Hugpile meme!

We all love our characters, even if we sometimes take a great deal of glee in dropping small mountains on them. Thus this meme, where they can hugpile and cuddle to their hearts' content.

You are in a vast room that seems somehow familiar to anyone who was around for the slumber party. Things that happen over here won't necessarily disturb what's happening over there, with a couple of semi-screened areas for semi-privacy and all the pillows and blankets and soft (or bouncy) surfaces you could ever want. Refreshments are available - energy drinks, Livian's candy, Roy's popcorn, and whatever else you'd like to dream up. There are even some cuddly toys left over from the slumber party and the octopus is still here.


~Rules!~ (shamelessly stolen from the sleepover meme)


When starting a thread, put what you're doing, who's involved, and any warnings in the subject line (e.g. 'Pillow fortress || OTA || tooth-rotting fluff'.) Also use the subject line in case a thread develops in such a way that new warnings are needed.

Within an open-to-all context, threadjacking and multiplayer threads are HIGHLY ENCOURAGED.~~ Threads locked to a few characters are allowed too.

Continuity is variable, and likely unique to each thread. What happens in-meme stays in-meme unless you want it to apply somewhere else, and snuggling up in the Rinzlerpile doesn't mean you can't also snuggle in the Userpile somewhere else.

This meme is safe. Like, really safe. Highest level of physical harm that can happen in this area is shoving someone or getting whacked with a pillow; anyone who attempts harmful physical contact (including unwanted disc meddling, I'M LOOKIN' AT YOU, CLU~) is quantum-teleported out of reach before the harm can happen, ~as many times as it takes~ for the message to sink in, and everyone goes in fully aware of this. Viruses and glitches are contained in a katamari ball quantum sphere which suppresses their infectious capabilities; such spheres can merge with other spheres, and non-viruses can go in and out of them at will (and only perceive a mild static sensation if a virus tries to infect them).

Which makes this a good place to thread with folks your characters don't often get an IC chance to thread with.

No pressure. This meme isn't expiring any time soon. Feel free to take your time!

Of course common rp courtesy applies here -- no godmodding, be mindful of one anothers' comfort levels, warn as needed, ask if uncertain of something, etc. Which we all do because we're awesome.~~

Other than that, HAVE FUN! |D

[Bit bobs cheerfully as the smaller bit zips around it, then watches as it inches closer to the flicky thing. Joins in the giggling yes chirps when it get zapped.]

Yes-yes-yes!

[That looks like fun! Let Bit try. It slowly, gradually makes its way towards the flicky thing, just like Bitty had...]

[Bitty hovers, practically vibrating with the anticipation and trying to restrain its yes-flares.

Closer, closer...Dumont suppresses a chuckle, and twitches the flat prong, gently whapping Bit away with a static charge.

Bitty flares with laughter so much it sinks to the floor, unable to keep floating.]

Yes-yes-yes-yes-yes!

[All the yes chirp giggles from Bit when it is flicked. This flicky thing is awesome! It'll have to show Clu later on.

But for now, it floats down to briefly nudge Bitty, who's still on the floor. C'mon, bit-buddy, you're missing the flicky thing!

Bit soon floats back up to try its luck again, though. Wonder what happens if it tries coming down from above all sneaky-like?]

[Bitty would rejoin, but the zappy play thing always sees it coming from above. Fellow Bit, that's not how to sneak! Everyone can see you up there!]

No!

[Then again, what if it uses Bit as a distraction, in order to sneak up properly?]

...Yes.

[Bitty rolls forward with all the stealth, oh yes. It can't possibly get them both at once!

....Or maybe it can. Dumont's tail twitches up, then sideways, sending both binary creatures sprawling across the blankets. Drat.]
tanks4thememory: (Bit Yes)

Probly gonna bring Clu into this shortly, only so much milage you can get out of a bit. XD

[personal profile] tanks4thememory 2013-02-25 05:29 am (UTC)(link)
[Clearly you know nothing about sneaking, other bit; Clu would hide from or get the drop on programs from ledges above their heads all the time. It's the last thing they expect!

Closer... closer...

*Flick-zap!*]


No! Yes-yes-yes!

[Clearly they need a new strategy. Maybe if they both come at it on the ground, just in different directions...?]

[Have a muttering no as Bitty ponders the proposition. Could work. It can't have sensors on both sides of its weird-shaped head. Bit's bigger, so Bitty will sneak around behind it while its distracted, and then they'll both move in.]

Yes, yes-yes.

[With a bounce-and-no, Bitty pretends to lose interest and rolls off behind a lump of blanket, then zips forward once it thinks it's out of sight.]

