It's not a bad photo.

Someone who is apparently a match tried to initiate conversation with me, so I closed the app.

[oldrebellion]

( can you hear the sound of his facepalm? because you really should be able to. )

vergil
you can't close the damn thing down when somebody tries to talk to you
how the hell are you gonna get dates like that

[wrathgrown]

I'm not trying to get dates. You're the one trying to push me into this.

[oldrebellion]

you're not even giving it a chance
your match though
hot?

( AND WE DON'T MEAN TEMPERATURE-WISE, VERGIL. DON'T GO THAT ROUTE. )

[wrathgrown]

If you're that desperate to find out, why don't you date them.

[Just do the hair flippy thing and scowl a lot and surely the person on tinder won't notice the difference.]

[oldrebellion]

( you are one hundred percent useless, you know that? )

i'm not desperate
just curious
come on, i went to all that trouble, you could at least say hi to them

( dante do we even need to tell you how much of a shot in the dark that is. )

[wrathgrown]

[A few minutes' delay, then--]

I said hello to them.

[oldrebellion]

good boy, proud of you
now please tell me you didn't just say hello

( YOU'RE DOING SO WELL ......... )

[wrathgrown]

They said they were happy we matched, and are now asking me all manner of intrusive questions.

[vergil it's called an 'ice breaker']

[oldrebellion]

( please be proud of him, he hasn't started laughing himself stupid yet. he really is proud of you for getting this far. )

let me guess
you consider being asked what kind of movies you like intrusive

[wrathgrown]

Asking me these questions is pointless. To use your example, I haven't seen a movie since we were children.

[oldrebellion]

it isn't pointless when you're trying to get to know someone
and you really need to get out more, man
seriously? not since we were kids?

[wrathgrown]

The demon world is not exactly brimming with human culture.

[it doesn't even have documentaries on how to get more P̟̗͔͙̥̗̹̮̈́͜ O͆̾̽͏̩̟̫̬̮͖ͅ W͖̱̱̉͒͢ E̖̲̓́̚͜ R̥̰̆́́, what a drag]

hey have some old tags bc i suck

[oldrebellion]

( vergil. sit. the mcfuck. down. drink some water or something. you're powerthirsty.

you know. instead of powerhungry ... you're welcome. )

touche
okay okay
this is in no way a date but i'm taking you to a damn movie
and if you think for a second i'm gonna sit through anything with subtitles this ends here

if 4 days is old, half my inbox is an ancient fossil by now

[wrathgrown]

[damn, why you gotta ruin his dreams of watching every single old black and white samurai movie]

I'll let you choose the movie, then.
But if it's trash, I reserve the right to leave at any point.

i mean mine is usually worse than that

[oldrebellion]

( convince him they're worthwhile and maybe he'll think about it. beat some culture into him, or something.

oh wait that's v's job. )

i'm gonna need your definition of trash then
because i'm making absolutely zero promises here

[wrathgrown]

No inane comedies or romances.

[Presumably that also rules out romcoms...?]

[oldrebellion]

( actually trying to picture vergil sitting through a romcom. dying on the inside. there is no better mental image than that. )

what about excessive blood and gore

[wrathgrown]

That is acceptable.
