outofshadows | 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!

Hidden, yes I like that better.

[ He moved through the steps easily. It was nice to have a partner who knew what they were doing. He couldn't help the grin, though his eyes widdened some.]

Really? I would be quite interested to read his works.

[The dance was not hard, feet falling in formal patterns even as they swished in the water of the puddle. Posture perfectly locked into frame and a challenge in Sulu's eyes, could he remember how to turn a girl? Could she keep up with someone that had hundreds of years to master this kind of skill? Sulu didn't know the answers for sure, but she would not hesitate to find them.]

If the library has so many different books from other universes, maybe they're somewhere on the shelves waiting to be read.

[For a brief moment, a pang of homesickness hit her heart. Not for the ship or crew she loved so dearly. But for a family, a father that had been her closest ally for so many years. The man that she adored so much she tried to emulate in versatility.]

[ Dorian had spent more nights spinning partners on the floor then he had spent obsessing on music. Which was to say he had a lot of practice between his wife, then his sire and her friend Maria. Over half of his long years had been spent playing socialite with the friends of his sire despite his misery in it all he had learned to dance better and even to enjoy the time he could mingle with normal people.

He could still very much spin a woman. He had more then enough skill he just worried with the water that he would risk tripping her still after her words were spoke he moved to lead her into the spin.]

I shall have to look into that then, I am always interested in such works of art. It was a dying skill in my world at least. Everyone more concerned about writing and singing of baser desires with no time for poetics.

[If she slipped a little in the water, Sulu only needed to tighten her hand and hold onto him a bit more. The twisting and slow twirling was successful even if she ended up half a step closer than before.]

If you find them, let me know. [Sulu was unsure if she'd be willing to read her father's work here. Not that she didn't already know it by heart. There was something strange about the idea of seeing his words in this place, that made her shiver.]

[ Feeling the slight slip he tightened up his grip a little as well, when she ended up a step closer he smiled down easily at her moving a little slower with her in the puddle. Dorian was thankful for his love of boots, they were usually water proof so he wasn't miserable in the wet mess around them. As long as he lived in Georgia and walked back roads to get home, he learned how important good boots were.]

You will be the first to know. [ He replied a tone or so lower. He pulled her close then and stopped dancing looking into her eyes a moment before stepping back and bowing.] I should take my leave.

[ It was his way, when he felt himself getting too close, he had to run.]
