Dating

The Dating Meme


Dating is, when you think about, really weird. It's a totally different thing for different people. Some are friends for years before they date; others start dating on the same day they met. Sometimes, there's a lot mushy stuff involved; other times, the couple acts just like friends. None of this is necessarily right or wrong.

Whatever it is, your character and the character you reply to are now dating. How? That's up to you. Whether it be awkward or not, the relationship will be uniquely theirs.

How to Play
-Comment with your character and preferences.
-Reply to others.
-Have fun.
Prompts


1. Best Friends to More: Oh, wow, you've been this person's friend forever! But then you realize you have feelings for them, and they for you. Will things change when you change your status?
2. The Sudden Decision: Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy, but here I am, date me maybe?
3. Confession: You've had feelings for this person for, like, ages, and you want to ask them to date you. Or maybe the confession just slips out...
4. Hate Date: You really don't like this person; actually, you hate them. But you don't want them to be with anyone else!
5. I Guess We're Dating: Huh. We are dating, aren't we? Everyone else knew before us...
6. Slow Decision: For the more mature and seasoned, they might fall into something sweet without needing to rush.
7. Been Burned Before: One of you has had a bad relationship, and now both of you have to bear that brunt if you want to date now.
8. Innocence: This is your first real relationship, so you have to figure it out together. That's harder than it looks.
9. Courting: You're from an old-fashioned world or are old-fashioned yourself, so it's courting, not dating. Still, maybe you can sneak away from the chaperon.
10. First Date: Your first true date. What's it like? What would happen if...I don't know...it went bad?
11. First Kiss: Of course.
12. First Time: Together or in general.
13. The Perfect Couple: The couple that never argues and is more like best friends than a couple.
14. The Not-So-Perfect Couple: Ugh, these guys always argue and seem to despise each other. Why are they even together?
15. Comfortable: You can do anything around or in front of your honey.
16. Not Cut Out for Dating: One of you is anti-social, a jerk, a stoic badass, whatever. You're not dating material...yet here you are.
17. Getting on Each Others' Nerves: Spending too much time together can get even the most patient people annoyed with the person they're dating.
18. Know What You Like: It's almost like they can read your mind, whether it be in the kitchen, at the store, or in the bedroom.
19. Trouble in Paradise: Maybe it's external factors, or perhaps internal, but whatever the case may be, things aren't looking so sunny.
20. Test the Strength: Someone else has an obvious crush on the person you're dating. What do you do?
21. Pregnancy Scare: Hey, it happens. So, how do you feel when the period turns up missing?
22. Getting Serious: Things are getting way deep with this person. They may be the one...or maybe they think they are, while you're not too sure.
23. Old Hat: This relationship is dull. Can you get back the spark?
24. End It: You don't want to date them anymore. You want to see other people.
25. Taking It to the Next Level: You don't want to date them anymore. You want to marry them.
26. FREE SPACE

[ Gifts, tributes, that presumptuous, foppish nobleman has been sending the nine-tailed demon lord something, anyway. It started with a formal perfumed, declarative letter, informing them that the young Lord King of Treno, silly thing that he was,

had intentions on capturing their heart. ]

[ And it had worked, oh, all so easily. Nine wasn’t exactly one used to being courted — the matter was a rarity as per their current standing … but it was far from an unwelcome one. Matter of fact, they found themselves so enthralled with their secret paramour that they had eventually decided to pay him a visit. All it had taken was a summoning sigil, one of the flowers sent — and suddenly, the manifestation of hazy crimson smoke, harmless fire and he of royalty found the kitsune of glory and conquest in his very chambers. ]

[ The beast pads forward, a smile worn like a seducing dagger. ]

My my, here I was worried you’d be hideous. Turns out my not so secret admirer is just gorgeous.

[ The spindly red flower didn't lead to Lord King's waterfront mansion in the city of Treno.


The flower lead to the depths of the Desert Palace, Kuja's other, lavishly appointed domicile -- this one the 'Incredibly Hidden Secret' one. He was laying alone on his opulent bed in a silky nightshirt, a harmless sparkle of light floating just beside him as he read a book, and--

yeah, that slips out of his hand and falls closed with a little bounce on the bed. He sits up in a hurry, an enchanted sparkle in his eye, and reaches out to a languid curl of red smoke that's made it out as far as his bed... it goes to nothing, in his fingers.

That's far more than nothing, in front of him right now. ]


You've found me here, of all places...?
...How amazing. And here I'd heard those who play with fire, hardly get what they want...

[ their suitor's voice is a high singsong, one overly occupied with the stresses on his words.]

Not in my presence — those who play with fire are often rewarded for their bravery.

[ Nine takes in the sights of lavishness with little interest. They appreciate the taste they have for the materially beautiful, but their attention is focused in them and their clearly astonished self. ]

But you are more than just brave … you are bold.

[ Forward they step, the aroma they bring with them that of … blood and death, yet somehow perfumed in such a fashion that it is endearing, like alcohol tailored to be tolerated. Behind them, nine masked tails oozing crimson ink, leaving behind little droplets and murmurs amongst each other. ]

I love bold.

Tell me … what is your fascination with yours truly about? I sure hope it’s not about just my power — that would be awfully disappointing.

[ They pose their question once they are before their bed's frontal edge, gazing down at them with a curious smile, and a lick of sharp teeth. ]

[ comes in two three flavors: openly romancing and doting on you, and together with you while Actually In Love With You, and thus completely out of his depth and unsure how to deal with his feelings.

...the rare option 3 is "both, and doesn't acknowledge that he's also option 2 yet" ]
