A Picture is Worth.... Meme
This ain't your mama's meme. Forget your RNG, forget your tired old prompts.
A picture is worth a thousand words.
It's easy. Comment with your character. Then go comment around.
But instead of pre-filled prompts with words or numbers, you find a gif or image (any gif/image from any canon or scenario you please) that sets the scene.

The picture is the prompt.

WARNING: THIS POST WILL BE IMAGE HEAVY. AND POSSIBLY NSFW AND THERE MAY BE TRIGGERS.
Some images will not be able to be hidden behind cuts, so please be aware that triggery material may be found within.

If you post an image that is violent or sexual in nature please LINK it, do not embed it into the comment.

Feel free to use this template to stick your image in there.


Good resources for images/gifs are weheartit or tumblr. For not so safe for work gifs/images go here and here.

Dieter? My, that's an interesting name, I don't think I've heard it before. Is it German?

[It sounds German to her, at least.]

A... business card? Certainly, if you would like to give one.

It's German in origin, though I am not.

[ made in netherlands, assembled in the u.s. ]

Here. [ he's supposed to give these to potential customers, but it'll work as an introduction. he fishes one out of his breast pocket before handing it to her. it's quite a nice card, minimalistic and beautifully designed. ]

Well, I like it. Just exotic enough, I think.

[She takes the card and looks it over. It's lovely, really, in a way she didn't think business cards could be.]

Thank you.

[She slips it into her purse.]

I would give you one in return, but I haven't got one on hand.

Exotic..? [ that's a new one. ]

It's fine. In any case, you'll probably enjoy the opera.

[ he hesitates. ] If you have any questions — I could explain, if you like. During or after.

[Poor dear, he seems a bit awkward.]

About the... company, or the opera?

[ more than awkward, honestly. ]

Either.

[ his mouth twitches as if he might try to smile again, but at that point, the lights begin to dim. perkins shuffles in with his beau, smiles charmingly at the other people sitting around them in apology, and sits. dieter only glances at him. ]
