4, 18, 28 for riya, jorina and meredith!

kees kees thank you!! // lovey dovey prompts

♥ (04) Are there any romantic gestures that your OC hates?

RIYA — i can't think of any that she'd hate, but i think she'd get turned off from someone who declares their love too quickly into dating. she gets it because look at her, but chill out. also leave, immediately, it's not fun anymore lmao 

JORINA — big displays of affection/love in front of lots of people. absolutely get them the fuck away. public serenading, declarations of love, grand gestures, god forbid a proposal. mortifying. hate is strong for this next one but she isn't a huge fan of frequent spontaneous activities/dates, she's too attached to her schedules and routines.  MEREDITH — surprise dates for her as well. she'd prefer having input on the time/place/activity, then there's also the fact she's constantly busy and doesn't like to reschedule things (worries she'll come off noncommittal or having a negative opinion on the task/event blah blah).

♥ (18) Does your OC have a “type”?

RIYA — she's all over the place. i like to think if you looked at a list of everybody she's dated/hooked up with that you'd be convinced it belonged to at least two different people's romantic histories. but also!! to give an answer: did make the goof that we discovered in-game that riya's got a thing for guys who are losers and women who are girlbosses. 

JORINA — she was bullied like a week into character creation with the decision that it'd be hysterical if her type was wild cards. the kind of reckless and spontaneous that is so opposite of her whole way of life that she'd be fucking baffled to discover she actually Likes it in someone. 

MEREDITH — simplest way to describe hers would be through those tropes like the golden retriever, the archetypal hero, the cinnamon roll, things along those lines that you immediately know what they're about. also somewhere along the way discovered that she has a thing for guys with soft tummies, bonus points if they've got muscles but that's not a requirement she'll still be 👀 

♥ (28) What is something unconventional that your OC thinks is romantic?

RIYA — giving assistance with her beauty/self-care efforts!! brushing her hair for her, applying cosmetics, engaging with her debates on what outfit/accessory is best, giving her a massage, etc etc. it shows that her interest in these things aren't being dismissed, or labelled as frivolous or superficial.

JORINA — i think she'd enjoy learning things together?? like perfecting a recipe or becoming skilled at a certain dance or anything in between, it's the time spent together with collaboration and education that she finds some warmth in. MEREDITH — being brought food or drink while she's working. it's a gesture that shows how they're thinking of and care for her no matter the time of day, fills her with the warm and fuzzies.
