May EMP Meme

[enablemeplz]

ENABLEMEPLZ meme goes up on the last Saturday of every month FOR GAME ADS: ➤ Put an ad up with the characters / crew / pairings / fetish you want for your game under the correct game header. This meme is primarily going to be focused on DWRP games but IJ and LJ games are allowed. ➤ PLEASE NOTE A RULE CHANGE HERE. ABSOLUTELY NO obnoxious coding (no font size > size 4 or 3 "big" tags, no oversized banners (they must be 250px in height or less), no blinking text, no obnoxious table html that doesn't collapse easily, no sparklies, no large pictures). Use all the colors you like, but please remember 3 "big" tags is the limit and that's only for headers or title text rather than for all the text in an ad. FOR GAME QUESTIONS: ➤ RPers interested in a game can create a header for the game and ask questions about that game that aren't easy to find on faqs, such as the actual pace vs. what's listed/what kind of plots are run/if the game leans more towards plotty or slice of life/if a game leans more towards network or logs, etc. Both anon questions and anon answers are welcome in this section just like in the rest of the meme. ➤ This thread is not for speaking about wank or drama in a game. There are anoncomms that exist for that. This thread is specifically for general questions about a game that rpers want to get perspective on from players already in the game. Answers can be slightly negative (such as saying app response is slow or that the plots are repetitive or similar things) but this should at least be worded politely. Unnecessary vitriol, any mention of personal drama or wank, or mod teams/individual mods/players being singled out, will be screened and/or deleted. FOR CHARACTER ADS: ➤ Put up an ad about the characters you are offering. For PSL/1-on-1 ads, there is a separate subthread but for character ads for games, post directly to the meme post. Others will comment to you with the games/casts they want you to join. ➤ There is a "Find a Castmate" section, where you can talk about a cast you play in at a game, and try to lure people to join it. Not all games post to the meme or have a "wanted" section, so players that want to tempt people to their cast on their own can use this section for it. Please format this the same as the PSL/1-on-1 section, where you post the canons in your subject. For the actual text of the ad you must use the "Find a Castmate" form provided at the bottom of this post so that these ads don't get huge. When listing who's currently in a cast, please do this in sentence form (with commas) rather than in list form. ➤ ABSOLUTELY NO obnoxious coding, with the same rules as the Game Ads Section above. ➤ If you're recommending a game to someone, try to match your suggestion to their needs. It's okay if part of your game rec is copy-pasted (such as what the game's about), but at least some part of the rec must be personalized to their ad. Try not to recommend the same game to every single ad, either. Ad spam that isn't individualized in some way will also be screened. IN GENERAL: ➤ Don't be a dick. This isn't one of the anoncomms, so any snide comments or unnecessary commentary on the RP plans of others will be screened. MOD CONTACT: If there's trouble, tell me HERE, please!

Maybe as part of it, being a doctor.

[podchinyatsya]

Mindscape mystical mischief?

[mysticaldoctor]

XD mischief perhaps or just psychological healing in a somewhat magical way (either to undo triggers or...Hydra damage in general).

Mischief immediately sent me to shipping territory which is fine too <3

[podchinyatsya]

I love Doc so believe me I am always down to play with this idea!

Bucky's still pretty broken but WE SHOULD SEE WHAT HAPPENS

[mysticaldoctor]

I'd definitely want some background before we tread into shipping, is there a place or a meme that would be good to start this in?

[podchinyatsya]

I'm always erring on the side of Bucky just being too introverted to ship but YES YES

I have an open post on his journal, or I can trawl through Bakerstreet to find a good meme?

[mysticaldoctor]

I can't really find anything suitable for my purposes in Bakerstreet so I'm going to utilize the open post. Let me know if you want something else. I left it open as being post-Civil War or post-Endgame.

[podchinyatsya]

I automatically went post-CW but can totally adjust to post-Endgame if it gives us more to play with! Let me know :D

[mysticaldoctor]

I'm tempted to say that post-Endgame gives the option of Bucky moving on without Cap, but I'm not sure I'm ready for that part of things yet anyway. Oh man do I think there is a big other timeline that they aren't gonna address but I probably shouldn't talk about it because it's an essay.

[podchinyatsya]

It's a lot of emotional stuff to unpack, considering they didn't even show Bucky and Steve talking about Steve going to live in the past... :(

So yeah. Post-CW might be better.

um, GIVE ME YOUR ESSAY? WHERE IS THE POWERPOINT?

[mysticaldoctor]

I haven't made a Powerpoint, but other big timeline basically is where Cap returns the stones, that is still a timeline and then the one that Loki nopes out of still is one.
While I think Cap may have at least attempted to erase his past self's memory of Bucky being alive it might have still been a nagging thought in the back of his mind anyway.

I really don't believe when Cap went back in time to live his life that he would have just let things be. I think that a) he probably tipped off SHIELD somehow anyway and b) he probably had Bucky rescued just because - that's how I see Cap. We know they will never touch on it and I kinda don't want them to because I enjoy living in that fantasy that Cap had a pretty happy bi life.

"I don't think I will," implies SO MUCH, and that's ... most of my essay, haha.

[podchinyatsya]

I share like, all these thoughts. Steve Rogers doesn't have any chill whatsoever, and I don't see him living on the sidelines. Even if he thinks he needs to preserve the timeline, there's no way he could live with all that death on his hands when he knows he could prevent it.

We know he danced with peggy, but they never actually showed us who he grew old with. It is open-ended in that sense, so I also enjoy my headcanons :)

[mysticaldoctor]

I think he would have really tried to keep it on the downlow. No matter what ending he got, I am glad he got it, but I don't think he would have just stood by and let certain things happen that he felt he could prevent. I think some things he likely felt were fixed points in time and it was wrong to change it, but still!

They definitely left things open-ended and I hope they leave it that way.
