relationship status | a meme ♡

the single premise. single. taken. it's complicated. pining for my best friend. seriously, mentally devoted to my fellow mech pilot. in a committed relationship with the monster who ate my brother. dumped. whatever their lot in love, your character has been forced to wear a button displaying their relationship status for the world to see.

so, put their pride/shame in the header. then tag around!

He has a *partner*

[mrmercury]

Of course he’s important to me.

[mrmercury]

You could have stayed.

You could have asked me to come with you.

[chugen]

Hmm.

[ He nods his head once, severely, as he listens to the other speak, as if he's the audience at a poetry recital and taking in each line, each syllable and committing them to memory. He should know how to, he listens to Natsu-sama often enough.

But Natsu-sama writes about umbrellas in the rain and tall shoes at the end of slender women's legs. This holds less of a sting, although one shouldn't think so from the subject matter. ]

You speak wisely for someone your age. [ Raising his chin, Isamu purses his lips. ] Until I can tell her that, perhaps the two of us should be miserable together for a little while.

[ Walking over to a nearby log of wood, Isamu sits down, gesturing to the spot next to him. ]

[hiraut]

You could have kept your promise.

[mrmercury]

Would you have let me go like that, if it was me?

[iownyou]

It's hard to be settled on when most people can't even see me to settle for me.

Not that I want anyone to settle for me.

have you considered that maybe the adventure was the relationship all along?

[negativechill]

[excogitating]

Well, I know a thing or two about marriage myself.

That's not true. My wedding night involved me getting stabbed and smashing a raider in the face. You know, I bet his name wasn't even Monty!

But look at this, we're talking! We're sharing!

[againstgod]

[the spirit of his sword, huh. what a coincidence.]

Most relationships are.

loosely 'engaged' to her daughter's toxic crush

[gaeaf]

[ Depending on who asks, she might elaborate or ignore trivial 'relationship' questions. ]

[smartass_captain]

The reports we filed along the way that made Starfleet put their collective head in their hands?

Technically, single.

[uncrownedawn]

[ But it’s… a little complicated. ]

[renegadedoc]

It is. But we manage. The place I work at offers daycare which makes things smooth for us.

Allergic to feeling any kind of dependence on another person.

[megascops]

vaguely dating a girl she's also terrified of

[hintplease]

Don't put it like that. It makes it sound weird.

[It's actually even weirder.]

[brandingproblem]

That's cuz you haven't had a relationship of any kind in like a hundred years.

[brandingproblem]

Yeah. [Is that still weird, having that information just out there, where people can know, instead of one of Nick Fury's closest guarded secrets? Yeah, still weird.] It's a balancing act. Or was, when I was still Avenging on the regular and a little less retired. Requires a lot of open and honest communication.

[snackattack]

[ Sweats. ] Which... Which part?

Dude, which part is the lie?

[vintagecaptain]

Yes, I'm aware of that.

[brandingproblem]

But I'm assuming you're only a little jealous cuz the idea of marriage is intimidating when--have you even been on a date before?

[vintagecaptain]

[ sigh ]

Bucky used to drag me on double dates all the time. Nat tried to set me up a lot.

[brandingproblem]

She said she was gonna try. Didn't manage it, huh.

[vintagecaptain]

Very hard to find someone with shared life experiences.

[logicalities]

[ Just this face. ]

[logicalities]

[ There's a significant pause before Spock says anything. He tilts his head, considering this information. Then, with the tone of one enlightened: ]

A relationship akin to Alexander the Great and his "good friend" Hephaestion.
