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.

ooc: So, how would you feel about a few thousand years old alien with Issues? By which I mean he's melodramatic and kind of likes to pretend he's evil but he's really not, and kind of seriously just needs to be appreciated. Otherwise... likes monsters too much. Wears really nice suits. Inveterate flirt. Addicted to caffeine. Talks a lot about darkness.

Basically this might be a terrible idea, but also she might be patient enough to deal with him and coax out some of the good side.

Reasonable options: 2, 3, 6, 7 (his entire life is a bad relationship), 10-12, 15-20

(ooc: i'm not familiar with the character, but i'm fine with giving it a try! as long as he's not pretending he's evil by actually hurting people, euphie's more than likely to see the goodness in him. feel free to pick whatever sounds most interesting to you, though i'd prefer to avoid 12. )

(ooc: works for me! I'll toss up a starter later when I'm at my computer)

(ooc: Switched accounts for a more workable canon point; info in a PM if you're still interested. This will just be a really generic starter so feel free to do whatever with it.)

After everything that happened, Juggler no longer wanted to be anywhere near Gai, Amate, Ultramen, Earth. Or at the very least, not that Earth. He spends a while wandering before he settles in another dimension. A different Earth. A different war. He stays out of it, mostly. It's not his fight; he's not sure anything is anymore.

Or at least, that was the plan. Not getting involved. Not getting attached. But yet, here he is with a girl he can't seem to keep himself away from.
