We can be immortals - but not for long

The Immortal & Mortal Romance Meme
You'll outlive this person, it's a given. Their lifespan compared to yours is but a speck, an ant in the eyes of a god. You're immortal - or, at least, extremely long-lived - and they're doomed to die. Yet, somehow, you've begun to love them. Will you nip this in the bud and try to cut things out from the root...or will you let yourself be set up for inevitable loss?

how to play;
  • Comment with your character and your preferences (ie, m/f, no smut, etc). Also, be sure to include what part your character will play, otherwise you become nearly impossible to tag.
  • Reply to others.
  • Use my prompts or make up your own.


prompts;
  1. unspoken: There's something between you that is more than platonic, and you both understand it though you've never discussed it.
  2. pursuit: Someone admits their feelings; an attempt at courtship may begin, though what qualifies as "courtship" or "dating" may differ between the two of you.
  3. push them away: You, the immortal, know you'll only watch the mortal die and no matter how you view them, you want them to look for someone better. So you'll try to drive them away from you.
  4. inexperienced experience: Despite your many, many, many years, you actually have no experience in romance...or in sex.
  5. unique show of affection: When you've been on this earth as long as you have, you may have ways to show your love that are beyond the norm.
  6. actually forbidden: Your long-lived race is forbidden from romantically fraternizing with the ones
  7. accept it: Damn all the consequences, you both know the risks. You want to be together.
  8. lovemaking: The obligatory smut option. Is it as you'd expect, or do your differences raise their heads here, too?
  9. differences: Speaking of differences, your cultures and your experiences sometimes clash. Do you work through them and learn from it or does one of you get frustrated?
  10. condescending: Despite your years, it's important to remember to not be patronizing to your partner.
  11. make the most: You only have a limited time together. Make every moment count.
  12. baby mine: The two of you have an offspring. Who do they take more after...and will they have their immortal parent's traits?
  13. come and go: A partner who has lived for centuries or longer may find themselves drifting away or finding they need to keep traveling as they always have, but they know there's always one place and one person they can return to.
  14. i watched you change: You can only watch them grow older and weaker. They may doubt your love now that they are not as young or beautiful as they once were. There is no need for that.
  15. the end of the line: Your love cannot keep them alive, but you will be with them in their last moments.

There are some hints in her canon that she may not properly age, being 'out of synch' with the normal flow of time, and I'd love to play that out? Or she can be the one aging, in both cases she's avaiaible.

It was a fact of life. Carol was getting older.

Sure she met Thor when she was working with the Avengers. Sure she was young and spry when she was coaxing Kamala out of her shell and taking her out on adventures with her, Chloe and the other young Future Avengers.

And yet, at the age of sixty, Carol didn't seem to be slowing down.

Maybe it was the powers that still coursed through her body, but when she stumbled that morning at coffee at Avengers Tower, maybe that was a sign. A sign she was already growing weaker with age.

[ He's noticed a few things in the decade since he married Gwen and made her his consort. For one, he has yet to find a single silver strand in her hair, or even the slightest hint that she was thirty-five and the mother of two, but no, she looked the same as the day he married her, a fresh-faced twenty-five, even without her usual glamour.

Gwen will find Orm in the library, in an older section that was clearly in need of some cleaning. And with occasional bits of colorful language, especially after a small cascade of books falls on his head. ]
