THE STORY of US MEME (a crossover pairing encouraged meme)

The Story of Us

a [crossover pairing encouraged] shipping meme

Crossover pairings are fun. Arguably, they can be one of the best parts of panfandom RP. After all, there's nothing quite like that spark when two characters just "click," especially when it was completely unplanned. AWESOME.

Unfortunately, in a lot of shipping memes here and elsewhere, the environment isn't really conducive to spontaneity. People usually just stick to castmates or close friends, and don't tag out due to lack of knowledge of canons or just plain intimidation. That's not fun for those of us who want to throw caution out the windows and just try crazy things, like throwing a Thor at a Sailor Moon (which, really, isn't that crazy of an idea if you look at the mythos for both series...).

This meme's for you, risk takers, crack shippers, or people who just want something new. All there is to do is fill out a tiny blurb so that people who don't know your canon will have some idea about your character. Then, go. Play. Don't let anything stop you. Don't know where to go with an idea? Wing it! The prompts here are not the super specific variety that most ship memes have, where you almost have to have canon knowledge. Want to reply to a character but have no idea where to begin? Make things up! The more creative, the better.

The Steps
- Make a comment with your character, canon, preferences, etc in the subject. In the body of the comment, fill out this super easy form. Just the basics.

Name: Jane Doe
Canon: The Best Canon Ever
About: Jane is a shy girl with magic powers.
[OPTIONAL]
What kind of character they'd be attracted to: Strong, outgoing types.


- Comment to other characters! Use the RNG, first rolling for category (1-3) and then for prompt.
- This meme was created for crossovers, and that's heavily encouraged, but no one is going to hunt you down if you play with a castmate. Just try to remember the purpose of the meme, okay?
- HAVE FUN

Two Ways to Play
#1 (the buildup)
- Start with the first category, which is how the characters meet. Play that as you see fit. THEN, do a timeskip! If you don't know what that means, it's when you handwave that time has past. Assume the characters have known each other for a while. Move on to a prompt in the next category. Rinse, repeat. You can build a relationship!

#2 (the regular)
- Just play it as usual. Roll for category, then for prompt.

The Categories
1. The beginning
2. The relationship
3. Years later

I. How We Met & the Sparks Flew Instantly (The Beginning)
1. First meeting (no matter how mundane or impossible!)
2. First date
3. Blind date
4. Arranged courtship/marriage
5. Hate at first sight
6. One night stand

II. People Would Say "They're the Lucky Ones" (The Relationship)
1. Confession (TELL ME HOW YOU REALLY FEEL)
2. Taking care of you
3. Meeting the family/showing you home
4. First time
5. FIGHT
6. Marriage proposal

III. One Day We'd Tell the Story of Us (Years Later)
1. Moving in together
2. BABIES or kids
3. Together again after a long seperation
4. Ending the relationship
5. Old (married) couple, aka Still in Love After All these Years
6. At the end of life

Jane Foster | Thor (2011) | Het for romance, etc.

[personal profile] bifroster 2012-05-17 04:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Jane Foster
Canon: Thor/Avengers
About: Jane is an astrophysicist who has gotten involved with super soldiers, gods from another realm, and more. She's stubborn and smart as hell.
What kind of character they'd be attracted to:
    It would be awesome if Jane could make some friends!
    As for romance, someone intelligent. I think she could go for anyone if they weren't a meathead.
    The more CR needed for a positive relationship, the better!
    So bring on angst and conflict and more!

Megamind | Megamind | Het~

[personal profile] megamind 2012-05-17 04:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Megamind
Canon: Megamind
About: The last of his kind, super genius villain eventually turning superhero for the love of a good woman (and frankly, because you know, good will rise); take him from early canon and have a somewhat derptastic villain boyfriend wiling to woo with impressive feats of kidnapping and huge explosions, or take him from after, and have a solid, well meaning hero boyfriend (who is still a bit of a derp) who still dresses like a villian in leather and spikes.
[OPTIONAL]
What kind of character they'd be attracted to: Smart is the number one. Tough is quick follow up. Snappy banter is a must. Love of heavy metal helpful. If he's in his criminal years, villains can be partners in crime; in his hero years, they can be the forbidden, bad girl with good guy romance. Good girls during villain years can woo him to the bright side, or be his Lois Lane while he's heroic. Plenty of options.

