Hiatus. I am going through a life changing event right now.

[kagaira]

My MM game reset itself and I hadn't saved in 2 days. I don't even feel like playing anymore.

[kagaira]

For the anon, #1&8!

Thank you anon. I will get back into the story writing real soon!

[kagaira]

This is for @smoreseater

Guy number one walked in, his hands were straightening his already perfect tie. It was clear he was a business man and his job was very important to him. She began to wonder if his smile was fake as well. She didn’t dwell long before the next guy walked in.

He was also wearing a business suit, his smile was more genuine. He had a calm feeling to his appearance, but behind his glasses she could see he had secrets.

She was instantly distracted by the next guy. She did a double take, did he have an eye patch?

Guy number 4 distracted her with his kind smile, she felt safe around him. It didn’t surprise her to catch a badge out of the corner of his eye.

Guy number 5 gave her a business man feel. Part of her wanted to sigh, what kind of adventure would come from a man who sits behind a desk all day?

Guy number 6 was very tall, he seemed very laid back, possibly shy as well, he sat away from everyone else.

Guy number 7 was not shy about hiding his gun, he also wasn’t shy about hiding his badge. She smiled at the cop, but he didn’t smile back. Instead he sat where he could watch everyone.

And then the next guy walked in, her jaw dropped. She instantly recognized him, she had seen him on TV before, he was famous and he was here to meet her.

Guy number 9 was just as dazzling, he was also famous, she had seen him on TV as well.

Guy number 10 looked like he wasn’t sure if he was suppose to be there. He looked at a piece of paper in his hand, then looked around. He sighed, and found a seat.

Time to choose, whose it going to be?

[kagaira]

I think I have given a fair amount of time to anon to pick her 2 people. So anon's list is up for grabs. First person who sends me their 2 choices will get a story.

[kagaira]

@smoreseater, @tsunderelovestruck, and @chiapeto: Look out for your list tomorrow.

After that I will get started on your mystery dates, starting with @obiwanmcprobie and @hifftn

[kagaira]

For @hotcocosharing The first guy walked in wearing a lab coat, she saw the hospital badge and wondered if he came here straight from his shift. She smiled at his dedication, and he smiled back. "Heeyyyyy!" The next guy was loud, he had a smug look on his face, but the minute he locked eyes with her, a blush crept up his cheeks. "What?" She was stopped from saying anything by the next guy. Wrapping his arm around her shoulder and pulling her close. "Hey honey." "Hey there lass!" The next guy threw his arm around her other shoulder, he smelled of sea and booze. Guy 5 walked in noticing her sandwiched between the other 2 guys he nodded at her and took a seat. His cheeks were also a bit pink, was he embarrassed seeing her like that? Guy number 6 smiled at her, "hey cutie." He winked. Did he have a gun in his pocket or was she seeing things? Guy 7 was the first guy to come to her rescue. He had a cute little pout as he pulled her from between the two men. She didn't have time to say thank you before the next guy walked in. She was dazzled by his charming smile, his nice clothes, and he smelled like flowers. He winked at her and found a chair to sit down in. Guy number 9 didn't look sweet at all, a cruel smile played on his lips like she was there for his amusement. Guy 10 was even worse, the room felt heavy as he glared at everyone in the room. Despite that feeling, it was time to pick her 2 guys.

[kagaira]

i want to participate in your game? how do i do that?

Ok anonGuy number 1 walked in, dressed to perfection. He went to greet her with perfect manners only to be interrupted by the next guy.He snapped a photo. "You should have seen the look on your face." His own smile was carefree."Pardon me." Guy number 3 walked in. His smile was soft, and when he walked he looked like he was floating, every move was perfectly in sync.Guy number 4 walked in on his cell phone, "Can we make this quick? I'm in a hurry."While guy number 5 just looked annoyed and grumpy. He sat on the couch with his arms crossed, cigarette playing on his lips.At least guy number 6 had a smile on his face. His smile was that of an actor or a model, and his face looked familiar, maybe he was famous after all.Guy number 7 also walked in with a smile. He was about to say something as he tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, but guy number 8 cut in between them."Hey miss." He winked at her.She almost missed guy number 9 walk in without a word, just sat down and pulled a cigarette out of his pocket.She would have said something but guy number 10 walked in coughing, "dying." He said between coughs.So anon... Whose it going to be? Pick 2.

For @otomejesus

Guy number 1 walked in, without a word he sat in a chair. “Human I am a god, bow before me.”

Before she could react the next guy walked in, he was carrying a bowl of ramen. He sat down and slurped his noodles without a word.

The next guy couldn’t walk in fast enough. He had a carefree smile, dressed smart but casual. She could tell he was the type she could easily get along with. He smiled at her, with a cigarette still in his mouth.

Guy number 4 didn’t look quite as happy. “Um you have flour on your cheek.” She told him.

“Move.” The next guy spoke in a harsh tone to both of them. Pushing his way in-between the two of them.

She began to stumble backwards, but a pair of strong arms supported her from behind. The next guy had joined the group at the right time. She could see his badge in his pocket. Relief washed over her as she realized he only had good intentions. The man helped her too her feet, without a word and sat down.

Guy number 7 walked in, expressionless. He was sharply dressed, and she could tell everything he owned was custom made just for him. Probably right even down to the cologne he was wearing.

At least guy number 8 was another cheerful one. He immediately went in for a hug. He winked at her, “We’ll have a good time.” He whispered in her ear.

The next guy walked in, “I think I was here before. Am I going in circles?” He looked around before taking a seat.

