BLIND DATE MEEEEEEEEEEEEEME

[jesustapdancingchrist]

The Blind Date meme. Pretty self-explanatory. No matter how awkward and unexpected they might be, there is always something exciting about them. Who is your company for the evening going to be? Will it be a person of your innermost dreams or someone you absolutely can't stand? And most importantly...
 

How are you going to handle it?

What do:
1. Post with your character! They're now in the middle of a blind date.
2. Comment to each other! When you do that...
3. Go to Random.org and roll a single die!

1.

First date

-- You've never been out on a date before, so someone's decided to give you a helping hand.
2.

On the rebound

-- You're recovering from a painful breakup, but your friends/family think they found a great person for you anyway.
3.

Not strangers at all

-- Someone thought you didn't know your date. Turns out you know them from somewhere.
4.

Hideously awkward

-- Hey wait, that's your ex/boss/doctor/distant family member! Or, even worse, it's that person you absolutely despise. This will go well!
5.

Existing partner

-- You two are just acting like strangers to spice up your love life.
6.

Future spouse

-- Unfortunately, you have to have an arranged marriage. Fortunately, you get to meet that special someone for a date beforehand. How will the night go?
7. ...or, instead of rolling, come up with your own scenario!

4. Play out the date. This meme can be completely fluffy, smutty, or hilarious. If you don't want smut, you can put that in your subject. It doesn't even have to be romantic.

You swim a lot? You kinda got that swimmer body, now that I think about it.

[bigsoftie]

Yes...when I can.

[He nervously shifts weight.]

Do you swim?

[whenthedevilscry]

Not too often. I know how, but it's been a while. It's pretty cool though, being kinda weightless.

[bigsoftie]

[He remains quiet for a tick.]


...do you want to go swimming?

[whenthedevilscry]

...Actually? Yeah, let's go swimming. No life guards at this hour, but beaches have a night life all their own.

[bigsoftie]

Right now? I am not afraid of the water.

If you are willing, then so am I.

[whenthedevilscry]

Yeah, why not? Suits aren't really my thing, anyway.

[bigsoftie]

Nor are they mine.

Do you have a place in mind?

[whenthedevilscry]

The beach, of course! It's not a long drive from here. Come on; we'll take my car.

(Slapping his nametag down on the table, Dante makes for the exit, expecting LH to follow behind.)

[bigsoftie]

[Yep, he's following along. Beats eating at a stuffy dinner. Thank goodness for friends with cars.]

[whenthedevilscry]

(Stuffy dinners really aren't Dante's thing, anyway. Give him a pizza pie and he'll be just fine As long as there's no olives

They arrive in Dante's convertible and he he hops over the door to park himself in the driver's seat and turn on the engine.)

[He takes a seat in Dante's car, a rare honor as he gently runs one hand over the seats and door.]

I...I have never been in a car before.
