ROMANTIC CONFESSIONS



↝ Comment with your character/prefs.
↝ Other characters are forced to admit their sappy thoughts and confessions about yours. No matter the situation, no matter the relationship, no matter how long they've known each other. Even if they've literally never met.
↝ Be cute. Be stupid.

A QUESTION FOR A QUESTION



YOU MAY KNOW EACH OTHER ALREADY - OR YOU MAY NOT. UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, YOU'RE NOW PASSING THE TIME ASKING EACH OTHER QUESTIONS. IT'S A GAME! A QUESTION FOR A QUESTION. YOU START OFF ASKING YOUR OPPONENT A QUESTION OF CHOICE AND IF THEY ANSWER IT, THEY'RE ALLOWED TO ASK YOU A QUESTION IN TURN. THE RULES ARE SIMPLE, ONLY AS LONG AS YOU ANSWER THE OTHER PERSON'S QUESTIONS ARE YOU ALLOWED TO ASK QUESTIONS YOURSELF, BUT THERE IS NO EXPECTATION OF TRUTHFULNESS HERE, LIE IF YOU MUST OR WANT, JUST KEEP THE MOMENTUM GOING.

How to play -
1. Comment with your character's name, fandom and preference.
2. If you want, leave a question in the comment field that your character is asking their opponent. Or don't. I'm not the cops.
3. Pick other characters to question and have fun!

Closer and closer each day

The Intimacy Meme

Intimacy is NOT necessarily about sexual contact. Intimacy is all about two people forming a connection and bond between them. That involves becoming best friends, trusting each other, knowing each other, understanding each other. Intimacy is grown and developed, it can't be rushed.

RULES
  • Comment with your character. Be sure to include preferences (ie, f/f for shipping, OTA for gen, etc)
  • Tag others!

Some of the coolest threads come from just putting characters in situations! This meme is a chance to do just that.

How to Play:
  1. No blank top-levels. Put a "don't panic, but..." statement in your top-level. Examples:
    • "Don't panic, but my father's coming and I need you to hide me."
    • "Don't panic, but everyone's throwing up."
    • "Don't panic, but I think something just exploded around the corner."
    • "Don't panic, but there's someone following you."
    • "Don't panic, but your shoes clash with that purse really badly."
  2. Respond to other people's statements. Maybe you can help them. Maybe you can make the situation worse. Maybe you can't help but panic.
  3. ????
  4. Profit

Wrapped around your finger

( surprisingly gentle )

Because is there anything better than a dangerous, potentially deadly stoic whose one weakness is their sweet, harmless object of affection? Especially if the latter has the former wrapped around their finger, knowingly or otherwise.

To avoid tl;dr - suddenly, a wild weakness approaches! Their attempt to turn you into a puddle of goo at the knees, whether purposeful or not, is very effective.

  • This meme is pretty shamelessly for fluff of the gen or shipping variety, opening up, dokis, and also more dokis.
  • Respond with your character, preferences, what role you'd like to play if it matters, and any other info.
  • Then, respond to others.

I’d choo choo choo choose you

the shippy & smutty questions meme: consoldiated


It's a question meme about love and relationships (and sex). Self-explanatory, right?

Rules:

Comment with your character. If your character is underage, not sexually active, or you are simply uninterested in smut or uncomfortable with those questions, feel free to opt out! Respect preferences.
Tag other characters with questions from the list you want them to answer.
 
Answer your own questions!
That's it.

Hades & Persephone.
Persephone was gathering flowers with the Oceanids along with Artemis and Athena—the Homeric Hymn says—in a field when Hades came to abduct her, bursting through a cleft in the earth. Demeter, when she found her daughter had disappeared, searched for her all over the earth with torches. In most versions she forbids the earth to produce, or she neglects the earth and in the depth of her despair she causes nothing to grow. Helios, the sun, who sees everything, eventually told Demeter what had happened and at length she discovered the place of her abode. Finally, Zeus, pressed by the cries of the hungry people and by the other deities who also heard their anguish, forced Hades to return Persephone. Hades indeed complied with the request, but first he tricked her, giving her some pomegranate seeds to eat. Persephone was released by Hermes, who had been sent to retrieve her, but because she had tasted food in the underworld, she was obliged to spend a third of each year (the winter months) there, and the remaining part of the year with the gods above.

but even that hardest of hearts unhardened suddenly when he saw her there: persephone in her mother’s garden, sun on her shoulders, wind in her hair, the smell of flowers she held in her hand and the pollen that fell from her fingertips. and suddenly, hades was only a man with a taste of nectar upon his lips


To live your life in darkness is no easy task. Evil may be just a point of view - one you may not ascribe to yourself - but a black heart or a ruthless mind is hardly quieted. While you don't regret what you've done, at least not outwardly, you do wonder if there isn't something more. Grey morality has discolored your world.

That is, until you see them.

They are beautiful, pure, good: everything that you are not. You should be annoyed or at least ambivalent to their presence; after all, they serve you no purpose, promise you no gain. But oddly enough, you are drawn to them, and not even in hopes to destroy or corrupt. No, you want to have them, to keep them with you. What to do with this newfound feeling?

Act on it, of course. You've never let anything stop you before. What you don't realize (or perhaps do, you just don't exactly care) is that the object of your...affection may not be too keen on being taken what they see as prisoner. Yet you only have their best interests at heart! Still, you do care for them, in your own fashion, more than almost anyone else, so surely a deal can be struck...

You just couldn't bear to lose them.

  • This meme, obviously, is inspired by the myth of Hades and Persephone. Feel free to be as literal or as loose with your interpretations as you'd like.
  • Comment with your character, canon, preferences, and what role you'd like your character to play.
  • Reply to others.
  • Play anything and any scenario that fits within the theme.
