Interspecies Love Meme

Vampires and humans. Angels and demons. Ghosts and the living. The idea of "opposites attracting" is hardly a new one, but with the rise in popularity of supernatural creatures, aliens, and other sentient beings beyond our human understanding, the forbidden romance trope has been injected a shot of fresh blood- sometimes quite literally.

This meme does just that, taking the whole "not meant for each other" thing to it's most logical extreme. Of course, it's not always angst and depression. These days, mermaids and bird-people can have their relationships in peace to some degree.

Rules

• Comment with your character, putting any preferences you have (ie, "humanoid characters only," F/M, etc). Also, be sure to note your character's "species" for others to reference (Name | Character | OTA | Human, ghost, mutant, alien, vampire, god, zombie-catgirl hybrid, etc).
• Reply to others. If your characters aren't different species, feel free to AU or anything else like that.
• Use the rng to determine your prompt.
• Also I didn't think I needed to say this, but be excellent to each other. Dick comments and anon bullying are not on.

Prompts

1. Meeting: Did you know there were, I don't know, werewolves before this? Or maybe you thought all aliens were evil. Will this...thing change your perception?
2. Falling in Love: You know you're not the same, but your feelings don't care.
3. Self-Hate: Perhaps you're mad at the being you're in love with, yet you're more angry at yourself.
4. Can't Be Together: Whether for self-inflicted reasons or societal rules, you can't be in love with who your heart has chosen and it's putting a strain on you.
5. Pushing You Away: Things are getting too intense, and for both of your sake, you want to make friend/crush/lover hate you.
6. Beauty & the Beast: One of you is beautiful, the other hideous. Maybe, though, the beautiful one is ugly in the eyes of society, depending on where you live. Whatever the case is, you don't look the same.
7. Confession: Screw the rules, you're going to tell that sweet girl/guy/other how you feel! What can go wrong? Or this is something you've put a lot of thought into and you're scared, but you're going to do it.
8. First Time...or Not: Finally, the two of you are taking the next step and getting physical. It may go off without a hitch, depending on your...you know, or- OH GOD, HOW IS THAT GOING TO GO IN HERE. Wait, you have a...?
9. The Kinky Option: Hey, maybe being different will pay off. Think about it. A long tongue? Ghost powers? Sounds like it could be fun in the bedroom.
10. Prejudice: "What are you doing with that dirty monster?" "You know we can't be involved with humans!" "We don't take kindly to your type around here." Why can't people just leave you two be?
11. Facing Your Instinct: It's hard to be with someone when you want to suck their blood. Or eat their brains. Or possess them.
12. Because of Me: Your lover has been dragged into your fight or hurt by others of your kind. Now they're in the crossfire.
13. Standing Up For You: Hey, knock it off! I don't care what you think, he's perfect in my eyes.
14. You Don't Know You're Beautiful: The fluffy option where you're trying to make your loved one see just how much you care and how they're beautiful to you, no matter what.
15. Gifts: Show your affection with a gift from your culture.
16. Starting a Family: Can you even reproduce? Is it something you want to consider? Perhaps it's new ground to tread, so you'll have to be the first to think about it.

I hope an Orion is okay. | 1

[freebitchbaby]

The Normandy occasionally picked up new crewmembers but escaped Orion slave-girls were a new one in anyone's books. If only because Orions weren't as common on this side of the galaxy. Needless to say after a few days and lots of pleading and bargaining Gaila had managed to secure herself a place in the engineering department after proving her abilities as a programmer to Lt Adams.

As such, she was perfectly happy. She could sit and tinker with the ship's inner workings, under a watchful eye, and she was safe from any of the syndicate still coming after her. Today she'd been sent off to the main battery to see what she knew about that and report back what she'd learnt, so far she'd learnt that the screen was glowy and bright but she hadn't a clue of how to use it. She dared not go back too early and admit defeat in case they thought she was incompetent and decided to boot her out the airlock doors after all.

"Could be worse. Could sell you off to a pleasure house." She grumbled under her breath, still furiously trying to figure out how to use the screens.

1 and the setup alright?

[idkworldruler]

[You know this was supposed to be a very simple mission for him. Clear out a horde of undead then find and kill their master. So who was the blond that had taken care of the dead guys?] So do you normally pick up guys after killing a bunch of dead guys?

1, Meeting

[twilit_midna]

Midna picked her way delicately through the shambles of the old building, careful to avoid stepping on the broken glass that littered the floor. Didn't anyone clean up around here? Maybe she should have picked up some shoes for herself earlier, though she'd never had much use for them before.

There was someone on the floor, just inside. She made a face, and skirted around it. She might have changed her mind about the daylight-dwellers, but she still didn't particularly care for dead bodies. Hopefully she'd be able to find a quick bite to eat in here, and then leave.

[glowingly]

Most people don't believe that what robots experience is truly "love", not in the human sense. Robots may marry and have families, but only with each other. They have robot children. His choice to raise human orphans is a rarity, and he's had more than a little difficulty keeping custody of them, because it simply isn't done. Romance between a robot and a human is also looked on as unnatural. However humanlike robots are, they're still man-made, just machines. Aren't they?

Epsilon has come by to see Nina again. He's brought her some flowers, yellow roses. It's only a friendly gift. He knows they will never be anything more than friendly.

Does he feel regret? He isn't sure. He can't help what he is. He's learned how to feel love, but not regret. Is it something he wants to feel? Yes, he thinks he should learn the painful emotions along with the pleasant ones, but he isn't sure what emotion he's feeling at this moment, along with love.

"Hello." He offers her the flowers with a smile. "It's good to see you, Nina."

Yukina | Yu Yu Hakusho | F/M | Demon

[crylittlesister]

[Yukina is an ice demon/apparition from a race without men. Her kind reproduce asexually and live on a floating island away from everyone else. However, she's disavowed their way of life and left, criticizing them for being too cold.

That's the short version. The long version is here, with completely optional NSFW headcanon here.]

vaguely 4-shaped I guess? I never know what I'm doing.

[machizumo]

[ It's more like 'can we?,' rather than 'we can't.' Nothing's definite, here. It's never been definite, really, and it's been years. Kuwabara's loved Yukina since fourteen, and it hasn't diminished since. The reason he's dwelling on this isn't because he feels less towards her, but because he's wondering if he should.

He's come to realize that adulthood is rushing towards him. Every step in the right direction confirms it. University is happening, and very soon he'll have to figure out what he wants to do with the rest of his life. That'll seal the deal, start the final motion towards a normal, human life. In all honesty, it's not too bad a thought. There's definitely certain, 'normal' things that he wants out of life.

He's just not sure if Yukina wants those things, or if she's even considered them. And, anyway, how do you even get around to asking somebody if they'd like to waste sixty more years on an inevitable widowing? It might all be selfish, in the first place.

Point being, if he needed to let it go... If it had to be done, shouldn't he start? Shouldn't he get this straightened out, weigh everything, hit some kind of epiphany? Something like that?

It's a nice enough day. The weather's warming and the atmosphere around Genkai's is peaceful, which isn't a surprise. He'd proposed a walk around the grounds without really intending to broach the subject, but he's mind had wandered and everything here felt safe enough. He paused in his stride for a moment. ]

Hey, Yukina-san, can I ask you something?

Not that - Right, listen, not that we can't be lofty. Been to the moon, I have. Don't think any human's quite done that, yeah? [He tumbles back and forth a bit, seeming proud.]
