The Find a New Ship Meme




One of the best parts about RP is finding ships you never knew you wanted. But sometimes it's hard finding exactly what you want, especially when you don't know the other canon (if it's crossover interaction) OR the other mun. Well, this meme takes away the pressure and biases brought around by unfamiliar names or icons. It strips shipping down to what it should be about: chemistry.

There are two ways to play on this meme. The first is the OOC route. The second is a more challenging, but perhaps more fun, route of having your character fill out a personal's ad. The best part? It's all anon at the start.


- Pick whether you want to fill out the OOC form or the IC form.
- For the IC version, feel free to assume your character was forced into it.
- Comment anonymously.
- Reply to others if you have a character who fits what they're looking for. You can stay anon for a few comments, but then you can pull a BIG REVEAL.
- For the OOC version, you can just offer your character. For the IC version, you might even want to "play" a bit before you un-anon.
- This is catered more towards crossover ships, but don't let that stop you if you want to do something canon. Also, friend"ships" are fine, too.
- If you both agree that it would be an interesting combination to play out, feel free to take it to another meme or play a scene here.


SHORT DESCRIPTION OF YOUR CHARACTER: Remember, no names or other easy identifiers.
SHORT DESCRIPTION OF CHARACTERS SOUGHT: Don't ask for specific characters; rather, list character TYPES you/your character are interested in.
OTHER NOTES: Put anything else here, whatever that is.



DESCRIBE YOURSELF: Your character, of course, may lie about this.
LOOKING FOR: Friends, dating, etc.
WHAT YOU LOOK FOR IN A FRIEND/PARTNER: BIG BUTTS, NICE PERSONALITY.

SHORT DESCRIPTION OF YOUR CHARACTER: Totally batshit insane, but that's because he's been all alone with a corpse for years with virtually no contact with anyone else. He's very violent and takes glee in murder, but he's not a sociopath--he's fully capable of loving and is extremely loyal and protective of anyone who demonstrates a lot of kindness and helpfulness towards him in his time of need.
SHORT DESCRIPTION OF CHARACTERS SOUGHT: Being okay with murder, demonic worship, and his obsession with taking care of the aforementioned corpse that he's been with for the the past few years is sort of required before anything else.

Think of a 'tough mother' type of person--someone who would step in and save him if he's wounded, give him respect, and tolerate his off-color humor and random bouts of dancing, but who will also not put up with his shit (like, if he kills someone he specifically wasn't supposed to, getting punched and kicked for it). He needs an anchor for what sanity he has left, and in return, he'd be doggedly loyal, loving, and put up with a lot of abuse.
OTHER NOTES: Yeah... he's probably going to end up in a twisted relationship no matter what, so I'm totally up for it! Het is preferred, but if you have the perfect man for him, I'm totally up for it!
