April EMP Meme

[enablemeplz]

ENABLEMEPLZ meme goes up on the Second 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!

ugh I love them so much! Within the Eagles I usually play Edelgard as feeling closest to Hubert, of course, and Dorothea because I kind of feel like Edelgard's most unguarded in her supports with Dorothea (which isn't to say she's not guarded but there's an ease in their friendship that I don't feel in all of Edelgard's supports right from the beginning, you know what I mean?).

What would you think about maybe doing something where Dorothea fell in with the blions immediately after the incident at the Holy Tomb because she was taken so off guard by the reveal and scrambling for some stability but five years later (and with Dimitri's obvious personal anger toward Edelgard maybe rubbing her the wrong way) she reevaluates her choices? This is just me throwing ideas around but maybe it could be something where she volunteers to participate in the attack on monastery in the CF storyline but is doing it because she's been thinking of rejoining the Empire and maybe heals someone important to Edelgard's cause in the attack (like Ladislava or Randolph?) and uses the attention she gets to ask for an audience with the Emperor. Lets us work through some conflict despite their affection for each other.

I'm wide open to other ideas, though, so if there's something else that you'd like to do by all means let's brainstorm!

Also yeah, as much as I love Lysithea I don't really ship Edelgard with her. There's no reason we can't do something more gen with them at some point, though!

[battlemaged]

Sounds good! Apologies for the late reply; we've had thunderstorms and sinus infections galore. But yeah, let's give it a go!

[counterstep]

i'm fine with anything you're feeling and whatever you'd like to dive in with! i'm real easy and game for anything if you'd prefer me to hit up one of your top levels specifically too! i wrote a lot of starters today tho so if you'd prefer me to start, i can drop something on one of your things tomorrow! just lmk what u feelin! c:

[stillatwar]

Trust me I feel the same way about Frank lol.

I will hit you up on one of the current memes! Anything you're in the mood for for any of my MCU peeps?

[domine_dirige_nos]

Marc is a very good puncher. I should probably be worried for Matthew xD

I doubt Matthew is going to come out swinging though, if that makes a difference. He's pretty unassuming.

[reciprocate]

offering arataki itto!

• i'm not picky with genre and medium (open to cross-canon, cross-medium, ocs, the like), though i do prefer blending canons together rather than planting itto away from what he's accustomed to.
• open to both memes and psls! sticking to memes at the beginning is cool just to see if we vibe. if you have any toplevels hanging around over at bakerstreet, feel free to send them my way and i'll hit you up!
• the default will always be gen silliness considering who he is. definitely open to exploring the more solemn topics with him as well since we know he's capable; he's just a bulky absurdity who plays way too much.
• as for ships: i'll try anything once as long as the chemistry is there between muses and our writing styles.
• i'm a very slow tagger and tend to wait until my days off from work to get to tags with prose involved so backtagging is a must for me. i'm also kind of still voice-testing so that contributes to my lack of speed.
👹 feel free to pm this journal!

[beatings]

Hello I made a starter here! Please let me know if you want anything changed and I'll edit!!

[carceral]

ahh, this is beautiful! thank you so much and you're also welcome to PM me if anything in my reply makes no sense, haha. 💜 apologies for the length, it should be much more reasonable once the thread gets going,,,

drakengard/nier, horizon, persona 5

[seeker]

OFFERING;

a2 | NieR: AUTOMATA | abandonware
akeha | NieR: ReINcarnation | hakage
aloy | HORIZON SERIES | seeker
ann takamaki | PERSONA 5 ROYAL* | pantera
five | DRAKENGARD 3 | strumpet

SEEKING;

