Dating

The 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

[They had been going out for a few months now. While it is no longer a secret among their friends, Rei would rather keep things low-key for both their sake. Haru, being as low-key as he is already, it works out. Once summer break had hit, they decided to spend the day hiking up a mountain. It's hot, but not unpleasantly so especially with good company. They seem to be the only company as the trail has been empty otherwise.

Because of that, Rei feels safe enough to casually reach over and take Haru's hand to his as they walk up the steep trail. This terrain is a bit rough at first, but from what he has researched, the waterfall that he recalls Haru talking about should be another mile or two away.]


How are you holding up, Haruka-senpai?

[ sirius isn't entirely sure that he's ever been on a date. a proper one, at least. he's gone places with people he's been involved with, but he never asked anyone on a date, it was never really clearly defined. they probably were dates, but sirius hadn't really thought it through.

this, though, is different. he went ahead and called it a date, and it's not just anyone, it's remus, and oh merlin, sirius is nervous, and he's never been nervous about this sort of thing in his life.

by the time they've arrived in hogsmeade, though, his anxious chatter has died down, and sirius has reminded himself that this is moony. one of his very best mates. he's got nothing at all to be nervous about. so he flashes a toothy grin, snow crunching underfoot as they turn onto the main thoroughfare, and sirius screws up his courage enough to thread his fingers through remus', doing his very best to make it seem smooth and casual. ]


So, where to?

[He's been trying to act normal. Really, he has. There's something about staring down a first date that makes 'normal' quite a difficult state to achieve, however, and the fact that this particular first date is with ones of his very best mates makes it all the harder for him to be anything but nervous. Well, nervous and giddy.

After spending most of the week barely able to sleep or focus in lesson, Remus had spent about an hour and a half trying on every jumper he owns and determining that every last one of them is complete rubbish. Not that he's ever cared about what he wears before, but for some reason it seemed to be of the utmost importance today. He'd been late to meet Sirius as a result, after finally opting for a cardigan that Sirius had once told him didn't look half bad and then promptly realizing that he's liable to have his cloak on the whole time anyway.

It's not until they reach Hogsmeade and Sirius levels him with an entirely unfair disarming smile that the nerves really set in. Sirius takes his hand – right there, in the middle of the lane for all to see – and Remus finds himself completely tongue-tied.]


Er. [He stares at their entwined fingers, tightening his grip as though holding onto a lifeline and trying desperately to think of someplace that isn't entirely boring. Sirius certainly isn't the type to while away a perfectly good Saturday in Tomes and Scrolls.] Wherever you want to go is fine.

[ moony, all of your jumpers are just fine, you goose. he's seen every single one of them so many times he's probably memorized every loose thread and tea stain.

he catches that little jolt, though, the way remus' eyes fall right down to their hands, and he wonders if maybe he's gone too far - not that there's anything scandalous about holding hands, but they are in public, and he's got no idea how remus feels about that. but then, they snogged hot and heavy in the middle of the common room, and he'd only been mildly concerned with that, so.

remus' grip tightens after a moment, though, so sirius forgets the thought entirely, and sweeps his gaze up the path again, squinting thoughtfully. ]


Hmm.. [ he knows you want that bookshop, moony, but that's gonna wait. with a tug to remus' hand, he starts down the street. ] Well, you hungry yet? Or do you want to shop first and eat later?
