Call out one of the characters from my muselist with a starter, a prompt, a general 'hey can we do something with these characters' comment, a smoke signal, etc., and I'll get back to you with some kind of RP thread!

Old CR, new CR, assumed CR, canonmates, AU, crossover, whatever, it's all good.

The Dragon's Bride

Flames, then ash. Your village will be left with little else should the dragon that plagues the countryside not get his demanded sacrifice...if you're lucky. Your good fortune turns south, the bones of your neighbors (or whatever else remains of them) litter a new charred graveyard that was once a town. So, the necessary offers must be made.

At least that's the hope. The alternative would be too awful to contemplate.

In a last-ditch effort to save those you love — or against your will, as these things tend to go with forcibly created martyrs — you have been hoisted onto the pyre, waiting for the dragon to fly off with you. What terrors race through your mind as your doom impends?

How you'll end up in a beast's belly, no doubt. Except, you must consider this: there are worst fates than being a dragon's next meal. A monster that covets you as its treasure...a new type of danger unfurls its wings. You've become a dragon's bride.

But could such an infernal creature ever learn to know honest, unselfish affection? Is it possible to be more than a "spouse?" A mere treasure?

Perhaps, you could learn to be a dragon's love.

HOW TO PLAY
✗ Comment with your character, roles ("dragon" or "bride") prefs, etc.
✗ Y'all know how this goes. Approach "dragon" as a stand-in. The monster mash could be elves, orcs, goblins, werewolves, demons, dwarves, fey, purple people eaters, what have you. Of course, actual dragon and shifters folks are welcome, too! And don't think that you have to make your boring human a boring ol' human. Consider this the monster/supernatural being/cryptid/creature AU of your dreams!
✗ Second verse, same as the first, "bride" registers as gender-neutral 'round these parts. That word choice just sounds a touch more poetic.
✗ Reply to others.

[Introducing Atsushi and Kyouka to the library had been, in some ways, surprisingly easy.

Chuuya had disappeared for a few months, so it wasn't all that strange that he'd come back with two more people in tow - and given that they were all dead authors anyway, explaining that there was a parallel world where they weren't dead authors hadn't been that difficult. Miss Librarian had accepted it, anyway, and Miss Librarian's word was law.

Things kind of go that way when she's literally the only reason any of them are alive.

Chuuya'd introduced Atsushi and Kyouka to the chief librarian, a boisterous man who'd welcomed them to the library and told them they could stay as long as they liked. Then to the talking cat, who'd been quieter, but told them that there were library positions they could fill - normal positions, like filing books. They could live peaceful lives, if they wanted.

Miss Librarian took care of explaining things to the other authors, and the first writer who approached Atsushi when he had a moment to himself was...]

Ah, excuse me. You're... Atsushi-kun?

[...a nervous-looking young man with a boa made of white tiger fur.]

[Yokohama's library is home to the effort to restore literature, but besides that, it functions as a normal library. While literature is disappearing, there are so many books in the world that a library can still provide a decent number of books for loan, and nonfiction seems to have been spared entirely.

While not delving into tainted books, Atsushi likes to wander around the library. It's nice to see libraries are still an important resource in this day and age, and won't be disappearing any time soon.

He's far too nervous to approach normal people, of course, but there are exceptions to every rule.]

Ah - sir? Y-you're not allowed to eat in the library.

[And one of those exceptions is what if he messes up the books?! That's enough for even Atsushi to swallow his shyness and speak to a stranger.]
