Blind Date Meme

Let's face it, sometimes it's difficult finding someone to share your time, and your heart (or maybe just your body), with. Luckily for you, you have well meaning friends. Unfortunately for you, you have well meaning friends who didn't tell you this was coming. That's right. They have taken it upon themselves (and no doubt friends of friends or family members or someone else who clearly doesn't know you) to arrange a date. Without telling you.

That's right. The dreaded blind date. Which means now you've got to get through at least a reasonable amount of time with a total stranger (or maybe not a stranger if you're particularly, well, we can't say if it's lucky or not) before you can reasonably escape. Maybe it will go well. Maybe this will be the start of the rest of your lives. Maybe you'll get laid. Maybe you'll have a horror story for the ages.

No matter what plays out, though, you're here. Might as well see just how your luck is going to play out.

How to Play
1. Post your character and canon below along with any preferences. Then go back and edit your comment with the next number in order (i.e. first TL is 1, second is 2, etc)
2. Tag other TLs. If a character isn't in normal preferences, ask if they might want a date that goes poorly instead!
3. Optionally, get yourself a truly blind experience by going here and randomly generating a number. Then find the matching TL (numbered back in step one) and enjoy your blind date.
4. For more fun, use the list in the first comment for randomized date locations!

I mean are you going to live at home through college? Because you know, if you pay for your own place... you can make it a pussy pleasure palace.

[Yeah. He just said that.]

Oh of course not. I'm going to Indianapolis probably. Or further. Further might not be bad. Purdue if I can get in.

ANd wow, please never say those words again. Like. Wow. Just don't. That sounds so bad.

Well then! You can live how you want to live. And maybe then decide what to tell your folks, if anything.

[He laughs, sounding startled into it. He covers his mouth, but he's still smiling.]

I'm not sorry.

Now that sounds like the exact kind of avoidance I can get behind.

[She smirks and flips the menu over in her hands.]

Oh I didn't think you were. Don't seem the type.

I have excellent plans.

[So modest, this one.]

You've already figured me out! That's either a sign that you're intelligent and sarcastic, or that I'm just terribly pedestrian.

You ever dated for real? Not this.

Oh, why does it have to be 'or'? I believe in both. Both is so powerful at times.

[Dated for real? Oh no, that doesn't sound so. She shakes her head.]

Never even confessed.

[He laughs again, loud but cut off quickly.] Ohhh, you bitch. You're alright.

You'll get there.

I would have to find a girl that I don't think would out me in horror to do that. And I'm better than alright. I'm amazing.

They're out there. It's not like lesbians are unicorns.

Unless you know something I don't.

We should be. I deserve a magical forehead horn to stab people with.

[it would be useful.]

Who would you stab first?

[The answer was a large amount of people in the government, but that's hard to explain.]

I mean, I'm sure I could come up with someone.

Nobody on the hit list? You're clearly too nice.

Or too overwhelmed with choice.

[No one she is allowed to name.]

This sounds like something I should be looking around for cops for.

[He laughs, cutting himself off with a drink.]

No, no. I promise I'm normal besides being you know.

Are you sure? Because man, that was a whole thing you said. And you got brought into all of this.

Well, I doubt you're really going to get a murderhorn and go on a rampage. Should I be concerned that you are in fact a unicorn?

No. Trust me. I'm not. You think I could be in a place like this?

I guess not.

But weird shit happens sometimes.

Weird shit happens a lot honestly.

...yes. Yes it does.

[He leans in a little.] Has anything weird ever happened to you?

[Robin winces. There has been so much.]

Weird sorta colors my life these days.

Oh, really?

[He actually looks more serious.]

That can be very frustrating.

It can. But I've got great friends to back me up. Except when they do stuff like this.

Heh. Poor Miss Nancy.

I hope we've salvaged some of the evening, though.
