Affection Attempt

[anonromance]

AFFECTION ATTEMPT Let's face it: you're bad at this whole "romantic affection" thing. Really, that's being generous. You suck abysmally at it. Still, you've found yourself in something resembling a human relationship, somehow, and you feel like you either have or want to show you care. Uhm, congrats. I'm sure this is going to work out well for you! Just kidding. Be it a physical gesture, kind words directed their way, or a gift, you're going to screw this up, most likely. Screw it up badly. Hopefully, they'll be charmed by you at least trying and won't be offended. Fingers crossed. Comment with your character, info, preferences, and desired role: either the one pulling the attempt or the unwitting significant other. Reply to others. Thread.

Daken || Marvel 616 || OTA

[dakenspoorlifechoices]

[I need to see Daken trying to be affectionate after Wolverines. Because it'll be awkward for everyone involved.]

[changing_faces]

[She's been out all day, in fact most of the previous night too, working on something she hasn't told Oscar or Uncle Lupin about. She won't either. She takes off the black motor-cycle helmet, and shakes out her hair, before dropping the helmet onto a chair.

It's good to be home, especially in the knowledge that wonderful things are going to unfold. She does enjoy giving herself birthday presents, and this year will be no exception.]

[please value yourself too much to date him]

[crotchstallion]

[ so.

Jack knows he's a jerk 100% of the time and takes things for granted, and maybe someone's best friend grew a pair and have Jack the ass-ripping he's been long since due for.

So Jack has a messenger deliver a package to Rhys in his office because Jack has too much pride to do it personally.

It's a coupon book for all sorts of ridiculous stuff, from "the best blowjob you'll ever have" to "I Will Personally Strangle That One Person You Really Hate".

Twoo Wuv.]

Illumi Zoldyck | Hunter x Hunter

[pinpricks]

[don't date a guy named illumi]

time for some bullshit

[choosepleasure]

[Well. This is not what he had expected to see after coming through the door. Illumi just standing there , eyes wide and unreadable as always, holding something out to him.

... wait, has he just been standing near the doorway waiting for him? And for how long?

Tyki doesn't take it. He just looks down at Illumi's hands and what he's holding before looking back up at him. His expression completely baffled.]

What are you doing?

im so sorry...

[ostracism]

[ either dany fell on her head recently and lost all memory of what a magnificent moron asher is, or he has somehow managed to charm his way into her good graces. however it happened, the westerosi sellsword and the queen of far too many titles are a thing.

a thing that requires romance and affection and, okay, asher's pretty good at both of those things if he sets his mind to it. but he's honestly been a bit out of practice since gwyn. he has to really think about what dany would even like. the heads of her enemies on pikes? too easy. something related to dragons — no, too obvious. flowers? she'd probably think he was joking. he even goes to beskha for advice, and all she suggests is he give dany a good fuck and call it a night. thanks beskha. malcolm offers slightly better advice: make her something. not a terrible idea, but what in the name of fire and fuck can he make her...

wait, he's got it. asher sets to work immediately, gathering materials from around the camp to eventually make ... a small wooden doll, with bits of straw used for the hair, a little cloth cloak in red because that seems more appropriate for a targaryen, doesn't it? and a tiny crown upon her head. he made a doll version of... dany.

this was the worst idea ever. ]

Daenerys? [ he calls out, her name still feels strange on his tongue. maybe he should call her queen daenerys. lady... q-- oh god here she comes. asher holds the hand-crafted doll behind his back, grinning stupidly. ] Nice night, isn't it? Stars are out, weathers good, no one seems to be dying from blood loss! [ all in all, a good night so far. ]
