i am sure i’m forgetting some concepts, so please reblog / comment with what you always script to help our fellow fantasy shifters!
⊹ minorities are majorly excluded in most of the popular fantasy medias. in my asoiaf realities i always make it a point to script that the whole realm isn’t just white people. it is unrealistic ( ironic, ik bc it’s fantasy but still ) for people to come about over evolution && only be white.
⊹ racism. nonexistent. idc. you might be frowned at for being half giant somewhere, but nowhere will you be discriminated against for the color of your skin.
⊹ escaping the long lines of incest! i always always script a completely new house ( family lineage ) separate from the families i plan to be romantically involved with. ie. my maegors reign reality i have no blood connection to the targaryens or jason’s house && my kings in the north reality takes place long before the targaryens ( a valyrian house ) reaches westeros; i am a stark while jason is from valyria, therefore we have absolutely no familial connection. it ain’t that hard, chat.
⊹ love is love, no matter gender. i really don’t enjoy the homophobia tropes often littered in the fantasy genre. i understand it is based on the medieval era but i still don’t care for it. so i script that the gender of those who love each other isn’t scandalous. but for drama && angst purposes i script that status is what the older generations look to for a ‘ good ‘ marriage. ie. a knight shouldn’t marry a princess.
⊹ blood right to the crown. when debating the rightful heir to the throne it is always the child the previous monarch / matriarch believes would run the kingdom the best. if they are not able to decide, the crown will fall to the firstborn. this rule keeps women from being skipped in the line of succession.
⊹ misogyny. men are not set above women in any shape or form. there is no underlying disdain towards them or anyone who is not a man.
a shifting ask game ♱ interlinked and wrapped in lace
&. everyone is a combination of every person they have ever met. everywhere you turn humanity is interlinked. here on shiftblr our connections transcend this reality — a celebration for reaching 1k.
ask game : these questions are to help you connect with your desired realities. it does not matter the audience.
tied ribbons : are you the type of person to retie a piece of ribbon until it's perfect or do you tie it once and find the beauty in that?
reflective glass : what traits have you adapted from the people around you? has anyone stolen your quirks?
red string theory : regardless of space, time, and reality, who is the one person you are destined to find? give us a few examples of how you find each other across the multiverse.
delicate devotion : whose presence gives you the serenity of a hidden waterfall? the person that you have that unspoken understanding of each other with.
lingerie drawer : what are the parts of your desired reality you want to share but also want to keep hidden? are you scared how people will react to it? or is the secrecy straightly for privacy reasons?
cells interlinked : what's it like to hold the hand of someone you love and you know loves you just as hard? how do you show your love for them?
dial tone, click : every time you are in the midst of some shenanigans who do you call first? can you anticipate their response by now?
ruffled feathers : does your best friend have a certain habit that pisses you off? is it done purposefully or a mindless act?

0.8K CELEBRATION ᰋ INFLUENCER REALITY IDEAS concepts, specifics, and tropes you could use for your very own influencer reality.
ও. a super big and sparkly thank you to @withluvvenus for helping me with this post!! my first collab... kinda nervous 😛
TRUE!INFLUENCER the true definition of an influencer. could be new york city, los angeles, miami, london or even paris, but you know every inch of that place. you wake up to new pr pages full of almost too many free products.
MEET CUTE IDEAS
i. the classic meeting at an influencer party. you were supposed to be networking, trying to navigate the new and familiar faces only to be starstruck by seeing your celebrity crush walk through the door. and even worse? they know exactly who you are.
ii. your reputation is perfect online, or maybe it's not. your s/o's image is the complete opposite of yours. both of your pr teams contact the other's to sort out a deal. there isn't much of a conversation between the two influencers who will be fake dating for who knows how long the teams chose, just soft launches that lead to hands being held in obvious photos and paparazzi images.
ANIMAL!INFLUENCER why only work at an animal rescue when you could share all the random facts you have stored up too? helping the adorable ( & non ) beings while spreading the message of environmental preservation is truly a win-win.
MEET CUTE IDEAS
i. your animal rescue always needs volunteers! you need as many hands as you can get to take care of all the precious inhabitants. so when the rescue got a new group of them you didn't think much of it it. until you were asked to show the most beautiful person you've ever seen how to trick the resident wolfdog into taking his worm medicine...
BEAUTY!INFLUENCER you found the perfect mascara. the perfect cleanser. the perfect blush. anyone who is anyone knows your name. brands are begging for your stamp of approval on their products. be careful with your power... or don't, we still love you!
MEET CUTE IDEAS
i. your page is everything beauty related? your s/o? they're a fan but a big makeup artist for famous people. famous, underlined, bolded. but they know of you. they are always using your tips and tricks, sometimes even duetting your tiktoks and commenting on the base of the certain foundation used paired with the concealer or something else. they're trying to get your attention. will you give it to them?
ii. you're working with yet another brand. you thought the photoshoot would be a little boring with the constant posing and retaking the same picture a hundred times. but hey, at least the person behind the camera is cute. wait. did they just ask for your personal number instead of your managers? what could they want that for?
