All right, here's a poll I've been postponing. Raise your hand if you've at some point in your lives - long or short - felt a dangerous and inexplicable attraction towards the tall, dark, and handsome. I'm very keen to note whether it's one of those disorders that affect people regardless of gender, or not.

Bonus points will be given if they solve their problems with fire, or are emotional walls.

I'll start - yes.

video; she will private this charles if you start being nosy.

[ex_shiftings982]

Just when I think this place is going to be boring.

video; charles don't look

[brobeforehos]

I refuse to let that happen. But I'm pretty certain so would the City.

[recognize_an_opportunity]

From what I've gathered, it's a common affliction.

[brobeforehos]

A trend that never goes out of style. Like suits.

[unwheeled]

What if I saved you the trouble and reassured you that it affects everyone across all gender spectrums?

voice;

[brobeforehos]

I would feel very reassured, Professor, but a poll is a poll.

[onsets]

I suppose you mean this is a bad thing.

voice;

[brobeforehos]

[A pause.] I think it depends.

Feeling attracted to someone, for whatever reason, isn't something I think should be considered a bad thing or condemned.

Unless that someone does bad things, to you.

[infernoandhearth]

I've never seen it as a problem, personally, let alone one to be solved with fire.

[brobeforehos]

I didn't mean that the attraction should be solved with fire - unles metaphorically. And even that's not everyone's cup of tea.

[charring]

That's not usually the type of thing I'd solve with fire. Unless tall, dark and handsome was also out to get me. Then, fire might be involved.

Now, spill. Who's your tall, dark and handsome?

[brobeforehos]

No-one! Would you believe me if I told you Stiles caused this with his post? And indirectly, by which I mean that it's not Stiles.

[hexuality]

Of course.

[Does Tom Riddle count or is that too fucked up for this survey?]

[brobeforehos]

[It's Tom, he's too fucked for any survey.]

I had hopes you'd outsmart it, Ginny. If anyone could.

[seriousheat]

Tall, dark and pretty, tall, blonde and pretty, short, dark and pretty... Sure.

[ A pause, and he turns a little more serious: ] The fire thing doesn't sound good, though.

[brobeforehos]

[So congratulations on your active romantic life, stranger guy.] Unless a metaphor for passion, it never is.

[Leah just raises her hand. Sure, Loki isn't tall, but he's dark and emotionally walled. Daimon was tall, however, and enticingly shirtless.]

[brobeforehos]

[Oh, those are good.]

That's the first actual raised hand after me.

[candothat]

Does it count if she was tall only in relation to me? I would not want to skew your results if it doesn't.

[brobeforehos]

It counts if you think it counts, Pavel.

[intheblanks]

Tall and dark are overrated.

[brobeforehos]

Is that a yes or a no, though?

[fuckyeahloki]

I shall answer your question if you answer mine: does your poll serve a purpose or is it only to indulge in idle curiosity?

video

[brobeforehos]

The latter.

[brobeforehos]
