Well. There's a first time for everything!!

"Well. There's a first time for everything!!"

1. Post with your character in the subject line. Make sure to mention any preferences
2. For tagging around, pick a prompt, RNG twice or make up your own. The themes are Action/Adventure, General, Games, Hurt, Shipping, Sex, Misc/Silly. The number of prompts in each section varies
3. It doesn't HAVE to be the first time for both characters. So long as someone is new to the situation.
4. Don't see a prompt you like? Make one up!!! Remember, like I said, there IS a first time for everything.

ACTION / ADVENTURE
1 Hunt - You're out hunting for the first time; be it for wild life, or the Most Dangerous Game.
2 Battle - You're fighting in a war of sorts, and before, during, or after you may or may not need a little help
3 Dual - You vrs your rival, the first face off you've had.
4 Exploring - Jungle, desert, unexplored ruin, you've never been on this adventure before, and you are RARING to go!!!
5 Kill - Killing isn't easy, and the first time is the hardest. Your target could be anyone.
6 McDonalds - It's 3AM and you are damn hungry. Time for a first bumbling adventure through the drive through!!!
7 Video Game - You've never played this game before, be it your standard single player, or some kind of MMO.
8 Curse - You've been cursed!!!! You have no idea what to do??
9 Rescue - "Princess! I'll save you!!!" Too bad you've NEVER done this hero stuff before.

GENERAL
1 School - First day of school is hard, be it a new year or a new school, things are just messy all around.
2 Holiday - Maybe you've celebrated this before, but something about the holiday is different. Christmas parties? Away from home? Or maybe you're just new to the holiday all together.
3 Secret Santa - Getting presents for mostly-strangers is impossible at best
4 Public Speech - Theater, address, school presentation, whatever it is, you're a wreck
5 Dress-up Mess-up - Walk into work without a shirt on. Visit your friends place with it inside out. Wearing your sweats backwards for hours. This sort of thing NEVER happens
6 Cooking - You need help learning how to cook. Good luck
7 Job - It's your first day on the job, and you are sweating bullets.

(BOARD) GAMES
1 Monopoly - never played monopoly before? Well WEll WELL.
2 Uno - It's an easy enough game, so you decide to sit down for this fun card game instead
3 Jenga - Never mind, those other two games are boring. Let's get DANGEROUS. Bonus points for truth and dare Jenga
4 Gone Wrong - Okay maybe Monopoly, Uno, and Jenga weren't a good idea. The game is too heated!! More heated than you've ever experienced, and hair is gonna fly!!
5 Ouija Board - Ouija boards are supposed to be pretty cool, right? Contact your first spirit, and see what it has to say
6 Roleplay / LARP - Part of you is wondering if normal people normally do this, but you'll give it a shot
7 LIFE - No one should get this emotional over a board game, but they're like a family to you.

5 Fight - It's the first fight you and another have gotten into, and tensions are on the high.
6 Apology - You fucked up, and a big apology is in store

SHIPPING
1 Crush - This is it!!! This is finally the time you tell your crush you LIKE them. Maybe ask them out!!! Okay!! Here goes!

7 Family - There's a new addition coming into the family!! How exciting. And terribly nerve wracking because goodness, are you ready for this commitment??

SEX
1 Touch - You've never done it before, and naturally you're nervous. Awkward first time commence.
2 Collision - Sex isn't as simple as pornos make it look. Maybe, instead of a GREAT kiss, you just slammed your head against your partners and DAMN that fuckin' hurt.
3 Interruption - "I seriously do not think I can do it with your cat just STARING like that!!!"
4 Stranger - You don't really know this person, you only just met tonight. You barely even know their name.
5 Strip Tease - You've never done this before, so tripping over your pants is emminent.
6 Roleplay - Getting dressed up in costumes SOUNDED like a good idea at the time. Now you just feel silly.
7 Toys - Are there instructions on the box??? Do we need them???

