meme | #002 -- absolute obedience ( do you do you want to )

[the]

the ABSOLUTE OBEDIENCE MEME 1. Post with your character. 2. That character is compelled to follow the orders of anyone who replies. 3. Any orders. 4. Any orders. Meme Strategy: There's nothing in the rules about whether or not your character knows s/he must obey - as well, the other character might not know that s/he must be obeyed. Play it however you like. Don't like the orders you got? Not willing to have your character follow them, even if you've had a good time up to this point? Talk to the other player, use OOC notes or PMs, try and work it out. Got some stuff you'd never want to play out? Consider making a preferences post and linking to it when you reply here. Wanna give orders that people would love to follow? Give em context. Make it a story. Is this about revenge? Working out some personal issues? Too dumb to realize that the other guy has to do whatever your guy says?

You're something.

[He closes his eyes, holding still, tense but hyperaware.]

[eternaliyah]

Damn straight.

[He doesn't drag it out. Snip snip snip, until the edges are neat and even. He brushes the tips of hair off Magneto's shoulders.]

There, that's much nicer.

[magnetic_magpie]

[At least Daniel is good at dealing with wavy/curly hair. He rakes his fingers through it, shaking it out.]

No mirror, so I'll take your word for it.

[eternaliyah]

Good.

[Not. Sure where to go from here. Damn.]

[magnetic_magpie]

[Neither does he so awkward times are go.]

[eternaliyah]

Uh.

Dance for my amusement?

[so unsure. and kind of sheepish.]

[magnetic_magpie]

I don't know any solo dances.

[...wow. Can't order him to do something he doesn't know. Good.]

[eternaliyah]

[he holds up his hands]

So teach me.

[magnetic_magpie]

What do you know?

[For now, decides against being an ass.]

[eternaliyah]

Mostly just folk dances. Some waltz, some swing. Uh. The twist? I haven't danced in...a while.

[magnetic_magpie]

Neither have I. Most of what I know are Romani.

[eternaliyah]

Stop stalling.

[magnetic_magpie]

Fine.

[He takes Daniel's hands, pulling him close - too close. If Daniel's going to make him do this, he's going to get a lesson on one of the more couply dances.]

Follow my feet.

[eternaliyah]

[Their heights make it a little awkward, but Daniel is nimble enough to adjust quickly - and for the moment, he doesn't mind couply.]

Alright.

[magnetic_magpie]

[He leads Daniel slowly, at first, but faster as he sees Daniel has the hang of it, swinging him around like he weighs far less than he does, making his hips sway.]

[eternaliyah]

[Laughs in surprise and happiness and. Being swung is fun, when it doesn't freak him out. And right now, with Magneto, it really doesn't.]

[magnetic_magpie]

[Okay, this is kind of nice. He keeps spinning them around, teaching while leading - but he's only teaching Daniel the female steps.]

[eternaliyah]

[He grins a bit, but doesn't comment on it.]

[magnetic_magpie]

[Like he cares. This is what demanding entertainment gets you. Be glad he isn't grabbing your ass.]

[ladyaliyah]

[She winks.]

[magnetic_magpie]

[Ok, wait a minute here, suddenly smaller partner, he has to adjust his hands and steps.]

How did you do that?

[ladyaliyah]

Israel is half female.

[magnetic_magpie]

So you can just change?

[He can't stop dancing until he's told to.]

[ladyaliyah]

[still dancing is fine]

It's not really changing. Or it doesn't feel that way to me. I'm always both, I just...turn, and show the other face. I.

[ducks a little, faintly shy]

Almost never do it, actually, but. It seems to suit at the moment.

[magnetic_magpie]

Handy if someone manages to tie you up. Your clothes don't fit now.

[But he'll play with her hair.]
