The BLIND DATE Meme

The Blind Date meme. Pretty self-explanatory. No matter how awkward and unexpected they might be, there is always something exciting about them. Who is your company for the evening going to be? Will it be a person of your innermost dreams or someone you absolutely can't stand? And most importantly...

How are you going to handle it?

What do:
1. Post with your character! They're now in the middle of a blind date.
2. Comment to each other! When you do that...
3. Go to Random.org and roll a single die!

1.
First date
-- You've never been out on a date before, so someone's decided to give you a helping hand.
2.
On the rebound
-- You're recovering from a painful breakup, but your friends/family think they found a great person for you anyway.
3.
Not strangers at all
-- Someone thought you didn't know your date. Turns out you know them from somewhere.
4.
Hideously awkward
-- Hey wait, that's your ex/boss/doctor/distant family member! Or, even worse, it's that person you absolutely despise. This will go well!
5.
Existing partner
-- You two are just acting like strangers to spice up your love life.
6.
Future spouse
-- Unfortunately, you have to have an arranged marriage. Fortunately, you get to meet that special someone for a date beforehand. How will the night go?
7. ...or, instead of rolling, come up with your own scenario!

4. Play out the date. This meme can be completely fluffy, smutty, or hilarious. If you don't want smut, you can put that in your subject. It doesn't even have to be romantic.

[How do you feel about a Static? Was thinking of a scenario where the two have worked together quite a few times as superheroes and just coincidentally happen to go on a blind date (maybe through some app) as civilians. But slowly start to figure out each other as being a superhero as the date goes on.

Also down with any prompts listed there.]

[Best of luck to you.]

[I'd prefer 3, but any good starter gets a tag back.]

[ He has a terminal case of 2 going on, so enjoy dealing with THAT ]

[ ota! ]

[If you're up for it... RNG'd 6? Quentin is technically king of Fillory, so it wouldn't be too far out of scope. Be more than happy to AU Rey into the Magicians!verse. ]

[No gender preference, open to cross-canon, cross-medium and OCs. Bring on the lighthearted and possibly awkward dates.]

[ ota. Content warnings for her canon are in her journal. ]

[... we could blame Scott?]

[ His mother set this up. ]

( I'm canon blind and have mediocre icons, ngl, but if you'd be interested do you mind if I tag you? I promise my writing is better than my icons. I just liked your username, haha. )

( mark for spoilers, up to date with ep 2 )

[Alphinaud loved his dear sister to death. Really. But then there were moments... Moments where he could have sworn that both Alisaie and Krile were plotting against him. This was one of those moments. Having been told that there was somebody who needed to speak to him about something important, he thought nothing odd of it. After all, he regularly looked into things like this.

No. It wasn't until he arrived at the restaurant that he'd realized that something was amiss. Nobody seemed to be particularly flagging him down to speak with him and there was no real sense of urgency. Had he gotten the right place? Surely he didn't mishear Alisaie?

Noticing a familiar face, he approached M'ahina with a confused expression.]

Ah, just the woman I'm happy to see. Have you seen anybody who needed assistance with something? I was told my presence was requested.

[He really should have asked who he should look out for, but he was under the assumption that whoever it was, they would make themselves known the moment he came in.]

Unless... Did you need something from me, my friend?

[OOC: I hope this works. I just started Stormblood so I hope that's okay. I'm also voicetesting.]
