[goldencobra]

I saw this at another game and it amused me enough that I decided to steal it and post it here for the amusement of our cast.

So, here you go~

SHOUT YOUR CONFESSIONS MEME!!!

1. Post your character shouting a confession. ALL CAPS LOCK, ALL THE TIME.
2. ICly react to others' confessions.
3. That's it. That's the meme.

Okay yeah that would be rude.

Maybe I'll get to meet him.

[didnotwant]

You're optimistic.

[ That gets a merry sounding laugh. ]

I like that, actually. I tend to be.... less than that.

[dreams_dont_die]

[ That gets her another smile, lopsided and sweet. ]

I'm famous for my optimism.

That's not always what people call it, but it's what they mean.

[ Many of the things he gets called are far less complimentary than 'optimistic'. 'Insane' is probably one of the nicer descriptions. But ... it comes down to optimistic in the end. ]

[didnotwant]

[ Damn he's cute. ]

Being optimistic can be good. Means you're more likely to see the good parts of a situation. I'm.... working on how I view things.

... You mean you do it on purpose?

Way to rock my world, Aeryn Sun. And not in the way I would have liked.

[dreams_dont_die]

You should. Optimism shows you a better world.

[ Even when everyone around you says it's impossible. Or that you're crazy. Dylan refuses to accept either.

Even talking about it brightens his eyes and his demeanor. ]

It's a good place to be.

[and_she_waited]

[ She's glad to have the smile. Still... ]

How 'bout now? I may not know you from when you are, and you may not know me. But I do know the Doctor, and I know he never gives up. You're a right sight when you're moping about. Chin up, Doctor. Look at how many people on this boat love you already.

You'll figure it out, and when you do you won't have to be alone.

[and_she_waited]

[ More laughter. ]

Roguish? Really? Not with that baby face. You are kind of adorable, though.

[and_she_waited]

Femme fatale?

Honestly?

[ She snickers. ]

You aren't scared of a woman who could kill you with her pinkie?

[tea_earlgrey_hot]

[ He smiles. ]

My apologies, I had not meant that as an insult.

The engineers aboard the Enterprise are some of the best in Starfleet. I am confident the ship is in very good hands.

One of my most trusted officers is what you would call an AI, and I recognize his value and appreciate him greatly. Perhaps this is like the relationship you share with your ship, Captain Hunt.

[stark_spangled]

Big believer in the scientific method, huh?

[stark_spangled]

[ Steve laughs. ]

Mr. Harper's a smarter man than he's given credit for.

[stark_spangled]

[ Dryly: ] Thanks.

[ He's just going to go die of embarrassment now, OK? Great. ]

[abyssum_invocat]

We're not trying to make your life hard. It's just that you attract people with...those problems.

[ She goes for a smile, and mostly succeeds; it's the same triangular expression she had as a child, but her face has grown into it quite prettily. She's just not nearly as confident with it anymore. ] You're doing okay talking to me, Steve. I'm a girl.

[stark_spangled]

[ Thinks honestly hard on that, as if Tyr has just given him the answer to life, the universe, and everything. ]

So you're saying that by being terrible they're actually being... really good friends? Huh. I guess I have learned a lot about the internet from Clint and Tony.

It's the constant inquiries into my love life that I really question.

[stark_spangled]

[ It's the fact that she scares the hell out of him that he came to respect and admire her so much. ]

Keep up with me? Peggy, you're in the lead car, I'm just somewhere in the middle.

[ He smiles and ducks his head. ]

You know, boots or pumps don't make much difference to me. You look good no matter what you have on your feet. Or your bod-- I mean, what you wear. You look, um. You always look nice. Better than nice.

[ He rubs the back of his neck. ]

[stark_spangled]

[ He smiles, a little shy, a little self-deprecating, more than a little amused. He takes the words to heart, even if he's edging toward levity when he answers. ]

You think I'm cute?

Being myself is what I'm afraid of. That didn't exactly get me a lot of second dates before the war. Didn't exactly get me a lot of first dates, either.

But, uh. Coffee I can do. Just so long as you don't send me into a Starbucks for a double shot iced mocha espresso whipped strawberry-pumpkin frappathingo. That I'm liable to get wrong.

[stark_spangled]

Of course.

[ He smiles. Sounds familiar. ]

Guys like you and I always know the right thing to say. So you, uh. You probably don't need a book like that. What are you even doing here? Don't you have three dates lined up for tonight?

[stark_spangled]

Maybe you're not trying, but I'm pretty sure the same doesn't go for everyone.

[ At least it's good-humored grousing. Steve can take a joke, he just needs to update his revenge repertoire.

He hesitates. He's noticed that she's grown up to be very pretty, but that doesn't really surprise him. ]

This is OK to you?

[spideys]

[ laughing ]

Right. My schedule's totally busy, filled with ....... dates.

Wow, I can't even joke about this right.

[ facepalm! ]

[abyssum_invocat]

I can't speak for Bucky. [ She says it almost primly, though there's a tiny smile--which is immense progress--playing around her mouth. And she nods at Steve. ]

This is okay to me. I don't mind you practicing on me.

[ikissdhimbck]

[ Kate pillows her chin, giving Jim a flat look. ]

Oh, Jim. I already know you're a, ah — musical theater kinda fella.

[waco_jim]

Hey, not exclusively.

[He does action sequences, too.]

Uh, that's not it, though. I, um...I'm a fictional character, Kate. The kind who's aware of that fact.

[dreams_dont_die]

[ Dylan gives a small laugh. ]

My crew may be unconventional, but they're some of the best people I've ever known.

[ He considers Picard's words, then nods. ]

I believe so. Andromeda is one of my most trusted friends and advisers.

[stark_spangled]

[ Steve also laughs. ]

Have you thought about a barbershop quartet?

I wouldn't worry, all of my jokes are outdated. But I tell you what, any dame over the age of eighty thinks I'm a regular Bob Hope.

[ Pause. ]

Which is another outdated joke.
