HOW TO SEDUCE THEM

It's like having a cheat code for winning their heart when you know all of their weaknesses!

How to play.
- We're out of our blank top level era.
- Instead, in the subject line, drop what would make your character character go feral for somebody.
- In come the replies where folks either try to sweep them off their feet or make them feel like garbage for their garbage tastes/

How strange that you weren't in such a hurry moments ago. Fascinating, really.

Talk.

[vanikey]

I refuse, and you can't make me.

[pyrrhicly]

Lucy, you would be terrified to learn what I can and cannot do.

[vanikey]

What? You'd abuse your powers just to get me to reveal my turn ons? You're way too pragmatic for that.

[pyrrhicly]

[ she's entirely right. he's being pissy but it isn't like he'd actually hurt her just to get even over something like this.

a moment of painfully frustrated silence before he turns, scoffing as he makes to leave. ]

Whatever. Destroy it yourself then, I don't really care anymore.

[vanikey]

[ lucy watches him begin to walk away before she seems to even register he'a actually leaving. ]

H-Hang on..! You're not really upset, are you?

[ alright... if she has to admit it, it was pretty rotten of her to take advantage of him like that. she sucks in a steeling breath, nose scrunched up. ]

Fine. I'm -- I'm sorry. If it'll make you feel better, I'll... tell you one of them.

[pyrrhicly]

[ he feels exposed, is what it is above all else. exposed in a way he doesn't allow himself to be anymore. exposed in a way that she seems to stumble into time and time again.

it's a dangerous pattern. ]

Don't. Truth be told, I'm better off not knowing. I don't need to waste any space in my brain on such useless trivia.

[vanikey]

Useless?

[ he -- isn't wrong. there's no reason dark would need to know one of her turn ons, and yet the choice of word and the brusque tone of his voice makes it all feel especially personal. she can't help but take offense. ]

Okay, so maybe I went a little too far back there, but there's no need to be mean.

[pyrrhicly]

Mean?

[ He pivots towards her, taking a few steps back in her direction. ]

How so? That information only means something if you actually want me to use it. Which you don't.

Right?

[vanikey]

[ there's a brief moment where lucy almost takes a step back, but she gathers herself at the last second and maintains her ground. there is a note to dark's voice that sounds like a challenge, and sometimes there's just too much fairy tail in lucy for her own good. ]

What does it matter? You've made it perfectly clear where you stand in all this.

[pyrrhicly]

[ ... she didn't actually say yes or no to that last question of his.



but it's moot. this has danced too close to the line and he needs to end it right goddamn now. a slow breath in, and out, as he forces his expression into neutrality.]

Then perhaps remember where we both stand, and don't try and leap across the distance between us.

[ TURNING TO LEAVE AGAIN ]

[vanikey]

[ this time, she lets him go.




...it's strange. she stood her ground perfectly, so why does it still feel like she lost something there? ]
