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.

[I was thinking she'd probably take Dawn out for ice cream. Possibly fly her on her Garchomp to Castelia for castelia cones?]

[After zooming around on the back of her beloved Garchomp, admiring the soaring sky scrapers and the harbor of the iconic Castelia city, Cynthia landed with Dawn on a helicopter pad on one building that Cynthia had used on many occasions. She hopped off her Garchomp's back with practiced ease and offered Dawn her hand with a confident grin.]

We have arrived in Castelia, and I can promise you the place I'm about to take you is the most famous ice cream shop in the world.

[Dawn happily took Cynthia's hand, hopping off of Garchomp and giving the companion a friendly pat before turning to Cynthia.]

I'm excited to check it out! Besides, Unova's completely new to me, so I'm doubly excited!
spacetime_aria: (Ah)

[personal profile] spacetime_aria 2024-03-08 04:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[Cynthia couldn't help but smile as Dawn affectionately thanked their "chauffeur" before being returned to his pokeball. Her Garchomp was her best friend, but she wanted to spend this day with just Dawn if she could.]

I think I love the beaches in Unova most, I have a summer home I often visit that's a bit more to the north but... it's a bit off season for bikinis.

[One of the reasons she was so keen on taking Dawn to Castelia was that because it was off season for their famous ice cream, they wouldn't be so mobbed! It was also rather warm in the early days before spring officially started so when she called and asked she was able to confirm they'd be open.]

Castelia is probably my favorite place in Unova to visit for the scenery.

[She lead the way to the rooftop door to the elevator that should take them all the way down to the private exit of the building in the back. One of the many perks of being a world famous Champion was connections to secret places in the city like this.]

[personal profile] sinnohchamped 2024-03-08 04:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, wow, you're lucky! I haven't even the chance to try to settle down yet! I'd love for a simple little getaway house myself.

[She would agree with the off-season reasoning for no bikinis - heck, despite living in Sinnoh, Unova was just a little different in terms of weather, leading to her wearing tights under her skirt this time around.]

You'll have to take me around to the other places if I decide not to come here for another championship.
spacetime_aria: (I love you Dawn)

[personal profile] spacetime_aria 2024-03-09 08:05 am (UTC)(link)
Well...

[Since they were alone in the elevator, Cynthia leaned over and kissed Dawn on the cheek.]

I'll give you a spare key to my summer home, and the address. You can feel free to crash there any time of year, but you should call in advance during the summer.

[Which meant she was also willing to give Dawn her personal phone number too.]

[personal profile] sinnohchamped 2024-03-09 01:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh!

[Dawn laughed as she realized what that meant, smiling at Cynthia.]

Thatโ€™s sweet of you, Cynthia. Thank you.

[And she would kiss her cheek in kind.]

[ooc: would you be okay with an ex-assassin? In this case, could have been a former criminal/trainer for hire that reformed?]
spacetime_aria: (WTF?!)

[personal profile] spacetime_aria 2024-03-09 07:11 am (UTC)(link)
[Sorry but... that's not really a shipping dynamic I'm comfortable with for Cynthia. Murder is one of those big nopes in the pokemon world, and Cynthia tends to prefer people with clean records.]
