I'M GOING TO SAY IT

[postingmemes]

HOW WOULD THEY CONFESS?

Because you headcanon about this. Don't lie. I can tell.

Your character's finally confessing how they feel to somebody! Oh God, it's happening! But what words are they saying? How are they saying them? Or, actually, what're they NOT SAYING? WHAT ARE THEY DOING?

(You know some characters would do the absolute most vs. others hardly breaking a sweat.)

This is not a drill. It's a confession they're afraid they might not get to make another time, cried out in the heat of battle. No, wait, it's a preplanned affair complete with a giant "I LOVE YOU SIGN" as they nosedive into shark-infested waters...that are on fire??? Possibly, if we're wrong about that, it's a casual admission over coffee, sandwiched between compliments about haircuts. Whatever the case, the flavor fits your guy, gal, or nonbinary pal to a T. Their big show of romance...starts now.

How to Play

❤ Info. Prefs. Quick, get it done.
❤ NO BLANK TOP LEVELS. This is in media res, no time to waste, your character is confessing literally at this very second and you gotta give us a rundown of what's happening. That can be a line of dialogue. Or action. Whatever. You gotta.
❤ The person who replies to you is the one getting confessed to? Most likely? But they also might be a supportive friend testdriving your character's method or some rando who got in the wrong place at the right time.

[sacramentalism]

[Her heart is in her chest. The way it thumps in her ears Sophie is sure the other person is going to hear it. She isn’t good at this. She’s not good at opening up or letting others know how she feels. In the past anything was used against her.]

What happened between us wasn’t just the spell backfiring... [They’ll know what that means, right? Sophie looks up through her bangs with a purse of her lips.]

I mean—- [Oh fuck, she’s terrible at this.]

bucky barnes | mcu | m/f

[unbucky]

Don’t expect you to feel the same way, but ‘m just…tired of regrets, right? Not like I need another one to add to the pile.

[talentedscavenger]

[Rey's eyebrows furrowed, trying to understand what Bucky was talking about. The atmosphere between them was turning heavy, which wasn't unusual when they had a cup of coffee together. Sometimes the talks were heavy, reflecting on the past, present and what it meant for the future. Sometimes there wasn't talking but the atmosphere was heavy with things left unsaid, but Rey wasn't going to press. Being there for someone meant being within reach if they needed someone to hold onto.]

I'm...not exactly following.

Hakuno Kishinami (Male) | Fate/Extra | OTA

[invalid_data]

[This is just, awkward really. He's not even sure if he's doing this right but here he goes.]

So, um. I want to tell you something... [God, this is going badly and he hasn't said anything confession like yet.]

( ooc: sorry for the 2k16 icons; despite them, she's from the suicide squad canonpoints! )

inuyasha | m/f

[ruffgoing]

Are your ears busted or something? You really want me to say it again?

[watersacrificed]

[Did....she hear him correctly? He couldn't be serious--and his next choice of words only reaffirms it.]

Yes, otherwise I wouldn't have asked. [She huffed, debating between ignoring what he said...or ignoring the blush that was rising to her cheeks.]

Holtzmann | Ghostbusters | F/F, 25+

[holtzergeist]

I really like your face.

!!!

[sneakofhand]

Yeah, well...I like your brain. It's got good stuff in.

kunimi akira | hq!!

[kunimeh]

I mean... you're alright. Better than most people. To me, anyway.

I guess you're pretty much my favourite person. And that's probably, like - love, or whatever.

shirabu kenjiro | hq!!

[selfefface]

I understand that this may cause some friction or discomfort between us, but I'll do everything I can to minimize the effect on my own side. Please know that you, and the bond I already share with you, are the most important things regardless of the nature of that bond.

Still, I feel that I've been dishonest with you for too long and it's time that you know the truth.

I love you. I'm in love with you. I always have been, from the first time I saw you.

terra | teen titans

[rockandrolled]

—because I'm in love with you, alright?! That messed everything up, and it's why I had to...

[ Betray you? Stab you in the back? Destroy whatever tiny, fragile thing was growing between the two of you? ]

You said you understood! About me, about what I've done, all of it! You swore you did.

Toudou Jinpachi | Yowamushi Pedal | OTA

[withtheband]

I've decided that from today on, you and I are lovers! I trust you have no complaints! WAHAHA!

[His broad smile, a little more strained than usual, quickly fades. His brows furrow.]