[You know, whether Kokonoe is a villain, a hero or just a plain ol' recluse scientist has never been decided. For someone ultimately trying to do good okay, and kill the asshole who killed her mother, she takes the most unconventional means she possibly can to do so. And if that means doing villanious things now and then, well, she'll send Tager to do her dirty work. And fetch her candy.

On this particular occasion though, Tager is indisposed chiefly because Kokonoe is making yet another unnecessary upgrade to the poor cyborg of a man. In doing so, she's come up with a fantastic upgrade idea that just requires a few ingredients easily found at any major scientific lab. ... Okay, not at her lab but at someone's lab.

Like yours, Megamind. And she really is trying to do a good job of this whole cat burglar routine but well... she's a scientist, not a thief. And she's also a lover of inventions which means distractions abound for her in the middle of someone else's lab.]

Kaine | Nier | OTA

[personal profile] offendsbooks 2012-05-17 04:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Kaine
Canon: Nier
About:
Tough on the outside, soft on the inside. Kaine is a person left hard by being blamed and punished for far too many things that she couldn't help. Ostracized for being intersexed and then later for bearing a Shade within her body, she's more used to rejection than acceptance, to the point where acceptance makes her both happy and amazingly uneasy. She also thinks she deserves all the hate - though she'll never admit to that - and does a pretty good job on being an asshole to herself as well. What she really, honestly wants is friends, family, a home and love. And she will never, ever let herself have any of those things.

Also she has a goddamn filthy fucking mouth.

[OPTIONAL]
What kind of character they'd be attracted to:
Post-game, the drama CDs describe Kaine as lusting after well-built, muscular tanned men. The unspoken reason is because of the foggy, vague memories she has of Nier himself. Kaine desperately wants to be viewed as a woman so she tends to go for very manly sorts of men.

Please note here too that Kaine is intersexed, as I mentioned. Any character who'd want to be with her for the long run has to be comfortable with their partner having both a penis and a vagina. Technically she is biologically female - the penis is a lovely accident of the Replication system. While it does work, it's not like she could father any of your kids with it, y'dig?

Name: Signum
Canon: Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha
About: Basically a magical construct made of information with a sword and fire-based magical girl powers. Honorable, loyal, practical, likes a good fight, easily caught off guard by spontaneous people.
What kind of character they'd be attracted to:
Fellow chivalrous/honorable/good types
Hotheaded people she can be practical at

Note: OU or Imperial Saga AU are both cool with me.

[Signum, you did something reckless during the last battle, and now you're showing the effects of it. Closing the wound was simple enough, but a recovery would take time.

Luckily, someone here is more than willing to help. He's bringing in a tray of food -- French onion soup and half a turkey sandwich, with a glass of juice. He carefully sets the tray down on the table.]


Take your time with this, got it?

Souji Seta/Protagonist/Yu Narukami idefk| Persona 4 | Women for romance

[personal profile] punches_fog 2012-05-17 05:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Let's just stick with Souji Seta
Canon: Persona 4 (VG)
About: The main character of an enormously bandwagon fandom A quiet, deadpan guy known for keeping his cool in extremely bizarre situations. Very protective of people he considers family, which includes most of his friends. Lots of hobbies, including oddly domestic ones like cooking.
What kind of character they'd be attracted to:
Pretty much anyone, with a slight bias towards the cute and outgoing type

Midna | Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (post canon) | Het

[personal profile] not_that_shady 2012-05-17 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Midna, Princess of the Twili
Canon: Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
About: Midna is scheming, teasing, flirtatious and dark... but not really evil. Since she's actually a creature of shadow, don't expect any walks in the bright sunshine. She has more fun in the dark anyway.
[OPTIONAL]
What kind of character they'd be attracted to: Heroic types and those with a strong moral core provide her with an anchor of stability. Being able to banter is helpful, but she's been well known to go for the silent types too.
punches_fog: (buh)

Let's start at 1-1 and go from there

[personal profile] punches_fog 2012-05-17 06:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Exploring realms not of sight and sound, but of the mind, is fun. Or so Souji decided long ago when he sprang for his own big screen TV. The thing is, wandering too far can take you to strange, faraway places - beautiful ones, in this case, but still strange and faraway.

In addition to a perpetually gorgeous sunset, it seems he's stumbled across a strange woman. Souji grips the hilt of the sword he brought just in case, but does not draw it, silently looking across the twilit plains at the woman, trying to make eye contact and make sure she doesn't grow tentacles or start spouting phsilophy or something.

