I'm your biggest fan

SECRET ADMIRER meme

You're in love with them, but they don't know it and you have no real intention of changing this. Whether it's because you don't want to admit anything to yourself, can't handle rejection, don't think you're good enough, or have no real experience with this kind of thing, your lips are sealed...for now. And maybe forever, if you're contented to love them from afar.

That is, if the object of your affection doesn't figure you out first.

HOW TO PLAY

Comment with your character, preferences, and whether they'd be the admirer or the admired.

RNG it or not.

PROMPTS

Meeting: How do you meet? Is it love at first sight?
Falling: You learn to love them, even if you never have before.
From Afar: You're not too close to them - they may not know you at all - but you still admire them. Whether "afar" means something like a different school, a different team, or a different world or walk of life is up to you.
Notice Me: You actually do want to be noticed. Please, senpai!~
Right in Front of You: The two of you are friends or allies, yet you're hiding your emotions in plain sight.
Denial: You? Love? No! Especially not with them...no, you weren't looking at them!
Jealousy: They don't know you're attracted to them, so you shouldn't feel mad when they're getting attention from others.
Too Shy Shy: The words just won't come out. Besides, you're too flustered by their presence in general.
Don't Deserve Them: You wouldn't want to subject them to you, anyway. They're too good.
Favors: Your love may not be known; still, you can do things for them or get them gifts, and they'll wonder who's doing all this. Their happiness is all you want, not their recognition.
Bad at This: So, about all those gifts or favors? You're not the sort to know about kindness and because of this, your shows of affection tend to be you offing their rivals or giving them stolen items.
Adorkable: You're awkward but it's endearing!
Never Expect the Quiet Ones: You barely speak, much less show how you feel. How could they know what you really think?
Lash Out: It's frustrating to have a crush you can't act on, so you've decided to act out...towards the one you love, perhaps to push them away.
Admission: Finally, you've decided to admit what you've felt all along.
Outed: Someone else has told your secret.
Caught: Maybe you were caught looking at them too much, speaking about your love out loud, or leaving them a gift. No matter what, the jig is up.
Content with Secrecy: You can admire them without saying a word. You're not conflicted in the least with living this life!
Requited: No more harboring secrets, as your feelings are returned.
Unrequited: ....ouch. Just ouch.

Either/or.

[[ Feldt is definitely the admirer. But I'm happy to swap. ]]

((I just started watching Gundam 00 and Feldt is adorable, I'd love to play with her if you're interested? I have Dick here or any of my other boys listed here, also I have Duo from Gundam Wing?))

[[ It's up to you, I'm fine with anyone! Did you want Feldt to be the admirer? ]]

[[Well Dick'll do since I'm logged in, and he's an impressive sort of boy even if I do say so myself ha. It might work best if she is but you're welcome to switch it around if you like?
I can just sort of smoosh him into the Gundam 00 universe if that works for you, it's got enough similarities to make it work. If you're happy with that I can start something?]]

[[ Okay, I can do her admire the Dick. If you could do a starter with him smooshed into 00 that would be awesome! ]]

[While Celestial Being is carrying out its missions all over the world, Dick Grayson is working a little closer to home. Personally, he's cautiously optimistic about their efforts to stamp out wars, and he has to admit that their actions are not entirely dissimilar to his own - just on a much, much larger scale.

Whether he approves of their actions or not, they don't really do anything about the kind of violence committed on a more personal basis, and that's where Nightwing comes in. By day he might be following in Bruce's footsteps as the playboy heir to Wayne enterprises, but now evening's fallen and he's crouched on a rooftop in his uniform, stretching casually while he keeps an eye out for this evening's... entertainment.

His first 'job' practically walks in under his nose, a young woman walking alone is set upon by a group of robbers, waving their knives and demanding her purse. Dick doesn't even hesitate, dropping into the alleyway, freefalling for a moment before shooting out his grapple and slowing his descent enough to land casually between the men and their victim.]

