MATCHMAKING MEME

♥♥♥

➊ Post as your character (one per thread)
➋ Respond to someone else's thread with the name of another character!
➌ Your character must attempt to "put the moves" on the character given (in the thread of the given character)
❹ ?!?!?!
❺ PROFIT!

Per usual, new characters and so on are allowed! Just remember to put their name/fandom in the subject so that we know what's going on. Oh, and feel free to have your character protest this matchmaking (not that it'll work, but it's funny)

Kuja | FFIX

[mnementomori]

Excellen is weird but really nice! You should...go talk to her.

[Mission: Help Kuja make more friends! Or so she thinks.]

[existwithoutme.livejournal.com]

Pardon me? Why are you addressing me in this manner? And who are you referring to?

[mnementomori]

I just thought...maybe you could meet some more people.

You know Alfimi, right? Excellen is her "big sis".

[existwithoutme.livejournal.com]

[At this, Kuja, one of history's worst older sisters, frowns, then sniffs.]

I do know Alfimi, yes. Is she indeed?

I am perfectly capable of forming my own attachments, without assistance from others, thank you.

[mnementomori]

That's what she told me.

I didn't mean that...[droops a little]

[existwithoutme.livejournal.com]

I'm pleased that wasn't your meaning. I have made a great many acquaintances already. [She has at least three minions so far. Possibly four.]

Is there any actual reason I should speak to this woman? Her familial attachment to someone I am on speaking terms with is hardly compelling.

[mnementomori]

[she perks up again.] You have? That's great!

Well, Alfimi lives with us, and I was going to introduce Excellen to Sora, so I thought maybe you should meet her too.

Oh, and...you're supposed to "put the moves on" her. Is that like dancing?

[existwithoutme.livejournal.com]

[Kuja is not going to pay attention to most of what you just said.]

I am expected to do what? [How vulgar; like something Zidane would say!]

[mnementomori]

I don't know...someone said that's what adults do when they meet someone new.

[existwithoutme.livejournal.com]

Whoever told you that was patently immature, and most likely intellectually challenged.

You are far too credulous, child. You shouldn't blindly repeat things you've heard without understanding them.

[mnementomori]

[Kuja your big words are confusing...]

I-I'm sorry. Is it bad?

[existwithoutme.livejournal.com]

[Kuja and her big words cannot be parted!]

You're doing yourself no service, and in future, you should be more careful.

[She sighs. Is she really going to be obligated to do this? Difficult child.] What does this woman look like?

[mnementomori]

All right...

Ah! She's blonde and her hair is in a ponytail, and she always looks excited about something.

[hopelessdreamer]

[oh god why is she doing this.]

So, uh. Thanks...for the other day.

[protip: Gal is usually smooth. But not when she's trying to be smooth.]

[existwithoutme.livejournal.com]

[Kuja turns to regard her, coldly silent for a moment. Then she rewards Gal with a slow smile.]

Ah, yes. Nothing to thank me for. Such a simple matter for a woman of my talents.

[hopelessdreamer]

[just what is that expression is she going to eat me or something--]

Well, maybe. But to me it was pretty impressive. Anyway, I thought maybe I could--

[okay, Gal, think.]

Make you dinner sometime?

[existwithoutme.livejournal.com]

Yes, I can't blame you for being impressed. [She says this with complete sincerity, followed by a veiled expression.]

And why would you wish to do that, my dear?

[hopelessdreamer]

[oh boy.]

Repaying the favor.

And you could...say that your skills aren't the only thing that impressed me.

[did those words just come out of her mouth.]

[existwithoutme.livejournal.com]

[Kuja rises, turns toward Gal, and takes a step toward her. She hesitates between amusement and annoyance before deciding to be amused.]

Is that so? Then please, enlighten me. What else is it about me that dazzles you so?

[hopelessdreamer]

[okay, she can handle this. Just like talking to a guy. No, wait.]

The way you hold yourself is very elegant and refined. And your hair, it's like starlight.

[the rational part of her brain has just given up by now.]
