Childhood meme


THE CHILDHOOD MEME

Childhood. That magical time between infancy and adulthood where you feel invincible. Where you haven't a care or responsibility in the world. It's a time where imagination runs wild and every day is a new adventure waiting to be had.

While there's plenty of fun out there in the world of adults, there's nothing that quite compares to the innocence of those early years. So, grab your juice box, your favorite toy and remember to be back before the streetlights come on.

HOW TO PLAY:

○ This meme is targeted toward the younger end of the age spectrum (15 and under), but that doesn't mean older characters aren't welcome. Does your character have a soft spot for children? Are they typically the type to be the babysitter? Or maybe they're the older sibling being dragged along to keep an eye on the younger one? Aging down is also an acceptable option, haven't we all wondered what our characters would have been like as kids?
○ Comment with your character, canon, preferences, and any other info you'd like to include.
○ Reply to others.
○ Thread and have fun!




1. PLAYGROUND/PARK : The spot where all the best childhood memories are made. Are you playing a game of tag? Are you hanging upside down on the jungle gym? Are you getting into trouble while your mom is catching up on the latest gossip?

2. SCHOOL : The place where 75% of your day is spent and lifelong friendships are forged. Maybe you're in art class, maybe you're at recess, or maybe you're on a school field trip. The possibilities are endless. Just don't be that kid eating paste.

3. MALL : For the kids on the older end of the spectrum. Whether you're at the arcade, whether you're meeting with friends, or whether your parents gave you twenty bucks to get out of their hair, you've got the entire shopping mall at your disposal.

4. CIRCUS : It's the greatest show on earth! Lion tamers! Acrobats! Elephants! Feats meant to stun and amaze you! Cotton candy the size of your head! Are you watching the show from the stands? Or is your family a part of the show?

5. THEME PARK/AMUSEMENT PARK : It's a classic vacation that's fun for the whole family. Are you the roller coaster type? Or are you the type to shy away from the thrill rides and stick to the carousel instead? Keep a hold of someone's hand, though, the only thing that can ruin a day is a lost child in the park.

6. FAIR/FESTIVAL/CARNIVAL : The theme park on a smaller scale. Sometimes the rides are a little shaky, but there's plenty of good deep fried foods and games to be played. Go out and win yourself a goldfish!

7. NEVERLAND : Yes, you read that right. Just like in Peter Pan, it's the magical place where no one has to ever grow up and adults aren't welcome. What kind of adventures will you get into? Remember, it only takes a little bit of fairy dust and good thoughts to fly.

8. WILDCARD : None of these work for you? Go ahead and created your own!

Have you ever been to Hot Topic and been very unimpressed with how unhelpful and negligent the staff is?

Congratulations this is Tharja. She is very unhelpful, and seems to be disgusted with the idea of you existing at all, let along bothering her.

She's very busy drawing seven pointed stars in a notebook. If you bug her enough she might cast a hex on you to make you go away.

[That's too bad, because this customer looks almost as edgy as her, and he's giving her a judgmental glare. Look, he's even peering over her shoulder at the plain ol' stars she's drawing.]

... Let me guess. You saw people posting about witchcraft on the internet and decided to try it out for yourself?

[ Tharja snaps her notebook shut. ]

Let me guess, you tried to give yourself a nosejob and the mask is why you're covering it up?

[ Whatever, the internet was fine to get magical spells as long as you knew what was real and what wasn't like she did. ]

[There's a subtle twitch in his eye. Other than that, his irritation is unreadable.]

I was going to suggest some good resources on magic and sorcery, depending on what you specialize in... But if you're going to insult me like that, I have no reason to assist you.

[Yes. He likes this spooky occult stuff. It's part of human culture. How dare you snub him.]
