Take Care Meme

The "Take Care" Meme
a shipping meme

Life is hard. You can go through rough patches and over bumps, and sometimes it feels as though you're definitely worse for the wear, both physically and mentally. It's nice to have someone - someone more than a friend - there for you in those times...even if you don't think you want them or deserve them. But they're here, and they'll take care of you.

How to Play:
* This is a shipping meme for more tender, soft moments, but a little more serious than your usual "fluff." It's for people who've been broken down by their experience and those who wish to heal them.
* Comment with your character/your preferences. You may also want to specify whether your character will be the one "cared for" or the one doing the "caring" + pertinent information, but for most effectiveness, it's best to be open to both.
* Comment around.


Prompts
1. Know You've Been Hurt By Someone Else: There are scars left on their heart from a past relationship or fling, and you have to let them know you're not the same way.
2. Can Tell By the Way You Carry Yourself: The person you have feelings for is one of those "cold stone wall" types who pushes people away. Can you get past that?
3. I've Asked About You: You've only heard bad things about this person, but you don't believe it.
4. What's a Life with No Fun: Lighten up a bit! You'd do anything to bring a smile to their face.
5. Please Don't Be So Ashamed: You have a big, BIG secret you don't want the other person to find out about, because surely they wouldn't want to even be near you if they did.
6. I've Had Mine, You've Had Yours: You've both had problems, and it could help to compare wounds so they can begin to heal.
7. Those Lies Heal: Protecting your loved one is more important that the truth, isn't it? It's a lie, but there are good intentions here.
8. You Can't Sleep: Because of past trauma, you're having a sleepless night. Luckily, this time you have somebody to help you and give you some comfort.
9. You Cry Still: The obligatory "seeing your significant other/love cry over something and wanting to make them stop at any cost" option.
10. All Get a Little Taste: Your loved one is sick or injured - literally this time - and you're looking out for them and trying to get them better.
11. You Just Don't Know: Either through magic, torture, or blunt trauma to the head, your special person can't remember you! It's up to you to get them to remember what was between you two by showing all the ways you cared for each other.
12. I Give Her Space: Part of being a careful lover is knowing when you need to leave them alone.
13. Tryna Run from That: Uh-oh, you don't want to fall in love, because you've been there, done that! Maybe there's still time to escape from this...or maybe it's too late.
14. I Will Care for You: After a particularly rough day, you're need a little TLC. Your loved one is going to do everything for you - a bath, food, the works.
15. All the Baggage Just Ain't as Heavy: You know it will take a while for this person to mend psychologically and spiritually, and you're willing to wait.
16. Change the Pace: And the smut option. Show you care through sex.
17. We'll Just Go Slow: You're going to take things one step at a time. No need to rush and define things. Just enjoy each other's company and the healing it brings.
18. We All Have Our Nights: Your lover, because of their past experience, is having a complete breakdown. You have to bring them back from the edge.
19. You Don't Say You Love Me: You both know how you feel, but one of you is having problems saying the four letter word. That's okay, though. Your lover understands.
20. To Save You: After months or years, you've both worked on the problems and old scars and you might just be ready to start something resembling a normal love.
21. CHOOSE SOMETHING ELSE

[infinitejustice]

[Either, but I'd prefer he be the one cared for. No 16.]

[bookdrooling]

Hmmmmm.....I guess the question is, how would someone make an Imanity feel better? If it helps, I've memorized where each and every one of your erogenous zones should be! A swift production of adrenaline and endorphins should help you perk right up!

[Yep, looking entirely pleased with herself. Enough to fluff her wings.]

Well, what do you think?

Ky Kiske | Guilty Gear | M/F

[shinya can't sleep.

years of being in the military, and then coming home to civilian life, isn't exactly making things easy for him. he's still all smiles as before, and was lively enough to participate in a talk with oikawa about his volleyball conquests. he needed to be reminded of a few terms and few names, but shinya dealt with it easily enough and slipped into a comfortable rhythm like he'd never left at all.

oikawa's grown taller, too. he's kind of proud. said as much - ruffled his hair in between talks, commented on how he'll be as tall as he is soon enough. teased him about maybe having a girlfriend, teased him about that friend of his with the arms. for his part, shinya only volunteers so much about the military: "it's stressful", "it's a lot of paperwork and reports, kind of boring really!", "i'm not in the front lines - are you worried? that's cute of you." that is, nothing at all that would upset the mood.

after dinner, though, and after a round of talks with his parents, friends of the family and the like, shinya's shown to his room and he retires to it with rather heavy steps. he'd be lying if the whole civilian life isn't exhausting him as much. he doesn't know how other people do it, to come back to their lives like nothing happened in the first place. he doesn't have his weapon with him, at least, but he's itching for it - he'd rather not terrify oikawa's family, however.

it's awful. at 3 am, he still can't sleep, flipping through channels but not particularly watching anything, eating the last bit of an orange popsicle he'd stolen from oikawa's stash in the fridge. he may or may not have finished the whole pack.]

[01110110]

[ It has been less than a day since Sokovia. There's talk of a facility in upstate New York where the Avengers and what's left of SHIELD will relocate, regroup. But there's been no time for that yet. For now, they ride the Helicarrier back to Washington, DC after dropping the Sokovian civilians off at a safe location.

They had buried Pietro there. There was a small, private ceremony. Just the Avengers, Fury, Hill, and Rhodes. At the time, the Vision hadn't known what to say to comfort Wanda. But now, hours later, when he comes across her sitting alone in her quarters, he feels the need to reach out to her somehow. She has suffered a profound loss, he knows. There must be something he can do.

He doesn't knock, merely stands in the doorway for a moment that's probably longer than what would be considered normal (or appropriate). ]

If I may come in?

Lili Rochefort | Tekken | OTA

[domineeringprincesstype]

[She'll be a brat either way]

Ryou | Sakasa Moji nara Suki da to Ieru

[dishonest_attitude]

Nabooru | Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time | OTA

[diedthesage]

[Either role is fine but she's a tough ol' gal so more likely she's taking care of someone else. But if you want to put up with grumbling about how she's fine she can be the one taken care of!]

[Hei sighs, returning to his own room with Nabooru. Today's mission was on an extreme he had not considered. Almost seemed like the targets were waiting for him. Were it not for Nabooru pointing out an escape route, odds are he would be trapped there. Not helping things was how much his body had been pushed to its limit.

He fell onto his chair, sitting back onto it and staring at Nabooru.]

How are you holding up?

[ooc: because I think these two work so well together.]

[Tony felt like shit, literally. He had a cold, or rather put, man flu. He came into the lab sneezing and looking like a zombie.]

Ok, Banner. Shall we get going on our schematics again?

Matt Murdock l Daredevil l ota

[blind_devil]

[Most likely the one needing care]
