Shipping Meme



Welcome to the ToS Shipping Meme! The rules are simple.

1. Post your character/preferences.
2. Reply to other characters with one of the following scenarios
3. Ship it!

Remember, this is just a fun meme so you can ship things that would NEVER SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY in game. Yay for no in-character consequences to bad decisions.


SCENARIOS
1. Stupid Cupid Your characters stumble upon a room in the temple that is dedicated to Berkano, which is the rune of love and new beginnings. Think Midsummer Night's Dream. Your characters may be close friends, strangers, or sworn enemies. Whatever the case is, they are now suddenly and inexplicably in complete and total love. They may or may not be aware that this makes no sense, but they can't help themselves.

2. Some Like It Hot Forget love and new beginnings. Your characters have ACTUALLY stumbled upon a room in the temple that is dedicated to Kenaz, the rune of fire, passion, and sex. There's no stopping you, even if you tried. Luckily, the room is prepared for that, and comes equipped with a bed. Whether or not you guys make it that far across the room is another question.

3. I Can Hear The Bells Your characters are getting married. Maybe it's true love, maybe it's to get out of marrying Tristan, maybe you're being forced into it and this ship is a little dub-con, or maybe it's because you accidentally participated in some Nysgod ritual and weren't aware of its implications. Either way, the wedding is about to happen or just has. How do you feel about that?

4. I Don't Want To Go Your character has been determined to NOT be the one for Tristan. Whether or not they like it, they're being sent home. Do they choose to spend it with a close friend, with the one they love? Or maybe, do they decide to finally tell that person they've always had a crush on just how they feel? You only have one night left, what you do with it is up to you.

5. The First Time Your characters are interested in each other and it's time to do something about it. Either the first date, the first kiss, the first I love you....or some other significant first. Whatever it is, it's definitely time to take that step. So who's going to take the initiative?

6. The Morning After Your characters definitely went at it. Maybe it's the first time, maybe they're cheating on someone, maybe it was out of anger. Whatever the case, for some reason, it was significant and you're going to have to talk about it. Good morning, Starshine! The earth says it's time for some cuddling and/or awkward conversation.

7. Potpourri Have another idea? Pregnancy, proposal, accidental body contact, trapped together, caught in the rain, hurt/comfort, etc? Go for it! Make your own scenarios up and run with them.


NOTE: Feel free to throw any mirrors into play if you're interested!

Aileen nodded, though it was more for herself than for Roland. She didn't care if he saw. She sighed, quietly, pulling her hand away, her arms resting uncomfortably in her lap. She said nothing, swinging her legs over the edge of Roland's bed and beginning to pull on her clothing.

He caught her arm (of course he was quick enough to catch her; this was no question) when she turned away. He said nothing for a moment, staring fixedly before him. Then:

"This isn't what I would have wanted for you."

And only then did he turn toward her.

Aileen was still. For how long, she wasn't entirely certain. Her shirt slipped out of her free hand and onto the floor and she turned, watching Roland's eyes.

"How do you mean?"

"Like this. Made mad by the Nysgods for a night."

And with me, but he doesn't speak that thought. He would love her, if he could, if such a thing were possible. It isn't. He doesn't. And he feels as much betrayer as betrayed, another one caught in the temporary madness, made to forget and confuse.

But what's done is done. And cannot be undone, not now nor ever.

"It's more of their lies and falsehoods."

Aileen deflated once again, slipping her arm from his grip to return to dressing herself. He really was miserable at giving comfort, wasn't he.

"Yes. Just lies." She shouldn't have come here last night. All that came of it was an awful, twisting feeling in her chest. Madness, he called it. But it was over now, and the 'sane' Roland was back. The real Roland. Who tried, in his own sorry, broken way, but in the end only made it worse. Aileen hid her face, dangling her feet over the edge of the bed. If he were any other man, it would have been easy.

Perhaps this was so difficult because he met this like he met everything else. Dry logic and no emotion. He spoke the truth, but the truth hurt. Especially after pretending for a night.
