LYNDON'S OPEN MATCHMAKING POST 2023: PRIDE EDITION

"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 gonna be gay in some way bc pride month, even if that's Two Bisexuals, but include maybe 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!!!

jesus christ

janis would have just dated zoe post-curtains if she didn't already have four girlfriends huh

but now i'm just thinking about nancy drew and zoe working together to solve the mystery of her brother's death

[shedoesthat]

how COULD he have killed himself if he was doing so well in those weird tree emails!!!

yes 100% i am down

cw: dear evan hansen's plot

[Nobody believed Zoe when she said Connor didn't kill himself.

It didn't make any sense—he was genuinely doing better for the first time in his life and maybe their parents didn't know that but Zoe did. The new school and meds working for him and he had a boyfriend who seemed to be really good for him... none of it fucking adds up and everyone has been telling her that's what it's like. Death doesn't make sense, especially not suicide.

But she's heard Nancy Drew solves mysteries and Zoe wants this one solved.]

I don't even know where to start, just... nobody thinks my brother was murdered but me.