Evening gentlemen, nice night for it, isn't it?

[One of the men at the back turns and runs as soon as he appears. He might not be 'the bat' but he can still be pretty intimidating when he wants to be. The other two charge at him, but he's had years of training and they're just desperate, so the fight is short and a little bit ugly, resulting in the two of them unarmed and unconscious]

[The men had appeared out of nowhere. Although, their sudden appearance was a surprise it hadn't frightened Feldt in the slightest. Calmly she raised her hands, showing them she was willing to hear their demands.]

Purse?

[Feldt asked a little confused, before she remembered what a actually purse was. Before she had a chance to inform them, they had picked a penny-less target, a shadowed figure dropped in front of her.

While the situation was something that would be frightening to everyone else, Feldt couldn't help but stay calm. Even when the two remaining men launched themselves at the new stranger.

Still, she didn't want the man that had obviously come to her rescue get hurt. As the girl took a step back she said]

Lookout-

[He flashed a grin over his shoulder at her warning before taking the two men out with ease. After he was done, he turned back to her. She didn't seem as scared as a lot of people usually did when they'd been attacked, and he had to admire that. He smiled, running a hand through his hair as he glanced over her, checking for injuries. He didn't think they'd had a chance to get her, but it was better to make sure.]

Are you okay?

[His smile had taken her by suprise. Feldt's cheeks flushed a little, as his attitude reminded her of one of the Meisters she worked with.

Silently the gril watched as he quickly overpowered the men. Impressed by his skills, Feldt wanted to cheer, but simply kept it all inside.]

Yes. Thank you.

[Feldt's tone still almost emotionless. She tried to sound as grateful as she was, but couldn't shift her tone as much as she had wanted.

To show a little more gratitude to her savior, Feldt stepped forward, returning the question.]

Were you hurt, Mr...?

Good

[If he's put off by her tone he doesn't show it, and honestly he can understand it, he can easily put it down to being in shock]

Nightwing. I'm fine, thank you for asking.

[And there's that grin again. There's something slightly flirtatious about it, but then Dick could probably come across as flirtatious by standing still and not saying anything]

[With a slight bow, Feldt thanked him again.

It wasn't everyday someone fell from the sky, leaving Feldt a little curious about this Nightwing character.]

Do you normally help people like this?

[It had been a quiet night and he didn't feel the need to rush off, so he leant casually against the wall, content to stay and answer her questions]

all the time, it's sort of what I do. The police do their best but there's a lot of criminals around who like to hurt people, I like to... discourage them.

[His brief description of his hobby sounded similar to her own duty, albeit with a few differences. In her experience, true authorities never liked outside interference, even if it was done with the best intentions.

Still, Feldt wanted to know more.]

Is it difficult to discourage them?

[He appreciated her questions, it was nice when people actually seemed interested in him and his work]

It can be, but i don't intend to give up until everybody's safe. Even if it takes me forever.

[They definitely had more in common than she first thought. The world needed more people like this.

With a small smile she continued.]

Hopefully it wont take forever.

Well I certainly hope not, i'd like to enjoy crime-free streets when i'm still young and handsome.

[He winked at her, grinning]

[Is he flirting? Feldt thought, suddenly hiding her face as she felt it grow warm.

Still wanting to to talk to Nightwing, she tried to ask another question, but couldn't find anything to say.]

[She was sort of adorable when she was embarrassed, and he could tell she didn't want him to leave just yet, so he decided to linger a little longer]

How rude of me, i never asked your name.

M-my name?

[She stuttered nervously. Her name wasn't something she actively told people. However, in this instance Feldt saw no harm in it.

Embarrassed the girl almost whispered her name]

Feldt. Feldt Grace...

Feldt. [he repeated it thoughtfully, then flashed her a winning smile]

What a pretty name. You been in the city long, Feldt?

[With a small shake of her head she said]

N-no.

