UTTERLY SMITTEN meme

Because sometimes, you want to play out goofy, absolutely adorable adoration no matter your character.

You don't have a crush. You're not in love. But you wish you had either of those things, because they're the lesser of all evils. Instead, you have it oh so bad. You're smitten, kitten. Why, every little thing this special person does is magic! Their looks, their personality, their smile - or lack thereof - are the most beautiful you've ever seen. And maybe they're even nice to you when you totally don't deserve it! Whether your acquaintances would describe you as "soft-hearted" or "hard-ass pain in my ass," there's hardly been one as taken as you. Just looking at them makes you weak at the knees, and you think those butterflies in your stomach may be staging a revolt.

Damn it, it's disgusting.

No matter if you're a grown-ass adult or a school kid, you'll feel...uhm, like a school kid. Of course, you probably shouldn't pull any pigtails. Instead, put those conflicting emotions to good use. Admire your object of affection from afar. Hang out with them as much as you can. Be awkward as only you can. Enjoy being in their presence or being close to them because afhhdhflfh they're so pretty and so aaaaahh you're ensnared. Be super nice to them. Dote on them because they're so darn cute. Fulfilling their every whim will get you in good!

Or be a terrible tsundere, as that's all some of you assholes know how to do. Eventually, you'll get over your denial and realize, grizzled warrior-king or megalomaniacal god or bitchy brat you are, you're feeling flushed.

HOW TO PLAY

Comment with your character, preference, and what role you'd like to play.
Cutesy, emotional, kind, or young characters might get smitten easily. But part of the fun is seeing completely stoic, inappropriate, or horrible characters get silly quickened heart beats. Of course, said stoic, inappropriate, or horrible characters getting crushed on is just as funny.
RNG for a prompt or just go nuts.

POSITION

Smitten: Be cool, be cool - oh god they're so precious you're going to vomit.
Smitten...On?: You're the one who's cast a spell, willing or unwittingly.

SITUATION

Not Together...Yet: Is senpai going to notice you?
Together: Aren't you so lucky to have such an amazing boyfriend or girlfriend or friendfriend?
Never: A forbidden love, you can never be together, GET THIS ANGST SHIT OUT OF HERE.

shit all my icons are gone

... if you dare

i should canon review

[ Amalia had had a normal life once, for a fifteen-year-old girl. A normal life crammed with a hell of a lot of family, but the weirdest thing had been their dog and that was it.

Until the hummingbird with the god complex had come along, and ever since then, she's been meeting the oddest creatures-- not that she'd call Finn "odd", just "interesting".

With her school out for the summer, she was free to harass-- no, visit him more often, which is what she's up to now, lugging a backpack over one shoulder and nearly losing it when she frees a hand to wave. Huitzi, thankfully, is flitting somewhere else at the moment, so she's free of imperious hummingbird commentary for once. ]

Fiiiiiiinn!!

[ fortunately for her, he's an easy harrassment target. For one thing, he's easy to find - he's almost always at home, and not just because he's homeschooled. For another, despite having grown up surrounded by tons of siblings who never give him a break, he remains pretty susceptible to teasing.

Particularly to her brand of it, for some reason. She was coming back today, wasn't she? Finn hadn't really cared about it until now, he swears, but then he got so nervous he rearranged every bookshelf in his room for some reason, which didn't really make him feel better, but did waste quite a bit of time. Honestly, he doesn't even know why he's nervous, considering it's just her and she's annoying at worst, but... ugh. For whatever reason, he couldn't stop thinking about it. (And it didn't help that his sisters kept mockingly calling her his girlfriend, which was just simply not true. Not true at all. What a ludicrous idea.)

Nonetheless, when he hears her call his name while he's sitting on the edge of his front porch half-assedly reading a book, there's no denying that his ears and tail immediately shoot up in interest and what might be happiness. ]

Oh, it's just you...

[ Ama has never had a cat - just that lovingly weird mix of dog that expressed love by slathering you with licks so you wouldn't notice how he'd chewed on your only good pair of shoes - but she knows what a raised tail and ears mean.

And she also knows Finn by now, that his brand of grumpy isn't usually a genuine one (at this point, she's pretty sure he'd been irritated the first few times they'd met). She's seen enough, growing up in a family as large as hers and then facing the prejudice at school, to know sincerity from showing your teeth in a false smile.

So it's why she bounds forward now, takes the small space from porch to ground in a single bounce, and plops beside him with very little fanfare and a slightly grumpy sigh that she doesn't mean at all. ]

Nice to see you, too. If the book's that fun, I can just go home...

