Innocent Pain - A bit of Guilty Pleasures without the Guilt and the Pleasure

I'm stealing this wholesale from here.

Saying: If it fits, it ships.

The Challenge: Respond to everyone who tags you, no matter how unexpected, crazy, or mismatched the characters are. Play a ship.


RULES
- Comment with your character and preferences. If you want, you can include a one-sentence or so blurb about your character. But blank comments are fine.
- Tag to others.
- RNG for prompts. Prompts cannibalized from random memes.

Sweet
1. Can't deny it - you've tried to run from your feelings for so long and you can't do it anymore. It's time that you show the object of your affection exactly how you feel. Hopefully, you don't lose everything in the process!
2. First time - it's your first time making love together. Is it awkward? Do you go all out or is it spur of the moment?
3. Accidental - you didn't actually mean to confess or kiss. They overheard you or it was an accidental kiss. Maybe you were just really drunk and let it slip!
4. Close as can be - you just want to make love and you've found a spot where it's just you and your partner, however you want it to be.
5. Happily ever after - somehow, you've made it work and you're both happy together, even if it meant you had to run away together.
6. Appreciation - show appreciation for your lover! With words, a look, or whatever your choice way to display affection is!
7. Cuddling - nothing wrong with a day of cuddling...
8. Vacation - you're on a vacation! Wherever you want to be. Road trip, amusement park, Grand Canyon, etc.
9. Family - you're visiting family! Maybe they find out about your relationship, maybe they already know, or however you want to play it out! Maybe you've got news you're starting a family by getting pregnant, adopting, or even getting a new pet.
10. Acceptance - someone who disapproved of your relationship before suddenly approves. How's that feel to you and your lover?
11. Surprise - you've planned a surprise! What is it?
12. Date - first date, second date, hundredth date, etc. What are you doing for it?
13. Reunited → it's been awhile since you've seen each other and nothing can ruin this moment.
14. Other - is there another scene you'd like to play out? Want to combine something? Do it here!

Angst
1. Conflict - you've just had a fight with your lover over your relationship or how you handle it. Can you find it in yourselves to forgive each other?
2. Cheated - your lover has cheated on you and you need to confront them about their reasons why and if you can work it out.
3. Found out - you've been found out by someone close to you and they're less than thrilled with your relationship.
4. Disgust - though they play along with it, they're secretly disgusted by the relationship they have with you and it finally comes out into the light.
5. Guilt - one of you is feeling guilty over your relationship, knowing it can never be truly normal or more than a secret.
6. Other - is there another scene you'd like to play out? Want to combine something? Do it here!

Comfort
1. Soothing touch - what better way to sooth your lover than to make love to them and show them that no matter what other people say, you're not going anywhere.
2. Fight for you - whoever has found out about your relationship is trying to hurt your lover and you're not going to let them.
3. Won't let you go - you need your lover to realize that you won't let them go, no matter what.
4. Back together - you broke up for a bit, but whatever it is between you two, you can't stay apart.
5. Injured - your lover was injured because of your relationship and it's time to patch them up.
6. Other - is there another scene you'd like to play out? Want to combine something? Do it here!

Twisted
1. Forced - you know your partner isn't interested in you like this, but you keep them going along with the relationship no matter what. Coercion, blackmail, whatever it takes.
2. Won't take no - their lips might say no, but you're not listening.
3. Control - you've given them some kind of potion to get your love interest to love you in return and they have to do whatever you say.
4. Recorded - you're not really interested in this forbidden love affair, but you must do it or you'll face some tough consequences.
5. Insult - you're cornered by those who disapprove of your relationship, hearing how filthy you are.
6. Other - is there another scene you'd like to play out? Want to combine something? Do it here!

Sexy
1. Rough - you want it rough and hard tonight. Bites, scratches, bruises, etc.
2. Toys - you want to try some props tonight... toys or fuzzy handcuffs.
3. Bondage - more extreme. You're tied up, used, forced to orgasm, whatever.
4. Make up - make up sex is the best sex.
5. Public - you're feeling a little wild so why not a blowjob under the tablecloth in a restaurant or sex in the car?
6. Interrupted - oh yes, oh yes, oh--who the hell is that watching us?!
7. Other - is there another scene you'd like to play out? Want to combine something? Do it here!

