the weakness meme

[bifroster]

the weakness meme We all have that little thing that either turns us to mush, or is a temptation we can never resist, or something that totally leaves us vulnerable for exploitation. Whatever it may be, we can either enjoy it or despise it, or maybe use it as a strength if you're clever enough. Below, you can roll for a type of weakness and/or a role to play, or make up your own scenario based on canon, fandom, or anything, really! NOTE: Depending upon the weakness, the situation, and other factors, there might be some triggers. It is advised that you plan ahead or look into the tagger's journal so you know what their preferences are (and to have more insight to the muse!) oo1. comment with your characters make sure to put names, series, & preferences somewhere! you can use < ! > sans the spaces to make the comment "blank" oo2. reply to others in character oo3. use the rng and enter 1-6 for a type then roll 1-6 again for a role oo4. play out what happens—anything goes! oo5. profit? oh yeah!

prompts type one → silly it is nothing harmful at all, but someone might be tempted to tease you about it. two → guilty pleasure okay, so this one can never be found out. i mean, a love for trashy romances? really? three → annoying ...isn't it just annoying that you can't seem to life anything heavier than a kitten? four → vulnerable this weakness is a big one that you try to hide. because someone could really use it against you. five → dangerous if anyone found out this secret, they could nearly destroy you. or worse. six → secret thank goodness no one knows about this weakness. right? role one → victim you're the one with the weakness, sadly enough. great. two → abuser oh, be creative with someone's mind and vulnerability already. three → confidant you know their weakness, and are doing your best to keep it secret. four → soother you know their weakness... but you're a good guy. you're there for them. five → innocent bystander you didn't know anything, but that doesn't mean you can't be hurt. six → weakness sometimes a person is a weakness. that's you.

RNG is a whore B|

Uh. [ Wow, okay. This is kind of awkward for him because he definitely doesn't know this guy, but he'll go with it. ] No. I'm good.

[ Wait for it. ]

Actually— How much money have you got?

It loves you long time.

[engrammic]

[... Right. This is now officially awkward for him too because what guy just randomly asks for money? This is what he gets for trying to be decent.]

Not enough to spare, sorry.

LIES!

[lacksgrace]

Dammit. Okay. [ Excuse him while he shoves his hands into his coat pockets and pulls them inside out. Nothing. ] What about valuables? A watch or something? I could trade you for it.

[ Not that he has anything, but he (probably) doesn't knows that. ]

[engrammic]

[Just giving the guy a look that's one part incredulity, one part the hell?.]

Are you serious?

[lacksgrace]

Do I look like I'm not? [ He's going to get the same look in return. ] You never lend out your stuff to your friends?

[engrammic]

Friend? [Who are you even?] I don't even know you, I don't have to lend you shit.

[lacksgrace]

Oh yeah. [ Because that honestly hadn't crossed his mind at all. ] The name's Bells. Soooo, uh. How about it?

It'd just be a temporary thing. Ten minutes tops.

[engrammic]

[Okay, fine. Setting aside that he's absolutely not lending ANYTHING to this guy. Bells. Bells.]

Ten minutes? Why is there a specific time limit to how long you need my watch for?

[lacksgrace]

[ His name is fabulous. Don't be a jerk. Jerk. ]

Just so you don't think I'm gonna run off with it or something. [ And then tacked on at the end like an afterthought. ] I'm not a thief.

[engrammic]

You asked for valuables. What am I supposed to think, that you're going to polish it for me? Why do you even need valuables?

[lacksgrace]

Think whatever you want. I, uh. I just can't tell you what I need it for. It's kind of a long story anyway. Real boring. It'd probably put you to sleep if I tried explaining it.

[engrammic]

Wow.

You're really good at convincing people to fork over their stuff, do you do this professionally?

[lacksgrace]

Ha. Ha. [ Can you hear him mocking you? 'Cause he is. ] Forget it. I don't want your stuff now. It's probably not even that nice.

[engrammic]

[That's such a twelve-year-old thing to say. Adrian laughs, seemingly amused.]

You have no idea how true that is. You wouldn't get much for anything I own.

[lacksgrace]

There's a whole lot of that where I'm fro—hey! [ Okay, so maybe he is a twelve-year-old. He's crossing his arms like one. ] I wasn't going to sell it either. Do I look like the kind of guy to do that?

[ Um, yes???? ] Don't answer that.

[engrammic]

[YES.

Not that he's answering or anything.]

If you aren't going to sell it, what're you planning to do with it? I think I actually want to hear this now.

[lacksgrace]

Maybe I just wanted to see what time it was. Or hold it for a while. [ Pause. Grin. ] You can tell a lot about a person by the way they keep their stuff, and right now... Well. You're being pretttty stingy.

[engrammic]

See, the problem with that is I can tell you what time it is. And it's my watch, I can be stingy if I want to. [You can't shame him for being smart!]

[lacksgrace]

You're a real nice guy, you know that? [ He's not taking the hint. ] I'd show you mine.

[engrammic]

Hey, I can be nice. I just haven't had much reason to be lately. [Are either of them, really?] You wouldn't need mine if you had one to show me.

[lacksgrace]

Okay, yeah. If I had one, I'd show you. Happy now? [ He's not above begging, sooo. Looks like that's what he's going to do. ] Come on. I'll do whatever you want. Just let me see it.

[engrammic]

You're begging me.

[Adrian finds that weird. And kind of hilarious.]

To see my watch. What's wrong with you?

[lacksgrace]

Nothing's wrong with me. If you're gonna be like that, forget I even asked about it.

[ And to finish off their nice little chat, he just sticks his tongue out at him. ]
