Happy Birthday to You...

Happy Birthday!

🎂🎉🎁

…what? It’s not your birthday? That’s silly—of course it is, and you’re getting a party whether you like it or not.

Toplevels are the lucky birthday star. Feel free to include details about the theme of the party. Maybe it’s your character’s sweet sixteen, or maybe they’re celebrating their first year of life. Maybe they’re an adult getting the kickass dinosaur party they always wanted when they were six. Or maybe they’re just some sadsack alone in a room with a single cupcake and a flickering candle.

The point is, some cosmic entity has forced them to don a birthday hat and celebrate, and what’s a party without guests?

TABOO meme

Most societies have certain mores that are unspoken rules; humanity itself even has such conventions, grilled subconsciously into our minds for our own safety. Don't go out alone at night. Avoid getting wet when it's cold. Don't pick fights with those stronger than you...okay, some of us missed the boat on the last one, but the point still stands. Society's rules tend to be more variable, though they apply to most aspects of life - including sex. In fact, bending the rules on what's considered acceptable in romance and sexual encounters can lead to anything from ostracization to death, depending on the time and culture.

So, play it close to the chest if you're going to do a big, big, big t a b o o. Is it worth the risk?

How to Play

- Comment with your character and preferences. Be sure to include what you want and what you DON'T WANT. Blank comments are fine; info is even better!
- Reply to others.
- Be fun and respect others, as this will deal with some heavy topics and potentially triggering material s.

pros and cons of dating your character

a humor/shipping meme

The premise is simple.

[1] Your character has a sign listing out all the pros and cons of dating them. Maybe they wrote it themselves, maybe they didn't.
[2] This list is displayed for everyone else to see.
[3] That's it.

Do not post any blank top levels. Comment with your character's list, then have fun reacting to other people's pros and cons.

Intimacy

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)

I know where this is going

there's only one bed!

Two characters have to share a room for the night. Every room is occupied, but fortunately there is one last room available.

There's just one problem — there's only one bed, and the characters aren't comfortable sharing it.

Kissr

kissr

In a world of micro-niche app startups, this one's not too complicated: Tinder...but for kissing. Swipe right (producing the 💋 symbol) on who you want to kiss, left (leaving 🤢) on who you don't. RULES ○ See above! Your character "downloads the app" by leaving a top-level. ○ Others judge with a 💋 or 🤢.

Rain

the rain meme

Ah, rain—the precipitation that the whole world has a love/hate affair with. It waters the garden for free and ruins baseball games. It cools you off in the summer and it causes more ice and sleet to appear in the winter. Sometimes it is lovely and falls at a decent pace for a few hours, other times, it blasts the whole eastern seaboard away.

Poems and songs have been written about it, people have danced in it, others have cursed its entire existence, and still more refuse to go out and drive in it.

Now it’s time to roll some dice and see what the weather will have in store for you today.

directions

1. Comment with your character, series, preferences, etc in the subject.
2. Roll a number between 1-5 with the RNG for an intensity.
3. Roll 1-15 with the RNG for a situation.
4. Reply to other comments and play the scenario out!
5. Don’t catch a cold!

FILTHY FIRST IMPRESSIONS

Look at that guy over there. Real fast, tell me the first thing that comes to mind. Go!

Oh my God, wait, no, don't tell me. DON'T TELL ME.

ONE. Top level with your character and limits, prefs, comfort levels, etc.

TWO. Because other characters are going to comment (possibly forced) their nastiest, horniest, thirsty-ass, down-bad, FERAL first thoughts about them. Straight, no chaser. And definitely no filter, no sir. We're wild.

THREE. Can you feel the absolute chaos in the studio today?

The Warriors: Stormtroopers, Pilots, Republic soldiers, gladiators and bare-knuckle boxers.
The Politicians: Diplomats, Senators, kings, queens, crown princesses and their ilk go here.
The Mystics: Jedi Knights, Sith Lords, Knights of Ren, even your garden-variety religious leaders fall into this category.

Locations? You want locations?
We got Locations!
There's the Core Worlds
The Colonies
The Inner Rim
The Expansion Zone
The Mid-Rim
The Outer Rim Territories
And even a couple of other places also. Including a whole bunch of planets that no one knows where they fall, they just exist!

