December EMP Meme
FOR GAME ADS: ➤ Put an ad up with the characters / crew / pairings / kink 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 fonts and other html that make ads super long, 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 canon 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. ➤ There is a "Pairings You Want to Play" section, where you can ask for castmates or crosscanon you'd like to ship with. Please format this with "[YOUR CANON] seeking [CASTMATE/OTHER CANON (if crosscanon)/SEE DESCRIPTION (if a general character type)]. For the actual text of the ad you must use the "Pairings You Want to Play" form provided at the bottom of this post so that these ads don't get huge. Alongside castmates and crosscanon, you can choose to ask for OCs or general character types as well. Try not to get too wordy and please don't outline entire scenarios. ➤ 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. ➤ All mod responses regardless of whether they're rule breaks, correction requests (like someone posting in the wrong section), or thwapping someone for spamming copy-paste ads, have always been and will almost universally be public. If someone sends a PM and the conversation gets combative, this will also be made public and posted to the comments of the mod contact page. This is for the sake of transparency so people can judge the emp mod's communications for fairness themselves. There are times where the player's post may be screened (such as if they posted to the wrong section) but the mod's response will be left unscreened. ➤ Players may sometimes be allowed more than one strike for copy-paste ads since this is often just enthusiasm behind it, but game mods should know better. They'll get one warning for copy-paste ads, and if they spam anymore copy-paste ads after the warning, they'll be banned from the meme. ➤ The meme is for fiction-based RP only (with the only exception being involvement of fictionalized historical figures or historical settings.) Celeb or RPF RP advertising, whether for games or players, is not allowed. MOD CONTACT: If there's trouble, tell me HERE, please!

PAIRINGS YOU WANT TO PLAY
genshin impact: ororon & ifa
[who I play]: Ororon
[wanted]: Ifa - and we can share custody of Cacucu if you want
[why]: yes yes I know no one else liked Natlan but I just think they're soooooo cute, and now they've finished the war these bros deserve to live in holy matrihomie
[game/psl info]: PSL or just some memes, whether they're already in an "official" relationship or still have yet to establish one, just lmk what kind of dynamic floats your boat for starting out. I think it would be fun to dig into Ifa's neuroses about losing his family and needing to be needed (voluntary co-dependence 💯), Ororon just being comfortably himself around Ifa and his blossoming gremlin tendencies as he's feeling stronger and healthier and happier, them making up for the time they lost during the war, domesticity and tribal culture clashes, Ororon confusing and exasperating Ifa but like affectionately, reminiscing about childhood, and the juicy implications of Ororon's incomplete soul on his lifespan along with Ifa's complicated feelings about the inevitability of saying goodbye... :')
the iliad, menelaus/paris
[who I play]: Paris of Troy / Greek myth/the Iliad
[wanted]: Menelaus
[why]: I mean. Why not?? There's so much possible tension and connection there, both accounting for both of their connection to Helen aside from that! Some of the way Menelaus talks about Paris in the Iliad before the duel (how the variant where he uses 'ate/delusion' has an excusing flavour, for example!) and the very sexually-tinged language both Helen and Hektor use... ;)
[game/psl info]: Things I'd want in general: Playing out those nine days before Menelaus leaves, either as merely UST or a full-blown, developed mutual thing; tension of love-hate etc during the war as they meet in non-combat circumstances, or canon divergences to take the war in a different direction. AUs in general, whether canon divergence or more freer!
There's a rare variant where Menelaus goes to Troy first, needing to sacrifice at a couple tombs; I'd love to play that out, with a same sort of either UST only or developing into a fully realized mutual thing as above.
My Hero Academia, Katsuki Bakugo / Izuku Midoriya
[who I play]: Izuku Midoriya 430+/end of season 7 anime!
[wanted]: 430+ Katsuki Bakugo!
[why]: < Insert 10-page essay >, I really love them and would like to explore their dynamic as a romantic ship. I usually write Katsuki myself, but would like to write Izuku this time.
[psl info]: There is a lot of story, setting, or ideas I can run by you depending on what you are looking for, so please DM me if interested. I don't mind going with your ideas or whatever meme catches our interest. I'm also okay with just coming up with something on the fly! I have tons of ideas myself we could play at, so just hit me up!
Tin Man | DG/Wyatt Cain
[who I play]: DG / Tin Man
[wanted]: Wyatt Cain
[why]: Look I just really like the two of them, and am sad that they went more lowkey than the romance was originally going to be. There's so much slowburn potential and I want to explore ALL OF IT!
