Привет! LiveJournal imports may be slow

Привет and welcome to our new Russian friends from LiveJournal! We are happy to offer you a new home. We will not require identification for you to post or comment. We also do not cooperate with Russian government requests for any information about your account unless they go through a United States court first. (And it hasn't happened in 16 years!)

Importing your journal from ЖЖ may be slow. There are a lot of you, with many posts and comments, and we have to limit how fast we download your information from ЖЖ so they don't block us. Please be patient! We have been watching and fixing errors, and we will go back to doing that after the holiday is over.

I am very sorry that we can't translate the site into Russian or offer support in Russian. We are a much, much smaller company than LiveJournal is, and my high school Russian classes were a very long time ago :) But at least we aren't owned by Sberbank!

С Новым Годом, and welcome home!

Unexpected




unexpected domesticity meme.
you never thought you'd have a home, at least not one you can call completely yours, no strings attached and no one lording above you or controlling you. you may not have even known what a "home" truly is, or thought you wanted one. now, there is a touch of domesticity in your life, no matter what things are like otherwise, because you have a home, though you may not have a house proper.

most importantly, you now have someone to share this new facet of life with - a partner. similar to you or completely different, relationship unspoken or unrealized, heavily romantic or understated, they are slowly but surely becoming someone indispensable to you. you never could have seen this coming. and, of course, with domesticity comes a certain amount of intimacy, perhaps even the ultimate physical intimacy...you may be open to that already or you're working up to it when you'd hardly considered it before.

whether your situation is for the long term as it stands, could end at any moment, or a mere disguise you're using to lay low, you're getting comfortable. how does that make you feel? will you it accept a new lease on life - or will you sabotage yourself before someone else does?

Comment with your character, preferences, what tone you want your thread to take, and whether or not your open to smut.
Reply to others.

Yahooo

THE YAHOO ANSWERS MEME




No question is a stupid one. There may, however, be stupid answers.

● Blank top levels are encouraged in these parts. The re-re-remix here is that instead of the usual subject line, you'll put a question that your character wants to know the answer to (but has been too afraid to ask).
● Other characters will provide the wisdom only crowd-sourced internet answers can provide! Sincerely or trolling, they'll put their two cents in.
● Thread-jacking will happen in this meme. Somebody might jump into to correct an inaccuracy. Maybe a keyboard warrior wants to start a flamewar. Or, you know. You might just be an idiot and everyone everywhere needs informed of that.

Where Everybody Knows Your Name...


⚜ The Interuniverse Inn ⚜

It's your friendly local watering hole. Well... maybe not so local. But on a night like tonight, when the weather is terrible, when you really need a drink, the sympathetic ear of a bartender or a place to wait out the storm, you'll find just the place you need.

The Inn is a place at the crossroads of many different worlds, where people from the past, present, future, and the universe next door can gather. There's a crackling fireplace with couches and chairs nearby where patrons tell stories and jokes and warm their bones. The bar is very long, with tall bar stools lining the counter and more taps than you can count at a glance. And if you have a bit too much -- or meet someone you'd like to get to know better -- just head up the stairs, where the inn has rooms to let.

no guys under 6'


rules for dating*!
*or friendships, or FWBs, or any other kind of relationship

Here I Am : Handsome Jack will remember that.



If they want to be your lover, they have to play by your rules. Them's the breaks. Take it or leave it, buddy.

Of course, that means it's up to you to create said rules. They could be simple, like no seeing other people while you're together, complicated, like no looking at pictures of other people while you're together, or they could be absurd, like no chewing sounds after 2PM.

In any case, these are the deal breakers. 

HOW TO PLAY:

  • Top-level with your character along with their list of rules they expect to be followed in order to be in a relationship with them. What kind of relationship is up to you. (No blank top-levels!)
  • Repliers have to look at this list and decide if they're willing to play by the rules. Maybe they can make a compromise?
  • Prosper!

THE FIGHT MEME

THE (new years) FIGHT MEME



What else needs to be said? Release your inner warrior and partake in some epic (or hilariously bad) battles! Do you use a sword? Are you a martial arts master? Are you a wizard? Can you even fight?

RULES

◘ Post with your character! List your fighting preferences if you'd like (Sparring, Death Battles, Anything Goes, etc.)
◘ Reply to someone else
◘ ROUND 1...
◘ ... FIGHT!