[Feldt didn't want to admit she was smitten with Nightwing. Her unintentional act of being shy didn't help.]

That's a pity, i promise it's a lot nicer than these guys [he nudges one of the still-unconscious muggers with his foot] make it seem. Have you moved here or are you just visiting?

... visiting.

[Fidgeting, she still kept her eyes to the ground.

That wasn't a lie, but it wasn't the truth either.]

Well that sucks, I was hoping I'd be able to look out for your pretty face regularly

[Oh you charmer]

[She only managed to make an uncomfortable noise. Why did he have to continue flirting. Without thinking she blurted out.]

I-I'll be here for a few m-more days...

Oh? Well that's good, maybe I'll see you around

[He grinned charmingly]

I'll look out for you

O-okay.

[Still unable to look at him she just nodded.]

You don't need to be shy, you know...

[he suddenly realised something and looked rueful]

Unless I'm bothering you?

No, no, no, no!

[Still bright red, she looked up. Talking to people wasn't a strength of Feldt's. And it didn't help she was already falling for the guy.]

I-it's just...

[She trailed off. Not sure what to say.]

Well good, I'd hate to think I was bothering you.

[he suddenly realised another possibility]

Oh, wait, were you going somewhere? Would you like an escort?

[Still wanting to spend a little more time with him, Feldt wasn't about to say no to having an escort. Even though her destination was only a few blocks away.]

Please. My hotel isn't far.

[He bowed dramatically and offered her his arm with a grin]

Then may I accompany you, my lady?

[Too embarrassed by his act, she nodded taking his arm.

Why did he do that.]

[As they started walking, he leaned in to her slightly and whispered conspiratorially]

It's okay, you don't actually have to take my arm the whole way if you don't want to.

[He doesn't want to make her uncomfortable after all]

[It was tempting to let his arm go, but Feldt tightened her grip just a little.

While she may have been embarrassed, that didn't stop her from secretly enjoying it.

With the slightest shake of her head she said.]

No. I like holding your arm.

Well that's good, because I'm rather enjoying having you on my arm.

[Yep, there he goes with another wink]

[He did it again.

Feeling her face flush again, Feldt ducked her head down trying to hide it.

Change the subject, change the subject.]

I like your mask...

Oh, thanks

[He grinned, appreciating her adorable shyness as well as the compliment]

I rather like it, i always thought it made me look dashing.

[Either one, or both!]

Basic info.

Pick an age or leave it to me! He's absolutely no good for being the admirer because it wouldn't be a secret.

[Can go either way feasibly, though he's more likely to be the admired because c'mon. Who isn't at least a little in love with Haurchefant.

Also seriously have you seen Edmont du Fortemps is he Haurchefant's dad he sure doesn't look it.]

[ Either role. OOC would love cross canon shenanigans, or even other Marvel muses. Cast-mates are awesome as well. ]

[ ooc: yandere is also totally an option ]

[Either role would suit him fine! m/m and m/f are equally awesome]

[Either role!]

(She can be either the admired or the admirer, though I have a small preference toward her being the admirer. Which will probably involve her being unintentionally creepy stalker esque. So, fair warning there.)

[Thor was used to having eyes on him most of the time while wandering around Midgard. While the Avengers were more or less used to his presence by now, the general population still gawked and pointed at the alien strolling amongst them as if he belonged there just as much as they did. Nonetheless, stares were easy to ignore for someone who had once been the crown prince of an entire realm.

He didn't expect to feel someone watching him while he sat down for breakfast in the Avengers Tower, however. Tony had hosted a party the previous evening and Thor was one of the few feeling well enough to awaken so early and bother preparing something to eat. The kitchen should be quiet and empty save for himself... but no, someone was clearly there.

How odd.