- memes, psls
- up for gen, slow burn shipping and smut*
- * not interested in big age gaps for smut with ann
- f/f and f/m, nb/* are all fine for aloy, a2, akeha and five, i prefer f/f & nb characters for ann but if the chemistry works i'm cool w/anything.
- canon, crosscanon and aus are all fine. ocs are cool on a case by case basis.
- dynamics i like are: close connections forged through some kind of mutual strife or danger, long sprawling angsty psls w/focus on character psychology, psych horror and character exploration, partnerships esp. partners in crime, celeb aus. arranged marriages, spoils of war, fake relationships, red string of fate, vampire & other monster aus, bodyguard relationships/differences in status i'm a big fan of too! also fine with generic jamjar scenarios.
- memes i like: body heat, sexting, rain/snow/weather memes, train to the afterlife, pet person, vampire memes, morning after, midfuck, road trip, denny's/walmart/any random part of americana memes, and random scenario memes. i'm happy to just kick tags back and forth on memes, so if you have a toplevel in one feel free to link me!
- exploration of ai/human relationships is of particular interest to me with a2
- deranged, dark and imbalanced power dynamics with five (with her as the dominant party) are a plus
- would love canonmates for aloy! my kingdom for the new forbidden west characters in particular, but any of her companions would be fantastic.
- i'm fine w/auing my characters into another setting, modern/college aus, and other canons if i'm familiar with them.
- voicetesting ann so i might be a little shaky!

i prefer brackets but i can do prose. my pacing is typically a 1 day turnaround but can be up to 7-10 days depending on what I have going on. it's a little sporadic, so if you're okay with that we should be a good fit! info for my characters should be in each of their journals. i'm more interested in if characters have chemistry/work well together, and not necessarily particular mediums.

CONTACT;

- feel free to comment here or pm one of my journals. you can ask for discord once we've had enough threads going.
- available throughout the day fri/sat PST time (GMT-8, GMT -7 during DST), during the rest of the week i may be a little spotty.

hey! i think spock would be fascinating at returnjourney, if only because i personally wanna see what he'd get up to there. it's a redemption-focused game, where characters are sorted either as inmates (if they've done bad things, are villains, etc) or wardens (who watch over inmates and help them graduate). since spock is used to structured environments on starships, he'd be pretty at home, but since the journey of redemption is hugely reliant on emotions and personal growth, i feel like you'd have a lot to work with as a player.

trj is slow to medium paced, with a mix of sol and exploration on alien worlds, aus and other fun events. the ac is pretty simple as well, with a bonus point system. here's our tdm!

[goty]

hey! you might be interested in returnjourney! aerith is such an empathetic, caring character, but also pretty tough, it'd be interesting to see her in a redemption-focused game. the basic premise is... characters are either inmates (if they're villains or have otherwise done really bad things) or wardens (who both help inmates to grow and change as well as keep them from getting up to more bad shit). aerith would have her work cut out for her on board.

the game is slow to medium paced, and we have au events as well as going on alien worlds, and other random events. it's a good mix of sol and scifi adventure, with the inmate / warden dynamic there to keep tension and focus. here's our tdm!

[goty]

hey, i think returnjourney might be relevant to your interests. i think you'd have a lot to work with as a player in our setting, especially with a dynamic character like edelgard. the game is split between inmates (characters who have done bad things they need to repent for, villains or otherwise) and wardens (people who are in charge of keeping inmates in line, as well as helping them to repent and grow). i'm not sure if you'd peg edelgard as a warden or an inmate (full disclosure: my memory of fe3 is hazy), but we have room for borderline wardens and inmates alike. the game structure ensures there's always something to do.

the game has sol elements intersperced with scifi, going to alien worlds as well as au events and more random events caused by random space phenomena. it's a small game with a small to medium pace, easy ac, and lots of room to backtag. our tdm is here!

[goty]

hey! you might be interested in returnjourney, since its premise is very open to villains. characters are sorted into either inmates (characters who have done bad things, aforementioned villains, etc) and wardens (who keep inmates in line as well as try to help them redeem themselves). we also have a viktor. we previously had a silco, but they dropped; that said, they revealed v little of their plans or thoughts, so if you apped, your silco would still be coming in without any characters knowing too much about him or his life, etc.

there are some events that involve auing, but those aren't the majority, and they're pretty quick (the last one was just under a week in length). the game is scifi with occasional sol to pad it out, and it's got very easy ac. check out our tdm!

[goty]

hey there! you might be interested in returnjourney. it's a redemption game where characters are either inmates (b/c they've done bad things, are villains, etc) or wardens (who keep the inmates in line, as well as try and help them redeem themselves). i feel like mccoy would have a lot to work with, since he's maybe not the most emotionally forward guy.

the setting is sf with a bit of sol around the edges, slow to medium paced, simple ac, and we're very friendly to backtagging. we have a wide variety of events, from visiting alien planets to aus to other weird miscellaneous things. check out our tdm!

ar tonelico, wakfu, hyperdimension neptunia, steins;gate, genshin maybe; cross-canon enjoyed!

