will they, won't they?

Oh my god, there is nothing more frustrating than when you want to kiss someone and press them against a wall, but for some reason, you can’t—or when you see two people who are obviously in love and you want to shove them into a room already. What is preventing you two from getting together? Can anyone end this?

prompts

1. BOSS ✖ A romance with a higher up or your boss is taboo for many good reasons, but you’re finding yourself falling in love with them anyways. Will others approve? Will one of you have to quit your job to not get the other into trouble?

2. JUST FRIENDS ✖ Talk about one of the biggest roadblocks to love ever! You want to kiss them, but you don’t want to ruin your current relationship. What are you going to do? Will you get the guts to confess and hope for the best?

3. GOALS ✖ You want to tear down a building to build an apartment complex, they want to make it a historical landmark. Opposing dreams and goals are huge roadblocks, especially if you happen to want to ‘sleep with the enemy’… literally.

4. TEAMMATES ✖ You work well together, you can depend on them no matter what, and you get along outside of the office or game. What you feel is just that happy camaraderie, not any mushy feelings of love or romantic affection! Is it?

5. DENIAL ✖ No, no way. You do not love that other person. They are stupid or just too prideful or you’re not interested in them at all. Ha, admit it, you totally are. Now go over there and admit your feelings before everyone around you goes insane.

6. COWORKERS ✖ Oh, this is awful. You really, really like your coworker, but there is a no dating policy, or they don’t date coworkers under any circumstances. Dare you make a move after hours or in the break room? It could be worse; you could have the hots for your boss.

7. POLITICS ✖ Clashing beliefs and heated debates always gets the blood pumping, and even though you have sworn to defeat them and get your bill pushed through, their eyes make your heart jump and makes you reconsider your ideals… Can you find a compromise or let bygones be bygones?

8. TAKEN ✖ Oh god. How can you confess to someone who is already taken? Why are you even feeling like this? You must never let them know. Ignore everyone who is encouraging you to take a leap of faith anyways. They are taken and that is that.

9. SOCIAL CLASS ✖ She is a princess, you are a stable boy, he is a rich lord, you are the scullery maid… Money is an important factor to any relationship, and sometimes, it can be one of the barriers. But how long are you going to let positions and titles keep you apart?

10. PRIDE ✖ You? Be in love with someone like that? Ha! No way. You are far above them, and you deserve only the best love. But… what if they are the best love and you just don’t realize it yet?

11. FAMILY FEUD ✖ One of the most famous of all the situations, for some reason, your families are fighting and as much as you like the other person, you can’t betray your family this way. But is there a good reason for the feud? Or a misunderstanding? Will true love conquer all without the abundance of death?

12. OBLIVIOUS ✖ This is the most frustrating one ever. It’s not that they hate each other or someone else is making a barrier, it’s just that they you have no idea how good of a couple you would make or how you always flirt with each other. Will one of you realize it, or does someone need to give you a push?

13. DUTY ✖ Bound by honor and loyalty, you can never cross the line that divides you and your love, be it that you swore to protect them or they serve you. Or will you? How will others react to this? Might it be considered forbidden?

14. FRIEND-ZONED ✖ Oh no, it's not what you think. You see, your best friend likes the person you like, and they are trying to go on a date with them (or get into their bed). But you can't let either of them know, because that is not what good friends do. But what do you do if your mutual crush is interested in you anyways?

15. WILDCARD ✖ Is there something we missed? Is there another scenario you want to play out, or would you like to roll the dice again? Go for it!

[ waking him up really would have been the nicer thing to do here, now there is going to be that lingering sensation of embarrassment while Rook wonders what he might have ended up mumbling in his sleep as he is wont to do so often. sure, he usually ends up speaking in a strange mishmash of languages that is nearly indecipherable to most people, but you never know. maybe he ends up singing baby shark in ancient greek, or maybe he just recites his grocery list.

either way, he does mumble something as he tries to bury his face in his arms, probably getting some flecks of dirt on his face in the process because he is just so put together. as you can clearly tell by his current state.

thankfully (maybe), Rook doesn't nap for long. with a mumbled slur of something that sounds an awful lot like butterfly, the curator jerks awake on the desk and snaps upright.

which means that he might then flail backwards a bit and nearly fall of his chair. alright, so he would have fallen of the chair if it weren't for the fact that, in his jerking away, he realizes suddenly that he is not alone anymore and he goes from falling backwards to nearly falling sideways, hands clutched to his chest and eyes wide.]

Who-- what-- oh my go-- [ breathe, Rook. it is integral for your survival. ] When did you get here? Did I-- how long--?

[ as it can be seen in exhibit a) Rook is not the best at napping. or, waking up for naps. never mind his confusion, his hair is in a right state, sticking up on one side where his face was mashed against his arm, lines of red along his cheeks.

so attractive.]

[ First of all, Rook shouldn't try to define his level of attractiveness by whether he has red lines on his face or flecks of dirt on his cheeks or his hair's sticking up. Those things have no effect on his attractiveness, at least as far as Minjoon is concerned. But he hasn't said that yet, has he? Will he? Who can say!

That is a mystery yet to be solved. As for not waking Rook, well, maybe it's true he should've, but then we come back to the matter of worrying about where the man who never seems to go home finds time for the trivialities of sleep.

And sure, Minjoon could lie and say he just got here. He could. But he is not a dishonest fellow, except in those instances where he has to be. "I'm decades, maybe centuries older than I look and, oh, look, magic!" Just as one example.

Either way, here they are, Rook with his messy hair and Minjoon with a contrite enough smile on his face. ] Sorry, it looked like you were resting well. Didn't want to interrupt.

[ He offers no further commentary on that matter. ]

Let me ask you something. [ He leans forward, steepling his fingers and resting his elbows on his knees. ] Are you hungry? There's food. [ There is no explanation for where the food came from and no explanation as to why Minjoon brought it, if indeed he did. There's not much to go on at all, actually, except that both he and the food (and the coffee, he forgot to mention the coffee) are here. ]

Will they, won't they?