Perhaps he was imagining it. Nobody seemed to be there when he glanced over his shoulder, though he admittedly didn't bother with a thorough investigation. The food before him was much too interesting, so he dug in after shrugging off the feeling of being watched. Perhaps if someone was there they would make themselves known if he wasn't actively checking the doorway.]

[She hadn't slept.

Being in the home of Tony Stark made her uneasy. Even though he hadn't actually been responsible for the loss of her parents, the name would forever be connected to that. So, she hadn't drank much, had kept away from the majority of the festivities.

She'd heard the word 'goth' a few times. Some of the younger people. The older used the word 'antisocial.'

So, she was awake when several others weren't.

This man interested her. He was different from the others. 'Asgardian,' the files had said. They'd been trained to fight aliens, machines, and everything else. So, she moved forward, almost silently.

Then, she asked a question, calmly:]

What are you eating?

[Since Thor had been anticipating someone's arrival, he wasn't surprised by the sound of footsteps in the kitchen and a voice addressing him. He was somewhat surprised that it was Wanda, but perhaps he shouldn't have been. Although Thor was very involved in the party, he wasn't oblivious to her avoidance of the festivities.]

Pancakes, bacon and eggs.

[He placed the fork down for a moment so as not to be rude by talking while eating. Mortals seemed to be much more strict about that particular rule of etiquette.]

I hadn't expected to see anybody else up this early. Would you care to join me? I prepared plenty, so help yourself.

[The rest of the food was placed on one of the many kitchen counters. Considering Thor hadn't been one to cook much in his life, he'd gotten quite good at preparing breakfast foods at least.]

There's so much.

[It's strange to her, to see so much food. Even with Strucker, when there was enough to eat to be full, there was never excess. Just a tray with a meal that she could eat all of. But to see food just sitting out, more than anyone could ever eat.

Quietly, she picked a plate and began to put a few bits of each.]

[I can play either role, though Mamoru will probably be super nervous as an admirer because he's scared to break his promise. but he'd be awkward if someone liked him, too. This boy becomes a wreck in any vaguely romantic situation, especially if he's not aware at first!]

Edited 2015-05-30 19:52 (UTC)

[either or, crosscanon or canonmates!]

[ Either works for me. No 14 or 20 please! ]

[ Early winter really is one of her favorite times of year. Even though the weather is much colder and nature's colors have become much more muted there are lots of good things about the season that can't be appreciated as easily in autumn, summer, or spring. The crisp bite in the air is actually sort of refreshing and helps her clear her thoughts. People seem more excited because they know that the holidays are just around the corner. The first snow fall is also something she's looking forward to.

She's out early to do some holiday shopping, bundled up in coat, scarf, and gloves. Having received a surprise bonus for her extra efforts at work she'd in Kyoto in search of something specific when a bright splash of familiar color catches her eye.

It's far more complicated than it should be. For someone as earnestly straight forward as her the hang up in this situation lies more in her obliviousness to her own feelings than anything else. At the very least she might have worked up the courage to make a decision- possibly confessed for better or worse by now.

But no, so far as Tohru is aware her feelings of admiration aren't of any sort of romantic persuasion.

They don't attend the same school. They don't share mutual friends, though she has met some of his classmates and one of his teammates. Still the only reason they'd met directly at all was by chance, a small (harmless) accidental run in at one of the buildings his family owned. She'd been working her part time job and he happened to be stopping by. She didn't know why, and it was neither her business nor her place to ask, but right from the start there had been something about him that caught her attention and drew in her curiosity.

It's actually by chance that she runs into him now as well, a very happy coincidence so far as she's concerned. There's no hesitation in her approach, a cheerful smile matched by a polite greeting. ]

Aa, Seijuurou-san, good morning! This is such a wonderful surprise seeing you today.

[ Akashi's expression gentles the moment he hears Tohru's voice. ]

Good morning, Honda-san, and likewise.

[ Chance does have a habit of bringing them together and he's grateful for it; it might be a cold day, but he feels as if he could easily wrap himself up in the warmth of her smile and never feel the chill.

