HELP ME PLEASE! the meme



We all have something we either can't do, or can't do alone. Luckily there's a meme for that.

HOW TO PLAY

○Post with your character.  Don't put their name and canon in the header.  Instead put something that they don't know how to do and would like to learn, or something they might want help or practice with.

examples: I can't swim • I need to clean this whole house so I can go to a ball and seduce a prince • I'd like to practice throwing pitches with someone

○Look around the meme! If you see someone that you think your character can be of some help to... tag them!

...they might. Um. Hold on a moment--

[And then he is she, a simple bit of shapeshifting to be sure, but even Lorelei had failed to recognise her in this shape, and they've known each other for a very long time.]

There.

[newjerseyhero]

[Kamala just looks for a moment.] Okay, that is seriously unfair. You are really lovely looking, you know that? [She wished her powers worked like that. Well, they do, but it feels... weird to change her own features somehow. Growing things? Yup, fine. Shrinking? Totally cool with. Making herself more aesthetically pleasing... Yeah, her brain rebels] I mean, you've got really strong bone structure, and everything! Lucky.

[godofbadideas]

Thank you. [She smiles a little; it's not often Loki gets compliments like that, that are just... genuine.]

[newjerseyhero]

Now, come on! Food awaits us, and if we don't get it now, a robot will probably attack the place before we can. [Good thing this isn't Bruno's shift time. He'd want to know who her new friend is and Kamala is still trying to work up the courage to ask what gender pronouns she should use while Loki is female. Or would... female appearing be correct? Or is it wrong to say that? Gah! This is harder than she thought] That... tends to be a thing that happens, weirdly.

[godofbadideas]

Oh believe me, I know. Doesn't happen as often to me - ex-villain thing - but it still happens. Snacks are on me today.

[Loki's gender is... complicated, yes.]

[newjerseyhero]

Oh, you don't have to do that. [And now she's curious] So being an ex-villain gets you an evil robots free card thing? [Please don't be offended if Kamala gets things wrong. She is learning; it's just taking a little longer than liked.]

[godofbadideas]

I'm royalty; I'm totally loaded. Let me get snacks? I mean, what's the point of having a princess for a friend if you can't mooch shamelessly? [Beat.] More of a professional courtesy thing; most of them think I'm still a villain, running some kind of long-con. ...Or they're just scared of me. That happens a lot.

[newjerseyhero]

Well, when you put it like that, it makes all the sense in the world. [She nods, then, almost nervously] The long con thing... could be a possibility though, right? To them, I mean.

[godofbadideas]

It could be. I don't plan to return to villainy, though, I promise.

[Fate may have other ideas, but Loki wants nothing less.]

[newjerseyhero]

Oh, I believe that. [It's said very quickly. She doesn't want Loki thinking that she was suspicious. Or trying to be rude. Rude is awful.] The BLT's are over there. I'm going to go grab a sandwich. Won't be long. Oh, and if you see a guy wearing a long, black trench coat with a pencil mustache? Yeah, avoid him. He's a bit creepy.

[godofbadideas]

[Her lips curl up in a smile that isn't precisely nice.] Is he now. Don't worry, I know how to deal with creeps.

[And she's off to get her BLT, and also something sugary, because yes.]

[newjerseyhero]

[Kamala is saying nothing about how that smile looks. Look how she says nothing. She gets her sandwich though, and a drink - water because she doesn't really feel like anything else - and makes her way back to the counter to wait on Loki]

[godofbadideas]

[Loki takes a very dim view of people who mess with her friends. Even new friends.

She eventually joins Kamala at the counter with a BLT, two doughnuts, and some horribly sugary coffee drink. After paying for everything, she casts about for a table.]

[newjerseyhero]

There's not really any seats, sorry. It never really occurred to the manager. Even after the remodeling. Not really sure why, but I figure he just didn't want to have more to replace in the event of another ... accident.

[godofbadideas]

Oh well. We can take our snack to a park, make a picnic of it.

[newjerseyhero]

That would be really nice. [She grins] Good thing it's a nice day!

[godofbadideas]

Don't say things like that; my brother will stub his toe, and his sulk will ruin the weather in the whole Tri-State area!

[newjerseyhero]

...Thor sulks. Thor sulks? That should not make me want to write crack!fic.

[godofbadideas]

Thor has epic sulks. Literally, someone wrote an epic about one of his sulks. He also throws temper tantrums. Do it.

[newjerseyhero]

...That is one of the most hilarious mental images I've had in, like, forever. If I do, you have to hide me from Thor if he takes offense

[godofbadideas]

I'll find you a copy of the epic; he's worked very hard to remove it from all mortal eyes, but I think I have one or two stashed away somewhere. You have my word.

[newjerseyhero]

You are awesome. Thank you. I don't think I'd like him having word with me. Because he's very big.

[godofbadideas]

I try. He's enormous. You have no idea until you've seen him hulking on your sofa.

[newjerseyhero]

And here was me thinking it came without trying. Did the sofa get squished?

[godofbadideas]

Aww. No, thankfully. He's only a little heavier than me, and my sofa is made tough.