Hey, you can never be too sure.

Gunmax | Brave Police: J-Decker | Robot or Human | OTA, IDGAF

[personal profile] engrishdetective 2012-05-17 05:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Gunmax
Canon: Brave Police: J-Decker
About: Gunmax can be basically kind of a huge jerk, but he's one of those "jerk with a heart of gold" types. He's full of comments, he teases others, he's the kind of guy to give people nicknames, but he also has no problem being blunt and abrasive. He lives freely by his own personal rules and can be quite reckless. His world is full of strange shit, like giant pandas, robotic dinosaurs attacking Japan, alien invasions, and fairies.
What kind of character they'd be attracted to:
- Friends are fine, assuming you can tolerate Gunmax
- Romance-wise, he seems to go for the huge "boyscot" types since they tend to tolerate him best

Miyako Miyamura | EF ~a tale of memories~ | Het

[personal profile] carefreeme 2012-05-17 05:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Miyako Miyamura
Canon: EF ~a tale of memories~ (~fairytale of the two~)
About: She's a high energy and somewhat obnoxiously friendly person who skips classes at school and tends to give up when the going gets tough. She hasn't always been this way, but a lifetime of having her hardwork repaid with misery has taken some of her fighting spirit. She's a very cheerful person, so it's hard to guess that she's incredibly lonely and miserable.
What kind of character they'd be attracted to: People who can put up with her obnoxious personality and will praise her are Miyako's favorites. She will happily do all of your chores, cook all of your meals, and tutor you in homework forever and ever if you'll acknowledge her. She likes to goof off and flirt, so being able to put up with that is a plus.

Asuka Langley Soryu | Neon Genesis Evangelion | Men for romance

[personal profile] soulsborderline 2012-05-17 05:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Asuka Langley Soryu
Canon: Neon Genesis Evangelion (1995 TV+End of Evangelion continuity)
About: Loud, obnoxious, hypercompetent, attention-demanding teenage girl who pilots a giant cybernetic robot (tsundere is an oversimplification but not really inaccurate). Once you get past her colorful exterior she has just as much deep-rooted self-loathing and trust issues as any other character in her show (which is a lot). Also barring AUing she dies and comes back to life at around 14.
[OPTIONAL]
What kind of character they'd be attracted to:
Someone who can put up with her need to dominate every social situation without just rolling over and letting her
Someone she can trust
Claims she only likes older/mature men; will almost certainly get over this with age

He wasn't in the best of moods to start with, and today of all days, some girl is just in his way. Sure, it's probably not her fault, but he's in a hurry. Instead of just saying excuse me, or at least warning her, he tries to cut around her on the sidewalk, but ends up bumping into her thanks to other passerby. Whatever, he was already annoyed at her for existing and walking in front of him, so he doesn't even apologize.

Botan | Yu Yu Hakusho | F/M

[personal profile] ferries 2012-05-17 05:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Botan
Canon: Yu Yu Hakusho
About: Botan is one of those ambiguous "older than she looks"/vaguely non-human characters. In her canon, she serves as one of the many grim reapers. However, just because her job is dark doesn't mean she is. Her personality is extremely chipper and upbeat (though it can veer from bubbly girl to deadpan snarker to outright troll). One major flaw of hers, though, is her tendency to be a motormouth and talk before she thinks. That's gotten her into more than one bit of trouble. But she makes up for it with loyalty to her friends and her employer, the prince of the Spirit World.
What kind of character they'd be attracted to: -Smart, quirky individuals
- Ancients/gods/etc
- GRUMPY GUSSES

Kusuha Mizuha | Super Robot Wars | Men for romance

[personal profile] xiao_lan_long 2012-05-17 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
More effort here because like a dozen people know this canon and I already play with all of them.

Name: Kusuha Mizuha
Canon: Super Robot Wars franchise
About: Shy, easily flustered girl with psychic powers who wears her heart on her sleeve. Despite all the strange things that happen to her, she's a kind girl at heart and loves taking care of people. Also pilots a giant robot (generic or Chinese-dragon-themed depending on canon point). She's sometimes easily manipulated and prone to angst about her telepathic powers getting her or people she cares about involved in wars and fighting, but deep down, she has a soul of solid steel and a desire to protect the innocent that makes her get over that about once a game. Infamous for creating "health drinks" out of bizarre combinations of ingredients that taste so bad you'll pass out but work so well you'll wake up with 150 morale. Later branches out into trying to do this to baked goods.
What kind of character they'd be attracted to:
Hotblooded types
People who make her feel comfortable. Or at least are equally uncomfortable in cute ways.
Psychics
Heroic people

[To say he was nervous was an understatement. Today he, Asem Asuno, was taking out one of the most beloved members of his alumni class. Sure, he'd made a name for himself thanks to the Battle of Nortrum, but he was still a 19-year-old man. So when he reached the meeting spot, he parked himself on a bench and took some deep breaths to help calm himself. He was still wearing his custom uniform -- it was the nicest thing he had available.]