[Tiny yes-yes-yes from behind this pillow. Ready when you are, Bit!]
tanks4thememory: (Bit Yes)

[Bit has also hidden itself behind a pillow on the opposite side of the flicky thing, waiting for the opportune moment. It scoots a little closer, hiding behind a fold of blanket, just to check things out first, then...]

Yes!

[It zips out, sure it was going to do it this time...!

*Flick-zap!*

Drat. This time, though, it bounces into more than just blankets. Namely the chest of a very familiar yellow-circuited program.]


Yes!

[Oh hey there, Clu. ...Clu! Clu! You've gotta come see this awesome thing it found!

Clu just reaches up and pets it gently, chuckling a bit.]


Was wondering where you'd wandered off to.

Seems you've found something to entertain yourself.

[Not quite clear whether that last bit is directed at Dumont or the bits, since they both seem pretty entertained. Either can answer, though.]
relicguard: (Default)

[personal profile] relicguard 2013-02-27 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
No-no-nooOOoo!

[Stalking forgotten, Bitty darts out of hiding to whine at Clu for distracting its playmate, and for giving away their positions. Clu ruined their game! Ruining ruin-er!]

[Dumont meanwhile chuckles and tucks his tail up around his haunches, no longer a playtoy.]

They're rather persistent little things, aren't they? Although I'm not entirely sure what their aim was, to be honest.

[Have a rude-sounding flat noise, Dumont. Only Bits understand the intricacies of bit-games.]
tanks4thememory: (Smile)

[personal profile] tanks4thememory 2013-02-27 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[Clu just reaches up and gives Bitty a little pet too, chuckling, combining the gesture with a friendly ping of greeting, before turning back to Dumont.]

Yup. I'm not sure if they even knew what their aim was, though.

Anyway, nice to meet you; name's Clu. And not the one you may have heard about, just so you know.
relicguard: (Default)

[Bitty stops squeaking in surprise and hovers there for a micro.]

Yes?

[Only the curly-haired swimming program has ever pinged it. How strange. A moment's more hovering, and it sinks back over to a blanket to alight and ponder this weirdness.

Dumont, meanwhile, nods and gives Clu a smile. Suspicious, but not for the name and resemblance.]


I've heard no rumors concerning a program named Clu, though I will take your word if I do. You look somewhat familiar to me, however. Didn't I chase you out of a memory archive once?

[Yes, Hacker, have all the side-eye for your prior server infiltrations.]
tanks4thememory: (Smile)

[personal profile] tanks4thememory 2013-03-01 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
[Clu pauses a moment and thinks about that.]

Hmmm... Another version of me, maybe. [shrugs] Given the number different systems that this Grid is connected to, duplicates are surprisingly common.

I don't think I ever saw a Tower Guardian outside their control pod myself. [Amused smirk] And I'd definitely remember getting chased by someone like you. [Indicates Dumont's decidedly large and feline body.]

[A rumbling chuckle.]

I suppose I am somewhat memorable. Very well. As long as you don't cause trouble, I accept bygones will be bygones.

[He will be keeping an eye on you nevertheless. He wouldn't be a very good Guardian if he didn't.]
tanks4thememory: (Smile)

[personal profile] tanks4thememory 2013-03-02 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
[Fair enough. Not like he could really cause any trouble in this place anyway.]

Well, I can't really promise not to cause any trouble. [mischievous grin]

But yeah, I try to keep it on the harmless end of things. Unlike some programs- who shall remain nameless-, I'm not glitched enough to do any kind of serious harm to the system I live in.
relicguard: (Default)

[personal profile] relicguard 2013-03-02 08:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[Fair enough, program. Dumont gives you one last fish-eye look before nodding in satisfaction.]

Glad to hear it, my boy. The system has enough trouble these cycles, it seems.
tanks4thememory: (Clu with Yes bit)

[personal profile] tanks4thememory 2013-03-04 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
[Nods]

True enough. Both in the old system and this one, unfortunately.
relicguard: (Default)

[personal profile] relicguard 2013-03-04 06:28 am (UTC)(link)
[An agreeing rumble, and then Dumont uncoils, arching his rump as he stretches his forelimbs with a yawn. Rising to all fours, his head comes up to Clu's chest, ignoring the domed headdress and bulk of his armour. He would easily tower over the hacker were he to stand on his hind legs. For now, he simply smiles, hundreds of pounds of well-coded guardian hidden behind a gentle nature.]

I believe I shall take a stroll around the domain. There are far too few programs brave enough to approach me, it seems, so I shall have to take the initiative.
tanks4thememory: (Smile)

[personal profile] tanks4thememory 2013-03-06 06:02 am (UTC)(link)
[Clu nods. Also, big Guardian cat is big.]

Alright. Guess I'll see ya around then.

[Smiles and waves, as Bit chimes in with a cheerful 'yes', before program and bit turn to wander off back into the room together.]
