fanmail + theme announcement!

[idolpro]

Who: You!
Where: Hotel Lobby!
When: Day 338

[ What?? Is it. . . fanmail time already????

It is! So there are many boxes scattered around, less like they're blocking the entrances and more like they're just blocking your walking path in general. Don't trip, there's a box! Look out, it's a box! What's in the sky!? . . . I dunno, that's not a box!? ]

Producers: It's starting to warm up, so let's warm things up!
Producers: Out with the old, in with the new! Novel and Romance are over, now it's ✨✨✨RECIPROCATION✨✨✨ and ✨✨✨DRESS-UP✨✨✨for you!
Producers: Did you get something nice? Pay it back, you fucking fucker!
Producers: Did you get something mean? Get thy vengeance sevenfold!
Producers: Oh, and make sure you look nice when you do it!
Producers: You won't get the extra points though ☆(・ω<)

[ OOC NOTE: WE'RE GONNA TRY SOMETHING NEW!

In the interest of making it easier to hide/separate NSFW content, we're asking players to put their NSFW fanmail reactions under a "cut". How does that work? Here's an example!

We've got a poll up on Discord about it; if it's too much effort or if there's something about it you super don't like, you don't have to do it, but for the sake of player comfort and happiness, if it's not too big of an ask, we'd like everyone's cooperation in trying this out. Thank you! ]

[bluntly] People like to hook up with me or flirt with me. They just don't ask me out. Maybe they expect me to do the asking?

[thinking about a long list of people and whether they count and...]

I think only D.Va said it was a date. Everyone else it was grey area.

[weenwoon]

Ah, are you dating D.Va, too? She asked me out some time after we met, too... Although I must say I did not exactly realize it was a date until she took me to the love hotel.

[He's, dumb sometimes.]

I can't speak for the others, but I suppose it is possible that they do think you might take the lead. I'm not particularly experienced, however...

[1istheloneliest]

Too? So you're dating her.

[he sounds unbothered and somewhat amused]

We've been on a date, I don't think we're dating. We're definitely friends.

Hmph. Maybe I want people to ask me.

[weenwoon]

[ MATH LADY DOT JPEG.......... IS THIS FLIRTING? ]

What if I asked you?

1/2

[1istheloneliest]

[DERE FACE]

2/2

[1istheloneliest]

[...and tsun]

Why would you do that?

[weenwoon]

[hardy you're so fucking stupid, hold his hand right now]

Because I would like to get to know you better?

[1istheloneliest]

[he's so weak, they're holding hands now]

Y-yeah? That sounds good...

[weenwoon]

[C...CUTE,,,, things Levity did not expect from today: a new date? He chuckles, looking a little flustered but smiling.]

I mean... You seem quite sweet and open, judging by the times we've talked, and--well. We've already covered the topic of you being attractive, I believe. I would be open to dating you, and even if it turns out such that we don't feel about each other that way, I would still like to be your friend.

[1istheloneliest]

[he is blushing but happy blushing]

Thanks. Honestly, that sounds perfect. At worst we get friendship out of it, and you--you seem wonderful.

[B L U S H I N G]

[weenwoon]

[GAY! WHAT THE FUCK! Levity colours too, but he's definitely happy about it, too.]

O-Oh... thanks. I mean... thank you, really. I mean it.

[IT'S... SWEET TO BE COMPLIMENTED LIKE THAT... Well, all of his partners do, really, but they're usually more confident. Hardy seems both shy and earnest and that's terribly cute.]

Ah, but... I suppose there's--one consideration. If we do end up dating in full, do you mind if we take it slow? I'm... still not very good with intimacy.

[bad shit happened don't worry about it.]

[1istheloneliest]

You're welcome...

[he rubs the back of his neck with his free hand, a little embarrassed

it sounds like there's a story there but he decides not to press Levity on it]

Sure, if that's what you need then that's fine. I'm not in a rush.

[weenwoon]

[Boy is there a story!!! Thankfully things are a lot better now. He smiles, squeezing Hardy's hand lightly.]

Thank you. I'm doing better now, but...

[He trails off a little awkwardly, then shakes his head.]

Forgive me, that's a bit too gloomy a topic for now. I believe my next step here is to ask when you would like to have the date and where you want to go?

[1istheloneliest]

As far as when, I guess whenever you feel ready and want to go. Where is trickier, but I think the typical first date is either getting food or doing some low stakes activity, sometimes both? So...

[he literally got sent to the moon for puberty so he doesn't know how dates work very well]

[weenwoon]

[why are the hargreeves fucked up!]

Well, I didn't have other plans for today and I haven't had lunch yet!

[He thinks for a moment.]

We could go to the department store. There's food and window shopping is a fun and easy way to find things to talk about.

[1istheloneliest]

[it's literally all they know]

Makes sense to me.

[his stomach rumbles and he looks bashful]

And, uh, apparently I am hungry.

[weenwoon]

That makes two of us, then! Drop off the mail back at our dorms and meet here again in fifteen minutes?

[1istheloneliest]

That works.

[and letting go of Levity's hand to zip off and get ready!]

[weenwoon]

[First! Date! When Hardy gets back, Levity is there in his going out clothes, fiddling with his phone as he waits.]

Hey.

[1istheloneliest]

Hi. Guess we both had the same thought.

[he has also changed from his workout clothes to a real outfit]

[weenwoon]

It makes sense, doesn't it? And I'm too sober to go out in my bedtime clothes again.

[He chuckles, offering his hand again.]

You look really nice. Though I must say the tracksuit is cute, too.

[1istheloneliest]

So much easier to go out wearing whatever when you're not sober. Comfort becomes king.

[taking Levity's hand and interlacing their fingers]

Thanks. You look great.

[his ears turn red]

I think the tracksuit makes me look like a typical jock.

[weenwoon]

[Cute!! Levity can't help smiling, a little flustered as well.]

Thank you. What's a jock?

[1istheloneliest]

Like, a shallow athlete who muscles through everything.

[weenwoon]

[Oh. A rude word...]

You don't seem like that to me at all, for what it's worth.
