THE "SHOULD NEVER BE TOGETHER" MEME


the "should never be together" meme.
When two people come together in a relationship, it's a beautiful thing. What can be wrong with love, right? Right? Except when the union is completely and totally wrong, for whatever reason. Then things can get a little messy.

How To Play
1. Comment with your character, listing their name, canon, etc, along with any preferences.
2. Comment around to others, using the RNG to determine the scenario. It doesn't have to be a lovey-dovey relationship, obviously. There can be hate, sorrow, lust, whatever.
3. Thread! Have fun! Do things!

Scenarios
1. Warring Factions: You belong to rival organizations, armies, clubs, etc. Whatever it is, you're not on the same team.

2. Soldiers on the Battlefield: Or maybe you are on the same side, but this is the wrong time and the wrong place. Plus, attachments cause distractions.

3. Bodyguard and the Guarded: Just like the movie with Kevin Costner! One of you has been hired to protect the other for some reason, and feelings are starting to grow. Are you a professional and cut things off, or do you give in?

4. Prince/ss and Knight: Similar to the above, but with a whole 'nother level of wrong...one of you is royal. Courtly love is okay; still, don't forget your place.

5. Enemies: This vendetta is personal, and you totally hate this person! Don't you? Perhaps you're maybe just rivals, or something as serious as superhero and villain.

6. Family: The ultimate taboo. This person is related to you, so there's no way you should indulge this desire, even if it's the most pure love there ever was.

7. Age Difference: The years between you should keep you both at bay, but it's easier said than done.

10. Teacher/Student: Teachers and students have a unique bond, and to corrupt it is a dangerous thing. Will you dare to act on emotions that could put you both in a destructive place?

11. Already Spoken For: One or both of you are already involved with someone else, but the heart wants what the heart wants. Just know that you can't have your cake and eat it, too.

12. Not Compatible: Your personalities or jobs make it so it's hard for you to be together.

13. Not Compatible...in Another Way: You're both different species, which means you're either afraid to take your relationship to a physical level or you can't because of differences in biologies.

14. Not Ready for Love: You took a vow (or celbacy, of chastity, of dedication), you're married to your work, or you just don't want to be involved with anyone. Too bad!

15. Rich and Poor: One of you has the money while the other is from more modest means. Can the 1% and the 99% ever be bedfellows, literally?

16. Hurt Before: Your heart has been broken, and maybe there's been no time to heal. But here you are.

[It's a role he's very familiar with as he has always been the one watching over her. Always.]

You aren't supposed to be going out alone, you know.

[Protecting her was his job. Nothing more.]

[ . . . Caught. She freezes in her footsteps before slumping. Of course he caught her. With a pout she turns around to face him, brows knit.]

How did you know?

[She'd taken every precaution.]

[Nothing gets past him because he's watching her like a hawk. To protect her at all costs. Even his life.]

You can't hide things from me.

Tell me what you want. I'll try to grant your desire.

[Urk. Yes, she's been told he's the best, multiple times. But his words ignite a ridiculous part of her that wants to prove him wrong.

Marching forward she passes him.]


I want to explore the city on my own. Just this once you can remain here. I wont be long.

[personal profile] subdueme 2013-07-04 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
That's...not going to happen.

[At all. But nice try.]

I won't allow you into danger like that.
sunflowering: (Not that big a deal...)

[personal profile] sunflowering 2013-07-04 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
[Bristling, she levels a glare at him. Isn't he supposed to listen to what she says?

. . . Although it's true his orders come from above her.]


How is it dangerous? It's just a walk into town.

[Showing off her hood.]

Look, I got this so no one will know the wiser!

Yeah, that's not allowed.

[Sighing, he isn't exactly against it but it's his responsibility to ensure her safety. If she doesn't get it, that's her problem. Not his.]

If something happens to you, it's me that will be punished. You know that right?

[She merely frowns. It's not like she wants him to get in trouble or anything either.

It's just frustrating.]


I just... want to spend a day normally.

[Her eyes widen]

Ah! Say, Zero-kun... I have an idea!

[At the very least this will be fine, wont it?]

I can't go alone. And I don't really want everyone to stare and treat me differently because of my position. What if for today, you pose as my date? You've been in the city, right?

[It's a perfect idea!]

You can show me around! And no one will treat me differently.

[Don't tease him. He might actually get a nosebleed from the thought.]

Do whatever you want, it doesn't matter to me as long as you aren't alone.
