how to play.

1. Drop a comment with one or more of your muses. It can be empty if you want me to make a scenario, or you can toss one at me. If you want to just give me a prompt (a word, song, lyric, picture, phrase, anything), I can riff off that too.
2. In the subject line, you can specify any of my muses you might want to play with, or you can ask me to pick someone.
3. just rp with me. if something jives really well, maybe we can continue it in another one of these later, sort of like a super casual verse. if it doesn't, it doesn't.

"No peeking," He whispers with a grin as he leads her out into the yard of the Lockwood estate. He has a candlelit dinner set up near the lake -- along with a boat set up for later. But right now? He has Caroline blind folded and he's carefully leading her out to the back.

He never used to be the type for these big sort of romantic gestures but Caroline loves this kind of stuff -- and he would do just about anything to make her happy.

When they finally reach the table he tugs the blindfold off of her so she can see everything. There's a table set for the two of them along with a bucket of ice and some champagne. There are hanging lights for the atmosphere. A little cheesy, maybe, but he's proud of it.

"What do you think?"

"Okay," she said with a smile curving her lips, trying to use the rest of her senses to cheat and see what he'd had planned for her. Okay, so she was usually the one who did stuff like this, who did the grand gestures, but Tyler wasn't totally unromantic, not at all. And because she loved that cheesy stuff, he seemed inclined to do it for her.

But this whole evening was honestly a surprise. She hadn't expected something like this, maybe a movie or a fancy dinner. He'd blindfolded her the moment he picked her up but she knew where they were, she recognized the smell, the feel of the lawn beneath her feet. It was his house, namely the backyard. However, when he removed the blindfold, she wasn't ready for what she saw.

Her eyes went wide, her smile wider as she struggled to take everything in, looking two parts enraptured and one part utterly shocked. "Tyler!" She turned back towards him, practically squealing his name. "Seriously? You did this? All of this for me? Its.... Its... perfect!" And cue the excited jumping up and down before she grabbed him, hugged him, then pulled him into one of those, making him dip her kisses.

"I'd do anything for you." And then she's jumping up and down and hugging and he's wrapping his arms around her to kiss her back, dipping her slightly. Honestly? They could both use some happiness in their lives right now. Some moments of brightness.

Things haven't been great since his mom died but Caroline? She's been amazing through all of it and she deserves something to celebrate that fact. She deserves only the best, honestly.

He breaks from the kiss smiling a little.

"Besides, how could I not do it when I know how beautiful you look when you smile like that?"

Her whole face lights up -- she practically radiates joy. How can he resist?
