swipes: a friendr meme

Any new arrival to the city has seen the ad for a free app popping up on their devices, and anyone who's been around for a while probably has a profile and has used it a bit. It's almost universal in the city - Friendr, a friend-finder and/or dating app. If characters choose to install it, they will fill out a short bio and parameters for what they're looking for, upload a snap of themselves, and then proceed to browse for matches. This is a typical swipe-left-or-right type app. The default color scheme can be seen below, but the Friendr app has a wide variety of themes, so feel free to customize with colors and patterns as you see fit, but do not remove the credit line out of respect for the creator of the code.

» Age: your character's age

[ The most innocent lift of those silver brows. ]

Why would I need to swipe right? We literally live together.

To be supportive, obviously.

Supportive of what?

I dunno, of your boyfriend? Who you love? And you admitted it aloud with words and there are no take-backs?

Considering you have all of that already, I don't think you need me to swipe right on an app.

[ Look how she's not even trying to brush off the whole part where she told him she loved him. ]

It's the principle of the thing. It's a nice little reminder and concrete confirmation!

[ He needs a nice little reminder?

Then she's just going to get up off of the couch and go right over to give him a kiss. ]

[ When she approaches where he sits at the kitchen table, he eyes her suspiciously, like he's expecting her to snatch the comm out of his hand or dumping his drink in his lap. (Not that she tends to do those types of things, but because he used to hang out with some serious turds who absolutely would have offered him that kind of treatment.)

But when she kisses him, he stiffens briefly with surprise before slowly relaxing into it.

... okay. Well. This is acceptable, he guesses. ]

[ She lets the kiss linger and drag on, her palms planted on the table surface as she leans over him. She doesn't go far when their lips part, murmuring instead, ]

Is that enough of a reminder?

[ He takes a long moment to look thoughtful, eyebrows knit together and mouth twisted to one side.

He makes an uncertain sort of noise, expression pinching a little. ]

I mean, it's a start?

Mm, just a start?

[ This is clearly not the kind of reminder she's bothered giving, because she leans in for another kiss. ]

A start.

[ And he echoes it back with a crooked little smile. And, hey, his dumb little joke has the intended effect of earning him another kiss, which may mean that he's learning the wrong lesson, here, but who cares!

Kissing!

He covers her hand with his, and when he pulls back, he puts on another pensive look. ]

That was better. But, you know how I am. Memory of a goldfish.

I might need another reminder in, like, five? Ten seconds?

[ She tilts her head back and forth for a moment, like she's ticking off the time— ]

Five seconds.

[ Oh, look, another kiss.

She allows that to last five proper seconds, pausing only briefly before she presses in for a longer kiss, dragging it on for at least ten whole seconds with the movement of her lips against his, a flicker of tongue. ]

[ He nearly barks out a laugh when she takes him at his word, but— that would interrupt this. Which is a party foul, Peter expects, and this really isn't a funny situation.

This is very serious, he reminds himself. This is very serious and important and he shouldn't interrupt, because that would be rude.

When they pull back this time, his smile is a little softer, a little more genuine. ]

You know I love you, right?

[ She reaches up with her free hand to cup his face – another easy point of contact. ]

You've mentioned it.

[ But she knows. With every part of herself, she knows and trusts that Peter loves her, and it's as comforting as it is unnerving sometimes. ]

[ He lets out a soft, acknowledging hum, that soft smile still on his face.

Then, ]

I would've swiped right for you.

[ Peter Jason Quill: Professional Moment Ruiner. ]

[ And just for that...

She bites his bottom lip.

(Not hard, but definitely a reprimand.) ]

[ Even if it's not all that hard, there's nothing stopping Peter from acting like it is.

Which is why he lets out a hiss, pulling back a little. ]

Hey. Use your words, not your teeth.

Not my teeth?

[ Because now she's absolutely going to lean in again to nip ever so lightly at his jaw.

Just to mess with him. ]

[ ... Okay. That's just unfair. ]

C'mon. You know what I meant.

Maybe you should be clearer.

[ Yep, nibbling on his earlobe. ]

I meant—

[ No, hang on, that's kind of nice.

—no, wait. Don't be swayed, Quill. You can't let this work every time. ]

—I meant, you can't try to bite my lip off every time I have a point.

Do I do that?

[ Playing so innocent now.

Hello, sensitive spot behind Peter's ear. She'll just ever so gently drag her tongue right there. ]

Obvi—

[ —no, hang on, okay, that’s definitely throwing him off his groove, and he lets out a small sound, half-startled, half-pleased, and—

He puts on an overblown expression of annoyance, with a tone of voice to match. ]

I am trying to have a conversation with you, you know.

[ Though his complaint is categorically belied by the way his head tilts, giving her more room to maneuver. ]

Am I stopping you?

[ Because she's pretty sure she's giving him all the opportunity in the world to talk. ]

I'm not covering your mouth.

[ But she is taking advantage of that extra room, kissing slowly down his pulse, scraping her teeth lightly to drop a kiss just above the collar of his shirt. ]
