PROTECTOR/PROTECTED

There’s no real push to your actions; you do them as if they were second nature. Perhaps, initially, you were assigned this role, as protector and guardian of this person. Maybe you took it on because there was no one else. A natural guardian or not, good or evil, you caught a shining to them and felt…something. Something hard to explain, but you want to keep them safe and happy - or at the very least, content. No one is as dedicated to them as you. You want them to reach their goals; to help them achieve them, you'll do what you must, even if it means being their gofer or their right hand.

But most of all, you don't want them to end up like you. They're worth more than that.

Yet somehow, along the line, you became more to them, more than just their protector. You protect them anew and you've found a different way to make them happy. It's selfish, too, because you love them in your way and you want them more than anything. You may feel guilty, of course. They don't, though, and that's what matters.

  • Comment with your character, preferences, and what you'd prefer to play: protector or protected.
  • Remember, you don't have to be so rigid. A traditionally weak character can "protect" a traditionally strong one in emotional ways.

HOW DO YOU THINK YOU'LL DIE?

  • No blank top-levels.
  • Instead, characters are to respond to the proposed question: how will you die?
  • Needless to say, triggers will turn up. Be respectful and play accordingly.

💋

kiss request

remember call in radio shows where the DJ would play whatever song you sought? this is like that, but with mouth to mouth.

( how to play )


  • Comment with your character + preferences.

  • Bakerstreeters send a 💋, indicating they're craving a kiss with them. No logic needed.

  • Pucker up! Top level receivers determine whether or not the smooch will occur.



yeah, i've heard of bears?

☀️ Cabin in the Woods 🌄



A night in the woods, a staple of any endless summer! You don't have service out here, so there's no need to worry about pesky things like phone calls or text messages. Don't worry about noise pollution, either; there's not a single soul around. You're so far out of the way, in fact, that no one can hear you scream! Isn't that fun?

how to play;
  • Comment with your character and whether you prefer things be all summer fun or a total summer bummer.
  • Reply to others.
  • Enjoy your time at the cabin in the woods!

TABOO meme

Most societies have certain mores that are unspoken rules; humanity itself even has such conventions, grilled subconsciously into our minds for our own safety. Don't go out alone at night. Avoid getting wet when it's cold. Don't pick fights with those stronger than you...okay, some of us missed the boat on the last one, but the point still stands. Society's rules tend to be more variable, though they apply to most aspects of life - including sex. In fact, bending the rules on what's considered acceptable in romance and sexual encounters can lead to anything from ostracization to death, depending on the time and culture.

So, play it close to the chest if you're going to do a big, big, big t a b o o. Is it worth the risk?

How to Play


- Comment with your character and preferences. Be sure to include what you want and what you DON'T WANT. Blank comments are fine; info is even better!
- Reply to others.
- Be fun and respect others, as this will deal with some heavy topics and potentially triggering material s.

Hyboria Meme

“Know, oh prince, that between the years when the oceans drank Atlantis and the gleaming cities, and the years of the rise of the Sons of Aryas, there was an Age undreamed of, when shining kingdoms lay spread across the world like blue mantles beneath the stars.”

-Robert E. Howard, The Complete Chronicles of Conan


The Age of Hyboria AU






The Age of Hyboria was marked with barbarism, slavery and general nastiness. Only the strong or cunning typically survived here, this was no time for the slow or the weak. And so it was, that your character has found themselves born to this harsh world. Perhaps they seek to make a name for themselves, or perhaps they are just attempting to survive. Either way this is a time of adventure, promise, romance, wealth and opportunity. Well, for those who are willing to go the extra mile and snag them.

The only question left to ask is, what will you be? A hulking barbarian hailing from Cimmeria or a cunning mage from Stygia? Or perhaps you're a knight or soldier belonging to the kingdom of Aquilonia?


Either way how this works is as follows:

A: Go ahead and post your character, canon and preferences.
B: Comment around, the only way to get things started is to talk to everyone.
C: Choose a prompt, or just wing it! Either way, have fun. As a side note, the prompts below are only meant to be suggestions on getting started. Following in the spirit of the original world created by Robert E. Howard, I would recommend branching out and doing your own thing.

A Deadly Trap Disguised As A Meme
I have a bad feeling about this...



Look who just failed a perception check! That's right, it's you!

Whether you've just triggered an awful trap, wandered into a dangerous place, or picked up a cursed amulet, you're about to have a very bad time. I sure hope there's someone here to help you get out of Situations™ because you're not getting out of this on your own.

Instructions:
  • Post with your character (name, fandom, preferences, feelings on assumed CR)
  • Other people reply to yours with a prompt.
  • One or the other of you triggers a deadly trap.
  • Good Luck!

(kink)shame your muse(s)!

It's  simple, really. Think of the age-old practice of dog shaming, but hornier, and with better results.

HOW TO PLAY

  • Post your character with a 'shameful' kink as the subject.
    • Shame here is subjective. We don't really care what the kink is so long as they're being outed for it.
    • But God bless them if they have a humiliation kink...
  • Those who respond can bully, shame, humiliate, make things worse... or they might offer to indulge?

ask a favor meme
because everyone needs a little help sometimes!
  • don't leave your top level blank. instead, start with a favor your character would (or wouldn't, if you need to sprinkle in the meme-forced juice) ask of others. get somebody to help them with their groceries! pretend to be their boyfriend at thanksgiving dinner! fight alongside them in a galactic uprising!
  • others will help out. or not.
  • return some favors.
