Rescue Me Meme

The Rescue Me Meme



'Cause, sometimes, you just can’t save yourself.


→ Post with your character’s name, canon, and any preferences in the subject line
→ Those tagging, go to RNG and roll for a number between one and ten.
→ Alternatively, just pick the choice you’re interested in most.

1. A Bad Date - You get a text, a phone call, or maybe you can just see the other person floundering on what clearly must be the worst date of their life. Time to step in and save the day.

2. Prison - Maybe they've been wrongly convicted, or maybe you're an accomplice. Either way, it's jailbreak. Maybe the guards will fall for the old 'wounded prisoner' technique.

3. Taken Hostage - They're being held at gunpoint, either for money or for fun. Maybe you can talk down their captors, or maybe you are a captor, secretly working to help them.

4. Abuse/Neglect - Your body is damaged, your suffering taken it's toll. You can't save yourself anymore. You're wounded, you're starving, maybe even dying. Someone, help.

5. Addiction - Just one more. Nothing bad will happen if you just get one more. Either way, you can't save yourself from this downward spiral. Someone else is going to have to help.

6. Yourself - One bad choice after another, your self-destructive tendencies are going to get the best of you unless someone steps in, quick, to save the day.

7. Climactic Situation - You're hovering over an active volcano, a pit of sharks, about to fall off a cliff. Whatever it is, you've only got precious seconds of life left.

8. Loneliness - You've been secluded, locked away, and the emptiness is overwhelming. You need company, or you might just drown.

9. Unwanted Social Function - A family reunion, your three o'clock board meeting, whatever it is, you desperately don't want to go. Hopefully your good buddy can come up with a distraction.

10. A Bad Romance - You're trapped in a relationship that's headed south, and you can't seem to get away from the other person. Looks like you need a helping hand, maybe a prince charming.

Sounds good to me!

[By a girl? Yes. By Sif? Never.

He gives Sif a sheepish grin, stuck behind bars with Mjolnir too far away to call.

Perhaps this was not one of my better plans.

Her entrance was prefaced by the sound of muffled exchanges of blows before at last appearing in the entry-way, primed to take on the next opponent. Upon espying him, she can't help but grin. The situation was grim, but the fact that he was unharmed relieved her.

"No, perhaps not." She starts toward his cell, considering her options for how to open it. "We must move swiftly. Loki still holds your mother hostage in Asgard, and your father is deep in the Odinsleep. But first we must go to Svartlheim and restore Mjolnir to you."

She frowns. "Neither of the guards I bested had the keys to your release."

Sorry this is late, I thought I replied to this!

Watching her take down the guards is able to put a grin on his face. Any person who thought she was not suitable as a warrior was (sometimes quite literally) sorely mistaken, and Thor had always supported her. But at the mention of the grim situation they were all in, his smile drops and a grim look settles in his eyes.

His not being able to form a coherent plan wasn't his fault. Not really. Loki was always then one who thought out all of their movements precisely while on adventures. And now, working on their own without Loki, things were considerably harder than before.

"Aye. Our situation would be greatly improved with Mjolnir by my side. I can not break out of this cell."

He had tried. The bars had stood resolute despite all of his strength, and he had not been able to do anything but pace in his cell until Sif appeared.

"Perhaps not alone, you cannot."

Sif sheathes her sword and reaches out to curl her fingers around the bars. "You push, and I shall pull." she says. Despite the solemnity and dire circumstances, there's a glint in her eye - this is an adventure! A challenge!

"Together?" she offers, and waits for him to join her.
