It's only natural to long for a perfect love story. Few things feel as fulfilling as a relationship where the other person will always listen to you, sex is always good and happiness always seems to be one word away.

But it's not so simple in your case, is it? Because no matter how nice and happy your relationship is, the truth is that nobody else wants it to continue. Either you come from rival factions or pursue a relationship that is taboo or illegal, but this little bubble of happiness you're currently sharing would infuriate anyone who might find out about it.

That's all right, though, isn't it? As long as you have each other, you can make this meeting wonderful regardless of what everyone else thinks.

Post your character and their basic information to the meme. Feel free to either set a scenario or leave your comment blank and open for one.
Your character and the commenter are now engaged in a very bad romance! This is their first meeting after a long while, so sparks are definitely going to fly.
But what about the details of their relationship? For that, you can either decide on your own or head to Random.ORG and roll for one of the following options! First, roll for the kind of relationships they have:

1. Keeping it in the Family: It's not unusual for siblings to love each other, or for parents to love their children. What's unusual is when you love each other too much, even if you have the excuse of not being related by blood.

2. Pay for Play: Your relationship wasn't built on love. It might be that one of you needed money and the other was willing to pay for a pretty face and a few wild nighs. It can be that one of you has something that allows them to blackmail the other into being their obedient toy. Whichever the case, there came a point where this relationship became too important for your lives to let go.

3. Rival factions: You might be coming from families that have been at each other's throats for generations, two rival corporations or two kingdoms at war. Or it might be the law that keeps you apart; a cop and a criminal is hardly a decent pair, after all. Whichever the case, you must be stealthy about this or the wrath of both your sides will fall upon you.

4. Balance of Power: One of you is enjoying a very different social standing from another. It might be that one of you is richer than rich and another is poorer than poor. Or it could be that one lover's standing is far above the other's, like that of a master and a servant or a soldier and a general. Of course, nobody expects this to work out. Even fewer would approve of it.

5. A Pair of Cheaters: One or both of you are stuck in another relationship, either out of convenience or because of love that cooled a long time ago. You know what you're doing is wrong and hurtful, but it's too late to stop. This relationship is the only thing that gets you off anymore.

6. Immoral and Illegal: Your relationship isn't just wrong, it might get you into serious trouble. Whether you are a teacher flirting with their student or a nun breaking her vow of celibacy to be seduced by a handsome friend, the slightest hint of being discovered will ruin your life forever. Problem is, you're far too involved to stop.

7. Toxic Relationship: One of you is clearly bad for each other. They might be a delinquent, a criminal or something else, but the number of bad habits they're bringing into your life is ridiculous. You should be stopping. Now, if only you wouldn't enjoy the chaos they're bringing into your life so much.

8. Stockholm Syndrome: It's not a relationship at all. One of you is keeping the other against their will; either as a political prisoner, a kidnapping victim waiting for a ransom or plain an unwilling toy. At some point, the relationship reached the point where the lines became blurred and you're no longer sure if you want to be rescued from this supposed hell.

Done choosing? Good. Now roll the numbers again and decide on the circumstances behind your meeting:

1. First Time for Everything: Your relationship has been going for some time, but this is the first time you decided to let it advance into the bedroom. One or both of you might be nervous, but it's fine. This step should have been made a while ago.

2. A Usual Rendezvous: The relationship is now at the point where meeting up for sex whenever you're feeling safe and bored is a common affair. The world outside might hate you for this, but it's nothing compared to the routine of your relationship.

3. Ironic Jealousy: Oh my! One of you have seen the other in the hands of another. It doesn't matter if this "another" is their rightful partner, their spouse or whatever else. You belong to each other, so there's nothing wrong in getting jealous and a little rough for it.

4. Doubts and Hesitation: No matter how good your relationship is, it's wrong and one of you has been feeling that much more deeply these days. It's time for a confrontation - either you spend one last night before breaking up or one manages to convince the other that this whole thing must continue.

5. Caught in the Act: You've been doing your best to hide, but it didn't take you far. Someone saw you and it's only a matter of time before the whole world knows about your affair. Do you separate in order to satisfy everyone else? Or do you recklessly discard your old lives for the sake of forbidden love?

6. After Separation: Due to the constant pressure on your relationship, you decided to separate and lead your own lives. For better or worse, it takes you only so far. A chance meeting sends you into each other's arms and leaves you wondering why you broke up in the first place.

7. Happily Ever After: A lot of people protested against your union, but you never let it stop you. Now you're either leading a new life away from everything that forced you away from each other, or you convinced the world that this is what's right for you. Tonight is the night of celebration and not leaving each other's arms, no matter what.

Oh please. Spare me.

[ Brian just gave him a roll of his eyes as he folded his arms over his chest.]

The little blond with a amazing ass? I saw you and him..together.

[ Hmmm, would you want it to be in the modern setting or would you like to try a more au one? ]

"You should probably consider letting me go, dear."

He felt bad, though. He knew Father McKenna would be in quite a bit of trouble once the angel was freed, but he did miss his shop. He'd slowly made the realized his protests were becoming more and more half-hearted. He should leave. But...

