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.

…Easy. I’d stop being such a jerk to my best friend.

[headhooligan]

(ooc: If you’re in the mood for angst, there’s a canon version where said friend died—but if this isn’t explicitly requested, I will default to the nicer ending with no fatal consequences. Potential cw suicide in either ’verse; may be alluded to in the nice version, but inevitable in the other one.

(That said, subject line is vague for a reason. Totally game for lighter antics, too, or anything in between; surprise me!)

all content is fine with me! would love the angst version

[thecoordinate]

Why are you in the first place, then?

You must have some reason.

[He does.]

I just wanna be taller! And stronger, while I’m at it.

[orange8ro]

[Says the teenage boy at the upper end of 5'something". With, if you’ll allow for headcanon, some visible arm muscle to boot.]

I'd make myself be able to play the guitar, I guess?

[trashmetal]

[orange8ro]

Hey, you can change that! [Said encouragingly, not like an accusation—but with enough sudden, loud enthusiasm it could be heard either way.]

Ohhh... the whole... everything.

[ourlittlenordicangel]

[ He can't look sadder! His self-esteem is pretty bad. ]

Maybe... for my teeth to go back in... and... no scurvy...? And... less ugly? And less shy... too...

I could make everyone friendship bracelets... and sing for them?

[headhooligan]

[Well, far as Aubrey can tell, everything this guy says about himself is right-on. And, in a mild assumption that the canonblind mun will edit out if needed, he kinda smells.

But…] Friendship bracelets are kinda nice, I guess. And you could, uh. [He at least looks disheveled, right?] Clean up a bit.

I'd never ask to go to Europe and find other vampires.

[fifille]

I would have said I love you.

[interviewwiththevampire]

[cosmiccowboy]

Is it too late?

How weak I am. If not... then that I lost control.

[rosarianrebirth]

[zettaflair]

What should I say, then?

I'd get rid of my curse, obviously... and maybe be less of an ass?

[catsgothistongue]

[come_binky]

I ᴍᴀʏ ʙᴇ ᴡʀᴏɴɢ...

[He doesn't know much about curses, hilariously. They don't ever effect him directly and usually people trying to summon him for one are about to die anyway from gross negligence of some kind. He's never actually had to deal with one. That said:]

Bᴜᴛ I ᴛʜɪɴᴋ ɪᴛ ɪs ᴇɴᴛɪʀᴇʟʏ ᴘᴏssɪʙʟᴇ ᴛᴏ ʙᴇ ʟᴇss ᴏғ ᴀɴ ᴀss ʀɪɢʜᴛ ɴᴏᴡ.

I'd stop myself from screwing everything up for me and my group

[shitbirdistheword]

I'd have said something sooner .

[duckshaveears]

Even ten minutes sooner might've done, but preferably a lot sooner.

It's too late for it now, but I would have maybe tried a little harder to be a better person.

[fire_starter]

[dreamingofburgers]

That's not true! It's never too late to try and be a better person!

Simple. I would be an adult and not stuck looking like a child.

[scarletbratprincess]

[ This vampire is smol. ]

[dreamingofburgers]

... Are you an adult though?

[Sorry smol vampire, the smol cabbit boy is confused whether or not you're supposed to be a child or adult.]

I'd like to look at people without getting hurt by it.

[emperorsway]

....or get rid of that habit of always smiling in order to protect myself, maybe? It never worked to begin with, anyway.

[mommacat]

[ Fai feels called out by that second half so he'll focused on the first. ]

Looking at people hurts you... That sounds hard. Are you cursed?

I'd be a son my mother could love

[ifrittheoutlaw]

Or maybe be stronger so I can be a better shield.

i have no wee icons...

[rosarianrebirth]

She is the only one who could know you and not love you - so I would think the flaw with her, not you.

And you have ever been the best shield.

I'd kill that old bastard Geo a helluva lot faster!

[pervy_inuyasha]

I'd be better at my job and being a hero.

[dancethroughthedanger]

[bahahahaha]

Being a hero is overrated anyways! Ahahaha!

I'd be even smarter than I already am. Also, potentially an only child~

[bahahahaha]

[ Cue insane, uncontrollable laughter.mp3-- ]

I'd drown my firstborn at birth. Besides that, wouldn't change anything. I'm perfect already.

[healwayscomesback]

[thecoordinate]

[Make no mistake. He doesn’t sound particularly disturbed by the notion, but still:]

Why’s that?

I'd be stronger and not be so weak

[doesntmeatthecriteria]

I never would have agreed to work for MI5 in the first place.

[dossiered]

I ᴡᴏᴜʟᴅ ʟɪᴋᴇ ᴇʏᴇʙʀᴏᴡs.

[come_binky]

[His expression is unreadable, being that he is a bare skull, and that's really the whole problem. Does anyone have a sharpie?]

[43753493457345]

I think ya look fine. What's the problem?

I never would have gone to that blasted party

[allfloatdownhere]

I still don't remember what happened. I still only see bits of it, in my nightmares.

I should have killed that man instead of letting him chase me off.
