the 『 make me choose 』 meme



► Post with your characters.

► Other characters ICly respond, making them choose between two things. (e.g. boxers or briefs? De Chima or Nonah? Given the choice between saving X and Y, who would you pull out of a fire first?)

▶ Be as serious or silly as you want, have other characters judge each other's decisions, let the good times roll etc.

[drizzle]

Long with frills or short with straps?

[thirdprogenitor]

How specific to ask.

Long. Though short makes it easier for movement.

[ And killing, whoops. ]

[drizzle]

[There's a light chuckle in her observation.]

I can tell from the outfit you usually wear. It seems comfortable, but I don't think I would be able to pull it off like you do.

[....she may or may not already plotting something...]

Okay, next question: black or red?

[thirdprogenitor]

[ These questions are very... strange. ]

Black. Though red does a better job at not showing blood as easily.

[drizzle]

In other words, black is your preferred color, but you prefer red to keep stains out of sight?

[Right. Let's refer to blood as just stains. Then again, it just may be for vampires.]

[thirdprogenitor]

Something like that. Pink is also nice.

[ But why does she care..? ]

[drizzle]

I always knew that pink was one of your favorites, but I think it's best to wear colors that help enhance your natural beauty. Black and red seems to really help!

[To maybe....someday....buy her a dress??? Or convince her to go shopping. Play dress up with? Maybe. Hopefully. Just let her get to know you better Krul!]

Have you found other colors that you like? Other than black, red, and pink? I kinda think you'd look great in purple or blue too.

[thirdprogenitor]

[ Oh, Nike... ]

I don't bother dwelling on such things.

[drizzle]

Why not? Don't you enjoy it?

[thirdprogenitor]

I have more important matters to dwell on.

[drizzle]

...important matters from home?

[thirdprogenitor]

Where else?

[ Because it's not like she'll actually help anyone here. ]

[drizzle]

[She imagine it to be the case, but she didn't know much about the other girl to make that guess. Not with confidence, at least.]

Then...

[Give her a moment. She's kinda nervous here.]

Would it be okay to invite you out every once in a while? I won't ask about the important issues you're thinking about, but...I'd like to help you get the chance to find time to, you know, go out, get some fresh air, and take a break.

Plus, it won't hurt in wanting to discover new styles, right?

[thirdprogenitor]

[ Well this is... strange. No one ever really asks to be around her lest it's done out of wanting to become close to her in a sense so that her power may be stripped of her-- a betrayal of sorts. Which, with having had experience with over as long as she's been around, she's wary over such an invite. ]

Why do you care?

[drizzle]

Well...

[Nike will begin to search for her words, trying to be careful with them. It was clear the other girl's defenses were high, so just any response won't do. All she can do is speak from the heart and be as open about it as possible.]

I know what's it like to have a lot on your mind. About home. There's a lot of unfinished business that I need to take care of too. But, even so, I understand that I need to focus on the present as much as the future. It may be...exciting to do something new here, you know? Something you wouldn't do back home or can't. Something that will help you relax and...just give you a moment to reflect on other concerns before returning to the usual ones again.

[And with a sheepish smile.]

And it sounds like fun too. Being able to do that sort of thing with someone. I rarely get the chance to hang out with other girls too.

[thirdprogenitor]

[ Speak from the heart? Oh no...

But, Krul will just smile a little to herself. ]

Really? Do you hang out with a lot of vampires, too?

[drizzle]

Mika is one, and we hang out whenever our schedules allow it.

[Not to mention Kanaya is another vampire she hangs out with on a regular basis too; however she has no idea she is one. Not that it matters to her.]

Why?

[thirdprogenitor]

[ Oh, familiar with her dear difficult son in that regard? That makes Krul smile just a teensy bit more then. ]

Because Mika is my difficult son.

1/2

[drizzle]

[Wait.

Wait.

Wait......

That was all her brain could say and process because. Reasons.]

[drizzle]

[And here comes the return of her brain. Please enjoy your regularly schedule programm--]

Wait, wait, wait! Hold on!

Do you mean the actual sense or in the pretend sense?

[SHE IS SO VERY CURIOUS TO KNOW!]

[thirdprogenitor]

Why would anyone pretend to be such a thing?

[ Honestly. Humans are so weird. ]

[drizzle]

Because everyone likes to play house every once in a while....?

[But it was easy to note that she was being completely serious over the matter too. Nike will observe the younger girl, or what she thought was younger, a while longer.]

...then, you're really his mom? Adopted, right? [With a small smile.] Only a true parent would refer to their children as difficult whenever they have a strong personality.