"Though I don't want to see you harmed for keeping me here." he frowned.

[ Now it was Jack's turn to roll his eyes. Turning on the ball of his foot, he walked back into the room and jerked his head for Brian to follow. Or not. He could loiter in the foyer for all Jack cared. ]

I wouldn't know about his ass. I can only imagine the blond in question is my cousin, recently back from exile. Not the brightest, I'm afraid. Gets it from his mother, I think.

[Yeah, that's basically his type tbh.

Also I randomly uploaded this icon of Klaus' actor staring at a cat while laying in a bathtub because it is like he's staring into your soul. It's symbolic.]

I'm flattered. [More like he didn't really care but he will exercise some restraint.]

[lmao what in the fuck. is that the look he gives sylar ... ]

You don't even care, do you? It doesn't mean anything to you. [he purses his lips.] I could kill you, you know. If I wanted.

[Iceland wasn't sure how long Russia had kept him trapped, he long since lost track of time. Russia treated him so kindly when he didn't run away. He kept saying that he was keeping him away from everyone because he love so many times that Iceland was actually starting to believe it. Slowly he started to become more and more willing to let the Russian near him. Now it had lead to this, Iceland sitting on Russia's large bed wearing what Russia had told him to wear with still a reluctant look on his face.]

[Yes.

Klaus will roll his eyes when Sylar starts PMSing because 1) no, he can't kill him. He can make him hurt like a motherfucker but Klaus won't die sry, he will just get pissed and make Sylar hurt worse. And 2) Sylar is all talk basically. In fact, Klaus decides to go ahead and call him on his bullshit.

He grins because he's a smug bastard, then walks over to sit next to him like they are boyfriends or something.]

So what's stopping you?

[This wasn't supposed to happen, really. It was harmless teasing on Zion's side. That was how he got under Izaya's skin either it was from invading his space or saying things in a way that could be taken either way.

Today Zion had simply decided to bring it up a notch, growing a bit cocky that Izaya wouldn't do anything. Izaya was a grown man and Zion was a high school student after all. But he had been wrong, when he had gone into Izaya's office like he usually did after hours things had gone fine until Zion had invaded Izaya's space to say something. But this time, the other didn't just take it or tease back. It had happened in a flash and Zion had found himself pinned on the couch with the other looming over him.

Violet eyes looked up at him with open confusion.]

What was that for?

[sylar averts his eyes from klaus because yes it was an empty threat and he doesn't like being called out on it.

and ukw they are boyfriends ok. in sylar's mind. this is the guy who also decided he was going to marry claire just because they were both immortal so this is taking it slow for him. :'| ]

Nothing. I just don't want to.

{ sounds brilliant to me, go for it~ }

I'll take that as a compliment then.

[Not that Sylar camping out in his room for ~hours~ wasn't any less complimentary (although it was also borderline creepy tbh, but Klaus is such a creeper himself that it probably didn't even register to him).

Anyway, Klaus loves being right so he will let Sylar keep his pride for the time being. Oh look there is a hand on your thigh. Apparently he has no problem boning his sister then coming back to encourage Sylar's wedding fantasies.

Klaus is the best boyfriend, basically.]

Trying was the operative term, until Peter was there in his space, knee shoved between his legs and pinned without being touched. He only managed a gasp, staring at the older man, lips parted and eyes wide.

[Severus spins around. The touch is unexpected which usually means trouble. But it's her and he can't keep the smile off his face no matter how worried he is about how this will end up. He's missed her. More than missed her. Lucius and the others don't know but he only joined them to keep her and his mother safe. Except his mother died a few years ago so now it's just Lily.]

Lily...

((OOC: Any qualms about a little brother's over-affection?))

[A little late, but would you mind someone from another DC property?]

{ I love wholock. How about we go toxic relationship and stockholm syndrome where your master is the one who captures mycroft and uses him in any way imaginable~ }

((None whatsoever! I figured 1 is the first number, rolled a 4 for the second. That okay with you?))

((OOC: Fantastic. Do you want me to write first or do you want to do it?))

[The Master very rarely walks upon the earth these days. He'd rather leave the dirty work to some nobody with a penchant for making a mess of things whilst getting the job done, but this--this was a special occasion. They'd located one of his governors acting out of their station.

He knew it would happen eventually. He'd heard whispers of Mycroft Holmes during his time as Minister of Defense. He'd even met the man, the shadow, briefly at some sort of party. He'd threatened lightly, and the Master had smiled Harold Saxon's firm but mostly unassuming smile at him, and internally licked his lips like a hungry tiger.

He did so enjoy the long game.

He finds the abandoned warehouse in an area already swept through by his teams. He has the Toclafane standing off so that he might call them if he requires assistance.

The sound of his dress shoes sounds out in an echo as he makes his approach.]

I do apologize Mr. Holmes, but I am here to give the people what it is I feel they should always have. The truth. [His words from over a year ago at the party hold the same earnest conviction as they did that night. He's a talented actor, but there's a wicked smile on his face as he says it this time.]
