It's a date!

[sneaks]

DATING MEME

Dating is, when you think about, really weird. It's a totally different thing for different people. Some are friends for years before they date; others start dating on the same day they met. Sometimes, there's a lot mushy stuff involved; other times, the couple acts just like friends. None of this is necessarily right or wrong.

Whatever it is, your character and the character you reply to are now dating. How? That's up to you. Whether it be awkward or not, the relationship will be uniquely theirs.

How to Play
-Comment with your character and preferences.
-Reply to others.
-Have fun.

Prompts

1. Best Friends to More: Oh, wow, you've been this person's friend forever! But then you realize you have feelings for them, and they for you. Will things change when you change your status?
2. The Sudden Decision: Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy, but here I am, date me maybe?
3. Confession: You've had feelings for this person for, like, ages, and you want to ask them to date you. Or maybe the confession just slips out...
4. Hate Date: You really don't like this person; actually, you hate them. But you don't want them to be with anyone else!
5. I Guess We're Dating: Huh. We are dating, aren't we? Everyone else knew before us...
6. Slow Decision: For the more mature and seasoned, they might fall into something sweet without needing to rush.
7. Been Burned Before: One of you has had a bad relationship, and now both of you have to bear that brunt if you want to date now.
8. Innocence: This is your first real relationship, so you have to figure it out together. That's harder than it looks.
9. Courting: You're from an old-fashioned world or are old-fashioned yourself, so it's courting, not dating. Still, maybe you can sneak away from the chaperon.
10. First Date: Your first true date. What's it like? What would happen if...I don't know...it went bad?
11. First Kiss: Of course.
12. First Time: Together or in general.
13. The Perfect Couple: The couple that never argues and is more like best friends than a couple.
14. The Not-So-Perfect Couple: Ugh, these guys always argue and seem to despise each other. Why are they even together?
15. Comfortable: You can do anything around or in front of your honey.
16. Not Cut Out for Dating: One of you is anti-social, a jerk, a stoic badass, whatever. You're not dating material...yet here you are.
17. Getting on Each Others' Nerves: Spending too much time together can get even the most patient people annoyed with the person they're dating.
18. Know What You Like: It's almost like they can read your mind, whether it be in the kitchen, at the store, or in the bedroom.
19. Trouble in Paradise: Maybe it's external factors, or perhaps internal, but whatever the case may be, things aren't looking so sunny.
20. Test the Strength: Someone else has an obvious crush on the person you're dating. What do you do?
21. Pregnancy Scare: Hey, it happens. So, how do you feel when the period turns up missing?
22. Getting Serious: Things are getting way deep with this person. They may be the one...or maybe they think they are, while you're not too sure.
23. Old Hat: This relationship is dull. Can you get back the spark?
24. End It: You don't want to date them anymore. You want to see other people.
25. Taking It to the Next Level: You don't want to date them anymore. You want to marry them.
26. FREE SPACE

Rey | Star Wars

[[ota but she's unused to dating, so please forgive any gaffs]]

3/8/etc.

[gorramgirl]

[There are many things River knows. How to kill someone and make it look like an accident. How to take apart weapons without looking. How to dance in toe shoes without hurting herself. How to not ruin friendships by accidentally bringing up something she read in the other person's mind.

How to deal with people in any way that verges on the romantic? Not hardly.

It's confusing, because she knows she likes Rey. They get along well, and Rey doesn't seem frightened of her like most of her friends still occasionally do. She knows how most people act when they like someone. She knows how to figure out what most people like. She knows the traditions.

She's not sure if it will do anything, but she sits down beside Rey with a handful of flowers, which may or may not have been picked with permission.]

These are for you.

[girlandherstaff]

[River made a lot of sense to Rey where other people didn't. There was something simpe about being in her company, something that came naturally that didn't seem to come around other people and it was a something that Rey was glad of. Her company was something that Rey enjoyed having.]

[She liked River, that was the simplest way to put it.]

[So when River came with a handful a flowers - which wasn't her usual behaviour - Rey did blink a little. She'd rarely seen flowers before, and she looked at them with a sesne of caution as well as admiration for all the colours]

Thank you, they're ... lovely.