[game/psl info]: She's new and very much in the voicetesting stage so I'm just playing around on memes and PSLs for the moment. I'd love to explore post-miniseries things. Moments we didn't see in it.
House of the Dragon: Helaena/Aemond
[who I play]: Helaena Targaryen / House of the Dragon
[wanted]: Aemond Targaryen
[why]: I'd love to explore the two of them and their relationship in a romantic/shippy setting. Whether that's because the two of them were betrothed instead, or they just have their thing on the side, or any other reason. I'm here for all of them. Including slotting the pair into other canons to see how things go.
[game/psl info]: PSLs and memes, mostly, maybe musebox shenanigans, too. I'm current to the end of the first season, but I know what happens in season 2. Here for AUs, and what-ifs, and exploring different paths in canon and all the moments in between.
seraph of the end: catastrophe at 16, guren & shinya
[who I play]: Guren
[wanted]: Shinya
[why]: Kind of a longshot, but hoping to explore them from earlier on in their stories like this! The back and forth of wanting to have their youth but being thrust into various situations where they're unable to is what fuels me the most. ♥ I want to ruin their lives, but like, outside of the chaos that is the current canon, haha. So, any canon point within catastrophe at 16 is nice, but I'd like to keep it pre-main series seraph of the end. I'd be happy to help with icons for anyone who'd need them.
[game/psl info]: A game would be my favorite place to end, but I am okay with either testing them first on memes to see if our writing meshes or keeping it entirely to memes, as well!
MCU | Olivia Walker/John Walker, Olivia Walker/Bucky Buchanan
[who I play]: Olivia Walker/MCU
[wanted]: John Walker, Bucky Buchanan
[why]: Look, I love me a good slowburn, and I'd love to explore two exes slowly reconnecting and getting to a better place and slowly rebuilding a better romantic relationship. (Also castmate shenanigans as they do would be fucking fun as hell.) As far as her and Bucky… insert "I just think that they'd be neat" gif here. Also fun complicated times all around.
[game/psl info]: She's new and voicetesty so I'm mostly just playing around with her on memes for the moment. She does have an open post in her journal for non-meme shenanigans, too.
Monarch: Legacy of Monsters | Keiko/Lee
[who I play]: Keiko Miura/Randa / Monarch: Legacy of Monsters
[wanted]: Lee Shaw / Monarch: Legacy of Monsters
[why]: There's snark and banter and soft touches and it's kind of a slowburn. It takes Keiko a little time to trust him but once she DOES… and Lee's torn between his duty to the military and his loyalty to his friends. They're just SO GOOD.
[game/psl info]: PSLs or memes, although a game eventually COULD be fun. I mostly just want to play around with the two of them. I love them a lot. Explore what might have happened if they'd pursued something before she fell. She's new (because it took me a while to come up with a username) and DEEPLY voicetesty for me, but I love them and am here for all the shenanigans.
Trigun/TriMax/Trigun: Stampede // Teen Wolf
[Where]: PSL/Memes
[who I play]: Stiles Stilinski ≠ Teen Wolf
[wanted]: Teen Wolf ≠ Peter Hale, Derek Hale, any of the other characters tbh, will also enjoy OCs as well!
[why]: Stiles has phenomenal chemistry with both Hales and having played with the pairings before, they are a blast to play. Their whole dynamic is also fun to play around with. Would not mind it going into nsfw territory. I also enjoy playing Cross-Canon with other Supernatural type shows, since I feel Stiles is the type of character that can be adapted to any of those types of shows.
[game/psl info]: I am completely open for new things, memes, psls we come up with, or just general shenanigans. :) I have a musebox for Stiles as well, if that's more your flavor.
Trigun/TriMax/Trigun: Stampede ☇ Vash/Wolfwood; Vash/Nai; Plantwood
[Where]: PSL/Memes
[who I play]: Vash, Wolfwood; Trigun
[wanted]: Vashwood, Plantwood, Plantbois; I am open to OCs and possibly other pairings.
[why]: Been hankering for some rp'ing with Vash or Wolfwood. Re-watching the series to gear up for Trigun: Stargaze coming in the new year has restarted my love for playing these idiots.
[game/psl info]: I am completely open for new things, memes, psls we come up with, or just general shenanigans. :)
critical role (the mighty nein): blumendrei, astrid/caleb, astrid/eadwulf
[who I play]: astrid becke
[wanted]: caleb and/or eadwulf (I'm partial to the campaign + caleb's origin comic but can work with the animated show!)