Ending
1. Left alone - you woke up to your lover trying to slip away in the night because of the strain of the relationship. Do you let them go or try and fight for it?
2. Torn apart - others are keeping you apart after they found out about your relationship, giving you only minimal contact. What do you do?
3. Ending fight - the argument has turned dirty and ends with one of you storming out.
4. Parting ways - both of you have decided to part ways. It's just so much easier.
5. Always love you - though you'll always love each other, maybe it's time the relationship goes back to being strictly platonic. It would be easier... or maybe that's just how one of you feels.
6. Other - is there another scene you'd like to play out? Want to combine something? Do it here!

1. Windblume Festival - During the Windblume Festival, the people of Mondstadt offer Windblumes to Barbatos and to those they love and adore. The Windblume flower does not actually exist, but it is said that every individual can simply choose their own personal Windblume, reflecting the freedom of Mondstadt and their Anemo Archon. So what flower do you choose to be your Windblume and who are you giving it to?

2. Windtrace - You and another decide to reenact this ancient Mondstadt tradition by travelling to a location (of your choice). One hides, one hunts. To raise the stakes, whoever loses at the end of the game has to do whatever the winner asks them to do. Any. Thing. At. All.

3. Moraless - You weren't paying attention when leveling your artifacts, and the next thing you realize, you have no Mora left. How are you going to get home? How will you eat? You have to get mora SOMEHOW so what do you do? Do you perform something? Do you offer your services? Do you steal someone's wallet? Well, you better do something cuz you're not going home otherwise.

4. Spiral Abyss - You (and another) are traversing down the Abyss, challenging the various monsters and bosses that each floor brings. For some, it is simply a fun challenge to test how strong you've gotten, finding where your limits are currently sitting. However, for those who are unlucky, the further you descend, you'll find something within you start to change. A raw desire starts burning inside of your chest, like a painful itch that you can't ignore. The desire to get stronger, the desire to prove yourself, the desire to descend further and further . . .

5. Visions - This one is specifically for non-Genshin characters AU'd into Genshin world! At some point, your character had done some sort of deed that has helped determine that your character deserves a vision of their own. No one really knows why someone gets chosen for a vision. Sometimes it's for helping someone or doing a good deed, sometimes it's for experiencing a great hardship, sometimes you just don't know why. You'll find out that someone you know received a vision, too. Perhaps the reason is connected . . . ?

6. Dragonspine - Why are you here? Well, maybe you're trying to farm a domain or solving the 29328th puzzle on Dragonspine, but the most important part is you and your partner/partymate had gotten blocked in thanks to an avalanche. Luckily, you were able to escape into a small little cave before you both got buried, but otherwise, you're stuck for now. You have enough food to last for a while, but the thing is there's only a single heated lamp that you both must somehow share. Huddling up is probably the easiest way, but that's probably for the willing. Hopefully help will come soon...

7. Lantern Rites - On this day of the first full moon of the year, everyone gathers to create their own lanterns to send off into the night sky. Each lantern contains a wish close to a person's heart. You and another decided to make your lanterns together, but you cannot help but wonder what the other person is wishing for. Actually, what are you going to even wish for?

8. Choose your own quest! - There are many fun things to do in the Genshin world! Fight monsters, complete quests, protect balloons, eat Paimon, etc. Choose your own prompt to play with! This is just an open AU world of Genshin for everyone to play in!

(Gentle Gestures)

Sometimes, it's the softer side of affection that means more than anything else. Small things that only matter so much more just because you're slowly falling in love. Perhaps you don't even know it yet. However, that gentle feeling always seem to linger.

There will be a few prompts with some extra suggestions to pick from! Feel free to RNG or pick if you want. You don't have to follow the extra suggestions in the prompts obviously. Just consider it some inspiration in case you can't think of any other ideas!

