The Childhood Sweetheart Meme


THE CHILDHOOD ѕωєєтнєαят MEME

Ahhh, young love. Whether it's precious or bittersweet, it's something that stays with you. Remember that time...? Of course you do. Both of you thought you'd last forever. Or maybe you were too young to know what that meant. All that mattered was that you were kids and you were together. But time and circumstance tears even the best of friends and young lovers apart. That person, your childhood crush, your first love, is just a memory.

Now, you're being given a second chance. Will it be painful? Will you confess everything and try to win their affection again? You've been reunited, and it's up to you what happens.

HOW TO
① Comment with your character. You can state preferences and such in your subject.
② Characters who comment will be their childhood sweetheart/first love. The muns can figure out how that works, but when in doubt, just wing it. It's a meme. Fun is the goal here.
③ KISS AND REUNITE. Or argue and storm off. Or cry. Or laugh. Or sex. Whatever is appropriate.

I WAS FORCED INTO THIS, REALLY I WAS

[They'd met over cake.

They'd left over a dispute over the ethics of science.

And now here they were again. Face to face.

GLaDOS crossed her arms.
]

Oh. It's you.

Forced fun is still fun 8D I should probably ask if you want normal Once-ler or the Greed driven one

[personal profile] howbadcanibe 2012-04-09 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
[Once-ler always liked science, technology and inventions.
Also cake.

Ethics on the other hand...those changed with time.]

Uh? Oh...ey....it's been some times.
still_alive: (finger point)

Haha, it is! ♥ And maybe the greed driven one? If that's okay with you!

[personal profile] still_alive 2012-04-09 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
[GLaDOS has no ethics to speak of. She has no problems killing an entire room of scientists and their children with a deadly neurotoxin. And well, any casualties made were only helping to further the cause of Science.]

Yes. Six years, one hundred forty two days, to be exact.

[She casts her eyes over him.]

You certainly have been busy, haven't you?

c: Sure thing, I never have enough opportunities to play his evilish self

[personal profile] howbadcanibe 2012-04-09 05:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[Good point. Not even the Onceler is that, let's say, radical. Dead people can't buy thneeds, and thus they doesn't benefits him. He wants his target to live long lives, so they buy and buy and buy.]

You haven't changed a bit. Always with such perfect memory, among other perfect things. [Once-ler gives her a proud grin, very different from his old way to smile.]

Indeed I've been. I'm actually running a very successful business that keeps growing. It keeps me busy but it's certainly satisfying.
still_alive: (Smiiiiiirk)

His evilish self is kind of super amazing. Juuuuuust sayin'

Flattery shall get you nowhere.

[But even still, she seems pleased at the praise. She's always enjoyed getting compliments, and she's got the ego to know she deserves it.

She raises one eyebrow, unable to wipe the smirk off of her face.
]

Oh. So you turned out not to be the complete and utter failure your parents swore you would become.


[It's... a really backhanded compliment, but it's there.]

I agree, I agree....so much swag. And the boy can really rock that guitar

[personal profile] howbadcanibe 2012-04-09 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
I never hurts to try. Is it really flattery if I only speak the truth, as always?

[Oncie always liked to give people what they need. Or at least, what he thinks they need.

That sort of comments still hurt, however, this time he frowns instead of grimacing like he usually did. it only last a second, thought, and he's smiling again.] No, I'm quite the opposite actually. They work for me now.
still_alive: (that's how it is)

Oh, I agree. He should have been a rock star instead of an entrepreneur.

[personal profile] still_alive 2012-04-10 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
[And she will never get tired of the compliments. Working at Aperature has gotten her nothing but rude, snide and snarky comments about her cold and somewhat distant personality. Hearing nice things was a change she was more than willing to indulge in.]

Truth is relative. What you believe is true is meaningless to me.

[Her words might be harsh, but the grin on her face says otherwise. She's enjoying this game, and urges him to continue.

She notices the frown, and her eyebrow only raises further.
]

Oh? How deliciously... ironic.

I'm glad that I'm not the only one who thinks that. Damn his poor life choices.

[personal profile] howbadcanibe 2012-04-10 01:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[He's used to sarcastic and cold women. Once-ler still feels the need to please them and gain their appreciation, even if that feelings is weakening now that his confidence is biggering as fast as his company.]

But it's still true for someone, that must count for something. [He notices and it's more than happy to comply.] I never met anyone like you GLaDOS, you are one of a kind.

[His grin widens.] It's surprising how much life can change, and now I am willing to try anything that comes my way.
still_alive: (Smug)

Being a rockstar would have lasted him longer, too.

[personal profile] still_alive 2012-04-11 06:13 am (UTC)(link)
[GLaDOS is possibly one of the most confident and arrogant woman in the world. But that doesn't change the fact that she likes hearing nice things about herself. She can't imagine the Once-ler isn't the exact same.]

I should hope not. If you met someone else exactly like me, I would have to destroy them.

[The smirk on her face only gets wider at this new information. Willing to try anything, huh?]

Oh? Is that so?

No lie...if only. *Sigh*

[personal profile] howbadcanibe 2012-04-12 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
[Birds of a feather flock together that's what they say. He enjoys all the praising he can get, and lately he gets a lot of praising. Unless you count that orange mustached pest that follows him complaining all day]

And I have no doubts you will. Only the strong survive in this world.

[He leans forward slightly.] Anything. [Within reason, but yes.]
