this isn't actually real, right?


the f ake dating
┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ a meme
→ COMMENT WITH YOUR CHARACTER'S NAME, FANDOM, AND PREFERENCE.
→ PICK A CHARACTER YOU WANT TO TAG AND HIT UP RNG (01-10), OR CHOOSE A SCENE OF YOUR OWN.
→ PLAY NICE; NO WANK, FLAMES, OR GENERAL HUMBUGGERY.
┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ the scenarios

WORK RELATED: you're probably undercover or some sort of spy, gathering intel or trying to get into some exclusive place. may or may not have feelings for the other person
JEALOUS EX: they are always around you, and whether or not you're over them, you want that trophy partner to show off.
BET: someone made you a bet to be with this person or that you couldn't last with this person or some other thing, but whoopsy, feelings got involved.
RUNAWAYS: young adults on the run, safer in pairs
RUMORS: everyone is already saying you did something sexual with them or you're already assumed to be together. why not keep the rumor going?
CONTINGENCY PLAN: it was never supposed to be like this, but you made a pact or an agreement (maybe even paid this person to be your partner or was paid to be with this person), and now you're with them.
WEDDING/ PARTY/ BIG EVENT: you told your mother you were bringing someone just to get her off your back. so you brought someone and everyone thinks you're together.
PUBLIC RELATIONS: one or both of you is famous. someone is getting some publicity out of this arrangement, but there's definitely supposed to be a life expectancy to this relationship.
CITIZENSHIP: a much harder thing to pull off considering it's actual fraud, but it does bring about a certain kind of quick intimacy.
WILD CARD: ROLL MORE THAN ONCE AND COMBINE SCENARIOS, CHOOSE YOUR FAVOURITE, OR MAKE UP YOUR OWN!

[There's an old, possibly satirical, craigslist ad that starts with: "Alone on thanksgiving? Mad at your dad?" and goes on to list the dude's qualifications for being the best/worst date ever and all he expects out of it is the family dinner, which is absolutely a service Eddie offers. And I'm always a sucker for fake dating turning into real feelings.

Could also be a PR thing if Corroded Coffin gets big.]
