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?

A Short Text Message
30 September 2025 22:37coffinturk in route666radio[ It arrives far too late to really save many people from cactaur posing issues. But still. ]
The stockpile of edible vegetables in the kitchen are sorted and labeled.
Some plants I don't recognize. They are marked unknown.
[ That is all. Anyone who decides to go check will find that at the time of that message, someone had gone to the trouble of separating and labeling all the vegetation stored in the kitchen. Recognized plants are named, unrecognized are sorted. But all are given 'Edible', 'Inedible', or 'Unknown' tags by human standards.
There is one container filled with a certain fleshy looking 'vegetable'. Cactaur. Edible. Eat at own risk. ]

Skinny dipping
30 September 2025 20:23abbacchiohno in bakerstreet  When the level on that thermometer climbs up, up, and away, there's only one thing to do β and that's hit the water, of course! Let the cool blue waves lap over your skin. Dive straight into the depths and escape the sun's rays. Didn't bring a swimsuit, did you? No room in your bag or, maybe, this was a split-second decision to take the plunge? Good news awaits. You don't need a swimsuit where you're going. Because you're sneaking off to a secret spot, aren't you? ...on the off chance you aren't, the risk could be half the fun.

Happy Birthday to You...
30 September 2025 23:27roflcopter in bakerstreetHappy Birthday!
πππ
…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?

Donβt let the fruit rot
30 September 2025 04:56baitings in bakerstreet 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! ( trigger warning ) |

29 September 2025 08:56hotlink in bakerstreetpros 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
29 September 2025 06:08buckynats in bakerstreetThe 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!

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 β there's only one bed, and the characters aren't comfortable sharing it.

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

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?

Locations? You want locations?
We got Locations!

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.
28 September 2025 12:36sockiatrist in bakerstreet
β 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 β 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
28 September 2025 10:13postingmemes in bakerstreetIt 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 β’ Post with your character (note the name and fandom in the subject). o p t i o n s 01 β’ 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. |
