Thirst Trap meme!

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!

Nooooo. Just... for me? Please?
selfburn: (Hiding)

[personal profile] selfburn 2020-06-27 03:24 pm (UTC)(link)
You... want to look at me?

[personal profile] lavorre 2020-06-27 03:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes! Is... um, is that okay? I mean...
selfburn: (Clean)

[personal profile] selfburn 2020-06-27 03:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I suppose. But... wouldn't rather admire Fjord? Or Beau? The ones with muscles? And not pale skin?

[personal profile] lavorre 2020-06-27 03:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Well.... they're really pretty too but I, like, kind of...

[ Aaaaah how do you do this?????? ]

I think you're very handsome, okay!
selfburn: (Smitten)

[personal profile] selfburn 2020-06-27 04:08 pm (UTC)(link)
... okay.

[ That's very surprising. ]

[personal profile] lavorre 2020-06-27 04:27 pm (UTC)(link)
You aaare, though! You're not as skinny anymore and you have all those freckles and those pretty hands and you're just very nice, okay?
selfburn: (Amused)

[personal profile] selfburn 2020-06-27 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He will never stop blushing now. ]

Pretty is a word for you, Jester. Not for me.

[personal profile] lavorre 2020-06-27 05:02 pm (UTC)(link)
This is really awkward, right? I made it stupid!
selfburn: (Listening)

[personal profile] selfburn 2020-06-27 05:09 pm (UTC)(link)
I tend to make everything awkward. You are fine.

You are also pretty. You should know that.

[personal profile] lavorre 2020-06-27 05:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Aww, Caaaay-leb are you secretly in love with me?

[personal profile] lavorre 2020-06-27 05:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Then you should kiss me!
selfburn: (Intense)

[personal profile] selfburn 2020-06-27 05:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He leans down and kisses her cheek because he is a coward. ]

[personal profile] lavorre 2020-06-27 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[ The disappointment is palpable. ]

...do you think I'm a child, too, Caleb?
selfburn: (Injured)

[personal profile] selfburn 2020-06-27 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
I think you are a very good person and I am not.

There's... more blood on my hands than you know.

[personal profile] lavorre 2020-06-27 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
You say that a lot, but it's not technically true, is it? Technically.

It wasn't your fault! We mess up sometimes but that's us messing up, you know? You didn't even do the messing up, magic did!
selfburn: (Flashback)

[personal profile] selfburn 2020-06-27 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Jester.

[ He takes her hands in his and holds them gently. ]

You have to understand a lot of what I did... torture, execution, I did willingly for the Empire. No magic coerced me. Some of them were probably innocent but it did not matter to me then. Nothing mattered but serving the empire.

[personal profile] lavorre 2020-06-27 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She smiles and takes his hands. ]

Because that was all they told you! If you really were a person like that, we would never have met you and you wouldn't feel bad about those things. So you're really just a good person that did bad things, and that's okay.
selfburn: (Hiding)

[personal profile] selfburn 2020-06-28 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
I did something unforgivable, Jester, and that... broke me. I wasn't good enough for them anymore.

And only after I met you all did I start to feel bad about some of the things I had done. Before it wasn't... that much at all.

You are a smart, clever, talented, beautiful woman. You deserve better than me. Someone who is not broken.

[personal profile] lavorre 2020-06-28 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
You got better, Caleb. You told Essek he could change because you did. It's stupid to say you're not a good person and that you're broken because I look at you and I don't see that.

It's not about deserving. Nobody deserves anything! What about what I want?
selfburn: (Burn)

[personal profile] selfburn 2020-06-28 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
I am not... a fairy tale prince. I don't want you hurt when you learn what awful things I've done.

Things I am... probably still capable of doing if the situation calls for it.

[personal profile] lavorre 2020-06-28 02:17 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't want a fairytale prince anymore. I know that the things are not like they are in the books.

You can keep saying that and I'll still like you, Caleb. You do so many nice things.
selfburn: (Smitten)

[personal profile] selfburn 2020-06-28 02:20 pm (UTC)(link)
You are... too good Jester.

[ Caleb rested his forehead against hers. ]

Of course I love you. How could I not?

[personal profile] lavorre 2020-06-28 02:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Oooh, that's so cute! She gets a little purplish at her cheeks, smiling. ]

See? That's a nice thing that makes me really happy.
