THE LOVE CONFESSIONS MEME

Confessions of feelings are rarely as nice and romantic as they seem in the Hollywood flicks. Sometimes, they're screamed across an empty house as someone leaves. Others, they whispered across white pillow cases as bodies lie close together in the dark. Of course, these feelings may not be returned, but it may be the only shot you have.

If you even meant to spill, anyway.

How to Play
- Comment with your character, putting your information and preferences somewhere in the comment.
- Comment to other characters. Roll the RNG to get your prompt, or pick one.
- Play out the scene and take it whatever direction you'd like.
- Be cute and fun or sad and depressing.

Prompts

1. Planned: You've been planning to tell this person how you feel, and you know exactly the way to do it.

2. Spontaneous: Uh-oh, it just slipped out! Maybe you weren't thinking, maybe it was a fight, but somehow, your secret's out.

3. Heat of the Moment: What's better than calling someone's name out in the trows of passion? Why, telling them you love them, of course!

4. The Last Time: You're coming clean with your feelings because you're dying, moving away, leaving the planet, going to war, whatever. Might as well when you'll probably never see them again.

5. Jealousy: You've seen the one you love in the arms of another, and you just have to let your feelings be known so they don't end up with the wrong person! Selfish, what's selfish?

6. Drunk: A drunk man's words are a sober man's thoughts, so maybe you should be careful what you say, or you'll be telling your best friend you have the hots for her. Awkward.

7. Lie: You don't actually have feelings for this person, but you need them to believe that you do in order to use them, get something, or perhaps to not hurt their feelings.

8. Sweet: You confess...and they feel the same, and have wanted to say it for a while. Oh, how cute! Go on and enjoy your cute little romance.

9. One-sided: One of you confessed, but it's completely unrequited. Can you still be friends, or is that too painful?

10. Forbidden: Your love for this person is totally uncool - not allowed, even. But it has to be brought to light, preferably by you.

11. Unfulfilled: While you both love each other, you decided mutually that this can't go any further.

[The changing room is abandoned except for just the two of them, Ayako-chan and Miu. It makes Miu recall that night more than ten years ago. I like you, Yu-chan, Tomomin had said. I like you a lot. Now it's Miu's turn, it seems - to experience a first love that isn't a first love at all, but it being a second love instead she needs to be completely honest about it, doesn't she? No, she definitely can't hide behind high school insecurities! Swallowing once, she turns to Ayako-chan. The words have been spoken for her already, so it's just a matter of repetition. It should be easy, really - she used to be an actress, after all. And that Miu doesn't let herself struggle with it... Tough Ayako-chan will appreciate that, if no other part of it.]

I like you, Ayako-chan. [A pause. Acting was always her weakest talent.] I like you a lot.

[It's been a tough day and her feet are hurting. Her ankles will be on fire tonight. She doesn't usually dwell on training aches all that much, but when Miu-chan turns towards her, when she speaks - every little ache, every tiny twinge of pain and stiffness seem to double in intensity. She stares at her, tries to understand. Surely, it's simply Miu-chan, being her usual, tactless self, maybe saying things wrong by accident because she can't help being special. Surely.]

Don't say things like that, Miu-chan.

[She turns away quickly, biting her lower lip as she fishes out her jacket from the locker. Prepared to flee if she has to. She can't... There's no way...]

[It's taken months for Miu to finally accept those romantic feelings that she has apparently developed for Ayako-chan. Of all people. Ayako-chan who doesn't even like her as a friend, but that's alright too! Definitely. Because Miu's emotions aren't warm and fluffy like they were with Tomomin. They're sharper. They make her ache. It's such an important difference, even if the words are the same.]

I've planned it really carefully, though. [Walking around Ayako-chan, Miu stops in front of her. Meets her eyes. Earnestly. She's been in this position once before, right? There's no need to be afraid. This time.] But... To say something like this. It shouldn't have to be so difficult.

[From the beginning, Kotori Miu has taken up too much of everyone's attention. Coming in the way she did, landing a big role way quicker than anyone else. Of course, someone like Miu-chan would steal the spotlight. It's what she's been taught to do and that's not the problem at all. Rather... Rather, it's hard to stand the way that she steals and steals and receives nothing but love and admiration in return. From the company. From Ueno-sensei himself. And from... everyone. Everyone.]

It's difficult because it's fake. [And faking is hard. That's what she knows. She turns away again with her jacket held tightly, rigidly, in one hand, though she glances sideways at Miu-chan. Can't quite help it, even now.] It's just something else you can say, Miu-chan, because it doesn't matter to you.
