejected from your own home - imagine being plucked away from your home world! This could be because of your own doing (say, you were banished for being too cocky), you were too evil or too ambitious to stay, or even due to an accident. Those temporal shifts can be a little much. Whether by design or by chaos, however, you end up in the same place...or, rather, a different place. Theoretically, this world could be very much like your own, with only a few minor changes, like a purple sky instead of a blue one or lion-demons instead of tiger-vampires. On the other hand, it could be completely different, anywhere from more technologically advanced or less so or even filled to the brim with bizarre creatures. They still use cars? What are those infernal beeping devices? Why does no one have feathers or gills? Needless to say, this could be overwhelming if you are possibly powerless and definitely alone.

But you're not alone. Someone, a native of this world, has ended up tangled into this whole affair with you, whether they want it or not. You can't turn that down. They're your only ally, your only anchor in this brand new world. Maybe, just maybe, they can show you a thing or two to help you back up on your feet. Or, best case scenario, back to your home! When you're out of the frying pan and into the fire, though, nothing is cut and dry. Everything about this world may not be so horrible - it may be fun, even - and this person you've ended up with, oh, they could be worse. In fact, you may be beginning to feel at home with them.

Remember. This is not your real home. You want to go back, don't you?

And what about the other party? Of course, you may be less than thrilled that you now are playing tour guide to what seems like a crazy person. Perhaps this was out of the kindness of your heart or you may be forced to play babysitter, but it all leads to you keeping an eye out on them. They have to be lying about all this! Sure, they may talk strange, unconsciously insult you, and act like the simplest things confuse them; that has to be an act!

...still, act or not, you're starting to see that there's more to them than their goofy ways and there's more to your feelings toward them than you thought.

how to play

This meme is inspired heavily by the first Thor movie and also a great deal by those romantic comedies where someone from the past goes into the future or vice versa.
Comment with your character and preferences. Don't leave your comment blank! Mention something about your character's world in the comment for the canon blind (ie, "ancient Greece" or "dystopia with kids killing kids - the Japanese version"). It doesn't have to be long, it can even be a few words! If you have any other ideas, include them.
Reply to others. Use the RNG - or not. Whichever you prefer.

prompts

arrival → You've just arrived...and someone has seen it. What's your impression? Good? Bad? Get the hell away from them? It may depend on why you're here in the first place.
not so different → Huh, this could be your own home in the universe, except for a few subtle changes. But those changes stand out.
different time → The place you've ended up is either much more advanced or much more primitive than you're used to.
different world → They breathe oxygen? Where is their night vision?
magical moment → See the gif. Essentially, it's that moment of interest before everything goes absolutely wrong.
disbelief → So, they says they're an ancient Roman or a magic sky god. Did they hit their head?
argument → No, no, no. You're not going anywhere until we get you some clothes and some help.
forced to take them in → You have no other choice but to take this person in. You were either charged with the task or feel guilty.
offer of shelter → You actually want to take them in out of the kindness of your heart.
depowered → Were you a powerhouse before? Well, now you're an average joe. That'll teach you.
misunderstanding → Here, we don't walk around in loin cloths, draw swords, or barely bathe or eat toothpaste. We also don't ride dogs, either.
friendly fun → Being around here isn't always bad. You get to see new sights, taste new foods, and make new friends. Your milage may vary on the last one.
introduced traditions → Time for the newcomer to show their host something from the old country, so to speak, or the reverse.
romantic moment → Dancing or sitting under the stars or your own preference. Go wild and be creative!
showing you care → They have helped you out a lot since you've arrived. Perhaps you can return the favor by lending a hand or solving a problem?
the romantic shift → The typical turn of events where the two of you begin to see each other in a different light.
not my type → Your usual type is more glamorous or more...possessing of gills, but the bond between you two endears them to you.
jealousy → The newcomer misunderstands the dynamic that's already set in place.
someone back home → You find yourself growing closer to your new friend, but you're already taken back home.
confession → You both admit it's more than mere interdimensional alliances.
smut → You've reached that point in the relationship, or you're about to leave, or you're just curious about the people in this world (remember that scene in Howard the Duck where - nevermind, actually).
epic fight → Two worlds collide and big bads from the past are coming to threaten your temporary home and new love.
reformed → You've learned your lesson and turned over a new leaf. As much as you can, anyway. You're more open, less cocky, whatever the case may be.
sacrifice → Unfortunately, you won't get to go home. You selflessly put yourself in harm's way for your lover.
going home → Time for a heartfelt goodbye. Will you see each other again or is this it?
new home → You've learned and gained so much, you've decided to stay in this word.

