the monster & the maiden fair meme

There's a long precedent in folklore and myth of beautiful young people - both men and women - being kidnapped by monsters: dragons, beasts, goblins, demons, elves, vampires, wolves, or even evil humans. In the end, however, these prisoners are almost always rescued and brought back to civilization to live a normal and happy life.

But what if they didn't want to leave their jailor?

They've seen behind the surface and have begun to sympathize with this "monster;" no, more than that, they've fallen for them. Will this story have a happy ending? Will the monster believe that anyone could love them? Most importantly, though, can the two of them be left alone without any attempts at a "rescue?"

how to play

Comment with your character, your preference, and what role they'll play. Feel free to AU characters to your desire role.
Reply to others.
Thread anything that could remotely fit under the umbrella theme. Was the kidnapping just that, or did both parties know (and care) for each other before, making it a collaborative, mutual effort? Perhaps you'd prefer to play the actual Beauty and The Beast-style getting to know each other or seeing behind the grizzly facade. What about an attempted "rescue?" Or maybe you could thread out a scene where the prisoner runs away from the society they were forced back into and returns to their beloved beast! It's all up to you. You could even do smut if you wanted to, but this isn't a smut meme.

A local friending meme

Back in the yesteryear of 2009, the Star Trek fandom started a friending meme, and the idea was simple. We are all such cool people, we should be friends in real life too. So the meet-up friending meme was born!

RP has birthed real, relevant friendships, and why should it stop here? I say we bring sexy back, roleplay community style! Too long have we been distraught by long distance, when there are RP buddies all around us!

THIS IS A FRIENDING MEME ABOUT MAKING LOCAL CONNECTIONS!

How to play:

▸ Post a subject line of your location (or find one that already exists!)
▸ Reply introducing yourself with as much or as little information as you feel comfortable providing.
▸ profit!

Nothing like a little sexy sparring.

SEXY SPARRING meme

Once you get down to it, fighting is pretty intimate. For a split second, guards let down so you can push yourself to your limit. Energy expended to gain that win. Bodies on bodies, pinning, grappling, pressing against someone. Panting. Sweating. If some UST is already there, if you two are already frayed due to a lingering attraction, a little physicality may be the breaking point. So whether you're really fighting, both of you are training, or one of you is teaching the other some moves to defend themselves (even if somebody's holding back and handling the situation with kid gloves), holds may go on a little longer than they should, words may come out in the heat of the moment -

And, of course, you may find that a kiss is the perfect way to knock an opponent off their feet....or that you want to lay a smooch on them, anyway, when they topple over onto you. You may not win, but really, you do!

Comment with your character, info, preferences, scenarios, etc.

Cool vs Awesome Meme

COOL VS AWESOME MEME!

(Idea and types of character inspired by the Smash Up Card Game and the Cool vs Awesome TV Trope - http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CoolVersusAwesome )

Zombies vs Robots! Pirates vs Ninjas! Dinosaurs vs Aliens! Vampires vs Werewolves! Alone they're cool. Together they're awesome!

We all like to speculate who'd win in a fight between all sorts of types of characters and races, sensibly or not. Now in this meme your characters are caught in the middle of this battle of awesome. Or maybe they're on one side or the other, willingly or not. Or maybe those factions are working together against you! Whatever the case see whether your characters can survive or emerge the victor!

Just make a post with your character and a optional background if you feel ties to any particular group, then responders pick two groups from the Who list or randomise it and a situation from the How list and muse it out, simple! (Oh and don't question how one faction can handle the other, here they're both badass.)

Lap Pillow.

The Lap Pillow Meme

From TV Tropes: A good way to show the physical intimacy and trust which a couple have is to rest one's head on the other's lap. Usually, the man does the resting while the woman provides the lap, not only because of anatomical reasons but because the lap-owner is typically of a nurturing nature more associated with femininity. Bonus points if she's feeding him grapes or stroking his hair. In some cases this is done between people who are not necessarily lovers, to comfort someone who is weeping or injured.

Or, in the case of the meme: screw the rules, we'll do anything. Maybe they're tired and just found a good place to rest? Maybe both parties were asleep? Hard to tell. All we know is, someone's head is going to be on another person's lap. Shenanigans will ensue.

How this works:
→ Leave a comment with the usual information in the subject line: character name, fandom. Any preferences, including what you don't want, should be included as well.
→ Congratulations,whoever tags your character has their head on your character's lap!
→ Tag around. Please please tag around.
→ Have fun, and be excellent to each other!

Six Impossible Things

Whether it's having a vampire as a babysitter, suddenly finding oneself in the distant past (or future), or falling down a rabbit hole, there are certain things that our muses find impossible.

How It Works:
:: Tag with your character's name and fandom.
:: Other writers will tag you with six impossible things for your muses OR you can write up your own list.
:: Pick one of those situations (either what was suggested by the OP or whoever responds) and play it out.
:: Profit from the impossible.

On Your Doorstep

They ended up on your doorstep, quite literally. Bloody, possibly. Bruised, most definitely, though the wounds may be mental. You probably don't know them from Adam, yet you couldn't find it in you to turn them away - whether they wanted you to or not. So you opened up your home, just for a little while.

But it's getting to be more than a little while. Both of you are finding a comfort zone, because you didn't simply open up your home. Admit it or don't, but you've opened up your heart all the same.

Their's is slowly following, if its reluctant at all.

1. Comment with your character, preferences, & what role you'd like to play.

2. Tag others.

3. Thread
