Tied up in knots

why should i marry you? 💍 meme
Imagine, if you will, a world where you must convince someone to marry your character. What do they bring to the hypothetical table that is sure to win all comers?

That world is this world. It's this meme. You have one shot to marry off your character. ONE subject line. The rest of their life depends on it. Their life depends on it!

(Am I implying they'll die if they don't get someone to marry them? Well. I'm not-not saying a painful end will come their way...

Don't hold me to anything. Just plead a case! You don't have time to worry about the specifics, do you?)

how to play:
- What it says.
- Why should ANYONE marry your character?
- Put it. Go ooooon. Put it.
- So. Volunteers? Anyone out there?

[personal profile] huffnpuffs 2023-05-31 12:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ... probably. Not that he's ever actually given anyone a back scratch (without rending flesh from bone), but when you can grow your own claws it's probably a safe bet? ]