01. Rain. Offering an umbrella to someone. Sharing an umbrella. Helping someone avoid a deep puddle. Stuck watching the rain together.
02. Flowers. Gardens. Perhaps picking a flower for someone. The meaning of flowers. A gift.
03. Letters. Perhaps it's a long-distance penpal. Sharing notes in class. A small, secret note of inspiration. A mystery message left on a desk.
04. Phones. Texting. Phonecalls. Maybe it's late at night when the message finally shows up. Or maybe you're trying to get the courage to send a message yourself.
05. Walks. Walking home together. A stroll through a park. Along a beach, near the waves. The sights and sounds when you're together.
06. Injured. First-aid. Carrying an injured person on your back. Warm and cool touches. Checking temperature. Staying by your side.

08. Music. Trying to find out whose voice that is. Listening to them play a guitar. Sharing headphones. A song that is dedicated to you.
09. Small touches. Brushing someone's hair out of their face. Hand holding. Sleeve tugs. Leaning against a shoulder. Indirect kisses. Smiles.
10. Chores. Doing taxes. Bills. Cleaning up messes together. Sharing a burden is easier than alone. (Thanks, Marie).
11. Photos. Taking a picture of someone. Selfies. Photobooths. Looking over old photo albums. Memories that can't be forgotten.
12. Winter. Playing in the snow. Watching snow together. Staying near the fireplace. Drinking hot cocoa. Finding warmth.
13. Sky. Watching fireworks. Stargazing. Looking at the clouds, imagining the shapes they make.
14. Food. Sharing snacks together. Remembering their favorites. Meeting at a cafe.
15. ANYTHING ELSE. There are so many things you can consider! Accidental handtouching while picking up scattered papers! Handing a balloon to someone. Stuffed animals. Carrying things together. Train and bus rides! It's the small stuff! It's all great!

This is open to anyone, feel free to share with your friends if you wanna play. Toplevel, tag around, we all secretly want schmoopy goopy.

This is Celi's excuse to play out shitty reincarnation tropes cuz I am that person. I just want to play terrible ships and this is my reason to play out terrible ships.

Everyone knows the feeling of when you see someone and you know you've seen them before. Isn't that a part of déjà vu? But what if the connection you have with that person goes beyond the superficial recognition of familiarity? Perhaps you were connected once...in the most intimate of ways. Some religions and philosophies believe in reincarnation of souls, and it's said that souls could be reincarnated together - once again to follow out the same path they did before.

Or maybe not. Maybe it could be a second chance for fixing things that went wrong before, like the a tragedy or circumstances keeping you apart. But can you take that chance? Do you even want to?

♥ Comment with a character. Celi wants to play all of the terrible guilty pleasure ships so if you have a preference tell me asap. You are also free to play with your friends, idc!!! Share with your pals! Play together!
♥ You can decide on whether your character is aware of this reincarnated lifestyle, semi-aware, not aware at all or not. Maybe only one knows and the other doesn't! Maybe neither knows!
♥ You are also free to choose previous lifetime settings and play those out instead or include them, whatever (ie medieval, wartime, pre-arranged marriages, early death, etc etc).
♥ You are certainly free to choose your own prompt if you got one, but I thought I'd list a few as ideas:

01. (Not So) First Meeting: You could swear you've seen this person before...but where?
02. Need to Be Near You: You don't know why, but you have to be close to this person, to protect them, to love them.
03. Memories: You're having memories of your past life and it's freaking you out.
04. The Reveal: Somehow, the truth is revealed to you about who you used to be and what you life was like with this person.
05. But I'm Taken: Unfortunately, you've already moved on to someone else who doesn't fit into the picture of your past.
06. New and Old: One of you is an old soul who has gone through many lifetimes (and perhaps had already fallen in love) but a person with a bright new soul has sparked something within you that you've forgotten long ago . . .
07. An Honest Mistake: You have gone through so many reincarnations just for each other, but you guys keep fucking it up. Doesn't mean you won't keep trying to make it work.
08. Alternate Timelines: In another timeline, it couldn't work. But somehow one event changed (perhaps you were aware that you can change events) and you're trying again to make it work.
09. You only live once: Your character is actually immortal so your soul is literally connected to the body and cannot reincarnate. But the person you love reincarnates like every other person.
10. One Soul, Two Bodies: Apparently, you are not the only one with your soul (perhaps time shenanigans happened). This is probably problematic for whatever reason.
11. Canon is a Past Life: Whatever happened in a character's canon was actually a past life. Perhaps CR within a game is actually a past life. This is an excuse to use pre-established CR as a past life.
