The Relentlessly Positive Meme

The meme of happy endings and lights in dark places! Send a symbol for a starter!

🌼 - Our muses have survived a lot of hard things, but they’re finally safe. They make plans to meet up to do some soft self-care type activities, like going on a picnic.

🐕 - One muse helps the other muse with looking for a beloved escaped pet. Not only do they bring the pet home safely, they also realize how much they can depend on each other along the way.

⛰️ - Muse A really cares about doing the right thing, but they’re in danger of becoming jaded and bitter. Then they meet Muse B, whose life was changed by something they did (they had no idea!).

🏠 - One muse is visiting the other and ends up stuck there overnight because of a weather event such as heavy snow. They end up creating a sleepover atmosphere, or something more romantic.

🛸 - Our muses are... abducted by aliens?? That’s super rude tbh. They overpower the aliens and take over the ship, and now it’s a space adventure.

🐍 - One muse tells a lie that completely spirals out of control, but in kind of hilarious ways. The other muse may or may not be in on it. When the truth finally comes out, everyone is going to be laughing.

🗨️ - Muse A is someone who teases people to be friendly. Muse B is someone who’s kind to people to be friendly. They become close friends or romantic partners, but they’re such different people that they come up with some pretty wildly inaccurate versions of each other along the way.

⚽ - Our muses want to play with a soccer ball (or chess pieces, or a pool table, etc. etc.), but they don’t know the rules...so they invent a new game.

🥳 - Muse A has just experienced a crushing failure, perhaps in their career. They’re not taking it well at all, and Muse B doesn’t know how to help... so they throw Muse A a surprise party! Hooray failure! It’s how we learn!

🖋️ - Our muses have a long car ride/plane ride/etc., and they pass the time by coming up with a collaborative story (rp inception??). It starts out as something silly, like superheroes with ridiculous powers, but maybe something ‘real’ creeps in as the narrative evolves.

"I will also add that your Enneagram makes a HUGE difference in how you write characters, which ones you are drawn to, and the themes within your own stories." would you mind elaborating a bit?

I don't know for sure authors that focus on each, but I'll throw out suggestions where I can.

Head types: fear / loyalty / strategy

5: dark, twisted, morbid, lack of safety, voyeuristic, intellectual themes, something is coming for you (Hitchcock or Stephen King)

6: family, loyalty, betrayal, uncertainty, bonding together to fight a common goal, external threats coming for you (Stranger Things)

7: fun-loving, freedom, need to avoid negativity, always come out of things smiling, optimism, life is good, live it to the fullest (Liz Gilbert, Rob Bell)

Heart types: relationships / emotions / self-image / others-image

2: love, romance, empathy, kindness, optimism, not focusing on too much darkness, sensual, relationships, connections

3: rags to riches, achievement, success, ambition, climbing the ladder, hollowness, trying to find what truly matters in life (Great Gatsby, The Greatest Showman)

4: alienation, misunderstood genius, unwanted, freak, weirdo, not like anybody else, withdrawn, me vs. the normies (Tim Burton)

Gut types: peace / right and wrong / action / against the world

1: good/evil, right/wrong, moral good, standing up for something, journey of self, self-improvement (To Kill a Mockingbird)

8: strength, overcoming, assertion of self, me against the world, conquerors, conflict, rawness of reality/sensuality

9: finding peace, the inner struggle, self-discovery, overcoming, finding one's place in the world (they may downplay conflict, have peaceful narratives, and if feelers, hate writing straight-up villains).

The Defrosting the Refrigerator Meme: What Looks Good?

This meme works a little differently! It’s a way to advertise to your mutuals what you’re interested in writing about, to start or help along plotting conversations. How it works:

Consider the situations listed. When you reblog the meme, add a symbol in the tags for each situation that you're especially in the mood to write. What is your creativity “hungry” for? Don’t worry about what you expect others to want to write, just put what you want and let people surprise you! Mutuals can then reblog the meme for themselves if they want, to communicate what situations they’re in the mood to write, and you can all go from there. You can also use this as a list of drabble prompts for you to select for yourself based on what you’re in the mood for.

🍞 - My muse is in a safe and cozy place

🧇 - My muse is noticed and desired romantically

🍩 - My muse notices and desires another muse romantically

🍔 - My muse is really scared

🥪 - Another muse accepts something about my muse that my muse is insecure about

RP Plots || The Fear of Corruption

Send in a symbol for a plot based on the following!

🌲 Muse A and Muse B have known each other for a long time. Muse A is realizing that they don’t like the person Muse B has become over the years, and they’ve been meaning to call off the friendship. Before they get the chance, the two find themselves stranded in an isolated location (a forest, an island, out at sea, etc.). Will they talk it out as they try to survive? Is Muse A in danger? Does Muse B kind of have a point?

🥕 A corrupt organization offered Muse A a large reward for compromising their values. Muse A refused. That should have been the end of it, but Muse A has just found out that someone important to them, Muse B, has accepted the deal that was offered to A. Why did Muse B do it? What happens now? Can they still be friends?

🕯️ Muse A wants to be a moral person in theory, but they’re certain that it just isn’t practical because of the circumstances they’re in. They compromise their values all the time in the name of survival. They don’t like it, but they’ve given up. But then Muse B enters their life, someone who hasn’t given up on morality. Can the two of them change their circumstances together? Or is Muse B fated to end up like Muse A?

🍂 Muse A has recently gone against their morals in a huge way, and they were hugely rewarded for it. Now they have a new opportunity to profit immensely, and all they have to do is hurt and betray Muse B. Was that first evil choice a one time thing, or is this who they are now? Is Muse B purely an innocent target in all of this, or are they more than they seem?

Welcome to Enneagram RPH!

I like the enneagram a lot as a personality metric and writing/characterization tool, so I decided to make this blog as an enneagram-focused roleplay resource. Suggestions are welcome, and thanks for stopping by!

Blog content

The first thing I made for this blog was a series of informal masterlist posts for muses of each enneagram number: [xxx]

I’m not here to run a super serious scholarly enneagram blog, but I also hope to use the enneagram as more than a gimmick! Some content and rp memes will be completely generic, and most of the ones that do relate to the enneagram will be approachable and useful whether you’ve heard of the enneagram or not. I generally hope to put out content that encourages deep authenticity, deep character study, and good communication.

What is the enneagram?

This video (not mine) is a really good introduction:

Wikipedia article: [xxx]

Type descriptions from The Enneagram Institute: [xxx]
