You know what they say about assuming, don't you?

Yup. Exactly. Always. No exceptions, not in this meme.

how to play
- If you top level, they will come. But don’t leave your top level blank! No, no, you need a stater, my friend, a line of dialogue that begins with the words “I thought.” Come up with your own or choose from the list below.
- Others tag.
- Thread from there.

there's only one rule:
NO BLANK TOP LEVELS
Your character is, willingly or not, confessing who or what they would give their life for. This can be as long or short a list as is in character for your character. Other characters react. Have fun.

I BELIEVE IN [ m e m e ]


- your character has been asked what their strongest belief is. what do they hold true in their heart of hears? their creed, their mantra?
- post it for all to see in your subject header.
- brace for the impact of all the naysayers.

THE YAHOO ANSWERS MEME




No question is a stupid one. There may, however, be stupid answers.

● Blank top levels are encouraged in these parts. The re-re-remix here is that instead of the usual subject line, you'll put a question that your character wants to know the answer to (but has been too afraid to ask).
● Other characters will provide the wisdom only crowd-sourced internet answers can provide! Sincerely or trolling, they'll put their two cents in.
● Thread-jacking will happen in this meme. Somebody might jump into to correct an inaccuracy. Maybe a keyboard warrior wants to start a flamewar. Or, you know. You might just be an idiot and everyone everywhere needs to be informed of that.

character(s) i'm thirsty for


don't be ashamed. we've all got them, characters we just...man. they're great. love them. chef's kiss. couldn't be more perfect. of course, we don't always have a reasonable excuse to tag them, and that doesn't quench our thirst.

so why wait for a reason? just admit to your character crush! whether they're a castmate, crosscanon who'd be a perfect fit, or a total rando that wouldn't meet your blorbo in a thousand years, there's no more need to vaguepost on rpanons about characters you wish would notice you.

tell us here. this? this is a judgement free zone. be as thirsty as you want on main. and maybe, just maybe, your prince/ss will come.

The Support Group Meme



Per Wikipedia:
In a support group, members provide each other with various types of help, usually nonprofessional and nonmaterial, for a particular shared, usually burdensome, characteristic. The help may take the form of providing and evaluating relevant information, relating personal experiences, listening to and accepting others' experiences, providing sympathetic understanding and establishing social networks. A support group may also work to inform the public or engage in advocacy.
And now you know. And knowing's half the battle.
  • Post with a character.

  • Unlike most memes, you'd probably be better off by providing a general theme for people to respond to. You know, have your subject or post read "People who got turned into animals in their respective games" or "Time travelers and keeping the space/time continuum intact."

  • Respond to other people and support them through their trials and tribulations.

  • NOTE: While you're welcome to post whatever the hell you want, if you delve into triggery whatnot (i.e. abuse, suicide, things which tend to actually evoke real life support groups and therapy) please label your posts with a nice and blatant warning so someone who was looking for Time Travelers Anonymous doesn't accidentally stumble into your suicide thread instead.

PROTECTOR/PROTECTED

There’s no real push to your actions; you do them as if they were second nature. Perhaps, initially, you were assigned this role, as protector and guardian of this person. Maybe you took it on because there was no one else. A natural guardian or not, good or evil, you caught a shining to them and felt…something. Something hard to explain, but you want to keep them safe and happy - or at the very least, content. No one is as dedicated to them as you. You want them to reach their goals; to help them achieve them, you'll do what you must, even if it means being their gofer or their right hand.

But most of all, you don't want them to end up like you. They're worth more than that.

Yet somehow, along the line, you became more to them, more than just their protector. You protect them anew and you've found a different way to make them happy. It's selfish, too, because you love them in your way and you want them more than anything. You may feel guilty, of course. They don't, though, and that's what matters.

  • Comment with your character, preferences, and what you'd prefer to play: protector or protected.
  • Remember, you don't have to be so rigid. A traditionally weak character can "protect" a traditionally strong one in emotional ways.
  • Reply to others.

TWO TRUTHS AND A LIE



It's an old game, a good way to get to know people, or test how well you know someone you know already. Maybe you have to play, maybe it's just for fun. It doesn't matter; it's time to play.

  • Post your character to the meme with three facts about themselves, two of which are true, one of which is a lie.
  • Characters respond with their guesses.
  • Respond in kind to those who tag you, discuss their guesses.
  • Tag around and challenge others!

The Coffeehouse Meme


it's a cold day...wherever you are. brrrrr. you are outside, walking around (maybe holiday shopping, or portal jumping, or maybe you clicked a weird pen or phone booth button and landed here. whatever the case, you are now outside a quaint little cafe in New York, right by Central Park, on snowy, December morning. did I mention that it's cold? you walk into the cafe and immediately feel the warmth of the room. there's a fireplace on each side of the little shop, which helps un-nip the frost on your nose. the baristas at the counter great you kindly, and tell you to have a seat and they will send over one of their girls to take your order.

stay a while?


instructions:
1. make a comment (blank or otherwise) with your character's name and canon in the subject. they have entered the cafe. they can leave or stay or even sit down and read a book if they have one on hand. whatever your preference.
2. people respond with their characters meeting others inside the cafe. you can do whatever you want, except fight. oh, arguing is allowed, but sword fights? nope.
3. have fun!!

LOOK OF LOVE

Just another fun lil' icon prompt meme.

ONE. Comment with your character and info.

TWO. Use the icon that best represents the expression your character has when they see the person they love most in the universe. You know the look. Smitten. Lovesick. Head-over-heels, they hung the moon and stars.

THREE. Characters reply as if they're the subject of that gaze.

The "Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is" Meme

You've been suddenly cursed with an affliction! The powers that be in the world have decided to make it so that everyone in the world has a limited amount of words. You have a specific amount you can speak per day, which is awarded by how useful you're judged to be.

💬 Once you're out, you're out, you can't talk until midnight. Of course, there are ways to gain more...

💬 You can convince some hapless sap to give you some of their own or trade services. You can even sell... whatever someone is willing to buy.

💬 Words also happens to be the currency used. Which means that depending on how they were judged, the poor might now be the rich and vica versa. But be careful - you do have a limit, after all!

💬 This can be done as texting or prose - becoming mute doesn't mean you can't text. Any written word stays intact.

Could you kill to save a life

"Could You Take A Life?"


Simple question. Not a very simple thing to answer. Seeing as how many canons — from action to horror — deal with death in one way or another, it's a pretty reasonable thing to ask around these parts.

So, when posed with the question, could you take a life?, how does your character respond? Are they a cold, hard, remorseless killer, someone who's never even thought about murder until now, or something more complex?


  • No blank top-levels.

  • Instead, characters are to respond to the proposed question: could you take a life / could you kill someone?

  • We're asking for honesty here, but it's not as if we have fact-checkers waiting around. Lie if you want. We're not your parents.

an ic meme

 



Before Bumble, and Tinder, and Facebook Marketplace, we had personals, a place where loneliness went to die.

The meme is simple — treat your top-level the way your character would treat a personal ad in the newspaper, or on Craigslist. They should write what they're searching for in the header, and fill the body with more details as needed. Advertise yourself! Be direct! Be honest!

Those who reply are likely here to flame you, but that's to be expected. No one said love was easy.
