MY PEFECT DATE WOULD INCLUDE...

MY PERFECT DATE

Starting with dinner under the stars, a walk on the beach, from a trip to the zoo to a trip to the county morgue — we've all got that idealized date in our heads. The perfect mood. Planets align, all that. Baby angel sing over that A+ Tinder swipe.

But the biggest difference between your fantasy and your character's? Your character's just got blurted out to everyone in the vicinity, for starters.

Oops.

HOW TO PLAY
- Top your levels off with character info, prefs, and their description of a perfect date.
- They'll get the point and laugh treatment. Or maybe not? They might score a date!
- Do your part. Comment on all other hapless victims!

Ice cream, the beach, power ballads — Whitesnake? — and more stars than we could count.

That, or really good chili cheese fries.

[ What? She's a romantic. ]

I really don't understand dating.

[naturaldisasster]

Like... The mechanics of it? Or the core concept?

[seenitbefore]

...Yes?

I don't know, it seems really forced.

[naturaldisasster]

What does? Spending time with other people?

Congratulations, you've gone from antisocial to "reclusive rancor farmer."

[seenitbefore]

I think the technical term is "rancher".

I spend time with a lot of people, I don't think that means I'm dating them.

[naturaldisasster]

Alright, smartass. I hope y’name one of th’scaly bastards after me.

Are we talkin’ about a debriefing? Because it sounds like we’re takin’ about a debriefing, and that’s exactly nothing like dating.

[seenitbefore]

Of course I will.

So those are the only two forms of interaction?

[naturaldisasster]

[ Of course he would. Oni very maturely stuck her tongue out at him. ]

Naturally, no… But that’s not exactly a denial, is it? So, if we aren’t talkin’ about a debriefing, then what are we talkin’ about? [ This grin, like butter wouldn’t melt in her mouth. ]

[seenitbefore]

[ A Shistavanen with her tongue sticking out is something to behold. Cassian keeps a straight face, but only because he is a highly trained professional. Don't try this at home, kids. ]

I do socialize on occasion, you know.

[naturaldisasster]

[ He better not laugh. This face is serious business, buddy. ]

Oh, do you? How so? Bingo night on the Outer Rim?

[seenitbefore]

Dejarik, usually. Bingo is more of a Colonies thing in my experience.

And I know I've gone out for drinks with you before. Were those dates?

[naturaldisasster]

Do you cheat at dejarik, too?

Nnnooo? [ This brings up an important point: Does she know what a date is? ]

[seenitbefore]

If I did, would I admit it?

The point is, it's not interacting with people that I don't get, it's... [ A vague gesture. ] The other stuff.

[naturaldisasster]

That sounds like something someone who cheats at dejarik would say.

Can you at least specify with “The Other Stuff” is?

[seenitbefore]

I don't get scheduling a time and place to flirt with someone, especially someone you don't know very well.

[naturaldisasster]

So what I’m hearing is… Either you only flirt with people you know very well— And I can’t fault you for that —Or you don’t feel it’s… Spontaneous enough? Is that it?

All I can say to that is if it ain’t important enough t’put in your planner, it’s probably not gonna happen.