Obviously there can and will be some crossover in these categories, you may have a Force-sensitive diplomat, a Republic soldier who deserted his post to pursue a life of crime, a smuggler gone senator and so on, I'm not the boss of you, have fun with it.

If you can't think of a scenario, use this or even this

the interview meme.

— the interview meme.

The camera's on, the mics are rolling, and all eyes are on you. Your characters are now interviewing each other for an audience — seen or unseen, in all kinds of contexts. Is this for a show that might be viewed by thousands of people, or a private affair only meant for one or two to see? Is your character a charismatic and gregarious celebrity, or some other subject of interest? Or are they the interviewer, in any number of flavors: warm and empathetic, flippant and lackadaisical, cold and professional... with incisive questions that will push and pull and prod in all sorts of directions?

Toplevel with your characters and preferences (interviewer, interviewee, or either role), then get the ball rolling with any of the optional prompts below.

This meme has been written for gen interactions, but it can be as shippy as you want. Most interviews will be purely professional... but there's no tearing your eyes away from two people who have palpable chemistry while talking to each other, whether they're performing for an audience or not.

( optional prompts beneath the cut! )

Insomnia

the i n s o m n i a meme

It happens to everyone - sometimes, you have nights where you just can't fall asleep, no matter what you do. It could be for a number of reasons, or no reason at all. And this is what's happened now: you've been laying in bed for what feels like hours, just tossing and turning, and nothing seems to help. So what's left to do? Get out of bed and go wake someone else up, of course. If you're not getting any sleep, then why should they?

i n s t r u c t i o n s

• Post with your character (note the name and fandom in the subject).
• Other people reply to you by generating a number from 1 to 10.
• Have fun!

o p t i o n s

01 • FEAR. Maybe you're hearing strange, indeterminable noises; maybe there's a severe storm happening outside; maybe you watched a scary movie before bed? Whatever the reason, you're terrified and it's keeping you awake. You just want to wake someone else up so they can protect you from the monster in your closet.
02 • HUNGER. Your stomach is growling and it just won't stop. Or perhaps your throat is so dry you could cough up a tumbleweed? Well, you've gone to the kitchen to remedy this and hey, that was a pan that just dropped on the floor. It was loud enough to wake the dead! Oops.
03 • PAIN. Your body is completely worn out, be it from exercise, battle, sickness, or what have you. Either way you're in enough pain to keep you from sleeping, so maybe someone else has a home remedy or something, or can at least help you take your mind off of it.
04 • SOLITUDE. For some reason, your bed just feels so empty at the moment. You're feeling terribly lonely and really just want someone to keep you company for a while. Maybe it'd be easier to fall asleep if you're with them...
05 • DISCOMFORT. Your room is an oven. Either that or a freezer. Or maybe this bed is just really uncomfortable? Who knows why you can't get to sleep, it feels like it could be anything. Why even bother trying? Maybe someone else can preoccupy you until you feel tired enough to ignore your discomfort.
06 • PENSIVE. Something's on your mind, and no matter how hard you try to focus elsewhere, it's just not going to work. Your body may be tired, but your mind is incredibly busy and it's virtually impossible to get to sleep. Surely, talking it out with someone else will help?
07 • SADNESS. Something terrible has happened that day, perhaps; or you could just be severely depressed. Either way you're trying your hardest not to cry yourself to sleep, and it's not working at all. Better find a way to get it out of your system somehow; you need a shoulder to cry on.
08 • ANGER. You are just... fuming. Who knows why - that annoying dog is barking again, or maybe the people next door are getting busy and keeping you awake. Whatever the reason for your ire is, you'd better put an end to it so you can get some damn rest already! Go wake up a friend so you can complain to them.
09 • RESTLESS. You're far too energetic to sleep right now. Maybe you're just trying to do so out of necessity - you have to be up early tomorrow! But you just don't think you'll be able to fall asleep for a while now, so why waste the time trying to sleep when you could be doing something else? Namely bothering someone else - you're totally jealous because they're getting more sleep than you.
10 • WILDCARD. Choose one of the options above, or make up your own scenario.

Welcome to...

1. Comment with your characters. Feel free to specify if they're a vendor/merchant, performer, or someone just here to enjoy the market.
