another starter for @wefxundwonderland

“ i need your advice on something — ” finn sighs as he breaks the quiet of a meal he's barely touched, fork pushing the food absentmindedly round his plate as brown eyes flick up to rest on his sister. “ i think i'm gonna ask xander to marry me. ” it's not a simple statement and yet for a moment it sounds like one, the decision in no part the one that he's unsure about when even the words said aloud are enough to flick an involuntary smile to his lips. “ but i... well, i was thinking that i should tell mom and dad. you know, just — rather than them hear about it from someone else in a few months time. ” for a brief moment he's not certain what the question is, sure there's more than one buried in the seemingly casual suggestion. “ you reckon they'd ever want to know? ”

CLOSED STARTER for @ivygrcws <3

he's not sure what made him introduce himself, the moment of panic when met with familiar features short-circuiting something in his brain as he'd stuck his hand out and told them his name's finn. he's not actually heard anything since, mind elsewhere as the conversation is filled by a mutual friend who hadn't been wrong in their assertion the two of them would get along, though it's very clear they don't know how well. his throat clears softly as the third party finally leaves, smile forced to his features as fingers push back through messy hair. “ i'm sorry, i don't know why i — ” his gestures absently behind them. “ you're back. ” it's meant to be an observation, though it comes out as a question when he has to force down the faint hope it's for longer than a quick visit.

CLOSED STARTER for @aperturcs <3

he's in the middle of typing a message when the conversation from the man in the queue ahead of him can't help but drift back to finn. light eyes lift to the figure in front, the words on the screen momentarily forgotten as he glances over the all too familiar head of hair. he'd know the voice anywhere, even now. still, he gives himself a moment to be sure as the other male looks for his wallet, smile tugging at the far edges of his lips in confirmation it's exactly who finn thinks it is. “ i can get it. ” he interrupts, stepping forward to offer the waitress his own coffee order before moving to pay for them both. “ i'm sure it's my round anyway. ” the joking does little to help the way his heart skips a beat as he meets the familiar gaze. it's been longer that finn sometimes likes to remember, but it's still dante, his own features softening as he glances over the older version of the other male. “ hi. ”

closed starter for @drwstars (loosely of based on this)

“ how many times have you guys hung out now? ” he does his best to keep the question light, casual, as if finn isn't already aware the answer is a lot. and frequently. enough that he's slowly becoming familiar with the twist in his chest at each mention of the others' next date. “ do i get to meet him? ” does he want to? not at all. yet there's a morbid fascination. “ i get some sort of veto power, right? like he turns out to be a total asshole and you're distracted by the fact he's good looking? ”