[why]: I want to sink my teeth into the interrupted love and familiarity between astrid and caleb, the lingering fondness, the dangerous game of "can I trust you" and "I would hurt you if I needed to," her struggle to go along with caleb's plan and not kill trent, her denied catharsis (that technically gets denied a second time because she's unfortunately just an npc in her canon). I want aus where they reunite earlier in canon or where she's involved in taking trent down again in blumenthal. I want everything from exploring resentments to potential healing to wildly conflicted sex and affection between exes who don't quite know what they'll do with each other but share a bond that shaped them dramatically, one that no one but these three can fully understand. I also want to dig into how she and eadwulf dealt with the loss of bren (and the return of caleb), how they may have learned the full truth about trent's manipulations, what their relationship was like "offscreen" and the depth of their trust in each other and what harrowing adventures they had on their own. absolutely down for three-way threads (and actual threesomes) if both characters can be found. I ramble a little more on last month's pslfinder.
Dragon Age: Hawke/Varric
[who I play]: Hawke/Dragon Age
[wanted]: Varric
[why]: With Hawke/Varric WE WERE ROBBED! They're just so much fun together, and I want to explore more of that. Especially with a slowburn towards the romantic. And honestly I remember reading somewhere that they almost put in a post-script scene of the two of them talking where he was all "don't worry, I didn't tell her about us" and I like that. I like that a lot.
[game/psl info]:PSL-land is where it's at for me, and I mostly want to play around with canon. And AU!canon. Specifically an Inquisitor!AU where Hawke ends up Inquisitor. I just think it would be extremely fun to explore that with Varric, since he's the one she knows and has history with. Also to talk vaguely around Veilguard spoilers, although I haven't played it yet I am aware Of Things, and am 1000% here for FIXING IT.
GIVEN: Akihiko/Ugetsu
Send a pm here if interested!
xenoblade 2: malos and jin
[who I play]: Jin from Xenoblade 2
[wanted]: Malos from Xenoblade 2
[why]: Because I'm into filthy yearning made reality. I'm here for two people who saw something in each other and recklessly dove into destroying the world to deal with their grief and pain instead of holding each other. I'm here for the fact that the love was real but so were the wounds and the pain that got in the way. I would love to see them have closure! I would love to play out the 500 years of plotting! Soft things, painful things, yearning things. Give me all of it.
[game/psl info]: No game, but pm me or hit me up on bakerstreet for stuff.
Sleepy Hollow: Abbie/Ichabod
[who I play]: Abbie Mills / Sleep Hollow
[wanted]: Ichabod Crane / Sleepy Hollow
[why]: Sleepy Hollow did Abbie Mills (and Nicole Beharie) WRONG, and we missed out on SO MUCH. The two of them were absolutely fucking fantastic. Chemistry for DAYS.
[game/psl info]: PSLs and memes, mostly. She's new and voicetesty and still needs more/different icons, plus I'm working my way through a re-watch so I'm still early on in season 1, but I want to fix things and explore the two of them slowburning towards something romantic. How things would have gone if she hadn't been sidelined and killed. (Maybe she doesn't die, or maybe he comes back for her, is ABLE to come back for her. IDK. We can fix it. Make it better.)
spy x family | loid+yor
[who I play]: Loid Forger / "Twilight"
[wanted]: Yor Forger
[why]: look if tatsuya endo won't put this man in a situation where he'll recognize he cares more about his fake wife than just "for the mission" then i fucking will--
[psl info]: Okay, I say that but if I'm here I'm obviously a sucker for a good slowburn and marriage-of-convenience-becomes-something-more tropes. I'm primarily interested in exploring the relationship pre-reveal, but I'd be open to the idea of doing something post-reveal after the psl runs its course for a bit. Other than that, I don't have a lot in mind!
(Side note: I've been out of the dwrp game for... a while, and as such I'm pretty rusty and slow wrt tag speed, but I'll backtag into eternity as long as I know there's interest in it!)
trigun stampede: meryl strife multishipping
[who I play]: meryl strife / trigun stampede
[wanted]: vash, wolfwood, knives, honestly i'd be interested in any other castmates too! doesn't have to be stampede specific, either! anyone from the tcu (trigun cinemangamatic universe) is appreciated
[why]: really love meryl's dynamic with vash and wolfwood and all the mashwood art i've seen. i'd also ship her with knives because i'm trash. excited for stargaze coming out soon!
[game/psl info]: open to anything new! meme, psl, shenanigans. if wolfwood, be ready to get hit by her van as a starter. jk. unless....?
