the fish out of water shipping meme

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.

The Space Opera Meme

the space opera meme

Space Opera refers to works set in a spacefaring civilization, usually set in the far future or A Long Time Ago, in a Galaxy Far Far Away.... Technology is ubiquitous and secondary to the story. Space opera has an epic character to it: the universe is big, there are usually many sprawling civilizations and empires, there are political conflicts and intrigue.

- TV Tropes

( Prompts within! )

Time For Some Drunk History/Canon Storytime

Everyone's got something they can just go on and on and on about, even when they're a little bit drunk. Or a lot bit drunk. In fact, honestly? Maybe they've even got a better handle on it when they're drunk. So honestly-- honestly?

Just. Sit there. And let them tell you about it.

how do.
- Post a top-level with character info, including what thing they can nerd on about. Is it a particular time in history? Is it how magic/science/an ice cream machine works and the astounding ways it came to be like that? Is it their take on that one thing that happened in canon?
- Tag other folks with questions about their topic or a general gentle prompt to get them rambling.
- Roll to see how drunk you're getting (or not; we're not the cops) and tell the people the thing you know while you're super coherent.

how drunk.
1] Still sober - Work on that.
2] A little tipsy - You might be getting a little ramble-y about the thing.
3] A few hard drinks in - Okay, so, sentences are hard and you don't know how to pronounce the one thing but you are damn sure this is how it went down.
4] Plastered - Listen, you'll answer that question in a second, but has the other person seen what the table looks like if you put your head down on it.

A/B/O

THE ALPHA/BETA/OMEGA MEME

In our world, sexual roles are commonly defined by genders -- male or female or other, by sexualities -- gay or straight, bi or asexual or in-between. But what if they were defined by something else entirely?

Alpha/Beta/Omegaverse is a fusion of fanfiction tropes and animalistic behavior. In this world, sexual roles are divided into three categories: the Alphas (the dominant, the protective and the aggressive), the Betas (ordinary humans) and the Omegas (submissive, fertile and able to carry children).

RESOURCES:
Fanlore on the Alpha/Beta/Omegaverse
Alphas, Betas and Omegas: A primer.

CONTENT WARNING: Below the cut contains descriptions of animalistic sexual behavior as applied to humans, situations of dubious consent, explicit situations, mpreg, and scenarios of societal oppression. Click with caution!

ROLES:
1 - The Alpha.
* Stereotypically type A personalities.
* Anatomically: Males have a penis; females may have a penis in addition to a vagina.
* Alphas knot their mates, meaning that the base of the penis swells and locks them inside their mate while they produce copious amounts of semen in an effort to breed.
* Strong sense of smell.
* Near an Omega in heat, they experience a compulsion to mate that is almost impossible to overcome.
* Alphas may go into rut, which is their equivalent of Omega heat, and drives them to mate.

2 - The Beta.
* Ordinary human being.
* Lack of altered genitalia.
* Can mate to anyone.
* Might be able to smell hormones of Omegas and Alphas, but will not be overwhelmingly affected by them.

3 - The Omega.
* Stereotypically submissive, quiet, intelligent and less physically able.
* Female anatomy is similar to Betas; males are self-lubricating and may have either an external or internal vaginal setup.
* Regularly go into heat, which involves being overcome by the urge to mate. They are unable to consent while in heat.
* May be made compliant by a bite to the neck. However, that may also induce a mating bond.
* Often regarded as second-class citizens or prizes to be won.

SITUATIONS:
1 - Bonding - Love at first sight. You've spotted your soulmate. You can smell them, you can feel them, you know that they'll be with you until the end of your days. Unless there's something between the two of you. It could be age - maybe one of you has to wait until the other has reached maturity. It could be that the bond is one-sided, and the other has yet to fall in love. It could be an unwanted bond, or society could have divided you into different places. Is your love strong enough to conquer?

2 - Heat/Rut - The need is coming on you strong. Everyone for a half-mile around can smell it. Better find someone to ride it out with, or hole yourself up in a room with a few bottles of water and a durable sex toy. And you'd better hope that there isn't someone out there who will take advantage of your pliable state. Best case scenario, there might be a Beta who can take care of you, or fend off anyone too predatory.

3 - Pregnancy - Whether through a heat or not, you're pregnant. Congratulations - or condolences. Is it time to start a family, or time to start panicking?

4 - Suppressants - You're using suppressants to keep yourself on an even hormone cycle, skipping heats, or maybe pretending to pass as a different class of society. After all, Omegas might want to be in the military, where they're not usually allowed - or an Alpha might want to take a job in a university or as a nurse. Shouldn't they be allowed to, if their hormones are suppressed? Just hope that you don't miss a dose.