No, wait. That isn't how I want to do this. Rather, I... hmm. I don't often find myself at a loss for words, you know.

Rey || Star Wars || F/M

[talentedscavenger]

[ooc: open to cross-canon/au.]

[Rey has no clue what she's doing. It's now or never. She reaches out to grab their hand, swallowing her nerves and looks into their eyes.]

Before we go, I need to tell you something.

Izuku "Deku" Midoriya | My Hero Academia| OTA

[secondarynature]

((OOC: Unless it was one person, AND THE WHOLE FANDOM KNOWS WHO THAT IS!))

[It hits him all at once. It's usually how things always come to him. And it brings on both the relief followed by even more crushing anxiety that he's EVER FELT BEFORE.

And it's right when he's finally asked by the object of his affections 'What's wrong?' that he finally lets it out.]

I...think I love you. For a while now. A long one...probably not since we first met because that was really awkward!

Um! You don't have to do anything with my feelings, or go out with me! In fact it all kinda just hit me and then slipped out when you asked me and-

[It's about here that he suddenly sinks into a muttering, mumbling mess. It might be good to stop him. Soon. Maybe.]

noé | vanitas no carte | ota

[archiveur]

[Noé's not one to beat around the bush, but he's also not one that has a good enough command over any language to express himself in a romantic way. In fact, he can barely wrap his own head around these concepts himself, much less be able to communicate those very same concepts.

Still, it's been heavy on his chest for a while now, and he can't keep himself from saying something about it.]

Whenever we're alone together, it's hard for me to not get close. You smell so good, but I think I want to be around you even if you never let me drink your blood. Is that normal?

Dana Scully | X-files | M/F

[x_filed]

[ There is perhaps something fitting in the fact that it came in email, late at night after having returned from a case. ]

I have come to realize, or maybe it's more honest to say it's become too apparent for me to no longer deny that my feelings toward you are simply platonic. Over the years we've spent together working side by side, supporting one another, and growing closer you've become part of my life that I no longer can see my life as complete without.

I've never spoken of this to you because I have worried that it could jeopardize our friendship or our working relationship not to mention the Bureau's policy on fraternization. But I feel it would be dishonest to stay silent now when I've come to realize the truth and depth of my feelings.

It is my most sincere hope that these words don't cause you pain or stress, and if they do I am sorry for that. But I cannot bring myself to be sorry for finally admitting after all this time that I love you.

poe dameron • star wars • ota

[navigatio]

[ That sinking feeling is back. That he might be getting in the X-wing for the last time this time. It's suffocating, but he knows that if he really is, and he doesn't say something, do something, he might not ever get the chance to. So he stalls and grabs them by the hand to stop them from leaving the bay just yet. ]

Wait, before I go---

[see_the_stars]

[Adrenaline is racing. Rey doesn't like the nervous feeling sitting low in her belly, but there's nothing to be done about it except ignore it as hurried preparation goes on around her. She isn't expecting Poe to stop her in her tracks, and honestly, it takes her breath away a little as she raises her eyes to meet his, her expression shifting from surprise to concern.]

What is it?

Na'na Niall | FF14 wol | M/F

[knightglow]

[ Gentle were her heart, but full of anguish it had been. What purpose would a confess stir or hold, if the one before her would need look toward her with worry. As a Warrior of Light, there were no promises of ever coming home. She fasten herself with that reality a long time ago, even so her love had grown most true.

Even so, she had fallen in love long ago and held it to herself until she could no longer. ]

I could not hope to change the fates away from this moment, if you would hear of my emotions.

[ Her hands reached beneath their own. Drawing them toward her, consoling the other forward. So they may be close, as a Miqo'te it was affectionate and customary to press one another's foreheads together. She does as much, with her ears pinned back. Honey color'd eyes, lit like soft embers burning into the others gaze. ]

I would love you for as long as this life may carry me, and it may not be yours as all of Hydaelyn would have at me. You have my love.... All the same....

ingrid | fe:3h | ota

[nuptialess]

I don't know how else to say this, so I-I'll just come right out with it.

[ She straightens her posture, sets her jaw, steeling herself for the exact admission she's undoubtedly been putting off for ages. ]

I have feelings for you. [ Her cheeks burn an even brighter pink. ] And if you can't or— don't feel the same, I understand. I'm not telling you because I expect anything, but... I thought you should know, while I still have the chance to be honest with you.