Mina Tepes | Dance in the vampire bund

[personal profile] storyofapromise 2012-05-17 06:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Mina Tepes
Canon: Dance in the vampire Bund
About:
The Queen of all vampires in her world, her mother was killed several centuries ago leaving Mina the sole heir to her family's rule. As the only full-blooded female vampire, being she was born a vampire rather then being turned, left she is constantly under duress from suitors from among the heads of the three remaining major vampire clans. As a ruler she tends to be compassionate towards the less fortunate and pragmatic in most other matters, including not being above sacrificing a few people to save the whole community.

Personally, she is tends to act rather regal but tends to break into a cute, childish, persona when dealing with her closest friends and advisers. She also has a rather bloody past and tends to be prone to fits of depression rather easily.

What kind of character they'd be attracted to:
Strong people.
Those who don't mind her being a vampire and her child-like body.
Those who make her feel safe.
People who "understand" the pressures she faces as the queen of an entire race of people.
revolutionized: (pic#1087286)

[personal profile] revolutionized 2012-05-17 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Utena Tenjou
Canon: Revolutionary Girl Utena
About: Good-natured teenage girl who aspires to be a prince. From earlier on in the canon she's a bit bullheaded and sometimes frustratingly naive and obtuse, but later (and post-series) she gains some insight and understanding of others/the way the world works in general. Has moments of surprising thoughtfulness from any canonpoint. Is a decent human being overall and genuinely cares about others, but her method of conflict-resolution is usually just to rush right in. Also, she's very dashing.

Her canon is bizarre, but she comes from a strange school where she is made to participate in a series of fencing duels in order to protect a girl named Anthy Himemiya.
What kind of character they'd be attracted to: - Mysterious waifs
- Elegant, mysterious people in general
- Noble, chivalrous good guys like herself
- Really cute people who need to be protected, idk. "Damsels," if you will.

With feasible development she could be attracted to most character types though. And any type of friendship/bromance is fine and welcome!

Raidou seated himself outdoors, a little ways away from the entrance to the cafe at which they'd agreed to meet. He was a little early, but punctuality was, of course, a virtue for a good detective.

He flipped open the dessert menu the server had left on the table, idly flipping through its pages.

sorry for the wait!

Gordon Freeman | Half-Life | Het for romance

[personal profile] trustycrowbar 2012-05-17 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Dr. Gordon Freeman
Canon: Half-Life series
About: MIT-educated theoretical physicist turned alien-hunter turned city savior turned man of legend, who's really just a Seattleite coffee-addict who was in the ultimate right place at the wrong time. He's considered a man of few words, although that's usually because no one gives him the chance to say anything. He's dryly sarcastic and blisteringly intelligent, and occasionally talks over people's heads despite his best efforts to tone down the technobabble. He's also somewhat awkward around women he's attracted to. Well, okay, he's VERY awkward around women he's attracted to.
[OPTIONAL]
What kind of character they'd be attracted to: Brainy, confident women who can keep up with him, whether listening to him go on about population densities of photonic resonances or fighting with him on a zombie-infested battleground.

Minako Arisato | Persona 3 Portable | Het

[personal profile] evokedpotential 2012-05-17 06:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Minako Arisato
Canon: Persona 3 Portable
About: Cheerful and bubbly girl who's full of energy and always willing to help out and very outgoing and confident in her own abilities. Slight chance of getting sarcasm from her, but for the most part she's really just nice and willing to interact with just about anyone. Has a kind of difficult past, but doesn't let it hinder her.
What kind of character they'd be attracted to: Confidence is key. She likes confident guys and guys who aren't afraid of being themselves and while she's not suckered in by romancing, she does consider it an endearing trait. She'd also prefer if her romantic interest didn't treat her like a delicate little flower, because she's definitely not. Also, a high tolerance for physical contact is a must. Even if it's just holding hands and such. She likes both the strong silent type and the chatty type though, so either or of those works for her. Basically she just needs someone who'd be as into her as she would be to them. Has a sweet spot for the strong silent type that actually has a soft, squishy core.

