Maybe I should title all my memes as “keep Esti’s brain from scrambling”

[estirose]

Snagged from Jadelennox:

Give me a character’s name and I will tell you three reasons why it would be terrible to try to date them, have sex with them, or be in a long-term relationship with them.

For an extra challenge, pick characters you know I’m fond of. Anyone can tell you reasons not to date Cthulhu, after all.

(On my end, you can include OCs.)

I thought I’d warm myself with an example: Suzuki Mio of Kiva.

Mio would be terrible because she doesn’t have a horde of self-confidence. She needs someone to give her a spine, or help her find where she managed to misplace it this time. This would drive me crazy, to be honest.

She’s awfully driven given a chance. She’s not terribly subtle when she does find said spine, and if she thinks you should do something, she will bother you until you do what she wants. Including fraticide. And she will decide sometimes to do things herself.

And of course, something that’s beyond her control is that she’s a Fangire Queen. Which means you’d either have to be King yourself and brave all the dangers of that or find a way not to get killed by the King

....I was going to do it myself but then I realized all the characters I liked would be,

1. Don't stick it in the crazy.
2. Seriously, don't stick it in the crazy.
3. ESPECIALLY do not marry the crazy after you stick it in.



Uhhhhhh .... Retsu or Gou from Geki!

[estirose]

*laughs* Yeah. (I have this image of getting stuck with Tendou somehow.)

Anyway, will get back to you on Retsu or Gou from Geki, as I haven't watched it in quite a while. :(

Gai.

He's a nice guy, but he's more interested in knowing everything there is to know about a particular topic than anything else, and wouldn't pay much attention to, say, someone he's dating. Unless you wanted to base a relationship exclusively on Super Sentai knowledge.

Even when he's focused on other things, he's very, very energetic. Unless you want someone who acts like he's on a bit of a sugar high, he can get annoying very, very fast. Not to mention that his face is very expressive to go with the rest of him.

He charges forward when he should be running to safety. While that's a nice trait for a Ranger, I'd be worrying a lot for him every time the guy went into battle. (Of course, he's also about half my age, so he's young enough to be my kid.)

I don't think, even if you are also a fan, it's a good idea to base a relationship on trivia exclusively. It would get frustrating quickly.

And even when he's not, since you never know when he could spot a child in need and decide to get himself killed.

Next meme can be about parenting, then. :3

Yeah. I can understand repetitive. I'm repetitive. I try not to be, but I'm not sure he's old enough to understand. *wry grin*

It would definitely be "Gai, dear, could you please stop saving the world long enough for us to finish our date?"

(Of course, again, he's way too young for me.)

*realizes she hasn't done her daily fic. Oops.*

[reka]

Once people are both functioning adults and past the weird not-quite-independent stage, age differences seem less huge, I think. But yeah, dating Gai would make me feel old, despite the fact that I'm physically not much older than he is.

I think all fans can be repetitive. I can be, for one. And nobody knows what I'm talking about either.

Quick, you still have time before midnight! PST is magic.

[estirose]

Gai would distinctly make me feel old. :) He's repetitive with the energy to match.

And I managed fic. :)
