hello we need a meme
I know we don't really do memes but while we're stuck on this spaceship, it felt like we needed something to channel all of the chatting energy into that isn't AAAH SPACE. So let's be stuck together somewhere else! I am stealing this meme in its entirety. You can either adapt prompts to fit better to the game, or talk amongst yourselves, I'm not your dad.
Two whole people did not discourage me from doing this, so I assume everyone is going to be very enthusiastic.
THEKINDASTUCKMEME
Well, at least it's not glue.
RULES:
o1. Put down your character with your preferences about sticking to game canon, or some notes about their homeworld if you would rather make this work that way, or just how you're feeling today so we can all support you.
o2. Those replying can pick / rng / ask Snape on the astral plane to choose one of the prompts below.
o3. You know what they say: birds of a feather get stuck in questionably legal situations together!
Hope you enjoy your enforced quality time, when you're both stuck -
o1. in traffic, after an atrocious argument.
o2. distracting this person, while your partner in comedy/crime organizes their surprise party, or slashes their car tyres.
o3. defending the base for the next vicious 42 min, until your cavalry to get here. Ladies, gentlemen: good luck.
o4. on a raft, idly drifting the way of the nearest deserted island, a surely cute shark in tow.
o5. in an air vent, after fruitlessly stalking this person, whom you thought to be a serial killer. They don't make friendly neighbours like they used to.
o6. trapped in a codependent relationship with your bed / pet / really domestic hobby, from which this person hopes to break you by way ofalcohol a social intervention.
o7. in a waiting room, while you're hanging around for the results for a highly embarrassing disease test, and would really rather not run into anyone you kno - ...God damn it.
o8. trying to safely navigate through a department store, after carelessly forgetting you were out on your measly errand during Black Friday / the year's biggest one-day sale.
o9. standing guard in front of a bedroom with this nigh-stranger, so your Romeo-Juliet-like friends can finally get it on in behind closed doors, thematic noises included. Get the small talk going.
10. with your hair in one of their zippers. You pick which. Everyone else just points and laughs.
11. delivering some pretty terrible news to them.
12. with your hand in their mailbox, just as they're coming out of their house, or apartment.
13. doing the dishes, when you both forgot your wallets and can't foot the bill.
14. playing moral support for your friend, who's stuck in a magician's box, while said magician goes off to look for the key. And coffee. And dinner.
15. reading a manual on how to defuse a bomb, or a very sensitive alarm system. Tick-tack. No rush.
16. waiting for the movie reels to get changed over from an accidental porn showing, courtesy of teenagers in charge of the screening room. You're also out of popcorn.
17. under the only stone building around for miles in the middle of an acidic rain. And then you wonder whether pollution's really on the rise.
18. on the roof, after the ladder's snapped in half. Your neighbour's particularly irritable cat might also be out on the prowl.
19. in a bdsm swing. Look, no one's judging.
20. baby-sitting, pet-sitting, or car-sitting. Yes, that new Ferrari needs day and night surveillance.
21. in a lake, because this person caught you skinny-dipping and won't. Go. Away.
22. on the phone for an important interview / business conversation, while this person tries to distract you.
23. waiting to be ransomed, while in the actually quite loving care of especially incompetent criminals.
24. with your and this person's thumbs engaged in a dysfunctional Chinese finger trap.
25. waiting for them to make the Important Announcement they've been hinting at all week, while they taunt and tease you with it.

"The collar is still experimental," Tony explained. "Not all of our adaptations are as advanced as yours. Someone has to monitor him to ensure there aren't any side effects. Listen, I'm busy, and everything he does is weird to me, so..."
Chewing on his own leg did not stop Dr. Shapiro's voice from coming clearly through the collar, "I'm not the weird one in the room."
"Like that. What's that about? Do all cats do that?" Tony said, both hands splayed at this display.
no subject
"It's a cat, and I'm sure that if all cats could talk, that would classify as typical cattitude. That said, I've never owned one, only watch the strays that wander about here and there, and they either love you or ignore you or flip-flop between them at their best convenience."
no subject
So maybe Cayde wasn't that necessary, but Tony really didn't want to break one of his chief scientists. "You had a chicken," Tony said, like this was an obvious highlight of Cayde's petsitting resume and it connected seamlessly to knowing what to do with a cat. Dr. Shapiro, meanwhile, watched the Exo approach curiously, then sat up on its hind legs expectantly to be picked up, sniffing for any hint of chicken that he could maybe pounce on.
no subject
"And therefore I know how to get along with all animals, right. I mean, if that were true, I wouldn't complain," he said. He hesitated to pick the cat up right away, the fact that said cat spoke giving him second thoughts about how exactly you treated a sentient cat. In the end he stuck with his earlier statements. Cats gonna cat. All right, so he didn't necessarily say that, but it pretty much came out to that in a nutshell.
"Sorry doc, no chicken here," he said as he gently scooped the cat up.
no subject
"Seems that way so far. Two for two," Tony pointed out, chancing closer to lean up on his toes and meet Dr. Shapiro's nose over Cayde's shoulder. "Maybe you were a crazy cat lady and forgot about it. This whole military gunslinger thing is just Six."
no subject
Since Dr. Shapiro had made no objections to being held, Cayde reached up to give the cat a scratch between the ears. "So how long are you pawning off your cat on me?" He let his gaze shift from Tony to the furry bundle. "What's his excuse, kitty? Do you know? Actual work or hot date?"
no subject
"The only dates he has are with dragons," Dr. Shapiro betrayed, making Tony glare at him while her purred happily. "If we're lucky, we'll see one today, and I will show you how to blow its tail off."
no subject
The Dr. Shapiro's invitation was much more appealing, as was told by the grin that quickly reappeared on Cayde's face. "Oh, we are going to get along just fine, I think."
