For the fluffy smut, please make a fluffy date option.

Why does there have to be TONS of options? I get tired of memes with too many options because I do not use RNG and there's too much to pick from. Why not split up the options into two memes, post one of them, then the next time post the other. It would break up the monotony of the same memes posted all the time.

more non-shippy memes (or not exclusively shippy - with romantic and gen options) are always good. does anyone have any ideas up their sleeves?

[(Anonymous)]

I liked the reunion meme

[(Anonymous)]

What about girls night out or boys night out for non-shippy. I'm always looking for threads for my characters already in relationships that aren't shippy but just friends memes. I love my shippy threads but I'd love to do friendship threads, too.

[(Anonymous)]

I have this strange like of "bromances" and girlfriends where the characters are just strictly close friends. I love the idea of non-shippy memes. I'm not against shipping memes at all, but some variety or focusing on other relationships that are important in someone's life is always nice and interesting to me.

Was there ever a "Road Not Taken" meme? You could play your characters out as if a particular crucial event in their life had gone differently.

[(Anonymous)]

That's like the AU meme isn't it?

[(Anonymous)]

Not sure if this has been done before, but a secret agents meme? CIA, MI5, KGB, Mossad, whatever floats your boat. Maybe someone's crashing in on your mission, or maybe it's an official joint outing. Either way, learn to get along? (Or something.)

I'd also love more modern history memes, like being set in the 20s (though I guess the film noir was kind of like that), etc.

[(Anonymous)]

Been thinking about a secret agents/spy one, but if you ever want to write one, yeah. It'll be interesting.

IDK, though, Noir is more 40s, 50s. A straight up rum-running 20s prohibition doesn't exist from what I recall.

I'd really been hoping for a James Bond style one. Femme/homme fatales and tuxedos and things disguised as less dangerous things.

shipping with a twist?

[(Anonymous)]

Non-popular ships meme or, if popularity is too hard to judge, non-canon ships meme? REALLY uncertain about what kind of interest level there would be though.

[(Anonymous)]

dress up meme! options for all the different reasons you'd get dressed up (wedding, graduation, party, award ceremony, date, ect.)

[(Anonymous)]

This sounds interesting.

A version of the everybody tags everybody meme which actually works would be really nice.

[(Anonymous)]

Maybe a rule that if you're gonna post in the thread, you have to tag at least one person.

Same thing with the 'tag three new people' meme. People post their characters but most of them never make the effort to tag anybody.

And entire storyline in one meme.

Re: Meme idea

[(Anonymous)]

Just curious . . . how would that work? One person tag with the start of a story and others tag and continue on?

[(Anonymous)]

Torture meme?

I can't remember if we've had one, but I am really in the mood.

[(Anonymous)]

It'd only work if you're looking to play the torturer, since nobody on Bakerstreet will be anything but a victim.

I'd like to see more random memes (non-shippy or smut ones) or holiday themed ones to break up the monotony. There are a ton of holidays and festivals all over the world year round, and I am sure a lot of people could come up with great ideas, especially if the holiday comes from their own culture!

But maybe ones that are less well known or celebrated so they are more interesting, because I am sure a lot of people are used to seeing Valentine's Day and Christmas.

I do plan to put up a Halloween meme on the 29th, so that will be a sort-of start!

[(Anonymous)]

YES!

[(Anonymous)]

I'd like more adventure/AU memes, like that survival one we had a while back. Most of my characters don't go well with relationships, and only some are fit for parties, but I adore the kind where you fight zombies or go to space or whatever.

[(Anonymous)]

^this, so much this

[exorcising]

Since Halloween is coming up, I'm thinking memes based on either one man hide and seek or the midnight game.

[(Anonymous)]

I would love this shit. Maybe Three Kings (http://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/wbo0u/please_dont_actually_try_this/) as well... I'm sure there are more ritual games like that. One of them could get their own meme, or there could be a meme with a few different options to it.

[(Anonymous)]

Fairy Tale meme. It would probably be AU considering characterizations, but to throw a character into a setting of one of the "classic" or "known" fairy tales. There would be lots of options of settings and characters. No one would be limited to playing the princess/prince, but they can be the characters like the evil stepsisters, wicked witch, one of the seven dwarfs, or some other character. And it doesn't have to be limited to the modern ones or even the ones within the North American culture.