FASHION!INFLUENCER at first we all followed for your amazing use of floral pattern ( we still have no clue how you made it look so good ), but we stayed to see you strutting the runways. we definitely still try to gatekeep you, we were here first!
MEET CUTE IDEAS
i. an up and coming fashion designer wants you to model for them! you scroll through their catalog and don't know if the designs are really your thing. you told your manager to decline the offer. a few months later the designer blows up on their own. a mixture of jealousy and resentment makes you check them out. since when were they so hot?
FOOD CRITIC!INFLUENCER does getting to taste the many different flavors and dishes from all around the globe sound good to you? what if you could get them for free too? just become your city's biggest food blogger!
MEET CUTE IDEAS
i. you're the food critic. your s/o is the owner of a famous restaurant. you're assigned to their restaurant, there's some nerves because they're famous . . . and the fact that you may have developed a crush on them.
SPORTS CONNOISSEUR!INFLUENCER the one who follows their favorite sport religiously. the go-to person for all the details and history on the topic. when someone thinks a certain team their first thought isn't the mascot, it's you.
MEET CUTE IDEAS
i. you're a sports influencer, they're a big name in a sport you fancy. first time you two meet is at one of their games, you're invited out where the players are usually to interview the players. your s/o is interviewed by you. but this isn't the first time you two have met, has it?
ii. in the off season of your s/o's sport they go to a different sports game. somehow you're seated next to each other as complete strangers. but the kiss cam thinks otherwise.
TRAVEL!INFLUENCER take that trip to milan. show us every little corner you found. all the top museums and fancy restaurants. we want your outfits of the day. we want to live vicariously through you. maybe take us to japan next!
MEET CUTE IDEAS
i. on the plane to your next big trip and you believe you've been blessed with an empty seat next to you. yet at the very last second you hear the excuse mes and shuffling of feet. you look up to see them. suddenly you don't mind sitting next to a stranger if that stranger is them.
i have come across the same conversation in multiple friendships of mine: “ who is the moon && who is the sun? “ naturally, when a duo forms there is a desire to see yourselves in other duos. it could be two characters in your favorite show or two cast members with inside jokes or two cats in a random tiktok. whatever it may be, seeing yourself in a world outside of your own is utterly validating. so it only makes sense that the sun && moon have become a classic comparison.
now i have never seen myself as the sun. yet every single time i am involved in this conversation, i end up being classed as such. sun-like characteristics to me are energetic, charismatic, bright, and warm. when i look at the people i love most in this world, they fall into these these adjectives. they bring my warmth with their presence. they brighten my life. they are charming with an energy only they can produce.
the people i love are my sun, therefore i am the moon. yet no one has ever let me be the moon. for them i am the sun.
i’m not quite sure why i am making this post but the thought hasn’t left my mind for a few days so you must be subjected to it as well.
THIS LITTLE LIFE ᰋ shifting ask game focused on your parallel selves in your desired realities.
﹙ reblog for asks & send emojis to ask ﹚
🧺 : SOFT LAUNDRY . . . what is your comfort item? a necklace you always wear? the soft blanket at the end of your bed? a certain drink you pick wherever you go?
🧸 : CHILDHOOD TEDDY BEAR . . . what childhood memory / memories are permanently etched into your brain? going to your first concert? wining a giant teddy bear at a carnival? eating crayons in kindergarten with your future best friend?
🍓 : SAPPY STRAWBERRY . . . what makes you sappy and all nostalgic? listening to a song you once played one too many times? a movie about the underdog saving the day? seeing older couples walking down the street?
🌷 : TALL TALE TULIP . . . what is something someone told you as a child that you still partially believe? are you able to have your feet uncovered in bed without thinking a under-the-bed-demon will drag you under? do you let your friends "split the pole"?
🎀 : CLASSIC BOW . . . what do you love about life? do you love hearing the morning birds signing to you as you sit on the porch? do you enjoy partying too much and not remembering it in the morning? or maybe just hanging out with the people you love?
🩰 : DYNAMIC DANCE . . . who is the one person that is the complete opposite of you? are you two friends? why are they the complete opposite of you? what mannerisms do they have that conflict with yours?
💌 : LOVE LETTER . . . what random things do your friends associate with you? a fictional character you resemble? the scent you always wear? a dumb phrase you made up?
🐚 : QUICK SHELL . . . okay, just a quick fire of a few questions. favorite inside joke? what food combination do you love but other people think is strange? how do you feel about surprises? do you live a more analytical or creative lifestyle? if you had to describe yourself in three words, what would they be?
౨ৎ : the under-the-bed-demon might be me projecting.. sorry
