THE ON-DUTY MEME



We're all used to playing our characters in special circumstances--sharing a bath, AUed into a robot, in the rain, lost in the ball pit (well that's one way to get your extra hour)...but how often do we get to actually play our characters doing their day jobs?

This meme is for just that.


INSTRUCTIONS
1. Write a starter about your character going about their day/night at work, wherever that may be.

If your character is a doctor, write them checking in on a patient, or having a meal in the hospital cafeteria. If they're a lawyer, write them at court. If they're a professional ghost-hunter? Yeah, that'd be a pretty neat starter too!

Be sure to include some sort of hook that allows other characters to join in the action, even if your character works alone. Maybe they brought their pile of research out to a cafe? Maybe they need help with something?

2. Respond to other characters' starters.

3. Thread. Have a good day at work, or perhaps an awful day at work.

So caught up in you little girl

+1 hardcore, x100 guilt
Part of the appeal of the (under)age difference kink, as in legal-aged characters being involved with those that are underage, is how absolutely taboo and fucked up it is in most cultures. Romance is nice, but let's be honest; it's messed up, even if there is a romantic element. And that's what makes it fun. This meme is for nitty, gritty, not always pretty side of underage. You can play the psychological angles of both sides, whether their actions makes the older party tormented for their decision, and all the filthy, dirty, guilty, and sexy facets this kink can offer.

But my character is a good dude and would never _____! Well, you can always say it's a moment of weakness, they didn't think, aliens made them do it, emotions made them do it - or say fuck it, it's a meme. Make them feel guilty about it later.

But my character is underage and I want them to be the older party. Age them up or play against someone younger.

Through Their Eyes
a description meme


how it goes

Give: Preferences, information, etc.
Get: Your character, described, as seen by others and their points of view. Possibly shippy (but not necessarily). Hopefully complimentary (but not necessarily). Because sometimes, you need an extra set of eyes to see what's obvious.

πŸ‚ Cabin in the Woods πŸŽƒ


A night in the woods, a staple of any idyllic autumn! You don't have service out here, so there's no need to worry about pesky things like phone calls or text messages. Don't worry about noise pollution, either; there's not single soul around. You're so far out of the way, in fact, that no one can hear you scream! Isn't that fun?

how to play;
  • Comment with your character and whether you prefer things be sweet or scary.
  • Reply to others.
  • Enjoy your time at the cabin in the woods!

It's the middle of the night and you're trying to catch some z's β€” or brooding alone in the alleys, as one does β€” when your phone dings and suddenly a stranger or a friend is texting you.

Rules:

● Post with your character's name and canon on the subject line, indicate preferences as needed
● Tag others
● Have fun!

sexual favorites


Though we know that we shouldn't play favorites, we always do.

RULES
βœ” in place of a traditional subject line, your character saddles up with their favorite sex act/position/service (or one they'd love to experience).
βœ” someone wants a demo, mayhaps?

why i'm single


these assumed relationship movies, well, assume a lot. like you're even capable of being in a relationship, for starters.

how to play:
➬ no rocket science here. your character tells us why they're single. they can...fudge details, of course! of course.
➬ everybody shares their hot take on whether your character's singlehood is deserved or not. you never know, they could even volunteer to remedy the situation!

Mutual healing

Mar. 14th, 2026 06:02 pm
[personal profile] sockfromarose posting in [community profile] bakerstreet


Mutual Healing Meme
Healing doesn't come quickly, whether the need comes from physical or mental wounds. But you're trying regain your strength - and yourself.

People, as a general rule, are kind, or at least not outright inflammatory to you, it seems. Still, you just can't connect with them. No matter how nice, how caring, they don't understand. They've never experienced anything like what you've gone through, or they're not like you in a way that lets them see what you still go through; they have no frame of reference. Sure, they have sympathy, but it's not the same. So there's no real connection, despite any friendliness. It's so easy, then, to feel detached...

...until you meet them, in this place of both death and healing.

They may not have been through the exact same struggles, they may not be exactly the same as you, but they know what darkness is light. How they handle this fact may be better or worse than how you do, yet you can see yourself in their actions. And for once? There's connection; more than that, too. Slowly, you can feel yourself opening up towards them, and then, falling for them.

Is this something your used to? Will you fight your feelings, or will you jump at the opportunity to be with someone who can begin to get you? You may have little choice in the matter, as your instincts may just reach out to be with whatever compatible contact you can get. That's better, in the long run, though. Who else could have wounds like yours?

  • Essentially, it's what it says: a "romance," in the loose definition, or "shipping" meme for characters who have been through the wringer or have hangups.
  • Reply with your character, preferences, and any info you want to include. Remember, the more information, the more taggable you are.
  • Respond to others.
  • Thread.

Don't get caught

[personal profile] thelegendof posting in [community profile] bakerstreet
On The Run Meme

Maybe something went wrong, or maybe it's just another normal day in your life, but you've found yourself on the run. Did you commit a crime, or cross the wrong person, or simply end up in the wrong place at the wrong time? Whatever the reason behind your situation is, your goal is the same: don't get caught.
 
How To Play
• Comment with your character, and if you're feeling ambitious put in a bit of a starter. Who are you running from and why?
• Respond to others, either as their partner on the run or part of the force chasing them.
• Have epic adventures, fall in love, utterly fail and get caught. See how it goes!
• RNG for some extra unpredictable fun.


Scenarios

1. Running from the cops. You broke the law, whether it was shoplifting or murder, and now you've got a warrant out for your arrest.
2. Attracted the wrong attention. You made someone angry, or obsessed, or otherwise drawn their ire and now they're after you.
3. Somewhere or somewhen. You've ended up in a place and/or time in which you're not welcome.
4. Wildcard!

Relationships
1. Friends (or more.) You've known each other for awhile and are on good terms, so hopefully you can rely on each other in this situation.
2. Circumstantial allies. Strangers, enemies, or otherwise you've ended up in this mess together, and it might benefit you both to cooperate.
3. Opposite sides. One of you is the runner, and the other is pursuing. Which will prevail?
4. Wildcard!

Complications

1. Late to the party. How many people did you piss off? In addition to whoever was already after you, someone else now is as well. Maybe they'll take each other out?
2. Confrontation. They've found you, and it's come down to a fight.
3. Disguise. You can't evade them, but you can hope they won't recognize you. Better be a good actor!
4. Wildcard!

    Happy Saturday!

    I'm going to be doing a little maintenance today. It will likely cause a tiny interruption of service (specifically for www.dreamwidth.org) on the order of 2-3 minutes while some settings propagate. If you're on a journal page, that should still work throughout!

    If it doesn't work, the rollback plan is pretty quick, I'm just toggling a setting on how traffic gets to the site. I'll update this post if something goes wrong, but don't anticipate any interruption to be longer than 10 minutes even in a rollback situation.

    In Love with the Gangster's Girl
    From the moment you first set eyes on them, you've been drawn - but this is no meet-cute. They are completely unavailable to you: they're sworn to a duty, already spoken for (by someone powerful or evil, no doubt), precious cargo, a caged bird kept away from prying eyes, a possession of a wicked creature. Whatever the case, they are off-limits. The problem is...they are struck by you, too.

    Will you fight your feelings, or will you free them so they can be with you? Either way, there's a high probability of it all going up in flames.

    HOW TO PLAY
    • Comment with your character, preferences, role, and any other information to make you more taggable.
    • Reply to others.
    • RNG if desired.
    • This meme is slightly inspired by this trope, but the setting can be anywhere and the genre anything.