Not that he trusts only to luck. He's made a number of excuses to himself of late to be where he can happen to cross her path. Outside of a few close friends, he's used to people finding him intimidating or hard to approach, yet from the beginning Tohru's always spoken to him cheerfully and earnestly, unbothered by his wealth or status or any of the other impediments that keep him from easily connecting to others.

Perhaps it's no wonder then that he's slowly and quietly fallen in love with her over the time of their acquaintance.

What is surprising, even to himself, is that someone who has little difficulty overcoming every other challenge life presents him with finds the prospect of confessing his feelings so daunting. ]

Shopping for the holidays, I take it?

[ It's that softening of his expression that she notices first, and it warms her up inside just as quickly. At his return greeting for a moment her smile warms further, hinting at a deeper fondness unbeknownst to her.

She was just about to answer his question when she remembered, rather abruptly, that he was the reason she'd come here to shop for.

The timing of this recollection was a bit unfortunate (or comical depending on your point of view) as she's never been good at hiding this sort of thing. Keeping it a surprise is important though, and she's suddenly very aware of the pressure to do so.

She... might be getting a little frazzled and visibly flustered making it painfully apparent that she'd just had some significant realization.

Which in Tohru terms means gradually turning into more and more of a spazz... oh dear ]

U-un! That's right! Before you know it Christmas will be here, and I don't want to be caught off guard at the last minute!

[ Not to mention she isn't sure if she'll find just the right gift today and even if she isn't herself aware of the reason why she knows that this gift needs to be something really special. ]

Edited 2015-06-02 07:15 (UTC)

[ His smile stays in place, because she's simply too cute when she becomes so excitable. He's generous enough not to fluster her further by pointing it out, simply continuing the conversation as if she hadn't reacted in that manner at all. ]

Quite so. It seems we have the same idea, as I'm here to buy a few things as well.

[ One of them being a present for Tohru, which presents him with somewhat of a challenge. Money's no object, of course; if she wanted it he would give her the world, but at the same time, he doesn't wish to give the impression of attempting to buy her affection. And knowing her, she probably would want for something more modest regardless, even if he's not sure exactly what that would be...

A way of finding out occurs to him. ]

...Ah, I realize you have your own shopping to do, but I wonder if you could possibly assist me with mine. There's a friend of mine that I wish to buy a present for, but as I'm unfamiliar with girls' tastes I'm having some difficulty deciding on something that she would like.

[ He's sorely tempted to offer his hand to her as encouragement to take him up on his proposal for what really could almost be considered a date, but instead he just burrows them into his coat's pockets. ]

I'll treat you to lunch in exchange, of course. So, will you spend some of your morning with me, Honda-san?

[ There's a lot in that offer to dissect, starting from the request to the offer for lunch, it's so neatly packaged that even though she'd customarily insist on paying for her own meal so as not to trouble him there's really no way to do so without seeming rude, in her eyes, so even though the idea clearly flusters her a bit she focuses on the first and last part for now instead.

And regarding that: You would honestly think that he'd just asked her to marry him by how touched and excited she looks. Having her opinion valued highly enough to warrant asking for it while shopping for his friends apparently means a lot to her~~???~~ if her reaction is an indicator. ]

Un! Of course! I would be happy to help if you think that I can, and it would be wonderful to spend some time together.

[ As for picking up his gift, well, she'll figure that out... Surely she can manage to be a little stealthy when it counts? It's for the sake of not spoiling his surprise, so she'll manage something. ] Do you know what types of things they normally enjoy doing?

Edited 2015-05-31 03:52 (UTC)

(ooc: Either is fine! Bear in mind Tohru can be a bit oblivious to the depth of her own feelings, though. Ha ha... Also no #7, #14, or #20 )

Edited 2015-05-31 13:30 (UTC)

[ooc: Totally fine with either role, please specify how gory you like your crushes ;)]
