10 things for 10 people meme!

[lorentzian]

Just a quick little ditty of a meme to break up all the other plotty stuff going on. :) (Stolen and slightly modified from Vatheon!)

10 Things for 10 People

→ Post with your character ICly saying ten different things to ten different people.

→ Or eight things to eight people, or five things to five people. There's no hard or fast limit.

→ You can say things your character wants to say, things your character refuses to say, thoughts or beliefs about other people, secrets...

→ But you can't say who those people are! No naming names.

→ (Example: "I've always liked you, but I can't tell you that.")

→ React to everyone ICly. Make guesses or reassure or whatever. And have fun!

1. Just resolve to be happy, mate. Be happy with it. With her. You're as much a child of the universe as I.

2. Your axes grow mightier by the year, I swear it. What's your secret, then? Come come. Out with it.

3. If she ever does consent, will you stand beside me, mate?

4. I don't regret asking you. Not one day do I regret it.

5. Under different circumstances? I think we could have had quite the adventures in bed together.

6. Not sure if I like you, you great gigantic lummox. Not sure I don't like you, either.

7. You're the sweetest lamb, darling. Sorry for what I've said, but a man wants to look after you.

8. Get stuffed. It's all your fault and I shan't forget.

9. I get to wondering sometimes what you'd look like with hair. You know. During those unoccupied moments.

10. One day we will meet, you great caped misalignment of the universe. And on that day? On that day I shall strike a blow against justice. Bastard.

[ oh, she'll eye 5 up until the cows come home but she won't touch it. not yet. ]

So stop acting like you regret it. [ she says -- confidently -- as if she assumes she could only ever be right about what's being said. ]

[all7seas]

What? Who's acting like he regrets it?! I don't!

[herotypical]

How'm I ever supposed to be won over if you keep telling me it was a joke? A good luck ring?

[all7seas]

Ah.




That's only because you regret it.

[herotypical]

Yes. That's right. [ sarcasm. ] I absolutely regret having someone make me feel so absolutely loved that they might want to take a forever just to wallow in that love.

I don't regret being asked. [ she only regrets being unable to accept. now. it's been a journey. buffy usually needs time to come to terms with just about everything. ]

[all7seas]

................................Oh.

[herotypical]

Asking-regret wouldn't lead a gal to still wear the ring, however wrongly. Right?

[all7seas]

A half-hearted shrug. "Ladies love rings."

[herotypical]

"Yeah? Well. Ladies like me love accessorizing. And I've worn that sucker with outfits it definitely clashed with. There's your sign."

[all7seas]

"It's a good sign. I'll take it, eh? And you must take it that I don't regret."

[herotypical]

"I probably owe you an answer. Soon."

[all7seas]

"I --



There's no owing. None. It's an answer, not a debt."

[herotypical]

"Everyone else disagrees.

Well -- okay. Maybe not everyone."

[all7seas]

"All the time in the world," he said simply. It meant something different now. No pressure. None. Do it in your own time, no one else's.

[herotypical]

"Until you disappear and then there really is something to regret."

[all7seas]

"Annie? No. That is not....that is not a reason."

He could make no promises on that front. None at all.

"Please let that not be a reason."

[herotypical]

If it wasn't a reason? She'd likely never say yes. But it needn't be the biggest reason. Nor the most reasonable reason. Just...a reason. A measly little reason.

"I'm sure I could come up with others. If I tried. Reasons."

[all7seas]

"Such as?"

[herotypical]

"Such as loving you. Such as having been well and truly touched by the proposal itself. Such as wanting a cute little cottage of our own some day once it's...convenient to leave seven."

[theoniongirl]

[oh, Jack]

I know.
