Question meme

[ironicusername]

Question meme since Dirk is almost at 1000 and it has absolutely been a month since the last one you don't need to fact check me on this.

Primarily for Dirk Strider/Ruby Twinkle and Yuri Lowell.

And anyone else I play.

Oh right appearance update and some general info on mannerisms for Dirk.

/PUNCHES Go pick up the post-game thread with the orange sweaters Dirk needs to ask you a very important question about WHETHER DAVE IS DEAD BACK HOME. Also it is a pretty important formative thread re: Dirk's opinion!!

But I'll do my best in the mean time: Rose is someone Dirk knows was close to his bro so he was automatically curious about her. Her immediate suspicion and rejection hurt, but he could rationalize the feeling behind it so it was kind of... ok.

Post-game obviously Dirk was approaching Rose prepared to have to get into a fight, or even make some concessions, because FRANKLY he wanted to ask about his bro and Rose was the prime candidate! And he was expecting her to chew him out. Instead she was whipping out ALL KINDS of mad subtleties and throwing him off his guard and it kind of turned him on! Not in the sexual sense but the intellectual one. He was like whoa 8D THIS GIRL HAS SOME SKILLS I LIKE IT of course my bro would only hang out with WICKED PREMIUM BITCHES. So: Rose, you're pretty sweet, let's hang.

Reverse!

OKAY I DID THE THING!!!

Dirk came at what was probably the worst possible time -- Dave had just left the day before, that day she had just finished taking what is arguably one of the most significant memories she has in canon (aside from Cascade, I'd say) and it totally devastated her. And then there's ANOTHER PERSON WHO LOOKS TOTALLY LIKE DAVE but he's not dave, he's older and cooler and not as dopey or fun to tease, and that...made her really upset! Like oh hey the Aather gods are laughing at my grief yay go me.

But she actually, now that she's talked to him more, thinks that he's really insightful and fun to play around with intellectually -- and she enjoys a good intellectual sparring as much as the next person! So once she got past that she actually doesn't mind him so much.