SILLY / MISC
1 Movies - You've never actually watched this movie before, or even this genre. Better hope its good!
2 Drunk - It only takes a few short beers to start tripping over yourself.
3 Hangover - Maybe you should have stopped at the first few?
4 Prank - Haha!!! Gotcha!!! --Or maybe you needed help with your first big prank?!
5 Bacon - BACON???? BACON!!!!!!!!!! Who knew it was so delicious?!?!?
6 Parkour - They do it all the time on TV! It can't be that hard!! (Said before the painful first face plant)
7 Snow - It's your first time seeing snow, and it's twice as incredible as you had imagined. And three times as cold, brr!!
8 The Ocean - Not everyone has the honor of living near the ocean, so seeing such a vast body of water can really be breath taking.

[ ooc: would you like to do a thing with these two? some kind of AU maybe, with Vanellope as a visiting princess? c: ]

( ooc || sounds excellent! If you could write the starter, that'd be awesome :] )

Oooh this is so cool! [ Vanellope skips around Arendelle's plaza, staring up at the freshly falling snow, courtesy of one snow queen. She's all bundled up in mint green and pink and sturdy winter boots. But with the way she flits around from one end of the plaza to the other - a strange power she was born with, apparently - it probably wasn't a stretch to believe that she'd trip over herself eventually. ]

I've never seen snow before! Well, I mean I've seen it in picture books, and there were a whole lotta mountains on the way over here but it doesn't snow back home and this is so exciting! It's like having your own piles of ice cream on your own front yard, this is amazing!

[ Also, she sort of talked a lot. ]

[The queen had been called to counsel on a strange case. Apparently a princess of a land far away from hers had been found to have... strange powers; and the king and queen had heard of the strange Snow Queen of Arendelle and thought it would be best if their daughter had someone to look up to or model after.

Elsa didn't hesitate to accept, though she was apprehensive to think she would be the best choice.

No matter, a new princess was in her presence and she would do her best to make her feel welcome.

She approaches Vanellope as she flits around with a welcoming smile]

I wouldn't say it's exactly like having ice cream in our front yard, but I suppose it's the closest we'll ever get. [She gives Vanellope a polite curtsy.] Welcome to Arendelle, Princess Vanellope.

[ Vanellope pauses mid-run to turn at the sound of the new voice. She'd escaped her bodyguard earlier so that she could properly play in the snow, so she wasn't expecting anyone to sneak up on her. Least of all the queen! ]

Um. Queen Elsa, right? Hi! [ When Elsa curtsies, Vanellope pauses before doing a curtsy of her own. A clumsy one, as it wasn't something she'd quite mastered yet, and her slight nervousness makes her fade in and out of sight briefly. But the intent was there, and she makes up for it with a bright smile. ] It's nice to meetcha!

[ She wasn't the most attentive during her etiquette lessons, as it was beginning to be obvious. She didn't really seem to mind. ]

[She was used to princesses not exactly being... entirely princess-y. Her sister Anna being a good example. She'll just chuckle in response and lean over so she can get a better look at her.]

So, this is your first time in the snow, is it?

[ Under the Queen's close and careful scrutiny, Vanellope shifts her weight from one leg to the other. Gosh, do you have to stare like that, Your Majesty? Vanellope glitches again, though she does make a point of keeping a smile on her face. Because, well, snow! ]

Yeah! We don't get much snow back home. Most of it's all up in the mountains and stuff, but I wasn't allowed outta the castle much so I never really got to go play in it.

It's really cool, though! Well, I mean it's cold, yeah, but it's cool!

I know what being locked up all the time is like.

[A gentle smile-- and then a glance to the side.]

So, you've never got to play in the snow... [A bit lower, as if they're sharing a secret.] Do you want to build a snowman?

[ Unconsciously, Vanellope's voice takes on a whisper just like Elsa's as she leans in close, eyes wide and excited. ]

A snowman? We can do that?

We can do whatever you like. You're my guest here.

[She intended to try and help Vanellope with her powers with as much fun as she could muster.]

Oh. [ Vanellope beams. ] Okay! Let's build a snowman! The biggest snowman ever! [ Or maybe just one her size, since she spreads her arms out wide and that's... not very big! ]

Okay. Are you ready?

