August EMP Meme
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!

I will not pay attention to IPs otherwise. I don't care what people like playing or who's who. So please feel comfortable to keep doing your thing, anon or otherwise. The knowledge will only be used for really egregious problem cases. |

but I want her, hahaha, zuko can go pout about it

I, on the other hand, am actually a Netflix baby!! New Generation fan! I have no excuse or reason for sleeping on this show for the past decade, lmao. But I'm so on board now, haha. idk Zuko must have roused something deep within me that prompted me to pick up role-playing again, I'd quit for a few years but used to be pro too, back in the golden days, hah. So I'm definitely running on that fresh adrenaline so far~ Studying up and rewatching carefully consistently, lots of notes taken!! But I haven't finished reading all the comics yet, just read the one about Ursa as soon as I finished my first watch of the show. And of course the comics can rise higher on my to-do list now, ha, so at least I would understand Azula's older psychology better if you do bring her in... SO this would be an especially fresh raw experience in many ways, haha, which I think is very exciting but ngl intimidating haha, just like Azula should be... :v
all that said, I've pulled him from the very night before Sozin's Comet and the coup. So he came in a panic attack like "am I absent, what if Aang and the Fatherlord defeat each other, Is Azula Fire Lord, Is Azula Fire Lord, Is Azula Fire Lord..." so he's been thinking a lot about u already, gurl c: even in his dreams lol
as to moonblessings, I'm gonna have fun playing with this I think. he just got accepted into the game this month (even though I played him on the TDM all of July too, keeping those experiences canon in-game and handwaving a couple weeks, so he's effectively been here two months); so September coming now, I can do something more with the moonblessings at last. It's sooo flexible, you can honestly do anything you want to any degree, within the given lines. so naturally I want to humiliate and torture Zuko psychologically. :) beartimes will be funtimes...~
no subject
i love the idea of Zuko just turning into a bear. picks him up and shakes him
okay so i'll keep an eye out on the TDM and i won't make any promises but i'll give it a shot (i also just came back from a long DWRP break). i just joined a different sex game and don't want to overwhelm myself, but lbr i'm a sucker for castmates and i'd love to play hilarious sibling shenanigans :( plus it'd be fun since Azula would be older! finally can call him little brother forever

I’m excited to be part of the Avatar bandwagon, thank you for being so welcoming! It is intimidating coming in to an old very popular fandom with such a beloved character, higher expectations of the player than most I think, compared to minor character or unpopular series I’m used to playing from. So far I’ve been told I’m on the mark, and I’m having a blast, so lol just gonna blaze forward, ha~ 🔥
Lol bear Zuko is just gonna be miserable and adorable. He’s already become best friends with Gokudera from Katekyo Hitman Reborn, and only Gokudera is allowed to touch him as a bear lol. Korra and Asami can SEE him. And otherwise that’s it. He’d be mortified if Azula saw him. Mortified. So obvs we’d have to make it happen if you end up amongst us haha~
But nah no pressure as much as I want to pressure you hahaha~ I totally get not wanting to overload yourself, esp since we’re both jumping back in recently. I’m playing another character at Prisma and ever since Zuko got accepted, he’s been neglected lol. Muse protection services need to intervene, I’m a negligent player lol. It’s hard to juggle even in the same game! But by all means at least just for gits and shiggles, I’d love to play with you in a lil TDM thread, even if you don’t end up applying for real. We could still get a lot of the same gratification from it and I don’t abandon threads, typically, so we can milk it ehehe. I also like keeping the TDM canon so even if it’s just one thread for funsies, Zuko can still remember “that time Azula came for one afternoon wtf.” The more brain breaking the better lol.
I’m going for a certain KIND of misery for Zuko in this game... I want to give him the normal happy teenage life he never got the chance to try for. But also none of his experiences overlap with that and trauma coping mechanisms don’t work on this kind of normal mundane pain. So life will be more peaceful outwardly but not inwardly lol. I want him to have his first heartbreak, a jealous love triangle, a shitty job, to struggle to fit in with kids his age and embarrass himself missing social cues, get confused crushing on a friend cuz he’s poorly socialized and can’t discern those feelings easily, get drunk for the first/second/third time lol, get under different people’s influences for better or worse, all of it... The visceral human pain of being sixteen lol. Remove him from his trauma and just. place him into different trauma. But with more silver
liningssandwiches lol. That’s the “I’m a real boy now” genki-flavored perpetual existential crisis I’m planning for him, so you know what vibe I’m on here so far haha... I just want his happiness to hurt, basically lol.no subject
well i'm definitely on board with the TDM next time, count me in! if you want to stay in touch i'm at plurk
no subject
And no, u right, Azula cannot have a shitty job, she has nails to keep did~ ✨💅🏻 Zuko wants the shitty job almost on principle that it’s shitty cuz he’s a schmaltzy masochist like that idefk lmao. He’s gonna be a busboy at a teppanyaki restaurant. wompwomp. but it keeps him away from the general public enough, so that seems mutually beneficial lmao. Azula seems she could be an excellent waitress until the precise moment she wouldn’t be lmao...
Yayyy I'm so stoked for our thread tho! Til then, I’ll tell you I’m awful at plurk cuz I’m an old fart who can’t keep up with social media lol BUT my plurk is