[ Except she probably won't. She'd missed him. ]

[ he'd be more concerned that he'd really offended her if she hadn't gone and sat down next to him anyway... still, he feels kind of badly. A little. With a thin sigh, he closes the thick book, letting one short finger keep his place while he scratches his head awkwardly with his other hand. ]

That's not it, I just... I thought there was an emergency! You don't have to shout so loudly. I'll hear you. [ lame not-apology that's not entirely wrong? check. his favorite kind. Yet Finn finds himself still feeling vaguely guilty - does he really want to start this off with a petty grievance? - and so, with an uncertain flick of one ear, he sets the book down next to himself, glancing over at her. ] ... I... Uh, it's good to see you again.

[ ... should he hug her... is that what people do?? he's not good at having friends. ]

[ Ama isn't expecting sudden displays of affection, and definitely won't demand them-- not from Finn, anyway. Nieces, nephews, younger siblings... completely different story, but they tended to attach to any available limb first anyway.

She smiles, though, extending a fist to lightly bump his shoulder. Well, he's trying, she's sure of it. ]

Más alto, Abuela used to say, all the time-- because her hearing wasn't so good, you know? And there's always so many of us that we got used to yelling. It kind of stuck, sorry.

[ And her own sense of enthusiasm probably hadn't helped. She considers it, briefly, keeping her voice softer for the sake of Finn's (adorable and probably soft as hell) ears... maybe. She could avoid yelling, anyway. For now, she lets the backpack slide with a thump beside her, gathering her hair up with one hand (it's hoooot) before she lets it fall again and peers at his book. ]

And what're you reading this time?

[ it's hot, but he's still wearing a vest and a collared shirt, because fashion is important, okay!! the fistbump makes him flinch slightly, but it's just from awkwardness, not fear or dislike or anything like that. Her explanation is accepted with nothing more than a distracted hum. After all, that had just been an excuse for his own socially-maladjusted self, not an actual reason he was annoyed...

Fortunately, she saves Finn from having to figure out a way to spin the conversation on her own. He perks up a little bit, though his tone seems caught between cool nonchalance and bookish excitement (it's probably obvious that one is what he wants to be and one is how he actually feels.) ]

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. It's a way below my level, but it's a classic, so I thought that I should read it.

[ Finn, one of these days you're going to boil alive in your own clothes and it'll be all your fault. But Ama brightens (even more), nodding eagerly. ]

I love that book! I used to think that it'd be great if a tornado came down and swept me off and then I could go to the Emerald City and bring back souvenirs for the family--

[ Ama no. She's at least realizing how inane that sounds, and clearing her throat. ]

... But I was a lot younger then. [ Because fifteen is SO OLD. ] And there's a whole series about Oz... The Marvelous Land of Oz is my favorite. And the one about the... Patchwork Girl?

[ oh no... she's excited about it. And it's kind of... cute?? He blinks his big green eyes at her, feeling a faint warmth rise to his face. No, it's probably just the sun. Because it's warm. He doesn't like cute things, anyway! ]

Yeah, I know. I'm still reading this one, though... So don't tell me any spoilers, okay? [ OBVIOUSLY, she should know this, but he ends up saying it in a slightly pedantic tone, anyway, just to cover up gross feeling potentially welling up. ] I'll probably be done by tomorrow - then we can talk about it.

[ he wants to analyze it!! and yes, he doesn't know anything about it. there are circumstances... he doesn't remember a lot of things. ]

[ Laughing, Ama holds her hands up, placating. Did she fluster him? He looks faintly pink... ] Si, I got it! I'm not gonna say anything about it until tomorrow.

[ Because that's pretty much an invitation to see him tomorrow, right? Her sisters are gonna give her grief, she knows it, and if they don't, the hummingbird definitely will. But she's got a summer to spend, so why not make the most of it and see her friend as often as she can, until he scolds her?

Probably even beyond that, though. ]

[ you caught him... He can only act friendly in the most indirect ways, or it will ruin his cool manly loner look (that he wishes he had.) Finn nods, apparently approving, then goes quiet for a few seconds, resting his head in his hands.

Conversations are hard. ]

... Were you okay in school?

... Yeah. I stayed up late a couple of nights, but I pulled through somehow.

[ Studying hard was never actually an issue for Ama, despite her daredevil reputation. School was far too important not to take seriously. ]

Sorry I didn't come see you, though-- I had a feeling you'd yell at me if I slacked off.
