Tinder but Song-ified

BEAUTIFUL DREAMR

AKA a "Tinder" type meme! This one is not strictly romantic, so "✓" can just mean the character is interested in the other for whatever reason. Find a good image, c/p the form, and tag away! Even though this is an OOC meme so you know whatever goes, if you want an IC reason why they're in it, can blame the journals for making the entry. Or another character. IT'S A MEME.

EMET-SELCH (12,000+)

I'm looking for someone who can challenge me. Please do not message if you are the sort of person who prefers an easy, agreeable experience. As I am dedicated to my work, you may be required to remind me to rest, as well as take proper meals.

My idea of a perfect date is a nice dinner before we go to the theater together. I expect you to participate in conversation about the play afterwards as well as to have an opinion. Our talks have a high probability of going late into the night.

You seem like you're as fun as a bottle of well-aged fine wine.

[recreator]

"Fun" is not a word I would use to describe such a vintage.

[You're calling him old. Don't deny it.]

[kikuichi]

✓

Oh, a challenge you say? I wouldn't know if I can give it, but I'm open to going out for a date.

[recreator]

A challenge I will accept.

Yet despite my more troublesome half's literary efforts, I am NOT seeking further companionship.

[kikuichi]

I hope to meet your expectations.

Oh, I understand. I can stick with forming friendships and exchanging tales.

[And if it turns out fruitful with intelligence? He'd be delighted.]

[recreator]

[He sincerely doubts his expectations will be met, but Emet-Selch won't deny anyone the opportunity to try. Who knows? Perhaps they will find themselves pleasantly surprised whilst "exchanging tales".]

What did you say your former profession was?

["Retired old man" is not, after all, terribly specific - but it is enviable.]

[kikuichi]

Oh, I haven't say anything yet. Just a simple former government employee.

[Technically, he still answers to the government if they ever call for him. It's just easier to play the "retired old man" act right now.

... And he doesn't feel like explaining, really.]

[recreator]

[Familiar territory. And a line of work he has personal experience with.]

As someone who has worked alongside a great many former government employees and civil servants, I assure you such a post is not as simple as you would otherwise attempt to make it sound.

At the very least, I suppose this will make it easier to find something to talk about.

My, how could I not with such a wonderfully written entry?

[recreator]

You did this.

[Not a question; a statement of fact. Though he does perhaps appreciate that Hythlodaeus has proudly and publicly outed himself to save him the trouble.]

[nomoresharks]

I can't be the only one insisting you get some rest. Was it not accurate enough?

[recreator]

I receive more than an ample amount of rest -- no thanks to your late-night matchmaking campaign.

[There is a delay, and then despite himself:]

What do you mean?

[nomoresharks]

I'll not deny a little mischief may have gone into my efforts, but I did labor to provide the world with an accurate picture of yourself, likes and dislikes included.

While I concede I've not nearly listed all there is to the most illustrious Emet-Selch, I can only hope I did you justice.

[recreator]

[...]

[Well, it isn't as if anything he wrote was a lie or a gross exaggeration of his character. ...Still! Hythlodaeus's mischief needs to be managed. Promptly.]

The world need not be provided an accurate picture. I am not wanting for a caretaker nor the sort of company your words would imply.

[She doesn't have to explain herself.]

[recreator]

[He's far from surprised.]

What date? I like theater!

[recreator]

No date.

But if you should like to go to the theater again, I will go with you.

[zomboii]

Yes please! Like theatre lots

[recreator]

[Nevermind that this sounds like a date - of a perfectly innocent sort, since someone needs to properly educate the boy on the joys and triumphs of the stage.]

[And nevermind that hearing someone say they "like theatre lots" makes his heart happy. Just a little.]

Fine.

I believe a new show is about to begin for the winter holiday. We'll go on opening night. The mood is always best then because it will be the first time the actors can finally show everyone what they have been working so hard to put together.

[zomboii]

[ face it, Emet-Selch

Yoooouu looove hiiiiim (as a nephew/son) ]

Opening night first show? Special show?

[recreator]

[He will only face that knowledge when he's made his mind up to do so.]

Yes.

The actors' friends will be in attendance to show their support. Lots of excitement and enthusiasm. It is the first time the actors can perform a complete show after undergoing many rehearsals - and making any number of changes and revisions to the script. (ie., to the story, the movements and dance, etc.)

Of course the first show would then be a special one.
