MATCHMAKING POST: PRIDE 2023

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!!!

Tosses a rough-and-tumblr brawler who's actually a major softy underneath all her scars at u

ahem well on ze menu we have...

Entrapta from She-Ra - it's entrapta. you know her. i may not have seen arcane but i know what piltover and zaun are like about technology.

Naomi Fairchild from Arcade Hearts - here, I'll have to whip up some icons but!! nerdy twenty-something girl who loves repairing and maintaining old arcade cabinets if you want a more normal gf for her!! either vi can be a tough girl in the cyberpunk near future of arcade spirits or arcades can be real in league of legends.

Alex Chen from Life is Strange: True Colors - pretty sure you also know her but. if you want a nice but also slightly rough and tumble musician gf i suppose

man, the sad part is that entrapa would probably remind vi too much of her sister

Naomi would also be fun but now I can only picture Vi in the vein of Life is Strange where she's all hard punk but there's soft acoustic in the background

Alex would probably also have a panic attack looking at Vi's aura

listen counterpoint foster care has probably 100% made her able to appreciate that sort of thing, even if she doesn't like the feedback

POINT TAKEN

two soft women with Backstory it is. Just consider Vi being a small town mechanic with a bit of a chip on her shoulder.
