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.

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.

"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."

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.
