Completely Pampered Shipping Meme

Completely Pampered Shipping Meme


Who in the world could hate kindness? Sweetness? Conscientiousness? All of us, on some level, like to be pampered and taken care of, from the most churlish to the most pleasant. Yes, even those grouchy grumps, or, of course, the cool-headed psychos -

Okay, maybe not all of us to the same degree.

Regardless of your disposition, somehow, you've gained a doting significant other. It seems like they find their greatest pleasure in taking care of and looking out for you. This may manifest in them simply trying to keep you entertained, happy, and healthy; it could also come in the form of them being a domestic doter, taking care of all your needs. Be it the former or the latter, there's an inherent adorableness that comes with their efforts and generosity, and in return, you have an urge to protect and care for them. They're just too precious for this world! Only, you know, there's a good chance you can a. ignore this, because you're emotionally stunted and full of wo/manpain, or b. repress it because you're a badass and would never.

Unless you've completely disregarded all that because they're just too much and you want to hold them forever.

So, how do you feel about all this? Do you wish they'd stop with this foolishness (not really)? Are you pushing them away? Are you embarrassed? Maybe you're absolutely taken with them! Just realize that you have it incredibly good.

HOW TO PLAY
• Comment with your character, preferences, their role, any info, etc.
• Reply to others.

ROLE
Usual: This is how they always are. "Caring" is in their nature.
Unexpected: They don't seem like the type...but with you, they are.
Terrible at It: They're trying hard, yet it seems like they fail at trying to take care of you. Depending on who you are, though, that may just make them more endearing.
Because You Like It: They heard you like those who are sweet and kind, so they're trying to change their ways.
Not Together: Technically, you're not together romantically, but everyone knows the truth.
The Doted Upon: What it says on the tin!

PROMPTS
Feeding: Whether they cook for you or have moments where they feed you, literally, they take your nutrition seriously.
Massage: Let them work out all those kinks.
Clean You Up: Here, they've drawn a warm bath for you.
Dress Your Wounds: If you're the kind of person who gets in battles, they'll see that you're all patched up.
Singing: Or telling stories, or otherwise calming you down.
Lap Rest: Sometimes, their lap is the best pillow.
A Shoulder to Cry On: When you have troubles, they're always there to listen.
The Calming Force: If you have moments of terror from past trauma, they're always willing to put themselves on the line to bring you back to reality, even if it puts them in danger.
Soft Kisses: Their kisses feel so good, and they're never demanding.
Head Pat: Sometimes, a simple gesture can mean the most.
Grooming: They'll fix your hair - or at least play with it - and help you shave.
Gifts: Homemade or expensive, they like to shower you in presents.
Lovemaking: The obligatory smut option, where they're a generous lover.
Protector: They look out for you, and while they don't seem that way, if you're threatened, they get like a bear protecting her cubs.
Gentle Giant: They make you feel so small and delicate.
Reverse: For once, you want to dote on and take care of them.
Unwilling: It's a wonder they still try to care for you, because you're cruel to them and rebuff them at every turn, even if you really don't mean it.
It's Okay to Cry: They never get upset because they don't want to put that on you. You want to let them know they can let it all out.

You could have woken up earlier to do that, you know.

[this face.] Do you have any idea how early I already have to get up to go to practice?
strawberrysorbae: (Default)

[personal profile] strawberrysorbae 2015-06-10 06:30 pm (UTC)(link)
No!!! Like, 4! Did you ever wonder how things are always already set up and ready to go before the team gets there in the morning?!
aomeanie: (this is a joke right?)

[personal profile] aomeanie 2015-06-11 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
Oh... I thought the coach did all that.
strawberrysorbae: (Default)

[personal profile] strawberrysorbae 2015-06-11 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
That's a waste of his time. I'm the manager, it's my job to keep everything in order.
aomeanie: (who pissed in your coco puffs)

[personal profile] aomeanie 2015-06-13 01:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah but they pay him. You're doing all this labor for... what? Free?

[personal profile] strawberrysorbae 2015-06-13 03:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[she gives him an almost pitying look.] Daichan, are you really that stupid?
aomeanie: (we are inside excuse yourself)

[personal profile] aomeanie 2015-06-14 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not stupid! [he glares] I'm just saying that that isn't right, okay!? For him to do that to you-- that's not right.

[personal profile] strawberrysorbae 2015-06-14 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
[now her look is definitely pity, with maybe just a twinge of sadness.] He doesn't do anything. Most managers don't chose to do much outside practices, but I'm not one of them. I do it for you, of my own free will.
aomeanie: (this is a joke right?)

[personal profile] aomeanie 2015-06-14 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
[he stops. wha...t] You... do? [well when you put it like that, it... she really has been doing this stuff for him.]
strawberrysorbae: (Default)

[personal profile] strawberrysorbae 2015-06-14 06:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course, stupid. I followed you here, didn't I? And it's my job to make sure your team runs as smoothly and as well as possible, something I take very seriously.
aomeanie: (do I have to?)

[personal profile] aomeanie 2015-06-15 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[he may or may not be squeezing her hand a little tighter.] You should let the old man do more of the stuff he's supposed to do. It ain't right that he's banking on the shit you do for him. Like this, he's at least paying you back for the shit you buy for us, right?
strawberrysorbae: (Default)

[personal profile] strawberrysorbae 2015-06-15 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, of course, he doesn't expect me to pay out of my own pocket, especially since I'm too busy with the team to have a job. I keep the receipts and turn them in to him at the end of the month. [she can feel her cheeks go a bit pink at the squeeze of his hand, and really, she's surprised that he hasn't let go yet or pushed her away.] Don't worry about me, Daichan. I want you to have the best possible team to play with.
aomeanie: (squints at bleakly)

[personal profile] aomeanie 2015-06-15 09:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[squints at her.] At least call me when you decide to go out late. Jeez, you probably would have been picked up and landed yourself on the morning news as teen goes missing.
strawberrysorbae: (Default)

[personal profile] strawberrysorbae 2015-06-15 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[she gives him a teasing smile.] Aww, Daichan, you care. [she bumps him with her hip.] I promise, I'll call you next time, either so you can come with me or talk me out of it.
aomeanie: (what kind of bullshit was that?)

[personal profile] aomeanie 2015-06-15 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Good. [squeezes one last time.] Now lets go back. You have to get up in a couple of hours anyway.
