MATCHMAKER MATCHMAKER MAKE ME A MATCH

OPEN MATCHMAKING POST

"What the hell is this, Lyndon?"

Good unnecessarily aggressive question, hypothetical person! Basically, do you remember that "Give me one of your characters and I'll match them with one of mine" Plurk meme?

"I'm a strawman you invented for this post why would I-"

ANYWAY, this post is like that, because I love that meme a lot and have way too many characters by far. So here is how this is gonna work, basically!

1. You leave a comment with a character journal you want matched up!

It's important that in this comment you include if you want f/f, f/m, m/m (I have like two or three workable dude muses as a warning right upfront), or are open to whatever, as well as what kinds of characters you think might ship well with yours, and like... a quick summary of their personality for me! Also specify if you're here for smut or not or if you want assumed cr or a particular relationship stage or... whatever other information you want to put in. Age range, certain characters/canons you definitely don't want, whatever! I wanna stretch out some of my lesser-used journals here, though, so no specific character requests!

2. I will reply with an offer!

You are obviously free to veto or respond or whatever, but I'll run through my muselist (or inevitably for someone make a whole damn new account) and find someone and reply with an ooc hashing-things-out comment. If it works, reply with a starter or an affirmation if you want me to start!

3. WATCH THAT MAGIC HAPPEN or potentially watch this idea crash and burn

Anything's possible when you believe!!!

I LIKE BOTH OPTIONS LBR we have talked a bit about this. Let's do Amy first because Allie and Amy it's funny listen

[amymethyst]

YOU GOT IT

... are they dating and both keeping entirely separate secret lives as a magical girl and a kaijudo kid because that would be hilarious 2 me

[mutantkoalabff]

[amymethyst]

excellent 10/10

[How did Allie end up in a relationship? And with another girl? She still wonders that, even though she and Amy have been casually going out for...about two months now. It'd been a surprise to everyone, especially her, after her...very intense feelings for Ray.

But this feels strangely right, and her friends are absolutely supportive of the whole thing. ...With some teasing, a healthy amount of teasing in some cases and an utterly unreasonable amount in others Alakshmi. It's fine, she can kick anyone's ass who mocks her. ...Which is probably what keeps most of the others from doing so? Aw, Gabe's scared of her--

These are the thoughts going through Allie's mind as she's waiting on Amy at a little cafe, swirling sugar into her...beverage of some kind, it says it's coffee but she totally does not think that's the case, it tastes more like some kind of milkshake. She hasn't been waiting long, but...long's a little hard to gauge anyway. Allie's kind of realizing with all the running out she has to do, she tends to give others (especially Amy) the benefit of the doubt in terms of being late? Amy never really asks her about her "busy schedule" so she has to be just as supportive, right? She wants to, despite some wonders, but-

But "there's a class at the dojo" can only work so many times and she's starting to run out of other viable excuses.

Maybe dating while protecting the veil between worlds was...an ill-informed idea.]

[amymethyst]

[ She had really tried not to be late. Really, really tried. But then that one lion had turned into five lions, and all those lions had turned into a very large lion man? Thanks Dark Opal, you awful guy, you went and made her late for her date.

Amy ends up running half of the way to the cafe, and by the time she gets there she's short on breath and oh no there she is, she's been waiting, crap crap crap. She might not be in the position of having friends to tease her about this dating thing, but Amy takes it all very seriously. So she tries to... casually walk in and sit on down at the table, but uh. Amy is clearly short on breath and trying to balance herself again, there's no hiding it. ]

Hi, I'm so sorry, I just... you ever run into a problem that seems like it just turns into five problems once you start working on it? How long did I end up keeping you waiting...?

[mutantkoalabff]

[...Rushing in, that's cute. Allie swallows down a question of where, because again, she does not want it to turn back to her, and. Well, it's not like this is a habit, right? (It's absolutely a habit, for both of them.)] Ohmigod, I felt like that last week, I hear you girl. [She flashes a smile.] I've been chillin' for just a little, no sweat. Is...everything okay now...?

[amymethyst]

[ At least she's sitting now, and she can... chill. Someday she'll probably have to explain that she's a... magical princess, but how does a girl do that without her super cool girlfriend breaking up with her on the spot? ]

Everything's good now, yeah. Should be good for a while! How... are things on your end?

[mutantkoalabff]

["Killer mission to the Kaiju realm, reconstruction work is exhausting, you know?" Hahaha. Yeah, no.] They're cool, hella cool. Buncha work at the dojo, but it's getting chill. Here, lemme flag down a waiter...

[amymethyst]

Whew, thanks. Glad everyone's good over at the dojo, though. Chill is good. Way better than... not chill.

[mutantkoalabff]

Yeeeah, you know. New students, new kata, blahblahblah. Waiter! Mm-hm, hi there thank you, could you get my date something sweet...?

[There's a certain thrill in saying date. Her date. Hers, they've been doing this for months and yet she still feels a rush of adrenaline, like jumping from a cliff to Squeaky's back, whenever she draws attention to it.]

[amymethyst]

[ Amy blushes a little, but smiles at the waiter. ]

A blueberry muffin? I like blueberry muffins. And a... chocolate latte thing. Mocha! Yeah, that's it.

[ She is many things but she refuses to be the person who asks for Mountain Dew on a date IT'S GOOD DON'T JUDGE HER SHE IS BUT ONE SMALL GAMER.

AND THERE HE GO. ]

It's a beautiful day out, huh?

[mutantkoalabff]

[...You know, she has a few friends who would probably do the same, so it's...fine, she wouldn't mock you horribly? Maybe?

...Ehhh.]

Totes. I was hoping all week we wouldn't get one of those, uh, freak storms. [ie. Kaiju causing troubles from beyond the veil. That would have cancelled the date a multitude of ways.]
