For everyone looking to tag someone new!


The"Not My Fandom"Meme
Memeing is fun, but sometimes all of us get stuck in a rut! We keep looking around, afraid to tag people

There is but one rule in this meme! You may only tag characters from a canon that you have never seen the source material for. If you want to be extra-adventurous, try tagging a canon you've never even heard of, but that's not necessary (and would be a problem for muses from popular fandoms).

Head on over to RNG if you need ideas!
  1. Long Lost Sibling/Child/Parent/Relative: Even though you're from different universes, you're related somehow! Are you going to bail or make up for lost time?
  2. Blind Date: A friend of yours decided to set you up with some really awesome person! Will this be a hot date to remember, or a night to remember for all the wrong reasons?
  3. Hitchhiker: The person who posts is a lost hitchhiker, and the person tagging is the driver picking them up.
  4. YOU ARE AT A PARTY: OR SOMETHING. IT'S THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE.
  5. Cage Fight: There's bars all around you, and neither of you is getting out until you duke it out.
  6. The Afterlife/Astral Plane: You are dead, or otherwise having an out-of-body experience! Fortunately (or unfortunately?) everyone in all universes ends up together.
  7. Chatroom: You're using a client like Omegle and have just met the person tagging you! Horrible txt tlk, trolling, and other shenanigans are encouraged.
  8. Random: Either combine some of the above or make up your own scenario!

[ She pulls up beside him. There are boxes on the back seat and she has to take another one off of the passenger seat and shove it in back with the others. ]

Where are you headed?

East coast.

[All he had was a backpack and a nearly empty bottle of water in his hand. It was a hot day here in Iowa!]

[ She eyeballs him, and then shifts slightly just to make sure he can spot the handgun down beside her seat. ]

You're in luck. I'm on my way back there now. Anywhere specific?

New York.

[Oh, he sees it. He responds with a friendly smile.]

How far will you take me? I got some money for gas and some food.
boughtabookstore: (neg: do not impress me)

[personal profile] boughtabookstore 2012-02-06 07:01 am (UTC)(link)
I'm going there, so might as well take you the whole way. You buy your own food. If you want to chip in for gas too, you can, but it's not necessary.

[ She starts the car and pulls back into traffic. ]

Save your money for New York. It's an expensive city.

Sounds fair to me!

The name's Duo. [He says this as he opens the car door and slips inside, putting his bag at his feet.]

Roslyn.

[ Watching the road, but her eyes still flicker to him frequently. ]

Any particular reason for going to New York?

Got some friends out there offering me work, I'm not gonna turn them down.
boughtabookstore: (working)

[personal profile] boughtabookstore 2012-02-06 07:27 am (UTC)(link)
[ She smiles a little. ]

Good view of things. Can I ask what type of job?

[personal profile] stillshinigami 2012-02-06 07:40 am (UTC)(link)
[He nodded, relaxing into the seat and watching as the flat boring Iowa plains rolled on by.]

Mechanic. And hey. If we break down? No problem. I've even got a few parts with with me.
boughtabookstore: (pos: pride)

[personal profile] boughtabookstore 2012-02-06 07:55 am (UTC)(link)
That's good to know. I'm decent with engines but it's always nice to have a really skilled eye when there's trouble.

What do you do?

[personal profile] stillshinigami 2012-02-06 08:02 am (UTC)(link)
What do you do?

[OOC: fuck me, I didn't even notice I was logged off.]
boughtabookstore: (looking down / sad)

[personal profile] boughtabookstore 2012-02-06 08:21 am (UTC)(link)
I worked for the FBI until a week ago.

[OOC: haha, don't worry. I'm off to bed now, but will pick up again in the morning.]

[personal profile] stillshinigami 2012-02-06 08:22 am (UTC)(link)
What happened with that gig, if I can ask?
boughtabookstore: (low: eyes closed)

[personal profile] boughtabookstore 2012-02-06 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[ There's a long pause. When she answers, her voice is tight. ]

I quit.

It got old.

So late, sorry.

[personal profile] stillshinigami 2012-02-15 08:45 am (UTC)(link)
Sorry to hear that.

Guess you can only venture forth. Hey, your future is waiting.
