Blind Date Meme

[feelnothinatall.livejournal.com]

I feel vaguely bad posting this since we've had a few other memes over the last few days but. I wanna spam the hell out of everyone. .___.

In honour of the fact that it's Valentine's tomorrow in my corner of the world, I bring you the Blind Date Meme!

Somehow, someway, your character has agreed to a blind date (or several). Maybe they were coerced into it, maybe they don't actually mind the idea, maybe it's just Stacy messing with everyone's heads again, but they're here now. And at the very least, it shouldn't be boring for them.

♥ Make a comment for your character, you can outline a mini-setting if you want. (Think along the lines of the 'Waking up in bed' meme we had a little while back.)

♥ Other characters comment to that as the other half of the blind date!

♥ SPAM HAPPENS.

♥ My inbox dies horribly PROFIT!*




* 'PROFIT' may not apply if participants' idea of profit is anything other than large amounts of spam. Offer void outside the internets.

Uh oh. Bouncy's getting the Sulk for that one.

Because it gets boring otherwise. And it looks good.

So very true.

[brainy-bot.livejournal.com]

Why don't you do it then?

[smartnass.livejournal.com]

Because I'd have to go under your arm.

[And you're short.]

[brainy-bot.livejournal.com]

We're flying.

[smartnass.livejournal.com]

[raises his eyebrows]

It'll look silly, but okay.

[brainy-bot.livejournal.com]

I think it'll look silly regardless of who does it.

[smartnass.livejournal.com]

Haven't you seen dancing before?

[helpfully] You have to raise your arm.

[brainy-bot.livejournal.com]

No, not really.

[...raises arm?]

[smartnass.livejournal.com]

[And Lyle spins elegantly out and then in again.

Of course, Lyle hadn't mentioned the dipping part of this. So he'll just go ahead and dip Brainy with no warning. It's not as though it actually requires his participation.

And they're back to dancing! Or Lyle is.]

[brainy-bot.livejournal.com]

[The dip was a lot less elegant. Might have had something to do with the flailing roboteen. It also throws him off enough that Lyle's back to leading.]

You didn't mention that part!

[smartnass.livejournal.com]

I was going to work up to that part.

[Also, technically, Brainy should've been dipping Lyle. Details, details...]

[brainy-bot.livejournal.com]

That wasn't working up to it!

[What he doesn't know won't hurt him...]

[smartnass.livejournal.com]

Well, it seemed like a good time.

[subject change!]

Did you want to try it on the ground? Or are you satisfied?

[Ignoring the fact that Brainy was forced into this in the first place.]

[brainy-bot.livejournal.com]

...I guess on the ground would be acceptable. Just to ensure I have the basics down.

[smartnass.livejournal.com]

All right.

[Lyle lands and waits for Brainy to lead.]

[brainy-bot.livejournal.com]

[...he can do this. Hopefully without treading on Lyle's feet. And here we go again!]

[smartnass.livejournal.com]

[Lyle is not afraid of your tiny robot feet. Wait, are your feet made of metal? How much do you weigh?]

[brainy-bot.livejournal.com]

[All of him is made of metal! And he weighs a lot more than you'd expect, since he goes from adorable robot to seven foot version with lasers and cannons.

Mind the toes, Lyle.]

[smartnass.livejournal.com]

[Is it light metal? Grife. Maybe he should've teased less.]

[brainy-bot.livejournal.com]

[That does help to not make him weigh an insane amount (it's just not practical to be really heavy, after all), but it's still a fair bit of weight there. He will have his revenge on your feet!]

...something wrong?

[smartnass.livejournal.com]

Nope. You're doing fine. [Don't get distracted, pay attention to where you're putting your feet!]

[brainy-bot.livejournal.com]

Really?

[For the moment, not on Lyle's. For the moment.]

[smartnass.livejournal.com]

You're surprised? I told you it'd be easy for you to pick up.

[brainy-bot.livejournal.com]

And the flourishes? I'm not sure it would work so well, considering...

[smartnass.livejournal.com]

We can skip that. Since we've only done that once. [Also: my toes.]
