THING I'D CHANGE

Because nobody's perfect!

HOW TO PLAY
↺ Forget those blank comments, info in the subject, usual memes. In this meme, we use the subject line to put the one thing our characters would change about themselves whether they'd usually admit it to anyone or not. Their choice can be a physical, mental, or emotional one, a personality trait, a past mistake or choice, whichever's the most dramatic.
↺ Then: welcome to the peanut gallery! Everybody else comments.
↺ You know that's the meme.

I don't want to have scurvy anymore and I want to make a friend so I can share my cookie

[ourlittlenordicangel]

[ Swede wants to change a lot! He is worried about being ugly and smelly and being sick but he mostly wants to share the cookie he just found. ]

I'd save the world without getting naked for once.

[zenura_weave]

[Look the nudity makes her stronger so like, it's hard to not use it okay?]

[holeyjudgment]

H-how many times have you saved the world by getting naked?

[zenura_weave]

Um... at least a hundred?

[holeyjudgment]

Wow. I haven't saved anything that much, and I've never done it naked.

[zenura_weave]

Yeah well... It's kind of the same world? Only alternate realities.

[The fact this is a weird place between worlds means she remembers it.]

[holeyjudgment]

Oooh. ...I don't really get it, but that's still impressive.

[zenura_weave]

[She shrugs.]

I've lived it and I don't even get it, miss.

I want the power to eat as much tasty food as I want without gaining weight

[subject_f]

And I know, I know I shouldn't put as much stock in other people's unfair beauty standards, but it's... hard not to sometimes.

[lasthungrywolf]

Eeeh..? ...huh. I wouldn'a thought anybody'd be givin'ya a hard time 'bout that... I mean y'look amazin', so...

[It's either wisdom or just obliviousness or maybe a bit of each.]

[subject_f]

Oh, girls my age can be vicious. I get off light for a variety of reasons, and I've gotten stuff about my weight too.

[lasthungrywolf]

Tch.... I mean... I guess I can't kick their asses just fer talkin' shit...

[He ruffles his hair, glancing aside pensively. He really doesn't like letting someone get away with hurting anyone he likes, whether physically or otherwise, but even he figures that's probably way overreacting.]

...I'd tell'em off for ya, but Idunno if that'd help none, comin' from anybody like me, but uh... I guess if ya needed somebody t'remind ya that crap ain't real, I could 'least do that..

[It doesn't seem like quite enough, but he knows having a stubborn friend/cheerleader to build you up and categorically reject whoever's trying to get in your head can help.]

Eight centimeters. That's all I'm asking.

[flatcola]

It's not too much to ask, right?

[ ...she's way past the age where she's growing at all though. ]

[strongestcoward]

[ Tower up here at like 7', Asura scratches his head through his mask. ]

You look so cute that small, though.

[flatcola]

I can't even reach the normal short people shelves.

[strongestcoward]

...Cute.

[ It is! It's super cute! ]

I, on the contrary, have to duck through every opening. You should appreciate what you have a little more.

[flatcola]

It's annoying. Let's just average our heights out.

[strongestcoward]

Sure-

[ Asura links the fingers of his hands and pushes on the top of his head- squish! He can mould himself. It's how he got those natty scarves made out of his body. It makes a cartoonish smooching sound as he reduces himself to like... 5'5. His already baggy pants go from pooling at his feet to oceaning at his feet, and his sleeves nearly touch the ground. ]

Your turn.

[ He waits expectantly, pointing with his sleeve dangling. ]

whatever it is that makes supervillains hate me for no reason at all

[adultflash]

"You saved people instead of me" doesn't count as a reason either, seriously.

whatever it is that makes supervillains want to marry me for no reason at all

[agoddessonce]

[ she is Tired. ]

[adultflash]

Okay, I'm not sure that's actually better...

[agoddessonce]

Both are worth changing, I think.

[adultflash]

Probably, though I don't know how you could make someone not want to marry you. Be really rude to them? Supervillains might like that though, hm.

[agoddessonce]

I don't think rudeness or politess matter to them, really.

But I'd appreciate any advice. It has been a problem for years.

[adultflash]

Well, you could pretend to be totally oblivious? It works for me except I'm not pretending.
