Unexpected sweetness meme

<td>the unexpected sweetness meme



You might be the biggest curmudgeon in the known universe, just as prickly as a porcupine. Perhaps you're on the other end of the spectrum, cool like a cucumber and never letting anyone get to you. They're not worthy of your time. Still, despite what the case may be, you have one little weak spot. The person you love gets all the sweetness and kindness you have, which admittedly may not be too much, and in your rare moments together, many would be shocked at how you behave. In fact, your special person might not even know that you can be grumpy outside of your encounters!

Well, goes to show that everyone doen't know everything about you, do they?

• This meme is pretty shamelessly for fluff, 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.

the fish out of water shipping meme ( aka "the thor shipping meme" / cross-canon encouraged )

The main conceit of shipping memes, it seems, is that both characters exist in the same universe. But what about something that tosses that out the window for a minute, and lets you play with the implications of "crossover?" Here, you can play with someone from a different canon (or AU or radically different canonpoint) and enjoy shipping that's truly out of this world. It can be hard enough being ejected from your own home - imagine being plucked away from your home world! This could be because of your own doing (say, you were banished for being too cocky), you were too evil or too ambitious to stay, or even due to an accident. Those temporal shifts can be a little much. Whether by design or by chaos, however, you end up in the same place...or, rather, a different place. Theoretically, this world could be very much like your own, with only a few minor changes, like a purple sky instead of a blue one or lion-demons instead of tiger-vampires. On the other hand, it could be completely different, anywhere from more technologically advanced or less so or even filled to the brim with bizarre creatures. They still use cars? What are those infernal beeping devices? Why does no one have feathers or gills? Needless to say, this could be overwhelming if you are possibly powerless and definitely alone. But you're not alone. Someone, a native of this world, has ended up tangled into this whole affair with you, whether they want it or not. You can't turn that down. They're your only ally, your only anchor in this brand new world. Maybe, just maybe, they can show you a thing or two to help you back up on your feet. Or, best case scenario, back to your home! When you're out of the frying pan and into the fire, though, nothing is cut and dry. Everything about this world may not be so horrible - it may be fun, even - and this person you've ended up with, oh, they could be worse. In fact, you may be beginning to feel at home with them. Remember. This is not your real home. You want to go back, don't you? And what about the other party? Of course, you may be less than thrilled that you now are playing tour guide to what seems like a crazy person. Perhaps this was out of the kindness of your heart or you may be forced to play babysitter, but it all leads to you keeping an eye out on them. They have to be lying about all this! Sure, they may talk strange, unconsciously insult you, and act like the simplest things confuse them; that has to be an act! ...still, act or not, you're starting to see that there's more to them than their goofy ways and there's more to your feelings toward them than you thought. how to play This meme is inspired heavily by the first Thor movie and also a great deal by those romantic comedies where someone from the past goes into the future or vice versa. Comment with your character and preferences. Don't leave your comment blank! Mention something about your character's world in the comment for the canon blind (ie, "ancient Greece" or "dystopia with kids killing kids - the Japanese version"). It doesn't have to be long, it can even be a few words! If you have any other ideas, include them. Reply to others. Use the RNG - or not. Whichever you prefer. prompts arrival → You've just arrived...and someone has seen it. What's your impression? Good? Bad? Get the hell away from them? It may depend on why you're here in the first place. not so different → Huh, this could be your own home in the universe, except for a few subtle changes. But those changes stand out. different time → The place you've ended up is either much more advanced or much more primitive than you're used to. different world → They breathe oxygen? Where is their night vision? magical moment → See the gif. Essentially, it's that moment of interest before everything goes absolutely wrong. disbelief → So, they says they're an ancient Roman or a magic sky god. Did they hit their head? argument → No, no, no. You're not going anywhere until we get you some clothes and some help. forced to take them in → You have no other choice but to take this person in. You were either charged with the task or feel guilty. offer of shelter → You actually want to take them in out of the kindness of your heart. depowered → Were you a powerhouse before? Well, now you're an average joe. That'll teach you. misunderstanding → Here, we don't walk around in loin cloths, draw swords, or barely bathe or eat toothpaste. We also don't ride dogs, either. friendly fun → Being around here isn't always bad. You get to see new sights, taste new foods, and make new friends. Your milage may vary on the last one. introduced traditions → Time for the newcomer to show their host something from the old country, so to speak, or the reverse. romantic moment → Dancing or sitting under the stars or your own preference. Go wild and be creative! showing you care → They have helped you out a lot since you've arrived. Perhaps you can return the favor by lending a hand or solving a problem? the romantic shift → The typical turn of events where the two of you begin to see each other in a different light. not my type → Your usual type is more glamorous or more...possessing of gills, but the bond between you two endears them to you. jealousy → The newcomer misunderstands the dynamic that's already set in place. someone back home → You find yourself growing closer to your new friend, but you're already taken back home. confession → You both admit it's more than mere interdimensional alliances. smut → You've reached that point in the relationship, or you're about to leave, or you're just curious about the people in this world (remember that scene in Howard the Duck where - nevermind, actually). epic fight → Two worlds collide and big bads from the past are coming to threaten your temporary home and new love. reformed → You've learned your lesson and turned over a new leaf. As much as you can, anyway. You're more open, less cocky, whatever the case may be. sacrifice → Unfortunately, you won't get to go home. You selflessly put yourself in harm's way for your lover. going home → Time for a heartfelt goodbye. Will you see each other again or is this it? new home → You've learned and gained so much, you've decided to stay in this word. WILDCARD