[A big wide grin as she spreads her hands apart in front of her and her magic begins to swirl between them.]

Yeah!! I was born ready!

[ Vanellope hops up in place eagerly, excited and awed by all the magic swirling around them. She tries to catch one of the sparkles (a snowflake?) in between her hands, gasping excitedly when her hand glows blue from the inside. ]

[She just laughs. Definitely a mini-Anna.]

Okay, close your eyes and tell me about someone you care about back home. Keep your thoughts on them.

I'll try to turn them into a snow-man.

[A bit of an exercise in disguise. She didn't want to limit Vanellope's powers, like she had tried with her own, but she wanted to try and see if it was possible for her to gain a bit of control over them.]

Someone from home? Um, okay... [ Vanellope shuts her eyes and thinks hard. ]

Well... Ralph's this huge guy with hands bigger than anything. [ She spreads her hands wide again, for emphasis. ] He smells kinda bad, and he has the craziest hair. And he wrecks everything when he gets really mad, it's kinda funny. And his neighbors are all mean, so he doesn't have any friends 'cept for me. But that's okay, 'cause who doesn't wanna be friends with me? I'm awesome.

I make him take me around on his shoulders a lot, and sometimes I get to climb onto his head and it's cool 'cause I can see everything from all the way up there! Basically he's my royal chump, but only I get to call him that...

Alright. What does his face and hair look like?

[She's just trying to get the basic shape, she'll let Vanellope do the fine detail work when she gets a look at it.]

[ Vanellope frowns thoughtfully, and then she grins. ]

He's got a big nose, and these bushy eyebrows. And his hair's nuts. Kinda like something exploded in it. [ She snickers. ] And it grows all the way past his ears. [ aka: sideburns ] And he's got this doofy smile, but he doesn't smile with his teeth a lot.

[She spends particular attention to the details Vanellope mentions. Letting her magic swirl this "Ralph" up and up.]

He sounds like an interesting fellow.

[And a few final finishing touches-- And Elsa finishes with a flourish.

It's not entirely like this Ralph, she's sure. But she wants to let Vanellope have the fun of building a snowman as well]

Go ahead and open your eyes. Feel free to add on or take away from it.

[ Finally, Vanellope opens her eyes. ]

Wow, that thing's huge!

[ And then she's taking a running step forward - flickering before her foot can touch the ground and suddenly reappearing on Snow-Ralph's shoulder. But because of her momentum, she nearly falls off! ]

[ She grabs Snow-Ralph's head. Woah! ]

[ - And recovers not two seconds later, completely unfazed while she turns to put her hands on Snow-Ralph's nose. ]

... But you got his nose all wrong! Here... [ She sticks her tongue out and adds a bit more snow to it. And for good measure, she starts adding to his sideburns... ]

[She'll just laugh, trying to keep up with her instructions and energy.]

Just tell me what to change and I'll try to fix it!

[But really, it was just as enjoyable to sit on the side and watch Vanellope get to work.]

No, it's okay! I got it. [ She says insistently, wanting to put the finishing touches herself. After all, Vanellope knows what Ralph looks like better than Elsa does! Or, that's what she figures, anyway.

And once she's done, she dusts off her gloves, stepping back - ] There. That's definitely the ol' Stinkbrain. [ - and right off of the snowman's shoulder, and into the snow. Oops. ]

[She grins, looking at what she and Vanellope had created. Though, of course, then she loses her footing and falls into the snow. Yup, definitely like a young Anna.

She'll rush over to check up on the young princess, making sure she hasn't hurt herself too badly. Elsa will offer her a hand up--]

He wasn't able to come with you to Arendelle?

[Referring to Ralph, of course.]

[ Ooof. Thankfully it was like landing on a pillow! Vanellope sits up, blinking and brushing snow from her head and shoulders. ]

... Nope, he's stuck at home. That's okay though, just means I'm gonna have a lot to tell him when I get back!

[ She takes Elsa's hand to pull herself up to her feet, not really thinking twice about it. Elsa gets a bright smile for her efforts! ]
