Unconventional Couple
Saying: If it fits, it ships.
The Challenge: Respond to everyone who tags you, no matter how unexpected, crazy, or mismatched the characters are. Play a ship.
RULES
- Comment with your character and preferences. If you want, you can include a one-sentence or so blurb about your character. But blank comments are fine.
- Tag to others.
- RNG for prompts. Prompts cannibalized from random memes.
Sweet
1. Can't deny it - you've tried to run from your feelings for so long and you can't do it anymore. It's time that you show the object of your affection exactly how you feel. Hopefully, you don't lose everything in the process!
2. First time - it's your first time making love together. Is it awkward? Do you go all out or is it spur of the moment?
3. Accidental - you didn't actually mean to confess or kiss. They overheard you or it was an accidental kiss. Maybe you were just really drunk and let it slip!
4. Close as can be - you just want to make love and you've found a spot where it's just you and your partner, however you want it to be.
5. Happily ever after - somehow, you've made it work and you're both happy together, even if it meant you had to run away together.
6. Appreciation - show appreciation for your lover! With words, a look, or whatever your choice way to display affection is!
7. Cuddling - nothing wrong with a day of cuddling...
8. Vacation - you're on a vacation! Wherever you want to be. Road trip, amusement park, Grand Canyon, etc.
9. Family - you're visiting family! Maybe they find out about your relationship, maybe they already know, or however you want to play it out! Maybe you've got news you're starting a family by getting pregnant, adopting, or even getting a new pet.
10. Acceptance - someone who disapproved of your relationship before suddenly approves. How's that feel to you and your lover?
11. Surprise - you've planned a surprise! What is it?
12. Date - first date, second date, hundredth date, etc. What are you doing for it?
13. Reunited → it's been awhile since you've seen each other and nothing can ruin this moment.
14. Other - is there another scene you'd like to play out? Want to combine something? Do it here!
Angst
1. Conflict - you've just had a fight with your lover over your relationship or how you handle it. Can you find it in yourselves to forgive each other?
2. Cheated - your lover has cheated on you and you need to confront them about their reasons why and if you can work it out.
3. Found out - you've been found out by someone close to you and they're less than thrilled with your relationship.
4. Disgust - though they play along with it, they're secretly disgusted by the relationship they have with you and it finally comes out into the light.
5. Guilt - one of you is feeling guilty over your relationship, knowing it can never be truly normal or more than a secret.
6. Other - is there another scene you'd like to play out? Want to combine something? Do it here!
Comfort
1. Soothing touch - what better way to sooth your lover than to make love to them and show them that no matter what other people say, you're not going anywhere.
2. Fight for you - whoever has found out about your relationship is trying to hurt your lover and you're not going to let them.
3. Won't let you go - you need your lover to realize that you won't let them go, no matter what.
4. Back together - you broke up for a bit, but whatever it is between you two, you can't stay apart.
5. Injured - your lover was injured because of your relationship and it's time to patch them up.
6. Other - is there another scene you'd like to play out? Want to combine something? Do it here!
Twisted
1. Forced - you know your partner isn't interested in you like this, but you keep them going along with the relationship no matter what. Coercion, blackmail, whatever it takes.
2. Won't take no - their lips might say no, but you're not listening.
3. Control - you've given them some kind of potion to get your love interest to love you in return and they have to do whatever you say.
4. Recorded - you're not really interested in this forbidden love affair, but you must do it or you'll face some tough consequences.
5. Insult - you're cornered by those who disapprove of your relationship, hearing how filthy you are.
6. Other - is there another scene you'd like to play out? Want to combine something? Do it here!
Sexy
1. Rough - you want it rough and hard tonight. Bites, scratches, bruises, etc.
2. Toys - you want to try some props tonight... toys or fuzzy handcuffs.
3. Bondage - more extreme. You're tied up, used, forced to orgasm, whatever.
4. Make up - make up sex is the best sex.
5. Public - you're feeling a little wild so why not a blowjob under the tablecloth in a restaurant or sex in the car?
6. Interrupted - oh yes, oh yes, oh--who the hell is that watching us?!
7. Other - is there another scene you'd like to play out? Want to combine something? Do it here!
Ending
1. Left alone - you woke up to your lover trying to slip away in the night because of the strain of the relationship. Do you let them go or try and fight for it?
2. Torn apart - others are keeping you apart after they found out about your relationship, giving you only minimal contact. What do you do?
3. Ending fight - the argument has turned dirty and ends with one of you storming out.
4. Parting ways - both of you have decided to part ways. It's just so much easier.
5. Always love you - though you'll always love each other, maybe it's time the relationship goes back to being strictly platonic. It would be easier... or maybe that's just how one of you feels.
