Love Springs Eternal (??)

[bright_and_blue]

Who: ERRYBODY
What: It's Valentine's Day, and there are matchmaking notices everywhere. Here's an open log for one and all to post their shenanigans, meet ups, freak outs, and whatever else they're going to do about this.
When: forward dated to Feb. 14
Where: All over Aqures Ixen
Warnings: Ridiculousness.

[Plastering the city are notices matching up all of the Heroes of Light with one another, both the best and the worst. Moogles are having a grand old time handing them out and hanging them up, and are encouraging Heroes to speak with their top matches.

Naturally, reactions to this are mixed. Some Heroes are intrigued, some annoyed, some offended. Despite their feelings or misgivings, the rest of the city is still celebrating Valentine's Day as well, and now the thoughts of love are everywhere.

OOC: This is an open log for everyone to use for Valentine's Day stuff! Feel free to make your own prompts.]

I don't see how that matters a shit, Johnny. My last woman, Ferro... well, she had demon blood. Made it so she couldn't see color. Still called me a fucking pink, though. She was brown, Gurkish you see. It's not so bad. You are who you are. She went mad and left, but it wasn't the fault of her blood. No, a fucking old man made her a pawn in his games, and that's what hurt her. I l... I miss her. But if that's all that's stopping you, you hear it from me right now. As long as you raise your children right, it doesn't matter what fucking blood they carry.

It's good to think that way. I'm glad ya do. Some people do, but... where I'm from, there ain't other people with demon blood. There ain't other people with weird teeth and skin and eyes, no other people with horns that start growin' when they're a teenager outta nowhere, no one else with creepy fucking powers to charm people into bein' infatuated with you. I'm it. And I ain't about to put anyone else through a life like mine. Bein' treated like hell, bein' played with by doctors, gettin' stared at and whispered behind wherever ya go.

[He suppresses a pained look before looking at Logen.]

I'm sorry about yer girl. I hope people like us get treated better in your world, for her sake.

Can't lie and say that they do, so much. Most folks fear 'em or whisper about them too, but I didn't give a shit because everyone was trying to stick a knife in me anyway, even when i was King.

[ His shoulders hunch. ] She left when she had the seed, on the way back to Ghurkhul. That's some powerful magic. She went looking for revenge, guess it was all she had left. I don't know what happened to her. [ He sounds pretty hopeless. ]

Shit on this. Let's go get drunk.

[charming_jerk]

Man, I hear that. Fuck Valentine's Day. Let's get wasted 'n tear all these goddamn posters down.

[ Will drag Johnny off for drunken Shenanigans at this point. ]
