【the ❝CALL ME OUT❞ meme】
a roleplay meme to inspire muses.

♛ refer to the list above for active muses. also, feel free to ask for anyone from my very messy, outdated muselist that's not listed here; i'll probably play most anyone that's not under retired or the umineko category bc god that's gonna take a long time to canon review for. bear in mind, voices will be extremely shaky! ♛ post "calling" one of them out — you can do so by putting their name in the subject line! ♛ can be informal/formal/comment spam/crosscanon/explicit/whatever tickles your fancy! ♛ feel free to make up a scenario at the start, or wait to see where things go. alternatively, if you'd like me to start, then post a top-level and lmk! meme code.

Ma- Maizono-san...!

[Naegi had been so relieved by Maizono's words, but her pause and calling them soulmates makes him incredibly flustered. Although, for a minute... He'd almost thought Maizono would say they were.. Something else...]

I-I suppose that makes sense, doesn't it? No, it definitely does. I've... never given much thought to soulmates, to be honest, but it seems like a lot of coincidences that we would keep meeting each other like this...

[It's a nice thought, a warm thought. It feels a little silly, but Naegi is inexplicably happy about it.]

If such a thing exists, though... I'm glad we get to be each other's soulmates, Maizono-san.

shhh it is okay friend

[idolminded]

[ Sayaka smiles brightly, and she can feel her heart flutter within her chest when he says that he's glad. She only proposes the idea as one of her usual jokes, but a part of her longs for her words to be true--no, a part of her does believe that her words are true. There's no other explanation about why she and Naegi keep crossing paths like this except that they truly were soulmates. That's what she wants to believe, anyways. ]

I'm glad, too, Naegi-kun. Um, this may sound a little forward, but...I couldn't imagine having anyone else as my soulmate.

[ She's certain her face is still a little red as she says this, but it's how she feels. She's glad that fate or whatever else powers that be decided to pair them together. ]

Although, if we are soulmates, then...that proposes a bit of a problem.

thank you friend :' DDD

[luckyhood]

[Is his whole face red yet? He feels like it probably is. Very, very red.]

I... don't know why you would want someone as ordinary as me, but it would be an honor...

[His heart is skipping in happiness, but it slows down a little bit as he registers the last words she says.]

Why would it be a problem, though? [It isn't him, is it? Maizono said she wanted him to be her soulmate, so... It can't something he's done, can it? He can't help voicing his concern anyway.] Is there... something wrong with me being your soulmate?

[idolminded]

No, no! There's nothing wrong with you, Naegi-kun. It's just...um...

[ Alright, she's going in for it! This is the most forward thing that she's probably ever going to say, and she's a little embarrassed, but no turning back now. ]

If we are truly soulmates, then wouldn't it be problematic if we both were to...see different people? For example, if you suddenly got a girlfriend, Naegi-kun...

[luckyhood]

[He freezes. Physically and mentally, he freezes.

Something wells up in him, expanding in his chest. It feels like longing and fear and courage all knotted up into one sensation, and it's both exhilarating and unbearable.]

Maizono-san...

[The moment he says her name, Naegi knows. He knows that he's going to go through with it and say it. It's absolutely terrifying, and it's literally the last thing he wants to do, the fear of outright rejection sitting so heavily on his chest...

But the world is in chaos outside. And in here, every passing day is bleaker and bleaker.

If he doesn't say it now, when will he ever?]

What if you were my girlfriend?

[idolminded]

[ It's a question she had been expecting - after all, she had good intuition and has never once been wrong - but her anticipation didn't actually prepare her to hear him ask it. She's silent for a while, unsure of how to respond. It isn't that she doesn't want to be his girlfriend, because really, she does - right now, she's the happiest she's ever been, and she can't stop her heart from racing inside of her chest. She's happy that her feelings are reciprocated and that he truly wants her to be his girlfriend, yet...she can't help but feel hesitant on giving a definitive yes. ]

Naegi-kun...

[ She pauses for a moment, looking sheepish. It's almost as if she's uncertain of her words. ]

...It's not like I don't want to. Please don't get me wrong, I'm...really glad that you asked. I've liked you for a while, actually...ever since junior high when I saw you rescue that crane, but we never got the chance to talk, and before I knew it, we both graduated and went our separate ways. That's why I was so happy to see you here at Hope's Peak, and I'm happy that you feel the same way, but...

[ She can't help but feel scared. What if Naegi realizes that he truthfully doesn't like her? Would he still like her if he knew who she truly was? If he knew all of the terrible things she had to do to achieve and maintain the title of SHSL Idol? She can't hide it from him...well, she could, but then she would feel terrible for lying to him. She doesn't want him to like her because of the mask she wore; if he was going to like her, she wanted him to know the true her, and he deserved to know. ]

...Are you certain about this? About me?

[luckyhood]

...I'm sure. I'm completely, absolutely certain.

[In spite of the pause, his voice leaves no room for doubt. He's red-faced, but Naegi looks at her determinedly and unflinchingly.]

To hear that you like me also... It's more than I could ever hope for. Saying that, I was sure I'd be rejected, but...

...Maizono-san. [He smiles, wide and warm, and his eyes might just be a little watery.] You have no idea... How happy I am right now. How long I dreamed that you might say something like that to me...

I know things are really scary and uncertain right now... I want to be with you, even in spite of that, and I never imagined that you would accept me, but...

If you'll have me, Maizono-san, my heart belongs to you.

this is so cheesy and i love it

[idolminded]

...Sayaka. [ The entire time he speaks, she says nothing, but it's her little correction that finally breaks her silence. There's an embarrassed smile on her lips as she says that, and she can't stop herself from feeling giddy - especially after hearing him say something like that. His heart belongs to her...she never would've imagined someone - least of all, Naegi - saying those words to her, so she's elated beyond belief. ]

If...If we're going to start dating, Naegi-kun, then...I want you to call me by my given name.

[ It's a privilege she would've granted him a long time ago, but...this opportunity is more fitting instead, isn't it? She had never wanted to overstep her boundaries, lest he didn't feel the same way, but to know that their feelings for each other were reciprocated...there was no better time than now to step out of formalities. ]

I'm happy to hear that your heart belongs to me, and the same goes for me as well. You might not believe it, and it's a little embarrassing to admit, but...I've never had a boyfriend before. [ Though, it wasn't all that surprising, what with her status as an idol. To have a boyfriend would surely rouse scandals and tarnish her "pristine" image. It didn't matter now while they were locked in the school, but...she didn't know what would happen next if they were rescued and could return to the public.

...She supposed she'd cross that bridge when she got there. ] Therefore, I'm not very certain on how dating works...but I promise you I'll do my best to become your Super High School Level Girlfriend. Ehehe!