6. Other - is there another scene you'd like to play out? Want to combine something? Do it here!

And yet here he is. For a moment Kanae considers lighting the cigarette, then decides against it; he hasn't yet determined how interested Haruto is in kissing, but if there's any chance at all he'd rather his mouth not taste like nicotine when they do. Instead he tucks it back into its pack and shoves the pack into the pocket of his coat, just in time to lift his head and see Haruto coming around the corner and into the alley. ]
Hey. [ Kanae pushes up off the wall and puts his hands in his pockets too. It's early autumn, the days not quite warm enough for short sleeves and not quite cold enough for winter jackets, but after the sun goes down there's a definite chill in the air. ] Thanks for coming.
[ He doesn't ask how the show was—Kanae is confident enough in his music not to need the validation—but his expression softens a little as he looks up at Haruto. It's not a small thing to be willing to spend an hour of your weekend evening packed into a concert crowd to see a guy you just met that morning play guitar. ]
no subject
it all makes for a very thrilling, very nerve-wracking kind of evening. the hours before had been spent raiding his closet for a look that would accentuate his best assets without coming off as cheap or slutty. thank god his cousin was more than capable (and willing) to fix his hair for him, otherwise that would have been another couple of hours agonizing in front of his mirror.
in the end, he had settled for a classic sort of look: well-fitting jeans of a darker wash (classy, formal, even!), snug long-sleeve knit and a heavier leather jacket to ward off the autumn chill. he still felt a little too old standing there in a club full of early-20-somethings, but at least he blended in a little better. ]
Thanks for inviting me.
[ and he means it, too, evident in the sparkle in his eyes, the light flush on the apple of his cheeks. his own hands are in the pockets of his jacket; not because of the cold, but to hide the nervous tic of rubbing fingers. ]
You guys were great. [ haruto's own taste in music is pretty eclectic, so he was easily able to vibe just fine to the songs kanae's band played. it helped that he always appreciated live music, and that kanae himself was so mesmerizing to watch. ] You have to tell me title of the third song you played. That melody's going to be stuck in my head all night.
no subject
Through no fault of his own, though, probably. Kanae can't hold it against him. ]
The third one? It's called "Kiss It Off Me."
[ They're an instrumental band, so it's not uncommon for people not to know the titles of their songs—without lyrics, they can't drop the title into the chorus to make sure people know what they're singing along to. It pleases Kanae more than it should to know that Haruto was paying enough attention to pick a favorite song, and that he was invested enough to ask about it after.
Maybe it's that flush of appreciation that makes him bold enough to ask, ] Do you—want to have a drink? Back at my place, maybe.
[ He still isn't sure exactly what Haruto wants, but if he leans even a little bit the same way Kanae does, the invitation should make it obvious. And if he accepts... well, Kanae will cross the bridge of explaining that he doesn't fuck on the first date when he comes to it, and not before. ]
no subject
Ah... that makes sense. It sounded really... [ he trails off, feeling his cheeks warm as he realizes it would be awfully forward if he said sexy like he wanted to, and so he just lets out a little bashful chuckle instead.
thank god kanae changes the subject. ]
Yeah... I'd like that a lot, actually.
[ there is nothing but sincerity in his tone, but admittedly he finds himself feeling a little conflicted. on the one hand, he's thrilled kanae wants to spend more time with him... on the other hand, the snide voices in his mind have to wonder if this will be another one-and-done... well. he can't afford to think like that, can he? and who knows, even if things does turn out that way, it might still be a wonderful experience regardless...
he huddles his shoulders a little closer towards his ears, but it's not due to the cold. then he takes a half-step towards kanae, brows lifting. ]
Did you drive? I took a cab here...
no subject
Honestly, it's a little silly, isn't it? To be into a guy he barely knows, someone he's only known for a day. Kanae is no stranger to the uncomplicated hookup, his employment being what it is, but broadly speaking that isn't what he wants for himself, and he's used to keeping a tight leash on his emotions so they don't run away with him. Once more, with feeling: Kanae is not usually like this. ]
I took the train, [ he says. ] I don't have a license. Let's get a cab.
[ It isn't too far from the venue to Kanae's apartment, and after a long evening on stage Kanae would much rather get home quickly than fight with late-night salarymen and other university students over standing room on the subway.
There's the impulse to touch Haruto's wrist to guide him back toward the main street—a bid for connection, maybe, or some kind of small gesture of interest that might help him gauge what Haruto wants in return. But both of Haruto's hands are tucked into the pockets of his jacket, and so instead Kanae puts a brief hand at his elbow, turning him so they can walk side-by-side back out to the road, where Kanae can hail a taxi and direct it back to his place.
