Haven't done this one in a while, so!
Your pup has just ingested a large quantity of truth potion. Any questions asked of them they have to answer truthfully, whether they want to or not! There's absolutely no way around it.

Tag in your pup's name, and others will ask them questions. Nothing is off the table!

First of the year!

Tag into this post with characters you're thinking of apping to the game (characters who are not currently in-game or currently reserved by someone else). It can be just a tag, a brief EP, whatever you want. You can be new to the game, or simply want to test out a fresh pup. Tag each other with these characters or those already in game, and have fun.

Happy Holidays, y'all! Time for a holiday meme.
Logging in to your pup's journal, tag in-character with their letters to Santa or simply their Christmas/belated Hanukkah/holiday of choice wishlist. These lists and letters can be as realistic as you want them to be, or a list of what they might want in a world where money was no object. They can be things that have to be purchased, or things that could be made, or intangible wishes (like wanting a loved one to show up in time for the holidays). Really brainstorm what your pups might want or need or what they might ask for from specific friends and family.

Then, if you want, you can comment to other lists, for whatever reason, perhaps even letting them know what your pup plans to get for them.

BONUS: Add your own wishlists for what you'd like to get and give your pups in terms of plot, dynamics, scenarios, etc., in 2026.

It's been 84 years.
Snap cup time, snap cup time, gather ye round!
Friends and foes together, united and bound.
Pass it to your neighbor instead of blowing up
and we'll find harmony and love in the snap cup!

Tag your characters into the meme so that others can leave an "anonymous praise note or warm fuzzy" for them! Messages can be from players to each other OR between characters (they don't need to know each other in-game, and nothing says you can't do both!). Anonymity is optional, but totally fun. They can be anything from a compliment about their appearance to an expression of lust to gushing praise for their many personal virtues or anything in between. Tag in and around! There's plenty of love for everyone.

Login info for [personal profile] citysecrets can be found here. And there's no such thing as late tags! Keep the love flowing all week!

Let's try something a little different. You've probably seen those alignment charts that distribute characters among different categories. Sometimes they place characters along axes, sometimes they list possible reactions to a scenario. I'm going to place some in comments under this post, and I invite you to fill them out with either text or images. You can use your own characters only or include their friends, family, canonmates, etc., and you can add top levels with more templates as you so desire.

Here you can find generators that let you make new ones or fill out some existing ones, and there are a whole bunch here on Pinterest as well, among many, many others. NOTE: Most images are links either to a larger version for editing or to a site that lets you fill it out right there.

NOTE: This is an image-based meme but the replies don't need to be images. Feel free to write out which ones apply to which of your characters instead!

Got a secret to tell, a confession to get off your chest, a message you want to send? Post secrets anonymously here (you can use [personal profile] citysecrets if you like), either as postcards or as plain text, with or without the recipient's name in the subject, and others can guess who they're from.

If you're looking for stock images, stock.xchng is a great source. TinyPic is a good host for those anonymous images, as is our game gallery, and if you're looking for a quick photo editor, check out PicMonkey, addcaption, roflbot

Muns: Post here listing all of the characters you play (you might want to list journals, too, just for reference) or are thinking of playing.

Everyone: Ask the MUNS anything about the GAME or THEIR PUPS, because we all know the muns will answer when the characters won't. As a twist on the original, you're encouraged to ask whatever ridiculous question you like. What song gets stuck in your pup's head? or What would their role be in a heist? or Rank their favorite ice cream flavors. Of course, you can ask more serious questions, if you like. Hell, you can even have pups ask the questions, but ANSWERS are coming from the PLAYERS.

Make a list of five things your pup would like to say to five different people - but don't mention their names. The messages don't have to be secrets.

This isn't limited to current characters within the city limits - feel free to include the ones currently on reserve or pups back home. Other pups are allowed to comment with a guess if they think they recognize themselves. Nothing counts IG, though.

Top-level your characters and others will respond with a list of three people for them to place in one of three categories.

• fuck / marry / kill
• hug / best friends / block
• slow burn / fake date / enemies-to-lovers

Feel free to select one of the above as the default for your character, or, if someone hasn't specified, to do so yourself when offering up options. Or just wing it! Bonus points for explanations, and the people listed, of course, do not have to be fellow citizens or even people they know.

Time for a meme!

Clearly, sometimes what we need most is advice from a stranger. Tag in anonymously with letters seeking advice about anything at all, in the vein of columns such as Dear Abby. Relationships, careers, friendship, sex, what to have for dinner tonight, how to get a blood stain out of silk, or whatever strikes your pup's fancy from the mundane to the complex. Others will then respond accordingly, anonymously or not. You can post as many letters or responses as you'd like but just remember to keep it all IC.

Alternately, structure these posts the way you might see in a subreddit like r/AITA or r/relationships rather than a letter to an advice column!

Anonymous comments are turned on, but please feel free to use [personal profile] citysecrets to your advantage. Login information can be found here.

Tag characters in and others will offer them a choice between two options, whether these are items, actions, etc. You must choose between the two possibilities and answer honestly. Nothing is IG and nothing is off limits. Feel free to ask questions with either your characters or your own journal!

Sometimes we drop pups and their voices still nag at us. Sometimes we're interested in characters who can't actually be apped or whom we feel are too obscure to actually bring. Consider this a Test Drive for all the pups who are gone, who haven't arrived yet, or won't ever show up (or anyone, really), where you can "trot out every old/obscure/untested RP account in your arsenal." Other pups (present, past, and future) can tag them, ask them questions, yell at them for leaving, whatever you like!

Guys, we haven't played Truth or Dare since 2021. That's wild. Let's play now!

Tag in your characters. Ask each other truth or dare. Ask a question or pose a challenge accordingly. Rinse and repeat.


For anyone looking for inspiration, check out past iterations of this meme in the tag — or try searching for a list on Google, there are some good ones out there!
