what's love got to do with it

The Fake Relationship Meme

You're not together. But you need to make people think you are. Because of reasons.

Maybe you secretly can't stand each other. Maybe you like each other, just not like that. (Or do you?) Maybe this is the only way you'll ever get to be with your crush. Maybe you just need to give off that couple vibe in public, or maybe you're going to be forced to engage in some hot'n'heavy fakeout makeouts. For reasons, okay?

You know the drill. Post, tag, profit.

1. Home For The Holidays ⇢ You need to prove to your parents that you do so have a significant other. Just until they're gone.
2. No Singles Need Apply ⇢ The place is perfect, but the landlady will only rent it to a nice, respectable couple.
3. It's Not Safe For A Woman Alone ⇢ One of you is vulnerable in this big, bad world without a partner to protect you.
4. Public Relations ⇢ There's only one way to stop these pesky rumors: start your own.
5. Undercover Mission ⇢ They'll never suspect a couple of lovey-dovey honeymooners of... whatever it is you're actually up to.
6. Marriage Of Convenience ⇢ It's good for both your families. Or your finances. Or your hetero street cred. Whatever: might as well make the best of it.
7. Well That Escalated Quickly ⇢ It's common knowledge that you're together, except you're the last to know. Is it worth correcting people?
8. Free Space ⇢ Bring your own bottle scenario.

[Can you fill me in a little bit on your character? It might give me an idea of how they meet.]

[Sure! He was a movie stuntman in his late teens through his mid-twenties (he's thirtymumble now) no major roles, and towards the end of that career he had transitioned into those live stunt shows, like the Marvel Live or whatever, arena shows with acrobatics and bmx bikes and stuff like that, which is where the Zodiac crew first got ahold of him.

Travels a lot for work, but never more than three or four days in a row, I've never really pinned down if the Zodiac has a set city as their home base or what, mostly to make it easier to drop him in anywhere depending on the thread.

He never got into street racing or cage fighting or anything like that, because yeah he's an adrenaline junkie, but he likes y'know, being alive to enjoy things.]

[Hmm! Would he have passed through Seoul at one point? And if he's interested in sweets or cakes - or even for a cover? - he may have run into Seunwoo at the shop?]

[the_rabbit]

[Oh absolutely, he loves fancy baked goods, especially the little ones because they might as well be magic as far as he's concerned.]

[cakeprince]

[Excellent. That's Seunwoo's specialty! Maybe Harry ducks in to the shop to lose someone or do it for cover and ends up getting distracted by the actual food?]

[the_rabbit]

[Sounds about right, either that or he'd made his delivery and had time to kill, got distracted by the smell or the window display or both.
Then of course just keeps coming back whenever he's in town.]

[cakeprince]

[Sounds great. I'll get a starter going!]
