The Dating Meme


Dating is, when you think about, really weird. It's a totally different thing for different people. Some are friends for years before they date; others start dating on the same day they met. Sometimes, there's a lot mushy stuff involved; other times, the couple acts just like friends. None of this is necessarily right or wrong.

Whatever it is, your character and the character you reply to are now dating. How? That's up to you. Whether it be awkward or not, the relationship will be uniquely theirs.

How to Play
-Comment with your character and preferences.
-Reply to others.
-Have fun.
Prompts


1. Best Friends to More: Oh, wow, you've been this person's friend forever! But then you realize you have feelings for them, and they for you. Will things change when you change your status?
2. The Sudden Decision: Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy, but here I am, date me maybe?
3. Confession: You've had feelings for this person for, like, ages, and you want to ask them to date you. Or maybe the confession just slips out...
4. Hate Date: You really don't like this person; actually, you hate them. But you don't want them to be with anyone else!
5. I Guess We're Dating: Huh. We are dating, aren't we? Everyone else knew before us...
6. Slow Decision: For the more mature and seasoned, they might fall into something sweet without needing to rush.
7. Been Burned Before: One of you has had a bad relationship, and now both of you have to bear that brunt if you want to date now.
8. Innocence: This is your first real relationship, so you have to figure it out together. That's harder than it looks.
9. Courting: You're from an old-fashioned world or are old-fashioned yourself, so it's courting, not dating. Still, maybe you can sneak away from the chaperon.
10. First Date: Your first true date. What's it like? What would happen if...I don't know...it went bad?
11. First Kiss: Of course.
12. First Time: Together or in general.
13. The Perfect Couple: The couple that never argues and is more like best friends than a couple.
14. The Not-So-Perfect Couple: Ugh, these guys always argue and seem to despise each other. Why are they even together?
15. Comfortable: You can do anything around or in front of your honey.
16. Not Cut Out for Dating: One of you is anti-social, a jerk, a stoic badass, whatever. You're not dating material...yet here you are.
17. Getting on Each Others' Nerves: Spending too much time together can get even the most patient people annoyed with the person they're dating.
18. Know What You Like: It's almost like they can read your mind, whether it be in the kitchen, at the store, or in the bedroom.
19. Trouble in Paradise: Maybe it's external factors, or perhaps internal, but whatever the case may be, things aren't looking so sunny.
20. Test the Strength: Someone else has an obvious crush on the person you're dating. What do you do?
21. Pregnancy Scare: Hey, it happens. So, how do you feel when the period turns up missing?
22. Getting Serious: Things are getting way deep with this person. They may be the one...or maybe they think they are, while you're not too sure.
23. Old Hat: This relationship is dull. Can you get back the spark?
24. End It: You don't want to date them anymore. You want to see other people.
25. Taking It to the Next Level: You don't want to date them anymore. You want to marry them.
26. FREE SPACE

This… was uncomfortable. He almost wanted to think that someone was playing a joke on them, but that was rude and Lan Xichen was not a rude person. That didn’t, however, make this any less uncomfortable. They were sitting in a small cottage, one bedroom and a sitting room. There was a small place to cook food, a bathroom and trees. Lots of trees. The cottage was located somewhere between Yunmeng and Gusu, in a forest with a lake and trees. Coming here, with the person he was sitting across from currently, was not his idea.

He doubted it was Jiang Wanyin’s idea either.

His Uncle, Lan Qiren, had thrown Lan Xichen’s name to the Matchmaker, having wanted an heir to Gusu Lan finally. That certainly wasn’t happening. Maybe his Uncle had upset the Matchmaker? It certainly wouldn’t be a surprise, nor hard to do. Lan Qiren had a habit of being rather—rough around the edges and upsetting people easily. Even if Wangji would never say it he certainly harmed his younger brother, even unintentionally.

Now he was sitting at a small table across from the Jiang Sect Leader who looked about ready to whip someone with Zidian. He wondered if the other was insulted to be matched with him, considering he wasn't a woman. He had heard all of the attempts before, with women, had fallen through because of his famous anger. At least that was what he was told and Lan Xichen didn’t believe in gossip or rumors, so it didn’t matter. There was no chance that they just decided to do men because of that anyway. This, at most, was a mistake or someone angry.

Lan Xichen picked his teacup up and sipped it before setting it back down in front of him. “Would you like a cup of tea, Sect Leader Jiang?”

Wanyin knew exactly why this happened to him.  He was cursed to have horrible experiences with matchmakers and this last one?  He couldn't even blame Wuxian for it.  Someone else must have had a vendetta against him.  The matter was to figure out who.   Who was brave enough to put his name in the hat once more, when all of the other aunties blacklisted him?  Who the hell decided they wanted one more go on him?!

He thought he was done with this nonsense.  Had he not been annoying enough?  So soured in personality and temper that no one wanted him?  That was how he LIKED it!  Wanyin never wanted to get married but his mother wouldn't hear of it. And, naturally, being the heir to Yunmeng Jiang, he couldn't afford the freedom of perpetual bachelorhood.  He thought he had the system beat by being so unpersonable that no woman wanted him.

He hadn't expected the final Matchmaker to do this.  

Wanyin looked like he had drunk vinegar and sucked on lemons as he glared at the man before him.  And this was basically insulting him.  The reason for a Matchmaker was to find a wife to have children with!  And this was... He was...  This was clearly not done with the intention of progressing the lines!  But, he wasn't the only one who was suffering from this joke.  Zewu-jun was before him and Wanyin couldn't blame him for being less than thrilled with the situation.

He wasn't going to break the legs of the Matchmaker...he was going to break their neck.

"Might as well, since there isn't wine."  Wanyin continued to huff slightly, torn between being pissed, having a tantrum and methodically puzzling out who to blame for this warred in his mind.

Henry is swiping through one of the dating apps humming a little. Stops and arches an eyebrow more amused than anything but a little curious. But instead of using the app he takes a screenshot.

"Hello, James... It seems your trying to get back out there?"
