if you see a post by a mutual that you enjoy, please like it. please comment on it. i’ve seen people feeling lonely or separated due to lack of engagement both writing-wise and with general posts.

it’s not shameful. it’s not embarrassing. it’s not going to make folks dislike you. if anything, you’ll make them happy! just please, like your mutual’s posts. give feedback. make comments. let’s make the rpc feel less lonely!

with the help of some very talented and amazing friends, i present to you an unexpected, very spontaneous meme list based on the beautiful art of cupping someone's face! there's a mix of romantic and platonic here, and even a few that defy the boundaries of normal relationship dynamics! i hope you enjoy! as always; DO NOT ADD TO THIS LIST NOR CLAIM IT AS YOUR OWN!

[KISS]: sender cups the receivers face in their hands before drawing them closer for a kiss.

[CHECK]: after an unexpectedly violent situation, sender frantically rushes to check if the receiver is okay, cupping their face to look closer.

[CLEAN]: sender affectionately wipes a smudge of sauce from the corner of the receiver's mouth, cupping their face in the process.

[MAKE-UP]: while applying make-up on the receiver's face, the sender cups their face in order to keep them still.

[PRIDE]: after the receiver succeeds in a remarkable achievement, the sender cups their face and tilts their foreheads together to express how proud they are of them.

[WHISPER]: in order to have a private, hushed conversation with the receiver, the sender cups their face and draws them close to make sure they can be heard.

[GROUND]: during a moment of intense emotional stress, the sender gently takes the receiver's face in their hands to ground them until they're calmer again.

[WONDER]: unable to comprehend how incredible the receiver is, the sender decides to simply cup their face in their hands and marvel at them instead.

[BETRAYAL]: trying to keep the receiver calm before the big reveal, the sender cups their face gently to keep them steady, and then reveals that they're the villain.

[INJURY]: after having been badly wounded themselves, the sender tries to reassure the frantic receiver by cupping their face and comforting them.

[RAMSAY]: after the receiver commits a culinary crime, the sender presses two slices of bread against either side of their face, cupping their face to hold the bread in place, and calls them an idiot sandwich.

[grewaren]

She's got a perfect picture painted, and he knows it. He's been around too many people that do the same not to notice it, and if he weren't too lazy, he'd prod at her. Poke the bear. Turn on the shock collar. “ Are you fuckin' dumb or something? What do you mean what would I know about that? ” An eyebrow quirks up, icy blues squint as he stares across at her. They're similar, even if he doesn't want to admit it and she doesn't want to either — The Hind and The Greywaren. Keep people at a distance to protect them from something you were born with, put up a frigid exterior. Keep them uninvolved. “ You're not the only one who has appearances to maintain. ”

[literare-archive]

if she could block out and deceive the asteri, if she could fool pollux all these years : she find it hard to believe someone else might accidently peak beneath the mask. ❝   are you ?   ❞      shoot the question right back at him while relaxing back into her chair. brow quirk ever so little as she watch him, and perhaps she can't stop the amused little smirk forming. most would run the other way, even when she was alone. well, right now, mostly alone anyways. one of the dreadwolves are probably close by. perhaps not happy that she, a deershifter leads them, but there are some perks with her title. not many, but . . . she manage. and not quite what she meant by it. truly, she doubt he would know much about her at all. at least beyond the bloody trail of a reputation she has made. ❝   mmm, and what ever interest would i have of you.   ❞

[burygods]

it's like will's main purpose in life is to make people laugh or smile. it's what he does. even if it's harder for him to do so these days ... not without a little hit to spur him on. so when his answer gets a chuckle and a little roll of her eyes, he couldn't help but grin. " you've had the pleasure of all this, " will gestures up and down his body, a little wriggle of his hips and what lay under the blankets. " maybe i want to experience it too. " will didn't know if he was serious or not, he just wanted another laugh out of her.

he watches her lean back, to which he follows --- leaning against the headboard, arm behind his head as he lets his phone fall to his lower abdomen. " a little sexy number for moi? " will gives her a lazy grin.