Cha Hyun-Su | Sweet Home (TV) | M/M shipping OTA all other relationships

[monstereyed]

[ Try as he might, Hyun-Su is incapable of meeting the other's eyes. He swallows thickly and his throat makes an audible clicking noise, giving away every ounce of nervousness he feels bubbling in his gut. With a deep breath that falls into a shaky sigh, he finally manages to get the words out. ]

I like you.

[ The words are soft and his voice is small, so much so that if there had been any noise at all, he's certain they'd be drowned out with ease.

His gaze remains on the floor, just at the tops of his covered toes, as he awaits the other's response. ]

Karamatsu Matsuno | Osomatsu-san

[autolatrist]

The moon... looks beautiful tonight.

[ It might look even more beautiful if he took off his sunglasses. But they give him the confidence to monologue excruciatingly into the night. ]

Heh... You already know why I've brought you out here, don't you? Of course I can tell. I can read your feelings clearer than ever. Bathed in radiant moonlight, we stand alone but for the thousands of stars shimmering splendidly over us like the gaze of the gods of desire, piercing through us... our hearts, our souls, vulnerable and naked! To eachother as well!

And I can see now, you've been yearning for this moment... to hear these words... How long you must have waited for me to tell you that I...

[ With a snap of his fingers he whirls around and holds his arms out for an embrace. ]

I accept your feelings, my Karamatsu Girl! Now, let us begin this journey of love!!

[ He finally removes his sunglasses, and--

OH GOD THAT'S NOT THE INANIMATE OBJECT HE WAS PRACTICING ON. THAT'S A REAL PERSON THERE.]

[solbrave]

[ Oh, dear.

Graham was at first very confused (if oddly flattered) by the absolutely random love confession he was hearing that seemed directed at him, but now it appears he got in the way of someone's attempt at practicing giving one. Graham's not embarrassed, but this poor young man certainly must be.

Chad that he is, Graham's going to be as smooth about this as possible. ]

That isn't bad. Not at all. Saying that the moon is beautiful may not land, depending on her tastes; it's considered a little cliched, though I like it. What's most important is that you have passion.

Kiyoshi, Teppei | Kuroko no Basuke

[enjoytheview]

[Kiyoshi gives a head pat in passing, which isn't an unusual gesture. It's way too heavy handed, as if despite being quite the gifted athlete, he isn't aware enough of his strength to let up a little.]

Ahh, I really am in love with you~

[It doesn't matter what you might've been saying or doing. The definition of "My Pace", this is the kind of thing Kiyoshi can just spit out without any weight or care, as the attraction happens to strike him in the chest, whether it be passing by somewhere, or even being yelled at or lectured on something.]

zelda | breath of the wild/age of calamity | m/f

[archaeologics]

I was, ah, hoping to discuss an additional matter with you.

[ There's no hiding how nervous Zelda is - she's pacing, wringing her hands, and slipping into her formal tone out of habit. ]

Regarding our... companionship.

kyouko kirigiri | dangan ronpa | m/f

[useyournoodle]

[ Kirigiri isn't very good with words, especially when it comes to feelings. So she opts to take a different approach.

She pulls off her gloves - the ones she said she'd only remove for family members - and places her bare hand on his cheek, looking him in the eyes. ]

machi kuragi | fruits basket | m/f

[imperfecting]

It's not that I like you, or anything!

[ It's an instinctive denial out of embarrassment, though she catches herself quickly. There's no real point in hiding it anymore, not when it seems like he's already realized the feelings she was trying to hide. ]

Or... maybe I do. But it's not important.

[ Because really, she doesn't expect him to like her back. She knows she's strange, and his friendship is more than she'd expected. ]

Kainé | NieR: Gestalt/Replicant | OTA

[pissoffbook]

[ooc: This is what RP is for! So that what you wanted to happen in canon actually happens!]

[She looks to her companion, meeting their gaze for a lingering moment before releasing them from her hold, stepping back, and allowing them to slump to the floor.]

Stop bitching and get moving.

[After the catastrophic battle the both of them had just gone through, and the losses they suffered, one would think she'd want to stop and take some time to grieve. But that's not Kainé's way, and there are still things to do. They can't stop now that they're this close.]

If I didn't love you I'd leave your ass behind.

[She turns and takes about five steps before she realizes what she said. Kainé then stops abruptly, keeping her back turned, and not saying another word for a long while. Then she starts off again as if she didn't just make a love confession.]