Let's get some gen up in here.

The FAMILY Meme

How does it work? Simple! Choose a relationship (or roll for one, if it suits your fancy), and then RNG for a situation! That, or just go straight for whatever situation appeals to you. These are all fairly vague: just something to start you off!

Parent-Child

     1. Rock-a-Bye How do you get a fussy child to sleep? Read them a story, sing them a lullaby, or just let them stay up until they exhaust themselves? Whatever the choice, it is time for bed.

     2. For The First Time You've never met this person in your life, but it turns out they're one of the two reasons you exist. Maybe they walked out when you were young. Maybe they never knew you were born. Whatever the reason, it is now time to meet them.

     3. Past Midnight That curfew was set for a reason. Now it's two AM, and your kid is just now dragging in. Maybe they're drunk. Or got into a fight. Or just had way too much fun snogging their new love interest. It's time for them to face the music.

     4. New Home It's the first day of your new life together, as parent and child. Whether it's through adoption, a basket on the front steps, or a wish come true, both of you are going to have to learn to take your steps together.

     5. Holiday It could be Christmas, Easter, or just a birthday, but it is time to celebrate! Get together for some good old-fashioned family fun.

     6.Take To Work Day What your parents do for a living is the quickest thing that can turn a kid from boring to the coolest on the block. So whatever the job, from accountant to zookeeper, go to work!

     7. You're Not My Real Dad Being a step-parent (or step-child, for that matter) can be tough. Problem is, you're stuck with each other. So whether you're yelling or just having an awkward conversation, it is time to work things out.

     8. Unexpected Guardian So you're not the parenting type. Too bad. Situation calls for someone to step up to the plate and look out for this kid, and you're the only one near base. Have fun with that.

Siblings

     1. Protective Big Sibling Okay, look. No one gets to mess with your sibling but you. Your little brother or sister is in trouble; let them know you're going to be the one to take care of it.

     2. Ruining The Night So your sibling has a hot date. You know what that calls for? Making their lives a living hell.

     3. Newcomer Who is this new kid in your house? Your family has adopted, and now you have to call this stranger family. Welcome them into the house, or let them know how much they aren't wanted.

     4. Blood Brothers So maybe you aren't really related to this person. That doesn't matter. You're going to change that, right now. In this moment, you will become family. Nothing can break this bond.

     5. Middle of the Night It's the middle of the night. Your car is broken down, or you're drunk, or you need bailed out, or you just got beat up, or someone just broke up with you. Whatever just happened, it's time to call your sibling and hope they can bail you out.

     6. Sibling Rivalry Nobody understands what jerks siblings can be! Always in your stuff, messing up your relationships, getting in your way -- it's time for an all out brawl, whether that means yelling, pranking, or fists flying.

     7. Long-Lost Maybe you've heard of this person. Or maybe they are entirely new to you. However, you've gotten the information that you're more than strangers: you're family. Welcome to each other's lives.

     8. All Alone Once your family was whole. Or maybe it never truly was. Whatever the case, the world is a big, dangerous place, and you've only got one person left to rely on: your sibling.

Uncle/Aunt-Niece/Nephew

     1. Sent Away There's something bad going on at home, and you've been sent away to "safety." Problem is, how safe is this relative really? Are they the kooky, cool kind of Aunt, or are they a crazed Uncle after your fortune? Time to find out.

     2. Taking You In Something's happened to your niece/nephew's parents, and it's time to step up and do your family duty. They've got nowhere else to go, after all.

