THE TAG SOMEONE NEW MEME
How It Works
Sometimes, memes can be awkward. There's always that feeling that, if you don't know the person behind the curtain, you'll be intruding somehow. Don't worry. We've all been there. Still, it's nice to have that little reassurance that hey, it's cool. We're all in this together and we just want to play.

That's where this meme comes in! The point here is to play with someone you've never played with before, OR play with a character/canon you're unfamiliar with. The prompts provided include mundane activities, chance meetings, platonic fluff, romance/smut, fighting, and crack. This is pretty much the granddaddy of meme variety, so there should be something for just about everyone.

INSTRUCTIONS
- Comment with you character(s). In the subject field, put all the info that's relevant + any preferences.
- Reply to others. Remember, the goal is to play with new people!

"Why could you not just let them take the money?!" he yelled over the rapid bullet fire before making his way over to the strange woman. He peeked out from behind the counter, found where each of the robbers were hiding and ducked down a split second before a bullet buried itself in the granite where his face had been a moment before.

He looked under the counter for anything he could use. A moment later, he flung a paperweight out. A dull thunk and cry followed by swearing as one of the men collapsed unconscious, his buddies pausing in their gunfire.

Nickov got a stapler ready to toss if Miss Swords couldn't get to them.

After the hail of bullets ceased and cries of agony replaced them, Nickov stood up again, ready to throw the stapler and stop another but gazed in horror at the two robbers with missing limbs.

"Are you insane?!" he yelled at the woman, leaping over the counter and quickly coming over to the one whose arm had been cut off first. Ripping off the man's shirt, he wrapped it around the bloody stump to try and stem the flow of red.

"Call an ambulance!" he snapped at her before moving onto the man with the severed leg who was going pale really quickly.
