Baby, you’re perfect


find the word.
+ top level with your person. prefs/canon info/etc.
+ other people will reply with the first word that comes to their character's mind to describe yours. it could be about their appearance (consider this an 'are they beautiful?' meme if you wanna), their personality, or the mystique that may or may not surround (they're...interesting). break out the thesaurus.
+ your person reacts.
+ thread.

[ but then her demeanor visibly shifts — gradual, but noticable: ]

But instead, I think I'll just kill the people who did this to me.

[ Professional reassessing notwithstanding, his face stays readable: the progression of reaction, while she enumerates possibilities, as clear as if captioned. He makes no effort to hide that he's still watching her closely, but so too he gives free rein to his brows, which start quirking wry right at "dungeon crawling." After "strangers' problems" they loosen up in a kind of dopey, grudgeless oh-hey-touché; and by "power of love and friendship," he's grinning too. Not as broadly as he's capable of, but not in spite of himself either. ]

I can dig it, [ he replies equably. After she's said that last bit. Though he doesn't for a moment mistake the shift in her, or doubt its seriousness.

It's what he'd plan to do himself, after all. ]

[ even through her rambling, thorn kept an eye on vasiliy's reactions. thorn's always prided herself on being insightful (all those years living on her own forced her to learn or die), and a person can convey a lot with the slightest change in expression. ]

Oh good! [ but her shift comes quickly, dropping the serious infection for a more light-hearted, teasing tone. ] I'm glad you approve. Now I know I'm on the right track.

[ it's edged in a touch of sarcasm, but there's no mean spirit behind it. ]

So what about you?