     3. The One We Don't Talk About So maybe the family is a little bit...ashamed of you. You're a bit mad, or you've done something they just don't like. Yet you want to be part of your niece/nephew's life, and whatever their parents say, you'll find a way.

     4. Grand Adventure Maybe you came out of nowhere, or maybe you've just been keeping secrets. But you aren't an ordinary aunt/uncle, and it's time to take your niece or nephew on a very wild ride.

     5. Like A Parent To Me Sure, you have parents, but this person is who your parents should be like -- or maybe who you feel should be your parent in the first place. Let them know how you feel about them.

     6. Don't Tell Mom Aunts and Uncles have special qualities. Like, sometimes, being a bit more lenient than Mom and Dad might be. So you have a, er, sensitive problem? It's time to run to them.

In A Relationship

     1. New Baby On The Way The panicking is already over, but there are still preparations to be made. Maybe you need to set up the nursery, or you've got the best idea for your soon-to-be child's name.

     2. Romeo & Juliet You love this person. Perhaps more than life itself. But it is time to break the bad news: your family will never approve.

     3. I Think I Might Be Pregnant Somehow, you are pregnant. And you think you know who the father is...time to break the news.

     4. While You Were Away You've been gone years, only to come back and find your beloved has a child...with your eyes.

Other
     Of course, you are free to make up your own scenario, or do a relationship not done here! "

Seeing You Naked for the First Time

There are outliers, of course, but many societies have come to the point where nudity is a reserved affair. That's understandable though, isn't it? The naked body is like one big target, with all our most sensitive spots exposed in a most dangerous way. Maybe it's some kind of carryover from primitive times, but it's common practice to shield your body unless you're taking care of inescapable tasks, with someone you trust, or being intimate - with the last two often overlapping.

No matter if you're less than comfortable showing what you've been given or if it's next to normal with you, one situation is nearly universally awkward, however: getting naked for the first time in front of someone you intend on being intimate with. If social lubricant is involved, things may be different, yet otherwise, you may feel that uncertainty in the pit of your stomach. What if they don't like the way you look? What if they ask about your scar? They can say they love you, but does that mean your whole body.

Whether, the time has come to take that first step with this person, no matter what secrets about your body you're not sure you want to reveal or how confident you are with the situation. Now, you'll bare it all...

...and you won't be alone. You'll see them as they see you, which can be more comforting or less so.

HOW TO PLAY
Comment with your character and preferences in the subject. Any additional information goes in the comment.
This meme is definitely shipping and...somewhat smut-ish. Smut is likely to happen, but it's absolutely not required. The main purpose of this meme is to explore relationships and character's self-image, in addition to how they're perceived by others.
Reply to others.

PROMPTS

smooth — This is old hat for you, and you make it seem like no big deal. The whole affair is smooth sailing on your end, and that confidence is alluring.
tryhard — You're attempting to be way too cool or too sexy, and it comes off as fake.
low self esteem — Suddenly, you're not feeling so great about your little pudge, your scrawny legs, your droopy...you know.
secret to keep — Your significant other has never known about the scars you bear, your deformation, or anything else you may have kept close to the vest.
not used to this — You're from a society that's so reserved, removing your clothes is almost exclusively for bathing only.
holding your breath — You've been wanting to see them like this for so long, the anticipation's killing you!
never seen anyone before — This isn't just your first time seeing them naked, it's your first time seeing anyone naked.
shy — This is just way, way too embarrassing!
everything that can go wrong — Your pant leg gets stuck. You trip over your underwear. That bra won't come off. You stare too long. You accidentally imply they look fat. Things aren't going as planned.
hunger — Just looking at them makes you want them more.
not impressed — ...wait, that's it? Really?
romantic — It's the perfect moment. You're staring into each others' eyes and there are smiles and words of love. Candles optional.
encouraging — They're clearly not confident about getting down to their skivvies, so a few kind words or actions could go a long way.
helping — You'll remove each others' clothes. After all, what's better than helping out?
accidental — You guys haven't made that step yet, but there's clearly sexual tension in the air. That won't be helped when one of you walks in on the other.