In the back seat, with his guitar settled between them, it feels safer for him to turn and look at Haruto more fully. He hadn't asked for Haruto's age but Kanae gets the feeling that he's a little older, and he's stunningly attractive. Maki would be green with envy if he could see Kanae now. ]
So, your cousin does hair too? [ Picking up a thread of a previous conversation, innocuous, despite the way that Kanae's gaze is steady and full of interest. ] Are you from Tokyo?
no subject
the guitar being where it is makes sense, but it also serves as a tangible reminder for haruto to slow his fucking roll. there really is no need for the way his pulse picks up upon finding himself the recipient of kanae's full attention. ]
Mm, yeah. I was actually born in America... You can probably tell my accent's not so great. I moved here for college.
[ which was. some time ago. but he opts not to emphasize as much, considering he has also come to the conclusion he's got a few years on kanae. while he doubts it'd be some kind of deal-breaker, he's also aware not everyone he meets is really keen on those kind of finer details. that kanae is asking about his family — well, his cousin — makes sense; she's their common thread, after all. inquiring where he's from could well be small talk, or a gentle way to question him about his accent. clearly, he's trying not to look too deeply into things (and thus, get his hopes up).
he lifts a hand, rubbing a lock of hair (a pale pink now, pulled up into a high ponytail) a little absently. ]
She's got a salon in the city that I'm only a couple of blocks from. Makes it hard to say no when she asks me to be her test subject for her latest whimsy.
no subject
[ Why did he ask? Because he's curious. Because, despite himself, he wants to know more about Haruto. Kanae really should moderate his expectations, he thinks, because rushing headlong into something without getting a real read on it is a surefire way to end up brokenhearted, but he can't help it—he finds Haruto interesting. Bright, warm, friendly. All things Kanae himself is not.
Kanae's gaze flicks up, following the movement of Haruto's hand to touch the soft pink strands of his hair. ]
It looks good on you, [ he says. ] My brother wishes he could be that experimental on me, but I don't have the face for it.
[ He'd let his brother bleach the undersides of his hair, but that was it. Kanae is pretty, that much he knows—pretty enough that he gets mistaken for a woman at least once or twice a month—but being pretty isn't the same as having the features to pull off something as bold as pink. It's another thing that makes Haruto compelling, in Kanae's eyes.
Honestly, what is he doing? Trading on the slim chance that this gorgeous older man is going to take the slightest interest in him? Kanae isn't even sure if Haruto likes men, for god's sake. Calm down, he tells himself. ]
I have beer and tea at home, [ Kanae says eventually. ] Or we can pick something else up at the conbini on the way.
no subject
No, [ he says, in that same open honesty that mirrors the way his eyes can't help but trace over kanae's face, ] your features are — bolder.
[ still soft, in all the ways femininity can be, but not at all understated. quiet, yes, but in the way a whisper is, right up against your ear. ]
I think... [ and here, at least, where words can sometimes fail to make his intentions clear, his actions might compensate; emboldened by kanae's compliment, he reaches up across the middle seat, brushing some of kanae's fringe aside to tuck what he can of it behind an ear. ] If you ever pulled your hair back, I don't know how anyone could look away.
[ he does drop that hand, of course, because if nothing else he is a good boy. desperate though he may be, he isn't one to push...
but that hand does linger along the way, featherlight fingertips that traces the shell of an ear and the slope of a neck before finding its way back down to his lap, where his thumb tucks in to hold the heat radiating off those fingertips like something precious. ]
I'm fine with beer or tea.
[ whatever gets them alone faster. ]
no subject
It takes a second longer for Kanae to find his voice, to say, ] Okay, [ before he has to look away or risk leaning over to press his mouth to Haruto's. Still, Kanae's hand remains on the middle seat between them, and his ears flush a little pink in the darkness of the taxi.
Fortunately, the remainder of the trip is short. The cab pulls up in front of Kanae's apartment building and he hustles to pay the fare, then slips out onto the sidewalk and holds the door for Haruto. Now that his mind has been made up, the distance between them feels unbearable, and it takes all of Kanae's self-restraint to hold himself back as he shoulders his guitar case and leads the way toward the elevators. ]
The apartment is my brother's, [ Kanae says once the doors slide closed. It's a distraction for them both, from the way his pinky overlaps with Haruto's where they're both holding onto the elevator railing. ] He bought it before he got married. It's near the salon, so he crashes here sometimes when he has to work late.
[ He glances over at Haruto and finds himself—frustrated, almost, by the fact that he's equally shockingly gorgeous under the harsh fluorescent lighting overhead. ]
