April 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 either frozen or screened (based on what seems right based on the content). FOR CHARACTER ADS: ➤ Put up an ad about the characters you are offering. For PSL 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 section, where you post your character's 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. ➤ There is a "Find Crosscanon" section, where you can talk about a character you play and and desired crosscanon for that character. Please make sure this is not too generalized a search, because just wanting general crosscanon can be accomplished with the other sections of the meme. This is for specific characters or character types you're looking for. In the subject, please list the "Looking for [canon you're looking for]" rather than your character's canon. If looking for a character type, list the character type in as few words as possible. Do not make the subject huge or I'll screen your comment. For the actual text of the ad you must use the "Find Crosscanon" form provided at the bottom of this post so that these ads don't get huge. This section is only for game crosscanon as in the psl section people can list their preferences. ➤ Examples of crosscanon you can search for: You play The Flash from DC Comics and your dream CR is fellow speedster Quicksilver from Marvel. Or you might play a witch and want cr with other witches in general. Or maybe you play a good character messed up by evil parents and want to play against a villain character you know has evil parents, because you know it'd lead to some interesting negative CR. ➤ 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 frozen or screened. Keep in mind this needs to be more specific than "this game has easy AC like you're asking for but meets none of your other requirements." Make sure you're advertising games that might click with that specific character, where a few elements fit what they're looking for. You should be thinking about the story reasons of how the character might click with the game. 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 frozen or screened. MOD CONTACT: If there's trouble, tell me HERE, please!

Comments

DC Comics, Marvel Comics

[hawkfire]

{Offering:}
• Bette Kane | DC Comics (I have four different versions of her, depending on continuity point, but I’m open to AU versions as well.) (bat_girl, feathersandflames, hawkfire, gothamgriffin)
• Cullen Row | DC Comics (parkrowrow)
• Rachel Leighton/Diamondback | Marvel Comics (616) (shinypants)
• Madelyne Pryor | Marvel Comics (616) (pryorities)
• Raz Malhotra/Giant-Man | Marvel Comics (616) (mynewjob)
• Bobby Drake | Marvel Comics (616) [tentatively, still voice testing this guy] (livingpopsicle)

{Fandom:}
• DC Comics
• Marvel Comics

{Seeking:}
• With Bette, I’m looking for anything, really. Games, PSLs, memes with some kind of character continuity between others who tag her. I’d love to find some castmates for her – Kate, Bruce, Dick, Babs, etc. She’s kind of an outlier in the Batfamily regardless of which canon she’s taken from (except maybe Bombshells, where she’s one of the Batgirls), but I’d like to change that through RP. I’m down for shipping and would love a Dick or a Jason to play off of for that, though I’m open to other pairings too, though I generally tend to play Bette as being straight. I’d love some platonic stuff with Barbara and other characters too.
• With Cullen I’m just looking for platonic friend stuff – memes, PSLs, that sort of thing. He’s a teen, so I’m not looking for anything smutty, though he has like the biggest crush on Tim Drake.
• For Rachel and Madelyne I’m also looking for anything – games, PSLs, memes. Castmates, again, would be fantastic – Domino, Inez, even Cap for Rachel, X-Men and the like for Madelyne. I generally play Rachel from her recent Domino era, and with Madelyne I play her post X-Men (vol 4) #12, just after the Arkea arc.
• Raz is pretty much the same, really. I’m generally updating his continuity as he appears, so he’s currently from around the time that Atlantis Attacks begins.
• With Bobby, I’m still voice-testing him, trying to see how I feel about writing him, but I am open to much of what I’m looking for with the other characters above!

{Other Notes:}
• Shipping/Smut: I haven’t actually written a bunch of smut, so I’m not really fantastic at it, but I also don’t wanna rule it out, because, you know, practice and all that.
• Tagging Speed: I have two jobs and work about 70 hours a week, so I’m not always the fastest tagger, but I can manage a couple of tags a day, maybe more depending on what my workload is looking like on any given day. (Both jobs are in front of a computer, so on days where it’s slow I’m able to tag more.)
• Slower-paced games with easy AC preferred for the above reason as well.
• No preferences between prose and brackets
• I’m always down to plot – messaging me here on this journal is probably the best way to get ahold of me for now.
• Timezone wise, I’m PST.

hey, I have a Midnighter I'd love to have check in on Cullen; I was sad when they never met again.

also I love mixing John with supers, if you're interested. He complains about it but likes spectacle deep down.

[hawkfire]

Ahhh, that would be awesome! I've always been super sad that we didn't get more out of that - in some ways, Midnighter would have been a fantastic mentor for Cullen.

And I really dig your Constantine - I've seen him on memes and stuff and you've got a great handle on him. I have a few magically-based DC characters as well - namely Madame Xanadu and a version of Extrano from the recent Midnighter stuff, if you're interested in any of that as well. :)

[strewth]

M would disagree he could mentor anyone but at the same time he can't... say no... to kids.... it would be a great dynamic i'd love to play. likewise catching up with extrano could be v fun. i don't have m up anywhere because i stopped maining him ages ago, but i'll happily resurrect him for these dudes

oh, thank you! i appreciate that a lot! i'd love to do john stuff with anyone, i adore writing him and bouncing him off weird situations, magical or no. i'll reread the bit where john deals with madame x-- while i've read the stuff with reboot john, he's not very fun for me to write, so i prefer hellblazer version. that said i don't mind bouncing him off any version of whoever

[hawkfire]

I am 100% there for that dynamic.

Yeah, my Xanadu is the pre-Flashpoint version, and based a little more heavily in her Vertigo series, with shades of her later stuff thrown in. I stop before she's blinded during Infinity Crisis, though. I actually haven't read her interactions with Constantine much or any Constantine at all, which I've been told I need to fix but I'm definitely down for the two of them meeting!

[thingpuncher]

yessss. here's texting for a light warmup for my rusty m if you like.

ahh bless you. i'm definitely down with that. her and john were on a team book post flashpoint and its genuinely awful 🙃 aaaanyway i keep index of john's open stuff here if you like
