Perfect partner

[pippilongsockings]

Perfect Partner

Open your mouth, what spills out? Words that tell exactly what you're looking for in a partner — even if you're not looking or if you'd usually lie (to everyone and yourself, too) about what you really want. If the qualities of that daydream-person just so happen to describe the person right in front of you...awkward.

Double awkward if they're your best friend or your worst enemy. Triple awkward if they're a total stranger.

how to play
• Comment with your character, their info/prefs, and a NOT BLANK COMMENT. Your character just poured their heart out about a person with whom they'd want to spend the rest of their days. Go nuts! Grab that character development or humiliation. We stan an arc!

• How whoever gets caught in the crossfire responds is the thread.

• Expose those secrets and raw nerves. Torture's on the schedule...or an unexpected happy ending, because the other character's wishlist matches up.

Comments

Someone who isn't intimidated by the truth.

[Why the hell is he being compelled to answer this? He's gonna be very pissed when this is over.]

... Somebody that doesn't mind taking things slow. It's not that I'm bad at commitment, people literally have just always jumped to wanting to get married to me. Which, isn't always their fault, but that doesn't mean I have to be okay with it.

Oh, and somebody... I think the words are bisexual or pansexual? One of those two would be kind of a must with my situation.

A RANMA OMG I'M SCREAMING--

[explosivevictory]

[As a pretty explosive dude, Kacchan has the polar opposite problem. Someone who isn't willing to even try to get close, and just assume based on appearances.

The thought of someone wanting to just jump into marriage with anyone? Unthinkable.]

"Not their fault?" What, so you had arranged marriages or some shit?

[And from what they were saying, this happened multiple times? What the actual fuck.]

A person who's held on to their optimism and goals, so he'll have a purpose to follow.

[gothbf]

...

...listen, we'll be real with you, he's far too broken to be in a relationship that doesn't involve-

[batcaged]

-a cave and vengeance.

[infinite1ups]

...a literal cave, or one of those "mancave" type deals with video games and beer?

...a girl who likes me for me and doesn't mind my crappy apartment?

[cinephiles]

[aspolyhymnia]

How bad is this apartment?

Someone... faithful.

[sisterimperator]

A man who'll kill for her. And kill her. And kill himself.

[moredemons]

[sisterimperator]

So Romeo and Juliet, but with more murders.

An inner light that shines through all else.

[originalelfdonotsteal]

a girl who's got a brain, who always speaks her mind

[savingchina]

[ shirtless men who drink their respect women juice are welcome, too ]

[bookworm_belle]

A brain? Do you mean they’re smart or that they don’t blindly follow people?

Bakugou Katsuki | My Hero Academia | Open To All

[explosivevictory]

[Look. Kacchan is not the kind of guy people just. Like.

Sure, people like him based on his appearance -- "You're pretty when you shut up" comes to mind -- but he's loud and abrasive and isn't great at being vulnerable. There's also the fact that people would get angry at him for 'not being nice enough'...

And when it comes to relationships? Something that he'd want?]

....

An equal.

And someone who won't...give up on me, I guess.

[Ugh, this was so fucking embarrassing.]

[thetombkeeper]

[Hoo boy. Does that second part resonate with Marik. The first part, eh. Not so much unless it's someone that can match his wits. Even then, that's not super important. Having someone not give up on him despite him being a entire basket case of issues is something he very much wants.

The teen rubs the back of his neck and grinds his teeth for a moment before speaking.

What is opening up and talking about your feelings like normal people.]

... You too, huh?

An impossible companion.

[fifille]

[ tw for a lot of Anne Rice typical shit. ]

Crowley | Good Omens

[duckshaveears]

A prissy, stubborn, clever angel who's just enough of a bastard to be worth knowing.

Someone who is honest, patient, and won't give up on him, because there's a lot going on here.

[nomorefear]

Woljif Jefto | Pathfinder: WOTR | OTA

[crescentoftheabyss]

[Normally, he wouldn't admit to any of this under pain of death. Normally, he'd be pretending he's not even interested in anything of the sort.

Normally, he's not under some kind of compulsion.]

Well, they'd have to be patient, y'know? ...I know I don't make it easy, gettin' close, so they gotta be willing to put in the work. Y'know, convince me they're here for me as I am, not just what's useful to 'em. Come after me when I run. 'Cause I am gonna run.

[He hates this! He hates this. Aaaaaaaa.]

...And it wouldn't hurt, right, if it's someone with a little more experience under their belt. Show me the ropes.

Someone brave and kind. Supportive, with a sense of humor...

[infinite1ups]

Immortality optional, but a bonus.

Hiei | Yu Yu Hakusho | OTA

[blackdragonwave]

[A partner? Love? Hiei doesn't need that. All it would accomplish is slowing him down. Make him soft. And that's what he intends to say, really. Unfortunately, what comes out is something entirely different.]

They have to be strong. I don't waste my time on weaklings.

[Well, that wasn't the intended answer. He continues to talk, eyebrows knitting together, confused by the information he doesn't want to share.]

They would need to be stubborn. Too stubborn to let me push them away fully, but smart enough to know when to leave me alone.

[Yeah, that's enough out of him. He forces his mouth shut, and settles instead for glaring at a spot on the floor.]

[kimchis]

How strong would they have to be? Stronger than you, or just about equal?

McCoy - ST:AOS

[1701cmo]

Someone who's assertive, smart, and willing to put up with my shit.

[havenomercy]

What kind of shit are we talking about here?

Why bother? It ain't happening.

[nightwatched]

[will_to_change]

What makes you think that?

Sure, I've never met a Turtle before, but that doesn't make you unlikable. You seem handsome to me!

A partner for what?

[snowmaid]

There was only Shelly, and she's gone.

[awfulgoodness]

[sisterimperator]

Where is she?

Piper Allison / Les De Luca | witch oc

[callmeles]

A guy who isn’t intimidated by a woman who is magically powerful and who has spent a significant amount of time avenging those she loves and who may have a coffee dependency. Someone who is bound to live for a while is a plus.

[constantblaze]

Wait, you have a coffee dependency, or he should have a coffee dependency?

Just asking 'cause you seem pretty non-specific about the actual guy there, luv.

Althea Brooks | Original

[codenametesla]

Someone I can also be friends with, patient and accepting of... everything.

[hahahaha she hates admitting this and will physically stop herself from saying more.]

A busty chick of Asian descent.

[returnofthemark]

[ shrug ]

Lucy | Elfen Lied | ota

[saudadist]

Someone...

[ Kind. Gentle. Supportive. Trustworthy. There's really a thousand things she could say, but really, they wouldn't even need to be a perfect person as long as they always stood beside her... ]

Someone who won't lie to me.

[kimchis]

Hmm... but what if it's a harmless white lie? Would that still call for an immediate disqualification?

Someone who can handle being First Husband.
