The Date Meme


THE DATE MEME

Here's how it works!

1. Comment to this post with your character. List the character's name, series, and any preferences you might have in the subject.
2. Using the RNG, pick from one of each of the two categories below. (Or if you'd rather pick them yourself, feel free to do that instead!)
3. The two of you are now on a date! The first list is where you took your date. The second list is your current relationship.
4. Have fun!


Locations

1. Restaurant. What better way to spend some romantic time than over food? Maybe you're at the fancy restaurant in town, or maybe you just couldn't afford anything nice, so you're at the nearest diner. Or maybe somewhere in between?

2. Games. The two of you are playing a game somewhere! You could be at a bowling alley, an arcade, a miniature golf course...the possibilities here are countless.

3. The Park. Of course, Mother Nature can provide an excellent atmosphere for romantic bonding! Perhaps you're taking a leisurely stroll through the lush grounds, or maybe you've laid out a blanket somewhere so the two of you could have a picnic.

4. Movie Theater. Or maybe the two of you are sitting next to each other in a dark room, sharing a bucket of popcorn while you're watching the latest film. Did you opt for a horror flick to keep your significant other latched to your arm -- or for you to latch to theirs -- or perhaps something they enjoy, like a sappy romance film or a cheesy action flick? Or maybe you compromised and went to see a sweet romantic comedy.

5. Skating. It's always nice to go skating, right? Are you at a roller skating rink, or did you find a frozen lake and decide to go ice skating? Which one of you needs help (you know at least one of you does)?

6. Beach. Ahh, the beach! Go ahead and set up camp wherever you like! Or if you don't watn to lay down and catch a tan, you can go swimming, or take a walk along the shore! Or if you don't want getting sand on your feet or in your shoes, go hit up the boardwalk!

7. Sunday Drive. Sometimes you don't really have a destination in mind. Sometimes you just want to drive and enjoy the scenery. Well, here's your chance to do that!

8. Amusement Park. There's plenty to do here! Take your date on the Ferris wheel, or the tunnel of love...or something more thrilling, like a roller coaster! Walk around with cotton candy!

9. Dance/Ball. School dance? Prom? Business gala? Whatever it is, you're there, and you've got a date.

10. Wild Card. Your choice! Feel free to pick something that's not here.



Relationships

1. Blind Date. You had no idea who you were going out with until you arrived! Was it a complete stranger, or did it turn out to be someone you knew?

2. First Date. You finally worked up the courage to ask this person out, and they agreed! How awkward is this going to end up?

3. Steady. You guys have been going out for a while. This is just another one of many dates.

4. Proposing. This isn't just any date for you. You've brought your significant other out somewhere to propose to them! Make sure to warm them up for the main event!

5. Married. You're not just dating, you're a married couple! Whether this is a special occasion or you just decided to break from your everyday life, the two of you are using this as an opportunity to remind each other just how much you love one another.

6. Wild Card. Your choice! Feel free to pick something that's not here.

-she chuckles and press another kiss to the back of his neck. She even gave in and wore a scarf that could billow a little behind her. Usually, she was the one zipping around in fast cars yet there was something sweet and wonderful about letting Steve drive-

[Steve smiled again. He also liked these drives because they were a great stress relief. Natasha needed them most, even if she would never admit, but Steve was still worried.]

Next time let's stay for more than just one afternoon. [He suggested over the noise of the bike.]

[personal profile] geniusnotclever 2012-09-13 07:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Turn left at the fork!

[she smiled against him. They need a weekend to themselves. And she had reserved a cabin just for them.]

[personal profile] beagoodman 2012-09-13 07:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[Steve raised an eyebrow at that, but didn't question Natasha and did that turn.]

Why are we you planning? [He asked, smiling a little.]

[personal profile] geniusnotclever 2012-09-13 08:43 pm (UTC)(link)
A surprise.

-she squeezes him gently-

Know how we haven't been cashing in our vacation time?

[personal profile] beagoodman 2012-09-13 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
((ooc: *you.... Gah, sorry. XD))

You'd planned us something? [Steve asks a bit hurt that Natasha didn't ask him about the vacation they supposed to go on together. But he figured that's the was she was rolling. Always. No exceptions.]

[personal profile] geniusnotclever 2012-09-13 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
..I can still cancel it.

-she was used to doing things and not needing the approval of others. Of all things, that was the biggest adjustment she had to make for Steve-

[personal profile] beagoodman 2012-09-16 09:00 am (UTC)(link)
Oh no, we might as well check it out, since you got the trouble to set it up. [Steve shakes his head. He knew how Natasha was, he knew who he was marrying to, but the process of molding their two personalities and views on the world together was a very slow process.] I wanted to take some days out too, so you should have really talked to me about it.

[personal profile] geniusnotclever 2012-09-16 03:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I wanted to surprise you. But we can just...head home if you don't wanna. I could call up Pepper. Let her use the cabin.

-her arms tighten a little around Steve. She doesn't know how to handle herself around him sometimes; he made her lose her verbal footing and in all honesty....he made her a better person and she didn't want to lose that-

[personal profile] beagoodman 2012-09-16 03:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[Steve sighed, smiling ever so slightly at their stupid fight right now.]

Tell me which way should I go. [He said at last, turning his head to the side just for a moment.] I didn't want to ruin your surprise, I'm sorry.

[personal profile] geniusnotclever 2012-09-16 03:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Left at the fork and keep going. It'll take you right into the private driveway.

-another squeeze-

I'm sorry too. Should've asked if you wanted to take time off in the first place.

[personal profile] beagoodman 2012-09-16 04:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Roger. [Steve said and gave some speed.] You know I always do with you, Nat, and it's not about that. It's about talking to me. Communicating, like a good team.

[personal profile] geniusnotclever 2012-09-16 04:14 pm (UTC)(link)
-she scoots closer and communicates exactly what she'd like to use this vacation time for. In explicit detail. By murmuring every single moment of it in his ear-

[personal profile] beagoodman 2012-09-16 04:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh Lord-- [Steve only could manage that much at Natasha's 'communication'. His grip tightens on the handle.] G-good thing we're thinking about the same things then. [He says, clearing his throat.]

This is it? [Steve asks as they arrive to the place Natasha has described. Steve had to admit, it really looked lovely.]

[personal profile] geniusnotclever 2012-09-16 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Glad to see we're on the same page.

-When she sees the cabin roll into view, she beams-

That's the place.