About: Stubborn, proud and just a little bit dumb. He loves to fight, but only one-on-one battles. He prefers being friends off of the battlefield and will party with even enemies that he has to kill the next day. He's extremely honest and always sticks to his word...though he does occassionally interpret oaths in a flexible way. Well-meaning, but naive and impulsive.
What kind of character they'd be attracted to: Tough ladies. Tsunderes are a bonus.

[This was stupid. Why the hell was she even here? Oh, that's right. her friends decided to set her up because they thought it would be "funny." Well... it's not funny. Shut the bloody hell up, Alec. She knows you're laughing at her.

This all started out with Rae getting her to dress up for no reason. And then she dragged her to this cafe. Was she staying? Nope! She ditched, saying someone was going to come soon to meet her. When she tried asking who it was, Rae wouldn't tell her. She'll just sit there, looking spiffy, and extremely irritated. Why was she still there?]

Akechi Mitsuhide / Samurai Warriors (1) / OTA

[personal profile] featherwrapped 2012-05-17 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Mitsuhide Akechi
Canon: Samurai Warriors (1)
About: A noble young samurai with a very firm 'good' moral alignment. He's very much the sort who places the good of others very firmly before himself, and will sacrifice that which is meaningful to him if it benefits others. That goes even if the people he is trying to help will think bad of him afterwards. In canon he betrayed his Lord because of the man's tyranny and approach to war; this labelled him permanently as a traitor and lost him his closest canon bond.

In general he is a quiet scholarly sort, with a lot of courage and a kind nature but with a tendancy towards depression. He has trouble dealing with grey areas as well, and can at times have something of a 'black and white' view of the world. Make no mistake, however; he is a warrior, and a very capable one at that. There's an edge of steel to him that he can call upon when necessary.

HE'S ALSO A TOTAL PRUDE. And easily embarassed. xD

What kind of character they'd be attracted to: He appreciates intelligence and courage in both men and women, as well as artistic talent. That doesn't mean he wouldn't find someone lacking these qualities unattractive, just that those traits are definitely going to get his initial interest. Really, with the right base and development, most types would work with him. ♥

Rapunzel | Tangled | F/M or F/F

[personal profile] hairflyingheartpounding 2012-05-17 07:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Rapunzel
Canon: Tangled

About: Rapunzel may have been sheltered all her life, but she's not the delicate flower her mother makes her out to be. She's pretty spunky and very happy and not afraid to get snarky with someone who deserves it, albeit in a pretty playful way. She's SUPER creative, notably with visual arts, (painting, pottery, etc.), but she also loves music and a lot else. She can be cautious if she's taken from the first bit of canon, but once she gets out of her tower she's quite ready to see the world. She's also really, really spontaneous so uh be on your toes.

What kind of character they'd be attracted to: I like to play with her canon attraction to jerks with good in them. Bonus points for bad life choices! But nobody truly awful, naturally. But the more difficult they are about emotions, the better.

I'm open to any fandom/medium; I just know some people get nervous tagging Disney people with non-Disney people. Or so I've been told, at least.

Clive Dove | Professor Layton | OTA

[personal profile] vengefulyears 2012-05-17 07:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Clive Dove
Canon: Professor Layton (specifically Professor Layton and the Unwound Future)
About: Clive is an outgoing, friendly British gentleman, although very blunt about his opinions and refuses to take shit from anyone. He lost his parents at a young age thanks to the careless mistakes of a corrupt prime minister and a group of scientists, so Clive has a massive hateboner for most politicians and scientists as a result.
What kind of character they'd be attracted to: Well, they have to be physically attractive, for one. Intelligence is another very important thing to have, and he really enjoys people who are open-minded and generally fun to be around. He's not going to enjoy dating someone who has no personality and never wants to go out on dates or anything. And, being a Professor Layton character, Clive also has a love for puzzles, so a fellow puzzle lover would be a huge bonus.

Of special interest is the world of humans on the shore above her aquatic home. Her entire life's dream has been to walk among them, and she'll stop at nothing to spend one day in the sun.

She's kind but rebellious, brave but short-sighted, sweet but a bit self-centered. There's much more to this mermaid than a pretty singing voice.