Finally the last guy walked in. Just from the clothes he was wearing, and his hair she knew he was a prince. He might have been able to keep his cool, but she was grinning from ear to ear.

But now she had to pick her 2 guys.

[kagaira]

For @teresa-yukibito

Guy number 1 walked in he had a charming smile, fluffy hair, did he have paint on his pants?

She could only dwell for a moment on the first guy before the next guy walked in. He had a boyish smile, his eyes were gentle. Despite his light colored clothing she could see the pet hair on his shirt.

Guy number 3 was younger, he looked like he had just come from a workout. He wiped the sweat from his brow and put glasses on.

Guy number 4 walked in, he huffed, throwing himself on one of the couches. "I'm a prince, I shouldn't have to compete with other guys." He glared, "I'm the right choice."

Guy number 5 had a gorgeous smile, he smelled faintly of cigarettes, and she thought she noticed a hospital badge.

The next guy walked in with confidence. Dressed in a business suit she could tell he meant business.

Guy number 7 did not look happy to be there, he looked annoyed and sat furthest away possible.

Guy number 8 walked right over to her, setting a beautiful cocktail in front of her, as he leaned next to her she could smell the sea on him. Although he didn’t smile at her, she could tell he was someone who would care for her.

The next guy had shaggy hair, that looked very soft, he also looked disorganized and out of sorts as he pulled a crumbled piece of paper out of his pocket. Did she catch a glimpse of a badge. Is that a gun under his jacket?

She couldn’t linger too long as the last guy walked in. Big personality that lite up the room. He looked like a model or tv personality, someone famous or almost famous. She didn’t have time to figure it out.

It’s time to pick. Who are your 2?

[kagaira]

This one is for @hifftn The first guy walked into the room, he wore sunglasses but had a charming smile, he looked like a model. Her heart fluttered at the thought of such a hot guy going on a date with her. But then guy number 2 walked in, just as handsome, and he had the most beautiful skin and hands. She could tell, he really took care of himself! Guy number 3 looked playful, and she couldn't stop staring at his bright red hair! Then guy 4 walked in, and the room instantly went quiet, his presence was overwhelming. She could tell he was a man of few words. The next guy had a magazine in his hands, he instantly went in for a hug, but she backed up quickly. Who brings a magazine to a blind date? The guy behind him laughed, "rejected I see. Don't scare the ladies." He took her hand and kissed the top of it. "Don't worry I'll protect you." He winked. Guy number 7 was also snickering. He winked at her. Wrapping his arm around her shoulder, leaning in so his breath tickled her ear. "I'll show you how a man is suppose to treat a lady." Guy number 8 put his hand on guy number 7's shoulder. "You're making her nervous." His genuine smile, calmed her down. And he smelled sweet. Guy number 9 also had a sweet smile. She instantly could feel safe with him, like he wouldn't make a move on her until they were comfortable with each other. He felt brotherly to her, but was that what she wanted? Did she want safe or did she want dangerous? She glanced at guy number 4. The last guy also had fiery red hair, he was tall, built, unlike the other red head, but something about him seemed to say, "we'll have fun together." It was time for her to pick the 2 guys.

[kagaira]

I want to play a game with Voltage guys:

Who wants to be my first volunteer?

[otomejesus]

Oh! what kind of game?

[kagaira]

Basically I’ll give you 10 guys, but be very vague about who they are. You pick 2 who you want to get to know better!

Then I’ll write a Drabble about you and the 2 guys on a mini date.

You can then either choose to date 1 or dump them both then I’ll write a response.

[kagaira]

For @obiwanmcprobie Guy number 1 walks in he removed his leather jacket. The air got chilly. He sat down in silence. Guy number 2 walked in yawning. "I'm sleepy." Guy number 3 looked annoyed. Scoffing. "I'm a prince." The 4th guy walked in, it was about time the air felt lighter, a smirk played on his lips, until she felt like she needed to tell him to stop undressing her with his eyes. Another awkward guy walked in, handsome. Was he carrying a gun? A cop perhaps? While she looked at the last guy, another one snuck in behind him, taking a seat, not saying a word. Another shy one? What was the deal. This guy was tall, and quiet like a cat. Finally the awkward silence was broken as guy number 7 walked in. He smirked at her, walking over to her and tilting her chin upwards forcing her to meet his gaze. The next new guy interjected, grabbing his wrist and forcing him away. She couldn't help but giggle. Guy number 8 was skinny, and smaller than guy number 7, but held his own. Wait was that a badge she saw. Another cop!? Guy number 9 walked in and hugged her. He smelled good, like he was around food. She could feel his muscles through his shirt, strong type. She felt comfortable around him, he seemed sweet, almost brotherly like. While she was hugging him, the last guy walked in. Did he have a soccer ball in his hand? So many choices, who would she pick? (Remember pick 2)

[kagaira]

I want to play a game with Voltage guys:

Who wants to be my first volunteer?

[obiwanmcprobie]

Okay, I’ll be brave (and quite possibly stupid lol)

[kagaira]

Awesome! Ok so here is the rules: I’m going to give you 10 guys, but be very vague about who they are. You pick 2 who you want to get to know better!

Then I’ll write a Drabble about you and the 2 guys on a mini date.

You can then either choose to date 1 or dump them both. I’ll write a response. XD

[obiwanmcprobie]

Oh god, please don’t let me pick Ota. But this sound incredibly fun!! 

[kagaira]

I'm not mean! So I won't give Ota as an option.
