Ruinous Romantic Tension
a post-apocalyptic shipping and smut meme

Calamity makes strange companions, but when the world's gone topsy turvy, beggars can't be choosers. The world has ended, apocalypse is nigh, zombies are here, the evil empire has won, or you've crashed into a hostile planet...all roads have lead to the same ugly place. Survival has become your only goal, and two heads are less likely to be on the chopping block than one, so no matter if you're a people person or a lone wolf, you've found one other survivor - or they found you and gave you little choice - to be an extra lifeline and source of safety.

Your life before fades away into the gray. What remains is the drive to live through this, day by day, though you at least have someone to watch your back and help you with the grueling tasks before you.

Of course, the mind is a strange thing, which means even when tunnel vision comes standard with your troubles, thoughts and feelings can get jumbled. Relying on someone is a form of intimacy, perhaps an ultimate form, and could lead to dependency or other deep, conflicting feelings...feelings the two of you may just keep shoving deep down because that line of thought is far from safe. Not the right place. Not the right time. Repress it.

Until you just can't anymore.

tl;dr: "Two people are partners in a post-apocalyptic or other dark/"rough" setting who have been traveling together for a long time, depending on each other for survival. They've also been ignoring the unresolved sexual tension/attraction between them. One night while taking shelter, they finally give in and have sex even though they shouldn't, or they worry about how it will affect their partnership."

[ Technically has the spirit of a goddess in her but would be human here. Would make a decent hunter in a post-apocalyptic au.

As for smut, I'm okay with it, but I'd prefer to keep the smut light and focus more on the shipping. ]

[ zombie apocalypse is literally already canon for her (no really) but totally open to other general post apocalypse fuckery

ota for gen or ships or smut or whatever you wanna do, m/f, f/f whatever dudes come at me ]

[Shipping is okay too, but smut is preferred.]

[Preference for fluff over smut, open to zombies or any other kind of apocalypse setting!]

[Well, he's from the bad future already, could be AU, could Dragon Ball your character, or adapt his setting to your canon. Just remember, goatees mean evil alternate universes, swords mean bad futures.]
