behold. a rather in-depth and extensive series of yumeship questions. minors DNI.
got tired of looking for ask games that cater to a more mature audience, so I slapped this together :] have others submit asks for you via sending in an emoji and its corresponding number (ex. 🫰3, 🏡6, ⛓️💥1), or feel free to use these questions for personal writing. be sure to reblog to give others a chance to participate!
many of these questions feature multiple parts, so feel free to pick and choose what pieces to answer based on preference! if your ship utilizes an OC rather than a self insert, or if your ship is a polycule, you're more than welcome to change the wording!
