Spend my li(f)e with you




Being with someone can change your life. But what if you can't have your old life back? For your own sake, the sake of your relationship, or by no choice of your own, you have to leave the old you behind. It can go from anything to changing a behavior to changing your whole identity, and all of it can be difficult. One thing is clear, however; to continue where or as you'd lived before is not an option if you want to keep this person you care for in your life.

how to play;
  • Comment with your character and preferences.
  • Respond to others.
  • THERE WILL BE QUESTIONABLE CONTENT. Just because it's a shipping meme doesn't means everything's fluffy; in fact, more options than not have some unfortunate implications.


prompts;
  1. Open Secret: You two have never specifically said who you are in this new place, though you've never denied it.
  2. Witness Protection: To protect your lives, you must live under assumed identities.
  3. Your Real Life: What you knew before was false. This is the actuality.
  4. After a Tragedy: All your friends are dead. Your group is shaken. You saw someone you love murdered. The only other person you have left is the one you're with.
  5. Second Chance at Life: After a brush with death, you've decided to do things right and actually live.
  6. I Don't Want this Life, Dean: You don't want to continue in the family business - er, in your old ways set up by someone else, so you cling to someone who can give you a normal life.
  7. Criminal: You did a bad thing and are wanted. For your protection and the safety of the one you lo...that person, you have to hide.

  8. Turning Over a New Leaf: You're genuinely trying to become a better person and you can't do that with the reminders of your old home and old life.
  9. Rehabilitation: Your lover is helping you get over your wounds, your traumas, or your flaws.
  10. Blank Slate: You have to have a new life because you don't know your old one! All you know is the person you're with and the things they can tell you.
  11. Partners in Crime: You two are rough around the edges, but you're reformed. Really, you just want a peaceful life!

  12. Old Habits Die Hard: No matter what your life is now, you can't shake the need to double check the locks or hold your magic wand tight.
  13. Guilt: You're guilty about your relationship, so you have to reside in hiding.
  14. Through Elicit Means: You got with your partner through cheating and you want to keep that fact on the low.
  15. Stolen Away: You stole your partner - from a bad situation or from someone cruel - so you have to keep your heads down
  16. Taboo:
    1. Incest: It's better for you to live where no one know's you're related.
    2. Age Difference: You can always fake IDs and birth certificates.
    3. Interspecies: There has to be somewhere that doesn't have the prejudices of your home.
  17. Tyrannical Government: You're political enemies drawn together. Perhaps you're working to undermine the government, or maybe you've escaped from that place and are living in peace.
  18. Pulled from the Darkness: Your previous life was so terrible, you don't want to even ponder it any more. End of story, it doesn't matter.
  19. Dependent: You don't know anyone else in this new world of yours, or you don't know how to navigate it, making you dependent on your partner.
  20. Protecting Them: You're with them and hiding them for their own benefit.
  21. They Don't About Your Past:
    1. Secret Monster: If they knew about who you used to be, they'd be disgusted and want nothing to do with you.
    2. For Them: You're dangerous to be around, so you can't clue them in lest an old enemy or your own abilities come back and harm them.
    3. Florence Nightingale: They found you and took you in to help you, no questions asked. You couldn't help but fall for them.
  22. Using Them: This new life is just a sham. You want them to be your camouflage, maybe even getting others to believe you've changed.
  23. Faked Turned Real:
  24. Both of you were using each other for cover, but now...you're not sure.
  25. Brainwashing:
    1. One-Sided: You love them and want them to believe that things have always been like this. Can you be blamed for going about it this way?
    2. Mutual: Both of you think you've always lived this life, thanks to outside forces.
  26. Who Am I, Really?: You love your partner, but you feel like you're losing yourself.
  27. WILDCARD

teddy flood / westworld

[personal profile] gunslung 2018-07-13 03:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ota, open to crosscanon and ocs. voicetesting!

teddy's whole schtick is that he's an android trapped in an amusement park's programmed story, so give him all that Ripe Free Will. ]

[personal profile] wearejerry 2018-07-13 06:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[So...while I know nothing about Westworld, Teddy seems like he would be an interesting encounter for Jerry, who is canonically an amusement park worker android that recently attained free will. It's possible he could spread the "software glitch" that freed him to Teddy if you're looking for that kind of scenario.]
gunslung: (Default)

[personal profile] gunslung 2018-07-14 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
[ Oh man, I'm totally up for this! In his canon Teddy was reprogrammed to have more violent tendencies despite his kindhearted nature, which I figure might be an interesting point if they're trying to live a new life together? REGARDLESS.