Age Gap

MAY/DECEMBER ROMANCE


A May-December romance is any where there is a larger than average age difference between the partners involved. Sometimes this is met with disapproval, sometimes it is arranged, sometimes it is abuse of power, and other times it just happens and it's no one's fault or doing. This meme focuses on those relationships.

- Post with your character, preferences, and note their ages (or an estimate if no canon age is given).
- Please don't forget to note how much of an age gap you're comfortable with!
- Look around, tag. Have fun! Make up a scenario or make use of the prompts below.

Everyone's Night Market



Welcome to...

The Night Market

Even as the sky gets dark, there's still a lot of lights and life all over this busy street full of people. Vendors and customers from all over come to share and appreciate their creations, taking in this lively atmosphere. Eat, drink, be merry - but watch out for pickpockets and price gouging.

Rules:

1. Comment with your characters. Feel free to specify if they're a vendor/merchant, performer, or someone just here to enjoy the market.
2. What kind of market is it? Street food? Cultural bazar? Magical creatures behind an illusion?
3. Hang out, meet new people, laugh at the bootleg toys, and stuff your faces with good food and drinks.

rain meme


the rain meme

Ah, rain—the precipitation that the whole world has a love/hate affair with. It waters the garden for free and ruins baseball games. It cools you off in the summer and it causes more ice and sleet to appear in the winter. Sometimes it is lovely and falls at a decent pace for a few hours, other times, it blasts the whole eastern seaboard away.

Poems and songs have been written about it, people have danced in it, others have cursed its entire existence, and still more refuse to go out and drive in it.

Now it’s time to roll some dice and see what the weather will have in store for you today.

Attention Walmart Shoppers

The WAL-MART meme




Open 24-hours, in large cities Wal-Mart is a place people show up to shop mindlessly for anything they need. In small towns, it may be literally the only business open after 10pm, making it an unlikely hang-out for locals.

Regardless of where it's located, Wal-Mart always seems to have the strange effect of making time crawl, as the aisles stretch on into infinity, and the tinny in-store music plays on a loop.


RULES:

Post to the meme.
Shop. Anything can be found at Wal-Mart, and in a meme, perhaps that's truer than ever
Get lost in the endless aisles.
Get found in the cafe.
Find a friend. Find an enemy. Find an employee
Have fun.

First

THE ❝FIRST TIME❞ MEME

RULES! 
♥ Leave a comment with your character's name and fandom.
♥ When replying, RNG for a number between 1 and 7. The number you get corresponds with the kind of "first time" sex you're having
♥ Go from there! The sky's the limit.
THE LIST! 
01] Romantic | You waited and waited and waited for the right moment to take this final step with your partner, and it really paid off; neither of you can imagine this night (or day!) to be any better than it is right now. 

02] The Only Time | You know somewhere in your heart that you won't be getting a second chance for this. The relationship is forbidden, or they're moving away, or you're moving away, or something is tearing this relationship apart, and that may be the last thing you want.

03] Set-Up | ... Oh. Well. Someone nudged you and this other person together, the one that you may have loved or hated or been friends with your entire life. It isn't completely by choice, but it doesn't sound like that bad of an idea... Or maybe it does. Who knows?

04] Experience Difference | One of you knows exactly what to do, and the other doesn't! Maybe they're just a natural at this kind of thing... or maybe there's a thing or two they haven't told you yet.

05] Hesitant | One (or both) of you aren't quite sure if you're ready for this next big step... at the same time, you want this to happen, though the thought makes butterflies flutter around in the pit of your stomach.

06] Awkward | It feels like everything that can go wrong does go wrong. Relax? You can't relax! This is s-s-s-s-sex-- oh, boy, there's another mistake.

07] Wildcard | This is the "other" option. Choose any of the above or create your own!

insert Nickleback here


For some reason, your character is compelled (or forced?) to share an old photo of themselves with someone. Because people change.

Sometimes, they change a lot. For the better, for the worse, or for the.... weird.

RULES:

1. Post with your character. Do not leave your comment blank!
2. Write a description (Or outright post a photo of) -your character, sometime in a distant past. No, it doesn't actually have to be an actual highschool photo- and no, it doesn't HAVE to be embarrassing... but bonus points if it is!
3. PLEASE do not embed pictures that are too large or too NSFW! If you're unsure- just link it.
4. React to other people's old photos. Enjoy!