[manolia]

i have:
infel | ar tonelico 2
qilby | wakfu
chibi | islands of wakfu
noire | hyperdimension neptunia
rintaro okabe | steins;gate
baizhu | genshin impact (tentatively)

you ideally have:
- cool ideas! i love jamjars, i love making up AUs, i love character exploration and slow-burn and writing strong emotions. scholar types will probably get along well with most of these characters. sketchy people with Grand Plans will get along with infel or qilby, and probably baizhu, just fine. or you can bring in someone completely different and we can have a delightful antagonistic time!
- also i will basically play anything i find funny.
- i love cross-canon!!! canon is also EXTREMELY good, but i definitely get it's a bit of a long shot. i am used to playing LCWs, so i generally don't need a canon relationship to make up a reason for two characters to talk.
- i do enjoy playing ships and smut! both of the girls on my list are f/f only and both are hopelessly pining for someone already, but i'd love to plot with you if you want another girl to smooch them. i live for the slow burn. for the dudes, m/m only with qilby (for fuck's sake look at him lmao), anything goes for chibi, i am very interested in playing baizhu off a zhongli, and i will not ship okabe with anyone but kurisu (sorry!)
- some patience! i work full-time in healthcare but i'm trying my best.
- respond here or PM this journal, or you can also yell at me on discord discopolice#8223!

INCENSED - a fantasy horror game

[blackmages]

You take a deep breath.
PREMISE RULES/FAQ NAVIGATION RESERVES APPLICATIONS TAKEN CURRENT TDM	The smell of incense fills your nostrils, your lungs, your senses. You can't place the scent exactly, but somehow it feels familiar. You open your eyes, and you're awash in a cloud of thick fog, the outer edges of your vision curling and wafting into the air like tendrils of smoke. It overwhelms you with its heady scent, making your pulse quicken and your thoughts become difficult to keep ahold of. Blindly, you reach out in front of you as if to draw back the edges of the haze like a curtain, only to stumble and fall, emerging from the haze and into a different world entirely. A world where, many years ago, a terrible curse was unleashed across the continent, causing the land to be shrouded in not only mist, but mystery. Plants and animals became monsters, and in many respects, so did the people. In the years since, some have found ways to survive in this world of perfumed, maddening fog, but as of yet there hasn't been any way to make it all stop. But there are legends. Legends that deep within the ancient, forgotten ruins, a collection of unique relics may be the very things creating the incense. If only there were adventurers capable of reaching them, legend has it that uniting each of the relics would put an end to the curse once and for all. All these years and no one has even come close, and the world falls further and further into madness. Until now. You're here. And you can find fortune, untold power, and glory as a hero during your stay. You take a deep breath. Then it's time to get a move on.

[goty]

hey! you might be interested in returnjourney. while i'm not familiar with aelin, i do think liz bennet or sarah williams would be interested in a redemption style game like ours. characters are sorted as either inmates (when they've done very bad things, are villains, etc) or wardens (whose job it is to both keep inmates in line and help them redeem themselves). the tension between the two groups means there's always something interesting to do.

the basic premise is scifi flavor, with occasional sol to round things out. ac is laid back with an easy system for rewards. we're medium to slow paced, a smallish game. our events vary from exploring alien planets to aus to more random miscellaneous things. try out our tdm!

[repaying]

i've got a natasha here if you wanna do something with them! i'm down for angsty shippy slowburn etc!

[hyakugou]

Sure :> I don't browse memes much on my own, but if you see something interesting lmk?

[hyakugou]

Oh excellent 8> I'll send you a PM later to hash stuff out

[homeostatic]

I'm definitely giving it a look, thanks for the heads up!

[catholica]

oooh yes, i would definitely love that. idk what you're really vibing with when it comes to angsty slowburn as far as setting. you have a preference for something like that?

[homeostatic]

That sounds right up my alley! I'll try to have a post on the tdm soon 👍
