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.

Are you Ouija, then?

[The man who's approached the table is lean, with slicked-back black hair and light brown eyes that almost seem golden in the light of the club (a neat little champagne lounge called the Margravine Club). He's wearing a nice suit, but seems completely at ease in it, as if the suit's just a second layer of skin. His smile comes easily, but he seems almost to be inspecting the Kindred, as if trying to understand why this was the person that he'd been set up with.

It had all been one of his employees' idea, one of the chipper young bartenders. She'd even arranged for the date to take place inside the club he owned, for an extra layer of comfort.]

(ooc: Your friendly neighborhood hunter ain't ordinarily one for blind dates...

But, hey, he'll take any opportunity to wine and dine a sweet girl (~~...at your local dive bar~~). Dudes welcome as well, but we so deep in the closet The Darkness should be jealous so it's likely some miscommunication or trickery on their mutual third-party's end. Would love it to be more than merely ship-centric, but will roll with the flow. All pertinent information provided here~)

(ooc: first of all, your info page made my day. just throwing it out there. beautiful.

also. if you're okay with it, I have this walking disaster of a human being who definitely will not jump in bed with Dean on the first date and honestly will probably just stare at him suspiciously the entire time and be ridiculously snarky.

no problems if you're not interested. just couldn't resist casting a line because I love early-seasons Dean.)

[ prepare for him to be awkward at best. .. maybe a little charming. crosscanon + OCs a-ok, post-NWH by default. ]

[She's 18+ (so automatically post-NWH, though I can avoid spoilers if you'd like), unless your character is also around 16 - 17. Open to things leading to something shippy or for something more platonic to develop.]
