The TL;CR Meme

♥ one: post with your characters.
♠ two: respond to other people's characters with your characters.
♦ three: they tell you in detail what their character thinks of your character. TL;DR is encouraged; that's how this works.
♣ four; optional: discuss it with them if you want! Make a big chain of tl;dr if you're up to it.
♥ five: other people do the same thing to you! Maybe you even harvest your tl;dr to use in a CR chart later.
♠ six: keep checking back in so that no one is ever late!

(Shamelessly gakked from places.)

Touché.

~~Fine, okay. You win this time.~~

So I should probably start by saying that for all my joking about it, all my talk of Dave's feelings on Naminé is purely speculation? Because as of right now, she's just a really nice girl he can sit down with, listen to jams, and be an utter dork and it's kind of nice because it's also pretty relaxing and... honestly, Dave can go either way, whether he could start developing a crush on her, or just wanting to be friends? ~~Even though I'm pretty sure I know where it's going, I don't like to corner myself.~~ Anyway.

With that in mind, let's assume for a moment that by some twist of fate all our OOC knowledge became IC knowledge. Like, major feelings jams and maybe a couple of ministrifes, idefk. But all our junk is now just hanging out there, catching the breeze, how are you today guys?

He'd pretty much know right off the bat what sort of effect Naminé would have on Davesprite, because. Well. /gestures. Duh. And he would pretty much back away, because seriously? If it's really easy to relax, and be an utter dork, and not care so much about posturing and looking cool (even though he does still want to be cool for Naminé) for him, he'd want Davesprite to have something like that too? Because when it comes down to it, the dude needs it way more than Dave does.

~~Also, he is so not fighting you for the attentions of a girl. Because that's just stupid. That would just end in catastrophe of obscene proportions.~~

He'd never stop being Naminé's friend, because she's Naminé, and she's cool as shit, but he would pretty much insist that Davesprite ascend the friend-ladder here.

So basically, what I'm saying is, he'd probably do the same thing that Davesprite would do... except instead of avoiding her he would pull some strings and bring them together with AJ, nachos, comics, and sweet jams.

Which makes him not a douche, but a wingman, ironically.

(Haha get it? Wingman?)

Davesprite stands by the fact that Dave is a douche and a gargantuan one.

(YOUR PUNS ARE WEAK. Davesprite remains immune.)

He knows (maybe only vaguely, but the general sense is there) what would happen if they ever liked the same girl. Hell, it's a scenario that is unmercifully plausible in its likelihood and actually contributed to his behavior towards Terezi, because he refuses to like her, ever. Not even as a friend at this point.

I mean, he doesn't perceive Dave as having a crush on Naminé or whatever right now. But he's at a point where he can pick up warning signs and that's kind of why he's actively destroying any positive effect she might have on him? No matter what, Dave was first.

Also, Davesprite refuses to date anyone ever again. He's good as dead and Asgard lacks a sense of permanence. It was bad enough with Jade, back when he thought maybe there was a loophole or something (or maybe he was just a stupid birdsprite with a crush), and he will not do that to someone ever again.

...Man, now I'm trying to figure out if someone trying to set him up would actually make him angry. Depends on the scenario.

Does this make you a gargantuan douche of the orange and feathery variety?

Man, really? What if she just wanted to be friends with both of them? Like, it takes two to tango, you know, and if one is tangoing while the other is zumbaing, all they are doing is dancing, not dancing togther.

.... fuck I don't know where I was going with that thought. Anyway.

Yeah, no, Dave is utterly oblivious to (the possibility of) it. Mostly because it's already really fucking messy with Tz right now (and that's a whoooooooooooooole other can of worms) and partly because of Asgard's sense of permanence (or lack thereof). And really, he's hopping on the no-dating bandwagon once him and Tz are over. Fuck relationships. So it probably wouldn't matter anyway?

But still. You really have to stop being so hard on yourself dude. It kills him.

~~Because it's like watching himself sometimes?~~

It probably does.

And jeez, dude, it isn't as simple as her wanting to be friends with both of them. Otherwise, hanging out with Jade and John would be a non-issue. I think a lot of Davesprite's issues were exacerbated by John, though, given how much influence he's always exerted over Dave. So when your best friend basically denies your existence...it gets complicated. Rose is maybe the only kid he wouldn't completely cut ties with (and only if she outright said something along the lines of don't you dare leave me behind) and that's because he still feels super responsible, especially if he finds out about the alcoholism. He never did get over leaving her behind in the dead-end timeline.

When he resurrects, he's going to the library just because it reminds him of her and he's going to find the worst book of wizard shit and steal it. Not even read it, just steal it and leave it in his room somewhere.

He's so hideously self-destructive and, while I don't think he realizes how destructive he is (and why it's hilarious he side-eyed Kanaya and Draco so much during the dream event), it is part of why he avoids a lot of direct interaction with Dave. Because he can spot something is wrong, even if he's not sure what.

idk, at least he'd never resort to hurting himself physically. He takes all his anger and self-loathing out in ways that he just. Kind of subconsciously maneuvers into being really bad for himself. Which is why he's going to get killed by the Condesce, especially if he knows Dirk's dead.

Speaking of Dirk, though, Davesprite is locating Dave asap, if/when he finds out about it. To just quietly chill and watch each other's backs until they get split up by accident and end up dying. God, the levels of Strider incompetence this time around are unreal.

Again, too lazy to log out.

You know what's funny? What's funny is that.... even if Dave knew exactly how self-destructive Davesprite is, he still wouldn't draw attention to it. I think that is in part why he did defend him in that strife log. When Dirk mentioned how Davesprite had been avoiding them, Dave entirely avoided talking about it. It's like... I don't know. Some secret handshake sort of deal. Cigar club, bitches.

Oh god, yes. That. If Dave were the first to discover it, you can bet he's locating Davesprite as soon as fucking possible. Watch each other's backs, yes. Until Davesprite goes and gets himself killed.

Jesus Christ, dudes.

Too many feathery assholes up in this thread.

I think that makes sense, though? They're very private guys, so I could see them not wanting to discuss it. Though it does extend, in Davesprite's case, to him not wanting to shove that on Dave. He already feels like he kind of dropped the responsibility of timeline management on him and bailed.

I'm not sure how it'll play out yet, but Dave probably just won't be able to find Davesprite at all when the last log rolls around. So idk, he can draw his own conclusions from there. Though now that I think about it, I have no idea if John or Roxy will be there. idk who else by way of important I-am-overprotective-of-you CR is going beyond Naminé and Terezi for Dave.
