valentione's day (2018)
valentione's day |
lovey-dovey Valentione's Day has come and gone, but that doesn't mean we can't have a good old-fashioned chocolate exchange! For whatever reason, your character is compelled to give out chocolate to your thread partners. Choose a scenario below, roll one randomly, or write your own. Shipping isn't necessary, but announce your preferences if you'd like!1. JUST AS PLANNED! You know exactly who's getting chocolate this holiday. In fact, this is something you've been planning a long time in advance. The chocolate's already been gifted to them, either in a locker or on a doorstep of some sort — and all you have to do now is wait for their response. 2. WRONG LOCKER. Switched addresses lately? Moogle mix-up or incompetent deliveryman? Whatever. The point is, your chocolate just went to someone else entirely. Will this be awkward? Or is it horrible cupidic fate? 3. TRADITION SCHMADITION... Chocolate is overrated, and your loved one deserves something a little better than that. Or maybe they're just diabetic. In any case, your gift isn't chocolate, but it's something unique and special to show how much you care. 4. EVERYTHING IS RUINED!!! Just as you were ready to gift someone with your chocolate, you saw them making out with someone else instead. What a heartbreak! Do you eat the chocolate by yourself? Or do you pass it on to the first person you come across? 5. ONE CHOCOLATE TO RULE THEM ALL. Oh-ho, so the person you like already has a ton of chocolate gifts. How do you make yours stand out? By throwing the competition chocolate into the garbage. Bwahaha! Now your chocolate stands alone! All's fair in love and war. 6. EVIL CHOCOLATE. You want to make sure you have the best Valentione's ever, so you miiiight have put a little bit (or a lot) of aphrodisiac into that box of truffles. Or maybe you just bought the wrong box on accident? Either way, that chocolate is up to no good... 7. OBLIGATION CHOCOLATE. There's no one in particular you're crushing on, so you just gave chocolate to everyone to make sure no one feels lonely or left out. Will they accept it for the good deed you intended it to be, or will they read more deeply into the gesture than you realized? 8. I HATE THIS! Arabelle de Valentione can kiss your cold, loveless arse. Valentione's Day is just a corporate attempt to bleed the masses of their hard-earned coin! Death to all chocolate! 9. PRANK CHOCOLATE. "Why does this chocolate taste like fish guts...?" Because that's what you wanted it to taste like! Ha ha ha, suckers! This Valentione's, you're out to spread a little mischief (or revenge). 10. REGIFT. You got more chocolate than you know what to do with. So why not redistribute some of it and spread the love? You may unintentionally (or not-so-unintentionally) wind up playing cupid as a result, if you left the old card attached. 11. YOINK! No one got you any chocolate, so you're going to play Robin Hood and give chocolate to yourself at the expense of someone who has more than enough. Hopefully you won't get caught. (Which means you probably will.) 12. UNDELIVERED. You thought you were ready. You have the perfect gift, the perfect note, and a heart fit to burst with love and admiration. But when the moment came, your spine crumbled. And you failed. So what are you going to do now, sad sack? Mope on a bench and hope someone comes along to lift your spirits, or try again? 13. WILDCARD/YOUR CHOICE. Whatever you want! bonus round! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ There's no reason the chocolate can't be normal chocolate, but if you want to give it an extra kick, here's a list of side effects that the chocolates can inflict upon whoever eats it! 1. COCONUT will make you desperate for attention from the first person you talk to. 2. VANILLA initiates a traditional "I'm suddenly in love with you" scenario. 3. HAZELNUT causes physical attraction only. Feelings of lust. 4. MAPLE NUT makes you want to stalk someone... 5. ROLANBERRY has you crushin' hard on a person, but you'll keep it a secret as much as you can! 6. CARAMEL has you decide to ask someone out on a casual date. Nothing too intense. 7. MINT causes you to decide a person is your best friend ever! To what degree is up to you. 8. LEMON inspires bitter, hateful feelings. Oops. 9. ALMOND inspires you to kiss the first person you see. 10. DOUBLE UP! Roll twice to determine which two you eat. If you roll a 10 again, add a third chocolate, a fourth, etc. Two of the same chocolate doubles the intensity. This meme comes from the Valentine's Day Meme on bakerstreet. |

[trying to affect a cool, disinterested air, ramza bas lexentale serenely returns his book to his lap and turns the page.]
no subject
[so ramza says, reading the complementary card that explains all the chocolate flavors. they all sound appetizing! although... perhaps not this one that bills itself as "almond crunch."]
Do you mind almonds, Ramza? I can eat them, but I believe myself very slightly allergic — my throat tends to feel somewhat heated after I eat almond-encrusted chocolate.
no subject
I don't mind — I can eat them. Give it here.
[assuming his usual brusque, rather authoritative manner, ramza bas lexentale holds out his hand for the sweet.]
no subject
swiftly presses it to the other ramza's lips. enjoy!]
no subject
vaguely, lex again thinks of alma beoulve, and he wonders if her older brother dotes on her like this as well. pulling a wry face, he slowly crunches down on the almond crunch, allowing it to melt in his mouth before he swallows.]
...Was that necessary, Ramza?
[two can play at this game of ramzas.]
no subject
[he was most certainly not, but at any rate, the deed is done, and ramza bas lexentale has been fed chocolate this valentione's day. ramza beoulve smiles. he does not seem at all bothered to be called by their shared name.]
How was it?
no subject
[as ramza bas lexentale turns once more to his similary-named friend — he feels an odd stirring in his chest. something rises from his chest to his throat once they make eye contact, once blue eyes lock upon gold irises. it is a well-known fact — fact, not even an opinion — that ramza beoulve is uncommonly pretty; if he were not, he would have never garnered so much attention from their peers this valentione's day. as much as he seems unaware of it at times, ramza beoulve is quite nearly as beautiful as his sister.
ramza bas lexentale has always considered himself immune to it.
until now.
seized by the bizarre compulsion to lean in and kiss ramza one, ramza two does so at once, pulling the other boy in by his shirt, kissing him fiercely, though chastely — nothing beyond a mere pressing of the lips. then he lets go.]
no subject
oh my god i finally got to use this iconseemingly unruffled, ramza beoulve allows himself to be pulled in by the collar, then allows himself to fall back into his seat. he isn't... especially bothered. what's a kiss or two between friends? excepting delita (it'd be weird), or argath (it'd be awful), ramza would kiss most anybody, if it was necessary. mustadio, for instance... agrias, certainly...]
...That good?
no subject
[ramza bas lexentale says this with such seeming urgency that one might assume the kiss was entirely against his will. which... it sort of was... and it sort of wasn't. it was only slightly against his will.]
I — I know not what foul spell came over me, but you have my deepest, deepest apologies. If there is any way I might make this up to you, I —
no subject
[calmly, ramza beoulve puts the lid on the open box of chocolates once more, and hands it to ramza bas lexentale.]
I ought to be on my way home — but Happy Valentione's, both to you and to yours.
no subject
R-Right... and a pleasant Valentione's Day to you as well...
...Give Zalbaag and Alma my regards...
