Time for something fun!

[untilavalon]

Need a little pick me up? Or just feel like playing something really stupid? It's time for a meme.

The Magical Swap Meme
or the 'oops, you done fucked up' meme

courtesy of Luc*

Directions

1. Post your character with the name/canon in the subject meme. In your comment, put your preferences such as, "I don't want to do prompt #1" or "for the gender swap prompt, [character] will look like [this]" or "for the age swap prompt, my character will be 5 years younger".


2. Tag each other and have fun.

Prompts

• Body Swap: Holy shit. You're looking at yourself like you're looking in a mirror. The only problem is, when you're looking down at your own hands... you're in someone else's body.


• Gender Swap: Well, this is new; you're now no longer in the right body, but it's still yours. Were you always a girl? You sure weren't yesterday. Of course, this is probably another one of the city's tricks; no point in getting all up in arms about it, is there?


• Age Swap: Are you starting to see a pattern here? Now you're younger-- or older-- than you were a little while ago. Who're you going to bug about your height now?


• Canon Swap: Your entire history is different now. Suddenly, you're a homestuck. Or maybe you're an elf. Or perhaps you're not even switching canons with the person you're threading with. What's the damage?


• Power Swap:...Like the one above, but with powers instead of canons.


• Moral Alignment Swap: Suddenly, you're evil as hell. Or maybe you're really good now. Or maybe your moral alignment is "eh /non-commital wiggly hand gesture". I don't make the rules here, bucko.


• Luc, you didn't include this swap I wanted to do!: Well look at you, you have a bigger imagination than I do. What are you waiting for? Swap it. Just swap it. Do it, before it's too late.
  

You now have four minutes to save the world.**

*If it's a bad meme, it wasn't my idea.
**You do not have four minutes to save the world. In fact, there's really no point in worrying about world saving right now.

Some demons can feed on energy...but I don't know if there are any of those that aren't people.

[oncedevil]

Does electricity work?

[Haah, does Alastor know about electricity?]

[superstylishsquid]

Electricity is... *Give him a second to sort through the new language.* Another word for lightning, right? It works for me.

[oncedevil]

[You learn fast.]

Kinda, it's more or less the same thing. Well, see? That'd fix the energy eating issue wouldn't you think?

[superstylishsquid]

Not all demons can eat energy. They'd still want to eat us.

[oncedevil]

Too bad, they're not all as reasonable as you.

[And that's why he'll keep hunting them even after he gets his revenge, but for now it's mostly entirely revenge sorry dude.]

[superstylishsquid]

It's not about reasonable. It's about hungry.

[oncedevil]

I'm sayin' there are ways that don't involve eating everyone you run across.

[superstylishsquid]

If they're desperate, they won't care. Who would risk starving to death so someone they don't even know can live instead?

[oncedevil]

Guess that's the big difference between demons and humans, huh?

[Sorry dude, he won't come to your way of thinking.]

[superstylishsquid]

*His eyes widen slightly, as if he's stunned by what Dante just implied.*

Humans would...do that?

[oncedevil]

More often than not.

[He shrugs like it's no big deal even though it totally is, and his hand subconsciously goes to the amulet around his neck just for a moment. But, he's still hungry, so if you don't mind he's going to nab a bit more of that lion to roast up.]

[superstylishsquid]

*Go ahead, he's just going to sit there chewing in silence for a while. Finally, he looks up with a slightly softer glow to his eyes.*

Is that why you let me go and helped me without asking what I could do for you first?

[oncedevil]

[He smirks a little. Mother wouldn't be happy if he'd killed a child, even a demonic one.]

Now you're getting it.

[superstylishsquid]

*He shifts around like he's uncomfortable, tail settling in one position and then immediately moving to another one.*

Um...

[oncedevil]

[Roast roast. Sword blades sure are handy, but not really very good for this.]

What's up?

[He's focused on his cooking and not the very awkward demon.]

[superstylishsquid]

I'm not sure how to...

*Emotions are weird, especially when they're ones you've never had cause to feel before. How is a demon supposed to know what gratitude feels like?*

[oncedevil]

Don't sweat it.

[Yes they are, and you're getting all mushy on him don't do that. He doesn't know how to deal with that.]

[superstylishsquid]

*He gives a small and awkward but sincere smile.*

Is this enough food?

[oncedevil]

[Aww, look at you. Mom would be proud.]

Yeah, 'course. Still more to eat, unless you're still starving?

[It's a pretty big kill. Dante can't eat that much in one sitting.]

[superstylishsquid]

No, I'm fine for now.

*The thing's as big as either of them, after all.*

[oncedevil]

Well if you can carry what's left maybe we can find somewhere to bunk down for the night. You still gotta work on that shape-shifting thing, yeah?

[And doing it out in the open in the middle of the desert might not be the best, even if it is relatively safe. Compared to the demon world anyway.]

[superstylishsquid]

It's lighter than it was when I carried it here.

[oncedevil]

Great, well let's pack up then.

[Dante gets up and goes about stomping out the fire and kicking dirt on it. Don't want to accidentally start a brush fire or anything. Finding somewhere to bunk down's going to be the hard part.]

[superstylishsquid]

*He stands up and hauls the carcass over his shoulder like it weighs nothing, shuffling his hooves a bit in the dust as he waits for Dante to finish putting out the fire.*
