Can somebody fall in love with a person they don't particularly like? Is jealousy romantic? Would you rather be loved quietly or adored by somebody who makes a tremendous fuss?

Everybody has opinions about love. Some of them are bound to start an argument.

→ Post your character, canon, and a question about love, attraction, dating, or relationships. Include their own answer.
→ Other characters weigh in with their opinions. They can agree, disagree, or question your character's reasoning.
→ Debate the matter, compare experiences, or turn the conversation toward something a little more personal.

A perfectly straightforward question, provided nobody thinks too hard about the answer.

Your character doesn't have to know the person asking. They don't even have to like them. Somebody's curious enough to ask, though, and now they get to hear the answer.

→ Post your character, canon, and, optionally, an in-character opening about kissing. A personal rule, a warning, et al.
→ Other characters ask whether yours would kiss them. They can make their case if they think it'll help.
→ Give an honest answer: yes, no, or perhaps under certain circumstances. If the answer is yes and both players want to pursue it, take things from there.

The table is set for a potluck, and everyone is expected to bring a little piece of themselves to share.

So, what does your character arrive with? Do they labor over a beloved family recipe, dash in with something picked up at the last minute, or perhaps present a mysterious dish that leaves everyone guessing?

• * Comment with your character and the dish they bring—let it be as heartfelt, haphazard, or enigmatic as you like.
• * Let others react: do they ask for a taste, heap their plates, or eye the offering with suspicion?

This Won't End Well

In our bones, we all know this kind of relationship.

Maybe the ending was written long before either party showed up. One of them might've made a terrible decision and spent the rest of the story paying for it. Or, despite all good intentions, the universe simply took one look at two people’s happiness and said, "absolutely not."

The endgame isn't making it to the finish line. No. Our goal here is far, far worse. We need to make everyone miserable when the whole love falls apart.

How to play: Roll, pick, combine, ignore the numbers entirely. Whatever gets your characters into the most emotionally expensive situation possible.
