There's a beauty in the buildup - of a relationship, of desire, even of lust. In a television show, a long-running comic series, or a well-paced movie, couples to be worth their salt have a reasonable amount of will they/won't they. That creates anticipation and investment, and the resulting payoff is beyond satisfying. Unfortunately, in meme RP, buildup isn't often an option; your hands are tied unless you want to stick with canonmates or characters you already have CR with. Not exactly the most conducive tagging environment!

This meme isn't a perfect remedy for that, but with an assumed CR element, it's a step in that direction. The premise is simple: the two characters threading have clearly been wanting each other for a long time. What a long time is, of course, is up to you, whether it's weeks, months, years, what have you. There may have been glances, subtle touches, love from afar, or maybe something as concrete as a discussion of their situation, though most likely not. What there hasn't been is sex...until now. A release to all this tension is imminent, and you get to play it out. Rough sex, romantic first times, calm moments, all scenarios are welcome here as long as they fit under the banner of "finally getting together."

Unlike most Hollywood features, true love and a happy ending is not guaranteed, but that doesn't matter. What does is characters being with someone they've wanted, even if just for a little while, and muns get to play out smut with a bit of "umph" and weight to it. Here, there's something at stake, and the inevitable is long past due.

Comment with your character, preferences, and so on. You may want to mention if you prefer something more romantic, just plain sexual, angsty, so on, so forth.
