It's For Your Own Good

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!

That's... A very fair point. Nida nods.

"Sorry. I guess Instructor Aki was very effective at drumming in the 'proper forms of address' thing."

Or maybe he's got a tiny bit of hero worship that could be easily wiped out if he interacted with Squall more. It clearly hadn't lasted for the rest of his team.

"You don't have to apologize. I'm in charge at Garden so it's understandable, but you're allowed to use my name. I kind of prefer it, actually." He hadn't really chosen to be commander after all and having people who'd grown up with him calling him sir was a little weird.

"Alright then, Squall," Nida offers with a bit of a smile. See, he can do this. "Guess I just... I didn't really expect you here. I would have been less shocked if Zell walked up to the table."

Because that made more sense than Selphie arranging this. Unless it was just an attempt to get Squall out of his work more often. That is fair too.