They could have escaped together and are now trying to live like "normal humans", if that works for you! ]

[ okay, so, Dev here is such a goddamn bleeding heart for hard luck cases--I think Teddy qualifies, really--and also happens to be a hereditary witch with some pretty impressive tricks in her family spellbook, and is usually in the market for some sort of bodyguard/protector/ect, if we can swing deets that way. I'm ace with world-building and would love to sling some science and magic around and see what happens. Interested, y/n? ]

[ you've probably heard the story before: two souls from different parts of the land, on opposite sides of a tense and tenuous political struggle between two neighboring kingdoms. she a princess, the adopted daughter and niece of the yukari kingdom's king, christened after the original king and queen had been declared lost at sea eight years ago. he, ward of kingdom konoha's village "witch doctor," every bit a property and an afterthought of the kingdom's complicated bureaucracy. different in every way, and all the ways that matter, they are two people who, for all intents and purposes, should have never had any reason to meet...

but the universe work in mysterious ways, and calculating councils even more so.

the official word is this: after seven long years of increasing political strife and tension, the weary kingdoms strike up a truce. an offer of unity. yukari's seventeen year old princess will wed konoha's brideless hokage, twenty-two years her senior. for the first time in a long time, both kingdoms breathe a sigh of relief. finally, peace.

but in the middle of the journey from yukari to konoha, the princess's entourage is ambushed, and by the time additional yukari forces make it to the scene, all that is left are the princess' perished guards, a konoha shuriken, and no sign of the princess.

war is declared the very next morning, with both side equally enraged and insulted, neither willing to acquiesce or compromise further.

the true story is this: yukari had been looking for an excuse to declare war for years, and this was the perfect opportunity. they had staged the ambush, disguising some of their own as konoha warriors. similarly, konoha had grown tired of yukari's political ambiguity, and once fingers were officially pointed at them, did not hesitate to call arms in retaliation. when their own forces returned to confirm that konoha tactics were indeed used during the ambush, they did not buckle. they had no official hand in the actual incident, but they would no longer cow down to the neighboring kingdom, and risk showing their allies and enemies alike any weakness.

the story behind the story is this: the princess was not meant to be missing, but one of the dead bodies instead. the fallen yukari guards were not the only ones to die that day, but other body, the one belonging to konoha's witch doctor, has been taken away and cremated after suffering too many wounds attempting to protect both the princess, and his foolhardy apprentice who couldn't turn away from the cries of a person in danger.

it's only been two days since then, and lilina and naruto haven't gotten much farther than a handful of miles from the site of the ambush, still neck-deep in the winding woods. they are tired, worn, and grieving, both desperate to hear from their respective kingdoms, but also wary of what they might find once contact is made. as of now, the only definite plan is this: survive until the next day, and maybe then they find themselves closer to one of their kingdoms.

or, at the very least, an answer... ]


Shoot...

[ a droplet of blood, and then another. lilina sucks her finger into her mouth, frowning down at the thorny bush that had pricked her, its ripe berries nestled tauntingly just a little too far out of her reach. ]

I remembered something today.

[ It doesn't happen often. All Sasuke has is what he's told - he's a shinobi; Naruto, Sakura and Kakashi are his squadmates; he's an orphan, like so many; he'd broken about a thousand shinobi laws and was probably going to get stinkeye from most of the village until everyone, including him, reacclimated to his presence in Konoha. For now it's easier to stay inside, and he and Naruto had been provided with a two-bedroom apartment because Naruto knew the most about him, was the one he'd been closest to. So he's been told. But while he's living with an earnest and kind stranger, he's still living with a stranger. Still getting caught off-guard by quirks and habits of the others that are so second-nature to them that they startle when he startles. ]

[ Their first fight had been about Naruto appending teme to his name, or using it instead of his name, like it was a pet name. Apparently it was, in fact, but that... doesn't mean Sasuke likes it now. Naruto's at least been working on it, though he still slips up sometimes. Sasuke tries not to get angry. ]

[ He still doesn't know what to do with the look on Kakashi's face when Sasuke called him sensei at the beginning of Sharingan training. He can't believe that, whoever he was, he'd never once called the other that. He's squad leader, isn't he? Was their jounin mentor? Everything is strange. ]

[ Today's strangeness, which Sasuke relates with his hands tight around a mug of unsweetened green tea, is old and tarnished, but too real to be a dream. ]

Did I have a brother?
