THE CHILDHOOD MEME

Childhood. That magical time between infancy and adulthood where you feel invincible. Where you haven't a care or responsibility in the world. It's a time where imagination runs wild and every day is a new adventure waiting to be had.

While there's plenty of fun out there in the world of adults, there's nothing that quite compares to the innocence of those early years. So, grab your juice box, your favorite toy and remember to be back before the streetlights come on.

HOW TO PLAY:

○ This meme is targeted toward the younger end of the age spectrum (15 and under), but that doesn't mean older characters aren't welcome. Does your character have a soft spot for children? Are they typically the type to be the babysitter? Or maybe they're the older sibling being dragged along to keep an eye on the younger one? Aging down is also an acceptable option, haven't we all wondered what our characters would have been like as kids?
○ Comment with your character, canon, preferences, and any other info you'd like to include.
○ Reply to others.
○ Thread and have fun!

1. PLAYGROUND/PARK : The spot where all the best childhood memories are made. Are you playing a game of tag? Are you hanging upside down on the jungle gym? Are you getting into trouble while your mom is catching up on the latest gossip?

2. SCHOOL : The place where 75% of your day is spent and lifelong friendships are forged. Maybe you're in art class, maybe you're at recess, or maybe you're on a school field trip. The possibilities are endless. Just don't be that kid eating paste.

3. MALL : For the kids on the older end of the spectrum. Whether you're at the arcade, whether you're meeting with friends, or whether your parents gave you twenty bucks to get out of their hair, you've got the entire shopping mall at your disposal.

4. CIRCUS : It's the greatest show on earth! Lion tamers! Acrobats! Elephants! Feats meant to stun and amaze you! Cotton candy the size of your head! Are you watching the show from the stands? Or is your family a part of the show?

5. THEME PARK/AMUSEMENT PARK : It's a classic vacation that's fun for the whole family. Are you the roller coaster type? Or are you the type to shy away from the thrill rides and stick to the carousel instead? Keep a hold of someone's hand, though, the only thing that can ruin a day is a lost child in the park.

6. FAIR/FESTIVAL/CARNIVAL : The theme park on a smaller scale. Sometimes the rides are a little shaky, but there's plenty of good deep fried foods and games to be played. Go out and win yourself a goldfish!

7. NEVERLAND : Yes, you read that right. Just like in Peter Pan, it's the magical place where no one has to ever grow up and adults aren't welcome. What kind of adventures will you get into? Remember, it only takes a little bit of fairy dust and good thoughts to fly.

8. WILDCARD : None of these work for you? Go ahead and created your own!

[ Offering high school Midnight for this meme! ]

[Kayama was usually part of the daily topic of young teenage boys during their break time. She was, after all, one of the prettiest girls in school. Even Teshima is aware of that, and how out of her league he is, and that's fine. These kinds of harmless chatter about pretty girls and silly fantasies about dating them were just that-- fantasies. Things that never happened to guys like him.

Now, it isn't as though he's unpopular. He's got a lot of friends and he gets along with both guys and girls, but he's not one of them. Not one of the elites who dream about taking a hero course. It was like the school was divided into two groups, and he was fine with that. His quirk wasn't suited for that.

So why, oh why, did he get roped into the cultural festival with her, both organizers? Life was so strange like that.]

What are your thoughts on these , Kayama-san?

[They were the last two in the room, going through a list of events to hold for their final cultural festival. So far, maid cafe seems to be the popular choice, but there were plenty of options submitted.]

(A bit psychopathic... just a warning.)

[ ooc — Up for anything here! Hugh comes from a canon that really suits "gifted" people, so fellow kids with ~unusual abilities or quirks~ would be great. Or maybe you're completely average and happen to bump into a bee-filled orphan somewhere! ]
