Buy, buy, sell!

SELL ME YOUR CHARACTER



The Question: Why should anyone want to date/ship with/be in a relationship/fall in love with yours?
The Challenge: Answer that question under the character limit for a Dreamwidth comment subject header.

✱ Comment with your character. In the body of the comment, feel free to either link a picture of your character or leave it blank.
THE CATCH IS THIS! Don't put the usual mumbo jumbo in the subject. Instead, sell us on your character by summing them up in an appealing (or funny, or dumb) way! IE, Bruce Wayne could be "rich Daddy with a love for costumes." Paul Atreides or Luke Skywalker could be "cute space messiah." YOU GET THE PICTURE.
✱ Everyone, including your character, can see the tagline.
✱ Any takers?

She passed away a few years ago but I think she would be fine with you being a sorcerer. Your good looks and fashion sense alone would have pleased her, plus you actually have manners.

[personal profile] time_warp_again 2022-05-25 08:29 pm (UTC)(link)
I own one suit these days, and when I'm not working I prefer my old Columbia sweatshirt when it's not being stolen by you. [Not that he minds, really.] Hardly what you'd call fashion forward.
time_warp_again: (Scarf)

[personal profile] time_warp_again 2022-05-25 08:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Cloaks, you say? [Never mind his scarf fluttering in annoyance because clearly it's the best where cloaks are concerned.]
dawn_is_breaking: (coy)

[personal profile] dawn_is_breaking 2022-05-25 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah but the one suit you do own is very nice and fits you like a dream. Also you can't blame me for stealing that sweatshirt, it gets drafty at the Sanctum.

[Although really that draft might be from the fact that she usually wears his sweatshirt with no pants....]
