TABOO meme

Most societies have certain mores that are unspoken rules; humanity itself even has such conventions, grilled subconsciously into our minds for our own safety. Don't go out alone at night. Avoid getting wet when it's cold. Don't pick fights with those stronger than you...okay, some of us missed the boat on the last one, but the point still stands. Society's rules tend to be more variable, though they apply to most aspects of life - including sex. In fact, bending the rules on what's considered acceptable in romance and sexual encounters can lead to anything from ostracization to death, depending on the time and culture.

So, play it close to the chest if you're going to do a big, big, big t a b o o. Is it worth the risk?

How to Play


- Comment with your character and preferences. Be sure to include what you want and what you DON'T WANT. Blank comments are fine; info is even better!

Snuggle, Snuggle

One of the best parts of having a boyfriend, girlfriend, lover, crush, or mutual-feels-sharer is that you also have an almost-guaranteed cuddle buddy. From the bubbly butterflies to the most sullen of assholes, pretty much everyone wants affectionate contact sometimes, so whether it be laying your head on your partner's lap, holding their hand, falling asleep on them, bumping foreheads, snuggling close and tucking yourself under their chin, or even just touching shoulders, don't fight the urge! Hug it out.

In public, in private, on a date, watching a movie, riding along on the back of a dragon, it doesn't matter where you are. Or maybe it does to you, but the benefits of being close absolutely outweigh the risks.

Take your time, too, especially if you're not used to this sort of intimacy. Cuddling doesn't have a shelf life!

  • Comment with your character, preferences, and the like. Some characters are going to be uncomfortable with or unused to touch, so if yours may require some extra legwork or plotting, you can mention that, too.

  • Just be fucking adorable, okay?

promised to someone else.

Ah, love. Ain't it great, all those starstruck, breath-stealing, head-swimming feelings? Be careful you don't throw up...from joy. Hey, but you should know all this; you're smitten, yourself! And the person who has your heart is promised to-

Oh. Oh. The person you love's with someone else, huh? Ouch. Whether it be a mutual romance that's interrupted by an (also mutual) attraction to you or an unfortunate circumstance or obligation that's got them pinned to somebody they don't even care for, they're out of your reach.

...or are they? It's your life, don't let us tell you what to do, still- listen to your heart. Listen to your gut. Probably don't listen to your brain. Decide whether or not you'll do the "right thing" and lose them forever.

Or, stick with us here: tell them to screw everything else and just be with you. You want them. They want you. How could that be bad?

  • comment with your character, the role your character would likely play, other info, prefs, rambling screeds, whatever.
  • reply to others and thread idk.

unpopular opinions

Do you think people are too sensitive? Or that Superman isn't so super? Think cats aren't cute? The Beatles are overrated? Love pineapple on pizza? Maybe you just don't like chips rly. Even the best of us have some controversial opinions. Let people know what a monster you are.

top level

with your characters’ unpopular and/or controversial opinion. Or share few of them at once. In person or via text. Prepare for disagreement.

comment

to tell them why they're wrong, validate a kindred spirit, or just troll them for caring about such a silly-ass thing in the first place.

Pretty Woman
shipping meme


There's no one who understands better than you that in the trade of skin and vice and sex, there's no room for emotion. "Love" especially is worth less than the money you can ply - and more dangerous for its trouble, too.

Still, you've broken the one rule of sin (don't fall in love, never fall in love, not with a client) and there's no turning back. So what will you do? Here's the rope made of decisions: use it to run away from the bed you've made...or tighten the noose.

  • No need for explanation needed here, it is what it is. A Pretty Woman-esque shipping meme for a romance (or something like it) between a prostitute and...someone who's not a prostitute!
  • Obviously, while the meme is based on a romcom that glosses over all the darker aspects of sex work, threads here could be fluffy, romantic, tropey/meta, tragic, or serious. Triggers could very well abound. If things are going to be on the uglier side with your character, like abuse, drugs, or underage, please make a note of that and respect preferences.
  • Make a top level comment with what role you'd like to play + any other info.
  • Reply to others. Play out meetcutes, forbidden romances, business-turned-more, rescue, etc.


Roles:
  • The Worker: Everyone has a different story about how they ended up in this lot. Tragedy, force, addiction, money troubles, or genuine love of the work, it doesn't matter, as all the roads lead to another notch in the bedpost and some more money in your - or your boss's - pocket. For once, though, the person you're "hired" by...they're different. Actually, fresh-faced or veteran, you may just discover that you're a little different yourself, more heart of gold than hooker.
  • The Client: You were looking for a little fun and you didn't mind paying. Or, on the other hand, you might have just stumbled into a den of iniquity on accident or for other business entirely. One thing's for certain...one person's caught your eye, and whether it be love at first sight or an arduous process, you want better things for them. What do you plan? A rescue? Beating up anyone who'd hurt them?
    Be careful you don't get hurt in the process, whether it be at the hands the criminal element that plagues the shadowy side of life or, unfortunately, at the hands of the one you care for most.


Setting:
  • Past (Roman brothels, Victorian whorehouses, Renaissance courtesans, etc.)
  • Modern
  • Sci-fi or fantasy

The Parenting Meme

HOW IT WORKS:
Post with your characters, one per comment please.
Others tag your muse with a number choice. Either use the RNG or pick whichever you like. For optimum fun, be adventurous! Throw random characters at each other and see what fun shenanigans you can get up to.
Congratulations! Now you're parents. Hopefully you won't screw this up too much.
Have fun!

01.
You’ve just gotten the news, you’re pregnant. Time to tell your spouse. OR You’ve just gotten the news, you’re approved for adoption! Time to tell your spouse.
02. Oh my God, you’re in labor! OR Oh my God, time to meet your adoption prospect.
03. It’s the first night home with your new baby. Good luck.
04. Now you know why they call it the terrible twos. How are you and your spouse coping?
05. It’s your little one’s first day of school. You and your spouse are seeing them off.
06. Sitting in the stands for your kid’s big sports game. You two cheer as loud as you can!
07. The only thing worse than a two-year-old is a teenager. Time to discuss what's an appropriate punishment.
08. Hopefully you’ve got fresh batteries in your camera for prom pictures. Maybe your spouse remembered.
09. Your kid is off to college. You can’t believe the number of boxes you’ve got to fit in your car and carry to their dorm.
10. You’re older, wiser and probably going to cry at your kid's wedding. At least you two still have each other.
