@StarliHi, I

@Starli

Hi, I've got a quick question for you. I could probably just ask you on the CB rp thread instead of making a whole other thread but… I dunno 

So um you'd mentioned that Ever and Quinn haven't had a lot of one on one time, which I agree with, and I've sort of been coming up with a few ideas for dates they could go on? Not necessarily in the rp, maybe we could do something on AE Diaries or make a chat thread or something, but it could be. I wanted to see what you thought:

- This one's sorta silly, but I thought it might be cute if they went to a roller rink? They both like music and roller rinks have music, so it might be something fun and casual

- They could go to a carnival (if Ever's into that sort of thing?)

- For a less formal version of the classic "go to a restaurant" date, they could try a diner. I've always imagined the town a few AEs (including mine) canonically live near having a cute retro diner

- For more formal dates I have absolutely no idea, especially considering Quinn's never seemed to formal to me? She sort of struggles to take things too seriously, but I think that's why being with Ever is important for her - because Ever's important to her. Aww that got deep but anyway yeah they don't have to have a formal date if you don't want to, maybe they could just go to an AE ball or something one day

- Something with music? Quinn's taste varies, but she mostly she likes a bit of pop and indie pop, as well as 80s-90s rock. They'd be up for any type of music, though, except she doesn't typically like country too much

So uh yeah!! I'm sorry if this was a bit too much, I have a habit of getting excited about things and sort of fixating on them, so just tell me if I need to slow down lol

Ah, yay!!

Thanks for making this thread, I was actually considering making it, too, so this is quite convenient!

We could definitely use the AE diaries thread for a date, that sounds fun. A chat thread is good too- if we do that, we could probably just use this thread. Or maybe this can just be a planning thread for anything regarding them. Whatever you'd like!

-I actually love the idea of a roller rink date for them- I can totally see it. It fits the vibe pretty well, too- just something cute and fun for them to do.

- The diner one is great, too! Instead of dinner, it could even be lunch, somehow that seems even less formal but still super fun. It could be one of those cute 80s-looking diners that they go to in all the movies.

- As for formal- I like the idea they'll go to an AE ball one day. Ever certainly isn't formal either- formality tends to stress him out because it's so not him. If Quinn's into the formal stuff, he'll totally do it! He wants her to be happy and have fun :)

- And music! Ever loves music (he's a drummer, so...). He usually listens to classic rock, maybe some alternative. He doesn't listen to much pop, but he'd try it out. And, don't worry, he doesn't like country either. He actually despises it- he can't STAND it.

So, yeah! Thanks again for making this thread!

Great! Quinn really likes 80s rock but she doesn't get to listen to it much - two of her favorite songs at the moment are You Give Love A Bad Name (Bon Jovi) and Here I Go Again (Whitesnake). They also like alternative rock sometimes, such as Wallows, and a bit of 90s rock too like Weezer. And ofc AJR which is sort of indie pop I think? Idk you know more about them than me, I literally discovered them bc of you XD

But yeah! Uh, she's really up for anything since they like Ever a lot and just wanna have fun with him. I'm really only specifying her taste in music because I feel like it could really be a bonding thing for them! Quinn doesn't know as much music as Ever, but they like to sing and are learning keyboard and music theory.

Yeah that was probably too much time talking about Quinn sorry, I've never done this before (as you probably guessed) XD but um. Maybe we could start with the roller rink date? Or whatever you want! Do you have a preference as to the setting and if it's rp-style or chat-style?

Ever loved 80s-90s rock! Not much Weezer, a little though, like Hash Pipe. He likes anything with a good drum beat. Some of his favorites are R U Mine? by Arctic Monkeys and It's My Life by Bon Jovi. It could also be cute if Ever teaches Quinn an instrument- he pretty much plays all of them (it's his obsession)

A roller rink date to start sounds good! I'd kinda rather just RP it on the AE diaries thread, but whatever you want is good to me! :)

It would be cute if Ever taught Quinn an instrument! We'll have to do that sometime…
But I should stay focused! I'm excited about the roller rink date. Should I start it on AE Diaries?