The ＴＯＯＫ ＹＯＵ ＩＮ Shipping Meme

They were on your front door, in your yard, or on the street, confused and clearly in no position to fend for themselves; in a worst case scenario, they were bruised and battered, possibly close to death. Bleeding heart or not, you can't just be so cruel as to let them suffer. They need a place to stay, and you'll open your home to them...long enough to get back on their feet, anyway.

Speaking of feet, the shoe could be on the other one. You're worse for the wear - in a new place, possibly injured, certainly not in the best state of mind. You could not even remember how you got here or who you are to get here, for that matter. You may not want to remember. Whether willing or not so willing, you're in no position to turn down help, especially if said helper won't take no for an answer. No matter how dedicated you are to looking after yourself, there's only so much you can do in your position.

The two of you are staying together, at any rate. Only for a while, the plan is. But after said while, even though strength and confidence is returning to the injured, there's something a little different between you two. It could be the close quarters, the kindness shown, or a number of things, but quietly, softly, feelings have grown. Could more confusion and hurt spring from this? What about when it's time to go? Can the temporary resident leave as easily as they intended? You're so close now, perhaps a little while longer can't do any harm...

...until whatever it was that put them in such a perilous position in the first place comes back, and there could be "justice" for anyone who's dared to help.

( THE MINOR INJURIES MEME )



pinched from here!

You or your meme partner has been hurt, but don't worry! This time around it's not that bad. You can still limp your way out of this mess.

→ WHAT HAPPENED.
1. Sprain/strain. How did you screw up walking?
2. Broken bones. Simple fractures still hurt!
3. Cuts. Hopefully one of you has a sewing kit.
4. Burns. Location, location, location. Let's pray this one isn't on your ass.
5. Concussion. No, they're most likely not holding up fifteen fingers.
6. Other. I'm not a doctor.

→ HOW'D IT HAPPEN.
1. Stupidity. You did this to yourself.
2. Accident. Is an unintentional attack still an attack?
3. Attack. Don't lie, you deserved it.
4. Other. It's probably still your own fault.

→ WHERE'D IT HAPPEN.
1. Home. Did you remember to invest in a first aid kit?
2. School/Work. This should be excellent for getting you out of doing stuff!
3. Outdoors. Predators like the smell of blood. Clean up asap.
4. In the water. Hopefully there aren't any sharks!
5. Other. Like a hospital. That'd be handy.

ᴛʜᴇ ʙᴏᴅʏ ʜᴇᴀᴛ ᴍᴇᴍᴇ

Your character is now stuck in a very cold place of your choice, such as a freezing chamber, a cavern, or a small cabin in the midst of a blizzard, with another person for company and just one blanket between the two of them. There is no way to escape the cold except to share body heat to stay alive in this weather.

The Icons First Meme



The premise is pretty simple:

1) Go to post a comment.
2) Before you type anything, click the "Random icon" button.
3) This is now your icon. This is the expression your character has. This is what she is wearing. This is what he has in his mouth. This is what is happening.
3) Your tag must now be based on the icon.
4) Reply to others, always choosing a random icon first.
5) Let the hijinks occur!

Note: As the poster of this meme, I have no problems with nsfw icons, and in fact think they can add to instruction #5. Just give your threadmates a little warning for a happy and healthy meme-ing experience.
