THE DATING SIM MEME
"I must return to my people with the spoils of war, lay my bloodied sword at the feet of my great king,
and celebrate my conquest of all the lands from here to distant Macedonia!"


Congratulations, you're stuck in a dating sim. Hilarious text options pop up out of thin air after every question
and trigger phrase, and you can't feel creeped out by it. You better choose the right answers or...well you know what will happen.

♥Your character is the protagonist of their thread.♥
♥Each responding character will supply a list of two to four options for them to choose from.♥
♥???♥
♥Jam it in? ...or not. It's entirely up to you.♥

He brightens up at the offer.

If you want to, I don't see why not. The extra help would be great!

You spend the rest of the afternoon helping Kirino at his mother's flower shop. It's actually pretty fun, with both of you working!

Your diligence went up by 3!

At the end of the shift, Kirino asks if you'd like for him to walk you home. It'd mean having to wait for him to close up shop.

Accept?

> Yes
> No

>> Yes

[ Of course you would! It would be nice to have company while walking home, and it gives you more time to get to know Kirino. ]

"I don't mind waiting a bit!"

All right! I'll try to hurry up, then!

It takes a while until everything's done, but Kirino eventually finishes and holds open the door for you.

I really, really appreciate your help today, Shindou.

Ahh, I'm glad.

He locks the door once it's closed, then pockets the key.

[ You're sure your parents won't mind too much. It's just another excuse to get out of the house and hang out with Kirino. And other things can easily be shoved around to make everything fit into the already-tight schedule. ]

I'd really like that.

The two of you walk in comfortable silence for a while, though, you kind of want to say something...

> "How are you holding up at home by yourself?"
> "Have you been helping at the flower shop for a long time?"
> Wait for Kirino to start the conversation.
sopranoharmony: (04)

[personal profile] sopranoharmony 2012-07-04 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
>> "Have you been helping at the flower shop for a long time?"

"You seem to know a lot about the flowers there."

[ Shoo, silence, shoo! ]

[personal profile] doingthemistything 2012-07-04 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Ahh... a couple years, I'd say.

You realize, however, that Kirino's been bringing you those bouquets for a long time before then. Maybe he learned about flower meanings at an early age?

> "It's really sweet of you to help your mom like that."
> "Did your mom teach you about all those flowers?"

[personal profile] sopranoharmony 2012-07-04 10:00 pm (UTC)(link)
>> "It's really sweet of you to help your mom like that."

[ You think it's a little sad that Kirino doesn't get to see his mom as often though. ]

[personal profile] doingthemistything 2012-07-05 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
Well... I have to help her with whatever I can.

His voice seems to have slight undertones of melancholy as he says that. You can't help but feel that those aren't his true feelings on the matter. You want to learn more, but you're unsure if pressing the matter will do any good.

> 'I'll press further anyway. I want to know what he really thinks.'
> 'I should leave it alone. I don't want him to get upset.'
> 'Now might be a good time to change the subject, huh?'

[personal profile] sopranoharmony 2012-07-05 04:39 am (UTC)(link)
>> 'I should leave it alone. I don't want him to get upset.'

[ You just nod and let the conversation drop. Walking in silence is better than a sad Kirino, after all. ]

After a while, you realize the silence has grown somewhat awkward. You think you might be the light playing tricks on you (the sun has begun to set, after all), but Kirino actually looks a little pink-cheeked.

You also realize that Kirino's kept one hand hidden from your view ever since the two of you left the flower shop.


... Hey, Shindou? I... have something for you.

> "It doesn't have to do with that hand you've been hiding, has it?"
> "What is it?"
> "..."

[personal profile] sopranoharmony 2012-07-05 04:53 am (UTC)(link)
>> "What is it?"

[ Your face suddenly feels rather warm as well. You have a feeling that you know what's coming up. ]

As you expect, Kirino pulls out a bouquet, and the most striking thing about this one is that it's very... red.

It's comprised of nothing but red roses and tulips, and if you bother counting the roses, you'll find twelve.


Ah... here.

He holds the bouquet out to you, looking a little awkward and glancing away. The meaning of a red rose was pretty universal, and you recall that red tulips stood for a confession of love.

> Accept the bouquet silently, but with a smile.
> "... I'm sorry, Kirino. I can't accept these."
> "..."

>> Accept the bouquet silently, but with a smile.

[ You're so happy that you're tearing up.

You can't resist giving Kirino a peck on his cheek though. ]

He blushes as you accept the bouquet, then even more as you kiss his cheek.

He notices you have a free hand, then hesitates for a moment before taking that hand and pressing a kiss to the back of it. He smiles at you afterwards, and you can't help but remember exactly how dorky Kirino can be sometimes.

[personal profile] sopranoharmony 2012-07-05 05:27 am (UTC)(link)
[ That makes you blush as well, and you can't resist giggling a little. ]

"I l-o-v-e you too." [ Hey, if Kirino's allowed to be dorky, so can you! ]

... I'm glad.

He adjusts his hand a little so that his fingers are intertwined with yours.

> Pull your hand away. Jeez, you were just kidding!
> Grip onto his hand a bit tighter.
> Screw the hand-holding! Get him to put his arm around your shoulders!
