the affectionate physical contact meme

 

you love spending time with your significant other. but sometimes, just "spending time" with him/her isn't enough. you need to have your hands on each other every now and then.

➝ post your character below, with your character's name and series in the subject.

➝ tag other people, using an rng with range 1-8 to roll a scenario.

➝ roll as many times as you want, play out whatever you want!

one; hugging. you just want to give your loved one a warm embrace. be it out of happiness, to comfort them while they're down, or just to give them something warm to latch onto, you just want to wrap your arms around them.

two; kissing. whether it's a peck on the cheek or a deep kiss, a kiss good-bye or a romantic kiss, you find yourself compelled to kiss the other person! be as tender or as passionate as you so choose.

three; holding hands. it's a simple gesture, really -- to reach out and take someone's hand. but that one simple gesture can convey any number of sentiments. what the sentiment is, is up to you, but you find yourself reaching out to take your significant other's hand.

four; carrying. is your loved one hurt and needs a lift? do they want a piggyback ride? or do you just want to spare them the effort of walking? whatever the reason, you're now itching to pick up your partner and carry them to their destination.

five; i love you. you've said it before or maybe you haven't but now you have to say it again or for the first time.

six; dancing. kick up the music, because it's time to dance! but no lone dancing allowed -- you need to have a partner! you can do whatever dance strikes your fancy. personally, i recommend the slow dance, but you can do whatever you want!

seven; massaging. did your significant other have a rough day? did they get hurt? or do you just feel like doing something really nice for them? whatever it is, you're giving them a nice massage now. they'll feel wonderful in no time!

eight; flirting. the easiest way to break the ice or maybe you're just an overly flirty person.

nine; cuddling. sometimes there's just no better feeling than curling up next to each other on a warm sofa. hold each other, lie next to each other, fall asleep on each other -- it's all good here.

ten; wild card! reroll, pick an option, or come up with something else!

we are so legit

[unhappily]

This can't wait, Gold.

[undealt]

[He finally gives her a look over his shoulder. It is deeply, deeply displeased.] Of course it can. You just turn around and walk away.

[He waves his hand in a "see look? simple" gesture, because clearly Regina needs that spelled out for her. In neon.]

[unhappily]

I'd love to, believe me, since it would mean you'd be likely to die with the rest of this town. But I'm not so willing to let my son go down in flames with it all.

[untethered]

[ BELLE HATES HER LIFE SO MUCH, she'll just be over here, miserable and watching regina lest the queen decide to turn her into a pumpkin or some shit ]

[undealt]

See, Belle, she has a heart after all. You can almost see it- perhaps if you squint a bit. [Even if she has a point, he is going to be completely catty about it. That said, all attention goes to Regina.] And what's the occasion this time? Your mother? Your own mistakes come back to bite you on ass yet again? Honestly, I do hope you're going to surprise me this time, dearie. I'd hate to think you were interrupting what was actually a pleasant evening for more of the same.

[unhappily]

This really isn't the place to discuss it. [ she cuts a gaze across the way at the snowing tribe, eyes tight. ] Your shop. Fifteen minutes.

[undealt]

I'll be there in twenty. Go ahead and let yourself in. I know a locked door's never been one to deter you.

[Leaving Regina alone in his shop is probably a bold move, but he doesn't keep anything in there she's going to care about. And maybe she'll prick her finger on something for nosing about. That'd show her. Plus it gives him an extra five minutes with Belle to be deeply apologetic that she's kinda sorta dating a mafia lord.]

[untethered]

[ belle lets out a shaky breath, watching regina go, before looking back to gold ] So much for being alone.

[undealt]

[GLARING DAGGERS AT REGINA'S RETREATING BACK. And then he's back to Mr. I Have No Game And I Must Apologize For My Horrible Fairy Tale Mafia Life.] I'm beginning to think they plan this.

[He takes her hand in a reassuring gesture.] Shouldn't take long. If Regina's patience is as short as her temper, she won't want to mince words and if she does... [he shrugs] It only takes a matter of seconds to tell her exactly how little I care about what she has to say.

[untethered]

[ she nods, tight-lipped in a strained attempt at being understanding about all this, but then she just can't take it anymore and blurts out: ] But must it really be you who has to clean up all of her messes? Why can't you let her find a way to deal with whatever it is she's done?

[undealt]

[He almost had an articulate response to that. Or thought he did, anyway, but when he tries to voice it, he actually stops short, because... Why does he have to be the one they all come to? Aside from relishing the thrill of having his hands in all manner of pots, none of it really matters now. And helping Regina is more of a hindrance than a delight.

It's very rare that Rumplestiltskin doesn't have an answer for something and he has to take a moment to process it.] Because it's a very small town and she's a bull in a China shop. Leave her to her own devices and she'll bring the whole place down around our ears.

[Not the best answer, but true enough. The real answer is more complicated and probably steeped in a sadistic desire to lean over Regina and whisper you still need me, dearie, but I don't need you at every available opportunity.] I don't have a particular attachment to the place, but until we can leave on our own merits, someone has to put her in her place.

[untethered]

But you're not the only one who can stop her. [ she gestures back across the crowd ] We're in a town full of heroes. Why do you have to do it alone? [ she already knows why he's not in a hurry to team up with them, but it doesn't make it any more irritating. not that he has to play 'hero' in this case - but because he always seems to think the only way to fight regina's fire is with his own dark magic fire. ]

[undealt]

[No. No, he's not. And he'd be damn delighted if half these people learned to pick up their own pieces without him- pots or no. Once he has Baelfire and Belle, he'll be off on his own, leaving them to their own devices.

He leans on his cane a bit, visibly perplexed by his own inability to come up with a reason beyond "I just do."] What would you have me do?

[Just gonna casually put the safety of the town and its inhabitants in your hands, Belle. No pressure or anything. Not that... putting the safety of the town and its inhabitants in his hands is a smart move...]

[untethered]

Tell the others. [ welp. ] See what they might have to say. They're all here.

[undealt]

[He glances around. You have seriously thrown off his groove, Belle. HE DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO NOT BE THE GO-TO GUY.] Just announce it to the entire party?

[untethered]

It doesn't need to be so dramatic. Just walk over to the Charmings and tell them.

[undealt]

[He looks like he's going to argue the point further, but then, suddenly, with a certain determination, he marches up to good old reliable Charming and explains the situation. There is much gesticulating. Charming and Snow look generally displeased. After a few moments of conflict, Snow and Charming exit and Gold returns, looking victorious.]

So that's what it's like being on the other side of that. [He offers her a hand.] Well, she's their headache now.

YOU THOUGHT I GAVE UP BUT I WAS LYING IN WAIT

[untethered]

I knew you had it in you. [ even if it involves him not doing the ~right~ thing, at this point, she'll settle him for not doing the wrong one. BABY STEPS. she takes his hand and draws in close instantly, laying one hand on his chest. ]

And then I drowned your inbox RIGHT BACK.

[undealt]

[he makes a pleased sound, because dammit, it's good to kick having their dates interrupted right where it hurts.

and he makes wry grins super sexy, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. as soon as she moves in closer, he's back to resuming the dance.] Now. Where were we?

/slowly drowns... back..

[untethered]

[ she pulls herself tight up against him, her embrace warm and open and rewarding ] Somewhere around here, I think.