5 - Mistaken Identity - That friend that you always thought was an Alpha, or an Omega, or a neutral Beta, turns out to be something entirely different, and your world is turned absolutely upside down. Does it challenge your preconceptions? Or does it just ruin the balance between you two?

6 - Unlikely Pairs - After all, there's no actual reason that Alphas have to mate with Omegas. Maybe two Omegas can satisfy each other. Or two Alphas. Or your intended mate could easily be a Beta. Maybe this is just about breaking out of your pre-established role and becoming something new.

7 - Manifestation - In some cases, an individual may not know they are Omega, Beta or Alpha until their first heat/rut/manifestation, usually happening in early teen years. It may take you by surprise; it may be a blessing, or may be a deep disappointment.

8 - Other - Adventures in getting jobs, making families, fighting bad guys, and anything else you can come up with!

Flynn Lives...

Welcome Programs, to the Free Grid!

a Tron-verse meme

Thanks to Kevin Flynn's sacrifice, Sam Flynn's sentimentality, Quorra's memory, and programming help from a handful of others (the younger Flynn determined not to make the same mistakes as the elder)

The Grid has been rebuilt almost from the ground up, and repopulated with some programs he wrote himself, some that were written by Encom colleagues and others still by old CalTech friends (and friends of friends at other universities and think tanks and et cetera)

Some areas are still under construction, more sparsely populated than others, but the city center is thriving, there are The Games (now much less lethal) for the competitive-minded, the End Of Line Club for the partiers and The Archives for those who want to learn (or to impart knowledge) and various other venues (art galleries, shops of every stripe, vehicle mechanics and rentals, even casinos and smaller clubs.) Also the Park and it's resident swarm of Bits, they don't bite, but they might talk you to death.

The Train will get you basically anywhere you need to know, and runs all the time, no need to worry about it being out of service just because it's late. Light cycles are another popular mode of transportation, and the City isn't so big that it can't be walked.

Outside of the City is the Outlands all rugged terrain and cracked vistas. Beyond that is the Sea of Simulation which -now clean and virus-free once more- Sam hopes will begin to spawn ISOs as it once did. Beyond that is The Portal which is the way back to the real world, the realm of the Users.

Sometimes the Portal glitches, it's a known problem, nothing serious, really, just that it occasionally pulls in Programs from other versions of the Grid, other times in the Grid's history. It's a thing, and the new arrivals are generally found within short order and filled in on what's happening. System Monitors and a network of volunteers help with that.

Your character can be a native program, a transplant, even a visiting User, that's up to you. Tag around, get to know each other, have fun and try not to make the place too buggy, nobody wants to deal with that.

The TITFUCKING/PAIZURI Meme

Like many an act in porn, titfucking is harder in practice than it is in theory. It just may not be possible for some people. But what could be more fun? Tits are awesome and soft, fucking is amazing. Combine the two, and you have a sandwich most would kill to be a filling in. So, using the flexibility of fiction, come on and place your cock - flesh, plastic, or otherwise - between some pillows that are definitely the most fun of all. It doesn't matter what you call it, titfucking or paizuri, both end in a bang.

HOW TO PLAY
Comment with your character, preferences, etc. There are F/F and M/M options, as well, so come one, come all!
Reply to others.
RNG for your prompt or go nuts picking your own.

PROMPTS
1. nondescript: It's simply what it says. A titfuck, with no frills.
happen to be down there: Well, you're down between their legs. Why not?
2. first try: You've both always wanted to give it a try.
fixation: Breasts are the best, in your eyes. Touching them, kissing them - you want to do everything to them!
up the ante: You really want to get them on their toes, and and there's no way than doing something that's not same old, same old!
3. tease: A good old fashion boob press leads to more.
4. combo: Lips + tips = it's not too hard to figure out.
5. two on one: The secret equation is two pairs of breasts and one cock between them.
6. only vacancy: In an orgy, you take what you can get.
7. breast expansion: Get a little more cushion for your pushin'.
8. milkshake shake shake: AKA lactation kink. You're leaking anyway. Why not go whole hog?
9. non-con: No need to explain.
10. mothering: Breasts are a classic symbol of femininity and motherhood. Dote on someone just like mother would.
11. mutual benefits: Their breasts are so sensitive, you're both getting your minds blown from this.
12. messy fun: Clean up with some soap or lotion and make sure you clean everywhere.
13. not so good: Since it's a sex act that's a little spicier than vanilla, titfucking can be "deviant," thus associated with sluttification or corruption. Make of that what you will.
14. flat: ...you tried? But there's just not much there.
15. strap-on: Why should people with homegrown dicks have all the fun?
16. costume: Mix paizuri with some cosplay, a kinky costume, a bikini, or lingerie.
17. cumplay: The name of the game is the end result. Whether it’s an over abundance, planning on covering the chest, or multiple loads, the purpose is to get messy.
18. pecs: Because guys can have impressive chests, too.
