listen to your heart 😌

"Can You Handle Your Emotions?"
Emotions are... eh. We all have them, whether we want to or not. Some people have control over their emotions, and some people let their emotions control them. Where does your character fall on this spectrum? More importantly, what's their relationship with their emotions like? Do they bury everything deep, deep down inside, or are they the first one to cry over a sappy movie? Do they even know how they feel about what's going on inside? Pretty meta stuff.
  • No blank top-levels.
  • Instead, characters are to respond to the proposed question: can you handle your emotions? / are you in touch with your feelings?
  • Get deep. Look within. Hear, think feel... or don't.

[That was a calm and calculated maneuver.]

Only when it suits me.

[sure it was]

And you never act impulsively because of it?

Perhaps when I was younger.

You remain rather young, my love.

And since then you’ve been entirely in control.

Are you in touch with your emotions then? To have such mastery over them

And how are you feeling now?

Quite fine, actually.

[He takes her hand, raising it to his lips to kiss the back of.]

Better now that you are here.

[anger issues or not, he is always sweet with her.]

Have you missed me terribly?

[she drifts right up to him, arms wrapping around his middle]

I should properly say hello then.

I agree, you should.

You are always wonderful to me.
