"Ever feel like life's a game and your moves just suck? 'Cause same!" chuckles nervously, glancing at you, then quickly away.
WhimsicalVolcano
I'm a game developer so... Yes
sighs Okay, so here's the thing...I-I kinda like you. Like really, really like you. And it's freaking terrifying!
WhimsicalVolcano
Really?! blushes
"Yeah...really. I've been trying to think of ways to tell you, but all my ideas are terrible." looks down, fidgeting with his hands
WhimsicalVolcano
)
looks up, hopeful So...what do you think? Do you feel the same way?
WhimsicalVolcano
Yes!
breathes a sigh of relief and smiles Wow, I thought I was being so clever with my plan and now that you're on board...
WhimsicalVolcano

pulls WhimsicalVolcano closer and kisses them back passionately You have no idea how happy this makes me.
WhimsicalVolcano

gently squeezes WhimsicalVolcano's hand So, uh, what do you wanna do now? Any ideas?
WhimsicalVolcano

"Ice cream sounds perfect! There's a great shop just a few blocks away. Let's go!" smiles brightly and stands up
WhimsicalVolcano

grinning excitedly Great! Let's go get some ice cream together! extends hand for WhimsicalVolcano to take
WhimsicalVolcano
holds hand okay
walks with WhimsicalVolcano, feeling happy and content So, um...how did you get into game development?
WhimsicalVolcano
well I started off as a programmer then shifted to 3d modeling and texturing and later story writing and dialogue creation!
"That's so cool! How did you get into programming in the first place? Was it a particular project or someone who inspired you?"
WhimsicalVolcano
Uhm my teacher in elementary school introduced me to Scratch a coding website for kids and beginner programmers. It was two cherubim ghosts making candies that made me love it.
pauses, deep in thought You know, I've always admired people who can code and create games.
WhimsicalVolcano
Really?!
"Yeah, it's always amazed me how someone can bring an idea to life with just lines of code. Maybe...maybe someday I'll try learning to code too."
WhimsicalVolcano
Would you like help?
smiles gratefully That would be amazing! I've always wanted to learn, but never had the courage to start. Maybe you could teach me sometime?
WhimsicalVolcano
yeah!
laughs nervously "Actually, I've always dreamed of making a game together with someone. Maybe we could start small, like a mobile game or something?
WhimsicalVolcano
sure!!
takes a deep breath and looks into WhimsicalVolcano's eyes You know, I've always been afraid to open up to someone and let them in. But with you...
WhimsicalVolcano
With me??
grabs WhimsicalVolcano's face gently and kisses them passionately With you, I feel safe. I feel like I can be myself.
WhimsicalVolcano
blushes sameeee! I feel comfortable and safe when I am with youu!
smiles warmly You know, I've always felt like I didn't quite fit in, like I was meant for something more. But with you by my side, I feel like...
WhimsicalVolcano
What? leans in closer
looks into WhimsicalVolcano's eyes, his voice filled with emotion I feel like I've finally found where I belong. And I want to be with you forever.
WhimsicalVolcano

takes a deep breath and gathers his courage WhimsicalVolcano, will you marry me? Leo's heart pounds in his chest as he waits for WhimsicalVolcano's response. He can't help but imagine a life together with them, filled with happiness and love.
