Alim's dark eyes looked like a starlit sky from the reflection of the torch, the flames dancing within them. It even glinted with a barely suppressed mischief to match his smirk. He had to respect her spirit not being broken for having been captured, though a few weeks in the dungeon will break even the most spirited person. It was a shame, really. This woman seemed like she'd be fun in different circumstances. But alas, that was life.

"If I could, you'd be talking to nobody right now, rather than the dashing man before you" he replied, giving a subtle wink. He ran a hand along the bars of the door idly, shaking his head as if he'd been given a dissatisfying meal. "You'd think older locks would be easier to pick, but the ones on mine must be truly ancient. I'd need the key... or maybe a strong Nord to break them down." He chuckled. Despite his implication of him being weaker, he yanked himself up with a simple tug of his powerful arms, planting his feet atop the bar that capered along the center of the door, and he held himself there like one of the mythical Apeman from Valenwood.

"Alim," he said, replying with his own name. He pronounced his words with emphasis along the syllables as one would expect from someone of his province. Dark, thick hair hung and swayed around his face, cascading off his bare shoulders. "I must admit I am jealous the guards show you such treatment. You have must have done something that caused quite the stir."

T'was worth the wait.

"You!" a gruff voice called. There was a sharp bashing on the bars of the cage, causing Alim to almost jerk out of bed. "You! Redguard!"

"What?" Alim rasped, suddenly realizing just how thirsty he was. His lithe body ached, and in the gloom of the prison he looked even darker in skin than was natural even to his heritage. He sat up, rubbing the back of his neck and opening his sleep-heavy eyes, to see a heavily armed guard staring at him impatiently from the dungeon's hallway, club in his hand.

"You're going to have company. A special guest has graced our dungeon." The Imperial guard declared, eyeing Alim with open contempt. Behind him, a blonde and very striking Nordic woman was led into the cell opposite of Alim. The Redguard tilted his head, curious as to what the big to-do was. "Do keep your mouth shut and stay out of the business of those who come to see her, or we'll see to it your execution is made with a dull axe."

The thief felt his neck and grimaced at the very thought, and gave a nod to the guard. "Worry not, I'm simply a humble thief here to obey," he said, and the guard seemed more than satisfied with that. The armored man turned, and shut the gate behind the Nord, locking it tightly. "Rations will be given to each of you soon. Sit tight, princess." The last word was clearly mocking, and the two guards headed off to continue their rounds within the dungeon, leaving only a scant torch for light between the cells of this particular block.

The young and daring thief had merely told the guards what they had wanted to hear, and once he was certain they were gone, he stepped lightly and carefully over the stones of his cell toward the door, placing his hands on the bars. He peeked down the hallway, and then raised an eyebrow at the Nordic woman now unchained.

"You seemed to have gotten their attention," Alim whispered, curiosity evident on his face.

Online dating...tried it a few times but...basically it works like this. Make profile, get 0-2 messages from people, those you get are usually people you would not be interested in so nothing happens there. You decide to message people, 90% ignore you, 10% maybe send back a message. You finally find someone interesting and start messaging, then they either, miraculously find someone else to date or disappear all together. This is what will happen if you are truthful in your profile unless you are a winner in life, then you'll get a flood of messages from people thinking they have a chance to share in your good fortune.

Unless you are willing for the site itself you match you up with people as a matchmaking service, you're just way better off meeting people in reality and maybe you'll connect with someone. Dating sites are one of the easiest ways to feel like nobody gives a fig about you, avoid unless you are prepared for working really, really hard to find anyone who would even consider meeting you in real life.

I did get a number once, but then they found someone else XD.

@IceHeart

Yeah as harsh as this sounds, it's semi entertaining to watch my friends bungle around in those sites, lol.

Honestly I just don't bother. Girls tend to be interested in me sometimes so I let that happen. I got work, cooking, cleaning, writing short stories, RPing on here, working out, restarting my art, and making a storyboard for a video game. If a girl is interested in me, let her say so and I'll see if I am interested back. I kinda gave up on 'taking initiative' myself awhile ago just from watching my friends, on or offline lol. But yes, I've been very exposed to that kind of stuff on dating sites bc of my pals.

Plus it's online anyway, and most people have really short attention spans online. I don't see why it would be different on a site about dating, you know?

Okay where do you stand on Sapiosexuality?

I mean where do you stand on dating sites in general?

@Dynamo Frokane

I've never used them. My roommates do, or use stuff like tinder. I guess I'm not against online dating because I've had a gf who lived in the UK who I met online, but it wasn't through a dating site and I flew over there to date her regularly anyway. I never actually look for dates or ask anyone out, so putting myself on a dating site kinda seems like...displaying myself for people to pick and choose, and that's not the beginning of any kind of love, imo.

Doing my best not to post memes. I was kinda feeling left out with no one putting me in a category in the thread. White Knight works, actually.

But sure, you want ladies to notice you, sleepingsilence thinks everyone is passive aggressive, ace of hearts wants blood, and fab is trash (ily).

I really just want to talk politics, but we can shitpost some more.

@Dynamo Frokane To be completely honest, I like trolling you because you seem to have some fascination with @Penny noticing you, so you bring up arguments 3 days old ;)

I am actually @Fabricant451 and @POOHEAD189