[literare-archive]

rare she stays longer than she has to without making it weird, quick to get cleaned up and dressed before going back to her apartment. soak in a bath, perhaps indulge in a glass of wine and a face mask. not crack jokes in bed like it's the most natural thing in the world. there's a snort of a laugh escaping her, head thudding back against the headboard and gaze settle on the ceiling for a moment. doesn't let the smile drop tho, still very much there.     ❝   well, to be honest, it's a very great experience, can't exactly blame you.   ❞       slight shrug of shoulder while head loll to the side looking over at him. is his ego going to suffocate the both of them in this room ? probably. no point in lying right now however.

there's a soft hum, gaze drift to the flimsy fabric currently laying in a heap on the floor, tongue click against roof of her mouth. do perhaps have a weakness for lingerie. and dresses. and shoes. and jewelry. like to splurge, when the opportunity was there. ❝   why, do you want to go lingerie shopping with me, will ?   ❞ smile tug at the corner of lips while looking up at him, brow raise ever so little.

it's so awful when a patient is cleared from their illness, they're thriving on their own, and then half a year later they need home care again because they had a set back

[epigrapheds]

unable to contain the grin that tugs at the corner of his lips,     ❝ i love you too little stalker, ❞ playfully winking at her. slight roll of his shoulders as fingers curl into his shirt.     ❝ me too, ❞ excited for whatever she cooks up for the two of them too. home cooked meals are definitely an easy route to his heart.     ❝ greedy now, ❞ he playfully tsks, gladly give her both - in fact he would likely give her anything she asks no matter how ridiculous her demand may be.

[literare-archive]

love seeing him like this, happy. knowing she is the reason for that grin on his face. playfull roll of eyes when he call her little stalker, keeping her grip on his shirt, keeping herself close to him. biased opinion perhaps, but find him quite stalker worthy these days despite the comflicting time scheduls. this however, she can't get tired of. making plans, knowing he's coming over later tonight. feels good. creating this little routine, just the two of them.     ❝   so ?   ❞      head tips back, peering up at him, bottom lip puckered out in a small pout to keep the smile off features. ❝   it's not exactly new.   ❞ not when it came to him at least.

[burygods]

will wasn't a fan of those words of hers, didn't like them whatsoever. and maybe he was getting a little frustrated with her. he's in her cabin, closes the door with a slam behind him. " for fuck sake, alex. " will exclaims out a little, running a hand down his face. " will you listen to me for once? " it wasn't so much a question, more an order of sorts --- not that he'd ever order her to do anything, but this was getting on his nerves.

green eyes keep on her, seeing her wanting to retract but sticking her ground. strong girl. " i don't want emory scott. " will says slowly, lowly, making sure she hears every single word coming from his mouth. " i don't love emory scott. " will wasn't a fan of repeating himself, but it appears he's going to have to with this one. " i want you. i love you. " not how he wanted to tell her, but beggars can't be choosers. " and don't give me that, you have a funny way of showing it, bullshit. this isn't some fairytale. but i want you. "

[literare-archive]

hands clench tightly as the door slam shut behind him, head trying to wrap around all of this. and failing, mostly. not going to lie, this wasn't how she saw the trip back to civilization go. a shower. a fresh set of clothes. maybe spar with banks or rika. both, preferably, so she didn't have to think. instead there is this, there is him, in her room and he's not making any sense. lips parting for some answer, but quickly press shut when he ask her ? demands her ? to listen. arms tighten and nose crinkle, slight grimace stretch across features.    

already told her that, but still waiting for the gotcha moment. hell, for all she knows, maybe he found some higher power love bullshit in that place. felt very cult like, not too surprised, considering aydin was there. i want you. i love you. let it sink in for a few moments, trying to at least. ❝   only because i already said that.   ❞      a low mutter to herself. the you have a funny way of showing it part, that is. like it can buy her some time. hands fall to her sides after a few seconds, shoulders slump ever so little while watching him closely. ❝   you love me ?   ❞      okay maybe she is being slow, but it's not exactly every day someone declare their love to her. or chose her.
