✨ you only get one chance...



THE FIRST IMPRESSION MEME


 


You only get once chance to put your best foot forward. Screw that up, and you'll be forever seared in someone's mind as the person who had spinach in their teeth, or worse!


HOW TO PLAY
1. Drop a top-level!

2. If you have previous CR with someone, you'll have to let them know what your first-impression of them was.

If this is your first time meeting, you'll be compelled to share what kind of vibe they give off. It's okay to be honest! Are they gross? Do they seem approachable? Do you find them incredibly hot? 

3. Find out if your first impression was correct! Maybe that strange loner actually has a heart of gold? You'll never know unless you talk to them!

Oh. Thanks.

[ It's a genuine thank you. He's kind of anti-normie. ]
flamescion: (091)

[personal profile] flamescion 2022-10-18 08:37 pm (UTC)(link)
But guess what? I know you can be nice now.

[Is that a threat?]
strongestcoward: (Penis goes where?)

[personal profile] strongestcoward 2022-10-18 08:39 pm (UTC)(link)
...Is that a threat?

[ It sounds like it to a guy like him! ]
flamescion: (104)

[personal profile] flamescion 2022-10-18 08:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Why would that be a threat?

[It is, a little.]
strongestcoward: (I don't know how to handle this.)

[personal profile] strongestcoward 2022-10-18 08:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Because you're mean to me all the time.
flamescion: (118)

[personal profile] flamescion 2022-10-18 08:45 pm (UTC)(link)
"Mean" is a bit harsh. You just want to get your way all the time.
strongestcoward: (BANG)

[personal profile] strongestcoward 2022-10-18 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, yeah! Why would I want to get it someone else's way!? I've had enough of following orders, I want to live according to my own values!
flamescion: (077)

[personal profile] flamescion 2022-10-18 08:50 pm (UTC)(link)
...You can compromise without it being "following someone else's orders".
flamescion: (101)

[personal profile] flamescion 2022-10-18 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Too bad you're wrong.
strongestcoward: (Shaddap.)

[personal profile] strongestcoward 2022-10-18 09:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Oooh, little miss compromise, why don't you meet me in the middle?
flamescion: (016)

1/3

[personal profile] flamescion 2022-10-18 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
["You're just too afraid to fight me on it"! Is what she was going to say.]
flamescion: (049)

[personal profile] flamescion 2022-10-18 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
[And it's what she would have said a year ago, without hesitation. But...]
flamescion: (123)

[personal profile] flamescion 2022-10-18 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Fine, but— [Augh, anything she'd say could be construed as "orders" even if they technically wouldn't be.]

What about me?
strongestcoward: (Actually I'm god.)

1/3 right BACK

[personal profile] strongestcoward 2022-10-18 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Asura gives a smug, lopsided smirk and takes a breath to say something about how he has 'won' when Kiana changes the subject. ]
strongestcoward: (...Uh?)

[personal profile] strongestcoward 2022-10-18 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He stares at her briefly with his red eyes. The white ones turn upwards and sweep across his sockets, a sure sign of thinking, before they merge the pupils once more.

As someone whose mind is an unrestrained mess, it's often difficult for him to remember what he thought about something earlier. By the time he's remembering it, his mind has changed significantly.
]
strongestcoward: (You'd do that for me?)

[personal profile] strongestcoward 2022-10-18 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[ But there's one thing he can be sure he thought. ]

Scary...
flamescion: (081)

[personal profile] flamescion 2022-10-18 09:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[Scary? Well... certainly that's fair for plenty of people, but he doesn't know of what she did. What Sirin did with her body. Was she really that scary when she first approached him?]

Has that changed at all?
strongestcoward: (Look over there.)

[personal profile] strongestcoward 2022-10-18 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes and no.

[ He waits a second to clarify. ]

Scary cute.
flamescion: (035)

[personal profile] flamescion 2022-10-18 09:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[For a split second she feels the need to argue, but in the end... she just thinks of Mei. Scary-cute? Yeah...]

I think I know someone like that too.
strongestcoward: (I'm so tired.)

[personal profile] strongestcoward 2022-10-19 09:00 pm (UTC)(link)
So it's agreed.

[ He crosses his arms and nods with some authority. ]

Cutie.
flamescion: (006)

[personal profile] flamescion 2022-10-19 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
...Does it really count if you think everything is scary?
