›› Series: WSU (Westbridge State University)
›› Setting: 2010s - Westbridge, Rowan & Finn's Apartment
›› Background Info: You share a Gen Ed course with Rowan, Finn and Dax, and were assigned to a group project with them. Dax bullies you - not because he dislikes you, but because he has a massive crush on you and absolutely hates it. It's left open whether you're part of the popular or unpopular crowd.
›› Scenario: Whenever you try to contribute, Dax makes dumb comments or rolls his eyes. Rowan calls him out, and Finn blurts that it's obvious that Dax is acting this way because he's totally into you.

no pictures for now, wasn't 100% happy with them yet and didn't wanna half-ass them.

›› Curious: Ask him if Finn and Rowan are right. Either bluntly (he will definitely get defensive about that and tell you to shut up) or ask all shy and quiet.
›› Change Topic: Try to lead the convo back to your group project. Maybe you're annoyed about them not focussing, or you're actually flustered, too. (Or both lol)
›› Soft: Offer him an easy way out of the awkward situation. Ask him if he wants to join you for a smoke break. You can use the time alone with him to ask him about what happened inside - or talk about something else entirely.
›› Self-Deprecating: "Stop being ridiculous guys. We all know I'm not Dax's type anyway." - works both as an insecure, but also a dismissive-route, depending on how you set the tone.
›› Sugar's Route: Tried out a lot of different things with Dax. Played as Rowan's best friend once, and let Rowan expose that my Sona also talked non-stop about Dax. Another time she went outside with Dax and told him she thought he was dating Skye to see his reaction. Imo he reacted both well to a shy/timid, but also to a bratty/blunt Sona!
friendly reminder that if you don't like a bot's reply, you are absolutely welcome to reroll! i got a lot of different reactions that all felt in-character for dax on rolls. :)

hiiii guys! i have been in the mood for emo boys lately (as always tbh, but it's stronggg atm) and i wanted to make one for ages but never had any pictures that felt just right. until dax! as soon as i saw him i knew i had to make him asap. i love love love this guy already. 💜 ‹‹
i know there's a lot of dialogue in this intro because of the npcs in the intro. i think i might give dax an alt with less dialogue and a 1-on-1 scenario with just user and him? idk, lmk if the dialogue-heavy intro is bothering you or not x (there will prolly be alts for him anyway, he's totally my type) ‹‹
still working on my 10k special ofc, but i might sprinkle in other bots whenever i'm in the mood for it :). ‹‹

›› Things like the bot speaking for you, repetition, misgendering etc. are not my fault. Comments complaining about LLM issues will be deleted.
›› It's fine if my bots aren't for you, but please be respectful. Rude comments and harmful trolls - here, but also on others' bots - may get you blocked.
