The Tag Someone New Meme

THE TAG SOMEONE NEW MEME
How It Works
Sometimes, memes can be awkward. There's always that feeling that, if you don't know the person behind the curtain, you'll be intruding somehow. Don't worry. We've all been there. Still, it's nice to have that little reassurance that hey, it's cool. We're all in this together and we just want to play.

That's where this meme comes in! The point here is to play with someone you've never played with before, OR play with a character/canon you're unfamiliar with. The prompts provided include mundane activities, chance meetings, platonic fluff, romance/smut, fighting, and crack. This is pretty much the granddaddy of meme variety, so there should be something for just about everyone.

INSTRUCTIONS
- Comment with you character(s). In the subject field, put all the info that's relevant + any preferences.
- Reply to others. Remember, the goal is to play with new people!
- The initial set of prompts is in this post. The subsequent sets are linked GoogleDocs.
- Use the RNG to get your prompts.
- Have fun!

Instead of waiting for him or talking to him face to face, she sat down on the couch and shot him off another text.

I came to see you today, for lunch.

Sorry, I was out on a case.

That took him a moment then he got it.

You saw me undercover. I was talking to a suspect. Wearing a wire. She killed her husband. I got her on tape confessing.

You looked pretty cozy.

She thought I was a killer for hire. She was trying to flirt and distract me from business. Her way of testing a guy's focus.






You don't think I'd cheat on you do you?

[personal profile] isabigdeal 2012-03-13 07:30 am (UTC)(link)
No she didn't think he would but give her extra time home alone with two kids and a dog, when she didn't even have time to shower or look decent, sometimes you get crazy.

No. Just haven't seen you much. Then saw you with her.

I had this whole thing planned in my head for lunch.

[personal profile] meditates 2012-03-13 07:34 am (UTC)(link)
Well I am off for lunch now, if you'd like to go. Also I have some good news for you.

The nanny is still here. Can you come get me?

Good news? Tell me now or wait?
meditates: (Default)

[personal profile] meditates 2012-03-13 07:44 am (UTC)(link)
I'll come get you. I'll wait, want to see your face.

I'll meet you downstairs.

She kissed the kids bye and headed downstairs, pacing around outside while she waited on him.

He pulled up outside and actually got out of the car. He walked around and opened the passenger side door for her with a smile. His eyes just lit up when he saw her.

[personal profile] isabigdeal 2012-03-13 08:20 am (UTC)(link)
She smiled brightly when she saw him and glancing into his eyes, she didn't know how she could ever think he'd cheat.

"Hey, handsome."
meditates: (Default)

[personal profile] meditates 2012-03-13 08:40 am (UTC)(link)
"Hey, Beautiful."

He leaned in for a quick kiss.
isabigdeal: (smile-hand on wall)

[personal profile] isabigdeal 2012-03-13 08:44 am (UTC)(link)
She smiled up at him, drawing that kiss out just a bit more. "I'm sorry."
meditates: (Default)

[personal profile] meditates 2012-03-13 08:49 am (UTC)(link)
"Oh baby, you have nothing to be sorry for."

He would always gladly kiss her for as long as she'd want.
isabigdeal: (guy-hugging)

[personal profile] isabigdeal 2012-03-13 08:56 am (UTC)(link)
She hugged him for a moment but didn't agree with him. "Yes, I do. I know you wouldn't cheat but I hadn't seen you much lately and I was excited about some time without the kids and I was gonna drag you away for a little fun." she explained, "Then I saw you in that diner with that woman and...I don't know."

"I love you and I'll never stray from you. I've missed you too. Tell me where you want to go, anywhere you want. A room somewhere and room service?" He drew her into his arms lovingly.

She hugged him tighter and nodded her head, "Yeah, let's do that if you have time." They needed a little time alone, even if it was just an hour.

"I have time Baby." He smiled and hugged her back letting her get into the car, once she had he closed her door for her. Walking around he slipped in and buckled in before driving.

He found a nice place, no dive would do for his wife.
isabigdeal: (smile-wide)

[personal profile] isabigdeal 2012-03-13 10:35 am (UTC)(link)
"Was this your surprise?" she asked, remembering earlier he said something about a surprise.

She was definitely impressed by the place and she leaned over close to him before they got out. "Nice place. This is the best kind of messing around during the daytime ever...with my husband who I love very much."

"No my surprise is three days off." He grinned just waiting for that reaction.
isabigdeal: (happy for you)

[personal profile] isabigdeal 2012-03-13 10:52 am (UTC)(link)
She gasped, "I get you all to myself for three whole days?" she asked, hugging him tight. "I won't want to let you go back to work." It wasn't often he got three days off in a row or even two.
