First words

THE FIRST WORDS




You'll never forget the first words they said to you, your soulmate. They spoke to life the first line of what would become your great love story.

How romantic! "You're beautiful." "Pass the ketchup." "Your shoelace is untied." "PUT YOUR HANDS UP OR I'LL CUT-"

Okay, not all stories start off on equal footing, but this one is yours.

how to play
+ Comment with your character, preferences, and a random line of dialogue.
+ That's the first words, as serious or as stupid as they are, your character says to their true love.
+ The folks responding? You guessed it, the poor saps lucky souls who will, eventually, get into a romantic relationship with this tire fire.
+ Who knows how that happens? It might take years. Right now, don't sweat it.
+ Just dialogue back and forth.

No.

[She stares.]

Most emphatically: no.


(Option B)
[It's impossible to say for certain if this is the beginning of this conversation or the middle. Her voice fades in gradually alongside the bright shine of a penlight drifting across the wobbly horizon--]

Well, you've certainly got a concussion but you'll live. There's that, at least.

[The little light snaps off and there is a pretty but extremely severe woman staring. She sighs.]

Come on. Up you get.

[Bongchun manages to catch up to you, and he’s holding out… something. Maybe it’s a handkerchief, or a wallet, or maybe that sheet of crappy directions your friend gave you for a blind date that went sour. Either way, Bongchun has it now and is looking at you expectantly as he holds it out.]

“Excuse me! You dropped this.”
