The Thirst Trap Meme


 

Set a scene, get the right angle, reveal a little thigh, and snap! A thirst trap is a sexy photo posted on social media to attract attention. It can also refer to a person considered sexy—a social-media crush. Emerging from selfie culture, the well-staged thirst trap is a provocative photo, often with a coy or confident caption, that will trap (attract) thirst (attention, in the form of comments, likes, etc.).

 

Because, really, what’s the point of posting if no one is going to notice?
 

 

How it works:

 

- Post with your character name and fandom in the subject line. Include any prefs or no-no's.

- Comment with a link to an image of your character's very own thirst trap. To be safe, label them accordingly! (i.e., NSFW or not.)

- Tag around! Respond to others! Rate them, judge them, tell them what you wanna do to them.

- Think of this as the marriage between the Hot or Not Meme and the Rate That Ass Meme.

- Have fun and be excellent to each other!

[Tonbokiri easily picks up on the sadness in the Saniwa's voice, however small. Even if it's embarrassing for him, he doesn't want to disappoint his master.]

Ah, but...if Master doesn't mind, then it doesn't have to be taken down. I can just ask Muramasa to be more mindful next time.

[ oh no.. he's so endearing.

he smiles helplessly, shaking his head. ] Don't be silly, Tonbokiri. This is about your comfort. I just appreciate how nice you look, but you always look nice, so I can acknowledge that fact anytime.

[greatspear]

Well, I'm flattered that you think I look nice...though I do wish I didn't sweat so much before that picture was taken.

[Of course, Tonbokiri hasn't yet realized that the sweat is part of the appeal.]

[swordstho]

[ he crooks a finger over his mouth to try to hide the amusement, but it fails pretty spectacularly. ]

I-- I think that was sort of the point of the photo?

[greatspear]

Was it? Do people really find that much sweat appealing?

[If only Tonbo knew the kind of art people post on the internet...]

[swordstho]

Lots of people seem to! [ the saniwa usually has too much to do to give it much personal thought, but he can see the appeal.. ] Something about hard work being attractive, maybe..

[ who knows! ]

[greatspear]

Well, I like to think I work hard, for your and everyone else's sake. [Because it's important for him to uphold his master's reputation and help them achieve success, even if it's just through things like helping out around the citadel.]

I must admit, I'm not very well versed on what people find attractive...it all seems rather confusing at times.

[swordstho]

You work very hard. You could perhaps stand to take a break now and then. [ pot.. kettle. ]

I don't think you're alone there. I think it's probably part of being.. a person, finding standards of beauty confusing sometimes. I don't usually have time to give it a lot of thought myself.

[greatspear]

I suppose that could be it. Ever since you summoned me and I gained this body, I've experienced a lot of things I wouldn't have been able to before. Perhaps things like beauty and attraction are meant to be part of that.
